The young Nan was _immediately conveyed home, and is now in a fair way of recovery. MAIL ROBBERY.—A desperate mail robbery was per petrated near Kells, on Saturday se'nnight, when the post-boy, who had been dispatched from the General Post Office 'for Ballyborough and Moynalty, was at tacked near Kells, and robbed by two armed men of the entire mail, as'well as the bye letters for the latter town. Intimation of this outrage has been tnAde by Sir Edward Lees to the Magistrate of Police. • Friday st'nnight, about seven in the morning, that inimense ridge called the Dripping;Ciaig, about two lumdred yards from the east side of the pier at-Wemygs in Fife, which the sea been long underMiding, fell with a tremendous crash, the poise.of whiCh exceeded that of the loudest thunder; and Made the terrified iu habitants start from their sleep, under the impression that some awful convulsion of nature had taken place. By this disruption, a considerable number of trees, which grew on the summit, Were precipitated to the beach, along with an immense .quantity of stone, of which it is supposed that many of the . masses cannot be less than from five to six tons in Weight, 'VAR.—The time has been when warlike rumours, such as have been in :circulatiost fot some time, would have caused a depression in the Funds of Two or Three per Cent. So great, howevefi is the immense Capital in the hands of the Monied lutelest, that these turniguri have not had the slightest effect.— Stocks continue rising, and'a further advance is looked to by the Bulls, who, no way alarmed, have increased their accounts. In the New Lottery, too, some large purchases have been made within these few days. The Scheme is highly approved—which could not fail tgi be the Case, when it is seen that the Contracting bare• conuived to give to Adventurers the Chance •or Sevens Prizes of £20,000, Two of which will fall to the Two First Prizes the First Day (the 19th F e b ruary ) when; infact , all the Tickets drawn will be Prizes.

'-• ~= CW - M64,-A% " PURVIZR PACTICUL4BS .4.10 Inorder to prepare his defence, Thurtell first pro cured such books ai wets . .inely to aid. hial , in compa r ing his address, particularly. the public ,speeches of Mr. Charles Phi Rarrister r and laving arranged and reduced his defences to a writtentorm,lse lost no time ip learaing it by heart, and then_ practised its recitation., *His rehearsal's wete,perfo;med in the night, and before he commenced. he placed. Randall, a fellow-prisoner, who was a sort of companion or' guard with him for the night, to. act as Judge; he next selected a part of the room which was supposed to be the Jury, and then went through the whole of his speech, to the no small asto nishment and surprise of Randall, who, being through (out the day in the same yard as .Hunt, frequently .tole him that Mr. Thurtell would make such a fine speech as was never before heard, and which -would be sure to. get him off, adding, "Mr. Thurtell is only sorry I can't read, because then I could hold the paper, and see whe 'ther he spoke it correct to a word." In the early part of the business, and while Hunt was expected to be a witness, Thurtell expressed his disgust at his pusillanimous conduct, but when Thurtell found . that he was rejected, and that Probert had consented to give evidence, his indignation was greatly aroused Hainst the latter, and he appeared to commiserate unt, saying, he readily forgave him, because he owed him no obligations ; . but he could not forgive the rascal Probert, whose family, as. well as himself; he had supported. At Christmak, Mr. Wilson had some friends spendin the evening with him, and Hunt, to entertain them, vo luntarily sung. a plaintive song; Thurtell who was in a 'room beneath Hunt, joined in the applause bestowed upon the singer, and in a friendly tone, called out, " Joseph !" and on Hunt asking what he.wanted, Tiro r lel replied, " I will thank you,-Joe, to give me my old favourite; you know what I mean." Hunt immediately complied ; the song was Look Out ; or, Old Con well the Pilot, and at it, conclusion Thurtell expressed his thanks, and clapped his hands for some time in token of approval. During the first day of the trial, Hunt, whenever be could get an opportunity of speaking to Mr. Harmer, his Solicitor, anxiously inquired how the case was going on, and in the early part of the day, the notes which he sent to his Counsel, suggesting questions, or observ ing on the evidence, were confused, and ill written, but as the case proceeded his suggestions were much more, intelligible, and better written. • A, the conclusion of the first day's proceedings Thur tell and Hunt were brought back in the same carriage to the prison, when Hunt thus addressed Thurtell :- 44 Why,l was told you were to make a fine long speech, but you have scarcely said a word, and what little 'you did say was spoken in such a manner that no one could. scarcely hear or understand you, and I do not think. you will be able to make any speech worth hearing." Where upon Thurtell said ; 4 ' Wait till to-morrow, my boy, and hear me, before you give your opinion, and only: see it I don't astonish you. " It was remarked by one that his address to the Court and Jury was very powerful . and energetic, not only as to its composition, but its delivery; and Thurtell frankly avowed, that he had compiled-it from various sources, and said, " What did you think of the conclusion, was it not very fine?" and being answered in the affirmative, he said, - 4 1 that I took principally from Phillips's speeches; it is in the defence he wrote for Turner, the Bank clerk." Thurtell heard some one remark that the worst man of the three had escaped punishment alto gether, and he directly said, with great emphasis, " would rather suffer death twenty times over, than be Probert and live!" and he particularly ridiculed the idea of Prohert's evidence