THE RECENT MURDER IN IRELAND.

NIMACH, SUNDAY.—There an DOW sin persons in =
of the police. One of these is the steward of the d
gentleman, named Madden. He was at the inquest, and a
portion of the jury were anxious thee he should be ex-
&edited, but the crown would not put him forward as
their witness. Under these circumstances be was not

examined • and after the inquest be was told to
consider himself a prisoner. He was conducted by
' Mr. Remsbottom, the sub-inspector, to his room.
The room was searched, and • box was found
which contained money in notes and otherwise. The police
desired the steward to count the money, which he corn-
' mewed to do. They then stopped him in that proceeding
and desired him to state how much money was there, and
he replied 70/. He went on counting, and made • mistake
with regard to a 101. note, which he reckoned as for one pound
and also the same mistake with regard to a 21. note. It turned
out that there was in the box 103/. 10a. This man, be-
sides being Mr. Jackson's steward, held • farm under him,
and was many years in linear of rent. In the box were
some poor-rate receipts, containing the landlord's parts,
which should have been in his possession if the rent bad been
paid. The four tenants against whom ejectmenta had been
served are named Denis Peters, Darby Peters, Michael KlM-
nedy, and Michael Cumming. The two first of these, it is
stated, owed two and a half years' rent ; and Kennedy and
Cumming four yea& rent. They are in custody on mere
suspicion. Last evening a son of Madden's was also arrested.
The cause of this, it is stated, was that on Thursday after-
noon he was seen in • public-house drinking with one of the
Peters, and the conversation of both of them was of so re-
markable a character as to attract notice, and to elicit the
observation from some one that they talked es if some dee-
perste crime bad been committed. Save what is mentioned
above, no other evidence against the prisoners has transpired.
The unfortunate gentleman who has been murdered was of
• most amiable and inoffensive character. He was always
prompt to act kindly by the country tieople—so much so
that it le stated that if • tenant of his came to him and
said that he had purchased • cow, but was at a loss for
some place to put her, he would say at none, "turn her in
there on my ground ; you shall not be at any loss." The
steward, who is in custody, was under personal obligations
to him. His funeral takes place to-morrow.

ESSAYS AND RIVIEWIL—IItia ease will oome before
the Judicial Committee of Privy Council on Friday. 19th
inst. It will be remembered that on the hearing of the case
Dr. Lushiegtou condemned Dr. Rowland Williams, the
author of the article " Bunsen's Biblical Researches," to one
year's suspension from his benefice, and the Rev. H. Bris-
to w.. Wilson, author of the article entitled "The National
Church," to the mmeamount of punishment, upon which
both the rev. gentlemen mire notice of appeal. Its
stood that both Dr. Williams and Mr. Wilson intend to
dispense with profeesiomil assistance before the Judicial
Committee, and that each will argue his own cam, that of
Dr. Williams being taken Lint
