On Tuesday night a free pardon► was received by the Chester city authorities for William Roberts, Henry Clarke, and Edward Richards, who were convicted at the spring city sessions for offences connected with the tailor riots, and sentenced respectively to 12 months' imprisonment. The terms for which other tailors were imprisoned have all expired.-11faccicsfidd Courier.  On Saturday last, as Ann Nicholson, a young woman employed in the mill of Messrs. William Bayley and Brothers, of Dukinfield, was standing by the side of an upright shaft, with her back against it, the casing fell down, when her clothes were instantly drawn round the shaft, and before she could be extricated, having been carried round it many times, she was so severely crushed as to expire instantly.—Macclesfield Couricr.  On Friday last, Edmund Galley, alias Turpin, whose extraordinary case has since the last Assizes occasioned so much investigation, and excited an extraordinary degree of interest, was removed from Exeter in the custody of Mr. Cole, governor of the county gaol of Devon, to Newgate. It will be recollected that he was sentenced to death with another man convicted for murder, bat his fellow prisoner declared in the most solemn manner that Galley was not concerned in the murder.  On Wednesday, the 7th instant, as two labourers were quarrying stones in the parish of Stogursey, near Bridgewater, they discovered some human bones, apparently of a young person, laid on a bed of rock, about fourteen inches below the surface of the ground. When the fact became known it was generally reported that, about thirty years ago, a boy named Binding, who had been apprenticed to a farmer in that parish, suddenly disappeared, after having met with an accident to one of his master's horses, and that the master had threatened to punish the boy. In consequence of these reports the magistrates determined that an inquest should be held, when sixteen witnesses were examined. There were fractures in the skull, evidently made at a remote time, and which left no doubt that the body had been murdered ; but there was no possibility of identifying the remains as those of the boy alluded to, nor was there any evidence by which a charge against any particular individual could be substantiated. The jury returned a verdict of " Wilful Murder against some person or persons unknown."—Bath Journal.  . . A few days since a pleasure party took a boat at Portreath, and proceeded to the Gull-rock, where they kindled a fire for culinary purposes, and enjoyed themselves on the rock throughout the day. On taking their departure in the evening, they neglected to extinguish the embers, which being fanned by the breezes of the night, revived and spread over a part of the rock, consuming the verdure which grew thereon. It continued to burn for two days and nights, and its nocturnal appearance was peculiarly interesting, as it looked like a volcano in miniature rising out of the ocean, and no doubt it created a great deal of surprise in those who witnessed it while passing either up or down the Channel.—Cornwall Gazette.
