Being the Manufacturers (vr:tli experienced managers) of the chief and most expensive portions et OUTFI I'S, they are enabled to produce and render them at WHOLESALE PRICES; thus preventing MILITARY and NAVAL OFFICERS, CADETS, and PASSENGERS generally sacrificing the usual intermodia'e profit.

SILVER and CO. pack and ship their CUIP ! tomers' outfits, clear and warehouse their baggage homewards, pro cure and give SHIP-SAILINV information outwards or homewards, without 'receiving a commission for such business. Moreover, theyi do not allow the too usual commission to persons who introduce customers to them, that purchasers may derive every advantage. For example, individuals who are about to leave for India are gene rally inundated with.applications and lists from Outfitters, who ob tain the name and.. address of the party going abroad from persons to whom they pay (if they supply the Outfit) so large a com mission for the information, as.to materially increase the amount of. the Outfit. Now, SILVER and CO. never forward a list of neces saries to any one, unless direeted to do so by the party (or Mandl going abroad. Thus SILVER and CO.'s prices are not burthened with commission, because all recommendations to apply to them are pure and disinterested.

TWA :ady had the following letter Inserted in the "Tines" news paper on Aug. 7, 111 , 16. Reader, remember, this letter was put into the paper by the lady herself, as a testimony to me. " Mrs. Weekley, of No. 3. Swan-street, Borough, takes this oppor amity of publicly thanking Mr. W. Brimstone, of the Ilerbary, High ottc lor . the efficaey of his Aromatic Regenerator, In having com pletely restored the hai r on her head, after using it about four months, and the whole of her hair Is much stronger and more luxuriant than I ever was before the baldness appeared. " Mrs. Weekley inserts this testimony to the virtues of Mr. G.'s Regenator, feeling assured that many ladies would gladly purchase an I Is. bottle if they were as certain of Its virtues as she is, from ex perience, not only in the restoration and production of hair is abund but as a cure of mervons headache ; as a toilet perfume iti far beyond any to her taste. She will feel a pleasure in answering any ady of respectability to the above tact ,-3, Swan-street, Borough." In cases of the hair becoming thin, weak, or turning grey, afe w drops on the crown of the head occasionally, every week, will pre vent the hair from coming away with the comb, mane it strong, and lrevent it taming grey', rendering the hair luxuriant and curly. A few drops on your hairbrush before brushing the hair, will give the lair brilliancy, causing it to curl. . The most delicate ladies may use this delightful product of the Hest aromatic herbs and flowers with confidence; its refreshing dour removes headache and makes it a most necessary companion o the toilet. In cases of nevous headache, pear ten or twelve drops n the crown of the hea I; if v.•ry bad, repeat it every quarter of an our. In most cases relief is certain in ten minutes. It produces sir oil children's heads in a few apppliestions. If used on infants' ends, it has sue h a peculiar cooling influence on the brain as to pre vent convulsions, as well as promoting the growth of hair.--See ,araphlet of testimonials. _ .

(Sittings at Nisi Prius, at Westminster, before Mr. Baron ROLFE and Common Juries.) BRBACLT OF risoldisz.—C•NTEß V. CLARE. This was a part-heard case. The action was to recover compensation in damages for a breach of pro mise of marriage. The defendant pleaded that he did not promise. Mr. Sergeant Allen, with whom was Mr. H. A. Simon conducted the case for the plaintiff; and Mr. li. Chambers appeared for the defendant. Mr. Sergeant ALLEN entered into a lengthened statement of the plaintiff's case, of which we give an outline. This, he said, was an action of a class which he was happy to say was not of very frequent occurrence in the present day in courts of law. It was an action to recover compensation in damages for the infliction of one of the most severe injuries which the juvenile female mind could be submitted to, namely, a breach of promise of marriage, and he thought he should best discharge his duty to the lady whom he represented, were he to confine himself to a statement of the details of this painful and lamentable affair. A" simple narra- 1 tive, therefore, he would place before the jury, with 1 the perfect conviction that, having heard the simple . 1 story he had to detail, they would very quickly arrive at a just conclusion, and do ample justice to the plaintiff, for whom he at that moment appeared. The 1 parties, plaintiff and defendant, both lived in the Kingsland-road. The former was the daughter of a Air. Carter, who, some 20 years ago, had been the proprietor of a very celebrated tavern, in those days known as;the Laurel-tree, Brick-lane, Spitalfields. it was noted as a house for first-rate dinners. Mr. Carter, at his death, left a widow and several children, of whom the present plaintiff was one,'with a provi sion of some 3,0001. or 4,0001. As the family grew up they applied themselves each to obtain a livelihood without trenching on the mother's income. The plaintiff and her sister established a school, but eventually, when one of them married, the mother' and the plaintiff went to reside in the Kingsland road. After they had been there some time the defendant became the proprietor of an extensive grocer's shop within a very short distance of Mrs. Carter's residence. This was about the Spring of 1846. Mrs. Carter had dealt at the shop prior to the defendant becoming its owner, and having been introduced to him by his predecessor, she had con tinued to,purchase all articles of grocery of the new master. In the course of time, the plaintiff having been in the habit of making purchases at the shop, inspired the defendant with a feeling of love, which resulted in his being received in the character of her future husband. Continual interchanges of visits ensued, and the plaintiff was introduced to the defendant's family and connexions as the lady who was about to become his wife. After this the defen• dant appeared to hare consulted her on, everything. She, to a certain extent, kept his books, examined the accounts, and had the management and hiring of his servants. The particular dress, black satin,which he wished her to wear at the wedding, was chosen by himself, notwithstanding the:plaifitiff's mother said she thought her daughter would look as well in white, or a light dress, which was more usual on such occasions • because, as she had been many times with him at th e chapel, the people would stare at