He heard that

He heard Hyiand had been removed for improper language to the army . Captain Frazer came to the gate , and called witnesB abroad . He beard he and Robs were returning from Dublin ; they must pass through the gite of Cloncurry on their way to Clonard . Witness had been in bed before they came to the gate ; it was dark before he went to bed ; he had taken a sleep before : ihey came to the gate ; it was dark when they came there . Captain Frezer rapt at the door , and called witness up ; he had come from towards Dublin . When witness went out , Captain FrszM was by himself . A horse came up to the

It was given with a pointed instrument !; it penetrated the cavity of the belly—it was also a * mortal wound . He said he examined seven wonnds . He had a cut on the nose ; the end of his noae wai entirely separated . He believed the same instrument ( might hate inflicted e ? ery wound . His 3 aw was cut through ; it was a cut , notia stab . He bad no wound on his ! hands ; It was about "the 1 Itn of July that he was sent for . To a question by Mr . Lock—Said he knew the state of the country j that be believed it 3 the duty of officers to take up any man who was walking at the hour Dixon was . 1 Mr . M'NAti , y desired to know if gentlemen Intended to produce evidence to show that the officer bad a right to put Dixon to deatiji ; but that he should go into the character of the inan . t ¦
Dr . Harrison BaW ; he heard all Kildaiw was out of the peace ; that Captain Frazer lived at Clonard ; that Clonard was about seven miles from Gloricurry ; and that Cloncurry was \ the direct road from Kilcock to Clonard . ' j ; Mr . M'Naily informed the Court that the Crown rested the prosecution here . i On behalf of the prisoner , the Rev . Thomas Snipe was produced and sworn . ' Examined by Mr . ] RipGWAr ^ -He said he was a magistrate for the counties of Meath and KUdare } that he knew Captain F « Z 9 r [ a long time ; that be [ had been in habits of great intimacy with him ever since he came to the country . He [ said the country had been for a long time in no disturbed a statethat na well-affected
, man's life was safe an hour ; that the situation of the country was £ 0 very alarming , frota the great number of murders and robberies that bad been committed , that he found It necsBsary to applyito the Commander-in-Chlef for fa strong military forise ; thathe had even found it jneceeawy to apply for artillery . Almost every man in the country have found it necessary for the safety of his family to build up tha windows of his house for defence ; that the whole" district had notice given them that any man found out of hia habitation an hour after sun-set , was liable to be taken up , till he gave an account of himself . Those persons taken
at night were aent to the camp till next morning , that he had frequently ordered a Serjeant ' s guard to bring in all persons found but an hour after sun-set , till they gave the necessary account of themselves . He said he bad told Captain Fiuzer that the country about Cloncurry was unsettled , He had received such information of ita being so , that he thought Unnecessary to communicate it to Captain Frezer , and pointed out the line for him to pursue . He got the highest character of Captain Frazar fropi the Commander-in- Chief , and from his own relations in the county Cavan . He was a gentleman of very gr 6 at humanity and uniformly correct in his conduct He was one of the best men he ever
knew to have a command in the country . Cross-examined by M . Antissell—He did net know Dixon , nor ever heard his charaoter . He heard he was a carpenter and lived near Cloncurry . Witness never took up a man of good character—and knew very few poor men of good character . Had he met Dixon at twelve o ' clock at night , he would moat certainly take him up , or the gentleman himself , or any ether man , at such an hour , till he' gave a proper account of himself . Captain Frater is not a magistrate . At such times as these he thought it his duty to take up any man in the country out of his house at unseasonable hours , though
he had not been a magistrate ; that witness desired Captain , Fraz ? r to do so . He had no doubt but that every commanding officer had a right to do bo . He does not believe that any man could properly take np men unless they were , military officers or magistrates . Witness gava directions to take up persons in the line « f the country from Clonard to Cloncurry , at a distance &l bIx or seven mileB . He heard Captain Frazer had dined that day at Kilcock , at the Inn , in company with a Mr , Bemford . He heard he was in liquor . Witness never saw him so . He heard he waa what is generally called hearty . ;
To a question by Mr . Ridgway—Witness solemnly declared that Captain Frazer was a gentleman of very great humanity . * ! Mr . Espinass informed the Court that Capt . Frazei here rested his defence , and hoped a distinct issue might be sent up to the Jury that he might be acquitted by his country , as he must be by his God ; Thomas Ryan , Esq . observed that that part of the country was neither proclaimed or in a disturbed state , for the truth of which he appealed to Sir Fen ton Aylmer , and Michael Aylmer , Etq . The deceased being a man of his , he felt a delicacy in coming forward himself—but either of those gentlemen could prove it . Mr . Locke said , [ it did not signify be presumed , whether the man bad been taken in a district not proclaimed , or in ' one that bad ; a few yards made no difference . .
Mr . M'Nally objected to a distinct issue being sent up to the jury . ; he would be sorry to be obliged to do bis duty by speaking to evidence ; it lay with gentlemen whether they would put him on the necessity of doing so or not The issues must go to the jury together . * Mr . Espinass said , at Naas an officer and Serjeant were tried before Mr . Justice Kelly , for killing a man whom they had in custody for attempting to escape at Leixlip ; it was argued by the counsel for the crown that a separate issue should not be sent up to the jury , for the serjeant—the . court was pleased to overrule the objection ; the issue was accordingly sent up , the Serjeant was acquitted , and immediately admitted an evidence for the officer . -.
Mr . M'Nally said , there were several speciea of homicide ; several , though not capital , were punishable . The prisoner Frazsr might be found guilty of Manslaughter , in which i case he would not be a proper witness for the other prisoner . Court did not consider it as any favour to Captain Fraaar ; therefore would not hesitate to send up the issue to the jury on Frazer . The issue having accordingly been sent op , the jury returned their verdict—Not Guilty . : Simon Fr&zsr was then sworn to give evidence for John Ross . ;'
Examined by Mr . DKehmis—He said he recollected very well the 9 th of July last , and the circumstances that bad happened to him ou that day . He said Boss was a soldier in his company ; and his servant ; on his returning to Clonard late at night from Dublin , he met a man , one Dunn , who was in liquor ; Dunn could not give a good account of himself .. It was about twelve o ' clock at night , when tie took him , he gave him in charge to Ross . He has been in the habit of bringing men to Clonard , taken at unseasonable hours out of their houses ; he gave him to Ross , and he attempted to make his escape ; be was mounted behind Ross ; ¦ when he rode up to ihe turnpike gate , he desired the man who kept it , [ to turn out for a defender ; when he came out he found it was not the man who had
been there a little while before . He said he waa a good man ; he observed a man on the road , called to him , asked him ' where he had been ] he said ho had been buying nails . Witness said it was Sunday night , and too late ; and that he would bring him with him , aud if he did not give a good account of himself would send him aboard the fleet ; he would not yet get up behind - him , and witness struck , him with his hand . Dixon said be would not go behind witness , but weuld go behind the other man . He then baS him put behind Rosa , and Dunn behind witness ; he then told them he hoped the country would be quiet When witness came up to tbe turnpike-gate , he asked where his own man was ? His horse came up ; he said he was aff aid his servant was killed . Ha desired Ross ito take care of the man they bad taken , and bid the turnpike mun to keep the horse while he went in quest of bis servant

