On Saturday, as the rejoicings in honour of her Majesty's birthday were proceeding, and while the streets of the metropolis were crowded with holiday folk, an odious attempt was made by which it was at first thought that the lives of her Majesty and her royal children had been placed in serious peril. The disgraceful outrage was committed between half-past six and seven o'clock in the evening, as her Majesty, accompanied by the Prince of Wales, the Princess Royal, and the Princess Helena, was return ing from a drive in Hyde Park. They had reached the lower end of Constitution-hill, on their way to the palace, when suddenly a pistol shot was fired at them by a man dressed in the garb of a labourer, who stood with his back to a tree, within the railings of the park. The fellow was instantly arrested by the by standers, and conducted at once to the station house in Gardner's-lane, King-street, Westminster. The royal carriage proceeded to the palace as if nothing had occurred, her Majesty retaining throughout the most perfect composure of manner, and addressing herself to the royal children as if to calm their fears. On their arrival they were received by his Royal Highness Prince Albert, who had been out on horse back, and was slightly in advance when the occur rence took place. His Royal Highness with great emotion congratulated her Majesty on the escape she had had. N.B. An Entrance also from Maiden lane.

THE DAY OF THE DERBY. A DITTY FOR THE DOWNS. Blame not my admiration, when I say, I love the pleasures of a Derby Day ; For pleasing is the scene which yearly crowns The verdant slopes of EpFom's far-f:med Downs. The claw ning of the day is t shercd In With animating stir and welcome din ; And atany a face with smiling gladness shows That many a treast wi.h sporting ardour glows. This season is a holiday in which The young and old partake—the poor and rich. The road-side inns throughout the exciting day, A scene of glad activity display ; While loaded 'vehicle, from neighbouring towns Convey their then ands to the busy Downs. Blame not my admiration when I say I love the pleasures of a Derby Day. Is there not mu , h to notice and admire In multitudes adorned with choice attire. On this glad day the crowded race-course showli The choicest specimens of summer clothes. Moses and Son are seen in every track, And I had nearly said on every back ; And such attractions would alone repay A trip to Epsom on the Derby Day. If, reader, you have never chanced to view What Moses' Dress Establishment can do. A visit to the Epsom Downs will show What vast improvements to this Mart we owe. Thee you mill see the new Spring Wrappers worn, With every beauty that can well adorn ; And dress-coats, sporting-costs, and frock-coats too, End vests and trousers elegant to view ; While well-shod feet as well as well-decked crowns, Contribute to the scend on Epsom Dawns, And render Moses with their choice,display, Successful winners on the Derby Day.

A K I A, CT' E. LEA. One half the world are desolately single, and the other upposing them married, questionably contented. Diffidence, or a ~ e nse on right determine the former, and miscalculated hopes em- -itter the latter. The solitary one may shield himself under the plea ri caution and worldly prudence, and the indissoluble, regret un •oaiprosing hurry ; but the truth lies deeper. Physical incapacity, ind broken health, are the great hindrances to domestic happiness ,nd social content. The dowry should not be the only marriage set ,lement. Honour and justicedernand that health shouldform an item n the compact; it alone dignifies the alliance. Blighted hopes or neglect wound more sorely than poverty or misfortune.

PROUT, 229,-STRAND. " so. 208, Piccadilly, London, October 19, 1847. " Sir, —lt is now three and a half years since I was sorely afflicted with Rheumatic Gout, the suffering from which induced tee to try all the proposed remedies that extensive medical experience could devise, without obtaining any satisfactory relief from pain. During one of the paroxysms a friend advised me to try BLAIR'S GOUT and RHEUMATIC PILLS, observing that he had in some severe cases taken them himself, and they proved very successful. I in stantly adopted his advice, and to my joy the excruciating torment soon began to abate, and a few boxes restored me to health, since which I have had no return of the complaint. " I trust you will give publicity to my case, that suffering humanity may know how to obtain a remedy for this distressing disease. " I am, Sir, your obedient hum M ble servant, " ICHAEL NASKYTH." The above testimonial is a further proof of the efficacy of Ulair's Gout and Rheumatic 1111 s, which afford speedy relief to those afflicted with gout, rheumatism, lumbago, sciatica, tic doloreux, pains in the head and face, and all analogous complaints. The never-failing effeet3 of BLAIR'S GOUT and RHEUMATIC PILLS in curing every description of Gout and Rheumatism, have secured to therm a celebrity unequalled by any medicine of past or present times. They not only give relief in a few hours, but re store to perfect health in an inconceivably short space of time. They are equally speedy and certain in lumbago, sciatica, pains in the head or face, and indeed in every rheumatic or gouty affection : in fact, such has been the rapidity, perfect ease, and complete safety of this medicine, that it has astonished all who have taken it ; and there is scarcely a city, town, or village in the kingdom but contains many grateful evidenoes ofits benign influence.

