CHARGE OF MURDER AGAINST A POLICE CONSTABLE. --.5.-- (ABRIDGED FROM TILE WATERFORD CHRONICLE IVATERFORD ASSIZES-COUNTY On Wednesday last, immediately after the Lord Chief Justice had taken his seat, Henry !Map, a police con stable stationed at Tramore, was arraigned in the *lsms terms for the murder of Bartholomew Magrath, on the 14th of April last, at his house near Annstown, by shoot ing him through the head. 'f he deceased anti others, it appears, bad cut and col. lected, on the strand at A nestown, or Benvoy, a quanti ty of sea weed, fur manure. The proprietor of the land (Matthew Power, Esq. of Dunhill Lodge), conceiving that this was a violation of his own exclusive right, took possession of the sea weed so collected, His carts, when an the art of drawing it away, were stopped by the coun• try people and the manure rescued. Informations, in consequence of this rescne, were sworn against the deceas ed and two others, before Henry Sargent. Esq a Magis trate for the county, residing in IVaterford, who there upon issued his warrant fur their apprehension, anti with Mr. Power (the cotnplainant), went to the police station 1 at franwre, to direct Mr. Hely, the gentleman command in the police there, to seed a party to execute the war. emit. It Was then arraneed that the party should go out for this purpose at three o'clock the next morning ; but subsequently, at nine or ten o'clock same evening, Mr. Power, alone, called on Mr. Hely, and prevailed on him, by certain representations, to let the party go out that night. To shew the nature of the transaction that occasioned this appeal to justice, we select the following portion of the evidence for the prosecution and defence, as suf ficient :—.leremiah Ilarley, a policeman, examined.— Saw a maw whom he understood to have been called Bartholomew hlagrath lying dead, at the wall of his own house. He came by Its death in consequence of being shot by the prisoner, Delap. Ile hail not done any thing offensive to the prisoner before be was shot. Had gone to the house of the deceased to execute a war rant against him. Ott arriving at the house of de ceased, the party demanded admittance in the King's name, which was not granted. The demand was severs' times repeated, but no answer was given. When wit. nese first saw the deceased, he was lying on his face, dead. Did not see him before he was shut. The body was lying in front of the house, wider the window oat of which deceased had come. Did not see the deressed, or any other man, running away. SAW Delay tire the shot; went immediately over the hedge, and found the man lying dead. Had nut a view of the deceased when he was fired at. Heard Delap, call out " Stop! Stop !" pretty quickly—he did not add " in the Kin's This was about a second before the shot was fired. The party consisted of four, all armed. It was not slay-light VI night was not dark, nor was it very bright—it was a clear, .star•light night. The party had been twenty minutia or over at the house when the shot was tired. They' desimented adinittanee homed'- ately on cooling to the hosse—but no answer was glee* I(rod within. Saw no person outside thee house except , the party; two of them were.in the rem, atpl two is the front; the prisoner and witness were Ilse two iu front.-•=. Mr. Sargent was not cross examined. Francis Bernard Bele, Esq. examined.—Got a war rant on the 14th April last, from fir. Sargent, who Came to witness's quarters, accomp4qied by Mr. Power, and desired witness to wtrke arrangements for the apprehen sion of the three men missed in the warrant. Witness sent for Henry Delap, considerinz him as a careful, so ber, steady man, and gave hilts direction, to take out • party to execute the warrant—at the some time giving him a particular charge respecting Ntagrath, in conse quence of having been told by Mr. Power that Magrath was a desperate, detertnine4 fellow, and a very bad cha racter. It was then arranged that the party shoild g.) out ah suit 3 o'clock in the morainz, as the most likely time to find them coming out of their houses. Mi. Power, however, ratite to witness afterwards, alone, about nine o'clock at night, and requested that the party might he sent out that night to take the men, tie 14d4 learned, he said, since their former interview,. that fury or fifty of the conntrx people were deteeniined to whams bib early in the morning, to cut sea weed on the stran in dispute, and he was anxious to prevent it, which be thought might be done by having the three men arrested that night, and thus intimidating the others. When the case at both sides was closed, the Chief Jus t tice intimated to prisoner's Counsel, that even supposing there was aufifteitot provovation fur the firing, it was still necessary to chew that tbe crime charted against the de ceased in the warrant was either treason, or felony, in order to make out a case of Justifiable Homicide. This had not been done—but it was certainly incumbent on them to do so. Mr. H.