Died on Thursday in last week, at Underly Hall, the residence of Alexander Nowell, Esq., the celebrated horse Muley. lie was one of the finest steeds that has paced the turf since the days of the famous Bucephalus, and has left a progeny worthy of his blood and high reputation.  Yesterday morning information was given to Mr. Inspector Tedman, of the D division, at the station-house, Marylebone-lane, of the following robbery. Between the hOurs of nine o'clock on Saturday night and seven o'clock on Sunday morning, the shop of Mr. Banfield, tailor, No. 6, Dorset-street, Manchester-square, was robbed of coats and waistcoats of the value of 301 , as also of a portmanteau and a musical snuff-box, both belonging to the convict Greenacre, who was executed on the 2d instant for the murder of Hannah Brown. On the trunk were his initials "J. G.," written in ink by hims.lf. It appears that some time ago he occupied apartments at Mr. Banfield's house, and went away leaving those things behind him. The robbery is supposed to have been committed by a man who took lodgings on Saturday night, but on the following morning absconded. He is about forty years of age, five feet six inches high, fair complexion, and was dressed in a shabby camlet cloak. On Sunday evening as an elderly gentleman, named Herbert, who resides in Gower-street, Bedford-square, was passing near the top of Monmouth-street, he was rudely run against by two fellows apparently intoxicated. In a few minutes afterwards he missed his watch (a valuable gold one) and appendages, with which the thieves got safe off. On Sunday evenings this neighbourhood is almost ►mpassable, so numerous nre the thieves, principally boys, that infest it, in spite of the utmost vigilance of the pt►iice.  Letters have been received in the city from Liverpool, which mention that i„telligence bad been received there from the Cape of Good Hope, stating his Majesty's brig-ofwar Dolphin had captured two slavers. The following are the particulars as described in the advices :—The Dolphin had arrived at the Cape of Good Hope about the date of the 20th of January from England, with nearly 20,0001. on Government account, bringing also along with her the crew of a Brazilian slaver. She had, it appears, captured two essels of this description : first, the schooner Androhina, with 254 slaves on board, evidently Brazilian, though sailing under Portuguese colours, having procured a Portuguese passport at Angola, and escorted by a brig from that place to the coast of Brazil, and cleared out for Mozambique, Ambrig, and Monte Video. Both these vessels, it was ascertained, had sailed from Rio Janeiro a few month previous, under Brazilian colours, and were carrying the slaves across to the market, protected by the semblance of a Portuguese flag. The other vessel was recognised to be the Brazilian corvette Inco;::prthensible, French built, of 560 tons, and pierced for 18 guns, with 700 slaves on board, from Mozambique to Angola and Lisbon, also proceeding on the voyage under Portuguese passport and colours, but. found to be Brazilian, by papers which were discovered on board. She was despatched under guard to Sierra Leone for adjudication. The scene on board this vessel, it is said, was truly heartrending. There were about 100 slaves lying almost lifeless on the deck, with the remaining 600 in the most abject misery, being in a state of nudity, and so closely packed together, that they lay as one lifeless mass, in consequence of the heat they had experienced in rounding the Cape. It was with great exertion that they were uttimatcly brought round ; and, after having been properly attended to, were placed in a situation to exercise themselves.
