_KlLD-iSE ( _IBELASD ) , _tlSlDAT . Fatal ErrECTs of _Jealooslv . —Au individual uamed Joshua _Macklin , respectably connected , was indicted for the murder of a person named Carwell . The prisoner was a young wan of superior , education and intelligence , 3 Ie pleaded _gailry to a cliarpe of matislauglltvr , llie capital _charge _having heen withdrawn , and the Crown allowed ihe plea . Of course iho details ofthe case d-d not , frum tlie course tak « n , publicly transpire . The facts , however , are asfolluws : —Sometime last summer the prisoner got mar ried to a young lady in _Jtonasterevan , previous to which , it appears , he was attached to another . Shortly aft _« r the marriage the prisoner was observed one night walking with his former lover , and _iKUh were perceived entering his garden . His wife was inforuud of the matter by some good-natured friend , and
she went , of course , to look for them in the garden ; when , to avoid her rage and delude discovery , tliey _retired to a smuwer-heuse in the _garden . The wife _having traced them there , locked it on the outside , and went to call some fiituds . The prisoner broke open the llOUSC , and was in tlie act © ffettisis out the lady , when his wife and some other friends came up , and hie companion could no longer he concealed . An angry altercation followed , ¦ when the prisoner , in a paroxysm ef rage , ran to his 'bouse for his goo , aud fired amongst the persons who were assembled . Three of them were wounded slightly , and a fourth died from the effect of injuries receired . For this homicide the prisoner was indicted . He addressed tbe court in a speech of considerable _eloouencr , declaring he had no intention « f liurtuij ; any person . The . Chief Jus rice ofthe Common Fleas sentenced him to
seven yeort transportation . GUiCU ( _ISkLiNDj , _IVeDXESDAT .

Prisoner , a small middle-aged man , dressed ic what might be termed the " _siiabbi genteel" style , stood forward in thc front of the dock , and iu a shrill , hut bold tene of voice , pleaded uot guilty . All tbe females aud juveniles in the court were then ordered to withdraw . After the court heing thus cleared , 3 fr . Schoalcs , Q .

( Laughter . ) Shortly after that time 1 took a suspicion of him , and I wrote oft ¦ jo a relation of mine who lives at Druinkeeran , in _i * ae puunty of Cavan , about him aud his _estates .

A Villus . —At these assizes a man named James < _iaiffley was indicted for the murder of a poor _cripj-. k who resided near _Xaas , by shooting hiin _tlinim-k tinliead . _Theprinciiialerideiiceagaiiist the prisoner was 3 _ta accomplice who had become _approver ; and tbe d _^ _closures of atrocities , outrages , and crimes which ihat accomplice freely made , have perhaps never been exceeded in the career of one so young iu years . There were wit-• _nsBses examined on the trial who corroborated in some collateral points lie approver ' s eridence ; _suchasthauhc jirisoner and tke informer had been in company _together on tlie day of the murder . The jury , notwithstanding ,

