HULL, SATURDAY, part of t pres any offenc This morning, at an early hour, great excitement was created in the town, by the report that a young man, well known among the commercial firms here, as engaged in the house of Thomas and Co., merchants, as a clerk in the cashier's department, had been robbed and murdered last night. The report turned out, unhappily, to be true. It appears that a pol;ceran, on going his rounds at three this morning, in Prospect-place, a cul-de-sac-street, with houses on one side only, built in the eastern suburbs of the town, discovered the body of a young man, lying on the edge of a ditch which separates the road in front of these houses from a piece of waste land which they over look. He at once communicated with the sergeant on duty, and they aroused the nearest surgeon, Mr. &miter, of Drypool, who, with a feeling that does him infinite credit, assisted to convey the body to his own house, where it was in a short time identified as that of Mr. F. W. Maplethorp, residing with his father, a retired' trades man in the above-named street. Marks of a scuffle on the pavement, and the dragging of a body across the road were perceivable, showing that the poor youth had been attacked within a few feet of his own threshold. The external appearances of the body indicated that death has been occasioned by suffocation, no marks of violence being observed, but some scratches as of human nails upon each cheek. A gold watch which the deceased carried had been torn from his waistcoat pocket, and his money, to the amount of XII, had also been taken from his person. Immediately after the discovery, Mr. M`Manus, the chief constable of police, was on the alert, and at eleven o'clock to-day, two men, giving the names of John Snape and John Smith, who had been apprehended at a low lodging-house, were placed at, the bar of the police-court on a charge of murder and highway robbery, and re manded till Tuesday. An inquest was held on the body this day, and ad journed till Wednesday. The evidence on both these in quiries went to show that the prisoners, being strangers in Hull, had immediately after the murder was supposed to have been committed taken a cab from the entry of the town for a 2s. drive on the Beverley-road, and there dis charged the cabman ; that the prisoner Snape had some scratches and bruises on his hands and arms, and that his clothing was torn and muddy, the earth on them bearing a resemblance to that which formed the bank of the ditch where the corpse was found. CHOLERA. ON BOARD SHIP.—We are sorry to hear that the ship Dundonald of 1372 tons from Bombay the 24th of March bound to Liverpool, was compelled to put into the Roads last evening with cholera on board. In a few days she lost seven of the crew, and eight others are still suffering from this fatal disease. Accounts from Bombay to the 19th of March make no mention of the existence of cholera in that city. The Dundonald lies off the shore about four miles.—Ceylon Times of April 6. SUPPLY OF LABOUR TO AUSTRALIA.—The Earl of Derby received, on Wednesday, at his official residence, Downing-street, the deputation appointed by the manu facturers of the West Riding of Yorkshire to urge upon the Government the necessity of immediately sending out an adequate supply of labour to Australia. Mr. Forster, one of the deputation, described the state of affairs in Australia, and urged the Importance of a supply of labour being sent out in June next, to be ready for the shearing season.—Lord Derby regretted that Sir John Pakington was unable to attend, as he had some important business which detained him in the House of Commons. He (Lord Derby) felt the exceeding importance of the matter now brought under his notice by the deputation, and he could assure them that the desire of the Government was to deal with it so as to apply the best remedy in their power. The present state of things in Australia was not only remarkable, but extremely embarrassing. The im mense gold region, covering a space of 700 miles, was daily rendering greater and greater productiveness ; and, therefore, he felt that the temptation which withdrew labour from sheep-farming would most likely have its influence on those who might be sent out. llis lordship read extracts from Governor Thorp's last despatch, in which his Excellency stated that the colonists preferred large numbers of emigrants to be having them all at once. at their disposal for this purpose, %. appropriate in sending out eight ship next seven months.

