COME, Moon £ Patrick Connell and Maurice Connell were indicted for highway robbery, alleged to have been committed by them on the night of the 16th of July last. This case was conducted by the Crown Prosecutors. John Callaghan, examined by Mr. Qutx.--Witness resides at Liskeilane ' in the county of Cork. He recol lects the night of the 16th of July last. Witness was that night on his way from his house to. the city of Cork. He had a quantity of butter for sale. A woman of the name of Bridget Walsh was in his car. About the hour of twelve o'clock at night, he was stopped at a place called Boherish, between the towns of Mellow and Bet tevant. He was stopped by three men who jumped from• behind a ditch on the road ; one of them had a gun, another had a case of pistols, and the third man was armed with a bayonet, fixed upon a pole. The man who was armed with a gun demanded from wit ness money. He said he had none. That man was the prisoner, Patrick Connell. Upon this, Patrick Connell yelled out to the other prisoner, Maurice, to search witness's pockets.—Maurice took from off his person three shilling!, which he handed to Patrick. Maurice, after that. at the command of Patrick, went to the car, and took away a firkin of butter. Is pchitive that the man who had the gun in his hand was the prisoner Patrick Connell. (Here the prisoaer addressed the Court in a very emphatic man lier from the deCk..... Oh, my Lord, do not believe a word of it. I declare. to the Autsourr Goo. that I never fired a gun in my fife." Then, turning to the witness. he said, " You are swearing against our lives. and Goo will confound you yet." Cruss.examincd by Mr. llowkan--Witticsa is from Shillant, and can get an honest character. An incest character! Now. have you never been guilty of any dank—Ob. that kind of speech will not do for you.—(A laugh). Did you dine at borne that night Did you eat enough ? Witness (imitating the gestures and tone of the attorney)—l eat es much as I thought laugh). Yon had Biddy Walsh with you snug in the ear all night? I had. Is she gayest a beauty as your dear self. Jack?—She has as Mehl beauty as I have, and better ntausereehan you have ? (A laugh.) Did you drink anything dim night, my dear Jack did. Under faveur, what did you drink drank some milk. Was the nut a Uttirpoiinnt in it?—lt was a basin. Oh. I know, the mUk and the puma were in a basin—(A laugh.) So you drank a basin of petteen and milk T—l did How did you get poor Burke into. your clutches? I took him up because I knew him to be a bad member, and I thought he might have been the third man. You had a great deal of brats?—l had—(A laugh.) • They took from yoU a great deal of brass P—They did. And they left you a great deal of brass? Witness, astonished—They left me none. Oh, Jack, you mistake, they left you a great deal in the [ace.— (I.a ughter.) How did it happen that you had so much brass in your pocket; I got It front time to time. I sdppose you would not take brass ? oh, not you-(Loud laughter). never got any of your brats, Jack? No, thank Gon—(Conti rived laughter). Whet. the case closed, and the Judge had proceeded some short time in charging the Jury, the prisoner Patrick, who laboured under dreadful agitation, exclaimed- 0 My Lord. my Lord, we are inno cent men. Oh, can't I get a character ? Where is Sir James An derson ? Where is Mr. O'Leary? Where is Mr. Hamilton? Any of them can give us the best character." The Jury, after a short consultation, returned with a verdict of Not Thew isoner, Patrick Connell, bent down on his knees In the dock, in broken accents of joy and gratitude, returned thanks to the Curt.—'The prisontra were immediately discharged.

