THE CHARGES AGAINST " COLONEL " The Morning Post is given to understand that the Crown in in possession of evidence of a character to lead to the belief that the recent attempt to destroy the House of D.,tention at Clerkenwell was instigated by " Burke, one of the prisoners now in Warwick Gaol await• ing his trial for treason-felony. The probability, there• fore, is, that the Crown will include him in any indict. ment which may be framed against the Desmonds, Barrett. Ann Justice, and others now in custody for wilful murder arising out of the catastrophe. In connection with this subject it may also be added that Mullany, the last ari. prover, has been admitted as a witness for the Crown 10 consequence of a document having been traced to hirj containing references to a certain very high personagef and which document it is not considered desirable shoule, be given in evidence at the trial, either against Maas* • himself or any of ,the other prieonem jakigge citvi‘ hion:slotioied.  ten days Chancery. :cepted it, ttle  1857, he  years, and ing equity >st to Sir  Conservaa Liberal Appeal by have been f startling wait until vhen there )hancellor.  ig enough, e Chancelthere ; the 3tbury was )osition at £12,000 or  turn of the  ,m he shall  rohn Rolt. uck in the competent f sufficient  not care to na is about  man is preare for the raphic sys'estminster the course  enhe nomi)pointment at the Lord , one of the 'he learned arge of his take them.
