were placed at the bar before Mr. Corrie, charged with

stealing a trunk containing 521. in gold and silver, and
several articles of wearing apparel, the money and goods
of M. Leopold Joseph Ronsalle, hair-dresser, of No. 1,
Upper Yardley-street, Clerkenwell, and Pierre Bervill
carpenter, of No. 6, Upper Rupert-street, Haymarket,
was also charged with receiving and being concerned in
the same robbery.
Sergeant Sandars of the detective force acted as inter-
preter.
It appeared from the evidence, which was gone into at
great length, that on Wednesday the prosecutor was
fetched from his house to drink, and in his absence the
box containing the money was taken by a man who had
gone to the room and said he had been sent there to
stop until the prosecutor came back. The prisoner
Charon who when taken into custody inculpated himself,
also charged the other prisoners.
The prisoners were remanded until Wednesday.

THE BRAZILS.

PORTSMOUTH, JAN. 28.

Her Majesty's store-ship Tyne, Master-Commander
Peter Wellington, arrived at this port this day, having
made a rapid passage from Rio of 38 days only. The
Tyne has been the -round of the West African squadron
under Rear-Admiral Bruce, as well as that under Rear-
Admiral Henderson, on the Brazil station, which she
supplied with provisions, &c. She has brought a mail
and a small quantity of treasure, which Messrs. Cham-
bers will lodge in the Bank of England. She has
brought as passengers :—Mrs. Henderson, wife of
Rear-Admiral Henderson ; and Mrs. Hunt, wife of Mr.
Lennon Hunt, Consul-General at Monte Video, Miss
Truscott, and Master Hunt. The Tyne parted com-
pany with Admiral Henderson, cruising off Cape Frio,
on the 20th of December. She spoke in the South
Atlantic, in lat. 17.43 S., long. 34.38 W., the Bremen
brig Emma, all well, out 50 days, with emigrants bound
for San Francisco ; also in the South Atlantic, on the
12th of January, in lat. 25.33 N., long. 34.39 W., the
bark Euxine of Glasgow ; and on Monday, the 24th inst.
the ship Jumna, with loss of jibboom ; wind then S.,
blowing very hard.
Captain Wellington has brought a file of Brazilian
papers.
The Crescent receiving-ship was at Rio. The Express,
6, Commander Fead, sailed from Rio on the 13th of
Dec. for Bahia. The Rifleman, 8, screw steam-vessel,
Lieut. Dalton, sailed on a cruise on the 14th of Dec.
The Bonetta brigantine, 8, Lieutenant Wake, was
cruising off St. Catherine's. The Vixen, 6, paddle
steam-sloop, Commander Barnard, and the Locust, 4,
paddle-vessel, Lieut. Day, were in the River Plate, in
attendance upon Captain Sir Chas. Hotham,
the British Ambassador to the Republic of Uruguay.
The slave trade on the coast of Brazil was quite extin-
guished. It will be remembered that an exposure was
made some short time agolof a number of English boys hav-
ing been ill-treated in the Brazilian service ; the Tyne has
recovered 43 of those boys from the Brazilian navy,
three of whom have died from yellow fever on
the passage. Their names are—George Taylor, aged
14, on the 10th inst.; Daniel Foster, aged 14, on the
14th inst. ; and John Boardman, aged 16, also on the
14th inst. An inquiry had 'been instituted on board
her Majesty's ship Crescent, respecting the ill-treatment
of these boys, of the result of which we are not apprised,
but sufficient was made known to induce the Brazilian
authorities to deliver them up. 37 more boys are to
follow in her Majesty's steam-vessel Rifleman, which
may be shortly expected. Mr. Day, acting boatswain of
her Majesty's ship Tortoise, has come home on promo-
tion, in the Tyne; as also several naval invalids and a
quantity of old stores.
Exchange at Rio, 274 to 28.

