mother. I lived with Min Flynn before I mean Wet.'
Flynn said I look his potatoes. That was set the new I
left him. I know Bill Dwyer. I know Jams sad
remember robbing him. This teak pieeebelliee Ttr. Beale
was tired at. I was never at die obasdat el a rat. Me.
Baillie never injured me, although I said world &Wide&
I would not murder any man I was asked to murder ; bet I
would for Daly, because he was a relation to me. I would
have murdered any man Daly asked me. (Sensation.)
Mr. RoUestone : Would you have murdered me id they
asked you ?
Wiener: By Gor, I would, sir, (Great sensation.)
To the Court : I pointed out Boland's as the bow where
I was brought into in Nenagh. I gave information a weak
after I was taken. I saw the reward up, but wee the. ert,-
listed and going away.
To Mr. Rolleston : I was arrested In Limerick On lily
way to my regiment. There was a depot in Guernsey, and I
was going there. I would have shot Mr. Baillie if I get
to take me out of the country. I was sober the night
speak of. All the others were drunk. I took the pledge and
&oak afterwards. A priest gave me leave. I attended as..
regular. Ide not know whether it would be a greater aims
te commit a murder or break a pledge. I think murder
would be worst, but Ido not know. (Sensation.) Connor
had a fatherin•law in Dabarrow. I told this story to Capt.
Pollock. I told it the day after I wee taken. I cannot tel
the day of the month. I believe it was the Sth of December.
I turret had arms of my own. If I bad areas I would have
brought them, and used them if the first shot missed. (Great
semation.)
Margaret Canvan : I know Hayes's public-home in
Neasgr I am a *avant there. I remember hearing of
Mr. Nall* ,being shot. I know Nicholas Garrigan, and
remember seeing him in Hayes's on the Thurs-
day after. There were, I think, paeans along with him.
I attended them, and brought them whiskey, and eoffee,
and bread. This was between five and six o'clock in the
evening. I did not know any of the men who were with
Garrigan.
The approver Garrigan wu here brought into court, and
the witness stated that he was the person that she alluded to
in her evidence.
Constable Harrison: I was stationed at Ballymackey in
November lest. I know where the prisoner Rowan lived,
and where William Carty lived. I saw Rowan is Nenagh
after Mr. &tithe was fired at, but I had no warrant against
him. I afterwards saw him on the townland of Clack. on
the night of the 21st December. That is over four Clacks,
from his residence. I met him on the road. There was
another person with him. Rowan had a short doable-bar-
relled gun. This was at night ; but they saw me. I was
not in uniforn. I knew Rvwsn, and thought to watch
him to where he was going. I was disguised u a countryman.
I sew him again on the 26th of December, on the mail
coach road. It wsarufter nightfall. He went into the
house of a man named Thomas Kelly, of Cbuihree. There
were five or six with him. I went to that house afterwards
with a party of police. I saw light in the house, mid I
rapped at the door. When I got in, after a little delay, I
found 12 or 14 persons playing cards--at least, there wen
cards on the table. Rowan was not sitting there. I silted
Kelly if there was any one else in the house. He said net;
but I looked under the table, and found Rowan with a pair
of loaded pistols, capped, in his pocket (pistols produced.)
Consable O'Keefe : I know the prisoner Daly. I
arrested him on the morning of the 22nd November, at his
own house. Before that I frequently searched for him after
Mr. Baillie was fired at, but could not find him.
Dr. O'Neill Quinn, who attended Mr. Baillie, deposed that
he had two wounds on the right side of the bask; he saw
him in about half an hour after he was fired at. One bullet
entered behind his ear, and came out in hie mouth, and ano•
then before his ear, and shattered his jaw, also coming out
at his mouth. These injuries were dangerous to life ; for
three weeks he had very little hopes of him. Mr. BMWs in
still in a delicate state, so that he could not come here.
John Comerford : I am in Mr. Bernie's employment, and
act as his bailiff. I know John Daly and Edmond Connor.
They were tenants on land for which Mr. Baillie was agent.
At the time he was shot Daly owed 601. 135., three years'
rent. It is still due.
The case for the prosecution here closed, and
' Mr. Rollestone addressed the fury for the prisoners. He
contended that the corroborative testimony in support of the
evidence of the approver was net sufficient to warrant them
in convicting either of the men on trial. The learned gentle.
man, in a most eloquent speech, then went through the
evidence for the prosecution, to show its insufficiency, as it
referred to each of the prisoners, and in the course of
his observations he complained that the approver's evidence,
and other important testimony in the case, was not reduced
to informations, to enable his clients to prove its utter false-
hood, as it was moot probable they would have been able
to do.
Bridget Carroll, the owner of the public-house in Nenagh
spoken of by Carrigan, the approver, swore that it was not
open upon the day he mentioned, in consequence of her
brother's death.
The defence closed, and the Solicitor-General replied on
behalf of the crown.
The Chief Justice then charged the jury, who retired, and
M about ten minutes returned with a verdict convicting
Daly and acquitting Rowan.
They were removed from the bar, Rowan being retained
in custody. It is very probable that he will be again ar-
raigned with the parties yet untried for the conspiracy.
ARMED ASSAULT AND Ronnzay.—Thomas Britt, a
young man about thirty years of age, was indicted for
having, on the 16th of April last, at Ball skill, in this
county, assaulted one Martin Healy, and robbed him of two
pistols, and 891. in money. There was a second count laying
the property in Mr. George Stain.
Martin Healy deposed to the assault and robbery, stating
that it took place about two miles from Roecrea, at ten
o'clock in the morning of the day in question. He posi-
tively identified the prisoner, who, he said, kept guard
over him and his master, Mr. Stain, who was on the car
with him, while others of the party robbed them.
Mr. Stain having corroborated this testimony,
Mr. O'Mahony addressed the jury for the prisoners.
The Chief Baron then summed up the evidence, and they
found a verdict of conviction.
The Chief Justice sentenced him to transportation fir ten