up at the cross road towards Caragh , and they met aman ; there is a gravel _yit there . -, the prisoner and I were Oil the corner ot the ditch the night was dark ; the women asked the man if he saw a light , and he said " yes ;" when the prisoiier leaped up and said lie would show hiM light , and then a tussle ensued for a while , when the _jirisimcr called me to assist him ; the _nonieu wcre going n then , audi turned one of ithem back ; I desired the prisoner tu put it ( meaning tho contents of the pistol ) through hiui , as that was a password ; he had the pistol iu his hand , and be tired the shot at the man ; I was a yard behind the man , aud same of the shot whinwd t » y my txr ; Q , uisl _« yfivedtlie shot and ihe man fell ; 1 stepped over his body ; saw the _iirisouer next day iu Subliu ; we
went into a public-house , and saw an account of thu murder iu the _Freemrnx _' s Journal ; that was on * Friday ; xve met at Blauciumistowu tliat evening wiih a person named Doric , where we robbed a wau ; I was arrested in the _Ctitle-jard , but I don ' t know what brought me there . Cross-examined by Mr . Gorman : I swear I _dou't know what Drought me to the Castl « -yard ; 1 had business there , but did not think of what it was till I went there ; 1 went to the Castle-yard to give myself up for thc robbery , but I did not think of that till 1 weat iu there ; it was au hour after I went there that I thought of it . I aai twenty-one years of age , as I have heard . Mr , Gurm « n : How did you _support yourself for the hut three yean *! _liynionej . —Jir . Gorman : Got honestly ? Yes ; some of it I _& _orroifco ! from men . —Mr . Gorman : Borrowed
uMm men with a pistol at their heaus ? Yes . —Mr . Gorman : And that ' s what you call getting money honestly ! Witness : Of course , 1 got money any way I could ; if I got it honestly so much the better , but if not , I robbed ; you know you get money honestly if you can , l » ut whun I could not get it that way , why 1 procured it in the best manner I could ; can't form the must remote idea of tlie number of outrages , robberies , aud crimes I have been engaged in . 1 can't go within twenty of tke number . Can ' t tell witliiu ten of how many houses I have broken _iuio and robbed . —Mr . Gurniau : Tell me within five times of how often you were tried ? Oh , I was seldom caught , you know . I generally put in another in my place , apd that was toy business to tho Castle . My ceuscienee smote me when the man was murdered , and 1 went out and committed a highway robbery next night _.
I was afraid I would be hanged , and then my conscience smote nac , so I said I would save it and niy neck together . I thought 2 * much of my n « ck , if uot more , thau 1 did of nty conscience . I fuel great inward quakiugs now . If you wcre a priest or minister I would tell you more _nboutit . —Mr . Gorman : If I were I would not wish to _h-ivc such a parishioner as you . Witness : You might luve _ajwor-e , 1 assure you!—Mr . Gorman : On yeur oath , do you think there is as great a villain as yourself breathing the breath of life this moment ! . Witness : I don't think there is . —lir . Gorman : Do you thiuk , from Adain to the present day there ever existed a greater villain than you aie ! I thiuk not ; I curried a pistol myself according to circumstances ; we had only one pittol at the _Blanchardsteivu rouWy . and _Qufgley bad it ; I had it in tlie park that day ;
tbe stock of thepistol was broken before that , but I cannot say how long ; it was broken before the murder ; Doyle was _withusatBlanchxrdstowu ; when I metQuigleyin Barrack-stiest , I told him I supposed tbe man was dead ; I was taken up ; mx account of the robbery at the trial was that I was not there at all ; Doyle gave me a whip that he took from one ofthe men ; I a ' w _.-iysassistcU at robberies , and often knocked down men , but would not like to kill a man : " put it through him" was a _password , not to put t ie coiitcntBthrougli liim ; my comrade understood that as to frighten the man ; told the story eight days after the trial to an . _iatpeetur of police in Bridewell-lane ; went to give myself up as a person concerned ia the deed ; can't say where Doyle was the night of the murder , but met him next day at thc King ' _s-bridgC ; did uot tell bim a word abont the murder ; he was an old companion and friend of mine , and I parted bim near Kings-bridge and went to Tighe-stteet ; niethimiiext day
in a pubiic- _( ouse in Barrack-street ; theprisoner avked Doyle to come to _Blanchardstown to commit the robbery , which we thought uo crime at all ; we time often xveut out—« o often , that I can't tell ; we would rob any one or any plate , aud did so for years . "We were regular old partners in crime . I know the prisoner four years or n ore , and was acquainted with him before we robbed several places in the county of Dublin , Doyle and I were robbers and housebreakers long before we knew the prisoner . Doyle always carried a pistol , powder , and shot . He carried the same sort of shot as was found in the man ' s head , and so did I . Doyle and I are seven y cars 011 the road , and xve have committed all sorts of crimes . —To the jury : I don ' t expect to get any reward . I do it all out of pure and _disiuttre-ted motives . _JJex-er heard of a reward . Tl e crime lay heavy on my _miud , I assure you . A juror : Of courae you told the story to save your neck ! Witness : 0 : course I did .