SlR,—The second spring meeting at Newmarket, has passed away without having thrown much light on the " crack race" of the year; the Rowley Mile Plate, which in days of yore produced favourites for the Derby, and in one instance the winner, was this year won in a can- T ter a, d b e a y O C r o I on el beating Peel's A V b d a - s e a l i a in h d o e r r s e ( n 2 o d t ) ,with in Dolly a stone d e o n f (3d), Glenalvon (4th), General Sale, Carbuncle, First Chance, St. Denis, Nina, Tiresome, Newport, and Fleece. This race, directly or indirectly, annihilates the chances, for the struggle of Wednesday next, of Abi-el-Fader, all Exeter's lot, General Sale, First Chance, Rochester, Landgrave, Flambeau's dam colt, Tiresome, honeycomb, Osterley, Newport, Vatican, and several others of inferior note. As I anticipated, Essedarius and Legerdemain were in the front for the Suffolk Stakes, the former being first and the latter fourth; Legerdemain would have been second had she not lost a great deal of ground by taking a very wide sweep at the turn into the Bunbury Mile. arfit throughemre alsuodtt decide d ueai essay ssi ty: oai. now osyfld,orius, ttourhhoni success nne o c rg u et7S srhohosForth's which h.agDh, years rristeeci since I made my debut in the columns of The Sun as " sporting counsel" to your r e h ma bo x t eyuc racet e t os i e wn m i d da i e te stherlgpetl i nti nTh h ole: a Bwe y v 4na e esn,:a, itreoi :erfanticipations, pnst e x periencedoeoinnns.r, tpar ticularly a a br n e. uMI Monarch, Fulled and Pantasa, the former being placed first and the latter fourth.

My third essay, in 1847, when I stood on Day's couple, Cossack and Conyngham, came off tri umphantly in favour of the former, the latter running in seventh.

And now, I trust, my fifth attempt may surpass the others, and enable me to place the leading trio for one of the heaviest betting races on record. _ _ The Epsom Carnival commences at two o'clock on Tuesday with the Craven Stakes, to close and name this day. For the Woodeote Stakes about eight will run, to be selected from the following:—Ballet Girl, Countess filly, Lampoon filly, Michael Brunton, The Swede, Countess, The Secret, Le Beau, and Casteriere, or Valentine. I presume The Swede and Michael Brunton will show the rest the way home, Lampoon filly and Countess being third and fourth. A Match for 200 sovs between Mr. E. R. Clarke's Old Commodore, Bst 71b, and Mr. Ford's Eunuch, Bst 41b, will end in favour of the former. On Wednesday, the far-famed " Derby Day," business will commence at half past two with the Derby Stakes, of 50 sovs. each, h ft, for which a field of from 18 to 23 will run , to be picked from the following.—Tadmor, Flying Dutchman, Elthiron, Nunnykirk, Chantrry, *Henry of Exeter, The Knout. Vanguard, *Uriel, *Sir Launcelot, Old Dan 'fucker, *Langton, Chatterer, Hot spur, Vatican, *Glenlyon, Due do Brabant, Thibault, I)rakelow, *Glenalvon, Landgrave, *Souvenance colt, *Lepidus, Montague, John Bull, *Sauter le Coupe. AU el-Bader, Flambeau's dam colt, Honeycomb, The Old Fox, *Woolwich, *ldle Boy, Westow, and one of Sir G. lleathcote's, Norm anton, or Brother to Campinero. The most dubious as to starting I have asterisked. Tadmor, by lon, out of Palmyra, "reared in an in stant" from the rank of an " illustrious obscure" to that of a prominent favourite for the Derby by his easy defeat of Honeycomb (2d), Belus (3d), Canada filly, 119 chester, Vanguard, and Jelly Fish, for the Ham stakes at Goodwood, is every inch a Derby horse, hav ing great power, fine easy action, and a long sweeping stride, what is more, he can mount the hill at Newmar ket at a rattling pace with ease, and t o f a r as I can judge, is a shade better than any other horse of his year, ior the peculiar course at Epsom ; if the new Derby course was flat, I should at once without any more ado, give the race to The Flying Dutchman, but the hill —the hill, the stumbling block to many a trial—alters the case materially. The unbeaten son of lon, having defated Honeycomb, upon whom they laid 3 to 1, for the Ham Stakes, he was immediately introduced into the Derby market at 20 to 1, at which price he was freely supported. At New market in the F.O.M. he walked over for the thicken ham Stakes; same meeting, won the First Triennial Stakes, without an bating the Highland Fling (second), Elthiron (third), Goodwood, Do-the-Boys, Fleece, Nina, Bon-Bon, Traitress, Mecca colt, Cacus, Hotspur, Paquita, Herbert, Letitia, Memento, Fire King, and Rhuabon ; he