THE CONSPIRACIES. About 30 years ago something in the plan of the present dia loilieal ay.tpm of conspiracy was practised in London. on which occasion two of the wretches were hanged. One of the twi tters which they employed opon that occasion was, to prevail moon some innocent man to hold a bundle er a horse, or some other property et cently stolen, and to have him immediately apprehended as the real offender. A wither practice about the same time was, to► ton or three of the villains to go a mile or tno from the metropolis, and charge any poor man they hap pen, d to meet 0 ith a robbery; mud by a concerted phut, there appealed on the trial no doubt of the unfortunate 11111511 . 5 guilt; for, as the wretches were conveying the victims to prison, they always put into their pockets such articles as their accomplices swore to have been htUiell BOWATREF.T. A Pea attaattov Or VALM11%%....di1l %crane..day three addi tional intormationa. were received against Vanlnas' ; mid Mr. Narrr igsned A warrant for his aporehen,ioti. The officers de puled to apprehend him were lambrick and the junio r unit Friday at one o'clock (in cotvolisetice of information) they prooevdeil to No. 3, New-atreet, Fieldgate street, White chapel, and them apprehended him. He was immediately brought heron the Nlattigrate, and committed to the I Init.. , of Correction. Vaughan had a brave of !untied pistols on him when taken. Among the things found on Vaneltaii, upon his apprehension. was a letter foam Iti rant, one of the Irishmen ' , Nat ii iaa ed at the Mansiou•lionse, addressed to Vaughan and Mao's, begging for u u mey to get out of the way—some Tyburn tickets, and printed curds, offering others to sale—several statements of money transactions between him, Dickens, and ethers, in treat ing common info' mers with gin, ave. Ace. for the apprehension of different people, for the lottery. 'tank tokens, Zi:c..V.e.; an account of the division of rrwaids in capital cases. There was, likewise, a inemorrodum of an appointment to meet Mar- Lay at Hoxton. Archibald Rittlivin was also clot ll i 11l 41; and Dickins was antlered to lind bail, hi 1001. and two sureties in 501. each. THE DELI: DEO IRISH COINERS, The three Irishmen lately stated to have been inveigled by conspirators, and convicted of coining, still remain in New gate. 'l • he following is the account they 2i% e of the u•ansartion : Thomas Connell, who is about 2-1 of aie, and James who is About 20, are oat sec of Headfort, in the west 411 Ireland; And have been in England about ten months. They left home in consequence of the dilicillty of obtaining an em ployment, And the poverty of wages when employed, which, in that part of Ireland, is generally not more than utl, or bd. a day for the most severe agricultural labour. Hence they . einignittel, and in the hope of hieing enabled, through a better remuneration fur their labour in this country, to spare something for their aged parents (each of which is encumbered with a large family) •t.t assist in paying their rent. !loth are extremely ignoront, s.nd, as may be presumed, very imperfectly acquainted with llieEnglish language.. . _ Drools Reardon, who is about IS sears of age, was born in the sicinity of 'roam, and was urged to emigrate by the Same considerations as the other two. He had been only three weeks In England at the time he was taken into costotiy. To this youth, chose simplicity is obvious, one of the conspirators t Bally 1 first applied at the market in Cheapsitle, where the dry looosirers assemble to wait fur cmplo)ment. But Reardon being totally ignorant of the English i:1117,11/Itte, Quin became Ilia interpreter. Barry then asked Quin himself a Moller lie wanted a jolt, telling Min that he would also hire his coimia talon,. Connell, who stood beside him. The three were accordingly engaged ; but each hat ing a hod and shovel, in expectation of being emplossed by bricklayers, for whom they usually worked, they were told by Barry, and two of the tither conspirators, to leave their hods and shovels at home, as they would have no occasion fur them. The conspirators accompanied the prison rs for some distance on their way home to Golderelatte, where they lodged. On leaving them, the conspirators desired the prisoners to get some breakfast, and tat meet them again at nine o'clock at Cripplegate church. The parties met according to uppointruent, and proceeded together in the room in door-yard, where they were immediately set to work in tiling copper. This copper was cut by scissors into the tiwin of buttons, by Harry and another conspirator, who is not yet in custody. Twn of the prisoners were furnished with a file each, and directed to file the edges of these copper pieces, while the third was oc cupied in rubbing each piece with sand paper. Thus the con spirators anti the prisoners were employed till about one o'clock, when the prisonor (Connell) expressed a wish to go with his comrades to dinner. But, upon this expression, Barry anal his ce. ladjutors said they should not go, as they had previa' of fur them a better dinner than they were likely to get at bonne. Vith the professed view of in ging this dinner, Barry iii c diately left the room, and the other conspiratorsflilloweal, say hag that they would return with the dinner. But the conspira tors had not Leen absent above five minutes when Brock aual Pelham, with the Police officer, Taylor, entered, and took the prisoners Mtn custody. Such is the istranionatits statement of tlin prisoners, confirmed, as we have already said, in es ery material point by the confes sion of the conspirators. '1 he prisoner's satisfactorily account for tilt 0.41111er in whirl' they II:1Se been employed move their arrival in England, an several respectable bricklayers, under -whom Connell and Quin worked, have voluntarily come for ward to bear testimony tat their industry amok hoot:sty. Reardon, having been only three weeks in England, is nut of course SO will known. On Monday night, or Tuesday morning, the wise-vaults in Davis street, 11._skeles-ispuire, were broke open and robbed of SO dozen of the beat wine. The robbers broke open three stromg 4 bio r s ; an d after that Vase is no doubt but that they regaled themselves profusely with tone of the moat choice wines, smoked tobacco, &c. they had also °perks'. a munber of bottles of wine, to :iscrrtain the best sorts to carry off; for which purpose they had put a truck together in the cellar, and used it to rare ) off their booty, which they did publicly on 'Tuesday morning, on the truck. The persona who saw them taking away the wire had so smincion of their being robbers, altliom.fh at an early hour, form the tablie uomner in which they carried it .itE; they appearing to la wel acquainted with the premises, and putting the truck together with the peoest ease, as if they had been accustomed to it.