_Nottingham , Friday . Charge or _Maksucghtee , —Joseph ltull ' msun , aged St , engineer , aud William Loiigdon , aged 18 , engineer , both in the employ of Messrs . Wakefield , Xortb , and . Morley , were charged upon the coroner ' s inquisitiou , held at _Xuttall , on the 25 th ot" August last , with feloniously killing aud slaying Thomas Soar . Mr . Wilduiau stated the ca = e . and called Joseph Barton , overlooker at the _Cinderhilt Colliery , iu tbe parish of Nuttall , who said—The deceased , Thomas Soars , was employed iu the pit on Friday , _tbei' _^ iid of August . There is a cage used for the purpose of lifting coals from the pit , wliich is _ivorkcd by meant of e steam-engine . _Joseph Kolliuson had the care of the engine that day , and was assisted by-William _Lougdon as stoker . There is a hell in th * engIm _.-Iiou > e , tlie handle of which is at the bottom of the
pit . it was Hollmsoii ' s duty to remain in the enginehouse and watch the bell , aud it is also his duty to set thc engine at work , in obedience to the signals . Itollinsoti had been employed as engineer about a year or more , and Longdon had been his assistant for nearly the whole of that time . It is the duty of an engineer to let an engine stand when no signal is given . When the bell rings once , it is a signal to go on if tiie engine be still , Aid if it be in _uu-tiou it is a signal to stop . This is a regular rule at _DabUnston Colliery , as well as at _Ciudcrhill . Atthe time the accident happened , I was gone to breakfast , and as 1 was returning , 1 heard that a man had got killed . The banksmen were about themuutU of the pit , and the two prisoners were in the engine . room . Moses Barton—1 am ovcilouker of the machinery at Ciuderhilt Colliery , and was so at the time of Soar ' s death . I hare repeatedly told both prisoners never to go ou without the signals . It is well known that when a m « u is coming up , or is _Standing on the cage , be should shout "hold on . " He should
not touch thecage until he hus given this signal . ( Other witnesses proved thatthe dtceastdomitteddoir . gthis . ) Langdon has frequently been allowed to do very importune duties , because he is steady aa « intelligent . On this occasion , having charge of the engine at the moment of the amduut , 1 think he _maSe a mistake by being overanxious . At the time the accident occurred , the cages were being drawn up , minute by minute , alternately- There are two shafts to the pit , and the depth of each is 320 yards . The cages were brought up emptied , and let down again , alternately , in the short space of one minute . I am not aware that Rollinsou was the cause ofthe death of amaniua similar way a fortnight before , although one was killed . Other witnesses proved that J . uugdou had the management of the « w , iwi _av ths moment of tha accident , aud Kolliuson was set aside , being exempted from the charge by his lordship ; and alter * very able defense by ilr . Jfacauley , the other prisoner was acquitted by the jury . Satuboat .
Tn £ uiahce or Mubdeii _atXswAXE . —William Homer , butcher , of Sewark , aged eighteen years , and William Haselby , labourer , of Newark , aged seventeen years , were charged upon tbe coroner ' s inquisition , held at _Kewarkupsn-Trent , tha Gth day of Jlarch instant , with the wilful iiiurder of Mary Ana lVrhins , singlo woman , aged fifteen years , by throw-ins her into the TreUt . The grand jury fOUlld't true bill agaiust Horner ; but iu obedience to the recommendation of the Chief Justice , acquitted Haselby , as no evidence could be adduced Kgainst bim , further than the confession of ihe other prisoner . —The case for ihe prosecution was conducted by Mr . Wilmore , and Mr . _Macattley defended the prisoner . The prisoner was a batcher at Newark , and William Haselby down io the day of this occurrence bad lilted the ofiice of "boott" at the Swan and Salmon public-house , when he was dis .
missed from that service . It appeared that shortly ; before eleven o ' clock on the ni * 'lit in question ilia prisoWs met in _Scwark thc unfortunate deceased , who some lime _previously had left the home of her parents at Leicester aud taken to a bad life . The charge against the prisoner was , that he had been guiity on the night iu question of the murder of the deceased , and the suggestion for the prosecution was , that he and the other loung man . _Hnselby , having met the deceased , had induced her to accompany them to the back yard of the ¦ _•^ waii and Salmon _puMic-house for improper purposes , and , after the twofold accomplishment 0 f n purpose , < hence to the lock-gates of the lewark division of the Trent navigation , where the prisoner hud uloav , or in conjunction with H _.-iscJby _, wrapped her shawl over her neck and face , to tbe depth of nine or teu iuclies three or
four limes , with the oljtcc of preventing her crying out or otherwise making an alarm , and then tin on 11 her into the water , where she wns drowned , and the dead body picked up on the following morning . Suspicion fell _upoitUeprii-oncr , and he was brought , ou the next day ( Wednesday ) , in custody before Mr . T . F . A . Luniaby , the coroner , at tile inquest upon the body , where _iiiblicrt , the lock-keeper , deposed ui the effect , that he w . nt to bed a few mmu ' . cs before eleven o ' clock , ami whilst he was _unrirc-sufg hyihv light of a candle , in the front room ' ¦ f ' _lis Ilouse , heard _thefi-t , t » i _.-ps . of ti . ree ov lour pirsons _iioir . g _alor _.-r , ami th ' - sound ot _voii'i s . awon _^ which was that of a woman .

