round, and loolkigg at. the Magistrates, said. 44 You
work wore* ,coney than for justice." Mr. Dent'
called him back to retract his words, but he refused,
saying that he had said it, and they might make the
worst of it. The defendant refused to take off his
hat, and it was taken off for him.
Mr. BROUGHAM took three otiossoyhich were
over-ruled by his Lordship; when Mr. Biougham
said, that being the case, he acknowledged that the
words ought not to have been used; is for, (to use
his Learned Friend's own expression) they got no-
thing but what the King gave them, and he gave
them nothing."--(A laugh).
As Mr. BROUGHAM had acknowledged his client's
fault, the Learned Judge directed the Jury to find
the defendant guilty; but also ordered that it be en-
tered upon the books, 14 no further proceedings to be
entered into."

LIMERICK ASSIZES, JULY 25.
S. Sullivan was tried for the murder of Ellen Hanly.

, .
Ellen Walsh recollects being in. Kilrush about
twelve months ago; she got her passage in a-boat
from Mr. Scanlan ; there were in the boat at the time,
J. SCaulan, S. Sullivan (the prisoner), J. Mitchell, P.
Keys, J. Mangin, and Mrs. Scanlan. Mrs.-Scanlan"
had two gold rings on her finger ; she noticed her as
having two projecting teeth in the uppee gums, tae
at each-side; they arrived at Caragafoil before day
in the morning, and stopped at Mrs. Walsh's house;
the whole party remained there till -after breakfast,
of which all partook, with the exception of Mitchell,
who was intoxicated, and rumbled about-the house.
Shortly after breakfast, witness saw prisoner force a
ringoff Mrs. Scanlan's finger, and put it on his own,
the remaining ring being carved, and which she saw
on Mrs. Scanlan's finger the following day. Shortly,
after breakfast M. Scanlan and the prisoner went to
Ballylangford to get change of a note. Mrs. Scanlan
stopped in the house along with witness dining their
absence, and shewed witness her clothes--CHere the
trunk was-produced and identified, after which the
olothes it contained were also recognized as those
shewn to witness by' Mrs. Scanlan, and a small rope,
the appearance of which excited-horror throughout
the Court ; also a mantle, belonging to the deceased,
which was identified by witness.l—Witness said, Mrs.
Scanlan was about 15 years of age, and handsome.—
Scanlan and prisoner delayed two hours, and did not
get the note changed ; believes prisoner to have been
a servant to Scanlan ; Scanlan desired witness tostop
in the house till the following day, and in the mean.,
time they would get rid of Mrs:Scanlan; at this re-
mark the young girl was not within hearing; witness
would not stop, and Scanlan, the prisoner, and
.Mrs.
Scanlan went off in the boat, witness soliciting for
admission; witness was landed three miles from Glin,
after which Mr. and Mrs. Scanlan and the prisoner
sailed off. The following day, witness saw the pri-
soner coming down, from his mother's hintse,'• which
was near to her own; went into the prisoner's hoise,
and saw the trunk, which she recognized to be the
one which was in the boat. Witness went to Mr.
Scanlan's lodging, where she saw the prisoner, and
asked him if he had brought Mrs. Scanlan with
him ? To which he (the pri*ner) replied, that
" she was shipped off with the Captain of a ship."—
Witness heard Mr. Scanlan and prisoner disputing;
they., were tipsy ; prisoner asked Mr. Scanlan for
money ; Mr. Scanlan said he would give the prisoner
nothing; upon which the prisoner replied. " Mr.
John, I have as good a right to the money as you •
have." In about five or six weeks after, heard of a*
dead body being found ; saw the body at Money-
point, County Clare-side, near Kilrnsh ; the body
had been taken up as it was interred; saw it taken;
it was a horrid spectacle ; the Knight of Glin and-
Major Odell accompanied witness•to where thebody '
was friterfed ; it had a putrid appearance ; the leg
and arm were broken, and could not, from its state,
discover of what sex. The Knight of Olin asked
witness whether she had any peculiar marks *hereby
she would know the body ? witness said, the deceased,
if it were she, had a projecting tooth at each side
of her jaws ; recognized the deceased by looking into
her Mouth and seeing the two sockets, or holes in the
gums, in which the teeth were. The deceased told,
witness, in the boat, that she had eloped with Mr.
Scanlan, and was married to him in Dublin.
Grace Scanlan knew J. Scanlan, who was executed
for this murder. Prisoner brought clothes to witness
to buy ; they consisted of a skirt, a spencer, and
frock. (The trunk was then opened, and the clothes
recognized by the witness as those offered to her for
sale). Prisoner told witness that the clothes belonged
to a woman who went off with a Captain.
J. Conery, uncle to the deceased, kneW Ellen
Hanly ; she was his niece; was living with him since
she was six years old up to the period of her elope-
ment with Mr. Scanlan; she was then about fifteen;
left witness house on the 29th of June, 1819; whilst
be was at. Mass. Witness was never married; his
niece took £lOO in notes, and twelve guineas in gold;
since which time he never saw her; heard of her
death six weeks after. - ,
Other witnesses corroborated what had bent said.
The Knight of Glin corroborated the statement of
the projecting teeth, as described by Ellen Walt,
which she gave previous to seeing the body.
No witness appeared on the defence. -
The Jury retired for about' a quartet of as hour,
and returned a verdict—Guilty. •

