LAZLAINTDs DUBLIN, FRIDAY EITM\TING. THE BEO.ADSTO.).4 - E TRAGEDY. This afternoon a man named Harrington, the father of a man employed by the Midland Railway Company, but otherwise unconnected with the line, was arrested on the information of a tailor named Feney and his wife, and a former servant woman of the accused, named Fitzsimmons. He is to be brought up for examination at Capel-street Police office at 11 o'clock in the morning. It may now he mentioned that little or no credit is attached to the story told by the informants of the police. FRIDAY MQRNING. TIM RUN ON THE NATIONAL BANK. The Freeman's Journal, alluding to the run on the branches of the National Bank in Tipperary and Cashel states that the demand for gold was general and extended to other quarters ; it is, how ever, authoritatively added that the managers of the several branches have been already supplied with bullion more than sufficient to meet any demand that can possibly be made. The same foolish demand for gold was made at the Limerick branch of the Bank of Ireland yesterday, but, of course, as at the National Bank branches, gold was abundant, and no inconvenience resulted. POLITICAL AMNESTY. It is stated that a patent has been passed, grant ing her Majesty's mo s t grac i ous p ar d on , an d exone rating and discharging from all pains, penalties, and forfeitures the following persons :—William Smith O'Brien, John Martin, Kevin Izod O'Doherty, William Doyle, Edward Sheehy, John Donohoe, Luke Lennon, Matthew Joy, John Lennon, John Walsh, Edmund Tobin, Thomas Donavan, Richard Bryan, James Crolly, Thomas Wall, James Lyons, James Ryan, and Thomas Ryan. With the excep tion of Messrs. O'Brien, Martin, and. O'Doherty, the foregoing names are quite unknown to fame, indeed at must have belonged to very small deer at the time of the insurrectionary movement of 1848. Mr. John Martin and Mr. O'Doherty wore neveri taken in arms, the offence for which they were sentenced to transportation consisting in the writing and publishing highly seditious articles in a newspaper . set up after the for c ibl e suppress i on of John Mitchell's war organ, The United Irishman, of treasonable memory. REVERSE OF FORTUNE. Among not the least melancholy instances of the reverses which have overtaken members of all grades of society in Ireland during a few brief years, one has just come to light which has caused consider able regret here. Every one connected with the Dublin press at the time of the .repeal agitation must remember the attention and undeviating courtesy of Mr. Francis Dwyer, the assistant secretary of the Association, and for some years private secretary to the late Mr. O'Connell. After fruitless endeavours to obtain employment of any ,kind, Mr. Dwyer, less fortunate than many of the patriots who figured prominently upon the stage of the Corn-Exchange, is now, it seems, an applicant for admission within the cheerless walls of a Dublin workhouse. This is not creditable to the chiefs of the party—or clique, rather—who, in the hurry to provide for themselves, have altogether ignored the almost hereditary pretensions of a hard-worked servant. Dwyer's father filled the post of Secre tary to the Catholic Association up to the passing of the Relief Act of 1829, and bad been previously one of the leading merchants in the city of Cork. Naval and Military inteiligenf;e. The following circular has been forwarded from the Horse Guards to all commanding officers of regiments and depots ; " The savings'-bank business of depot battalions will, as heretofore, be transacted under the superintendence of a committee composed as follows, viz.: —The officer com manding, the officer second in command, the adjutant, and, when possible, of the senior officer of each regimental depot, with the view of training them to the duties of su perior rank and to make themselves conversant with the details of the savings'-bank business by assisting the com mittee in preparing the accounts. Thus the existing re gulations for regimental savings'-banks will apply equally to depot battalions in every respect.—By command. " G. A. WETHERALL, Adjutant-General." Yesterday afternoon the Board of Commissioners from Chelsea Hospital concluded the inspection of upwards of 200 sick and wounded troops at Chatham, the whole of whom will be discharged from the service as soon as the amount of each man's pension has been fixed. The number of invalids stationed at St. Mary's invalid esta blishment exceeds 1,000. Within the last few days a large number of recruits have arrived at Chatham Garrison, chiefly from the north ern districts, for the purpose of joining the depots of the Bth, 27th Enniskillens, 35th, 434 Light Infantry, 52d Light Infantry, 53d, 60th Rides, 76th Highlanders, 84th, 87th Royal Irish Fusiliers, and other Indian Re giments. Major-General Sir W. F. Williams has been engaged daily during the past week in the inspection of the Royal Artillery Schools at Woolwich. The first of 3 series of concerts, intended to come off during 'the winter under the general's immediate patronage, took place last even ing•for the amusetnent of the non-commissioned officers and their families, when fully 1,000 attended, as well_as a goodly number of officers and their friends. The prizes consisted of mathematical instruments and handsomely bound professional books to the more deserving non commissioned officers, gunners, and trumpeters. General Williams has been most minute in his examination of these schools, and has expressed his perfect approbation of the efficient manner in which they are conducted, and which reflects the utmost credit on all the officials. Capt. Freeth has been unceasing in his efforts for the success of these establishments, and is ably assisted by the super intendent, Mr. Wharrv, and the 4isiuterested zeal of the chaplains, the Revs. Mr. Scott and Mr. Wright, in the discharge of this portion of their duty. The object of this series of concerts is to demonstrate the successful result of the musical instructions given to the non-com missioned officers, men, and boys at the schools during the past year, under the direction of Mr. Smyth, the bandmaster of the corps. The-screw steam guardship Ajax, GO, Captain R. S. Robinson, was hauled out of Keyhara-.yard on Thurs• day and placed alongside the Dellona hulk to r•;ceive her crew.

