A trial for Crim. Con. came on in the Court of
Exchequer, Dublin, ou Tueftlay latt. The plain.
tiff is a farmer of the name of P—, refitting in the
vicinity of Loran ; the defendant, Mr. C—, jun.
of Palmeritown. The criminal intercionfe of the
titter with the wife of the former, was to cleat ly
proved, the Jury gave a verdid of toool. damages.
Two highwaymen were (hot in attempting to
rob a coact tall Tuefelay evening, on Galloping•
Green.

The Commidion ofOyer and Terminer ended on
Thurfday at Dublin, and the following city jwilb-
ners received fentenceof death: D. Neile, J Note, P.
Neile, and Thos. Neile (father, mother, and Inns)
one of the latter for robbing the mail, the others
for uttering pod bills taken out of it, havingforged
names. 'The county prifoners who received ten.
knee of deeds were, Peter Width and John Kear-
ney, for highway tobbery ; and Daniel Kelly, for'
ateep Itealiog.
A trial exhibiting fingular cruelty and moral
depravity, recently took place in Dui:Jim—lt was
on an aaion brought by Mrs. Murphy, late of
Patrick-greet, again! her hulband James Murphy,
for cruelly affaulting, imprifoning, and ftarving,
with intent to kill and murder her. The particu.
rat detail of the evidence in fupport of the prole-
coition might gratify that fpecies of eager cunofity
which makes no &Rim...lion in its objeAs, but would
(bock that humane fenfibility which, as we refpea,
we will (pare. In fuldlance, it appeared that for 1
two years the profecutrii endured every inniaiml 1
of barbarous tyranny, (hot t of death ; was beaten, I
reviled, liarveil! During this period the was preg-
nant, and delivered of a child—while in a date in
which nature irnprifes Co much upon the female
fez, and iu which tender affettion (stolid pecu-
liarly govern the conduit of her hufband, the ex-
perienced no alleviation of her fufferings, and the
poor infant asftually died for want of the neceffary
refinance denied to its wretched mother. On the
part of the traverfer, feveral witneffes (wore in di-
re& contradittion of the above evidence—After
which, Judge Jonnsrox fummed up the evidence
in a fpeech of confiderable length and ability.—
The Jury, in about forty minutes, returned a ver-
dia—Guilty ; and the prifoner wa.intlantly taken
in charge by the keeper of Kilmainham gaol.
On Monday fe'nnight. R. Wilfon was tried be-
fore the High Court of Julliciary at Edinburgh,
for the wilful murder of Janet his wife. It appear-
ed that on the night of the 27th of January lan,
about ten o'clock, the cry of murder was repeated-
-1 healed from the houfe where the prifoner lived.
ni, neigleturs were alarmed, went to his door,
butodid not go io. The next morning Wilfon
itbed at his next neighbour's door, and laid his
was dead. When the people came to examine
fle fame marks of violence were obferved on her
face and neck. The prifoner Lid he did not know
when his wife died. and denied there were any
tries of murder in his houfe. Two furgeons, Dr.
Farqnharfon, and Mr. Bryce, who examined the 1
body of the deceafed, gave it as their opinon, that
the died a violent death by ilrangulation. Mrs.
Wilton had been Come time very fickly : the hap-
ine& that had long fulsfilled between her and her
hatband, had lately ceafed on account of her jea-
loofies and the had confeffed to a neighbour that
Mr. Wilton had twice attempted to adminifier
pnifon to her. On behalf of the prifoner feveral
micas gave him a good charatter ; and Dr.
Kim differed from the two other medical gen-
tlemen as to the caufe of the woman's death. l'he
Jury were flint up Irian eleven at night till two the
next day, when the majority of them acquitted the
prifoner.
Casemate's logos sr.—Friday night, an inqueß
was held at the Fox, in Wardour-dreet, on the
body of Durant Lovell, otherwile George ?slang°,
who was found dead on Sunday rimming lail, at
the corner of Noers-fireet and Wardour Ilreet.—
It appeared in evidence. that the deceafed, who
was a man ofcultnir; had procured his livelihood
for many years in the Rivets of Londi n, as an
itinerant tinker. He went into the Crown, in
Oxford-ftreet. on Friday morning, where he was
ferved with a baron of tea and a buttered roll.—
He rationed in the evening to the fame houfe, and
bad a pint of beer; about eleven o'clock the fame
evening, be was difcovered by the watchmen in
Wardner-dreet, fitting under a door-way, where
Andrew Pollock, a watchman, finding hi n, in.
fitted on his leaving that place, and forcibly drag.
ged him to the oppotite fide of the keit. whit h is
St. Ann's ',atilt, where lie left him. The watch-
men belonging to St. Ann's, finding the %%leeched
being lying on a door-way on their beat, forced
him back to the tide of the flrect in St. James's
parills, where lie retrained, till Pollock returning
to cry the hour, allied him .. what lie did there a
fetynd time, after he had driven him away ?" when
the deceafed exclaimed—" 0 Goo, I am dying!"
0. Then (replied the watchman), you !hall not die
here: you mull do that lin:mu-here she." The
deceared aniweted. " I am not able to liir—l am
a il!itre man !"—" I care not," laid the watch
man, and then either dragged or carried him a
feennJ time to the oppolite tide of the ',rect. At
liven o'clock he was found dead on the St.
Jame•'s ti.'e.
The Jury returned the following verdi& :—" It
is not proved in evidence that the deceafed did
aBually die othemite than a natural den h ; hut
it is ve,y clearly proved, that Andrew l'..llock,
the "watchman on sluts. in IVardour.tireet, on Sun-
day bight lA, bat been highly negligent of his
due!, by omitting to take that care of the deccaied
which be was bound to do. and by Inch omidion,
flue CAW Jars is clearly sot opinion, the deceafed
Mk his life."
