at a friend's house for the purpose of passing the
evening with a dance. During the time the lovers
and their friends were thus en:oying themselves, a
repast was being prepared at the house of Merle,
the father of the intended bride. Ten o'clock was
the hour fixed for sitting down to supper. Bourbon,
however, had not arrived, although he had been in-
vited. He had, in fact, said to some person that if he
came it should not be for nothing. In order to
overcome his unpleasant feelings a friend named
Morange was sent again to ask him to come, but could
get no answer at the house, and returned to the party,
thinking that Bourbon must have retired to bed. He
then found that the repast was served upon a large
bin or trough in the place of a table. This vas
placed near the fireplace in a large room, which com-
municated by a secret door with an adjacent barn,
The guests, seven in number, sat down. Four sat on
the opposite side near the stove—namely, the intended
bride and her affianced husband, her father and
brother. Opposite them, a little to the right, was
the door which communicated with the barn ; on the
other side of the table, and immediately opposite the
lovers, sat Morange, another friend named Barriere,
and the musician, having their backs turned towards
the door. The party had scarcely taken their seats
when it opened. They thought that Bourbon was
coming, and turned their faces that way ; no one was
to be seen, but the next moment the report of a gun
was heard, and the right side of poor Lzborie's head
received nearly the whole charge of the weapon. He
fell forward upon the table, bathing the cloth with
his blood.

Two shots out of the whole charge only appeared
to have escaped him ; one of these struck Marguerite
Merle, and the other Morange, the friend who had
gone out to invite the assassin to the feast. The latter,
although only slightly wounded, received such a
shock that he fell upon the floor. Taking advantage
of the scene of confusion which followed his act, the
assassin fled; but he had been seen and recognised by
two witnesses in his flight.
A third witness had seen the prisoner enter his
house the instant after the murderous act had been
committed.

Poor Laborie, it was thought, must have sunk
under the effects of the wound, had he not had a very
fine-constitution, which enabled him to recover the
shock. As it is, he has lost his right eye, and has re-
ceived other injuries, which he will suffer from as
long as he lives.

The Jury found a verdict of guilty against the
prisoner, but without premeditation; and the Court
sentenced him to hard labour for life.

WRECK OF HER MAJESTY'S CUTTER SIYAN.--DUL-
ring the gale of wind which blew so tremendously
on Wednesday night, this beautiful little craft, about
30 tons burden, was unfortunately driven ashore on a
shoal of rocks running out from a small creek, a little
to the westward of Clovelly. The vessel was riding
at anchor, apparently in perfect safety, awaiting the
return of the tide, when suddenly the weather grew
tempestuous, and before the anchor could be weighed
and the canvas set she was thrown among the breakers
and became a total wreck. The crew, with consider-
able difficulty, succeeded in saving their lives.—

in her, she could readily have reached England. This
is the vessel about which we have seen in the papers
of the week a long story of shameful conduct on the
part of the Sea Bird brig, for not giving her assist

to have been abandoned.

