The evidence adduced was that of Mr. Colke, of the George Inn, 13eckenhian, who deposed to the prisoner being at his house on the tiight hut one of the murder, and to his havittg joined in conversation with a person named Seoval. In the course of their conversation the prisoner seemrd to possess a complete local knowledge of the surrounding country.

A Waterfod Paper of Saturday se'nnight, in speak.. ing 4,f the execution of the six criminals for the murder of Cr.: hue Mr: Alarm, states—.“ We have heard of very unpleasant indications of popular resentment, both at Kilkenny and Galmoy. It was a melancholy coincidence that very near the temporary gallows, and within sigh:, Was a similar construction for a like purpose, in a neighbouring part of the Queen's County." A most melancholy occurrence happened at Newstead Park on Sunday morning last. W. bitehead, shepherd to T. Wildman, Esq. of Newstead Abbey, being somewhat indisposed, wished to take a dose of Epsom salts, of which there were several single ounces wrapped up in papers, and deposited in a drawer in the workshop of his son, who is a shoe-maker, and resides in the same house, as a part of his father's family; and. who, for the use of his trade, had one single onnce of oxalic acid deposited in the same drawer, and which was unfortunately taken from the drawer by mistake, instead of salts, and dissolved by water in a tea-cup, and swallowed by the unfortunate William Whitehead, whO,. immediately on taking the fatal drug, exclaimed ,g I have taken the wrong stuff; I am a dead man!" He expired in half an hour after taking the poisonous draught. An Inquest was held on the body on Monday, before THOMAS Warorrr, Gent. Coroner, when what is before stated fully appeared in evidence, and further, that the whole happened casually, by mistake, and without the least intent or design of injury; and to that effect the Jury returned a verdict. The deceased has left a widow and nine, children to lament the untimely loss-of an igdusttious and affectionate husband and father.  Monday evening, a maw of colour widertook to run eight mil. s in 53 'nitwits, on the Buekland-road, near Dov:r, which he ix:fomiod without much fatigue, in less than 50 nil .
