HANOYER.SQUAEE.—A very numerous audience
last night attended the Annual Concert of that
respectable musical veteran Mr. BELLAMY. The
vocal and instrumental pieces, as might be ex.
petted, were well selected by so experienced a
musician. The first act commenced with the In-
troduction and Grand Chorus, " 7'e Deum lauda-
mus," and ended with the Grand Chorus "Great
is Jehovah, and highly to be praised," and the trio
and chorus, " and with songs I will celebrate the
Most High." The second act commence& with
the grand overture to Lodoiska, and concluded
with the grand chorus to HAYDN's Creation,
" Achieved is the glorious work." The vocal
Performers in the above, and all the intermediate
pieces, were, Miss HALL, Miss littowN, Miss
VENES,CAMPORESE, SAPIR, BELLAMY, KNYVETT,
VAUGHAN, HAWES, ELLIOTT, J .B. SALE, Mrs.
SALMON, Miss STEPHENS, &C. &C. We wish we
had room to notice their respective merits, but
we may justly observe that they all received much
applause. The glee of " Tho Red-Cross Knights"
was loudly called for again, but BELLAMY came
forward and stated, that having undertaken that
the Concert should conclude by eleven o'clock,
be hoped the audience would excuse the repe-
tition.—They acquiesced, but 46 Home, sweet
home," from Clafi, which followed, was so well
sung by Miss STEPHENS, that an encore could
not be dispensed with, and was given with uni-
versal applause.

REVENUE OFFICERS FORCIBLY CARRIED .OFF
TO MERICA.—On Thursday last Mr. Tubor, Police Magis-
trate, accompanied by Mr. Farrell, Chief Petite Officer, pro-
' ceeded to Dunteary; (in pursuance of an order from Mr. (Ire-
gory, Under Secretary of State, to take measures for preventing
a vessel, called the Irilliant, of Dublin, from putting out to sea,
in consequence of the want of necessaryaccommodationfor the
passenfters.on board during their voyage to Quebec. Mr. Tinier
and Arr.-Farrell found die vessel riding at anchor in Kingstown
litty,.t6ady'to put to sea.. „lier Written was but 03 tons, and
she hall on board 150 passengers—being the number of 109
persons more than the allowance • per ton !—The Magistrate
and 11r. Farrell- waited on board all day for the Captain ;
and as he did, not appear at night, they left two 'Re-
venue Officers on board in charge of the vessel, and returned
to town. During the night the Captain came on board, anti
knowing his case to be desperate, he determined on a desperate
remedy, and actually put to sea with the officers onboard. As '
soon as the circumstances was discovered, two revenue cruisers
were dispatched after him, but as yetno account has been re-
ceived.--(Dublin Paper.)

MURDER OF Mits. PoNATTy.--Yesterday
Benjamin Dogett, the man who was vent from India on his
confessing himself the murderer of Mrs. I)onatty, was brought
up to Bow-street, anti underwent a public examination before
TIIOMAt Hnr.Ls, Esq. one of the Magistrates of that Office.
It will be recollected that on his first examination, he de-
clared his confession to have been entirely, false, that he made
it for the purpose only of being sent back to England. Tinder
all these circumstances of the case he was however committed
to the House of correction, Coldbath-fields, where he has
been confined for four weeks past, and during that period
it was. thought necessary, for the ends of public justice, ,to
preclude the visitation of any of his friends, and also of any
communication between him and the other prisoners. In the
interval, Mr. Half has been indefatigable in his exertions
to bring this mysterious affair to a conclusion; and Ruth-
yen one of the' principal officers, has also been actively en-
gaged in making numerous inquiries in all parts of the town to
ascertain the truth of various parts of the atatement given by
the prisoner, in contradiction of his confession, and which in
general have been found correct; while, on the other hand,
the places at which he stated himself to have been seen subse-
quent to the commission of the murder it is prom] he was not
at. Mr. HALLS closely questioned the prisoner again on seve-
ral points; but nothing particular was elicited ; and, in order
to Imo time for some further inquiry to be made, he was re-
manded until Tuesday next,
