which The Jury returned the following Ver.;
diet

" We find and preient, that the deceased John
Segerson•,, Esq. late of Fortwaliam, in said county,
Was, on Thursday, the 17th day of September
instant, feloniously and wilfully murdered by
°Janie' Pennington and John Pennington, both of,
Farrantoreen, in the parish, barony, and countyl
aforesaid, farmers, with ft gun loaden with powder?
and, slugS, value ,about five shillings, at FarraW.'
toreen aforesaid ' • and we find, that the said Pew-
ningtons fled after -the commission of the said
murder

" We have to add to the aliove, a Circumstance
whichtin its nature, as not having evetithe seen
glance of cause, may be considered; if possible;
of a more brutal and srcge character :—As the
Coroner and Doctor tusteed were on their re-
turn to town in a carriage, a. shot was fired going
among sonic trees inside the road, near Kiltallow,
which; providentally, had no *other effect than
that of ,a ball, as it is supposed, passing in at
one side and out at the opposite side of the car-
"
riage.

By =one of the letters brought by the Lisbon
we'laii are informed? that the
stromps lately ar-
rived there from England have proceeded by forced,
marches to join the army of General I-TILL, which
must now be very forinidabie, as all the native
troops that could be spared have also been march-
ed. to reinforce it. The same Letter says, "ewe
learn by this day's post from Madrid, that Lord
WELLINGTON having expressed a wish to raise a
loan of 1,000,000 of dollars, to be repaid at the
expiration of 12 months with interest, the prin-
eipal inhabitants of Madi•:d waited upon his Lord=
ship, offering; 2,000,000 dollars during the conti-
nuance of the -war, Without any interest, which
was accepted, on the condition of its bearing in-
terest,-and his Lordship insisting that it should be
repaid'at the above-mentioned period."
A private letter from Madrid, dated tire 3d of
September, says—" Recruiting for the, Spanish
corps 'of Don CARLOS and Don JULIAN goes on
briskly. They are raising a Militia for the city,
horse and foot likewise, and taxes are•imposed for
their, maintenance."

-The garrison of Madrid consists of the sth, 43d,
45th, 52d, 74th, 83d, SSth, the Scotch Brigade
and Ross, some Portuguese, and likewise some
Spanish troops, all- under the command of that
gallant Officer the Baron ALTEN.
4ariagniticent-Moriument-, in honour of Lord
NELSON, haS been erected in one of the squares of
Greenwich Hospital. The statue of the lamented
Hero is in a recumbent position, and surrounded
by emblematic figures of the. United Countries
mourning his loss,. and a great number of rich
corresponding ornaments and devices. -
John Osborn, a marine, of the Olympia cutter,
has been committed to Plymouth gaol by Thomas
,Mantell, Esq. Mayor; charged by a Coroner's In-
quest, with ,the wilful murder of Henry Gordon,
of -that 'cutter. It 'appears that the prisoner was
the sentinel on duty, and the deceased wishing to
go on shore contrary to an express order, he chal-
lenged him, but the deceased still continuing to
proceed, the prisoner fired, and the ball passing
through the body of Gordon, killed him on the
spot.
A robbery was last week committed in Dublin,
attended with very singular circumhances: About
midnight a prostitute Was accosted- by a person
somewhat intoxicated, who took her to a house
of ill fame, where she contrived to pick bis pocket
of a small envelope, containing 19 notes' of 1001.
each. One of these she entrusted the next day to.
a Mr. Case*, a mealman, to procure change, and
two more to a Mr.i:Lynch, with whom 'she had
formerly lived.. The latter, however, disclosed
the. transaction to the banking-house whose name
appeared to the notef ; and it was agreed to de-
tain the woman when she came, and take mea-
sures to recover the remainder of the notes. But
in the mean time Casey and one M'Lin, a next
door neighbour, contriveal, by threatening the
woman, to get possession of the entire sum, and •
then turned her out of doors, telling' her to get
away as fast as she could rfor her life'woidd. be
in danger if she were taken. For a few hours she
was inclined to comply with their suggestions,
but afterwards gave herself up, and disclosed all
the facts. Casey and M‘Liii are both in custody;
tile: the most extraordinary circumstance in the
whole case is, that no person has yet come for-
ward to claim the property.
The murderer of J. Dean, at Milford, was foe-
tunately secured about five o'clock on .Tuesday
morning, while lying under a hedge near the.vil7
Lige of Templeton, about two miles from Nar-
certh. He was conveyed before the Rev. Me.
Morse for examination ; at first he denied.having
any kilbwlege of the transaction, but afterwards
confessed the fact, and acknoWledged, that., he
knocked the boydown with his fists, , then, heat
him severely with the oar, struck his head against.,
the gimwhale of the boat with great vipienc-e; and,.
finished the hoerid hi:sine:SS:by cutting his throat
and throwing the body overboard ; lid denied
robbing him; The unhappy wretch declared that
he did not wish to live, and cared lint how soon
his life was forfeited. He is a tall stout man,.
about the age of 60, saidhis name was John Bruce,
and is belieVed to be an American. On examining
the boat, the one pound note, a shilling, and a
ninepenny piece, were found in the bottom of het,
whichlt• is supposed, in the hurry to escape, he
dropped ; and had got under the boat's keelson.
Since his confinement he has confessed to the
master of a collier with whom" he lately sailed,
that he robbed him of 25/. and his mate of his
cloaths which he has now on WM, also the knife
with which he cut the boy's-throat. SuSpicions
are entertained from some expressions dropped by
him, that he has bc'en concerned in. other atro- ,
cions actions; Au inquest was held on Tuesday,.

Murder against the prisoner, he Was committed to
Haverfordwest gaol.
