Arbaces went a mile by himself gently. Regalia did a mile and a half at a nice pace. Friday. The same team came out, and were sent two sharp cantors of three quar ters of a mile. Nothing galloped from Danebury. Regalia went a nice gallop of a mile and a half, and I never Saw hor move better than she does now. MALTort.--Lady Zotland is undergoing a thorough pre paration to fulfil her York engagements. As regards our Chester horses, Blacklock has three engagements. Ile is well, and has undergone a thorough pieparation, and whichever race they run him in he will about win. Agrippa, in the Chester Produce Stakes, I would advise for a place investment. Skylark and Fichu are also en gaged, but they will be absentees. In the Chester Cup we have War and Viscount, who left on Thursday morning, accompanied by Westwick, who is in the Great Northern, to be tried on the Kuavesmire. Lady Zotland and Go9rge Osbaldeston were sent a splendid sweat this morning of four miles, bath pulling up sound and well. CHILTON.— ill looking over the prograarne of the Ches ter meeting I find that Cara is the only one engaged. She is in the Chester Produce Stakes, and should she run will be worth your real, rs' attention. She has been doing good work of a mile, and will be found up to the mark. Osprey is doing good work of a tulle, going in rare form Country Bumpkin is going particularly well. Precocious has improved very much, and I Teel sure that we have not seen his real form yet. St. Agnes, Secoinlhaud, Alberta, 3laesgwatha, Thu Scout, Kicksy Wicksy, Careful, Congra tulator, Betlow Lass, Pelisse, Chateaux Margaux, and the Muscovite colt are all taking healthy exercise, from a mile to a mile and a half. AVtea is taking some steady canters of about half a mile each, looking in first-class order. Clatfo-d, Varnish, Triana, and tho filly by Caliban are taking things very easily, but aro all in the best of health. STANTON-At Chester wo have Parma, Isis, Catton, Con. undrum, and The Returned engaged in the Eaton Plate. All have been doing good work, and whichever is sent to the post will be difficult to beat. The Returned is in the Chesterfield Stakes, which he ought to land. lie is, how ever, also in th 6 Palatine Stakes, on the same day. Should Jove bo pulled out for the City Members' Plate he cannot well lose it. Our best for the Cup will be found in Grey Stocking, whom I fully expect to see finish one of the first three. Sportsman, Attack colt, .and See-Saw are also en gaged. The first-named is an invalid, and See-Saw has been eased in his work for the last three days, only having had ono canter. He is,- however, very well, and in my next report I shall bo able to speak more definitely as to whether ho will go or not. The Attack colt has got a race in hug for no very remote ptriod, but I am not very partial to his chance here. We ought to win the Flying Handi cap with one of our four engaged—viz., Parma, Catton, Conundrum, and The Returned. Tarquin, Jove, Palmi tine, and the Lady Evelyn filly are in the two year old Plato, and should the first-named go, he would win. The following horses, besides those above-mentioned, are being sent along: —Christmas Carol, Ruric, Marlyon, Batonnier, Pronesse, Licymnia, Fidolia, Souvenance, Shelah colt, Bon Block, Gordian Knot, and Jeanie Deans. The Ranee colt broke down badly while galloping on Wednesday morn ing. True Heart has been added to the list of geldings. ILBLEY. —ln the Chester Cup Dalby, Viridis, Landscape, and Hammerton are engaged. Since my last report Dalby has done well. On Tuesday morning Mr. Bennett was here, and gave Dalby and Viridis a good gallop, the old horse having all the best of it. Wednesday, Dalby only walked, and this (Thursday) morning he had ono canter of three-quarters of a mile and a steady gallop of about one mile, going freely and well. Although he has not done a lot of long fast work, he is as fit as any horse can be : made. Ho looks and goes beautifully, and in my opinion is sure to win. Viridis your readers saw run at head-quarfers, so they can judge for themselves. Land scape has had-a good preparation for this event, and is' , very fit, looking and going first class, and will take a deal of doing if ho runs. Hammerton is only a moderate horse. Dawdle, Lady Clinton, Practitioner, Canard, and Proctor are in the Eaton Plate, and I like the chance of Lady Clinton the best, and she ought to win. Ironmaster, in the Chesterfield Stakes, has plenty of weight to carry. The Wynnstay Stakes either Viridis or Weather Isle will win. lIEDNESFORD.