them if she were to go in a bright wedding dress, seeing that all had considered that they were already married. There was scarcely an act which could have reference to their marriage which the defendant did not with the utmost scrupulousness and the utmost propriety consult the plaintiff upon. Thus matters went on from about the month of June, 1846. until the month of March, 1847, when, on the 15th of this latter month, the defendant made a communication to the plaintiff to the effect that it was necessary they should abandon their mutual pledge of attachment, upon the ground, as was afterwards divulged, that her health was too delicate to render tier a fitting subject for a wife, or to become the mother of a family. This blow was felt with great severity by the plaintiff, who became incoherent in her mind, and at times unable to recognise any member of her family. After this interview the plaintiff was conveyed home, but had not been there long before her brother re turned. As soon as he had ascertained what had occurred, he went to the defendant and demanded the cause of his conduct. The defendant simply replied that the cause was her delicate state of health. This was all the reason the defendant assigned for break ing off the engagement; but a person of the name of Morgan, his brother-in-law, states that it was because the plaintiff was physically unfitted for a wife or a mother, and that she wanted the necessary anatomical properties which were so advisable for a married state. The brother was astounded at this coarse declaration, and said that the only illness his sister was subject to was a susceptibility to colds, and an occasional attack of debility, but not more so than every other fermate was liable to. Morgan then made farther coarse anti disgusting allusions, and inquired whether he had ever been at the " Judge and Jury," at the Gairick's Head, to hear the mock trials. The brother replied in the affirmative; whereupon Mor gan gave an imitation, in his own person, assuming the character of Chief Baron Nicholson, counsel on both sides, witnesses and jury, of a mock trial of the plaintiff, and eventually gave a verdict for the defen dant. The mother of the plaintiff confidently as serted, that although her daughter was very much subject to colds and occasional debility, yet that her general state of health was in ao way inferior to that of other females. Legal proceedings were ultimately had recourse to, but so strong was the attachment of the plaintiff that, with the fond hope that the de fendant might return to his better self and his better feeling, she gave instructions for the discontinuance of the proceedings. Disappointment, however, awaited her, and a second writ of summons was issued, which had resulted in the present proceedings. The above outline of the history of the case was fully borne out by the witnesses who were examined. Mr. M. CHAMBERS, on the part of the defendant, submitted that his client had done no more than every clearly-sighted and well-intentioned man would have done under the like circumstances. After an ac quaintance of some months, the defendant f oun d that the plaintiff had such delicate health, that were they to sicklymarry wife, a i ruin couscyldkblut family, resul and no end of result. l.ongdoctor's bills,a misery and wretchedness must be entailed upon him self and the lady, if they were to marry. That was the view defendant had taken; and upon that im pression he had acted. The defendant was a young tradesman just straggling into life, having a capital to commence with, which he had borrowed from the Fishmongers' Company at Si per cent. per annum for four years. What was such a capital when op posed to the evils he would have rendered himself liable to, had he united his fate andlais fortunes with those of the plaintiff? Ruin—noth = ing bat ruin. In his opinion the defendant had acted like a man of ex treme prudence and foresight, for ending, from the state of health of the plaintiff that little, if anything less, short of misery and ruin could result from his union with her he had had the moral and the pruden tial courage to take his stand ere it was too late. That was the position of matters,, and it was for the jury to say whether, under the circumstances, they could award more than nominal damages. If they were to give any substantial dam ages—they were laid at 6001.—their verdict would coniclemn the defendant to bankruptcy, from the effects of which he might never be able to recover. Mr. BaronROLFE summed up, and said, that the only question was the amount of compensation they would give to a young female situ,ated as the plaintiff was. The jury soon returned a verdict for the plaintiff. —Damages 1001. SHERIFFS' COURY; Jan. 27. (Before Mr. Under-Sheriff BuncnELL.) UREACH OP PROMISE OF MARRIAGE.-..ROGERS V. BAT- CEIELLOZ. This was an action to recover compensation in damages for a breach of promise of marriage. The damages were laid at 500/., and the present proceed ing (judgment having been allowed to go by default) was to assess the amount to be awarded. Mr. O'Malley was for the plaintiff, and Mr. W. Cooke for the defendant. As a singular feature in this case no witness was rri called. The parties had co onded for about seven years, and numerous letters passed on both sides. Several letters were taken aik idence, and the facts, as far as they were disolosed,:ware gathered from the epistles so admitted. It appeared that in 1842 the' defendant, who was stated to beilOW twenty-six years of age, and a clerkin a railwairoetneinzharjng been removed front one'btlice in Liverpool' to — another in London, had promised the plainti ff (Miss Maria' Louisa Rogers) to marry ber. He was respectably connected at Liverpool, and had been in India. The plaintiff's mother and sister had gone to Ame rica, and she had stayed in England on his account. The letters were worded in a sober manner for such epistles, and breathed much affection ; the defendant giving the plaintiff credit for the sacrifice she had made by remaining in this country on his account, and expressing his intention to marry her. The de fendant had some years ago obtained a situation in a railway company at Liverpool, which had been in creased in value, and he was now at the station in Lon don. The last three letters read were dated in August last, they breathed not the same hopes as the former; the latter declined from " My dearest Maria," to " Dear Miss Rogers." Mr. O'MALLEY asked the jury to consider the damage the plaintiff had sustained. For seven years she had lived on hopes, and when the defendant's circumstances prospered then he felt that she had not a fortune, as