also won a Sweepstakes, value 200 soy., in a common canter by two lengths, beating Sobraon (second), and His Excellen c y (third). In the S. 0. M. he received 275 sous,forfeit a Pro duce Match, from Lord Glasgow's six nominations; and walked over for a Post Sweepstakes value 300 sous. This year he has only started once, for the Column Stakes, when ho won with most ridiculous ease, beating Grace, Bst Ilb (second), and Angela, 7st 131 b (third); he has since been backed at as little as 5 to 1, and from the confidence placed in him by his friends, which " Each putter on at five to one, will bring us Good warrant of." They (myself included) consider that be ought and will " Just cleAr the post, A neck, before his swift antagonist." The Flying Dutchman, by Bay Middleton out o Barbelle, is a remarkably swift horse, probably the fastest of this year, and for a mile without an equal ; his public running last year was first rate, winning all his races very easily; he came into the market at Ascot at 25 to 1, and after winning the July Stakes became first favourite, which position he has retained ever since. He won the July Stakes, by a length, beating Qui nine (second), the Jester (third), Turban, Touchy, Ca nadian, Francesca, and ()quotas. Same meeting, won a sweepstakes value 400 soya. in a canter, beating Cracow (second), and Chicot (third). At Liverpool, won a Sweepstakes value 1,2001., beat ing Escalade (second), Canada filly (third), and Snow storm (fourth). At Doncaster, won the Champagne Stakes, in a canter, beating Ellen ,Middleton (2d), Cigarette (3d), Raillery (4th), and Imperatrix (last) ; also at the same meeting, won the Two Year Old Stakes, beating Garrick (2d), Velox (3d), and Baby (last). Nunnykirk, by Touchstone out of Beeswing, is the best bred horse in the race ; he has only appeared in public twice ; in the Craven Meeting, he won a sweep stakes value 950 sous. cleverly by a length, beating Fire King, Sir Launcelot, and the Velveteen colt ; and in the First Spring Meeting, he won the 2,000 Guineas Stakes, Rowley Mile, in 1 min. 49 secs, by half a length cleverly, beating Honeycomb (2d), Vatican (3d), Indus (4th), Garrick, Fire King, Do the Boys, and Oquitos. Elthiron and Vanguard have both much improved on their last year's form, are doing good work, and will be very forward in the race. Old Dan Tucker is to have Sim. Templeman up ; he will finish in the van of the ruck. The monster importation from Ireland, yclept The Chatterer, is to have the assistance of Alfred Day ; if size can accomplish any thing he'll do it, considering he stands sixteen hands and a half, but I'm thinking he'll find the pace severe enough to settle his pretensions. The van of the ruck will, I opine, consist of Elthiron, Vanguard, Old Dan Tucker, John Bull, The Knout, and The Old Fox ; and in the rear will be found Chatterer, Vatican, Drakelow, Chantrey, Hotspur, Lanagrave, Montague, Westow, Honeycomb, and any other that may start, the before mentioned alone cxcrpted; my opinion of this rear lot is so poor, that if any from it win, I'll not perpetrate the Bunbury dinner ft at, but " I'll break my staff, Bury it certain fathoms in the earth, And deeper than did ever plummet sound, I'll drown my book." In conclusion, I see no reason why I should alter my prediction as expressed some . eight months gone; there fore, to Tadmor or The Flying Dutchman I shall look for the winner of the Derby! taking Nunnykirk for a cockboat, and placing them thus:— TADMOR ..• (Rogers or Nat) 1 THE FLYING DUTC (Marlo) 2 NUNNYKIRK ...(F.Butler) t Elthiron (Prince), Old Dan Tucker (Templeman), and Vanguard (Holmes), well up! On Tuesday I shall finish my ref:ew of the Epsom ; meeting, with the latest "moves" on the Derby, the an rand Stall(' Plate, and Wits, and t i c ipated fate of the e On the arrival of the prisoner at the station-house in Gardner's-lane, Colonel Rowan and Mr. Mayne, the Chief Commissioners of Police, were immediately sent for, and, those who saw th e s h o t fi re d b e i ng a l so in attendance, the following additional particulars were gleaned :—The name of the prisoner is John Hamilton. He is a native of Ireland, and follows the occupation of a bricklayer's labourer. He has been resident in this country for five years, but states that he was born at Adare, in the county of Lime rick, and his accent and general appearance clearly prove him to be of Hibernian origin. For some time , past he has resided principally at No. 3, Eccleston place, Pimlico, in the house of a bricklayer, for whom he at one time worked. Of late, however, it appears that the employment given to him by his landlord had ceased, and that he had been almost if not entirely out of work. There was no pretence, however, for saying that he was in want. His landlord lodged him gratui tously, and the other necessaries of life were provided by the kindnes of the labourers who were inmates of the same house. He was therefore living free of cost, and although he had been in debt some time ago for lodgings to the amount of 41. 