—We have a lot of horses rattling along for their engagements at Chester, and most of them are looking first-rate. We have nothing in the Cup. The Clown is in several stakes, his first go being the Eaton Plate, but we have St. Valentine in also, and I fancy the latter. Welter Cup.--Kidderminster and Do Clare geld ing are in ; the first-named is at Newmarket, and I like the De Clare gelding best. William is in the Chesterfield Stakes with Ilium, and both are in strong work. The latter is a good-looking horse. I don't think much of The Clown's chance for the Wynnstay Handicap. The Rock, Ilium, and Bedford are in the Palatine Stakes.. The first named -I have not seen for some time, but the other two are looking:beautiful. Ilium is a very taking horse. Oceana may run for the Belgrave Stakes, but she will surprise me if she wins. • St. Valentine and The Clown are in the Flying Stakes, but the latter is no "flyer." In the Two Year Old Plate I must look to Namouna. Alicia is in the Westminster Platte', but she is very moderate. Uncas will land the Deo Stakes. Rejoinder I like best in the Cestrian Handicap. Sister to Plying Jib is a horrid bad. mare. President Lincoln and Greenhorn are the best in the Stam ford 'Welter Handicap; the former is very much improved. The Clown is in the Comb2rmere PLO, but, although he is well, I fancy he is slow. TINDON.--Next week at Chester we shall have several horses. On the Ellen Plate, Indian Star and Mistletoe are engaged, but I don't know which will run. Welter Cup. —Rabbit Trap has done a great deal of work, and the horse looks and goes well. Chester Cup.—Romping Girl, Proserpine, Th a li a, Nelaton, S ister to V e d ette, an d D emon are our lot. R omp i ng Girl has been d o i ng p l en t y o f wor k . Proserpine is goi ng an d l oo ki ng well, having boon at her work regul ar l y . Of Thalia all I can say is that since I last wrote she has had daily two canters of a mile and a gallop of a mile and a quarter. Nelaton has done well, and is not like the same horse he was when he came here. Sister to Vedett e l ooks well, an d h as d one a b un d ance o f work, and s o h as t h e Demon. Belgrave S ta k es. —M erry Lass is going on a l l right. Fly i ng Handicap. —lndian Star, Mistletoe, yreemason, and Icicle are in. Indian Star and Freemason went to Newmarket last Sunday; previ ous to that they had done good work, and so have the other two ; but I have thought that Mistletoe of late has bad a stale look. Marquis of Westminster's Plate.— Romping Girl, Thalia, Proserpine, Sister to Vedette, and Demon are in, but these I have already alluded to. FYPIELD.—We have nothing engaged ut Chester next week at present. The following horses are all well, and doing some nice work daily :—Tremble, Boanerges, Pic nic, Maid of Masham mare, Whalebone, Gentle Mary, Marshal Ney, Rattlebone filly, Hoplite, Torn Taylor, Lockeridge, Sag ax , A cton, Sister t o F ranc hi se, R ed Rib bon, Ellen Ho rne colt, and lona filly. P ortsmouth at pre sent is only walking, having been in physic. LAMBOURNE.--011r horses for Chester will comprise most of the following: —Lady Rosehill, Rhine Wine, Pa trician, Curfew Bell, Prince George, Peggy, Seaman, Dia dem, Una, Meliora, The Don, Spitfire, Musa, and Defen der. in the Eaton Plat., Lady Rosehill, Rhine Wino, Patrician, The Don, Curfew Bell, and Prince George aro engaged. If I knew that Rhine Wine was going for it he would carry my money, but in his stead I should stand Lady Rosehill. Welter Cup—Peggy is little bettor than a donkey. Chesterfield Stakes—We have Prince George, Seaman, and Diadem, and I must go for Seaman, who, I think, is sure to finish in the front rank. Mostyn Stakes --Una has no chance. EPSOM.—Nothing of importance has occurred since my last, except that the Squire's promising colt by Dundee out of Cotytto, on returning from exercise on Tuesday, unfortunately fell and broke both his knees. Wednesday —Merry Andrew, Pocket Hercules, Nutpecker, and Cecil went a good gallop, and Roving Maid and Antics had a good sweat of nearly three miles. Hughes had Professor Anderson, Powderham, Melinda, Ambitious, Young Ra pid, Master Robert, and two two year olds doing steady work on Six Mile Hill. Thursday—John Bull left Cara doe, colt by Neville, and colt by Ben Webster a three mile and a half sweat. Skirmish wont along at a nice pace, fol l owe d by Berserker and Ampleforth. Beeswiug, for the first time since since her going amiss, took two gentle canters. Tormentor, Glasgow, and Baroness went the mile twice. Friday—Beeswing again did two nice can ters. Lady Pam was an absen tee, p h a a t v ie i n n e g e, g ß o a n l e de o r n , a a n v d is s it o t; : Savernake. r '31 1, 1 xdwi somed zs. A Tr t ai ru C ee h 'w e V s oa t r e nk r ,Doinni Six Mitil t luep,Hill. Black Diamond and Lictor are engaged. The latter is at Newmarkat from Lewes, and whether he will go on to Chester or not I cannot say, but in my opinion, if ho is wanted, ho will beat the favourite, Paul Jones. Black Diamond is doing no work, and could have no chance if ho were. Badmin ton Stakes.