FRENCH PAPERS. [From the Moniteur of Monday.] (OFFICIAL PART-) P AR IS, JAN. 9.—To-day, before mass, Lient.- General Puzzo di Borg° presented to the King, in a private audience, his new credentials, con firming him in the post of Ambassador Extraor dinary and Minister Plenipotentiary from his Ma jesty the Emperor of all the Russias. The Duke of San Carlos presented his new cre dentials, confirming him in the post of Minister Plenipotentiary from the Infant, Duke of Lucca. ROYAL ORDINANCES. Ist. For raising 60,000 men from the class of 1824, with a table stating the contingent to be furnished by each department. 2nd. Grants to the officers of the corps of Sappeurs Pompiers of the city of Paris certain advantages, to indemnify them for the slowness of promotion which results from the particular regu lations of that corps. NON-OFFICIAL PART. His Majesty has just granted a pension of 2.000 francs to the descendants of the great Corneille. ( From the Etoile, dated Tuesday, Jan. 11.) PARIS, JAN. 10.—Letters from Berlin say, that Count Bernstorff, in his late illness, again solicited permission to resign, which was refused in the most honourable terms. A new organiza tion of the public departments is spoken of for the purpose of lessening the burden of the busi ness which lies on the Minister. The cholera morbus has appeared at Vardal, in the Government of Christiania. Four children have died on one farm, all the inhabitants of which have been ill. Our readers may recollect that this terrible malady appeared at Leith, in England, last summer. On the 3d November the Porte sent orders to Jassy to recal those iroops which exceeded the number thatis to remain in Moldavia. We know, beytmd all doubt, that these orders have been eNecuted. M. Minziacky deferred for some days the presentation of his credentials. lie thought he ought to wait till the Reis Effendi had an nounced the evacuation. This notification hav ing been made by the Porte on the gth, M. Minziacky immediately applied to the Reis Effendi to know the day and hour he would re ceive him. The nth was the day fixed. ( - From the Constitutionnel.) LISBON', DEC. 22.—(Extract from a Private Letter.)—ln my last I mentioned the conferences which are taking place between our Ministers and the Ambassador of a great Power ; but I waited till now to ascertain if it were quite certain that the British Ambassador had required an explanation of our Ministry as to the conduct they would pursue, if England were obliged to break with the three great Powers of Europe, or the Holy Alliance. I am now assured, that such a commu nication has been made. The reply of our Ministry will be agreeable to the views of the British Government. Indeed , ' when Sir William A'Court arrived here from Madrid, we ex pected some event of this nature. We shall now see whit will be said in the North. The Hardware, of Liverpool; the Venus, of London ; and the Agnes, of Glasgow, have lately entered the port with money on board; and the Standard has brought provisions for the English men of war in the Tagus. (Front the Journal des Debuts. ) FROM THE HEAD-QUARTERS AT HIERO CAMION, - - BEFORE PATAAS. Extract of a Private Letter, dated Dec. 1, 18.94.—The for. _tress of Patras is to be at length regularly besieged. Eight vessels sent from the squadron of Admiral Miaoulis intercept all communication, with the consent'of the English, who have acknowledged the legality of the blockade promulgated by the Hellenian Government. Cannon and mortars have been aaxsded at St. Andre, and are to be sent on to Scatavonni, where a battery is preparing. The works are under the di rection of European engineers, and the artillery is worked by foreigners. Ten thousand Greek soldiers, under the command of .Andri Zainis and Constantine Botzaris, defend the besiegers. On Nov. 27, Botzaris being informed that Joussouf Pacha had dispatched two thousand men from Lepanto under Achmet . Pacha, went towards Sichena to meet them. He came up with them at Xero Campos, defeated them, killed Achmet, and deprived the Turks of any wish to trouble the besiegers, so that the capture of Patras is regarded as just at hand. The Greeks mean, afterwards, to attack the Castle of the hlorea opposite Lepanto, and , also that town, in order to be ready, in 1825, to make head against the troops of the Sul. tan, if he should still mean to try another campaign.— P.S. DEC. 2.—lntercepted letters inform us that Modon and Coron are in want of provisions, and being blockaded by sea, it cannot be long before they surrender. Troops are continually passing towards Athens, in order to lay siege to Negropont.