He then opened the window aud MW distinctly the prisoner Horner , whom he well kuew , and whom , being without _"hiB list , he supposed to have goue over to » loaded boat to try and get it out of the water , run , " in a hurried aud confused manner , _biu-k ver tiie lock-gate , and up a passnge which led into the Town-street .

The next morning got up shortly after six o ' clock , and saw four or five men vainly wideavouring to move the lock gate .

At the time he examined the body these sores remahud . The deceased hud evidently struggled severely after having been thrown into the water . He had no doubt death was caused by drowning . Then * were no marks _upen the body indicative of violence having been used to cause death . — Thomas _f . A .

Upon being cautioned _, the prisoner said , " I dou't know the deceased : I don ' t know that ever I saw her in my life . 1 WSS not neiir tllC lock last night ; 1 went to bea at a quarter to eleven , and have witnesses to prove it . " On the second day he suid ,
" I and another young man , named Vr jlliam Haselby , who lives as 'boots' at the Swan and Salmon Inn , st Newark , met a young woman , whom I do not know , near Mrs .

We ail xventtogother down the Swan and Salmon yard , leading to the navigation side , and also to the lock entry from Cuttle-gate , into a stable in the Swan and Salmon yard . We then went down to the water side , where I shook hands with the girl , and was going up the lock entry , when Ha 6 elby called the girl back to look at a pole which was in the water . She did so , and _wat standing at the edge of the bank , when Haselby pushed h * r head first iuto the water , and ran away ; he did not come back again . T ran to her assistance , and did my best to get her out , but could not . She
did not cry oiit _. luut I shouted for assistance several times , and no one came . I stayed until I could see her no mon , when I went away . If any one had come to my assistance , I could have got her out . There was r pole floating in the water , and I tried to reach it , but could not ; if I could have got the pole I could have got her out . I then went to my lodgings in Parliament-street , nnd as I was going to the buck door 1 saw Haselby knocking at the front . He asked me tu let him in , but I said hfl could not sleep with me that night . He then inquired whether I had got thc woman out , and I told bim I had not , but that if ho had stopped I could hav « done so . I saw him yesterday , when he said he did not mtan to chuck the girl into the water , but that he was fresh . He certainly was fresh , but not so much fto as iwt t < i know _viUivt \\*
was doing . " On tbe third day he made another state _, ment , which was very similar to that given on the previous day . —Mr . _Msicauley , with much eloquence aud ut great length , addressed the jury , clearing up many dark points against the prisoner with great advantage , and setting in the most favourable view every circumstance ofa mitigating nature . The learned judge summed up very carefully and with much calmness , and impartially commented upon the various parts of the evidence _. Whilst tho jury were considering their verdict , Suuerin . tendent Whitworth came into tbe court in great haste , and informed the counsel and attorneys for thu prosecution , that a female mimed Cree had just arrived from Newark to give evidence 011 the trial .

until she saw them , but that she saw a young man ( Horner , she belioved ) , on the night in question , strilca the deceased with a pole , wrap her head in her shawl , and throw her into the Trent . His lordship , upon being informed of this circumstance , directed the woman's deposition to be taken . Aftor about a quarter of au hour ' s consultation , the jury returned a _verdict of Mot Guilty _sgainst the prisoner . Having perused thc document of the strange witness who had just arrived at tbe eleventh hour , the Chief _Justica ordered Horner to be retained in custody , and discharged Haselby on his own _recognisances to appear again when called upon .

Vrom the evidence it appeared that , on the evening of the 3 lst Jan ., the prisoner aud some others were drinking together at the Oak Inn , at Milborne St . Andrew , nnd that , between eight and nine o ' clock , the prisoner having previousl y left the liouse , an alarm of lire was heard . The persons drinking hi the tail-room left the house , and they found the pri . smier standing outside . He then exclaimed , pointing to the lire , "Look at that light there 1 " One oftbe men said , it must he the moon , or the light from the mail-coach , which passed tlie spot at that hour . The prisoner said , " No _, it must be a lire ; " and thereupon they went to tlie farm ol' Mr . Ikuiamiu _lliles , where they discovered a rick
of barley on tin . The prisoner assisted in extinguishing this fire , and he wns heard to say , " This is enough to open any farmer ' s eyes , _ltatlur than turn a man out that ' s got a family , they had better give him a sovereign to keep him iu work . " The prisoner suddenly disappeared , and in a few minutes nflei wards another lire was discovered within SOD yards of Mr . lliles's rick , arid the prisoner pretended to be very tietivfc in extinguishing the Haines .