—Festive is in, and she is a nice filly, but at present is l oo ki n g badly, and I should think will not be sent. There is nothing scarcely doing in the way of train ing hate, but Tom Vernon is leading a fow rough-looking two year olds. There is no chance of gettiog any nevi from Telscombe, as every one in the village appears to be mute, having had, I should say, their mouths stopped. From what I have aeon of Paul, I am really of opinion that Lictor is the better of the two, but I think neither will win. EMIGRATION FROM TIM MERSEY.--The emigration from the Mersey during the past month shows a consider able increase. Twenty-seven Government ships sailed to the United States with 15,527 steerage and 487 cabin pas sengers. The bulk of the steerage passengers wore fo reigners and Irish. 2,123 emigrants sailed direct to Canada. The total emigration under the Act was 18,137. Of ships not under the Act `22 sailed to v ar i ous parts with 715 pas sengers. The total emigration for the month was 18,&'2, against 13,728 in the corresponding month of last year, showing an increase of 5,124. During a quarter of a century Horniman's Teas have had an immense sale, and as they are nowBdper pound Cheaper, in consequence of the Reduced Duty, the demand will doubtless ba even, further extended. Sold, secured in Paekett?; genuine are §iga94 liorniman and co., Loudon. _ SPORTING OPINIONS. Mr. Tophatn has exercised his usual industry in ca tering for his Cestrian friends, as his bill of faro is an unusually good one, all the closed races haisiing secured large entries, whilst speculation on the C'up has within the last few days become so " hot and heavy," in respect of two or three of the horses eta gaged, that this year's contest is sure to cause moire excitement than any that has taken place since Nancy achieved her great victory over Black Doc tor and Hesse Homburgh in 1851. Of the eight races on the list for the first day (Tuesday) six have closed with good entries ; but 1 regret to say the most interesting event, the Grosvexor Trial Plate, did not fill, and has been reopened in the shape of a handicap, of which there are far too many in the list, if it. Could be possibly avoided. The Chesteraeld Stakes, for three year oils, one of the old standing dish3s, has always secured a good entry, awl on this occasion -seveatee 1 horses have been naninated for it, of whom I prefer BLAcK - LOCK, 7st 31b, and BESSLE DIXON, 7tit 31b. In the Palatine Stakes, a weight-for-age racy, With certain allowances, nine, horses. are engaged. rhe distance is a little over a wile an.J a Tizrter, which iS SO suited to SALAMANCA and •MELioita that they inn-.t be ray choice, and I prefer the latter. In the Mosty-ti Stakes thirteen youngste:3 are en gaged, all of whom are " d trk," consequently I can give no opinion about them, but from their bread ing I think the race - is likely to fall to one of Weever's lot, which numbers three. For the Eaton Handicap, a " fly" race of half a mile, twenty-nine horses have been weighted, and I consider it likely to fall to the best of Wadlow's, who has four horses engaged, or to either Isis, 7st glb, PATRICIAN, Gat 41b, or SIR OLIVER, 7st 121 b. For the Welter Cup thirteen horses have been nominated, the two I consider to have the best chance being Titnm PE: CENT, 5 yrs, list 21b, and RABBIT TRAP, 4 yrs, lOst. The iVyanstay Stakes secured an entry of thirteen horses, who have to run a mile; ani in my opinion it will fall to either GOOJERAT, 5 yrs, 7st 121 b, or BESSIE. DIXON, 3 yrs, 6st 21b. For l‘rodues.lay there is a very strong list, as besides the Cup, there are the Flying Handicap, the City Members' Plate, the Belgrave Stakes, the Dee Stand Cup, the Great Chester Produce Stakes, the Stand Stakes, and a selling race, which has not yet closed. The field for the Cup is not likely to exceed eighteen. PROBIBLE STARTERS AND JOCKEYS. Horse. • Jockey. Strathconan, 5 yrs, Bst Ilb J. Snowdon. Dalby, aged, Bst 81b Goodwood, 4 yrs, 84 41b Caithness, 5 yrs, 7st 131 b Hibbord. Abergeldie, 5 yrs, 7st 71b °haHoner. Grey Stocking, 5 yrs, 7st 41b Maidment.