THE SUN, LONDON, SATURDAY EVENING, DECEMBEft 20, 1856 ASSIZE INTELLIGENCE. HOME CIRCUIT—MAIDSTONE, DEO. 19. (Before Mr. Baron Bram wel:.) The business of this county was brought to a con elusion late last night. TILE MURDER BY A FOREIGN SOLDIER. Dedea Rsdaniez, 26, a private soldier in the British Swiss Legion, stationed at Shorncliffe, was indicted for the wilful murder of Maria Back. The prisoner, it will be remembered, bad also pleaded g,uilty to another indictment, charging him with the wilful murder of Caroline Back, sister to Maria. Mr. G. Denman and Mr. Papillon conducted the pro secution. The prisoner had no counsel, but, at the suggestion of the Court, Mr. Barrow kindly undertook to defend him. The prisoner is a mild, inoffensive, and good-looking young man. He was seated during the trial, and did not betray the slightest emotion at any part of the pro ceedings. Mr. Denman, in stating the case for the prosecution, said that the prisoner bad been a private in the Swiss Legion, in the service of her Majesty, and he was in that position at the time he committed the serious crimes with which he was accused. Although on the present occasion he was only charged with the commission of one murder, it would be idle, after what had passed in court, to attempt to conceal from the jury that at the same time the deceased young woman, Maria Back, met her death, an elder sister, named Caroline, was also de stroyed by the prisoner at the bar, and if he were a re sponsible agent, of which he feared the jury could not, in the result, entertain any doubt, he was in pointof fact guilty of two murders. He then proceeded to state that the deceased girls, who were of the respective ages of 19 and 17, lived with their parents, who were in an humble position, at Dover, and the prisoner was in the habit of taking the clothes of the officers of the regiment to their house to be washed, and by this means an intimacy sprung up between them, and there could be no doubt that the prisoner was fondly attached to the elder sister, Caroline, and it was to be feared that the dreadful deed that he afterwards committed was the result of jealousy. It appeared that on the evening of the 2d of August last the prisoner was at the house of the parents of the deceased, and he proposed that Caroline slsould accom pany him on the following morning to Shorncliffe to see his sister, and it was arranged that both the girls should accompany him, and they started about half-past 3 on the following morning to walk there, the distance being about nine miles. They were all three seen walkin g together at a distance of about five miles from Dover at 5 o'clock, and nothinganore was seen of the unfortunate young women until about nine o'clock, when their bodies were found lying at a place called Steedy Hole, a sort of hollow a short distance from the Folkestone turn pike road. They were both dead, and there were name rsus mortal wounds upon both their bodies, and the capes they had en when they left Dover were taken from their persons. The prisoner was apprehended on the following day near Canterbury, a distance of 20 miles from the spot, having both the capes of the unfortunate deceased upon his person ; and when the constable attempted to arrest him, he stabbed himself with a dag ger, the same iostrament with which, no doubt, the girls had been destroyed, and inflicted very severe injury upon his chest, from which it was a considerable time befi re he recovered. This, he said, was a short outline of the facts of the melancholy case he should have to lay before them, and he apprehended that there would not be the slightest doubt that the unhappy deceased girl, whose death was now the subject of inquiry, had met her death at the hands of the prisoner, and, indeed, he never seemed to have denied the fact, for almost immediately after the bloody deed had been perpetrated he wrote a letter to Mrs. Back, the mother of the deceased, admit ting his crime, and, as it appeared to him, also admitting that jealousy was the cause of it. The prisoner, he was happy to say, had the able assistance of hi s learned friend Mr. Barrow to conduct hie defence; and all that talent or ingenuity could do would be exercised on his behalf, but the only defence that could be set up for the prisoner was that he was not a responsible agent. It appeared to him, however, that under the circumstances of this case, it would be a most dangerous precedent to allow a man who had committed such an awful crime to escape upon such a ground, and that the jury ought well to "consider all the facts before they came to such a conclusion. Evidence in support of the above baying been given, Mr. Barrow addressed the jury for the prisoner. Mr. Baron Bramwell then summed up, and The jury, after a short deliberation, returned a verdict of guilty. The learned judge then passed sentence of death in the usual form. The prisoner heard the sentence with the same calm demeanour that had characterised him throughout, and when his lordship had concluded he walked with a firm step from the dock. OXFORD CIRCUIT.