DUNDEE TRADE WITH AUSTRALIA.—We are glad to
learn that this trade is increasing, much beyond the
most sanguine expectations ; and if returns made to the
exporters of Dundee manufactures to Australia continue
at all equal to those lately made, much good may be ex-
pected, not only to our merchants, spinners, and ship-
owners, but to our manufacturing population generally.
The fine new barque El Dorado was towed down the
river with a full cargo of goods and passengers, for Port
Philip—being the first vessel direct from this port to
Australia ; and we are happy to learn that other eight
vessels are already on the berth, or advertised to load
here for Melbourne and Pert Philip,--.Dundee Adver-
tiser.

THE KILBEGGAN MUBDER.—The late atrocious murder
in Westmeath continues involved in mystery, there
being, it would now appear, no reason to suppose that
it arose from circumstances of an agragian character.
No arrests have yet been made. A local journal has
the following remarks :—" Most singular, the inmates of
the house never made any fight, resistance, or alarm for
nearly 20 minutes after the atrocious deed was com-
mitted. After perpetrating the dreadful deed, the assas-
sins walked out, leaving the gun lying by the side of
their weltering victim ; but one of them presently re-
turned for and carried off the gun, without the slightest
opposition. The inmates were so stricken and horrified
that they did not even dare to look what direction the
parties took in their retreat, and the men were not dis-
guised in the least, but they were believed to be strang-
ers. Farrell's house is not more than 100 yards off the
road, which is a public one, in the highway between
Streamstown and Kilbeggan, and there are several
farmsteads and cottages close at hand. No possible mo-
tive can be assigned for the committal of this savage
deed, Farrell having been an inoffensive, industrious,
well-disposed man, who stood well with all who knew
him."

The United States Mail Steamer Humboldt arrived at
Cowes yesterday, on her way to Havre. Her English
mails and passengers were landed at Southampton yes-
terday afternoon. She left New York on the 15th inst.
The news by this arrival affords no addition to that
brought by the Asia, which left New York on the 14th
instant.

The Mail Steamer Formosa left Sydney on the 9th,
Melbourne on the 16th, and Adelaide on the 19th of
November last, and arrived at Singapore in time for her
mails to be sent home with the last Overland China and
India mail. The telegraphic summary, via Trieste, of
the India and China news by this mail was received in
London on the 13th inst. If the Australian mail had
contained any political news of very great importance,
a summary of it might have been included in the Trieste
message, and thus we should have had
.news from
Sydney in 65 days, from Melbourne in 58 days, and
from Adelaide in 55 days.
The business in the General Post-office is getting of
immense importance. It appears that the last East
India mail, which arrived at St. Martin's-le-Grand in
the afternoon, could not be touched that day, and the
correspondence for the provinces was not ibrwarded
until the morning mails were dispatched the following
day. Either a larger building for the business of the
General Post-office will shortly be required, or a full
tall' of officials must be employed the whole of the day
and night.
SOUTH AUSTRALIAN GOLD.—Some specimens from
the Echunga Diggings have turned out 1 carat 1 gr.
better than standard, with 8 dwts. silver per pound.
The brokers have expressed their opinion very highly as
to its purity, and the several sizes of the pieces are
larger than any that has been received from Melbourne
or Sydney, leading to the supposition that the South
Australian gold fields will prove to be very rich.
ROYAL JENNERIAN AND LONDON VACCINE INSTITU-
TION. —Yesterday the annual general meeting of the
governors of this institution was held at the Freemasons'
Tavern ; Mr. Ashurst in the chair. From the report it
seemed that the numbers vaccinated during the year
were 7,186 ; that India had made large demands on the
institution ; that very many surgeons also, who had not
been able to keep up a supply of vaccine virus, have
been indebted, in time of need, to this establishment.
The amount of funds received during the past year was
stated at 3271. ; the expenditure at 334/. ss. 10d. ; the
liabilities at 2401. The report concluded with an appeal
for more general public support ; and the chairman, in
o
urging the claims of the institution, called attention to
the great results arising out of small outlays, expended
in the manner here proposed, and to the evidence of the
necessity of the institution, as the means keepingSturges