IMPUDENT ROBBERY.—A young man, who gave his name Davison, dressed in a fashionable style, and who is well known to part of the theatrical world, was brought up to Bow-street, this day, charged with a most impudent rahhery in the house of Mr. Bolton, of Yate's-court, Carey-street, Lincoln'- Inn-fit-1(13.—M r. Bolton stated, that the prisoner called at his house and took a suite of apartments on the Saturday, with all the consequence of a gentleman, and he had not been long in the house when a quantity of silver plate was missing . , and on the Tuesday he broke open the doors of some of the apartments and stripped them of every thing valuable. The property was afterwards found to be pledged at Mr. Cameron's, a pawnbroker, and it had been pledged by a young man alveady committed to Newgate, for trial, with whom the prisoner was acquainted. Several Theatrical Gentlemen were , present during the examination. The prisoner . .was fully committed for trial. ^Dr.,GOODENOUGR7 of Westminster Abbey and School, .and who lives in Dean's-yard, went into , his residence on Monday, and previously to go - ing up stairs took off his great coat and left it in the hall. 'On coming down again soon aftei wards and looking for the coat, it was ascertain. ed to have been very unceremoniously translated; and Chi,, as may be supposed, occasioned no little surprise. I-limit went remains a mystery. Com plaint was o ge 1 d d at Queen's -square, Police Office, and yesterday Gilmore was actively en gaged in examining the divers pawnbroker's shops for the Doctor's lost coat. • FOR THE SUN. DELICI/E CATHOLICE, or Beauties of Wit, Intelli gence, and Eloquence, selected from the various Speeches, chiefly of Mr. O'CoNNELL, delivered at the Meetings of the Catholic Association in Dublin and throughout the Kingdom. A Catholic Bishop described, in which is modestly introduced the Orator's account of his tact at discrimination of character. " Of all the intellects he ever encountered, (and the nature of his profession, while it gave him some insight into the cha racter of the human mind, also enabled him to judge pretty correctly of the powers of individuals), that of Dr. Doyle was the most mighty and stupendous he had ever witnessed, while his manly, gentle, bland, and amiable manners formed a fine contrast to the towering s rength of his intellect, and illustrated the idea of the thunderbolts of Jove in the hands of a child, by their soft and soothing influence."—Extract from Mr. O'Connell's Speech at the Catholic Association Meeting in Dublin, Nov. 19.—(From the Dublin Evening Post, N0v.12.) Affection for one's Countrymen expressed in a manner distin guished for its simplicity. " Whilst I love my Catholic countrymen, (0 ! how I do love them), I feel," &c.—Lord Cloncur:ry's Letter to the Asso tion.—( Ibid. ) Bold and novel figure of speech, in which Ireland is compared to a lighted candle, and Castlereagh is represented in the act of clapping an extinguisher upon it. " Me said that that Statesman had extinguished his country." —(O'Connell's Speech, ibid.) The ability of keeping an Audience in a roar of laughter for an hour or two, no difficult thing for an Orator who has a knowledge of the human character, as may be seen by the indifferent manner in which he mentions the qualification. " When they had done (alluding to the Orators at the Cork Bible Meeting), he said, Ladies and Gentlemen, I am on the other side if you please ; and after making them laugh for an hour at the Englishman, he said, now, if you please, we will laugh a little at the Scotchman."—(ld. et ibid.) Lively and gallant description of an unmarried Lady. " He saw several ladies enter (to the Meeting at Cork), whose beauty was on the wane--prim and starched."—(ld. et ibid.) The Scotch Captain introduced with a very amiable intent— that of making the English more attached to the Scotch than they are. •` Here (at Cork) he listened for some time to the Scotch Captain, praising Scotland and abusing England," &c.—(ld. it ibid.). Most novel description of a concourse of People, composed chiefly of what are called on the other side of the water " Blackthorn-Stickmen." Alluding to the Kilkenny dinner, Mr. O'Connell says— " The thousands in Kilkenny, exulting in an honest enthu siasm, were mild as the meekest—while at the same time they were important in their strength. In the assertion of their poli tical principles, they were as quiet and as kind as the society of the gentlest of the gentle sea."—( Id. et ibid.) Mr. or Captain Bryan introduced with a hint, that although not possessing the discrimination necessary for a Counsellor, yet eulogized in a manner that strikingly demonstrates the sincerity of the Orator. " George Bryan was the purest Irishman he. ever knew.= (Cheers.)—His understanding, to be sure, might be mistaken, for he was human, but his heart was full of honour and of kindnss ; and he was free from all touch of aught that was sordid, selfish, or mean."—(Cheers.)—( ld. et ibid. ) Another very ingenious figure of Rhetoric, by which Mr. Rose Lambert Price is compared to a bottle of old wine. Talking of Mr. P., the Orator observes, that " there was something luscious about the flavour of English patriotism, which he relished and envied. It smacked of good old wine." —(Laughter.)