MORNING SUN HISTORY. OF THE O'DONNELLS OF SPAIN. General O'Donnell, whom the recent disturbances in Spain has again brought before the world, is descended from an ancient Irish family of the county of Donegal, in the province of Ulster. The beautiful castle, which was built by them near the town of Donegal, about the 12th century, still remains, and• is the chief ornament to the present day. The stately monastery for Fran ciscan Friars of the Observantine Order, founded in 1474 by Hugh Roe, son of O'Donnell, Prince of Tyr connell, remains at a small distance from the town, and attests by its ruins its former architectural beauty. The most remarkable features in this edifice are the two narrow passages, one built over the other, and which seem to have been places for depositing valuable effects in time of danger ; the upper one is covered with stones laid along on the beams of stone that cross it, and the lower one with stones laid across on the walls, each of them exactly after the Egyptian manner of building. Here the pious Roderic O'Donnell, Bishop of Derry, died in the Franciscan habit, and on the Sth of October, 1550, was buried in the place. The O'Donnells, ancient and honourable of name, lay claim to a Royal Milesian descent, and deduce their lineage from the common ancestor of the O'Nials, Earls of Tyrone (originally Kings of Ulster), and the O'Melaghans, Kings of Meetly. Without dwelling, however, on so remote an era, we may remark that Hugh-Roe ('Donnell, the celebrated Prince of Tyr tunnel), was one of the most extraordinary men that Ireland ever knew, and that a long line of ancestry bearing his name blaze in the annals of that kingdom, renowned for chivalry and bravery in arms. Turbulence teems to hare been the leading charac teristic of the O'Donnells, and desperate enterprise their delight. At a time when their history becomes clear and traceable, viz., in the reign of our Elizabeth, we find one of this redoubtable family bidding defiance to the English Government, and refusing to admit any Sheriff into his district. To compel his submission, the Council at Dublin had not sufficient troops, and Sir John Perrot, therefore, resolved to en trap him or his son by stratagem. The Lord Deputy accomplished this object thus : He sent a bhip freighted with Spanish wines to Done gal, the captain of which entertained all who would partake of his liberality. Young O'Donnell, with a couple of his companions, accepted the invitation, and when overcome with wine were made prisoners, and conveyed as host ages to Dublin for the chief of Tyr connell. But prison-bars and castle-durance little pleased the heart of an O'Donnell, and at last, with many other hostages, he escaped again to Donegal, and soon after he had lAnded at the blue bay of his home stead was invested with the chieftaincy of Tyrcoanell, and took in marriage the daughter of O'Nial, chief of broad T) rope. In 1600 O'N,al met O'Donnell and the Spanish emissary Oviele, at his castle in Donegal, upon the ar rival of supplies from Spain at Killybegs, to concert the plan of a rebellion. Shortly after this, the English taking advantage of O'Donnell's ab sence in Connaught, marched a strong party to Donegal, and took possession of their monastery, which was unsuccessfully assaulted by O'Donnell. Opliged by the stress of circumstances to take refuge in. Spain, the O'Donnells embarked with the Spaniards at. Kinsale, leaving the English in undisturbed pos seision. . . In this newly-adopted country, retaining all the chivalry of their ancestors, they followed the military profession, relying upon it for ari increase to their fame, and when the British army landed in the Peninsula in 1807, four brothers held commissions in the Spanish service, viz, Henry, Charles, Joseph, and Alexander. Henry O'Donnell first served under Gem Blake in 1809, and the part which he took in the relief of Gerona, at the head of the Ultonia regiment, brat brought him and General Saarsfield into notice. In 1810, he was appointed to the command in Catalonia, where he created an army and held the French in check. Defeated on the plains of Vich, by General Sou ham, and afterwards successful at the village of Abishal, for which he wa created Count Abishal, he had the glory of witnessing the surrender of a whole French co lumn under the command of Gen. Schwartz. The Cata lonians were justly proud of this gallant deed, and he became with them a great favourite. Deprived of his command in 1811, he wal next year named a member of the Regency, bat towards the close of the war re- I joioed the army, and commanded at the capture of Pancorvo. On the return of Ferdinand VII. his full rank was confirmed, and fresh honours bestowed on him. After holdinz, the command of the Army of the Bidoasse, he was placed at the .head of the troops des tined for an expedition against South America. In thfirtommand it is believed that he acted an equivocal part, by first siding with the mutineers and then betray iag'them. The Constitutionalists roundly affirm that he had pledged himself to their interests, and was en gaged in the conspiracy of 1819. After the restora tion, Count de Abishal retired