Landscape, 3 yrs, sst 111 b Hammorton, 3 yrs, sst 111 b Stokeley, 4 yrs, bat 61b ... . _ _ Strathconan has run well over this course, which is something in his favour, but I do not believe him to be good enough to pull through under such a heavy weight as he has to carry, well as he has run on several occasions. Dalby I look up3n as very unlikely to start, as his owner has not been afforded au opportunity of backing him, being forestalled by the public; but independent of any such considers tion Ido not believe him good enough to win under such a heavy impost as ast 81b, which is 151 b more than he carried in 1866, and 281 b more than he was successful with in the preceding year. Good wood wants the turn of speed so necessary over the Roodee,and is far from favourably weighted. Caith ness may run to serve his stable companion, Strad broke, but further he will have nothing to do with the race. Abergeldie won't like the distance, and when Speculum " walked away" from him for the City and Suburban, at a difference of 141 b, there is but little hope of his beating Paul Jones, if they have made no mistake in his trial, when he has to ( - rive the latter 191 b. John Scott has War and ~, Viscount engaged, and if the betting is any guide, the latter will represent NVnitewall, as s emu " long shots" have been taken about hi:n ; bat nevertheless, I do not fancy him, nor indeed any of The Marquis's progeny th it I 11 tve seen. Bracken has been so often going to do a good thing, and never accomplishe I it, that I do not expect to se3 him gazette I the wintnr of this great race, and I cannot see how he is to give the, weight he has to do to Deceit. Saville has been backed, but on what grounds I am at a loss to know, as her best performance was winning. the Great Yorkshire Handicap, which at best was but a poor_ one, cansi daring that Thalia and Man lrake finished close up with her, the former giving her 121 b, and Mandrake 161 b. Thalia and Nelaton may represent Findon, but after what we saw of the former at Epsom and NorthaMpton her chance is hope less; and I fear N e l a t on i s not muc h b etter , as Owain Glyndwr was regarded to be the best horse trained by W. Goater until his leg failed, and necessitated his being struck out. Palisade is a fine filly, with plenty of speed, but I do not be lieve she will stay two miles and a quarter. Beauty I will not believe to be a stayer until I see it, and even should she be, it is not likely that she can give 121 b, beside the sex's allowance, to a horse tried so highly as Paul Jones is said to have been. Trea sure Trove has been backed by the outside public doubtless owing to his being well in, and to the re collection of his having carried off the Metropolitan when three years old. Nevertheless, as he is. trained in the same stable as Paul Jones, the place the latter holds in the market shows that Treasure Trove is not likely to fall into the hands of his backers. The Priest and Minster Bell represent Tupgill, and it would not in the least surpris3 me to see "Dangerous Dawson" effect as great a coup as he di 1 with 'Tin Whiflbr in 1862. Deceit is' favourably weighted, and if he has improved in the same proportions as three year olds are supposed to do, he ought to at least get a place. Stradbroke was hacked with such spirit at one time for the City and Suburban that his stable must have re garded his chance to be a good one ; but unfortu nately for those who followed suit with his astute owner, and put their money on the son of Virago, he got a blow on the eye about a fortnight before the race, which necessitated his being stopped iu his work, and as its inflamed . and "weeping" condi tion at Epsom was very perceptible, Stradbroke doubtless failed to run so well as anticipated. Since then the horse has gone on well, and having had a favourable trial, he has again been backed by his owner, who makes no secret that he believes he has the Chester Cup within his grasp ; and as Regalia, Caithness, and bettor still, Formosa, are in the stable, he surely ought to know what Stradbroke can do with Paul Jones; Formosa has been tried with Philosopher, who, it will be remembered, ran Paul Jones to a head for the Trial Stakes at Epsom. Paul Jones is one of the best looking horses of his year, and being bred much alike to Formosa, being by Buccaneer out of a Chanticleer mare; it is not sur prising that he last year showed good form by win ning the Goodwood Nursery, and that he this spring won the Trial Stakes at Epsom, as above noticed. . That performance was a slovenly one, as he only beat Philosopher by a head ; but as he was then far from fit, that race must not be taken as a criterion of his merit. Since then he has had a rattling 'reparation, and having won a high trial, in which he is said to have worsted Mariner and other good tackle without an effort, there is such a large commission out to back him that he is now at the unprecedeutedly short price of sto 2. To sum up these remarks, 1 believe TRAINING REPORTS. KINGSCLERE, Friday.