—(/d. et ibid.) A complimentary notice of Mr. Price, distinguished for its boldness and sincerity—as a compliment so ardently ex pressed and introduced, so much in the style of the follow ing, must indicate. " After havirg read the letter of as good an Irishman as Ireland affbrds, he would now read the letter of the best of Englishmen, without any exception."—(Cheers.)—(ld. et ibid.) An Apostrophe, in which the Orator calls on those gentle crea tures he has described to go to Westminster Abbey, and there fulfil a very magnanimous and. Christianlike purpose. " Oh ! they ought to stamp on his (Castlereagh's) grave, who had buried his country in oblivion."—(Dublin Week.'y Register, Nov. 13, 1824.) An Observation made by the Orator at the Cork. Bible Meet ing, which must render him very estimable in the eyes of that sex which he eulogizes. " He (Mr. O'Connell) said, it was a notorious fact that.most of the English females were mothers before they were mar ried "—" The marriage baked-meats did scarcely furnish forth the christening tables." *—(Report of the Bible Meeting at Cork.) (To be continued.) This remarkable observation of the Orator has of late been echoed from one end of the kingdom to the other. Mr. Clowry's version of it, which he embodied in his speech at the Carlow Meeting, is particularly striking. It should be re marked, before we give it, that tliis Mr. Clowry is a young Catholic Priest, residing at Tullow, in this county, Carlow ; " Let me, Mr. Clowry, ask what is the state of morality in the sister kingdom ? There is scarcely any female in England married till after she has become the victim of seduction !" ( Report of the Bibk proceedings at Carlow.) LONDON TlTHES.—Yesterday a Meeting of the Inhabitants of the parish of St. Giles without, Cripplegate, was held at the Church, for the purpose of considering the propriety of co-operating with the Special Tithe Committee of the Corpo ration of the City of London, in an application to Parliament to regulate the local tithes within their jurisdiction, and prevent a continuance of the exhorbitant claims of some clergymen under the statute of the 37th of Henry VIII. The Meeting was but thinly attended, and ate, 4;orna conversation hetwun the churchwardens, Mr. Newell, Mr. Yellowley, Mr. Haines, and some other parishioners, a resolution of co-operation with the city of London in the application to Parliament was' agreed upon. In the course of the conversation , the great difficulty seemed to be, to create a fund for meeting the neces sary expence of the Parliamentary proceeding : a voluntary subscription had been already in part attempted. The present vicar had not demanded more than ls. in the pound, but the parishioners thought the opportunity now affbrded by the Cor poration of London favourable to the proper determination of this tithe question, to prevent ultimate contention. BAD COUNTRY NOTES.—There are at this tune ' persons going about the town, passing notes of country Bankers, long since as Bankers defunct. There is also another species of trick practised by these gentry—that is, going to Coach offices with a number of good country notes, not payable in London, and requesting the guards and coachmen, and the book-keepers of the offices, to exchange them for cash or Bank notes, offering a premium for this accommodation, the drawers of which have suspended payment. They are, in fact, merely waste paper. Several attempts of this kind have come within our knowledge, and some of the parties are well known. Last week, as a poor man in the employ of Mr.. Gurney Croasdill, residing at Tyler-hill, was in the act of loading a timber tug, and the wind blowing strong at the time, he was precipitated to the ground; and, trifling as the distance may appear, his collar-bone was dislocated, one eye forced from the socket, and lie was otherwise.materially. in jured. The Unfortunate man was immediately conveyed to his own residence, *here medical aid was speedily afforded ; but we are sorry to add that faint hopes are entertained of his re covery.—(Kent Mercury.) CATHOLIC ASSOCIATION. At the Meeting of the Mociation in Dublin, on Saturday last, after some Resolutions condemnatory of the prosecution against Mr. O'Connell had been passed, that Gen tleman presented himself to the Meeting. Mr. O'CosrstELL spoke nearly to the following effect :—lt is impossible for me to be silent on the present occasion : the sensations which I at this moment feel are of Alt description ; they oblige me to declare that I have no faculty to give utter ance to them.—(Hear, hear !)—The late prosecution has sug gested two reflections to my mind ; the first one of a painful and bitter nature : it is, that this prosecution evinces an active and vigilant disposition to look out for opportunities to pro ceed against the Association. It is certainly unpleasant that there is not some generous sympathy evinced towards us.