►3ltt.rox conceived, that though the word " felony" was not expressly mentioned in the warrant, yet the offence charged, that of taking the sc weed by force, must he considered in that light. The sea weed was certainly a chattle,and he submitted that takingof it, in the ►uanner described, was a felony—being a larceny with violence, which was the exact delinitioa of a robbery. The Counsei fur the prosecution at first dissented from this construction; bur after some consultation amongst the gentlemen concerned for 62 proacuution, they inti mate.' their acquiesence in theconstruction suggested by Nr. Hamilton. The Chief JUSTICE then addressed the Jury at consi derable length, and with much discrimination and impar tiality, in a speech for which we regret we have not space, and the Jury retired to their room at a quarter before one o'clock. After they had been inclosed for some time, Mr. Ha milton pointed ont a passage in some hook of authority (the title of which escaped Its), th- tendency of which was to show that flight from the officers of Jus'ice was legally included in the definition of resistance to the execution of a warrant. In compliance with Mr. Ilitnil ton's desire, his Lordship had the Jury called out again, and explained to them, that in what be had said respect ing resistance, he did not mean to cordine the idea to mere bodily opposition or violence ; and that a in the cuss ()fillet, violence, tiring on the person using it might be justifiable, if he could not otherwise be secured—so. in the case of flight, there nigh• he a salicient jitstiliea tion fur firing at the fogitive, provided there were no other means of apprehending- him. The Jury then retired. At a quarter before two the Jury again came into the box, to inquire of his Lordship whether the prisoner would be entitled to an acquittal, in case they should be of opinion that he (the prisoner) thought be mill not take the man without firing at him. Ills Lordship said, that, from the circumstances laid be fore theta in evidence, it was their duty, and their peculiar province, to decide, whether a sufilcient justification had been shown for the act by which the man had been deprived of life; and one of the principal and most material ingre dients in that important question was the consideration of whether the man might have been apprehended othersrise than by firing at him. It was therefore quite irrelevant to consider what might have been the priioner's conception of the necessity of toe case; it was not by what might have I been his belief or opinion on the point (even if they had any means of ascertaining it) that they wet., to be Raided ; ' they were bound to form their opinion of the necessity from the ,acts stated in evidence, which lie need n , t again reca pitulate to them, hut one of which certainly was (As a Juror remarked), that the call to "stop" was by one of the wi'- nesse% said to have preceded the shot only by a world— though another had sworn that he had heard some one cry out "there, he's off!" and that he heard the slit so ,:t after. this Lordship then repeated some of his former on sorvalione on the principles by Which they should be guided in framing their verdict, when they again retired. At ten minutes past two they intimated that they had agreed, end, on being called Into Court, returned a verdict of Not (*tatty. The Cam 11)STICr. beforelliachprging the Prisoner de livered hints*. f to the following effect : " Reiter Belap--tbe•Jury, by pronottecing a verdict if acquittal, have tkcideJ that the lift of the unfortunate -h.: •-• " I am boom! to lament that Mr. Sargent, whose mo tives I have no dual); were perfectly fair and jostitiabie. did not feel it necessary to iustitnte a more deliberate in riry into rite nature of the olince in this instance, 1),.. tore lie took so strong and decided a step—but I am per fectly sure that he must have Wen i&sted by es firti'raie4 representation., and I have no douht that he will be more cautions in future.

After a few briber remarks with respect to Mr. Wes conduct, similar to those he had previously 41:livered. anl on the danger of employing the PA, e on stuth er rands by night, except in extreme cases and under pio,ier precautions, his Lordship concluded his very eloquent and deeply impressive observations, of which the per.; eeding is but a feeble representation, by ordering the Prisoner to be discharged. On Thursday night, about I I o'clock, as one of the Clapion stages was proceeding along the Hackntsy-rold, leaded with passengers, inside and oat, a ruffian jumped up he:and and snatJhed a valuable shawl from a l ady. who was seated by the side of a gentleman in the dickey_ The coach was stopped, and an alarm given, but the fel low escaped with the property through one of the adjoin ing streets.

Verdict.—Temporary Mental Derangement. At Oravesend, the beginning of this week, a lady, wh • arrived there from London, missed her child, about two years and a half old, tvhicli was supposed to have been stolen by some gypsies, who had erected a tent in the neighbourhood. On Tuesday evening, as wetter was raising from a well, the poor infant was brought up, an,l (wind dead in the bucket. The unfortunate mother. when apprised of it, became almost distracted.