HIBERNIAN MINING COMPANY. -:.....- The Half-yearly Meeting of the Shareholders, in eon formity with the provisions of the Deed of Settlement * was held yesterday at the City of London Tavern t Mr. Bat,t. in the Chair. - The Report of the Directors WAS road, and ordered to be received. It,gaa►e a most flattering • account of the Company's affairs, and of the probable success of their raining speculation in Ireland. It alto appe4red that a sum of 12,0001. was now in the hands of she Treasurer, available to the disbursement of-the Association, which sum it was confidently anticipated would be increased to the amount of 20,0001. by the expected payments of defaulters. The statements of the Report, as to the prosperous condition of the lash Mines, were founded on accounts received from CaptainßEAVF 'RT. • Mr. Bum addressed the Meeting, and expressing his dissent from the statement of the Report, maintained that the concern was by no means se prosperous as it was represented to be. After the confirmation of the Report, it was resolved that the names of the Shareholders should be printed, with asterisms, Mark ing the number of votes to which each was entitled. CANTERBURY, Anal= S.—Saturday morning a storm of thunder and lightning passed over this city, but happily without doing any damage. The surround. ing country, however, was not so fortunate, as at Adi sham the lightning struck a windmill and forced out the windows and the door from its hinges. At Charing, also, the electric fluid descended on a dwelling house, the owner of which was severely .scorched, and the Muse partly demolished. %Tatum' ALL.•••-The grand Concerts givenat these Gar dens have formed a pew epoch, as it were, in the fashion able, as well as the musical world ; for it was considered very ungentee.l to be seen at Vauxhall, before ten or eleven o'clock, but now, the carriages roll along by eight o ' clock , and the S aloon is generally full before half-past. Last evening the selection was a very good one, and several new compositions were introduced, be sides al lots of favourites," as Mingle has it, by Miss j naves, Miss Lova, Miss Hums, De BEONIS. SINCLAIR repeated hisalegant Rondo of 0 I tell me no more of My sighs and thy tears, with his accustomed taste and axe cotton. BRAHMA sung, for the first time, England, the home Vthe World, which was //cored; he also sung a new song, founded on an idea which he gave to Mr. PARRY, of having the military words of command In troduced; the , recepttbh was enthusiastic, and the encore universal; chi volume of voice which be threw into the line 4 4 Make ready ! present ! firs r was truly wonderful. Tomtit:Km Wat4.l.--The Duchess of Mani honour ed Tunbridge Wells with her presence on Friday even ing. The inhabitants evinced strong feelinga of loyalty towards her Royal Highness, and each seamed to en deavour to vie with the other. The town was brilliantly illuminated, and at many houses the lights were inter spersed with festoons of Rowers, having altogetker a most splendid effect. The Orchestras on the Parade, in which were two military bands, who relieved one ano ther by playing several popular marches and airs, con tributed much to enliven the scene. They were both ornamented with flowers, transparencies, and lamps. The illuminations were general in the neighbourhood. Tuesday se'nnight, the servant of Mr. Longford, of Auchlyne, was robbed of a gold watch, and upwards of 1001. in money, by a person having the appearance of a horse-jockey, and who had only arrived two or three hours before at_Mr. Gibb's inn, Stirling, where he gave a horse in charge to the hostler. He was apprehended next day in a public house in Stirling, and all the pro petty, with the exception of about 121. on his person.— He was immediately committed to prison. There is now living at Fort William a woman of the name of Mrs, Ross, who has attained the extraordinary art of a hundred and five years. She is of a religious disposition, has been a very industrious and a very tem perate regular living woman, and still possesses a re markable buoyancy of animal spirits. She manages her household matters, and walks about the place with the activity of a maiden of eighteen. Her sght is but little, and her hearing none impaired, and it is only from a lack of lustre and animation in her eyes that a person discovers her patriarchal age. Her delight is in reminiscences of the days of other years, and possessing an excellent memory, with the garrulity natural to old people, she relates with great vivacity a number of ro mantic traditionary legends, which were much valued by aged people in her youth; instances of individual peril and intrepidity in battle, or the joys and misfor tunes of some happy or unfortunate pair. She has paid particular attention to the events that have been passing under her own eyes, and details with great minuteness the changes that have t4ken place in the dress, manner of living, and the face of the country, since her juvenile days. She is held in great respect by her acquaint ances, and is visited by a number of the intelligent people who visit Tort William. COMING TO Tat POINT.