CORN-EXMANGS, MARK-LANY.,' JAN. 13.—Our
Market continues very thinly supplied with all sorts'
of English Corn, owing to the continuance of ad-
verse winds, yet the sale of Wbeat was heavy, parti-
cularly fur all buf the finest 'qualities, for which
Monday's prices are supported ; but there is no de-
mand for any other description. We had scarcely a
sample of -Mae English Barley at Market, and prices
remain as on Monday. In Yeas) Beaus, and Oats,
there is no alteration.

The Judges came into Court At ten o'rld4dc, *heti
Joh-. Myth?, il!nrantler. Devdt,
/,:'td were indicted for the ivilfid nrirdei of Daniel
M'Cormkk, on board the ChArsman ccnvict ships is

CuntsTorttr.tt It ANSON stated the caBd to the
.7:lry, and clefaited the evidence which he teas nosy
to call. It is unnecessary for us to go into ..ay
lengthened de-tail, as the evidence was nearly similar
to that given yesterday.
Patrick Smith, a cons ict, detailed the tiretim-.
stances which attended ihe Gong on the 17th of
April: he which separated the bay
from the soldiers' apartments, had several gnn links
in it. After the tirir.c► was over, the third Mate

came down and fired among the ronvicts; there was
co firing after ;:his ; the tile.' several ;
the second Mate ..L•w tire.l into the sick h3v ; his

name is Ald:•:dze ; heard nothing more in the
exceial the wounded ; M'Ardle S.tS
brougla do v. a dead next day, as were al,:o two whers;
saw Or. Dew.ir c.trlier thin usual that morning ; !ward
him say, « You have brought this on yourselves."
Cross-ermined—Supposes the Doctor carn,, down
to dress tare wounds of the men. The prigoners made

ILO anv.ver, that he !lewd, to what Dr. Dewar said.

A.11:1; a severe examination by the COMMON SLR ,

.rEA74r, the witless persisted in his former ar,Fwcr.

There was no rail among the prisoners near him ;
he did not hear an ; thinks he must hlve heard it.
The tipper hine of the door was broken ; one slip of
the door had bullet holes in it. Never

heard or knew of the guard and crew being turned
up twice on the 12th of April, on alarm that t}e
Convict, were about to make their escape.--(TlIt
greater part of the cross:examination was ❑early the

same as yesterday.)---Heard Collins make some
communication to Dr. Dewar, in consequence of
which the rest of the convicts threatened to blanket

him. 131anketing nie:ms putting a blanka over the
head and stiEinc, the pc; son. Hoy, another convict,

v•as much hurt, and had or.e of Jiis ribs broken. It

was about some ciwarel between him and a boy.—
.

Never heard any thing zimut its heir'," occasioned by
his refusing to take an oath. s9evert,f were charged
with administering oaths. Heard the sold;crs say
that Ley were told so by Collins. Never heard that
Murphy was to be surgeon after they had got pus-
session of the ship. Heard Dr. Dewar say that Mur-
phy was one of the ringleaders:
P.e-esainine,l.—,The shots which broke the door
must have cor.:e from the hulk-head.

By Mr. Justice BEST.—A great many had their
irons all;.; he will net swear there were less than 40
who had them so. The' Officers examined them all,
and had* their ;testis mended Some were punished
for breaking their irons ; can't swear there were any
flogged for this before the 17th; several were flogged
before the 17th, but he can't say for whet ; did not
keep an account of the floggings; saw the file now
produced, in Sydney, but caa't recollect having seea
it in the ship.
-John Fagan, another convict, gave a similar evi-
dence to the last witness. Ile heard Captain Dra:ar,
say. during the ftring—" Ye precious b—rs. wl:y
don't ye come up Dr. Dewar saw sode of the
wounded, and said he would see Ito more of there
as he had seen enough. heard Mr. AlLlii.l,ae icy
that one of -tlae ship's crew had been killed in the
confusion which .had taken place.
:Cross.eseetiaed.—Was convicted in Dublin, and
'acikidged to transaartation for life. Saw no rioting
on 'board ; on the day before the firing, witness heal d
Dr.:Dewar say there was to be rioting ; knew nothhz
of oaths ; about rive days before. the 17th, witness
keetv the guard was turned up. Witness never tried
whether a man could get through the chain cable
scuttle ; saw none of the convicts breaking their irons.
Frencis Murphy, another corvicr, sailed in tile
Chapman, from the Cove of Cork. In the mornieg
of April i 7. the cons lets ;:t re anarered to get Clear
wine ; several hall their irons broken. Went to bed
about seven o'clock that evetang; there was no noise
at the time be went to bed. Heard a kind of run-
ning, as if perrons running on deck, and then the
firing corameaced neat the hatchway. I:eard Bax-
ter ease 4. Come up, ye d— convicted villain:, we
-ere ready for you now." While the firing was gaitag
on, Lieutenant Bustard said, 44 fire away, fire away."
Heard Captain Drake say, " ye d--d convicted
villains, we'll be below deck immediately, and
among you and scatter you. The firing might la:t
better than hafra,l lame. Heard a cry for mercy i ►
less than flee minutes. Many cried out in this v. ay
repeatedly. The chain cable was secured en :he
hrtchway. heard Duncan M'l.e:ta say, "co: Coo
, Areetairre's sale, bring me some drink, as I am
bleeding to death." Witness was ham:cc:Zed.
Cross-examined—Has been in Monaghan, Dealt-
patrick, and Dundalk jails. Dr. Dewar ;al him,
that Collins said witness W:l3 to be surgeon e;ter
Dewar was murdered. Never con:essed that he was
to be so, aad never confessed that the ship was to be
taken.' Never said it was the intention to murder the
Captain and crew, and that was Goo's truth. (there
tlle worth of the witness were ordered to be taken
down. He evidently contradicted himself in several
instances.) Crawley was put in irons, but witness
dces not know far what. K,lvw John Iloy, hut does
mot know he was blanketed. Saw six or seven Fail of
leans beaten nn the Wax of April. Saw one or the
i.conyicts punished next day for having a file in his
birth: Heard Captain Dtehe use the very words he
I has mentioned, as he w.ts at the bulk-head at the
time. Did not hear him say, " soldiers waist, as we
will go below and try to cadet th;m." The firing, at
all events, ce ised soon after. Can't say what he wes
band-cuffed for.
se-examined—When witness was flogged, Captain
Drake. said, 'ye d—d villain, we'll flog you at artery
opportunity, and Fang yen at the yard-arm when ye
come to New South %Vales." Doctor Dewar repeated
the same words. -
Peter Allan, a convict, (a man of colour) went to
bed at eight in the evening in question. He he.'rcl a
Corporal Cooke tell Captain Drake that there %vete
men at the hatchway, and immediately order:, -aere
given to fire down the hatchways. Witness was
wounded during the firing, and lost all recollectien
till midnight. M'Cotmick was killed that nie:ia—
Next morning he was ordered he Drake, in presence
of the prisoners, to prepare for death, after s.-!rich a
pistol was presented to ins breast, and he was watai
who were the tinglea2as? Ile mule Bo conlevtion,
