The law was ordered to take its course upon William Newitt, for sheep-stealing; Thomas Thomas Maynard, for forgery in the Excise Department; Stephen Sandford, and William Leslie, for a burglary in the house of Mr. Stultz, in Clifford Street, who were ordered for execution on Thursday next. .

John O'Dare, a discharged-seaman, was tried on Monday at the Sussex Assizes, before Mr. Barron Garrow, for maliciously firing at Lieutenant Rosenberg, his former commanding officer, with intent to murder, maim, disable, or do hint some grievous bodily harm.

John Russell, a man engaged at one of the factories in Chard, after having undergone several examinations before the Magistrates in that town, was on Saturday last fully committed for trial, on suspicion of having perpetrated the murder of Joan Turner, near Chard. Russell had been taken up and examined immediately after the murder ; but the circurastances against him then were not deemed sufficient to warrant his committal, and he was accordingly discharged. He remained at large until the early part of last week, when, further evidence, having been obtained, he was again apprehended, and the result has been that we have above mentioned. The prisoner was lodged in Ilchester gaol on Monday morning.—Taunton Courier.

A young girl, named Mary M‘Donough, was met by her mother on the banks of the canal, near Leeson Street, Dublin, at a late hour on Saturday night. The mother abused the daughter for being out of the house at so late an hour, and

called her a " You shall not live long to call me by that name," said the daughter, taking her mother in her arms and flinging her into the canal.

The daughter was immediately taken fide custody. The body of the mother was found in a short time after it had been thrown into the canal, but all attempts at reani- mation were ineffectual—Dublin Morning Register.

Six of Lord Calthorpe's gamekeepers encountered six poachers about ten days ago, as the latter were plying their trade in his Lordship's preserves. The keepers had no guns, the poachers laid aside theirs ; each Was provided with a heavy bludgeon, and used it to the best advantage upon the head of his antagonist. After a severe bout, the keepers were disabled; - but the poachers have not reaped the fruit of their victory, most of them having been since lodged in gaol.

A very alarming fire, and which led to the destruction of three valuable horses broke out in the stables of the College Saw-mills, on the Surrey side of the, Thames, on Monday evening. The flames were so rapid in their progress, that it was found impossible to rescue the whole of the animals; and three were dis- covered on Tuesday Morning, buried under the ruins, the flesh nearly burnt front off the bones.

A fire broke out on Friday, in the kitchen at the Vice-Regal Lodge, Phrenix Park; which was not got under until part of the building was destroyed. The fire, however, did not reach the dwelling of his Excellency, and the only inconvenience likely to result is, that the 'Vim-Regal establishment is, in consequence, likely to remove to Dublin Castle sooner than intended.—Dublin Evening Packet.

On the dreadful night of Friday last, while the Earl of Wettlyss smack was off Yarmouth, on her passage from Leith to London, two men, named Nichol Arnott and James Mackie, while engaged on the bowsprit, were by a heavy sea washed olf, and instantly disappeared.

A few days ago, Mr. Thompson, gamekeeper to the Duke of Buccleuch, accom- panied by a considerable number of persons, went out to enjoy the pleasures of the chase. When a little way from Sanquhar. they started a strong hare, which scampered off in a northerly direction, and with a degree of speed not very usual even among the elite of moorland hares. Time dogs, however, did their duty well; and, though puss still had the best of the race, she made a very rapid sweep to the left, skirted the lively village of Crawick, and then bounded along the public- or water-side road, uuscared by the appearance of the old bridge, which at the moment was thickly lined with spectators. About this time one of the hounds, in Ids fury, thrust his nose between the legs of a boy nearly ten years of age, hoisted him on his back, and, notwithstanding his weight and unsteadiness, cleared a dike said to be more than four feet high, deposited his burden on the farther side, and then went on his way rejoicing, as if nothing had happened to retard him for a mo- ment.—Dumfries Courier.

Last week the Earl of Mulgrave's alum manufactory at Kettleness, near' Whitby, was utterly destroyed. The manufactory itself, and the houses of the labourers, were situated on the sea-shore, under a very lofty cliff. In the counts of the week, seine fissures were perceived in the cliff, which gave rise to appre. !tensions that a considerable part of it was about to fall ; and as these fears in- creased, some of the inhabitants removed part of their furniture and shut up their houses. At last, the rock began to give way from the bottom, and gliding for- ward, forced before it the whole of the premises connected with the works, the agent's house, and about fourteen cottages, reducing the whole to one mass of ruins, and burYing the most of them under an immense weight of rock. There was on the prentises at the time manufactured alum to the value of 3,0004 Hap- pily no lives were lost, although several families were in their houses in bed at the time- the rock began to give way, who, had not the cracking of the fissures alarmed them, would inevitably have been buried in the ruins. Providentially the sloop Little Henry, Captain Richardson, was laid on at the works at the time, on board of which the whole of the inhabitants had to be taken. As the rock kept parting the cracking resembled thunder, and issued smoke like a volcano.—Hull Packet.