— But, however I may regret the prosecution for these consi derations, yet there is another reflection that induces me to be very glad of it. lam glad of it because it furnishes proof of this--that Government has watched us, and we have it on their own confession, that they could not find any thing illegal in us.—(Applause.)—This, then, is the triumph of which the Association may well be proud. We stand here fearless of the charge of having violated any existing law. Let it be shown to us that we have done so, and the whole Associa tion shall disperse as quietly as an individual. Having said so much of the Association, allow me to say a word of myself. Oh, that Government would but be wise; that it would but avail themselves of this opportunity ; that from their high places they would remind the Catholics of the occasion, for real occasion now presents itself, that they would say to the Catho lics, " See, a Protestant Jury says to you, we will do you jus tice."—(Applause.)—Let, then, Catholic and Protestant meet and embrace; let this be the commencement of a new era ; let all that has occurred before the 20th of December be forgotten ; and let this day be the first date of a rivalry who shall act most kindly and justly towards each other.—(Hear, hear, hear!) — As to myself, I deny that sedition can be fairly imputed to me. This leads me to a protestation of my principles—prin ciples which ought to be well known, but which, from re cent circumstances, I am desirous to repeat,—(Much ap plause.)—ln the first place, I am attached to an hereditary, monarchy, as a wholesome security for public property, pub lic peace, and individual happiness. For the King, who now fills the throne, I entertain an affectionate attachment— he was the first Monarch who ever visited Ireland for the purposes of benefiting it. I saw his eyes glisten with affection towards its people—l saw him confiding in their un armed attendance, without officers or guards, and treating us with confidence and kindness, as if we had known him, and he had known us, from his childhood. It is, therefore, that I say, from my heart, May God bless him !—Nor is it for this alone, but because I have also perceived, that when un encumbered by party connection or servile interests of lac don, he has had an opportunity of acting by himself, and on his own suggestion, he has acted conformably to the dignity of his station, to the feelings of humanity, and the dictates of Christianity. As an instance and specimen of this, take a passage from a late pi oclamation to the Hanoverians. It is to the following effect :—" The difference of the Christian reli gious communities cannot lead to any difference in the enjoy ment of civil and political rights, in the countries composing the Germanic Confederation." I could wish that the Germanic Confederation would extend to this country.—(A laugh.)— " We are induced to issue the following declaration and or dinance :—The several professors of the Christian faith enjoy a perfect equality of civil and political rights in this kingdom; and, in conformity with the said article, the notion of a predomi nant and a merely tolerated church is entirely abolished."— Oh ! I could wish we were Hanoverians. Here is an act worthy of a Monarch—a man—and am Ito be branded with sedition who rays this tribute of grateful admiration to the noble mind ot my beloved Sovereign—who, when left to die play of his own generous feelings, put forth a proclama tion with such a sentiment as this? For this noble declara tion, again I say (said Mr. O'Connell emphatically), my be loved Sovereign, may God bless you !—(Loud eheers.)—You, Sir, would consider toleration in religion to be an insult— you would regard the man who would say that he would tole rate you in your behalf, as a tyrant and a persecutor, and you concur with me in feeling that no man has a right to interpose his authority between man ' s conscience and his God.—(Ap-. 1 plause.)—l am not desirous of saying much of the wisdom of hereditary Peerage, but I am not insensible of the advantages when ancient family unites with virtue. It constitutes the grace of human life, and renders high life doubly useful, by the splendour of its exam*, and by the effect of its wide-spread mg influence. It is that grace and link of society which makes liberty valuable, and which gives security to the connection be tween the King and the people. The next part of the Constitu tion to which my attachment is strong and ardent, is the represen tation of the people ; on that subject my opinion is, that every man who is affected by the law has a right to a vote in theappoint ment of those who are to take a part in the enactment of the law.