The Daring Garrotte Robbery near Derby,

At the county police-court, Derby, on Satur-
day, the two men, Callaghan and Clarke, were
brought up on remand before Dr. Peach, Mr, Cox,
M.P., and other magistrates, charged with garrotting
and robbing Mr. Walter Cox (brother to Mr. Cox,
M.P.) on the 16th ult.
Particulars of the robbery and the capture of the
accused have already been given. Some important
additional evidence was given on Saturday.
Mary Ann Dunn—l am a single woman. Have
lived in Derby five or six months. I have known
the prisoner Clarke between five and six months. I
have lived with him since I came to Derby at a
lodging-house in Walker-lane. Clarke never worked
at anything to my knowledge. I have known the
prisoner Callaghan as well as I can recollect for a
month. I first met him at Croft's lodging-house,
when he came with Mary Ann Joyce. He lodged
at Croft's. Clarke and Callaghan kept company
together while they were lodging at Croft's. I re-
collect them coming in on Monday night, the 15th
of October, about ten o'clock, while I was frying
fish. They both came in, and Callaghan said that
I and Joyce must put our things on together. They
did not say, in the house what for. I hesitated a
moment or two, and Clarke commenced cursing me.
I and Joyce then put on our clothes and went out
with them. I followed Joyce to Steele's public-
house. Ularke and Callaghan stood outside. Both
of them said we were to look sharp and go down
Walker-lane. They said, " We have been and got
some money, and we must look sharp and get out
of the road, or we shall be taken." When we were
going down Walker-lane I told Clarke I was ill
and could not walk a long way, and he gave me a
sovereign and told me to go back again. I turned
a little way back, and then he came and began to
swear at me and made me turn again. We went
on the Ashbourn-road. We called at the Brick-
makers' Arms. I and the other woman stood
outside while Clarke and Callaghan went in.
They said they were going in for some " Maas"
meaning spirits. When they came out they said
that they had got some, and we went along the
Ashbourn-road. I think Clarke's coat was a kind '
of grey. The one he has on now is the same. He

wore a cap. I think Callaghan had the same coat
he wears now, but not the same waistcoat. I am
almost sure he wore a cap at the time, but cannot
swear the cap produced is Callaghan's. Only Cal-
laghan wore whiskers of which he had more than at
present. Just before we got to the first toll-gate
they commenced tearing up some letters and cards,
and throwing the pieces on to the hedge and ground.
It was dark at the time. They said they took the
letters off the gentleman they had the money from.
Before we got to the first village on the road, one
of them, I think Clarke, struck a match, and with
the light they were looking at a watch. I could
not tell whether it was gold or silver, but I think
the latter. They said they wished they had a key
to wind it up and tell the time. Before they struck
the light on the other side of the toll-gate they
divided the notes. Clarke pulled them out of his
pocket. I asked him where they got the notes and
money from, and they said they had been on the
Nottingham-road. Both made this answer. They
showed them to us and said they were £5 notes. I
saw four notes. They said that on the Nottingham-
road they met a gentleman, and Clarke walked on
a bit first, and Callaghan was behind. Clarke said
he turned back, and the gentleman was smoking a
cigar. Clarke said he went up to the gentleman
and put his arm round his throat, and Callaghan
shouted " Hold him, and we will get the
stuff off him." Clarke said he put his
arm round his throat and kept punching
him while Callaghan robbed him. I asked
Clarke what he did with the man. He said they
kicked him and punched him in the ribs, and
that he tumbled into the hedge bottom. I said a
policeman would be after them. He said he was not
frightened, as the man would be two or three hours
before he would get over it. They did not say who
the gentleman was, or whether they knew him or
not. They said they had got four £5 notes and a
silver watch, and some sovereigns besides, from the
gentleman.

Mary Ann Joyce, the other woman, also made a
similar statement ; and after the examination of

other witnesses, in consequence of the mass of evi-
evidence to be taken, the prisoners were again re-

manded.

DEATH OF MPS. CAMERON.—The sympathy of
the country will be painfully moved by the announcement
of the death of Mrs. Cameron, the mother of Consul Came-
ron. Her health has been undermined, and she has at last
sunk under the suspense and misery she so long endured
in consequence of the cruel imprisonment and torture of
her son.

HEAVY GERMAN EMIGRATION ExPEcTED.—The
New York herald has a letter from Berlin, iu which
the writer states that there is no diminution of desire
on the part of the Germans to emigrate to
America, and predicts that there will be no falling
off in the number arriving on the shores of the
United States for a long time. It has been thought
that now Gormanies wero to aris3 in Chili, on river Platte,
in Brazil, and in Australia, but the authorities direc:,ing
these movements have given it up in despair, in view of
the all-absorbing attractions which America impresses on
the imagination and interest of the Germans. The Bremen
Company have ordered two now steamers, to meet the in-
creasing emigration, and both lines will soon reduce the
fares. Other lines are l'eported as about to W established.