he hinted in one of his letters, and that he was not aware that she had made any arrangements for him. She had stayed in England, had wasted the seven best years of her life, and now he had discarded her. He trusted that the jury would not let the plea of poverty, which would be urged by the defendant's counsel, prevail, but would give substantial damages for the injury sustained. Mr. COOKE, on the part of the defendant, complained , of the meagre state in which the case had been pre sented. No witness had been called ; all rested on the letters admitted. There was no evidence to shove the defendant's: position, further than that h e was a clerk. There was , no evidence that the defendant had discarded her, or had married another. On the con • trary,.he could inform the jury that he was as ready as he ever had been to marry the plaintiff. Mr. O'MALLer, interrupting, said the defendant had not expressed his readiness ; on the contrary, he had admitted his breach of promise, and they were assem bled to assess the amount of damages to be awarded for such breach. Mr. Coors declared that he could now state that he had not, further than was implied by the present action, broken his promise. .... . . . . The Learned Usinsa-Snlenirr remarked that it was not now too late for the parties to be married. Mr. O'MALLey said there was a case in the Exche quer some time back, in which the defendant stated that he was ready to marry the party bringing the ac tion, but it was held tnat such an offer would not ope rate against the action. . _ _ Mr.Cooas remarked on the absence of evidence. Ile plaintiff had a married sister in London, and had she been called, he could have shown that it had been by her meddling conduct that the action had been brought. The defendant, in fact, was ready to fulfil his promise, but his circumstances would not permit him to marry at present, and the remark made re• specting the want of a fortune was to show (as the Learned Gentleman expressed) " that there was no thing to make the pot boil." The defendant had pre ferred a single life to a married state of poverty, and he was sure that in estimating the damages the jury would have respect to the situation in life of the de fendant, and not by giving large damages consign him to prison. It was a case for very moderate damages. The Learned Uapwa_Suaasrr, in placing the case before the jury, told them th a t it h a d been presented in a very meagre form. There was no doubt a breach of promise had been committed, and their protince was to award com pensation for such a breach. It was a case for fair ,end reasonable damages after a ,correspondence of seven years and the attachment the plaintiff had evinced by staying in this country when her family went to America. The jury retired for nearly two hours, and on their return into court at seven o'clock, assessed the damages at 641. IRISH SPECIAL COMMISSION. CLONMEL, JAN. 25 . —The following is the address of the Chief Justice to the grand jury, delivered yes terday evening : ~ me. Foreman, and gentlemen of the grand jury of the county of Tipperary —I regret that the amount o f t he business in Limerick prevented me from meet ing you here at the hour appointed for opening the special commission. We have done all in our power, and I believe with success, to avoid personal incon venience to you from the alteration of the hour named for opening the proceedings. This is the last county in which, as I understand, the powers of this special commission shall be carried into execution. The ;lelay in coming here will, I trust, be compensated for by the publicity which the proceedings in Limerick and Clare have already obtained, and by the time allowed for serious and salutary reflection on these proceedings. Indeed, this commission has attracted such intense interest that there can be no doubt that the disturbers of the public peace, or those who have aided in, or who are the authors of these disturbances, are already well aware of what has been done —of how much has been suffered—and of how much remains to be suffered. Hardened, indeed, must they be in guilt--utterly abandoned to wicked ness must they be, if they can view without conster nation and dismay the irresistible power of justice in the terrible punishment that has been awarded to those whose fate it is now for them to decide whether they will avoid or follow. If among the delusions which wicked men have practised on them selves, or that has been practised on them by others, the hope of impunity or escape rested on the belief that through terror the jurors would not do their duty, enough, and more than enough, has occurred to show how utterly vain and how utterly groundless is that expectation. In the counties of Clare and Limerick the constitutional tribunals of the country discharged their duty with firmness, by fear, an d consci entiously, unmoved as uaexas perated as if all around them were repose and peace. In almost every case tried there was a conviction. And why ? Because in almost every case the charge was supported by a mass of evidence which made the conviction of the prisoner a mat ter admitting of no doubt. That evidence was given by witnesses who spoke the truth, and spoke it fearlessly. From those c ircums tances I augur fa vourably with respect to those counties and their future prospects; because in the conduct of those witnesses I think, at least, I see a reviving confidence in the power and authority of the l aw , and a resolu tion to resist what has become so intolerable as to awaken and arouse them to self-protection and self defence. Circumstances which transpired on some of those trials I advert to to strengthen me in this hope. In many instances it appeared that families, with intrepid bravery and complet e s uccess, resist e d th e assailants of their habitations, defeated their attacks, and in some instances made prisoners of the assailants, and delivered them bound lute the hands of justice. These, gentlemen, are encouraging considerations, and they should be so to you, for in no essential par ticular does the condition o f your countyappear to me to differ from that of Limerick and Clare. Such publicity has been given to our proceed ings that I doubt not you are aware of the observations which, on a similar occasion to the present, were addressed b:, the Lord Chief Baron and myself to the grand juries of the Icounties of Limerick and Clare. I shall, therefore, assume that so far as those observations can be useful for your guidance or instruction they are already substantially known to you, and I shall not trouble or delay you by repeating them. 1 stated as my con- VOGS AND DAMP AIX.