who deserted her klittte before her lyittesin. She found him
living with Mrs. Shurey, who is a married woman, and ,alt CT-
ried the child there, demanding relief from him. She w.., sa
taunted by Callaghan and the prisoners, that she left her cl.Pci is
a-passion. Next day she repented, and went back for the cUd,
but was abused and maltreated. After several fruitless azt,:ars
to recover the child (in each of which she was treated to a -ilia-
kr way), she .applied to the Magistrate. The child was nem
produced, and seemed fast hastening to its dissolution. Wimessss
swore that they believed Mrs. Shurey had been delivcrtd cis
weeks ago, and that it was her child they had no doubt. lilrbers
swore positively to its being the child of the complcir.ant. in
'this state of conflicting testimony, the Magistrate saw Mrs. Shu-
rey 'affectiug to suckle the child, and he immediately ordered her
to be examined by the women, to ascertain whether .he had an
means -of so supplying the child with nourishinent—whlch as
confounded her, that she instantly har.ded the poor infant *et-
to its mother. The Magistrate regretted that he could not etiokh
such Ingham's conduct : but.hetold them, that if the child had
died, they-would have been tried for iti murder. Mrs. Shurey
was held to bail for the assault.

Yesterday morning, James Roubotham stood in tine
pillory, opposite Newgate, pursuant to his sentence,
for perjury. At twelve o'clock he was fixed in tile
machine, in.the presence of a vast concourse of spec-
tators, and he remained in it, apparently under the
greatest pain, for one hour. It appears that he gave
false evidence for a female, named Dillon, who was
charged with a robbery, to prove an alibi, but e
contradictions were so palpable that the City corn-
menced a prosecution, and he was sentenced to twelve
months' imprisonment , afterwards to stand in the
pillory, and adtiMately to be transported for seven
years beyond the seas.
Monday evening, Mr. Marriott, a commercial tra-
veller, residing in Pultenty-streets was stopped in
Berks, by two fellows, one of
whom presented a pistol to his breast, and robbed hint
of £S4 iiq notes and cash, his watch, and a box of pat-
terns of jewellery ; they then cut the harness of 114
chaise, and made off acros sthe Forest.
Wednesday se'nnight, a Gentleman of Manchester
visited Knutsford Races, and while on the Course w 4.1
robbed of his pocket-book, containing two bills. or e
of £lls;the other £25, and a in Bank of England
notes: He very soon discovered his losi, returned to
Manchester the same evening, and next morning, as
soon as the Banks were opened, gave information i f
the reishery, together with the particulars of the tw o
bills. In less than twenty minutes after he had left
the Bank of Mr. Morrstax, in. Brown-street, the Boat
from--the White Bear Inn presented the hr4er one
(£115) to bediseounted he was of course interro.
gated as to the manner in which he became possessed
of it? .when-be unhesitatingly declared 'that he had
been desiied to get- aeh for-at by a person then wait-
ing at the Inn. A Police Officer was seat for, who
accompanied hini-to the-White Bear, and the indivi-
dual described was there found, and immediately
taken into custody. He was committed for trial, ,text
ay, to Lancaster Castle. His name is W. Binds.

non, an the- County of Galway, on the evening of
Sunday se'nnight, by the upsetting of a boat in which
they were. The ear slipped,. and all making an erf

The house of D. R. Pornran, Esq. Cheney Hall,
Bucks, was consumed early on Monday morning.—
The fire originated in the laundry, where a fire was
made .the over-night, preparatory to washing. There
were two servants only in the house, the owner being
in London ; and one of them was much buret in es-
caping. The flames were so rapid, that in less than
an hour the whole was a heap of ruins, ,confined by
the walls. A range of coach-houses, stabling, iltc.
next caught fire, and were cpasumed, as well as two
small testaments, before any assistance could be had.
Two horses, locketbup in-the stables, were burnt ; and
the damage done altogether is to a great amount.