—OXFORD, Dec. 19. (Before Mr. Baron Watson.) Edward Claridge, aged 27, labourer wag found guilty of attempting to commit an unnatural offence, and was sentenced to two years' imprisonment with hard labour. CHILD MURDER AT BANBURY. Sarah Draper, domestic servant, was charged with the wilfut murder of her male child at Banbury on the 11th of August last. - - The case was of such a nature as to preclude our pub li,hing the details, but the simple facts were these: — The prisoner was in the service of Mr. TIMM?, solicitor, at Banbury, and on the 11th of August last was de livered of a male child in the privy, where the body was afterwards found. The prisonQr's fellow-servant spoke to the fact of hearing the cries of a new-barn infant, and having a suspicion that there was something wrong, apprisedjaer mistress of it, and Mr. Griffin, a surgeon, was sent for, and saw the prisoner in her bedroom, when she denied having given birth t o a c hild, b u t a f terwar d s admitted that s h e had, and tb at the child bad fallen into the privy. The body was af terwards found, and a post mortein examination was in ade by Mr. Griffin and Mr. Grimbly, but although thriy were inclined to think that it was born alive, they could not speak with any degree of cr.rtainty on that point.. On the conclusion of the evidence for the prosecution, his lordship stopped the case, and expressed his belief that there was no evidence to justify the chartte either of wilful murder or of concealing the birth. The jury, by Lis lordship's direction, acquitted the prisoner. The judge fined Mr. T. Paine, the solicitor for the prosecution, in the mitigated penalty of 405., for prose- outing in this case; he being the coroner upon whose in quisition the prisoner was put on her trial. His lordship had power to impede a penalty of 50/., but he mitigated it to 40e., from the conviction that Mr. Paine had erred from ignorance of the law in this case. Tlckham Mon.

Solomous, opticians, 39, Albe marle-street, Piccadilly. Observe—opposite the York Hotel. By tier Majesty's Royal Letters Patent for valuable and extraordinary improvements in the most powerful and brilliant Telescopes, Camp, Racecourse, Opera, and Per spective Glasses, to know the distances. These telescopes possess such extraordinary powers that some throe and a-half inches, with an extra eye-piece, dill show distinctly Jupiter's moons, Saturn's ring, and the double stars. With the same telescope can be seen a person's countenance three miles and a half distant, and an object from 16 to 20 miles. They are of larger and all sizes, with increasing powers accordingly,—Tae Royal Exhibition, 1851. Valuable, no wly-invent ed, very small , powerful waistcoat-pocket glass, the size of a walnut, by which a person can be seen and known 12 miles distant ; they answer every purpose on the race-course, and at the opera houses, country scenery, and ships are clearly seen at S to 10 miles. They aro invaluable for shooting, deer-stalking, yachting, to sportsmen, gentlemen, gamekeepers, and tourists. Opera, race-course, camp, and perspective glasses, with wonderful power. Newly-constrn:ted Spectacle Lenses of the great est transparent power. The valuable advantage derived from this invention is, that vision becoming impaired is preserved and strengthened, and very aged persons aro enabled to employ their sight at the most minute occr- Pation—can see with these lenses of a much less magnify. ing p o wer --and they do not require the frequent changes to the dangerous effects of further powerful assistance. Persons can be suited at the most remote part of the world, by sending one of the glasses out of their spectacles in a letter, and stating the distance from the eyes they can read small newspaper print with it; and those who have not made use of spectacles by stating their age. Deaf ness. New Discovery. The Organic Vibrator, an ex traordinary powerful, small, newly-invented instrument for dea f n ess, entirely different from all others, to surpass any thing of the kiad that has been, or probably ever can be, produced. Being of the same colour as the skin, is not per ceptible ; it enables deaf persons to hear distinctly at church and at public assemblies ; the unpleasant sensation of singing noises in the ears is entirely removed ; and it affords all the assistance that possibly could be desired.-39, Albemarle streot, Piccadilly.