—Satyr, Vabalathus, Cotytto, Fakir, Poro, Gomez, Nyl Gau, Sister to Rosicrucian, Vaga bond, King Cophetua, and Siderolite came out under the eharge of the head lad. Siderolite was doing walking exercise, but is improving in himself. Fakir and Cotytto were doing gentle exerc:se only. Satyr galloped by him self two miles at a steady pace. Vabalathus led King Cophetua, Pero, Gomez, Nyl Gau, Sister to Rosicrucian, a nice gallop of nem ly a mile. RICUMOND.—Since my last report things have gone on very quietly here, as Watson, Snowden, and Lund have been at Newmarket. On Tuesday Raunds sweated, land all the others did , fair work. Buttercup has again ap peared at exercise, and she looks big and well. She is a great fancy of mine for the Great Northern Handicap. Circe is taking gentle exorcise, but Viridior is, I think, used up, as he does not put in an appearance. Lord Zet land's trainer is rattling his lot along, the most note worthy of which is Great des Batailles. He goes freely and well, but I have no great liking for him for the Great Northern, as I expect either Chelsea or Buttercup will boat, him: Adamant, Strathconan, Scotchman's Pride, Wee- Wee Flower, Festivity, King Hal, Attache, Caprera, Stella, The Gleaner, Ashbank, Polecat, Moldavia, New land, Evelina, Popgun, Rul Tub, Quality, Philsopher, and several others are doing well. MIDDLEHAX.—The following horses are likely to go to Chester : —Priest, Czar, Rococo, Dean, Minster Bell, Bracey filly, Corporal, Lady Flora, Mercury, Good Hope,. Zingara, Castanet, Bracken, Pride of Erin, Warwick, Three per Cent., Affection, Palisade, and ono or two more. The above are all fit and well. In tho Eaton Plate The Dean will be our best, and Pride of Erin will beat the Braxoy filly in the Chesterfield Stakes. The first-named is a nice filly, and will also about win in the Mostyn Stakes. Wynnstay Handicap—Corporal, Castanet, and Lady Flora are in, and the selected of Dawson's will win —I fancy Lady Flora. Czar is our best for the Palatine Stakes. , - Chester Cup -We have Bracken, Minster Bell, Priest, Mercury, and Palisade. The last named is not class enough. Bracken I have no fancy for. He has trained very light of late, and Mercury, I think, will not be required, as he is not up to the mark yet; but he is a great horse when fit. The Priest has thickened and grown into a splendid animal, and goes as strong as a lion, and should this bo his journey he will be bad to boat, but he haa several other engagements at Chester, and should not be lost sight of in anything he may run for. Minster Bell has also done well, and might bo the selected one. She appears to stay well, and may run forward with her light weight, but I have the most liking for her in the Westminster Plate and Cheshire Stakes, for which she is worth looking after. Chester Produce Stakes.—Farceur is a useful colt, but baokward in condition. STOCKBRIDGE.-0a Wednesday our horses had their usual cantors, and then Cock of the Walk led Espartero, Lopez, Blucher, Standard Bearer, Rows,llan, and the Black bird colt a good gallop. Cuckoo led Miss Foote, Lady Di, Lady Cecilia, and Crucifixion filly about three-quarters. of a mile at a good pace. Regalia went a mile and a half by herself. Logarithm led Lady Elizabeth a nice gallop of a mile and a half, both going remarkably well. They were followed by Herald, leading Birdseeker, Equerry, and Sum mer's Eve. Mr. Briggs and Lady Raglan want a mile and a quarter. Thursday.