Hunter, commission and licensed passenger agent, for a breach of the 49th section of the Passenger Act, by " not having had exhibited in his office, or place of business, a list con taining the names and addresses of the persons holding his written authority to act as his agent as aforesaid ; and by not having transmitted a certified list of such persons as aforesaid to the complainer as the emigration officer stationed nearest to his place of business; whereby the said Thomas Oliphant Hunter is liable for such offence, and on conviction to the payment of a penalty not exceeding five pounds nor less than two pounds." An objection was made for the defendant, that the names of the agents so omitted to be published should be given in the information ; and it was stated by the government officer that one of the parties was Mr. Ferris, of Londonderry, and that another was Mr. Hunter's clerk, Scott. Pu'rsuer said his object in the present case was, that frequently he had found parties who had contravened the act, and especially this man Ferris, who last season had put false registers to contract tickets—though not for Mr. Hunter—upon which he (pursuer) called the atten tion of the emigration officer at Londonderry to the sub ject, and had got a letter from him assuring him that it would not occur again. There was another cause, too, which he need not specify, that led him to make an example of this case. As to the use of the list being hung up, he presumed that it was ordered so that an emigrant going into the office might see whether the ticket he had got bad been issued by an authorised party. It was not for him, however, to say why or wherefore the clause ivas there : it was sufficient that it was. He had often ,em to do so i but in the that th It case he must 'make an example, though, as he said, it was not necessary to say why or wherefore, and hoped the law would support him. _ _ Mr. M'Clure said the Pursuer had made a statement which to a certain degree was creditable to him, and in another way was not ; for he told the court that in this case no such notice as had been Riven to other parties had been sent, and wished the law to vindicate his authority. Now he (Mr. M'C.) could show the bench what the reason for this difference of treatment was ; and although not accustomed to such statements, he must declare it to be the most vindictive proceeding that had ever been brought before any court. The pursuer some days before had been making an examination of the ship Herald, and had Littered a threat, as would be shown in evidence, that he would make an example of that vessel, not for committed on the present occasion, but on to proof, were very pl occount of a transaction that happened on a previous voyage ; and he would also show that the averment then made by the pursuer was false, and produce the decision of the Sheriff of Renfrewshire upon the case. On her previous voyage, the Herald lay for five days at the Tail of the Bank, and it was stated by the pursuer, on the authority of a man named M`Kay, who had taken his passage, that there had been no provisions served out to the passengers during that time. [Mr. M'Clure here read part of the evidence, and the decision of the Sheriff substitute; confirmed by the principal Sheriff, assoilising the owners in that action, which had been raised by the man M'Kay to recover his passage money.] The pursuer was a witness on behalf of this man M'Kay, and assisted him in the case, in which he would not say that he was not doing his duty, or that he had not started upon a proper footing ; but he did say that he was grossly wrong in taking this man's statement without making proper inquiry, or looking to the evidence or the Sheriff's decision, before making it the ground of the present inquiry. Pursuer submitted ihat all this was irrelevant Mr. M'Clure said it was not, as it was his wish to show the pursuer's animus, because he hoped the court would find the defender entitled to expenses, and that would have something to do in fixing them. And he could say further, that if their honours did so the case would be represented in the proper quarter, because when an emi gration officer was invested with such large discretionary powers, they ought to be used with caution and discre tion, as they were given him for the service of the public and not for his own glorification. There was a feeling growing up among the whole trade against this man, who exercised his power so tyrannically that a representation must be made to have him removed. Pursuer persisted that all this was irrelevant. As for the case referred to, the young man had been ever since living upon his charity, and the case was not yet finished, for it was going into the Court of Session, as he considered that such a grievous wrong had been done to the young man that he was determined to see the end of it. When ever he heard the sheriff's decision he resolved that it should not end there, and it was removed to the Court of Session, where the young man was pursuing in forma panperis. Mr. Macfie asked if any steps bad been taken by pur suer in it ? _ _ Pursuer said he had, the very day the sherif'f's decision was made known to him. But he declared that he was animated by no vindictive feeling towards Mr.. Hunter on that ground, but to show hint that the law was stronger than he. His reason for enforcing the law on the present occasion was that on her present voyage some detention took place to the Herald, because he had found that pro visions had not been served out to the passengers, as should have been the case, and Mr. Hunter had declared to him on the quarter-deck that the vessel would go to sea without his license, thus lowering his dignity in the eyes of the passengers. Mr M'Clure said what he wanted to show was, first, how this case had originated, and then that it was no case. He (Mr. M'C.) had had occasion to write pursuer a letter, on the 27th of April, at the instance of Mr. John stone, the owner of the ship, on account of the manner in which pursuer had acted in regard to the Herald, both vessel and passengers having been thereby put in great peril, independently of the loss to the owners by deten tion. Pursuer would acknowledge that he was the insti gator of the action against the owners, and that after the sheriff bad decided in their favour, for a claim that was not originally more than £2'. altogether, they were now threatened to be dragged into court by a pauper, so that, result how it may, they