tbey approached the prisoner and the wituess , one ol them exclaimed , " Por God ' s sake open tho gata I" Ths witness said , "No , I shall not open the gate till I know who this man is . " The prisoner then said his name was Joseph Way , and ihe wituess immediately let him go , and run as fast as he could to the place whence the flames issuud . The witness had known Joseph Way before , but the night was dark , and he did not recognise him at first . In addition to this evidence , it was proved that about ten minutes before the occurrence of the first fire , the prisoner purchased a box of lueifer matches , aud that during the second fire his conduct was so indecent , that the
clergyman of the parish felt it his duty to reprove him . He made use of very violent language , and amused himself by throwing dung at one of tlie persons present _.

very lively , and fullv supported former quotations , viz . —os . Od . for old downs , 5 s . 2 d , for halt-bred , and 4 s . 4 d . for polled sheep . These rates appear to be thc maximum rates for mutton under tlio influence of die times . It is probably that prices will _shortly be-COluO much , easier , but opinions vary on this point .

Loss Op Tiie Barque Francis Spaight. And...
LOSS OP TIIE BARQUE FRANCIS SPAIGHT . AND TWENTY-ONE PERSONS . The ship England ' s Queen arrived in the Mersey on Monday afternoon from Bombay and the Gape ef Good Hope , which latter port she left on the 19 th of January . This is the latest arrival from that quarter ; and to Captain Sheddings , the commander of the vessel , we are indebted fer the Cope of Good Hope and Natal Shipping and Mercantile Gazette ofthe _Dttl of January , convoying the follow-in ** , melancholy intelligence of the loss ofthe Francis _Spaighfc : — "During thc night between Tuesday and Wednesday last , it blew a violent gale from the northward , and at six , a . m ., on "Wednesday , the squalls were very
severe . " At eight o'clock , on the 3 nth , the wind came more to the westward , in a hard squall , accompanied _, with torrents of rain , when the barque Francis Spuigbt , of 8 GC tens , from Manilla to London , was observed driving towards the strand , and an attempt ; was unfortunately made to set thc mainsail , wliich brought the vessel's broadside to the shore ; and ia this position , with thc mainsail aback , she continued to drive until she struck tbe ground near the slave lodge , about a mile from the _village of Papendorp , when , in consequence of being broadside to the beach , she rolled heavily , the sea occasionally breaking over
her decks . A . whale boat and a surf boat were sent from Cape Town . The whale boat succeeded in getting alongside the barque , and a line was thrown over the vessel by the rocket apparatus . The momenc tlie boat touched the side , the crew of the barque , who Appeared to have lost all presence of mind , rushed into her , wheu she was filled and cap . sized , and , sad to relate , the captain and fourteen men of the crew were drowned , together with four men of tbe boat's crew , named Thomas Williams , William Taylor , John Jackson , aad Charles Norton ; " A surf boat and another boat were also sent fraitl _* the North Wharf , by Messrs . T . and J . Sinclair ; both _, boats capsized , and two men , named Dollie and Peter , wcre drowned .
" The following are . the names ofthe crew saved , viz .: —James Robertson , carpenter , and John Mc Lend , seaman . "Captain Patterson and the following men WCT _© drowned , viz .: —Thomas Uaydon , mate ; Magnus Smith , second mate ; Henry Mate , _FteH-ard ; David Evans , Edward McDonald , George IIutchinj ; s , John Smith , of Lciih ; John Smith , of Edinburgh ; and William Widder , seaman ; William Rvines , cook ; John Mittin , Thomas Beddoe , William Hall , and Richard Parker , apprentices . " It is exactly _twunty-five years since a northerly
gale occurred m Table Bay during the summer months ; and on reference to the Government Gazette ot the year 1821 , lve find that on the _4 tli of January » northerly gale , therein designated a hurricane , blew with great violence , when the Danish ship India 1 acket , and thc English ships Dorah and Emma , were stranded ; but wc believe no loss of life then _, occurred . __ Had the head-sails of the Francis Spaight been set , instead of the mainsail , and the vessel nut on the beach , stem on , and forced up by keeping tho head sails upon her , it is very probable that the whole ol the crew would have been saved .
" rUc vessel is broken in midships , « nd is a total wreck ; and vevy little of Uie cargo will be saved uunijured . " The manifest and mail have not yet been found , but , so far as it has been ascertained , the cargo consisted of sugar , hemp , tobacco , cigars , rattans , aud suudrv other articl _.-s . "
