has very much.abated, owing to the rigid precau-
tionary measures that have very properly been
taken on the part of the Governor and the Board

on the neutral ground, have bad some men at-
tacked, but not violently, and are now doing well.
Captain D'Arville, of that regiment, is the only
Officer that has fallen a victim to the disease be

MenDER, IN KING-STREET, ST. GEORGE'S IN'
rn EAST.—At. an Inquest held before J. W.
UNWIN, Esq. on the body of Barney Shiels, a
watchman, the facts of the case appeared to be as
follow :--Last .Thursday night, about 11 o'clock,
a dispute arose in King-street, between an Irish-
man and .a watchman, named Jervis, who inutia-
diately•sprung his rattle. The alarm brought toge-
ther several watchmen and about 60 lrishmen,who
shortly after provided themselves with bludgeons ;
the watchmen attempted to take some •of the most
violent into custody, which produced a battle.—
' Nolan stated,that he sawone of the Irishmen strike
the deceased with a bludgeon, and heard him after-
wards mention his name, but he could not recollect
it, anti should not know the man again. John Carl
saw a person strike the deceased ov bile he was lying
in • the kennel and crying out for mercy :
should not know the person agaiii. Carl was af-
ter Wards with the deceased at the watch-house,
and heard him say that the man in his shirt-
sleeves was William Harney, and that be was
the man who had bntehered him : witness was
confident that the person who struck the deceas-
ed was not William Harney. ,George Pitman saw
several Irishmen, who have been since taken
into custody, near the deceased- during the
affray, but did not see any of them strike him ;
and he heard the deceased before he was re,
moved to the watch-house say, that the man in
the shirt-sleeves was the person who had struck
him. Two surgeons attended the Inquest, anti
gave an .account of the situation of the de,-
ceased prior to aris death, and expressed their
belief, that the injuries he had received on his
head ware the cause of his death. The Coroner
said, the declarations of the deceased were not
evidence, unless be considered himself in dying
circumstances ,; and then it would' be desirable
that they should be supported by some collateral
proof; but there was a want of identity in the
case which it might be hoped the eXertions of the
police would remedy, and the perpetrator be
certained, and brought to justice.—Verdict,
Jul Murder against some Person or persoks un-
krzulan. _ •