S VEr JAN uAR 1 28 1848. viction that a principal object of the illegal confede racy by which this country is overrun and disgraced was the frustration of the rights and remedies of landlords. I remain of that opinion. It has been confirmed by all I have seen. Whether this con federacy originated 'with the class whose dishonest purposes it seeks to effectuate, or whether, having been originated and found, its powers were employed to accomplish its dishonest and fraudulent designs, is of very little moment. Suffice it to say that, in order to accomplish the design of defrauding the landlords of their legal rights, and frustrating their legal remedies, scarcely any crime has not been com mitted. In the prosecution of that design the most frightful murders have been perpetrated. But what shall be said of those by whom this sanguinary spirit has been awakened, cherished, and matured ? They have found it ungovernable, and they are them.. selves the first to feel its cruelty, and to sink under its oppression. We have been engaged for nearly three weeks in administering the criminal law in the counties of Limerick and Clare; and during that time, with very, very few exceptions, the persons aggrieved have been farmers of the lower class. Not persons of rank, opulence, or power ; but persons of the very class and rank by whom those assassins, and their illegal confederacy, have been supported ; and they themselves have become the victims of the very power which was created for the destruction of others. I say with deep regret that the scenes we have witnessed have pressed on my mind the dreadful truth, that demoraliaation prevails to a greater ex= tent, and to a much deeper degree than I thought when I opened this commission. It can answer no purpose to go into details. They can be read in the reports of the trials that have taken place under the commission, by those who wish to be informed On this subject. But I will shortly, and in a few words; advert to some of the circumstances that have transpired. What do thejc.ahlaw ua 2. That human: • life irtlftstste 4laeels has become the -. Subject of barter —that human life .has had a price fixed upon it. We have witnessed the attacks on human life. We have witnessed the preparation for the attack, the consum mation of the deed itself, and the escape of the mur derers. We have witnessed the conspiracy to murder, with scarcely an attempt at secrecy. We have seen the conspiracy to murder plotted and planned—that many persons were present—that women and chil dren, whole families, were present at it. We have seen the assassin hired and brought from a distance. We have seen him and his companions stalk abroad in the daylight in a populous country, armed, and scarcely disguised, his purpose known to every man who saw him. We have seen the victim approach to the place where the assassin lay in ambush for laim, but there was no voice to warn him—no hand to protect him. The bloody deed is perpetrated under the eyes of .hundreds of people, yet, after all, the assassin walks off observed, but undetected ! Nay, as if to consummate the atrocity and infamy of all this, the murderer is housed, sheltered, protected, and preserved for further deeds of destruction. I can scarcely trust myself to speak upon this subject, or to detail to you any of the horrid crimes that have been committed—of which the proofs were laid before us in the neighbouring counties. But I will give,you one instance, in the simplest words I can use. His Lordship here de• tailed the circumstances relative to the murder of the liourigans, and caused a thrill of horror to run through the court by recital. He then continued— Gracious Heaven ! would that those things were not, or that we could expunge them from our memory. .Yes; there does seem to be a demon spirit let loose on the land. The spirit of vengeance rages without control. And no wonder, when those crimes are ex tenuated, palliated, and excused. Nay more, we see tow the spirit has gone forth. People are told of the wild justice of revenge,' a phrase which has now obtained credit and currency as if it was a great moral truth. Now ; not to dwell upon the audacious impiety of man arrogating to himself the exercise of that which belongs only to man's Maker—without stopping to dwell upon the profanity of the sacred name of justice by assoeiating it with the idea of revenge—see what that principle means, and what it is intended to mean. It means this—that murder is just—that rapine is just—that cruelty is just—that any and every crime is just—provided only that revenge be the motive, and its gratification the object. I regret to think that such a precept as this should have been -issued to our ignorant, turbulent, and excitable fellow-creatures. How do they understand it? They understand it as it was meant to se understood. A men becomes the judge and the avenger of his own wrong. And the conse quences are what might have been expected. l'he innocent fall by the arm of the assassin ; and the assassin, his accomplices, and the con spirators, in their turn, fall by th e arm of the law. Now, Gentlemen, why is it that I have addressed ou ? First, it is because, though I hope matters are not so bad with you generally, I fear that in many [stases they are so ; I would impress upon your minds the necessity of exertion to suppress this dreadful evil. Towards that object I will make a suggestion to you. I would ask you whether this state of things is not absolutely intolerable ? I would ask you whe ther it can be endured ? I would also ask, is there any exertion too great—is there any sacrifice too extensive —any price too high to pay in order to get rid of this dreadful evil, and substitute the permanent blessings of peace and tranquillity ? I know that