to France, and died at Montpellier, May 17, 1834. This title becarneextinet in the person of his son, who was shot, and whom we shall notice afterwards. Charles O'Donnell, the second brother, and a staunch Royalist, commanded a division of the Army of the Faith in 1822, when he experienced a defeat. During the War of Independence he held command in Valencia, and at the Peace was made Captain-General of Old Castile. He hal four sons, three Royalists and. one a Christino. Of the three Royalist sons, Pepe—who followed Ids King to Portugal, and passed through Englend, and afterwards organized the Cellist cavalry—was killed while pursuing a party of carabineers into Paropeluna; the second was bathe rous y massacred at Barcelona, and the third joined Charles V. in the August of 1836, in Guipuscoa. The Christino brother, who some days ago occupied the for tress of Pampeluna, was wounded some time since in an action in the northern provinces, and in 1837 held the rank of brigadier in the Queen's service. Charles O'Donnell, the father, it is believed, died of a broken heart on hearing the late of his teo sons. He had pte vinuAly been smitten to the soul by the event of one of them joining that party to which he had himself been always opposed. Joseph O'Donnell, the third brother and a Royalist, embraced the patriotic cause, aid commanded at the battle of Castalla in 1812, where he was defeated by Marshal Suchet. Ile commanded the lines of San Roque in 1820, and pursued and attacked Riego, who was then traversing the lower part of Andalusia with fifteen hundred men. His reccontres being dubious he fell into disgrace with the Constitutionalists, and on their gaining the ascendancy he retired into private life. Alexander O'Donnell, the fourth and youngest bro ther,of Count of de Abishal, joined the French , and commanded a Spanish regiment, to which Joseph Na• poleqn, gave his own name. Having been sent to the campaign of Moscow he was taken prisoner, and the Emperor Alexander having ordered all the Spaniards formerly belonging to the French army to to collected into one corps, which by special permission assumed his name, the comman d was con f erre d up o n C o l one l Alex. onnell, and h e sa il e d w i t h hi s reg i men t for Spain. This distinction saved him from the Afrancesadoes, and his rank was confirmed. Alexander has two sons, Pepe and Emilio, officers in the Urban Gilar y ds a • t Seville. In the instanc e which fellows, as sell as those al luded to above, of brothers opposed to each other in these deadly strifes, this larnii y mill ever stand as a me lancholy example of the consequences of civil dissension. At the action of Alsazua, a small town in the centre o f Borunda, eight leapies north- w Pampeluna,and s it ua ted on the heft of th e river wl:i:e t h of eiees name to the district, Zumalaearregui, on the ci of April, met with the Chris t'nos,who showed a disposition fice u withdraw . to wards the forest. " They dare not outZ u - malaearregui, and with all p oss ibl e speed ru s hed w ith his men , crying "a lii halioncla The forward ood was cleared ; the Christinos were pursued, and naked steel worked its vengeance. - Among the officers was Colonel Leopold O'Donnell, only son of Count Abishal. When taken be was running up a hill, but the ground beini; broken, his foot slipped, an d be fell. At this moment half a dozen Carhiat soldiers and a serjeant called on him to surrender. O'Don nell did not rise, but in . an inclin e d pos ture begged his li fe, saying, Todos zooms ttos—' todos sontos herntanos." Zunaalacarregui fell back upon Echerri-Aranaz, and here the fate of the prisoner s was decided. He sen t to the nearest Christino autho rity a formal notice that he should order O'Donnell and ether.officers and men to be shot, by way of requital for the execution of a certain number of Carlists, whose cases be specified. When - th is resolution was announced O'Donnell's firmness forsook him . He burst into tears, and with earnest and repeated supplications intreated Zurnalacarregui to merle his sentence. The latter was all but overcome. He was m oved b y the youth and name of the suppliant, and felt a soldier s reluctance to extinguish a ~title which .had been honourably won on the field of battle. While he was yet wavering between his natural feelings and the cone viction of duty, lie was informed that O'Donnell offered a large sum for his release, and it was represented that , the sum was to supply the wants of his half-naked sol-. fliers., " No," proudly replied the inflexible soldier, "my troops slid: never consent to clothe themselves with the price of blood O'Donnell was led out and shot. The present representanee of the O'Donnell family in Ireland is Sir Richard Annesley O'Donnell, iferte l of Newport Hong?, in the county of Mayo, who sue-1 etedei to the title oa the' dreeease of his brother, Sir' Hugh Moore O'Donnell. in 18 0 8 The O'Donnell Alf at now is N ew e or • in it 4 t I 'flu te , the county of eease• Two nights ago a van, belongilig to Laifite- Caillard and Co., and laden with m. , -i:eliantlise and effects of travellers, who Is icc.ton - tlfeir way fr4nt Lyons to.