SUICIDE of a MILITARY OFFICER.
On Saturday an inquest was held by Mr. Thomas
Wakley on the body of Captain William Brew (for-
merly of the Queen's Bays), Captain and Adjutant
of the Royal 'West Middlesex Militia, and Adjutant
of the Uxbridge Volunteer Infantry Corps. The
following witnesses were examined :
Timothy Carter, Sergeant in the Royal West Mid-
dlesex Militia, knew the deceased. Lived with him
for the last seventeen years. He resided at Hilling-
don End, Uxbridge. Saw him last alive on Wednes -
day, at his own house. He then appeared in good..
health. He was in the dining-room. Noticed no-
thing particular in his conduct or manner. On
Thursday afternoon, about three o'clock, found him
at his own house in bed, quite dead. Noticed nothing
particular in the room at the time. Saw on the table
a parcel addressed to " Lieutenant Charles Brew."
Deceased was lying in bed as if asleep. Immediately
fetched Mr. Stilwell, a surgeon, and sent a messenger
off to London for Mr. Charles Brew, deceased's eon.
Mr. Stilwell instantly attended, but could do notting
for the deceased, the body being quite cold.
By the Coacesint—Knew the deceased Well during
the seventeen years I lived with him, and had of late
observed that he laboured under a deal of worry of
mind, in consequence of the conspiracy against him.
CORONER—Don't talk of a conspiracy unless you
can prove its existence. Did you observe of late any
alteration in his manner and mind, showing that he
fancied there was a conspiracy against him
'Witness--I did. He appeared rather 'low
ot late.
Never heard him threaten that he would destroy him-
self. No one lived in the house telt deceased and me.
Mr. James Stilwell, surgeon—Had known the de-
ceased about ten or twelve years, and had been in the
habit of meeting him repeatedly. I last saw him
alive on Tuesday evening. He then appeared to be
low spirited, and oppressed in mind. I understood
he was in some difficulties, and asked him how mat-
ters were going on. He said he was afraid matters
would be very serious with him, His manner did not
appear to me different than usual. On Thursday
afternoon was seat fin. to the deceased's residence, and
on reaching it, thund the deceased lying in bed,
parontly perfectly quiet and tranquil. He was lying
perfectly straight in the bed, with his arms folded
over his chest. Noticed no lividity, although the colour of
the skin indicated that death had taken place. The
hands were also cold and stiff. Made if past mortert
namination of the body about forty-eight hour; after
death. Found the body to be in a rapid sate
composition. On that (Friday) of de-
ingrfing had found
a bottle marked " laudanum" bet7een the bed and the
mattress, It was still ab,aut two-thirds filled with laudanum.
CORONER--Are you aware of any papers having
been left by the deceased, tending to prove that he had
taken poison ? Mr. Stilwell—Yes, I have seen some
letters which were enclosed in an envelope, amongst
VOA Is one addressed to you, Sir, as Coroner. They
are now in the possession of Mr. Charles Brew. I
attended deceased about six months ago, when he had
nearly destroyed himself by opium pills. Tie then told
me he had made the pills up himself from opium.
CORONER—Do you think from what you know, and
from all that you have seen of the deceased, that he
was insane ? Mr. Stilwell•—l never saw anything
insane in him, but he was certainly very excited; the
excitement not arising from insanity, but from natural
causes. , He complained of persons whom ha said had
ill-uSed him.
CORONER—DO you know of your own knowledge
that such a persecution existed, or did it exist only in
his fincy ? Mr. Stilwell—l believe the deceased had
very good grounds for stating what he did to me.
Deceased was still retaining his comm and in the militia.
Richard Williamson, a Sergeant-Major in the Royal
West Middlesex Militia, had known deceased about
thirty-two years. For the last six months I did net
think he was in his right state of mind, from his
behaviour to persons with whom he mixed. I be-
lieved he had a cause for doing so, in consequence of a
quarrel he had had with some persons in the town ;
and whenever their names were mentioned he became
a complete madman.
The CORONER—That is a strong impression of in-
sanity, certainly.
Mr. Charles Brew deposed—l am Lieutenant in
the Royal 'West Middlesex Militia, and am the
youngest son of the deceased. I reside in London,
and was made acquainted with his death about ten
minutes past :ix o'clock on the evening of Thursday
last. I came down to Uxbridge almost immediately,
having first read some documents in deceased's hand-
writing, which were handed to me by my nephew,
Mr. William Brew. Amongst those documents was
one addressed " To Wakley, Esq., or the Coro-
ner, Uxbridge."
The witness here handed a letter to the Coroner,
who immediately handed it to a person present, and
requested him to read it aloud to the Jury, which he
did. Just as he had commenced,
The CORONER inquired whether the letter con-
tained accusations against individuals not present, and
being answered in the affirmative, said the room must
then be cleared of all persons not on the Jury.
All persons were then excluded, and kept out for
nearly an hour.
The letter read by the Foreman of the Jury was
as follows :
" Sir,—lt is under the severest depression of mind
I take leave to submit the enclosed to your perusal,
that the cause may be known which has led to my
melancholy and unfortunate fate. The fact; Sir, is,
that for the last two years I have been the victim of
the most.cruel conspiracy, who have unceasingly re-
sorted to every possible unjust means to effect my
ruin, and have at last succeeded. The names of my
enemies who have formed the conspiracy are
. Oh, how I ever had to regret
allowing myself to be drawn into an acquaintance
and intercourse with that family !—people, I de-
clare before my God, I never injured either by
word or thought ; and yet they have shared
in what has led to my unfortunate fate. With
respect to the anonymous letter to the War-office,
Mr. -- knows that Mr. --- suggested and urged
him to allow him (Mr. --) to write to his brother,
Mr. —, who is a clerk in the War-office, respect-
ing a small account I owed to the estate oiMr. —'s
father, but from the respect, he said, he had for me,
he would not be led into such a transaction. It ap-
pears, however, that Mr. -- did so without his
sanction. I have, therefore, reasonable grounds for
accusing the of conjointly being the authors of
the said letter, which was couched in the most glar-
ing colours, and has led to my ruin, and the enclosed
printed extract from the United Service Gazette, will
also show the part the other gentlemen of the con-
spiracy have taken against me.
" I bave, Sir, served my country 50 years, with
unremitted zeal and horour, and been an _Adjutant 43
years ; and yet, from the unmerited and unavoidable
causes stated in the enclosed letters, which have led
to my being the loser of about 6021., and thereby
occasioned a deficit in say public accounts, I have
been removed from the service without the opportu •
nity of affording a full explanation to the War-office.
Being thus suddenly thrown upon the wide world
without resources, and my mind being too nervous
and sensitive to bear me up against so cruel and un-
merited a reverse, I have been driven to this last fatal
act to end my miseries, humbly hoping, through the
merits of my blessed Saviour, I shall meet with the
forgiveness of Almighty God, who is ever more gra.
ciously inclined to show mercy to man than his fel-
low-man.
" Concluding with a sincere forgiveness to all my
enemies, I subscribe myself,