you will answer that there is no price too high, no sacrifice or exertion too great, provided that important object can be accomplished. Now, gentlemen, so far is respects the administration of the criminal law, and so far as regards the prevention of crime by the power which its punishment inspires, no person can have stronger confidence in the administration of the law with this view than I have, or of the necessity and propriety of vindicating it, and of vigorously arraying its power against its violators— and so far as our experience goes, its speedy and effective administration promises to be attended with success; but I am perfectly confident of this—that even if the law be applied in the most vigorous and effectual manner, and if the power of its punishment be adequate to the repression of these outrages, you could not calculate on more than the temporary repression of them. The experience of your own county in particular tells you that notwithstanding the vigorous and effective administration of the law in it from term to term, as if the flame but smouldered, it has broken out with renewed strength and increased violence. Therefore, in my judgment the effectual suppression of these mischiefs at this moment, and the prevention of their recurrence, demand the active co operation of those who are the friends of peace and order. See what the power of combination for evil is, you should try what the power of combi nation is for good. I would humbly suggest the formation of associations to preserve the peace in parishes or lesser districts ; and that to these associa tions every man should be admitted who wishes to become a member of them. I enter not into the de tails of the application of this association—of the mode in which it may be made an auxiliary to the police, or the manner in which it may be brought to bear upon the suppression or prevention of crime. But of this' I am perfectly assured—that there are no means immediately within your power, or within the power of the friends of order and peace, that are so immediately capable of being put into execution, or that are so likely to be effectual when they are put into execution. I would ask you to use your own exertions to prevent crime without punishing it—to try whether there be not within your powers the means to prevent crime. Because, if those means are within your power, I .must say an awful responsi bility rests upon you if you do not endeavour to make them available for purposes of such inestimable importance. With respect to the particular cases to come before you, there is only one to which I need call your attention. That is, where a person is charged with being an accessory after the fact, you will take care, in investigating that case, to be satis fied of two things—you will see that the evidence supports the indictment in two main points. First, that the crime has been committed—there will pro bably be no difficulty on that ground. But, in the next place, you cannot find a bill in the case, unless you are satisfied that the party charged with her bouring a felon knew he committed a felony . _ that you must see that the accused had actual know ledge of the fact, but that the circumstan ces under which he harboured the felon leave a natural and probable presumption that he knew him to be guilty ' of a felony. Now, in conclusion , I will draw your attention to two clauses of two different Acts of Par liament—the object of which is the prevention of crime, and therefor , of much importance. The matter is the snore important, too, be cause it has been only recently brought under public notice, and be cause the law I refer to is peculiarly adapted to the state of the country, and the persons by whom crime is committed. The 60th of George 111 , section 7, gives magistrates the power to arrest strangers, and commit them to prison if they do not satisfactorily ac count for themselves. Yeti all know the importance of that power, because it is a notorious fact that when persons will not perpetrate crime with their hands, for fear of being recognised, nor by the hands of individuals in their neighbourhood, lest they also might be known, they call in the assistance of sten gers, and the crime is perpetrated through their in strumentality. The -other clause to which I 'have i alluded is a clause in the Whiteboy Act, which gives magistrates the power to compel persons to give in ft rmation—l mean the 15th and 16th George 111., chap. 21, section 22. That Act authorises justices of the peace to summon any person suspected of being able to give evidence under the act, to examine him ox oath, and bind him to prosecute at the assizes ; and if he refuses to submit to examination, or to be bound to prosecute, then the magistrate is authorised to commit him till he is discharged by due course of law. Gentlemen, there are powers for the prevention of crime, end to enable magistrates to procure infor mation, and they are very important provisions—they should not be allowed to remain a dead letter on the statute-book. If they are properly carried out, they will be productive of great benet.t, and tend most materially to repress crime and disorder when they first appear. His Lordship concluded with some gen stal observations upon the duties of grand jurors. The judges took their seats on the Bench this morning at 10 o'clock, and immediately afterwards the grand pane l was called over. The attendance of jurors was pretty good. A great number of those summoned to serve as petty jurors were gentlemen of the grand jury class. MURDER OP Ma. WlLLuss ROE.