The insolvent in this case was the well-knewn com mon informer whose name has already been so fre quently before the public. Mr. - WooDnuFFE on behalf of the insolvent applied to the Court that he might h 3 permitted to go out on bail until the 3d of January, the time appointed by the Chief Commissioner for his filing a new schedule. Mr. Coosa opposed the application on the part of the St. Martin's Loan Society, to which the insolvent was indebted in the sum of 801. After reading over several items in the balance-sheet, and commenting upon them, the Learned Counsel said that only one of the sureties was present, and he trusted the case would be postponed for further consideration. Mr. COMMISSIONER ksw said that this case had been previously heard at great length before Mr. Chief Commissioner Reynolds, and he did not feel himself bound to adjudicate upon , the application without fur ,,ther information upon the subject. He should, there fore, order it to stand over until such time as a.commu , nication should be made with the Chief Commissioner, when one day's notice should be given to the opposing creditor of the acceptance of bail. CENTRAL CRIMINAL COURT. OLD COURT.. Samuel Whapliam, aged - 38, who during the present sessions had pleaded not guilty to three indictments charging him with utterly , . b forged Bank of England notes, was yesterday placed at the bar, and retracted his plea of not guilty and pleaded Guilty. Sentence deferred. _ POST-OFFICE ROBBERY.— Thomas Poor, aged 25, was indicted for stealing a postletter, containing a bank note value 51., the property of the Postmaster-General. It appeared from the evidence that the prisoner was a shopman in the employ of Mr. Dawes, a grocer residing: in Maddox-street, Regent-street, whose shop was also a receiving-house for the Post-office. On the 21st of September last, Hugh Jones, a porter in the employ of Mr. Myers, of Conduit-street, posted a letter directed Mrs. Myers, Herne Bay, at the receiving house of Mr. Dawes. In that letter Mr. Myers had enclosed a five-pound note and a piece of cambric. It never reiched its destination. James King, a shopman of Yr. Dawes, had received the letter from Jones, and had placed it in a drawer, to which the witness had access. The prisoner had assisted King in sorting the letters that evening. The next morning the prisoner was sent into the City, and a person resembling the prisoner had changed the note at the Bank of England, and received four sovereigns and twenty shillings in silver., The person changing the note had written as his name and address on the back of it, " Thomas Smith, 107, Oxford-street." The handwriting was sworn to by Mr. Dawes as resembling that of the prisoner, lie was taken into custody, and on searching his lodg ing the piece of cambric, which had been Inclosed by Mr. Myers in the letter was found there, and four sove reigns were also found there which the prisoner's wife said' her_ husband had brought home on The previous Wednesday. The prisoner received an excellent cha racter. The Jury without hesitation found the prisoner Guilty, and he was sentenced to transportation for 12 years. The Attorney-General, Mr. Shepherd, and Mr. Gur ney conducted the prosecution, and Mr. Bodkin de fended the prisoner. ANOTHER POST-OFFICE I.IOBBERY.—John Odd! Rath bone, aged 38, was indicted for stealing a post-letter containing one sovereign, he being employed in the Ge neral Post-office. . It appeared that in consequence of various complaints of the miscarriage of money letters in the Golden-square district, in which the prisoner was employed, the Post office authorities, in order to test him on the 14th of October, last, enclosed a marked sovereign in a letter directed Mr. E. ['Gowan, 16, Great Windmill-street, Haymarket, and placed the letter among those the pri soner was sorting, so as that it should be given to him to deliver. Mr. M'Gowan, who had been apprised of what was about to be done, gave information that the letter had not been received by him. The prisoner was im mediately arrested and searched, and the marked sove reign was found in his pocket, and on examining a water closet, to which the prisoner had been during the course of the morning, the fragments of the letter were found underneath the sink. The prosecution in this, as in the former case, was conducted by the Attorney-General, Mr. Shepherd, and Mr. Gurney. Mr. CLARKSON, for the defence, raised the point as to whether, under the circumstances, the letter could be considered as a Post-letter, seeing it had never regularly been posted, and contended that the indictment was bad in consequence. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL contended that the fact of the sovereign being the property of the Postmaster-Ge neral, was sufficient to sustain the second count of the indictment. Mr. Baron Gusts;Ev reserved the point for argument The Jury found the prisoner Guilty. STEALING POST-OFFICE MONEY ORDERS. David Henry Gilchrist, aged thirty-one, was indicted for steal ing a post letter, yosstainingfonr orders fu3he payment of money, the property of Josephatker. It appeared that the prisoner was a carpenter, lodgin g in Charles-street, Westminster, and that he had been requested by .Joseph Baker, a corporal in the 56th regiment of foot, who could not write, to write to his (Baker's) father-in-law, requesting him to send 20/. in order to procure his (Baker's) discharge. The pri soner wrote the letter, and added at the conclusion a request to the father to direct his answer to Corporal Baker, Mr. Butt's eating-house, Charles-street, Westminster. This latter portion of the letter the pri soner did not read to Baker. The letter was received by Baker's father at Shrewsbury, and an answer, in closing four Post-office orders for five pounds each, was returned, directed as requested. Prisoner went to Butt's, and asked fur the letter, which was delivered to him. The orders were taken to the Post-office and money re • ceived. Baker on making inquiries di: covered what had occurred, and the prisoner was taken into custody near Reading. The prosecution, which was instituted by the .Post office, was conducted by the Attorney-General, Mr. Shepherd, and Mr. Gurney. Mr. CLARKSON, for the prisoner, took various objec tions to the indictment, and contended that there was no such thing known to the law as a Post-office money order, and that therefore it could not be considered a valuable security. There was nothing on the face of it importing any warrant or order whatever. It was merely a request for the payment of money ; and although the stealing of a request for the delivery of goods was lar ceny, yet the law did not recognise any such critne as stealing a request for the payment of money. Mr. SHEPHERD contended that the document was strictly and legally an order for the payment of money within the meaning of the Act of Parliament. Mr. GURNEY followed on the same side. Mr. Baron GURNEY said he would consider the points, and his Lordship also promised to consider another point raised by Mr. Clarkson, as to the sufficiency of the proof of the handwriting of the . Postmaster of Shrewsbury to the orders. His Lordship said, however, that he had very little doubt but that the orders were both warrants and orders within the meaning of th• Act, and that he .felt sure they were, legally speak ing,orders. He had no doubt the offence was a larceny. tie would, however, cOnsider all the points that had beon raised. The Jury found the prisoner Guilty. Mr. Cr—tub:so:4 moved in arrest of judgment, on the same grounds on which he had objected to the indictment. The prisoner was then removed from the bar. NEW COURT. John Shanahan& was indicted for having assaulted James Connor, a police officer, in the execution of his duty. gr. Bodkin and Mr. Chambers conducted the prose cution, and Mr. Phillips defended the prisoner. The prosecutor.tated that he was a policeman in the It division of police, on duty at Deptford. On the 28th of September last the witness was on duty at King-street, Deptford, between nine and ten o'clock. He was passing a public-house, when a girl came out and said she had been robbed of a sixpence, and the witness said if she would point out the person he would take him into custody. Whilst she was making this complaint, 'the prisoner came out, and the girl said that was the man. Witness said it would be better for him to give up the money if he had it, and he answered You be d—d, you are as bad as the rest. The parties then went into the house again, and the witness went on his beat. Soon afterwards he met the prisoner in the street, and he appeared to be sober. The witness passed by him, 'and lie said as he passed " You b—y b—r you want to take me into custody for a robbery." Wit ness told him to go home quietly, and the prisoner made a blow at witness, but he parried it off. The witness then attempted to take the prisoner by the collar, but he seized the witness by the lower part of the body, which caused him most acute pain, the prisoner saying at the dial to the efosrtaptior.n-Dhrouurse.w same time that he would do for him. Another constable came up who took hold of the prisoner, and he was going along said he did prisoner as he was o T ul h d neo st much exhausted b . if he did not, -Alr.