—The following is a ver batim copy of a Cieeronias epistle lately sent to s parish clerk re siding somewhat less than one hundred miles (torn the parish of Wooten. near Northampton: " Can wa bas snared to morrow morning at alavan Clock—Plase to sand man word." It is impossible in Russia for a man of character to go out, although it be only to next door, unless in a coach drawn by six horses—a state which becomes sometimes almost ludicrously inconvenient.—" The first day on which I confirmed to this practice, having a visit to pay to a Lady who occupied the next house to mime, one of my postillions had already entered the gate of her dwelling, while the carriage was still under that of my own."—Memoirs V Count Segur. A BANDY Jogs.—A company of itinerant actors once attempting to gratify the inhabitants of a country town by their united efforts, one of our best tragedies ' ~ was selected for the night's amusement. In the fourth act of the tragedy, the Duke, sitting in judgment, or dered the culinit into Court, in thew words:--" Bring the vile offender straight before us." The messenger, who was a wag, stepped forward, and exclaimed in the superlative, " It's impossible, your Grace, to bring him straight before you, for he is one of the bandyestlegged fellows you ever saw jn all your life;" which occa sioned such a universal roar, that a considerable time elapsed before the tragedy could be proceeded with. Sir CHRISTOIWEII N lruus, who commanded an Eng lish fleet in 1666, having taken a Spanish man of war, and got the Commander on board his ship, committed the care of him to a Lieutenant, who was directed to observe his behavionr. Shortly atter word was brought to MINNS that the Spaniard was deploring his captivity, and wondering what great Captain tt could be who had made Don with a lung and tedious string of names and titles, his prisAter. '['he Lieutenant was ordered to return to the charge, and, if the Dan per sisted in his curiosity, to tell him that KIT MINNS had taken him. This diminutive name uttetry confounded the titulado, threw him into an agony of grief, and gave him more acute pangs than all the rest rif his ho s . fortunes.

The Beadle—..Ezhatistlen and illness! piffling and drunkenness! He a drunkard, my Lord. He fell down dead drunk in the sweets, and a butcher brought him on his back to the workhorse.

The circumstances of suspicion already mentioned weft yesterday Strengthened by the production of mescal articles of property, such as sheets, shirts, Ste. belonging to Mr. Weans, which, since the former rumination, he discovered the prisoner bad robbed Mm of and pawned. Mr. bitterns also produced se. vocal anonymous letters which Mr. White and himself had resolved by the twopenny-pat, dueatenhig revenge if they should proceed against the prisoner. She was ultimate committed for the robbery ; and the Math. trate left it to Mr. White, Mr. Luzern', or the Insurance Com pany, to indict !)ter if they thought it on the charge of arson. A fashionable biking young man, who gave his name Richard Porker, was brought to the *See in custody of Read, the Aker, who apprehended him under the following circumstances: It appeared that of late a vast number of jewellers and silver 'smiths, all over town, have been defrauded of large quantities of plate, Ste. and amongst others Mr: Turner, of Bond-street. Some days ago the prisoner cam* to Mr. Turner's shop, calling himself Captain Montgomery, and ordered s quantity of plate to be sent to the house of Mr. Buck, a Gendemap residing in Seymour-street.— Mr. Turner knowing Mr. Buck u a customer, did not hesitate to send the plate and have it left; but it afterwards turned out that Mr. Buck and his family were out of town. and that the prisoner called there soon after the plate was left, and took it away ; having succeeded in his first .attempt he tried e snood at Mr. Turner's shop, and ordered more plate for Mr. Butt, but the former trick having been discovered, he was taken into custody by Read on his calling again at Mr. Buck's. On searching hie minutely the officer found stitched in the inside of his coat collar a member of pawn brokers' duplicates for plate, jewellery, St& to an immune amount, and amongst them the duplicate for the plate of Mr. Turner. The prisoner was remanded. Samna& Case —A young woman, named Aram Stuckey, was brought before the Magistrate under ie following curious circum stances : —The prisoner lived with a post-boy of the, name of Turner, in Avery-row, Brook-street. Their goods were distrained for arrears of rent, and as they were