—John Lonergan , a man about thirty years of age, was placed at the bar charged with the wilful murder of Mr. William Roe, at Boytonrath, in this county, on the 2d of Oct. last, by inflicting a mortal wound with a gunshot ; a second count in the indictment charged that an unknown person fired the fatal shot, the prisoner having been present aiding and assisting. A jury having been sworn after several challenges on the part of the prisoner, the Attorney- General stated the facts of the case. George Roe, Esq., examined by the Solicitor- General—l am cousin to the late Mr. Wm. Roe, and was his agent. I remember the time the pri soner's holding was taken possession of by the sheriff fca' Wolutt,of zent, on the day cousin was itfot, I heard of the murder at about ftelve o'clock. The holdings of the prisoner and his brothers were opposite my . place at Belleview, on the other side of the road, and a mile and a half from Rockwell, Mr. Roe's residence. He usually lived at Kingstown, but was two days in the country at the time of the murder. He got possession of the land held by the prisoner, and was on it the day before the murder, and was going to it the day the murder was perpetrated. On going to my place he should pass James Loner gan's gate and the widow Lonergan's house. There were at some distance the ruins of Kate Daly's house, and the body was found between that and James Lonergan's house. I heard a shot some time before I heard of the murder, but my attention was not ex cited, it was so common to hear shots a t th e time. When I beard of the murder I ran towards the place, and saw some persons round the body. Cross-examined by Mr. ROLLESTON—The action brought by my cousin at the last assizes against the prisoner was not defended. Kate Daly, the ruins of whose house I spoke of, was badly off, and I got possession from her. I gave her a pound to go to America. There were other houses also thrown down, the owners having got money to take them to America. I had a .conversation with the prisoner about getting compensation from Mr. Roe. I offered him 101. before the record to give up possession, but he refused. After the habere he asked some com pensation, but Mr. Roe then declined to give him any. I told the prisoner I would speak to Mr. Roe again and endeavour to get him something. That was a day or two, before Mr. Roe went to Dublin. The prisoner said he wanted to go to America. Samuel M. Going, Esq., swore that he was sub sheriff of the county at the time the habere was executed. The prisoner kicked a vessel of water out of the hands of one of the bailiffs, with which he was going to quench the fire. • Witness gave him into custody on his doing that ; Wand before he. went away, after giving Mr. Roe - possession, he asked him whether he would send the prisoner to gaol, but Mr. Roe requested him not to do so. The prisoner before that had some angry altercation with Mr. - Roe. Judith Grady, examined by the ATTORNEY-GENE.. am,—l lived at Carrigeen in September last. I saw the prisoner in the.house of John Lonergan (Maurice), some time before the murder. Other girls and I were w:srking for Mr:-„Roe on land that had been taken from him by the prisoner's brother. The ' prisoner asked for pen and ink from the man of the house, who asked him what he wanted with it. He replied that he would tell him by and bye. I said that Mr. Carey had given notice to a great number of persons at Carrigeen, and to the Lonergans .among others. The prisoner s iid, "If they meet one person honest, they will not find others so ; and if there was a few blackbirds' lessened, the rest would be easy— it's only a made up matter between them. Mr. Roe was the first to begin ; himself will he the first to fall. I hope he won't reign long—l think he won't." The day before that I saw him in his brother's, next to his own old house, with fire arms in his hands. ilalloran, the steward Mr. Roe put over us, and others saw him also. Cross examined by Mr. ROLLESTON—My father is dead, my mother lives on the public when she can't get hire. We have no land. I lodge in Clonmel now, in the house with the police. Mary Quirk, examined by the SOLICITOR-GENERAL —I was servant to Mr. Lonergan, at the time of the murder. Between ten and eleven o'clock on that morning I was sent for water, and had to pass by James Lonergan's house at the plantation. The first person I saw after I left the house was the prisoner, John Lonergan, standing beside Paul Cantwell's house, inside the road. He came out on the road, ssluted me, and passed on in the directio where the body was feund. When I got as far as the widow Lonergan's gate, I saw two boys come oat with an ass and cart, and met Mr. William Roe coming from Rockwell, near the ruins of Holly's house, which had been pulled down. Mr. Roe passed me on the road, and went on in the direction of where his body was found. On my return with the water I met John Lonergan, the widow's son, running towards Racket's house with a hatchet in his hand. As I was going home I saw the body of Mr. Roe on the ground, and saw a man whom I did not know passing the body. I left the water in William Lonergan's house. I went to Belleview to tell them of what happened. Cross-examined by Mr. ROLLESTON. —I was taken up by the police for the murder of my child. Mr. Roe (not the deceased) was the father of that child. I had four children, who are all dead but one. I never was married. My children all died young. The police told me that there was a reward in this case, 813/. Con Loughnane was taken on the same day with me; James Quirk was also taken, but John Lonergan, the widow's son, was not. To the SOLICITOR- GaNERAL—I was only kept in custody one night on the charge about the child. I never was sworn against for it. Thomas Norris, examined by Mr. SCOTT, Q.C.