—This was established on a recurrence to the first prin ciples of the Constitution. Not to act upon it was only to con tinue a system which deluded by words, but which was not conformable to the real and substantial principles of the Con stitution. This opinion has not, however, influenced my duct in the Association further than I have thought political regeneration, could not be effected while sectarian dissensions distracted the land. It is not my wish to pull down the domi nant party from any station of emolument they may occupy ; but lam anxious that the country should not be torn by dis sensions; but there should be no longer a faction on one side, and the people on the other; but that the faction should mix with the people, and swell the current of national prosperity, contributing utility to this country, and augm . enting . the strength of the United Empire. With these principles it is not na tural to suppose I should join in any idle speculation, or che rish any seditious. sentiments. lam not now young enough (were I even inclined) to lend myself to any idle project.— Besides, 1 have attained the object of my legitimate ambition. As my friend Mr. Shell has said, I have given seven hostages to my country. My children have grown into manhood about me; my profession yields me more wealth than I could have expected from it; I have property, which I may say, Avitlsout my profession, would have left me independent. So situated, I should be the most absurd and drivelling dotard in the world, to entertain any other sentiments or principles than those which I am convinced are best calculated to lead to the establishment of tranquillity and peace—to promote a re-union of sentiment, to see commerce and manufactures advance, and flourish, so as to see this beautiful country, from being a part of the weak ness, become - a portion of the strength and greatness of this empire.—( Much applause.)—lt is our duty, as it is our in terest, to seek relief only through legitimate and constitu tional means. It would be madness—the very excess of in sanity—to presume to beard the English nation, to contrast ourselves with England in all its pomp of strength, to put in competition, for a moment, our bare-headed peasantry with her organized armies, and, if necessary, with the united armies of Europe. But although this were not, as it is, our in terest and advantage, yet we should, as our ancestors before us, from a sense of duty, submit to a code which, although we disliked it, yet we would endure, rather than shed one drop of , blood to embitter and disturb the happiness which is invariably to be found in the peace and tranquillity of a nation. Such is the spirit in which the Association was formed, and such is the spirit in which it was acted. We have done nothing that the law considers wrong, and we defy anat.iiaasan acing to find any part of our conduct which hai net been directed, and di rected successfully, to promote the peace of the country, to lay before the Legislature uur ints respectfully, but firmly, and to continue and persevere, until we shall have obtained these legitimate objects of legal and just demand.—(Applause.) —lt was but lately that I saw two resolutions adopted at a public meeting, at which Mr. Cropper took an active part.— The first declared that the peasantry wanted food, fire, and clothing ; and the second declared that the habitations of the Irish peasantry were unfit for human beings to live in. Now, one would naturally think that this came from some dema gogue, who wished to inflame the passions of the people, to stimulate them to disturbance, and to induce them to turn out, by awakening them to a sense of their wretchedness. But I find it is signed by Drury Jones, Lord Mayor. What, then,would the Legislature say, that a country capable of yielding food and firing, and clothing, and every other article necessary for hu man sustenance, should be in so wretched a state as to fail in the supply of them, and should be without habitations for human creatures to live in ?—(Hear, hear !)—We shall go before Par liament; we shall lay before them the causes of this misery, and we shall endeavour to have it investigated and redress ed. We shall say to the Legislator; " You have failed in converting . us —will you then exterminate us ; and if you do not exterminate us, will you exterminate our speech ? Are you determined that we shall feel the lash, a nd not dare to cry ?' (Cheers.)—Are the chains to manacle our limbs, and are we to be prohibited from making the declaration that they are not silken ?—(Loud cheers.)—Has the iron so entered our souls, that with a prostitution of language we are to utter the accents of content ? or rather will you not render this act of justice that we ask at your hands, and in return we tender you the splendid offering of a "holy alliance" in our affectionate loy alty, our gratitude, and fraternal attachment ; a bond of union which no casuality can shake—which the power of no nation, nor even the combined power of civilized Europe, can ever weaken or disturb. [Mr. O'Connell sat down amid the loud cheering of the Meeting, which continued for several minutes.] THE MURDER AT WHADDON CHASE. AYLSBURY, JAN. 12.