10s., he had recently re duced it to 21. 10s. On Saturday morning his land lady, in arranging some things in the room where Hamilton was sitting, turned out a small pocket pistol, with an old flint lock, which her husband had had in his possession for more than seven years, and which was used by her children as a plaything. He asked her to lend it to him, as it wanted cleaning. Seeing no objection to this the woman consented, mad thereupon the prisoner sent out a little child of hers to buy a halfpennyworth of powder. Having got this, he went into the yard behind the house, and satisfied himself that the pistol would go off. HE then put it into his pocket, and disappearing, is next seen within the railings of the park at the lower end of Constitution-hill shortly before six o'clock. There he went up to a woman, and asked what she was waiting for ? Just as she was about to explain, he said, "Oh, for the Queen. Has she passed yet ?" She replied, "No, she has not come yet; but if you wait a little you will see her," or words to that effect. She had hardly finished the sentence when the outriders of the Royal cortege appeared in sight, and she ex claimed, " Here she comes." The prisoner answered " All right," and immediately pulled from his breast a small pistol, which he levelled and fired at the carriage in which her Majesty and the Royal children were seated. his aim is supposed to have been taken in a slanting direction, the carriage being rather past him when the discharge took place. Every effort has been made by the police to discover whether the pistol was loaded with a missile of any kind, but their search has been fruitless, and there is no mark on the carriage or elsewhere to indicate its course. Had the weapon been charged with lead or any substitute, the whistle of it past the earring( would have at once been noticed, and the report of fire-arms properly loaded is quite different from the discharge of gunpowder only. General Wemyss gavt decisive evidence on this point. One witness, who was standine , outside the railing close to the prisoner, states that his face was scorched by the discharge, and he exhibits a slight mark on his check to make good the assertion. The weapon gave a loud report, a circumstance not to be wcdered at, as it is ascer tained that he used the bowl of a tobacco-pipe as his powder-measure in charging it. There were crowds of people collected along the drive, and or, the sound of fire-arms being heard, an instantaneous rush was made to the spot whence it proceeded. One of the parkkeepers claims the merit of having arrested the prisoner, but General Wemyss, who was one of the Equerries in Waiting, and who acted with great judgment in the emergency, declares that Hamilton was first seized by a person dressed in a brown cloth coat. This person did not present himself at the station amuse in Gardner's lane. The prisoner offered no resistance, nor did be even attempt to escape, and so bunglingly did he manage, that in returning the pistol to the pocket in his flan nel jacket the handle of it stuck fast. The park keeper and constables who took him in charge had some difficulty in rescuing him from the vengeance of the excited crowd which soon formed around him. On his way to the station-house, whither he was conveyed in a cab, he is said to have stated that he was driven to the commission of the act by poverty, and that he had no accomplices. The exact evidence given at the station-house by the witnesses who were examined has been kept a secret, the representatives of the press having been excluded. The preceding statement, however, may be relied on as an accurate summary of the facts educed. , The prisoner is rather under than above the middle height, is stoutly built, and presents no appearance of emaciation. His ex pression of face and general manner indicate a sullen, sulky disposition, and it was with great reluctance that he gave his name, address, and origin. Ile wore a dirty flannel