— I was in the employment of the late Mr. Wm. Roe. On the day before his death I was on my way from Rockwell to Belleview, and near Maurice Lonergan's house, I met James Lonergan, brother to the Ipri soner, and near the widow Lonergan's gate I saw the prisoner come out upon the road from the plantation. When I came up near him he went in again to the ditch. He came out twice on the, road, and looked towards Rockwell. On returning from Belleview to Rockwell I saw the prisoner going through the plan tation from the direction of the widow's house. Be fore that I met my master on the road opposite the plantation, near where the body was afterward found, and accompanied him along the road towards Belle view. I was walking at the plantation side of my master. Cross-examined by Mr. ROLLESTON—I didn't see the prisoner in the ditch, but convenient to it. Edward Mahony, a boy about twelve or fourteen years of age, was examined by Mr. SAUSSE, and de posed that on the morning of the murder he was minding turnips for his master, Timothy Loughnane, opposite Mr. Roe's plantation, when the prisoner passed down from his brother's house. As he passed he told witness that any one could steal the turnips while he was there. After that, he saw the prisoner lying on the top of the ditch, between James Loner gan's and Kirby's. In about an hour after that he heard a shot up near the plantation, and saw the smoke of it. On coming to the road after that he saw the body of Mr. Roe. Cross examined by Mr. ROLLESTON —My father is dead, and my mother - lives on the public. Since the murder I have lived with the police at Cahir. They are better masters than Tim Loughnane. . The trousers I wear I got from the police. Judith Sullivan was the next witness. She was examined by the Attorney-,General, and deposed that on the day before the murder she was in the house of James Lonergan, brother to the prisoner, and saw the latter fixing a gun in the room. She saw him the next day at eleven o'clock in the outhouse of Juhn Lonergan, where be lived. He cams in while she was there, and told them (his wife, the children, and herself) to go out. He left the house before her, and when she went out she saw him taking off his coat (a blue frock), and throw it inside the ditch. In about half an hour after that she heard a shot, and in some time, while she was sitting in James Lonergans house, she heard the noise of a person passing by the back of the house. Cross-examined by Mr. ROLLESTON—James Lo nergan's wife is my aunt. The prisoner never charged ,me or my sister with stealing money from him.

GENERAL—WeII, leave it to herself. The question was repeated, but the witness, who still wept bitterly, would not answer. The CHIEF JUSTICE then ordered her to be re moved for the present, arid that another witness should be called in the meantime. John Elliot deposed that on the day of the murder, about eleven or twelve o'clock, he saw a man he took to be the prisoner coming from the direction of Boy tonrath towards the Golden-road •through the fields. He pulled up one of his stockings and appeared to - be a little red in the face, but he always thought him to be a little red. Cross-examined by Mr. ROLLESTON—The man he took to be the prisoner had not his coat off; he wore a grey frock coat. ' Mary Lonergan, the little girl, was here placed upon the table again, and asked by the Solicitor- General if she saw any person in the plantation whom she knew, but she still continued to cry, and-made no answer. After being reminded by the Chief Justice that she was sworn to tell the truth, the question was repeated, and she said, "I did not." CHIEF JUSTICE —Let her go now; she has made up her mind to swear that, and there is no use in con tinuing this . some. - _ _ . __ . - - _ . The SOLICITOR-GENERA L —W e II, if you did net see any person in the plantation, did you in the field near it 2—The witness made no reply. Cater Jusiics—Come, stop crying; you must answer the question. The auestion was repeated a number of times, and every effort was made to obtain an answer, but she still refused to reply. 4 The SOLICITOR-GENERAL told her that she should be sent to prison unleds she answered the question. Mr. ROLLESTON objected to any coercion being used towards the witness. The CHIEF JUSTICE said there was no coercion at tempted. It was perfectly plain, from her informa tions, and what now appeared, that this was an at tempt to defeat the administration of justice. The witness was then removed, and ordered to be brought up again in the morning. Michael Cantwell, a boy about eleven or twelve years of age, was next called, and examined by Mr. SAUSSE. He deposed that, on the morning of the murder, he saw John Loner gan , th e pr i soner, l y i ng on the .. ditch between his brother's field and James Kirby's. He left that, and was going towards James Loner gan's gate, when Mr. Roe, who was walking, came along the road with a gun in his hand. In ten minutes after that he heard a shot. He saw Mr. Roe on the road after dead. Cross-examined by Mr. ROLLLESTON.—I live with the police now, but they did not tell me what to swear. Constable Connor gave me an orange as I was coming on the table to swear, but he never gave me one before. I never told any person that Mr. Roe shot himself. It was before my breakfast I saw the prisoner in the ditch. It was after breakfast when I saw him again. The case is still (six o'clock) being proceeded with. It is likely to occupy a good deal of to-morrow, if not the whsle day. [PRICE 3D. A POLICEMAN MURDERED. NORWICH, JAN. 26.