A. notice having appeared in some of yesterday's jour-
nals that no drawing room would be held on the day
appointed for the celebration of her Majesty's birthday,
we have authority to state that this announcement was
made in error, and that her Majesty will hold a drawing
room on the 29th May, in celebration of that event.

THE MURDER OF Miss lIINDs.—The trial of James
Murphy, one of the men charged with the murder of Miss
Hinds, was brought to a conclusion on Thursday, at
the Cavan Special Commission. Witnesses were pro-
duced for the prisoner to co,ltrovert the evidence of the
approver, and to show that he (the approver) had invited
them to join him in trying to gain the reward, and that
he proposed to swear against two other men instead of
those whom he ultimately fixed on. The jury, after a
consultation of two hours, returned a verdict of guilty.
The court then adjourned for the trial of the other
prisoners.

CORONER'S INQUESTS.— On—Saturday, the coroner held the
following inquests :—On the body of John Moore, aged 40,
who died in the Royal Infirmary, under the following
circumstances. It appeared that the deceased had been in
the infirmary as a patient, and on Thursday night he
suddenly got out of bed and ran to the window, through
which he shoved himself. A young man, a patient in the
same ward, seized and held him for some time, and then
police officers 408 and 607 got a ladder and put it up to the
window, and 408, with great courage, went up and caught
the deceased, who resisted and struggled violently with the
constable, and both fell to the ground. The officer was
severely, but fortunately not fatally, injured, but the
deceased died from the effects of the injuries he sustained
by the fall. The jury returned a verdict in accordance with
the facts. The coroner spoke in highly complimentary
terms of the courage, humanity, and coolness of officer 408,
and trusted his superior officer would take notice of his
gallant conduct. The jury also expressed a strong opinion
in his favour, and no doubt he will receive the reward he so
justly merits.—On the body of Francis Dornan, a labourer,
who died fi ore lockjaw, caused by an accident whilst work..
ing at a ship in one of the docks. Verdict accordingly.--
On the body of a child, named Benjamin Barnes, aged six
years, who died in consequence of injuries received by his
clothes catching fire. VirdicWaccidental death.