years.
MURDER 01, MR. Hier...tom—The two ear-boys charged
with this murder will be tried on Monday, to which day the
court adjourned at 6 o'clock.
Monona OF MR. Roe.—Wehave good authority for stating
that Lonergan, who was convicted on Wednesday last for the
murder of Mr. William Roe, of Rockwell, in this county, has
I made a full confession of his guilt, thereby satisfactorily
bearing out the verdict of the jury in perhaps one of the
most intricate cases of circumstantial evidence on record. He
has not as yet implicated any one in the crime; on the con-
tr►ry, he states that he was alone. It ia, however, generally
supposed that this statement is false, and is made for the
purpose of screening his accomplices, as there is strong reason
for believing that there was more than one person engaged
in this diabolical outrage.

• for some time to come to be expended
the isiag to allow 60,0001. so soon as the
data treunry will permit. European culti-
vation continues to advance : turnips are now to be
seen aroand Lahore. I had a letter from Colonel
Lawrence a fortnight since, stating that tools and
implements of the best construction, with Sikh work-
men, were either to be sent down to Bombay to
receive instruction in the arts, or Bombay tradesmen
well instructed to be sent to Lahore. _

The Bunoor Expedition is threading its way
through the passes ; it has hitherto met with no ob-
struetion, save those physical obstacles present, and
it is not supposed it will meet with ary. The Sikh
soldiers have behaved themselves admirably.: their
discipline has utenished our officers, considenag the
recency of their organisation. They are a fine high
spirited, martial people, hardy, bold, brave, and
temperate.
Small pox hu broken out in Scinde, and is com-

rival of the steamer, and from the scarcity of produce offering, and
ermine of shippers, the rates of homeward freightage have gradu-
ally retrained to oar prevent quotations.

of trade with the interior are resumed.
Grey shirting are still saleable. In some *tames, however,