--A case of this description, in which - an assault has been made on a police constable, has just occurred in the county of Norfolk, and it seems impossible, according to the opinion of Mr Cricktuay, surgeon, who was called in to attend, that the man ca❑ live the night out.' The Catton division of the rural constabulary extend to the separate jurisdiction of Norwich, and about one mile from this city is stationed police-constable Emms, No. 109. Another village in this division is Ilasford, and here reside a family of labouring men, named Willemot; one of this family was robbed about a fortnight ago of a considerable sum of money, and suspicion fell upon two of his nephews Application was made to a neighbouring magistrate, and warrants were granted to apprehend the younger Willemots, on suspicion of having committed this offence. These warrants were given to police constable Emms, and he, in company with another officer, named Garrod, went a few mornings - since, very early, to the house where they resided, for the purpose of apprehending them: They found them at home, and in bed ; but they refused to let in the officers, who in consequence broke open the ,door, and pro ceeded to take them into custody. The Willemots prepared for active and determined resistance, except one, who made his escape by the chamber window. Even the mother, it seems, resisted, though she re mained in her bed, and was observed by Emms to have armed herself with a bludgeon. The remaining sons commenced a desperate fight, from which Garrod fled, leaving his comrade to battle it with his opponents. Emms succeeded in capturing them, but not until he had received a severe blow ou the head, which, however, at the time, was not considered mortal. The two Willemots were taken before the magistrates, and remanded to the Castle, until the evidence should be more complete, and Emms should be able to appear against them. He has since been getting worse, and is dying. The magistrates, with their clerk, Mr. Kerrison, are about to proceed to Emms's house to take his depositions, and the relatives of Emma, who reside in this city, are also about to proceed to Spkowston, to take, as they ex pect, their last farewell of him. The Willemot who absconded has not yet been apprehended, nor are we aware of any reward having yet ben offered for his capture. . LOSS OF Two LIVES AT Bow BREWERY.—Yes terday Mr. Baker, the Coroner, received information of the following melancholy occurrence, which took place on Tuesday evening last, at the brewery of Messrs. Abbott and Son, Bow, by which two men of the names of Wm. Clark and Richard Simms, who were in the employment of the firm, unfortunately losttheitrle vatives It was their duty to clean out one of the vats, in the department, which contains about 291 barrels, prepara tory to being filled with ale. They were last seen about five o'clock, when they were going to the vat to remove the grain in it. About an hour afterwards, as they were not to be found anywhere, it occurred to a man named Tabes, who observed their candle in the rat, that they had fallen in. He looked down, when he ob served them both lying at the bottom of the vat, which is a depth of twenty-five feet. He gave the alarm, upon which several men ran to his assistance. He (Tabes) was lowered by a rope tied round his body, when he got them both out, but at a great risk of the loss of his own life. They neither of them showed any signs of life. By this time Mr. E. Abbott heard of the distressing ac cident, upon which he sent for several medical gentle men, who were promptly in attendance, but could afford no assistance. It is supposed that, as Sims was in the vat under Clarke he must have gone down first, and that being overpowered by the mephitic or carbonic acid gas, that Clarke went to his assistance, when they were both overcome. Clarke was foreman of that de partment, and had been in the service about five years. He was well acquainted with the danger, and was often cautioned to be careful. He has left a widow and three children. MEMOIRS OF MADEMOISSELLE DI MONTPBNSTER. —WRITTEN BY HERSELF.—An English version of this remarkable work has just been published by Mr. Col burn, The chronicles of Courts have always a strong and peculiar attraction. They enable the humble many to dive into the recesses of palaces, and to obtain a cor rect idea of the every-day life of the great and privileged few. Among the treasures of this kind no work perhaps could be fould more likely to interest the general, or instruct the curious reader, than these "Memotrs of Montpensier," niece of Queen Henrietta Maria, with whom she was on term s of close intimacy, and whose sayings and doings ske frequently records. H er memoirs are so full of t he stirring incidents that arose out of the cabals of the Court, and the political and love intrigues of the time, that they may be said to present one of the most striking pictures of the period ever given to the world. The frankness, too, with which this high-spinted Princess relates all her own remarkable a dventures, and the curious anecdotes she relates of so many royal, noble, and distinguished personages in• e luding in particular Charles the Se con d, g i ve an irre sistible charm to the work. ADVENTURES OF A MEDICAL ►STUDENT.—The lovers of the wild and wonderful will peruse with great interest the reinarkable'work just published under the above title. It is the production of a surgeon in the Royal Navy, embodying his own experiences and adven. tures, which appear to have been most singularly striking and romantic. Certainly nothing more graphic and ex citing than these " Ad%entures of a Medical Student" have been submitted to the readQr since the celebrated " Diary of a Late Physician." THE GREAT BRIDGE ON THE RIIINE.—The waters of the Rhine are at present so low, that the foundations of the piers of the great bridge, which the Emperor Constantine had built over the river in the year 308, are visible. Active search is at present being made .to discover some remains of the bridge thiown over the Rhine by Julius Caesar, but hitherto without result. 1 • F• i t .I 1 1 . , , . i, i i i 1
