LUIGI BURANELLI.  Three cartridges and some percussion caps were found upon the assassin. In answer to inquiries at a late hour last night the wretched man was described to be in a very precarious state, with but little hope of rtcovery, though still retaining his sensibility in a remarkable degree. He positively refuses to receive spiritual consolation from a Roman Catholic priest, though professing that faith, but to the Protestant chaplain of the Hospital, as well as to Mr. Vigurs, he has expressed his great sorrow fer the deed he has committed.  - Baranclli is a widower, and has one daughter—a child of three years old, living at Pz,nsiturst, in Kent. He He is himself only 31 years of age. It has been ascertained by inquiry at his lodgings in Newman-street that he was engaged writing until a very late hour on Saturday Light. He has suffered much from illness of late, but is a good-looking man, with a pensive cast of countenance, and wears a handsome moustache. In conversation with Mrs. Williamson lately, in reference to some remark made by her, Buranelii said, " Are you afraid that I am a murderer ?" Lamtierf, is a remarkably fine man, of nearly 6 feet 3 inches high, and of very muscular frame. Had the assassin not surprised him asleep his attack would in all probability have proved a failure. Like the assassin, Lambert wore a moustache, and had a foreign cast of countenance. •  Information of the dreadful occurrence has been forwarded to Mr. Wakley, and an inquest will be empanelled at the earliest possible moment.  SINGULAR APPREHENSION OP ALLEGED MURDERER&  LIVERPOOL, Jan. s.—This forenoon, three men, named respectively Jas. Coughlin, J. Toopar, and Martin Toopar (the two latter cousins), were brought before the police magistrate, charged with the murder of Patrick Hector, aged 22 years, at a place called. Carduff, in Tipperary. A man named James Corrigan, a cooper, residing it Chisenhalcstreet, Liverpool, was also brought up, charged with being an accessory after the fact. The murder, it appears, was committed two or three weeks ago, and warrants were issued by the Tipperary magistrates for the apprehension of the first-named pri-, Boners, and these warrants were placed in the bands of Head-eonstat;le g.Tale, of the Liverpool department of the Irish constabulary. From information he received, M`Hale suspected that the prisoners were concealed about the house or'premises of Corrigan, in Chisenbalestreet, and he went to search for them. After considerable difficulty ihroWn in his way by Corrigan, who denied all knowledge of them, M'Hale succeeded in apprehending Coughlin, concealed in Corrigan's.cellar, and also found -Corrigan had secured a passage for one man on board the ship Universe, bound for New York, .iut for which passage ticket be had paid 3/. On searching the vessel the prisoner, John Toopar, was found among the passengers, and taken into custody. The ocher prisoner, Martin Toopar, was found packed up in a large box, for which no owner could be found, and the back of which was extensively perforated with holes, to admit of his obtaining air. Corrigan admitted that he had got 101. from parties in Ireland for the purpose  of getting the men sent out of the country, but denied that be knew of any crime being charged against them. The magistrate, after hearing the case, raid be had no evidence before him that any murder had been committed, and he must discharge Corrigan, which ho accordingly did. however, not to be baffled, said he would take them on his own responsibility ;. he accordingly secured all four, and they will be immediately transmitted to Ireland.
