IVPER'S.

Jame: Davis alias Thorne:, John Barth alias Long
Ned, Henry Hadley,. and Thomas Marsh, who were
apprehended on #ednesday last, from private informa-
tion, as persons who bad been concerned in robbing
Lord Cowper's steward, were yesterday again examined
before the, Rev. Mr. Lloyd, in Hertford Jail. On this
occasion, IfisliAilleS Accosted, and distinctly Swore to
the personof Davis,*one of the•individuals who burst
into her husband's room on the night of the Bth•ult.
She said there was a light in the room, and as she lay
in bed she distinctly saw the prisoner. She also recol-
lected Barris alias Long Ned, of whom she was almost
certain, but still she would not undertake to swear
without a shade of doubt. If she heard his voice, she
said.. she thought she might be more able to form a
judgment. The prisoner was subsequently asked what
be had to say why he should not be committed for trial?
but he only repeated his assurances of innocence. Mrs.
Haines, who heard his answer, was more strongly con-
firmed in her opinion, as she thought she clearly recog-
nized the tones of his voice.

Mr. Haines, jun. is still so much indisposed as to ten-
der it impossible fur him to appear before the Magis-
trates; but he says he perfectly remembers the persons
of the men, and thinks, when he sees them, he shall be
able distinctly to swear to them.
Under.all the circumstances, the worthy Magistrate
said be had no hesitation in committing Davis and Har-
ris for trial, and they were committed accordingly.—
They appeared much alarmed at this determination.
Mr. Lloyd then said that he had no evidence before
him affecting Hadley and Marsh, beyond the fact of
their having been found in the company of the other
prisoners, and this, he felt, would not justify him
in holding them longer in confinement. He should
therefore discharge them, reserving to himself the power
of again taking them up if new evidence was obtained.
Dudfield was then examined, and a female witness
was produced, who came upon him rather by surprise,
and gave.such evidence against him as, connected with the
other testimony already received, at once fixed him as an
accessary before the robbery. This girl, whose name it
will be politio to suppress for the present, lived in Dud-
field's house, and had sufficient opportunity of witness..
ing the transactions which were daily occurring in that
sink of iniquity. She remembers, before the robbery
of Mr. Haines's house, hearing Dudfield say to his wife,
that he expected a large haul of notes; the thing was
regularly planned, and the men had been down to see
the place; they had inspected the premises, and all
was right for action when the fit moment arrived ; .on'
the vei y morning of the robbery, which she describes.
as a rainy morning (as it was), three men came to
Dudfield's house in a great hurry, and knocked him,
tug ; they were sheen into his loom, where be was in
. bed with his Nile ; there was then a low conversation,
in which the men were heard to say, " they had done
the trick." After this the witness distinctly heard
the rattle of money, as if sovereigns were counting, and
the whole party finally went into old Mrs. Dudfield'
room, where they remained for some time, and then,
went away. In the course of the morning, Dudfield
sent two persons off to Cambridge, and the men who
had been there on the morning of the robbery subset,
quently came to the house, and the witness heard them
say they had only got 4001. and asked where Dudfield,
was with the rest? This was the general outline of the
girl's evidence:--The prisoner, like Harris and. Davis,
was fully committed for trial.

A gold ring was fotrnd7;;;;Vtome rubbish at Carlisle
Castle, a few days Niace, with the .4onstuon oh! Freuch inscription,
" Honor 11,:c." it, .ultiluity cannot be very great ; but fancy has
already node it tlit property of the unfortunate NARY of Scotland.

SECONDARY'S OFFICE, JULY 6. .•

MOLLAND, ADMISISTItATRIX OF M'DOVOAL, O. OGLF.
A Sheriff's Jury were assembled in this case to assess
damages, the defendant having allowed judgment to
gO by default.
Mr.Por.Locx stated, that the plaintiff, Mrs. Molland,
as administratrix to Mr. Richard 111,llougal, brought
this action for the recovery of £5OO, the amount of a
promissory note given by Colonel Ogle to Mr. M,Dou-
gal for value received, and also for £lB4, the amount
of an I. 0. U. given by the colonel two years subse-
quently. The Learned Counsel produced the necessary
documents, and called

John Molland, the nephew of the deceased, who was
brother to the plaintiff. The witness stated, that Mr.
M'Dougal died in March, 1819, after which the pro-
missory note and the I. 0. U. were found amongst his
papers. They were Colonel Ogle's hand-writing.
Cross-examined.—Mr. Millougal was agent to Mrs. Ogie's estate
in the County of Armagh, but was discharged about two years be-
fore his death—believed that Colonel Ogle, out of compassion
for Mr. M4Dougal's poverty, gave him a weekly allowance for sup-
port. The Colonel allowed him £2O a•year for the giving up of
some land, independently of a guinea a week, which was paid for
some months. This guinea a week the witness believed was given
in consideration of the money due by Colonel Ogle.
Ite-exannined.—Saw Colonel Ogle shortly before the Colonel was
arrested for the debt. The Colonel then admitted that he owed Mr.
M'Dougal X3OO, and said that he would pay it if be got time.
Cromeuminect—Colonel Ogle, witness believed, proposed to
refer the matter to arbitration, and witness might have acquiesced
in that mode of arrangement—bad sent to the Colonel long before
an account of what he thought was due.
Mr. Anommos assured the Juty that Colonel Ogle
was one of the most honourable men in the country, and
would be, upon all occasions, most willing to pay every
farthing he owed. But he was, at the satne time, one,
of the most rash men as to what he put his hand to, as
must be palpable to them. In fact, the 1. 0. U. ought
to be considered as a complete settlement of what was,
between him and Mr. M'l)ougal, for it was given two
years after the note was given.
After same conversation between the Counsel, Mr. Anot.vava
said to Mr. Pollock, " Will you take .0300 r—Mr. Pomace said,
be would take a verdict for .8350, and drop the business.
" 'This was recommended by the tiscosoawr, and a verdict was
given accordingly.