—The same lot were out, and cantered on the Houghton Downs. They worn taken away in a hurry because we should not see their tactics, but it is no use their playing a hide-and-seek game with us, as they cannot get out of our way. The first to gallop was Loga rithm, leading Lady Elizabeth a mile and a half on the long grass, finishing the last three quarters of a mile all up a hill ; thiS is about the hardest gallop on the Downs. The Blackbird colt and Boaster galloped a mile. Mr. Briggs and Lady Raglan wont a mile and a half. Cock of the Walk led Herald, Equerry, and Birdseeker• the same distance. Summer's Eve led Espartero, Blucher, Lopez, Standard Bearer, Rowallan, aad Amethyet colt about -a PAUL JONES AND STRA.DBROKE will be first and second. For the Dee Stakes Uncas ha 3 not much to fear in See Stw, and the best of his other opponents being such as Co.:k of the Walk, Black Diamond, Idalia, lielvelyn, Macsalwch, his Derby backers need not fear that he will be. defeated. The Two Year 011 Plate, five furlong; being worth 200 soy; there should be plenty to oppose Palmitine, King of the Rover; and Perfume, the best that have been out yet, although it will be dial- Cult to tinl one capable of beating both the first- . named, King of the Rovers having no penalty. The la , t day's handicaps are scarcely worth looking at, all we can observe being that Knight of the Garter looks threatening for the City Plate, as does his party for the Steward's' Cup, with Blinkhoolie to help them. But neither may show at Chester and then Fervacques or Dalby will have to win the latter event. The Badminton Stakes, the last affair requiring our attention, is also subject to what may previously transpire, our present fancy being for Perfume and King of the Robbers. SPORTING PROPHECIES.

Intelligence was received to-day at the Man sion House that a barbarous attempt at murder had been made in the City last night, and Mr. Gore, the assistant clerk to the Lord Mayor, was forthwith sent to Guy's Hospital to take the declaration of the victim; who was alleged by the house surgeon there to be dying. The circumstances, so far as they have yet been elicited, appear to have been somewhat similar to those of the Canon-street murder. The un fortunate woman is named Manus, and sho was the housekeeper at a hour .-3 in Catherine court, Seething-lane. The outrage was committed abort nine o'clock last night, and by two men who were concealed on the premises of which she had charge. The house in which it took place is in the immediate neighbourhopd of the Seething-lane Police -station. Catherine-court is composed of what were private residences of a superior kind, but which are now let out as merchants' offices, and runs into Tower-hill. The outrage has naturally produced a great sensation in the immediate neigh bourhood. 711 E MURDER AT DOVER. DOVER, Saturday Morning. This morning the prisoner was brought up for examination before the magistrates charged with the murder of Mr. Edward Alfred Walsh. From the evidence it appeared that Wells has been employed at the Priory station for about 18 months, but his conduct had not given satisfaction, and Mr. Walsh found it necessary - on several occasions to re primand him. His particular misconduct—which led to such a murderous act of revenge—was prac tising with a firearm on the station premises. He denied that he bad done so in a very barefaced manner, and was cautioned by the deceased as to the public con sequences of his persisting in a foolish denial, which only aggravated the original offence. This was on Thursday, and on Friday he was again called into the office, but as he exhibited no signs of a desire to admit his misconduct and express regret, Mr. Walsh threatened to report him. On Thursday Wells had been heard to threaten to "do for the —" (meaning the station master), and after the interview on Friday he appears to have gone and fetched his gun from the place where he bad been practising, and then returned to the station master's °thee. He looked in at the window, saw that Mr. Walsh was in the office, then went to the half-opened door, raised the gun to his shoulder, and fired at Mr. Walsh. That unfortunate gentle man, at this moment, was standing with his back to the fireplace, dictating to Mr. H. Cox, the company's customs and goods agent, who sat at the office table, a letter to Mr. Martin, the superintendent of the Eastern Division of the London, Chatham, and Dover Railway line, reporting the misconduct of the porter in questi6n. The office is a very small room, and at the time it was fired the muzzle of the gun could not haw been more than a couple of yards from the person at whom it was directed. Its aiea was only too sure. The bullet, of what is called the Minie shape, struck Mr. Walsh in the face, a little to the left of the br k id . g e of the nose, and passed through the head, st the wall beyond, taking tiling on to the skull of the deceased, and then reboui h Deat was table at which Mr. Cox was writing• through the in stantaneous, the bulletpassing right with it a portion of - th g e p second-class coach in pri soner was found in a brain, and tearing away a 4 outs i de th e station. bag the ton of the face.
