Pierre Adolphus Augustine Sebire was indicted for
having feloniously discharged a loaded pistol at Emma
Hillyer, at Plymouth, on the 12th of December last, with
intent to kill and murder her. There were other counts
in the indictment varying the charge.
Mr. H. T. Cole was counsel for the prosecution ; Mr.
Cox defended the prisoner.
This was a very extraordinary case, It appeared that
the prisoner, who was a fine, sailor-looking young man,
sk -native, pf Jersey, the owner of several vessels trad-
*-- from Jersey to Plymouth, one of which he cm:
manded himself, called the Medora. In November last
4, happened to be at Plymouth with his vessel, and
became acquainted with Mrs. Hillyer, the mother of the
girl he was charged with attempting to murder. Hear-
ing that she had a pretty daughter living with her uncle
and aunt at Devonport, he asked the mother to intro-
duce him

that he there bought a brace of pistols for 31., and gun-
powder, caps, and balls. He then took the girl to seethe
lodgings. She sat down on a sofa, but perceiving that
the prisoner was endeavouring to take the key from the
outside of the door she thought he meant to lock the door
and take liberties with her, and became alarmed and
made her escape and went home. The prisoner came
there also, and in the evening they all went, as had been
before arranged, to the prisoner's lodgings, the girl and
her mother seeping on a sofa-bed in the parlour. The
next day they went out for a walk, and returned in the
evening to tea. The prisoner seemed rather annoyed at
their being out without him, but nothing particular
passed. While tea was preparing the prisoner asked
Mrs. Hillyer to fetch him a pint of beer, and while she
was absent he said, "Emma, will you take a walk ?"
She said she should not go out that night ; he said,
"Wont you ?" She replied, "No." He then said, "I
am not ashamed to look at you ;" to which she replied,
`,`, Nu: am I ashamed to look at you." He then said,

A STRANGE SIGHT.—At Banff, in the north of Scot-
land, on the afternoon of Saturday last, there was seen
coming in from the sea a huge pile of water, of a circu-
lar form, progressing rapidly towards the shore with a,
gyratory motion. When first observed, it was appa-
rently about three miles off. As it approached it was
more distinctly seen, and was apparently about one hun-
dred yards in height and about thirty feet in diameter.
It moved with great rapidity, and reached the shore in
less than five minutes from the time at which it was first
observed. When it came among the breakers, it caught
a wave in the act of breaking, and dispersed its waters
into a thousand forms. The whirlwind, however, con-
tinued its course, playing strange pranks on the shore.

The prosecutrix is a woman 38 years of age, who had
had four illegitimate children in Yarmouth by different
fathers, and would appear to have formed a similar con-
nection with the prisoner, who was at the time a fellow-
servant of her's, the result of which was that she again
became enceinte. As soon as she became aware of it,
she acquainted him with her situation, demanding
money, which seemed to perplex him. However, they
met by appointment on the Denes, a large sandy district
just outside the town, on the evening of the 14th of Oc-
tober last, for the purpose of discussing the matter. As
they were sitting down so engaged near the Northum-
berland Arms Inn, the prisoner all of a sudden jumped
up, and, applying a plaster to the face of his unsuspect-
ing paramour, attempted to hold her down. She, how-
ever, managed to get on her legs, and, tearing off the
plaster from her face, fled from him. He pursued her,
and, overtaking her, renewed the attempt to apply the
plaster, and made a:ferocious attack on her, tho violence
of which may be conceived when the surgeon, who
was called in by those who, being alarmed by her
cries, discovered her lying insensible, and on her face
near the inn, stated that her front teeth were knocked
in, and her whole face swollen to a level with her nose,
while on her throat were pieces of pitch. Being taken
to the hospital the prosecutrix was soon ascertained to
be free from vital injury; but she was an inmate of that
establishment for a fortnight before she could resume he

DEC. 6.

A considerable increase iu the number of women, most
of them of a respectable kind, has taken place in Mel-
bourne within the last few weeks. There are also more
up at the diggings. The concealed tents for unlawful
purposes at the diggings—grog selling, gambling, &e._
are reduced in number. The shops in Melbourne are
rapidly improving, and have recently received most
brightening additions in the shape of jewellery ; but
burglaries and robberies in the open streets are more
than usually daring.
