threat, to exasperated an Aid-de-Camp of the

nel Maekelcan did nut embezzle, nor convert to his

is further of opinion, that lieutenant-Colonel Mac-

the payment of them. With regard to the second
charge, the Court it of opinion, that Lieutenant-
Colonel Mackelcan is guilty of the lint 'girt there-

arose from a desire to save the public purse. As to
the third charge, the. Court is of opinion, t:•at he

On Monday afternoon, three men belonging to

of the boots alongside, and made off with all the
sad they could crowd.—Several shots having been
tired to bring them to, without etlei t, two boats
were min ail and sent in pursuit; but being now
far a-head, and the wind blowing fresh from the
westward, they easily eluded the vigilance of their
pursuer*. The Snake sailed on Tuesday morning,

On &miller night last, the house of Dr. MAC•

of some silver plate, and several other articles of
Value. The thieves have not yet been discovered ;
but on Monday afternoon, while in search of them,
the police-officers of Leith encountered a man of
*ay suspicions appearance, who, on being accosted
by one of them, drew a pistol from his pocket,
Which he presented at the officer. It fortunately
did not go off, although the villain drew the trigger.
Taking advantage of this circumstance, the
officer struck the piste% out of his hand with a
stick, but, iu endeavouring to seize him, he stow-
tied and fell, by which means the ruffian got off.—
Tile pistol was loaded with ball, nod is now in the