could not get their expenses. Commander Brownrigg received his letter on the morning of the 28th,!and that very day he walked into , Mr. Hun ter's office, with witnesses, and asked if he had got a list of agents ? Was not that vindictive ? By his conduct be was putting a stop to the business of the port, for although he resided here he held his office in Glasgow, and he had now intimated that he would not receive any communica tion unless it was addressed to his office in Glasgow ; so that if a vessel was to be cleared, or her stores or passen gers examined, although he was on the spot, a letter must be sent to his office in Glasgow, where he would not get it till the afternoon, and thus a whole day was lost. Was the business of the port to suffer through this man in his thus injuriously applying the law ? He again submitted that there ought to be both a major and a minor proposi tion in the complaint, as this was a penal question. Mr. Macfie asked the pursuer if he had not stated that he had on similar occasions given notice to. other parties of their not having the list ? Pursuer said he had'. Mr. Macfie.—And would it not have served your pur pose quite as well to have done so in. this-case before pro secuting ? Prosecutor.—Mr. Hunter has brought it upon himself by his conduct ; he appears tube quite above the law. Defender said he had been accused of setting himself above the law, but from his having sat in that bench and from his conduct as a private citizen he believed it would be the opinion of all parties that he would be the very last person to do anything contrary to the law. The facts of the case were these. The pursuer was to have come and mustered the passengers by the Herald at four o'clock, but, according to his usual practice, he did not keep his appointment, and after waiting for him till half-past four, the ship was hauled out and taken to the Tail of the Bank. Afterwards, on going alongside another ship he was in formed that the pursuer was mustering her passengers, and had arranged to go next to the Londonderry, another ship, although he had promised to come to the Herald. When found, he agreed to come to the Herald, and he mustered the passengers, and a very hurried muster it was. The whole of the crew, twenty-five in number, were on board at the time, with the exception of three only, and on account of this, although they were most anxious to have it done, and the ship went to sea that night, he would not clear her. In consequence of the hasty muster which had been made by the pursuer, no less than six stowaways, who were afterwards found on board. were not then discovered, and had these been al lowed to proceed they would have made a very consider able effect on the water and provisions of the ship. When pursuer came on board again next day, he asked if they had served out provisions to the passengers ? and was told that they had been served out the previous evening until almost twelve o'clock at night, and in the morning he him self had seen the scales upondeck for the purpose of serving out tea and other articles, but the passengers begged them not to mind it atthat time, but to get to sea, as every onehad plenty of his own. At this time the ship, from the strength of a gale that was blowing, was dragging her anchors, and gave the Londonderry a foul berth—so. near that a biscuit could have been flung on board; and she was be sides within a stone cast of the shore. Pursuer again re fused to clear the ship, and it was then, and not till then, he (defender) told him that clear or not clear, she would go to sea that night. Although pursuer said that he was not prompted by any feeling in the matter, that was not the case ; and be (defender) was convinced the prosecution was instituted for other reasons than the pursuer men tioned. When the vessel was dragging her anchors and in danger of going ashore, the powerful steam-tug Meteor was brought to take her cut, but was unable, from the strength of the gale, to do so, and the Conqueror was brought to assist her, and while they were so engaged, and had just got the chains hove short, pursuer wished one of the steamers to he taken off to put him ashore. Mr. Balderston was sorry to say that the pursuer, by his own admission, did not appear to have given the same opportunity to Mr. Hunter as he had done to others simi larly situated. Defender said the case would not end here. Pursuer had come to his office like a spy and common informer, although he was aware he had applied in January to be licensed as a broker. Had it been done to protect her Majesty's subjects, he could not have objected, but to do so upon a mere point of form, was not the conduct one gentleman expecied from another. Mr. Macfie asked pursuer if ho really meant to go on with this case ? It was upon a mere point of form, and it would have strengthened pursuer's case if he had first pointed out the deficiency, and prosecuted afterwards if the defender refused to comply. Seeing that this had not been done, he thought the pursuer's object would be thout proceeding further. d, if he had ever found that Mr. Hunter had - bts mnaod most probably have 's ; but he had mis-statedthe case alto reed that he (pursuer) should - come to le o'clock in the morning t a boat could not co n on b The to tea ralavt: would go ashore with him. However, when he got on board the vessel he had to go below to take a new measurement, as a bulkhead had been put up after the vessel had left Glasgow, and the boat went off. While below, he asked the passengers if they had been served with provisions, and was told they had only got bread, when he went up and said he had been deceived, as he had been informed that the provisions had been served out, and would not clear the ship till it was done. Upon this defender said the vessel would go to sea whether he cleared her or not. To show bow willing he had been to oblige them, he had taken the Custom House papers out with him for greater despatch, as otherwise a boat would require to have gone ashore with him for them ; but al though this was done, when he wished to be put ashore he was told that he must wait till Mr. Johnstone and the others went, and was detained there for two hours. Mr. Macfie—But Mr. Hunter has told us that at thr time it was blowing so strong that to do so wog both ship and passengers in danger. Pursuer—lt would not have taken ten minutes Id have put and if I had not taken out the papers they would have to go be fore the ship sailed.