—The prisoner, Charles Lynn, has been visited, sine his confinement in this jail, by the Marquis of Chandos, Lord Nugent, Lord Carrington, Sir George Dashwood King, and several other persons of dis tinction in the county; and every means has been used, con sistent with his situation, to obtain from him not only the motive that induced him to murder his friepd and companion, but also to obtain some'clpe thatqr . figh lead to a discovery of the fate of Mangan, Burnett's postmanVhose conti nued absence increases the Suspicion'theattachesikelf to the wretched man, and the unfortunate Hogg. Lord Nugent had had an interview with the prisoner on Tuesday, and was alone with him for nearly a quarter of an hour, during which time his Lordship was occupied in deep conversation with him. Mrs. Lynn, the unfortunate mother of the prisoner, arrived here on Tuesday evening, with one of her daughters, a young woman of very interesting appearance, and Mr. Hooper, a gen tleman residing at Newington, who married into the family All three were attired in deep mourning, and repaired to the White Hart Inn, next the prison. On Monday night, Mr. George Devall, a young man in the house of .Sir Robert Burnett and Company, an intimate ac quaintance of the deceased, as well as of the prisoner, arrived here, hearing a letter, couched in very affecting terms, im ploring him to seek forgiveness from the Almighty, and to pre pare for a transition, which shortly awaited him, by an earnest repentance of his crime, and intreating him to relieve the dreadful anxiety of the relatives of Mangan, by acknowledg. ing all he knew as to the absence of that individual; and con cluded by stating that he should see him (if permitted) on the following day. On Tuesday morning, about 12 o'clock, Mr. Devall was admitted to see the prisoner; he entered the cell with the letter in his hand. The prisoner advanced towards him, seemingly surprised, and exclaimed "Ah ! George, how do you do; why didn't you bring my sister, with you ? It was very kind to come and see me," and then shook him by the hand. Mr. Devall, on presenting the letter, burst into tears, and the prisoner said, very seriously, " Now, George, if you fret, I'll not read the letter at all. lam happy," He then broke the letter open hastily, and having read it, appeared deeply affected. In the afternoon, Mrs. Lynn, her daughter, and Mr. Hooper, were introduced to the prisoner, by Mr. Sheriff; the governor. On entering the cell, the prisoner, who was engaged in writing, did not observe them, but on raising his head, he first caught a sight of his distressed mother. He afterwards hung upon the neck of his agonized sister, and beg ged of her to console his mother, and not to be unhappy on his account, as he was ready to die. His mother intreated him to make a candid disclosure to her of the cause he had for destroy. ing Abraham Hogg. The prisoner then detailed, somewhat unconnectedly, the following most singular narrative, from which it would appear that he was either attempting to impose on his relations, or that at the time he committed the horrid deed, he was labouring under a false impression, arising from an aberration of intellect. lie said-- " I and Abraham went to the Saracen's Head Inn-yard, Snowhill, and got upon the Liverpool coach ; I saw two men in deep conversation with him, and two Gentlemen were on the coach; the two men who spoke with Abraham I knew to be Resurrection Men, and I was convinced that Abraham was agreeing to sell my body to them for the Surgeons, two of whom were on the coach. Justbefore the coach started, one of the Resurrection Men, who was dressed like a sailor, got a bottle of gin, and on the road they wanted me to drink two glasses for their one. The men afterwards threw the bottle away, and purchased another on the road. I and Abraham got down at the 'White Lion, at Brickhill, and the landlord and others were talking about robberies and murders; I din't like the con versation,lAnd I went to the public house opposite, and slept there that night. On the following morning I went to the White Lion, and the landlord said to me, " It is lucky fbr you that you were not up sooner, or your body would have been half way back to London by this time." I got on ano ther coach with Abraham, and passing by a common, I jo,mped down and ran away : Abraham followed with my I gun. When I got near a wood I heard the sound of horns and trumpets, and I thought the resurrection-men were after me, and that Abraham intended to kill me, and I am sure if I had not killed him he would have killed nie." She (the mother) then said what have you done with your money ? You know I gave you five guineas when you left me." He abruptly said, " Oh, I have given it all away." She said, " you know you had your