From the evidence of Charles House, postillion to the pro swat's., it nppeared, that on the night of the 4111 Fehrnary, lie went out frian his master's stables, over which im siert, and which adjoined the dwelling house, leaving the door fast. On his return he found the tloor broken open, end the articles car ried off. Part of the property was found in the prisonet's Mr. Adolphus, foe the prisoner. objected to the description of the prosecutor in the icdictment. He was there described as " Archibald Primrose, Esq. commonly called Earl Roseberry." Being it peer of the realm, he submitted tbst he could not be properly terincil an 1 , :111;ise Soch a title might hare been just previous to the union with Ireland, but since that event it was improper. The Reeorder said, lie thought the point was one which ought to be submitted to the Judges, he should therefore re serve it. The prisoner was then found gull y, death, subject to the opi ni.in of the Jaitlgt s on the objeetion taken. The prisoner was then tried and found guilty, capitally, of a burglary in the house ofGen.

The Kireum stances of the case were similar to the last. Mr. James Lewis proved that the order produced was not Mr. Green's hand writing, as did Mr. Great himself. The Cottnnon Serjcant upon looking over the indictment, found in it a fatal detect, as the order was pot sruroj in it; thrrefote there was a defect in the proof. Verdict—Not Guilty.

The Cananun Serjeant recapiltilatell th^ ftet%, wad the Jury without hesita tion pronounced the prisoner GO fiy. A surprising incredulity prevails among Frenchmen of all parties as to the real destination of Buonaparte. No body in France believes that he is at St. Helena : all of th":1"1, whether Ultra-Royalists, fkloderatists, Federes, Buonarartists, or Jacobins, seem equally out of the reach of conviction on this point. A Paris paper says—" There was a remarkable discre pancy in the number of deaths among the allied troops in Paris in 1815. The Russian army lost 4 23 men ; the Austrian ar:ny, ; the Prussian army 154 ; and the English army, 10'27."

The cry of" watch," spring ing of *lles, and the report of the pistol, alarmed some of the neighbours, who were then in their beds, and they instantly re paired to the spot; some of whom recognized Mr. Davies, and accompanied him to the watch-house, where lie gave charge of his assailant, who was taken into custody, and who, on being asked what was his m otive for such a diabolical at tetujit, said, be hail done it in his own defence. He refused to send for any friends, saying, he would explain every thing before a magistrate. The constable of the night asked him why lie carried loaded pistols about him? lie replied, lie was a gunsmith by trade, and had the pistol to repair it : that his flame is Joseph isteptom, residing at 5, Angel-court, Long-acn e. Ile was then searched, and a cask full of powder, and intone flask full of slugs and large shots, were found on him; lint : e refused to account why lie hail such things about him, ..iy. ;• he would answer any question pot to him by the magistia e; but whether robbery or inii..der was his object is not yet &sect taiucd. lie is, however, kept in close custody.