The court therefore decided that Ferris was not that gentleman's agent ; and intimated that pursuer should have made enquiry before entering the case. Pursuer said he was following his instructions, which .ain, and were tinon.this point Mr. Hunter had intimated th authorised, the ease would have been instituted against him, and would be still.' But after the treatment he had a, he took the only course left Defender declared that he had no intention of insulting pursuer in the ship, but he submitted that if the vessel was in danger of going on a lee shore, he would have been approbation of ma embers of departm of most of our seaports and mercantile ARIE TIES at is himself weary, will soon weary the public HT is a dull weapon, unless skill and good sense THY F. 39 the bottle said to owl-pile spruce" in your old age, don't and none when he found it on would look ' in your youth CONDITION SO low but may have hopes but may have fears, E quietness of heart is got by resisting our pas not by obeying them.

HOW TO GET RID OF BLACK BEETLES.—At the last meeting of the Entomological Society, the President (J. 0. Westwood, Esq.), referring to what transpired at the previous meeting of the society relative to the ridding of houses of the common black-beetle (blatta Orientelis), read a letter he had received from a gentleman detailing the particulars of a plan he had found highly effective. It consists merely in having a round hole cut in the kit chen hearth-stone, large enough to admit of a basin being inserted so that its rim is on a level with the stone : the basin is then baited at night with bread-crumbs, beer, &c. ; the insects fall in and cannot effect their escape, and are easily destroyed in the morning with boiling water, if re quired. During the day this simple contrivance may be covered over with an iron plata similar to a coal-plate.

If the value of the draught horses which are daily injured i)y falling, or being strained, in dragging heavy loads over the slippery pavement, which square-sets become after a few months' traffic have worn off their sharp edges, they would be found very costly to the public, and especially to the body to which I belong— the cartowners of Liverpool. I would also respectfully suggest to the paving and sewerage committee of the Council, that theoretical perfection in a road is not always practically advantageous. The crown of many of our newly-paved streets is much too high ; and creates a con tinual sideway strain upon horses, which often results in accidents. Any pedestrian may observe how cars and coaches, passing me:_ otLcr- rapidly, swing about as their drivers endeavour to regain the centre, which is the only safe and easy portion of the streets so constructed.—Your obedient servant, A CARTOWNER. Liverpool, 24th May, 1852. THE LICENSED VICTUALLERS AND THE WEIGHTS AND MEASURES OFFICERS. To the EDITOR of the LIVERPOOL STANDARD, SlR,—The tradesmen of the borough owe you a debt of gratitude for having called public attention to the haras sing way in which they are treated by the officers employed by the Corporation to enforce the provisions of the weights and measures act. lam sure that the respectable gentle men composing the finance committee cannot have been previously aware of the annoyances they unnecessarily created. There is another numerous body, however, to which I belong—the T ice , ssed Victuallers—who are suffer ing equally with the shopkeepers from the existing system. We do not object to the measures by which we sell being kept strictly correct, so far as is practicable with vessels constantly in use. There are I believe few of our body who do not give over, rather than under measure. But 1 think it is straining a point when the officers insist that the drinking cups which we use should be regarded as measures, and required to be adjusted and stamped. If made of glass, or earthenware, these are expressly exempted by the act of parliament from being stamped, the only restriction respecting them being that any cus omer may demand to have their contents tested by a stamped measure. But if we attempt to introduce a handsome metal drinking cup—and porter it is well known is preferred out of pewter or silver—the officers insist upon dinging or filling it until it is made to contain the standard pint or half-pint, and not a drop more. A neighbour of mine recently purchased in Birmingham a set of electro-plated cups, silver-mounted, and had his name engraved upon them. He was warned, however, that he must not use them until they were adjusted to the standard, which they exceeded. The bottom was glass, and could not be beaten up in the usual way. The rim bad a silver beading; and to file it down would destroy the beauty and deteriorate the value of the cup. His purchase was thus rendered useless to bin,. I could men tion many other similar cases. Surely, Sir, it is absurd to press the letter of the act thus severely upon our trade. We want to give full measure, and to please the taste of our customers ; but the law, as at present administered, will not let us. We pay, also, most exorbitantly, for being thus annoyed.—l am, Sir, your obedient servant, A LICENSED VICTUALLER.