fathee's watch, which you declared you would not part with, what have you done with it?" He answered, " they have taken that from me." The prisoner then observed that he had begun to write to her the whole particulars, and to re quest her to come and see him, and he took up the letter and thrust it in the fire. Mr. Hooper, in as delicate a manner as he could, desired him to say if he knew the cause of the absence of 3langan, as it was generully reported that he and Hogg had disposed of him in some way or other before they left London ? The prisoner seemed much hurt at the report, and declared most solemnly that he knew nothing whatever of Mangan. Mr. Hooper asked if Abraham Hogg knew any thing of him ? The prisoner replied anion-11,1y . _ 6 Not that 1 Irnaw of." Mr. H ooper, and the brother and sister of the prisoner, remained with him for about three quarters of an hour, and then took their leave. The mother, on quitting the cell, said she would come again and see him. He told her that he did not wish her to come again, as it would be painful to see her ; that he wanted for nothing, as he received every comfort from Mr. Sheriff, the governor. This morning Mrs. Lynn was ex tremely anxious to see her son once more before she left for London, and as she understood that the Rev. Mr. Ashfield, the chaplain to the gaol, intended to read prayers to the prisoner, she expressed a wish to be present ; she, her daughter, Mr. Hooper, and Mr. Devall, were admitted ; the prisoner paid deep attention to the religious exercise of the morning. After prayers the prisoner said his boots were heavy, and he wised for a pair of light shoes, which Mr. Devall purchased for him in the town, for which kindness the prisoner expressed him self very thankful. The parting was extremely painful to all present. Mrs. Lynn, Mr. Hooper, Miss Lynn, and Mr. De vall., started for London at three o'clock in the afternoon. There being no evidence taken before the Coroner to identify the body of the deceased to be that of Abraham Hogg, it be came necessary for the ends of justice that some of the rela tives should see it before it was interred. Accordingly George Hogg, a brother of the deceased, and Mr. Tier, a brother-in law, residing in Kennington-lane, Lambeth, started from the metropolis for that purpose. The funeral was to have taken place on Tuesday, but as they did not get clown till late in the evening of that day, it was feared on their arrival at Aylesbury that the interment had taken place. They had exhausted their finances in travelling, and having fifteen miles to go to Wiled don, they' made their situation known to Sir George Dash wood King, who advanced them money to pay for a post chaise and incidental expences, observing that there would be no opposition under such circumstances to the charge being out of the county rate. Sir George gave them a letter of in troduction to Mr. Lowndes, the Magistrate, requesting that the bearer might see the body, and if it had been interred, lie suggested the necessity of an exhumation taking place. They arrived at Whaddon at 9 o'clock on Tuesday night, and were accompanied by Mr. Lowndes and the constables to the church, where the body was lying in a shell in the aisle. On the lid being taken off, George Hogg was much affected, on viewing the mangled remains of his brother. He burst into tears, and exclaimed, "My poor murdered brother." Although not a feature in the face was discernible, yet he said that he started in swear positively to its being his brother's corpse.— 3 0 11 ta ig ce h , t.

O iw o;clock la forThrs Chase, which they had to pass over, and the density of the fog, they were lost for two or three hours, and at last got to a cottage, from whence they obtained a guide and light. Dur ing the time they had lost their way, they passed Snell's Copse, and did not arrive here till four o clock in the morning. It a ppears that Hogg and the prisoner booked their places by the Liverpool coach, in a fictitious name, the day before they left London. A coat was left by Hogg, at his lodgings, in Glasshouse-street, Vauxhall, on his quitting London, in the pocket of which was subsequently found the following re ceipt : " Mr. Smith two outs, for Liverpool, at half past six o'clock in the morning ; paid 10s. ; to pay 3/. 10s.; by the Tally-ho coach, on Wednesday. (Signed) " J. 111." This document was brought to Aylesbury by the brother George, and shewn to the prisoner by Collins, the turnkey, who asked him if he knew any thing of it ? The prisoner, on looking at it, after some hesitation, said " I know nothing about it." The paper was then returned to Mr. Tier The last few days the prisoner has been quite calm, and slept soundly at night. He is constantly watched, but in consequence of his composed manner, the strait waistcoat, with which he was bound at first, has been taken off. There are various opinions as to the soundness of his mind.