Yesterday afternoon, shortly after the officials of the Great Northern Railway, who have been attending the Clerkenwell police-court on the charge against Redpath and Kent, bad left the court, they returned, having in custody Thomas Hogden, a clerk in the registration de partment of the Fame railway. He was at once placed at the bar before Mr. Tyrwhitt, on the charge of being concerned with Redpath in the commission of the forgery of which, the latter stands charged. It appears that Mr. Mowiitt, the secretary of the company, having his suspicions aroused, looked into the transfers, and found that the prisoner had been the at testing witness to a forged document porporting to trans fer 1,0001. 4i per cent, stock of the Great Northern Railway from Redpath to Mr. Stephen George Ham mond. From the nature of the document, there could not, in Mr. Mowatt's idea, be the least doubt that the prisoner knew that the document was a forgery. The prisoner, in defence, said he did not know that the document was a forgery, and ho was only the at test ing witness. The prisoner was remanded. Sporting Intelligence. MANCHESTER STEEPLECHASES.

STEALING FOWLS AT WHEATLEY. William Davis, aged 33, labourer, was convicted of stealing six fowls, the property of Mr. William Sheldon, at Wheatley, on the sth of Deeemt sr, and wai sentewed to 18 months' imprisonment, with hard labour, he having been previously convicted of felony. CHARGE OF SHOOTING. Thomas Baylis, aged 20, labourer, was charged with shooting James Hall, with intent to murder him, at Handborougb, on the 10th December. Mr. Cripps was for the prosecution, and Mr. Williams for the defence. From the evidence it appeared tbat the prosecutor, who is nearly 80 years of age, had been to Oxford on the 10th December, and on his return home called at the Bell Inn, at Hand borough, about four o'clock m the afternoon, where he saw the prisoner in company of a man named George Lay ; the prisoner asked the prose cutor to drink with him, brit he declined, and said he should have a pint to himself ; the prisoner said he bad been to Woodstock that day, and had beaten the Duke of Marlborough and his gamekeeper. Lay said to the prosecutor, " Yon ought to have your brains blown out ;" and tie prisoner also said, " That he (Hall) ought to have his head blown off, because he had told the keeper that he (the prisoner) had been shooting on the common." After this conversation Hall wept home, which took him about an hour to reach ; on reaching home, and while having tea with his housekeeper, they heard a report of a gun—the window of the room in which they were was smashed, and glass and shots were scattered over the room. Superintendent Ed• wards was sent for, and traced some footsteps to the spot where it was supposed the gun was fired, and afterwards apprehended the prisoner at a public-houso, and took his shoes, which corresponded with the f ° o t-marks ; in his house was also found a gun, which was loaded. The prisoner was seen by a witness naval "5 11 .

He has received an elegant oak-treo cande labrum for six lights, modelled expressly by Hamilton M earthy, Esq , and designed and manufactured byJohn Gillian. It btars the following inscription :—" Pre sented to George Lort Phillips, Esq., to mark the general estimation of the liberal manner in which he hunted the Pembrokeshire Hunt country for many years." AQUATICS. RANELAGH YACHT CLUB. The rapid prosperity of this club, established only two years ago for the encouragement of yacht sailing above bridge, has suggested the necessity of some very material alterations in the laws, and notice kas been given by its promoters to the following effect :—That the maximum tonnage of yachts eligible to compete in matches shall be 10 tons, with an allowance of time for tonnage, instead of seven tons as heretofore ; to extend all the privileges of the club to honorary members ; to make the meetings of the club monthly, and to give the commodore power to call special meetings ; to have the annual election of officers and sailing committee in March, to take office in April, and all alterations in the crews to take effect from the close of the meeting in March ; to have a flat club button, sim►lar to that formerly worn in the navy, with a foul anchor, and the initials of the club upon it ; to provide that sheeting to - windward only be allowed ; and to allow two working hands in yachts over five tons. The members highly approve of the above suggestions, which will doubtless be adopted at the next meeting. ROWING MATCH. Henry White and Thomas Pocock, two young %dater. men, who were matched for 201. a side, to contend in a scullery' match from Blackwall to the Thames Tunnel, have at length, after postponements owing to the fog, brougkt the matter to an issue, but with nothing like the result anticipated. White gave his adversary E.ix lengths, which appears to have been a very unnecessary favour, for Pocock had all the best of it throughout, and won by several more. RAILWAY TRAFFIC RETURNS.