We have much pleasure in hearing testimony to the great progress in the horticultural art which this exhibi tion indicated. The plants, though not quite so nume rous as on former occasions, very far surpassed, in point of quality, anything we had ever before seen exhibited at the Liverpool shows. We may mention particularly those of E. Moon, Esq., I. Hadwen, Esq., H. Winch, EN., C. Wilson, Esq., H. Sharpies, Esq., T. Morris, Esq., and the Messrs. Davies, nurserymen. The success which has attended the formation of a National Floricultural Society, for the purpose of deci. ding the merits of the myriads of seedling florists' flowers with which the public have hitherto been bewildered, has been such as to warrant an inquiry as to bow far associated societies may with advantage be e3tablished in the provinces In the Midland Counties this question is already on the Lapis, and we hear that the Manchester florists are also moving in the matter. Should this prove true, the Liverpool florists ought to be interested in the formation of a Lancashire Society ; one for each county being all that is thought of at present, and certainly more would be inconvenient. Whether these Provincial Soci eties. if established, will be of any real service to the of floriculture, is exceedingly problematical howeve is quite certain,—namely, that no an arise if they assume the qe functions as the tan Socicty The w in which local societies Df use, is by acting as arbitrators for deciding esirable to send to the supreme tribunal, and crease enor- such a tribunal becomes known. übmitted residing in the country, wl ) may hay to the d ropolitan , and are d could refer i to t justified in sending her to se, The Court asked if defen tickets were signed for him ? Defender said he had seen none of these tickets at all, for Mr. Somervail's clerk had come down, and with the assistance of his, had berthed the passengers. Mr. Macfie said Captain Brownrigg had some colour for making an inquiry after he saw the tickets, but he should have been sure of his ground before he came into court. They all knew Mr. hunter, both as a magistrate and a public and private man, and knew that he would not be the one willingly to do anything wrong. Pursuer had failed to prove his case, and as for the excuse he made for bringing it into court, he must say that if a person came into his offices with witnesses in the same way he would be inclined to give him a very short answer also, particularly seeing that there had been some differ ence before. Pursuer had been entirely wrong in bringing the case there at all. He had not shown that it was a thing that the public would suffer by, but merely a point cf form, and if he had taken the proper course the matter would have been at once explained, Pursuer said, if Mr. Hunter had hint that Mr. Ferris was not his have been troubled. Mr. Macfie was bound to say that if pursuer had applied to Mr. Hunter in the proper way, be would not have been cr was .ro the Oighest he would not agent, left without a proper answer. Pursuer said he did not know a single person here, and must just take people as he found them ; and he found defender shortly before offering to contravene the law and override his authority. Defender asked the court to allow him to contradict the assertion that he wished to override the law, and to repeat that the case had been got up from malicious and vindic tive motives. Pursuer did everything to hinder the busi ness of the port. He would come down to a ship and s(;arcely give any one a single answer, not to speak of the ridiculous and absurd rule of making them send every communication to Glasgow. when , he was here every day. But his conduct would not be allowed to rest here. Pursuer said he laughed at all this. Defender said he came down apparently ignorant of his proper duties and rules, and attempted to ride roughshod over both his authority and everything else. P'ursuer said this was the first quarrel he had had, and his character stood higher than to be affected by such remarks. After some further altercation, which was put a stop to, The Bench pronounced judgment, finding the complaint not proven, dismissing the case, and finding the defender entitled to £2 expenses, which was paid in court. THE RECENT ELOPEMENT' FROM BRIGHTON. The Nets York Herald, of the 7th inst., gives the fol lowing account of the singular elopement of Dr. Ploomer from this country, and its result : " Yesterday afternoon a very extraordinary affair took place before Mayor Kingsland, respecting the-capture of an English gentleman named Dr. Andrew Ploomer, of Brigh ton, England, on the complaint of Colonel T. A. Howard, of the British army, who charges that the doctor has defrauded him of £l,OOO sterling, amounting to about $9,000, undbr the following circumstances, Ec. detailed by the colonel before the mayor :—lt seems that the colonel and the doctor were intimate friends, residing at Brighton, England, and a few weeks ago the colonel concluded to to take a tour, and left for Boulogne ; but previous to