"Mr. Putu.n.s here asked the Jury whether they the had Mr. sergeant .Alt.inlN thought casebetter thought this witness was in a tit state to be believed? William Jones deposed that he. was steward of the Dido, and in the month .of January last that vessel was lying about 15 miles from- Rhodes. The prisoner was chief mate of the vessel, and the deceased was second mate. On the 12th of January the Captain left the ves sel, and the prisoner then took charge; and in the course of the morning a quarrel tools place between him and the deceased, but they were afterwards reconciled. The next morning, while they were at breakfast, the prisoner called the deceased a - old fool, and the latter was very angry, and told the prisoner he would not say so to him if they were upon deck, and at the same time he shook his fist in the prisoner's face. The prisoner said, " I will not do that, but I will do this," and he seized a carving knife and plunged it into the breast of the de ceased, who fell to the ground, and died almost imme diately. When the prisoner found the man was dead he attempted to stab himself, and inflicted two slight wounds upon his breast ; but he was secured and placed in irons before he could do himself any material injury. - At the close of this witness's evidence Mr. Baron G ux- YEY intimated his opinion that the charge of murder could not be supported upon it, and that the offence only amounted to manslaughter, Mr. CLARKSON said he concurred with his Lordship, and he could not hope to reduce the offence below the crime of manslaughter. The Jury accordingly found the prisoner guilty of manslaughter. Mr. Baron GURNEY then ordered the prisoner to be transported for life. The Grand Jury having concluded their labours at five o'clock, they were discharged by Mr. Baron GUR NEY, who at the smile time thanked them on behalf of the country for the services they had rendered it. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. MANSION-HOUSE. _ A young woman, who had been in the service of a: respectable family, was on Monday last brought before Alderman PIRIE, charged by William Wills, (policeman No. 503), with having attempted to throw herself into the Thames from the parapet of London-bridge. The girl had got upon the parapet on Wednesday evening at at six o'clock, and was caught hold of by the policeman at the critical moment. She appeared to him to have been determined upon self-destruction. Upon being.' questioned by_the Alderman, she said that she was in despair in consequence of having lost her situation, and that she had no doubt, that by that time all would have been over with her if the policeman had not interfered. The Alderman suspected that the girl had some unfor tunate attachment, but could not prevail upon her to make any acknowledgment of the fact. The officer, however, produced a letter, which he had found upon her person, and which was addressed to her by a private in the Guards, named William Sheldrick, from which it appeared that the Alderman's suspicions were correct. In consequence of directions given to the policeman, the soldier and his Sergeant appeared yesterday before the Lord MAYOR, and Mr. Hobler having mentioned the particulars of the former declaration, his Lordship in quired of the Sergeant the character of Sheldrick. The Sergeant said, that the man had been in the regi ment 10 years, and was a person of steady habits and good character. • The policeman stated that he had applied to the former mistress of the young woman, to ascertain why she had been discharged from her place, and the answer he re ceived was, that she had been guilty of dishonest con duct, which her mistress had herself witnessed. The young woman, lie added, had not uttered a word to the prejudice of the soldier. Sheldrick said it was he who had written the letter, and that it was the generous effusion of his heart at the time, for he was much attached to the young woman, but her subsequent conduct altered his opinion com pletely. The LORD MAYOR—No doubt. . Having succeeded in your scheme of seduction, of which the letter contains. evidence, you have thought proper to desert her. Sheldrick—The man who has been in her company last can tell more about her than I can. She acted so badly that I could not think of keeping company with her any longer. The LORD MAYOR —You have been the cause of this attempt made by the unfortunate girl to