jacket, old corduroy trousers, and had on his head a greasy cap. In his pockets were found the bowl of a pipe, a small quantity of powder, and a few halfpence. There was nothing about him to indicate insanity, and he seemed to have the perfect use of his faculties, such as they were. The charge against him was entered by General Wemyss, who was in attendance. He remained on Saturday night locked up in the station-house. While these events were taking place in the neigh bourhood of the Palace the heads of her Majesty's Ministry were entertaining select parties of friends in honour of the Royal birthday. Suddenly they re ceived the startling information of what had occurred. Sir G. Grey and Lord J. Russell proceeded to inquire for her Majesty's health, and to take such steps as prudence might under the circumstances, suggest. It was accordingly determined that a court should be held yesterday at the Home-office for the purpose of having the evidence already taken brought under the consideration of the Attorney- General, and with the view of specially determining whether the prisoner ought to be proceeded against for high treason, or under the less formidable but not less stringent Act introduced by Sir Robert Peel to meet cases of which the attempts of Oxford and Bean were examples, and which there are the strongest grounds forßthink ing will apply to the present instance ttls_o.whatetfooroe however, proceeding to state the result .ht of f to take some place at the conference, it is nig notice of the enthusiasm which the knowledge of such an outrage created throughout the od o evasotpopf ire great of the metropolis. In theneighbe Q ueen" were clubs cries of " Long live the repeatedly raised, and more hethanentehe g afe r r a t n w d a m s made to to get up the National Anthem St. James s-park. a ll the theatres it was called for and receivel l‘ ' l l ° c clamation.

Grey, the Attor ney- General, Mr. Hall, the Bow - street magistrate, and the Commissioners of Police assembled at the Horne-office for the pimpese already stated. The wit nesses who had been examined on the previous day were in attendance, but only a few of them were examined. The Attorney-General conducted the examination in the presence of the prisoner, who betrayed the same sulky, sullen tem per, as on the previous day, and preserved throughout the proceedings an obstinate silence. The depositions taken on Saturday were also read, and the Court proceeded to consider which of the two courses open to the Crown should be adopted. The result was that the prisoner, being unable to enter into recognizances, was committed to Newgate for a misdemeanour, under the sth and 6th of Victoria, c. 51, for " firing at her Majesty, with intent to alarm," &c., and will be tried at the Old Bailey sessions in June. This ciccision yfoi founded . _ not appear to entertain any Majesty, that he had no not communicated to any do, and at e stol wa not loaded certainly t are the two i circum stances which fur n i s h some ground for suspecting this conclusion. The first of these is the evidence of a constable of the B division, who stated his confidant belief that the prison er was i n the habit of attending a low Chartist club i n Pi m li co. The second is an observation dropped by the prisoner himself to the in spector who was in charge of him yesterday morning. It was to the effect that he had been confined in Paris, for having taken part in the insurrection of June, and that the cells there were not nearly so clean as that in which he then was. Evidence was also adduced to show that he had worked on the Bel gium and Nantes Railway, and that he went over to Prance at the time of Prince Louis Napoleon's escape from Ham. This statement, if correct, and combined with the preceding facts, would certainly go a certain way to support the suspicion that his motives for the deed which he committed were political rather than personal. Such, however, has not been the decision of those best able to judge, and their chief concern is, therefore, directed to check in the bud, and by the most effectual means, the baneful influence of such disgusting acts, which, operating upon the thirst for notoriety, or the desire for a comfortable retirement on State pay, have an obvious tendency to repeat themselves and become contagious. As illustrative of this, it is worthy of notice that Hamilton took his stand within less than 100 yards of the spot where Ox ford committed a similar offence. He has, however, miscalculated