leaving, the doctor, knowing that the colonel had the above-named amount of money in the house, persuaded him to let him (the doctor) place it in his bank• for safe keeping during his absence. The colonel, haring implicit confidence in his friend the doctor, agreed to the proposi tion, and accordingly let him have the money.. The doc tor then deposited the money in the bank to his own cre dit. The colonel left on his tour; but scarcely had he been gone a week before the doctor conceived a plan whereby to possess the funds himself; and,in order-to do so he drew the money from the bank, abandoned his wife and four children, and eloped with a Miss Emma Patterson, a girl of very genteel appearance, 19 years of age, and rather good-lookinge the daughter of a neighbour, a Siding master in the town of Brighton, They, together with the £9,000, took passage for this country in the steam-ship Niagara, arriving at Boston on Saturday last, and forth with proceeded to this city, as man and wife, putting up at the Irving-house. As soon as the elopement was disco vered, the colonel was advised of the fact, and, ascertain ing that the guilty persons had taken passage in the steam-ship for this country, he therefore took passage himself in pursuit in the steam-ship Europa, which arrived at this port on Thursday evening. The counsel of the British consul was sought by Colonel Howard, and Mr. Bowyer, ona of our expert police-officers, was sent for to ferret out the whereabouts of the runaway doctor. Mr. Bowyer started on the search, and the same night suc ceeded in detecting the doctor at the Irving-house. The fact was communicated to Mr. Howard, the proprietor of the hotel, who gave the officer some information respect ing them. He said that the doctor on Monday morning informed him that a trunk containing a. good deal of his wife's wardrobe had been lost, and therefore wished to be recommended to a store, in order to replenish the cloth ing. Mr. Stewart's store was recommended for that-pur pose, and the doctor and his wife made purchases amount ing to $204, which was paid by Mr. Froward. As the whole affair could not be construed into a criminal matter, a civil suit was brought by the colonel against the doctor for the recovery of the money. On this suit a writ was issued, with an order to hold to bail. All now being in readiness, Mr. Bowyer called upon the doctor about two o'clock,, and requested him very-politely to accompany him to the mayor's office, for the purpose of examining some lady's wearing apparel, supposed to he the articles alleged to be lost by his wife. The doctor consented to go, and the officer ushered him into the private office of the mayor, where he was requested to be seated. In a few- minutes after, instead of being shown some wearing apparel, who should be introduced to the room but Colonel Howard, the claimant of the money. The colonel, who is a man possibly over fifty years of age, became very much excited, and exclaimed, ' Give me back my money, sir.' The doctor replied, in a very cool and collected manner, ' / have no money of yours. 'You loaned me some money, but I have no money belonging to you now.' The deputy sheriff then served the process, and took him into custody. The doctor, finding himself arrested, requested counsel. Ex -Recorder Tallmadge was sent for, whom he engaged to act in his behalf. Miss Emma Patterson was then brought before the mayor by the proprietor of the hotel. A letter from her parents was handed to her by the mayor, brought by Colonel Howard, written in the most affec tionate manner, imploring her to return and receive their forgiveness ; also a letter, exhibiting deep feeling, from the wife of the doctor, was shown to the mayor, deploring the terrible disgrace brought upon herself and children by the conduct of her husband. Emma rdfuses to return, and exhibits much love and attachment for the doctor. They embraced each ether at parting in the mayor's office. The doctor was taken off by the sheriff to gaol, and Emma back to the Irving-house, under the escort and protection of Mr. Howard, the proprietor of the hotel." THE MeltDEEk OF LORD Nonnyny.—A soldier of the 67th dep6t, quartered at Dover Heights Barracks, while confined at the guard-house a few nights ago, con fessed to the sergeant of the guard being the murderer of the late Lord Norbury. in Ireland, some ten years since, at noon-day. in his park. The man stated that he shot the unfortunate nobleman, and gave a detailed account of the murder, (which the sergeant very properly committed to writing in the presense of two men of the guard,) and as he comes from the locality in which the murder was perpetrated, there seemed a probability of the truth of his admissions. He added that he entered the army after committing the decd. A communication has since been received at Dover from Dublin Castle, to the effect that the confession which Daugheney had made was devoid of truth. The whole of what ho had stated had been sub jected to a careful inquiry, and the entire story was a fabrication.