being true as to his having stated that Weare had nearly got the better of him ; for, said he, " Weare was a very little man, and to think it pos sible that such a person could get the better of me, is all nonsense." &friend of Thurtell's observed . ,-." At all! events you cannot be accused of betraying pour com.: l panions. " No," replied the prisoner,. with marked ex- . pression, " before any one could have got tire secret from me, he must have torn my heart frorri my breast." His friend, thinking, perhaps, this observation rather too strongly implied an admission of his guilt, and appa- - iently wishing him to alter its import in that respect, said, " You mean if you had been concernea." .Thurtell answered, " Yes, of course." He inveighed with much bitterness against one of the' witnesses, to whose.testi ony alone, he said, he should attribute his conviction, rn 4hejury found him guilty ; and he, with great inge tA;sity . pninted out the - improbability of his evidence being true, ftom` the'relative situations which:the wit tress described himself and him (Morten) to be in when he undertook to speak to the fact deposed te.. On the night of the first day's adjournment of the tria4'he became struck with the force of some of the de tails that were urged in evidence against him at the close of the prosecution. He appeared to have had no idea'that his identity could have been so clearly established in eVidence. The night was dark, and there was no moon at the hour: but 'the passing' at the mo ment of the stage-coach with lights, as Clarke stood at one side of the road, while Thurtell drove his gig at the other, afforded, under all the circumstances, an almost miraculous opportunity for recognition which he never anticipated. The moment of his removal, after con demnation, to the jail, he, after a few general remarks upon the evidence,' abandoned all intention of speaking, a•word more upon the subject, an intention to which he adhered. He was at all times cool and collected, but his fortitude seemed the result of natural courage; his Mind was never, until the very near approach of his trial, sufficiently plastic to receive the impression, that whatever view he might take of the course that became him in meeting the particular crime laid to his charge, 'it was time, tinder any alternative, to reflect seriously upon his paq life, and prepare for etein;ty. When spoken to before trial resPectnig the murder, he was always most anxious' to evade conversation on that particular topic, and wished to turn the subject, which he often did with considerable address, and then became fluent upon any other event in his life which suggested itself at the moment, and was lively or adventurous enough to furnish interest to those with whom he hap pened to be in conversation. When spoken to respect ing any particular fact of which it was presumed he had any iaiormation, he either communicated what he said he knew in a prompt and fluent manner, or else laughed at the notion that he knew anything upon the point. When spoken to about gaming -houses, or the company of pugilists, his answer was nniform—that he had not known either for two. years, or many of the principal in dividuals engaged in them for nearly three years--that accident, rather than any predilection for such associates, had led him among them—that he was all!ays a loser, and often, he believed, a dupe.

The following fact may be relied upon :—On the Friday evening upon which the murder of Mr. Weare took place, the card of the murdered man was left at Lord Egremont's, - at Petworth. This card was, we have no doubt, left there .by one of the parties whose name has been much connected with the late proceed ings, and who was missed from London on that day. The intention clearly was, that if the murderers could have concealed the body, and avoided suspicion of the murder, it should be supposed that as the last place at which Mr. Weare was heard of, would, from the cit. cumstance of the card, be said to have been Petworth, it might have been conjectured he had gone on to Brighton, and from thence to the Continent, If .the whole truth rand the whole intentions of thensorderers should beavoeted by either of them, we think that it :will'. be fouud.thltt the sack and cord taken down to Gill's-hill were not for the purpose for which they were eventually Used, andfor which the short sack was clearly inapplicable, but for the purpose of destroying their victim by - strangulatiwt- , -the sack to bethrowu over Weares head, ais prevent much resistance and noise, ansi ?the cord to destroy life. -' Thiwtell's body arrived at Si. Bartholomew's Hospital -on - Friday night from:Hertford, having first undergone what is technically called the Crusian incision. There have beeti many applications .to see it, .which have hitherto met with a decided refusal. It will be open to the inspection of the pupils ofthe hospital to-day, and be' dissected by 'Mr. Abernethy and assistants to non - low: casts will be taken of the whole head- .When,thelandy:. reached the hospital, or shortly alter it was.degosited there, it was found that ore of this augers had been• cut off, doubtless for the use of tome person whose interest in the deceased surmounted the disgust which would oppose the selection of such a relic. The body will un-.. dergo minute dissection, and it is intended that the more su'ostantial parts shall be preserved. • Hunt entertained an opinion that he was to suffer on Friday morning with Tkurtell, and under that impres sion, he, on Thursday afternoon, wrote an affectiwg.let ter to his mother, which:he sent by the post, inclosed in the following letter to his attorney : " shall feel grateful if you will forward this to etly• an• fortunate mother, as I do nut know where she lives. " Yom's respectfully, " J. Ii OM". The letter to his mother is as follows : • " Hertford Jail, Jan.-Bth, 18 4 14.