unable to meet the demand, &h. broker was desired to take an Inventory of the goods previous to their being sold by auction. Oa examining a box, be found a coffin, in which were the remains of an infant, carefully wrapped up in flannel. It was then in a shu:king state of deromposkion, no flesh remaining on the bones, except a little on the skull. It was therefore impossible to ascertain whether the child bad been mur dered. The prisoner appeared dreadfully agitated upon this dis covery being made. She acknowledged she was the mother of the child, but said she was married, and her name was Turner. She, however, now confessed to Mr. Dyer. the Magistrate, that she was east married, sod that her name was Stuckey. She declared that the child died shortly after it was born. Valentine, one of the ulcers , raid, that when the prisoner was sppr e hended, a female attended, who said she was present when the child was born, which was a year and ten months ago. It was born alive, but died ten minutes afterwards. She also said she wa shed it after it was dead. Mr. Dram asked the prisoner why she did not bury the body instead of keeping it twenty-two months in her box 7—She said she put it off front date to tine because she had t.o money to pay the expences. tte acecude. r , ' Collins, a constable, said. be 144 waited *On who attended the prisoner, but he had a very imperfect recolisettoa of the circumsamm, sad Was unable to state whether the child w..• born Aye. The constable added, that the child could have been buried for a few shillings. Mr. Delta said, It was a most dngvlar circemstance, and cue that ought to be duly investigated. He therefore remanded the prisoner until Saturday. An inquest on the remains of the child was held last Web; before Thomas Higgs, Esq. .

Mr. Stria= Sumo, as the question properly belonged to a so paint Court, said he should not interfere, and the parties withdrew. Two feßows, Miss and Manlier, " running dustmen," were charged with a robbery in the Branswkk Hotel, Hanover-square. The prisoners obtained access ander a pretence of sweeping the kitchen lot, and in the absence of the eerrants, they entered the laundry and :tole two bundles of wearing apparel; and in the ludg. fags of Miles was found an apron, one of the stolen articles.— Remanded. Maly Mete was charged with assaulting and robbing a young woman named Bristow, io St. James's Park. The proaccatrix was standing near Buckingham House, hearing the band play, when the prisoner snatched the ribbons Irons her bonnet, and then ran away.

The prisoner, on hearing the decision, suddenly Sew upon the promoutriz, and gave her two black eyes in the Justice Boom. A Masser= carpenter, named lrailkain, was charged with ma &toady cutting George Wilson, a coal porter. The parties lodge in the same house ; Wilson has frequently in terfered when Fulham beat his wife, and she as often new to his protection. A day or two ago he told his wife to go to her coal porter, whereupon Wilson desired him to desist from using his same, or he would repent it. About ten minutes afterwards Fri lls= approached Wilson, and with a small hatchet, which he had woes led under his coat, made a blow at Wilson, and inflicted a wound under the left ear. He wits about to repeat the blow whew the hatchet was taken from him. _ _ .

Palmyra. remanded for a further *lamination. UNION HALL A man named William North, a farrier, in the employsteot of Messrs. Truman and Hazbury, was charged with violently assault ing a Gentleman named Stanley. It appeared that Mr. Stanley and his two dater. were returning home on Saturday night along Blackfriarmbridge, and one of the Ladies being a little In advance, was seised round the waist by the prisoner, who treated her in a ,most indelicate manner. Me. Small; expressed his indignation at such behaviour, and informed North that the Lady he had insuked was his sister. North, however, instead of expressing the slightest contrition for what he bad done, became excessively insolent, and struck Mr. Stanley a desperate blew on the left eye, which closed up that organ, and it was much swollen. North, in his defense, said be was desirous of merely obtaining a kiss, and denied having treated the Lady in the manner described. Mr. Stanley offered to withdraw the charge upon his paying a few pounds to some charity ; but he treated tbe matter most con temptuously, and he was therefore ordered to And bail for his ap pearance at ths Sessions. There is no foundation for the statement that Sir H. Tames would shortly retire from his official situation as Military Secretary to his &pi Highness the Duke of Yoan. Letters from St. Petersburgh speak of the enormous expense of living in that capital. It far exceeds that of any Other Court in Europe; and since the period of the approac►ing Cones don, the extordon almost exceeds belief. BIRTHS.