considerably if he fancies that he is to receive a similar penalty. By the course a d o pt e d the ceremony of an examination before the magis trate in the usual mode is entirely omitted, and this unlucky Iri,hman will find that instead of being well fed, well clothed, and well housed for the rest of his life, he has subjected himself to the certain pros pect of hard labour in the House of Correction, and to public appearances that are not at all likely to foster a passion for notoriety, viz , the first at the bar of the Old Bailey, the rest at the cart tail. The following detailed report of what took place at the Home-o ffi ce yesterday we give without vouching for its perfect accuracy : At two o'clock yesterday afternoon Sir G. Grey, the Secretary of State for the Home Department, Air. Waddington, the Under-Secretary, the Attorney-Gene ral, and Mr. Hall, the chief magistrate, attended by Mr. Burnaby, the chief clerk at Bow-street Police-court, met in the deputation-room, where a Court was formed. The prisoner was brought in by Mr. May, the super intendent of the A division, and Inspector Otway, and was formally charged with having, on the 19th of May, on Constitution-hill, St. James's-park, presented and fired a pistol at her Majesty the Queen. Although the inquiry was conducted by the above named gentlemen, several members of the Government were present at various periods of the examination, amongst whom were Sir Charles Wood, the Chancellor of the Exchequer, and Mr. W. G. Grey, M.P., the Pri vate Secretary to Lord John Russell. Daniel O'Keefe was the first witness called. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL—Where do you reside? Witness—At No. 4, Eceleston-place, Belgrave-road, Pimlico. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL—Do you know the pri soner, Hamilton? Witness—l do. The ATTORNEY • GENERAL—HOW long have you known him? Witness—From four to five years. The ATTORNEY•GENERAL—What was he? Witness —lie came over here from Ireland as a bricklayer's la bourer. The ATTOREY• GENERAL —And followed the same business? Witness—Yes, when he could get any work. Mr. HALL— State all you know about him. Witness—He was in Ireland some time back, having neither father nor mother; was brought up in the charity school there, and when he left to come to London he was recommended by a friend over there to come and lodge with me. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL, —Has he lodged with you luring the whole period you mentioned, from four to five years? Witness.—No. He left once to go to Fnince? The ATTORNEY-GENERAL.—When was that? Wit ness.—Two seasons ago—two years last summer. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL— When did he come back? Witness.—ln the month of November, in the same year 4s he left. Mr. HALL.—Where did he lodge when he returned? Witness.—With me, but he was out of work, and he contracted a debt, and I in consequence sent him to a friend of mine, named Chambers, residing at Bow, in order that he might get employment, and pay me some thing off of what he owed me. Did he pay you anything? Witness.—l %rote a let ter to him and told him that I had burned my leg and was in great want of money, when he came on the Sa turday night, and brought me a sovereign. He came again after that, and brought me 108. more, but I could not get anything else from him through that season. The COURT.—What else transpired? Witness.—l summoned him and put him to all the expense I could, axe pt issuing an executicn. He came at that time rum Bow, and called upon an acquaintance in the leighbourhood for the purpose, us I ascertained, of )erig, taken, so that he might get a billet for the wint(r season in prison. The COURT—What else do you knovt? Witness— When ono: tunity came I got him about two months' cork at a wheelwright's. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL—HOW did ytu first come ;o know him? Witness—l know him from his coming rom the same pleca as I did. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL—Is that your property ? (The pistol which the prisoner fired at her Albjrsty kas here produced ; it W 34 a very okl, small brass carrel instrument with a flint lock.) Wi:ness—Yes, The ATTORNEY GENERAL—Have you anything else to say ? Witness—No ; I cannot recollect anything more. The witness was then ordered out of the court. Midget O'Keefe, wife of the last witness, was next called and sworn, when The ATTORNEY-GENERAL (showing the pistol)—Do you know that? Witnt ss —I do. The COURT—What do you know respecting it ? Wit ness—On Saturday last I was ping out into the garden ovh. n I saw Mr. Ilamilton at the bench, when he said he was makingta pistol, and was going to fire a shot ur ;.Fro. He then showed me a kind of spout which he had fastened to a piece of wood. I spoke to him about it, when he said, " Why, Dan has got an old pistol, lend me it:" The COURT—Did you do so? Witness—Yes; I went to my bedroom and gave it to him at the window. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL—What did he then say? Witness—lle looked at it, and said " It is very rusty." The COURT—Did you make any remark? Witness— I said, " Yes it is. It is of no account." The ATTORNEY-GENERAL—Did you see him do any .hing with the pistol after that? Witness—l did not, but I afterwards 11,ard him tire the pistol:about three zitnes in the garden. The ATTORNEY- GENERAL —Do you know whether he was in or out of work? Witness—l have not known nim to have more than seven weeks' work since Christ mas last. The COURT—Then how did he live? Witness—A young woman who lives with me, who is in the milk line, serves a great many persons and collects a deal of broken victuals, and between the two of us we managed to keep him. The COURT—What else do you know? Witness — Nothing more. Edward O'Keefe was next called and examined. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL—You are the son of the last witness, I believe; how old are you? Witness — Eleven years next birthday. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL—TeII us what the prisoner Hamilton asked you to do for him. Witness—On Saturday last he asked me to fetch him a ha'p'orth of powder. The COURT—Did you do so? Witness—Yes; I went to a shop in Elizabeth-street and bought a ha'p'orth of gunpowder of a woman, which she said was not the best sort of powder. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL—What time was that ? Witness—About a quarter to three. The COURT—Did he say anything particular to you after that? Witness—He asked me if I had ever had squibs or crackers, when I said yes, and added that they could be got at the next shop. The COURT—Did he say anything else ? Witness — He sail he wanted a ha'p'orth, as he wanted to have a bit of fun, and could make them fire through the trees in the air. The witness produced a piece of wood, roughly cut in, the form of a pistol stock, on which was tied to all ap pearance He h theepsupronuhtasoed it of .Hamilton fsomeoldironoron tinkettle. said that Saturday last ofoffreroinnegpheinmnya, paanndnyt,uaranidin,g., r H ou er n e d , m to r. th H e prisoner amilton, and can the penny now, for I did not have o ne on pay you Saturday." The COURT—When did he go out? Witness—Shortly afterwards, and I wanted to go with him, but he said "No, you must stop at home." The prisoner was asked, as he had been at the con clusion of the examination of the previous witnesses, whether he had any questions to ask, and replied, " No, nothing." Mr. Renwick deposed that he was in the service of her Majesty, and about twenty minutes past six o'clock, as the royal carriage, which was an open landau, was returning to Buckingham Palace, and when it had reached butter than midway down Constitution-hill, he lir , 4rd the reps: rt of a pistol, and at the same instant Fur Maj , •sty stood up and said, "Renwick, what is that?" NA' iqic,is riplie!l, "Your Majesty has been shot at." Iler 111.1jety made no la ply, bat resumed her seat. Her 111 ,, j,.5ty did not appear to be in any way alarmed. Mr. Fitzgerald, the second attendant on her Majesty, gave similar evidence. George Moulder, park-keeper, No. 1, deposed that ho was on duty in the Gn_en Park, and was standing within twelvv i arils of the prisoner. Just as the royal carriage had passed the spot wi*.'re he was standing, he saw the prisoner move his right hard from his breast, and the action was immediately followed by a loud report. Witness observed a considerable body of smok , ... He instlntly ran up to the prisoner - and seized hold of him by the right arm and collar, at the same time he celled to a person who was standing on the ' other side of the prisoner to seize him, as ho (witness) thought the prisoner had other firearms iu his possession. The person to whom he *applied seem.:d to be alarmed, and did not assist. The prisoner during this time made no attempt to get away. He said something, but what were the words be could not say. Witness was then assisted by private Stride of the Life Guards, and
