THE MURDER NEAR TUE MENAI BRIDGE.--OR
Wednesday last John Pritchard was finally examined, at
Bangor, en the cheep of the wilful murder of John Row-
lands, at the works of the Britannia-bridge. Additional
evidence was adduced, which warranted the committal of
the prisoner on the charge of the murder. He arrived here
on Wednesday, heavily ironed and handcuffed. The evi-
dence was the same as that adduced at the inquest;
witk the addition of testimony which proved that
some clothes, which were stated to belong to Mr.
Mare, supposed to have been stolen from his stores,
bad been thrown over the Menai-bridge by the
prisoner ; clothes also had been found in the hidden ; and
some nails, wrapped in a piece of cotton print, buried in a
garden behind the prisoner's house, and a piece of leather
had been found in the same garden, all supposed to belong
to Mr. Mare. Mr. G. Johnston, of Carnarvon, stated that he
was passing the stage in the yacht Mer►inia, on the night of
the murder, between 9 and 10 o'clock, when he heard two
men quarrelling ; one was dressed in dark clothes, the ether
in fustian. The prisoner bad on dark clothes on the night
ot the murder.