destroy herself, and you hardly deserve the name of man. Sheldrick—Oh, a soldier is sure to have no friend. It is enough for him that he is a soldier. He is sure to have every one his enemy. Mr. nobler said that the insolent tone in which the soldier exptessed himself, showed that he was a worth less fellow, if there existed no other evidence. There was not the least truth, too, in th'e remark that a soldier had no friends. That depended entirely, as in the case of any other person, upon the merits of the party. Sheldrick—l say that the man who was with her since I have kept company with her, can tell you more than I can about her. The young woman here interposed, and said that the letter contained nothing of an improper nature. The LORD MAYOR said that he felt exceedingly in dignant at the want of feeling displayed by the soldier. In his (the Lord Mayor's) opinion the man had dis graced himself in such a manner that a mark ought to be set upon him, for he had acted in-defiance of all, morality and decency. It was manifest that the unfortunate area" turf had been reduced to her present condition by the treatment she had met with from the soldier, and it was but reasonable to expect that a fellow who could be ca pable of seducing a poor girl, would not hesitate to share in the plunder she might hare been tempted to commit upon her mistress. Sheldrick said - there was nothing against his charac ter 'at all, and he did not mean to give offence to any one by what he had stated in his own vindication. Ile as sured the Lord Mayor that the young woman's conduct was quite unpardonable, and he again referred his Lord ship to the person who had sncceeded him in her favour. The LORD MAYOR ordered the soldier to leave the room, and directed - that the girl should be taken to her aunt, who was ready to afford her protection. The Sergeant informed the Lord Mayor that he should report Sheldrick's conduct in the proper quarter. • proceed. The person whatook the prisoner to the station-house ;vas then called, and corroborated the officer. This;being the case, Mr. PHILLIPS address ad the Jury for the 'defence, contending that the prisoner was not sober at the time, the best proof of which was his supposing Mr: O'Con nell could save him from a prosecution. The Jury found the prisoner guilty, and he was sen tenced to twelve months' imprisonment and hard labour. MURDER. 0,..7 TUE HIGH SEAS.—William Tathem, aged 38 , a seaman, was indicted for the wilful murder of.. E dward Hills upon the high seas, and within the jurisdic tion of the Admiralty of England. 111. ADoLPHUS and Mr. WARRINGTON conducted the prosecution, and Mr. CLARKSON appeared for• the pri soner.

DESTRUCTION OF DERBY TOWN HALL.— With reference to the late fire, particulars of which hate appeared in our paper, the Derby Merauny of this week says :—" From the evidence it appears that the fire originated in the Committee-room, No. 6, in which there had been a fire on the previous evening. The town-clerk's office was undergoing repairs, and two men were at work there with a light until half-past eight o'clock ; but the place where the fire was first perceived was exactly underneath the hearth of the fire place in the Committee-room. The fire was purely accidental, and no blame seems justly imput able to any one. The building was insured for '5,0001. in the Nottingham and Derbyshire Fire Office, who (though t he p o lic y was not renewed, as it , ought to have b een , i n consequence of the recent alter ations), have h onoura bl y agree d to pay the amount. that the loss to the We should suppose town will be some thilg like 1,00e1., as t h e l on i c pillar s which supported the portico, worth 1.000/., are hut little dama g ed, and the foundations, &c., will b e available for t he new buildin g . These sums, and the insurance, it is expe cted, will suffice. We have been told; however, that the 5,000/. insurance will cover all. . ' CITY ImPßov EmEtiTs .—The Committee conducting the City for improvements and the approaches to Loudon-bridge,__ have directed the immediate sale of several houses in Lad-lane, City, to wide n the p lace, and join Cateaton-street, which has been within the last few days again thrown o p en f rom Ki n g-street (the'main ap proach to Guildhall) to the Bank and Mansion•hOuse ; where the coach-way was only open for one carriage it is now open for four, through Cateaton-street.

