ATTRNPT TO MURDER, SUPPOSED KOSBERY, AND SETTING A HOUSE ON FIRE. -....- Yesterday morning, Rhont half.past one o'clock, a man called at the honor. of Dr. Wakein of No. 5, Argyle.street, Oxford street, and knocked at the door; all the servants were in bed, and Dr. Wakely, who was indiltored, was in his apartment, mining some leeches to his temples; lie placed. Macioce round his heed, and proceeded to open the door, nn doing which, the malt, who appeared to he flurried, 'paid that he had come from tvlttr.tveson, one of the Doctor's patieuis, who was dancerously ill, and required his imme. diate alletidance. The fellow repeating a ease or cider, as be was fatigued by a long journey, Doctor Wakely cons plied, and went down stairs to the cellar to procure him ■ glass. During the time it is supposed that the villain admit ted some accomplices. On the Doctor's returnio the passage he observed something rush inwards him, and at the same moment he received a tremendous blow on the head, which knorked him down. It was with mese instrument, and at - the same time the destructive weapon of the assassin was aimed at his breast, on which he received • stab; he then thrust the instrument • second time, which passed through the collar of the Doctor's carat, waistcoat, and neckcloth, and penetrated his skin- Ile received other injuries; and while he lay in the passage he received violent blows from some person or persons—his abdomen was severely bruised. In this deplorable stile he laid fur three quarters of an hour without the least assistance, when be was roused from his stupor lay the flames in immense bodies rushing (low's the stairs, and intense smoke. He witb difficulty arose sad crawled out the hack way, and climbed through a sky-light leading to the house of Mr.Thompsoo, next door, in whose parlour he was afterwards found weltering is his blood, and apparently in a dying state. He was immediately carried to thr house of Mr. Parker, in Argyle-street, where Doctors t.nke and Cater attended and dressed his wounds. On Dr. Wakely being supported to the above house, a daring villaiu unfeelingly snatched at the Doctor's watch, and got it from his fob; he had the presence of mind to seise the villain by the collie; the property was recovered, and he was taken in custody to the watch-hawse. Mr. Wakely, after being dressed, was put to bed, and yesterday morning he bled himself, and fearful that his wife, to whom he was lately married, should be alarmed by the too s peedy intelligence of the atrocious deed, although in so dreadful a condition, be proceeded to his country residence yesterday morning. Threequarters of an hour hail elapsed before the are was disrovered by Dr. Wakely, who as well as he was able, made on alarm ; the sservauts immediately arose and made their escape. A lamplighter broke in the parlour windows, ou which the dames burst forth in a great body and the neigh bunrlsorid was in a moment Illumined; the utmost confusion pervaded, and the inmates of the adjacent houses were area in almost a state of nuilitv, to take refuge in other houses. In a abort time several engines arrived, and having plenty of water, played with great activity on the element, which seemed to threaten destruction to all around it, will persons were employed, aaviug the furniture. In a few hours the hustle of Dr. Wakely was completely gutted, and what property there was in the horse (if tint stolen) was destroy ed. Property, consisting of .guineas, to, an immense amount, were in one of the upper apartments, and the fire men will be employed to search after, in order to ascertain whether any robbery was committed, or if the above trans. action proceeded from malice. The mysterious affair has caused many sospicions to be circulated. A shot tints ago Dr. Wake!, .received several threatening letters, signed "Jealousy is the cause, but it is from a friend." 'Ube men who called was unknown to Dr. Wakely, and the ca:w is involved its the greatest mystery. During the course of the day volition persons of distinctiou abunt the neigh bourhood made inquiry after_ the state of Mr. Wately, sod the answer wan, " although ly iujured, there are hopes of his recovery " Fortunately the adjoining houses belonging to Messrs. Thompson and flotlgson are not injured, save a slight 'combine." Ssi great an interest was excited by the qnick circulation of the above horrid transaction, that crowds ,of persons assembled, and Mr. Conant, the Magistrate, in the course of the day, attended with Mr. Dyer, and took the examine tioos at the house of Mr. Parker of the servants belonging to Dr. Wskely, and other persons, butt he himself was in such a debilitated roodition that be was unable to give his deposltirms. The morgeoles who examined the wounds on the body of Dr. Wakely did not think that they were of that serious nature as to affect his life, hot the fortunate eirenmettinem of his having pot the bandage round hie heed prior to opening the door prevented the violent blow he received having its serious effect; the blow was given by mime heavy instrument, and mast have been given with a deadly in tention. No idea whatever can be formed as to the parties con cerned in this atenciows ash, laforinalion was immediately given at the police establiabniern, and likewise to the Secre tary of State's office, for the purpose of causing bills to be circulated for the arrebension of the party.

Leech had corn growing 400 or 500 yards off, and it was thrash-d in his barn, which VAS about 800 yards front plantatiori. Part of the barn was flagged, and the rest clay. The body was lying with the face uppermost, and clotted blold below the head, but could not observe airy ether blood near the place. &rosined log the JUDOC—Witness thought the ling a little raised by the hand, and supposed he ha , l been shot in the very place, as there was nothing to enable them to judge that it had been brought there. Witness had known the Prisoner for three or four year. bark—had lived near him, and they had wrought together .could not say any thing hut well of his ternoet and humanity. Edward Baines Fletehe-, surgeon at Warwick bridge, proved he went to see Mr. Robert Leech, but he wits not in a state to be brought to give eel deuce. He was called upon to examine the body of the deceased on Saturday, the 2714 May (which was the day after it" was found), at Mortliwsne, which is about half a mile from the plantation where the body was found. The wound was at the junction of the head and neck, and was occasioned, he thought, by the content, of some fire-arins, which must hare been very near at the time of fir ing, as the whole contents, he thought, had en terer!, and had made a wound of about the size of the tit of a gun. ‘Vitness wished to opt., the head, but the Coroner's Jury thought there was no occasion. The wer !brae of the neck were all bro ken, but the forehead was not—the }treater part of the shut in the head, and he thought it would oc ca.ion instant death. (:rnss•ezamined.—The wound did not appear in any place but where the shot had entered—there was no bleeding at nose or ears. Sume shot bed been taken out, such as, in his opinion, were used fur shooting pheasants or wild fowl. Mary Robinson assisted in washing the head of deceased 9,1 Friday, 26th May. She got three shot, which were cut in two pieces to see if they were lead—they were much bruised—middling sired, but cannot say what No. Ann Maxwell, sister of the deceased, said her fattier, who was a tailor, its well as her brother, was in the habit of going about to work; they lived at Murthwaite, which is about a quarter of • mils front Scarrow Hill. Her brother was in the habit of going about the coentry, at the same time col.' lectirig money which was due by servants.

Cross-examined—Knows the Prisoner and her brother were very Ultimate, and had been so for some tune ; they passed a great deal of time to. gether when they had leisure; they were often by themselves on Sundays and other times, and the Primmer had been at their house at Alfferent times to see her brother.

The Prisoner at that time had a sprained ankle ; had it before the 19th ; on the Saturday let heat ride end walked himself, in consequelice of the said ankle.