Woo. Gregory, who was a genteel yosing man, of respectable conneetions, was convicted on the same day of having forged transfer of 2:11. in the 5 per Cent. Annuities, which sum stood in the name of Eliza Coward, to whom he professed a strong attachment of love. Geo? ge Alnyeack was convicted on the 4th of June, of having forged, and published as time, a 21. note. They were confined (hiring the night in one cell, and were attended by the Rev. Mr. Cotton and the Rev. Nlr. Rndge. These three unfortunate men have cmiducted tiwinselves with the most exemplary propriety, devoting the whole of their time to prayer, and scree truly penitent for the various sins of which they had been guilty; and particularly Gregory., who was very young, and by a melancholy coincidence suffered the sentence of the law on his birth-day. In allusion to this cir cumstance he observed to NI r. Rudge, jest lii-fore his if on* were knocked off, " I shall spend it joyfully ; for I am going, I trust, to keep it everlastingly with my Saviour and God." IVith respect to Boye r , as some apprehensions had at first been entertained, that lie %%mild not leave the world in that fit and desirable frame of mind to which lw was event nally brought, we give the thllowilig letter, which, in the name of himself and his unhappy companions, lie addressed to the Clergyman (the Rev. James Midge) by whom they hate been attended since the order for their execution was received : DEAR Sia,—T sincerely beg pardon for taking this liberty to write to you, but my present situation. 1 humbly trust, will he accepted by you as an excuse. Ni doubt but you have heard that the Report has come here, aad that Gregory, with Maycock, and myself are to suffer on Saturday next. We therefore most humbly beg to tell you, that we hope you will favour us with your kind advice to direct us in the best road to heaven. We are well satisfied no Minister is more capable, and we sincerely hope that you will be kind enough to come to our relict' and assistance. I remain, dear Sir, praying to God to have you always in his holy keeping. Your obedient, humble Servant. Rev. James Midge, Limehouse, J. BOYCE. 22d July. At eight o'clock the .Under Sheriff, followed by a few friends, proceeded to the Press-yard. The unhappy delinquents were most strenuously employed iu singing psalms and spiritual songs: and it was tomid necessary to re.ort to persmuiion to get them from the cell. At twenty minutes past eight they were ushered to the fatal scaffold. (:rectory evidently laboured undera strong sensation of the fear of death, which he exhibited to the last moment : on being turned off, he by some means loosened nis hands, and world have succeeded in removing his cap, had not theCxecn tioner pulled him by the ICKA: he died in great agony. Boyce manifested considerable agitation, and died rather hard.; but May cock parted this transitory life without a struggle or sigh. —lt was the anniversarrof lloyee's wedding-day. After hanging the usual hour, their bodies were cut down, and consigned over to their friends fir interment. Mr. Serjeant Onslow was sworn iu a King's Serjeant on 'rues day morning in the Court of Chancery, Lincoln's Inn; and Mr. larryatt and Mr. Gurney as King's Counsel. The two latter Gentlemen took their scats within the Bar of the Court of King's Bench. On Monday an Inquest waF held at the Spread Eagle, Millbank, on the laxly of a woman who was found drowned in the river. .1. Tipper deposed, that, as he was going to work, he perceived a person opposite the bout-house. apparently walking in the water. In a few minutes after a man requested his assistance ; saying, a woman was drowning. He instantly assisted in bringing her on shore. apparently quite dead. B. Beveridge was on Ranelagii Bridge, and observing a person strug gling on the surface of the water. he called for :ix-is-tame, and pulled off his clothes, in hopes of getting her out; but not being able to reach a boat, he was compelled to go to the boat-house, ;Ind with assistance brought the deceased on shore. A surgeon was instantly sent for, but he did not conic. Witness believed when he first saw the body it was alive : but no means were tried to restore life. W. Boyc and J. Baker confirmed the foregoing evidence. H. Clark searched the body. She had no property ; but had a letter, signed " .1. Franklin the re mainder could not he read. The Coroner lamented that the means re ecrnmenoled by the Humane Society had not been tried; and the Jury returned their cerdiet—Found Drowned. Tuesday an filmiest was held at the Hose and Crown, Park-lane, en the body of Mr. E. Pitman, a saddler. It. Hart, journeyman to the deceased. detailed several instances evincing a derangement of his (the deciNused's) mind; and stated, that about one o'clock on Sunday morn iag, he insisted on his going to his cottage, at Brompton, to sce his children, whore be said a soldier war killing. Witness aceompanied him, and on his arrival at the door, the deceased grasped his hand, and fell dead in his arms. Mr. hiller, surgeon, of Piccadilly, stated, that: a few eLays bethre the fatal event, the deceased laboured under violent nervous irritation ( and, from his observations of the body after his de. taw, he had no doubt his death was -occasioned by the rupture of a 'blood-vessel.