It appeared from the evidence that, the prisoner had called on Thursday at Mr. Walsh's, under pretence of having a message to deliver from a gentleman in Golden square. The servant who had opened the door went up stairs to make inquiries on the subject, and during her absence the prisoner made away with the candlestick, and the cloak, which had been hanging up in the hall. A police constable deposed to hating found the pro perty in the possession of the prisoner, and the case hav ing been thus made out, he was fully committed for trial. MARLBOROUG H- STREET. On Mr. Hardwick taking his seat on the Bench, Baker, the superintendent of the C division, attended, and re ported that the apprehension of Afr. Gundry, who, it will be recollected, has been so often brought to this office, had been effi.cted on Thursday night. Two assault warrants, granted at this office, against Mr. Gundry, have been outstanding for the last three months, and the of ficers holding them could not succeed in capturing:him al though they made use of various stratagems. On Thursday evening, at seven o'clock, two police constables were des patched from the station-house, in Vine-street, to take him into custody, if possible ; and, after-watching about the premises until nearly twelve o'clock, they came to the determination of entering his apartments at all risks. Having gained admission to the house, they cautiously proceeded to a passage adjoining Mr. Gnndry's bed - room, and, by means of a window looking from the for mer into the latter, th©y were in the act of gaining admission, when they , were overheard by Mr. Gun dry, who, seizing a pair of pistols and a sword, threw up the window, and got out of it in his shirt on to the leads of an adjoining building, and from theiace by a ladder on to the top of a water-closet, on which he stood brandishing the sword, threatening to put a bullet through any one of them that dared to follow him. At the same instant he discharged one of the pistols at the constables. Ho then ascended on to the roof of the next hoUse, over two others, and when he found he could get no further he sat down 'on the parapet which overlooked a large skylight of a tailor's work- room, through which he must have fallen had he overbalanced himself, the height being about sixty feet. The constables undeterred followed him, and succeeded in securing him, and conveying him back into his bed-room, he alarming the neighbourhood whilst they were forcing him over the roofs of the houses, by screaming out " Thieves, mur der, fire," &c. On the prisoner being placed at the bar, Mr. C. Phillips appeared as his counsel, at the instance of his relatives. The parties at whose complaints the warrants against Mr. Gundry had been obtained, were in attendance, but these cases were not gone into, his examination being proceeded with on the charge of shooting at the police constables. Police Sergeants Wall and Driscoll underwent a long cross-examination by Mr. Phillips, with a view to show that there was no proof that the pistol fired off by the accused was loaded with bullet or shot. Mr. HARDWICK desired that the fellow pistol, which was also found in the possession of the accused, should be examined. Mr. Clements, the chief usher of the Court, accord ingly did so, and found it to be loaded, and on drawing the charge, it consisted of rather more than the usual quantity of powder and a leaden bullet. Mr. HARDWICK said that the premises should be strictly examined, to ascertain if there was the mark of a bullet having struck any part of them ; and to allow time for so doing; he should remand - the accused for further examination on Thursday.next. _ .._ Yesterday afternoon a very numerous meeting of the prisoners confined in the Queen's Bench Prison, was held in the common hall, for the purpose of con sidering the effects of the laws as regard confinement for debt. Several persons having addressed the meet ing deprecating the operation of the present law, so far as concerned those willing but not able to pay, and ex pressing a wi s h th a t w h en real dishonesty was mani fested, th e p art i es oug h t to b e su bjected .to criminal pro ceedings, a ser i es o f reso l u ti o ns were adopted, em bodying th e sent i ments o f t h e spea k ers , and a committee appointed to draw up a petition to Parliament on the sulticct.