That Ross said , "He wont get up in a hurry * forll have killed him . " Witness saul , "Good God ! have you killed him ? " " Yes , " said Ross , "far if I had not killed him , he would have killed me for he had near taken the dirk from me . That he went next day to where the man lay ; that he enquired if Mr . Ryan was home f he was not ; he enquired f any Magistrate was at home ? there was not a Magistrate in tbe neighbourhood . He in presence of four men examined the dead man's hand ; found it was cut in the palm . He said hfe waa happy to find his hand cut ); because he found Ross had told truth . He knows Ross a considerable time ; he is aboHt fifteen or sixteen years old ; all the officers of the regiment gave him a very good character .

Several fields in the baronies of
Condons , Formoy , and Barry more } have been resown , as the seeds first put in were found , instead of springing up , to be completely rotten . The circumstance is not , it appears , owing so much to moisture as to the last crop having been dug too early , and consequently wanted mature ripeness for the seed . The wheat and other crops in these districts appear very promising , although ( the weather continues harsh , with frequent boisterous and cold showers , rather resembling March weather than that of May . — Cork Constitution .

Lobd Chancellor Sugden a Lunatic . —The following story was told by Mr . O'Connell at the Repeal Association on Tuesday . It has a look of authenticity , and is at ail events " too good to be lost" : — " The present Lord Chancellor , in the interim of making out the writs of supersedeas for the repeal magistrates , was very fon ' d of investigating into the management of lunatic asylums , and made an agreement with the Surgeon-General to visit , without any previous intimation , a luuatic asylum kept by Dr . Duncan , in this city . | Some person sent word to the asylum that a patient was to be sent there in a carriage that day , whofwas a smart little man , that thought himself one of the judgesor some
, great person of that sort , and who was to be retaiued by them . ( Laughter . ) Dr . Duncan was out when Sir Edward Sugden came there in half an hour afterwards , and on knocking at ! the door he was admitted and received by the keeper . He appeared to be very talkative , but the attendants humoured him , and answered all his questions . He asked if the Surgeon ( Jeneral had arrived , and the keeper assured him that he was not yet f come , but that he would be there immediately . * Well , ' said he , * 1 will inspect some of the rooms ( until he arrives . ' * Oh , no , Sir , ' said the keeper , r we could not
permit that at all . ' ' Then , I will w : alk for a while in the garden , ' said his Lordship , ' while I am waiting for him . ' ' We cannot let you go there either , Sir , ' said the keeper . ( Laughter . ) f * What , ' said he , ' don't you know that I am the JLord Chancellor V Sir / said the keeper , ' we have four more Lord Chancellors here already . ' ( Roars of laughter . ) He got into a great fury , and they were beginning to think of the strait waistcoat for him , when fortunately the Surgeon- General arrived . * Has the Lord Chancellor arrived yet V said he . The man burst out laughing at him , and said , ' jYes , Sir , we have him safe , but he is by far the most outrageous patient we have . ' ( Great laughter . )"

London Corn Exchange , Monday , Ju . ve 5—The arrivals last week were large of English Wheat from the coast of Lincolnshire , which came principolly consigned to our millers ;] the quantity from Boston being 2 , 400 quarters , from Spalding 2 , 740 , and from Wisbeaoh 2 , 830 quarters . From other parts of the coast we had fair supplies of Wheat , Malt , and Oats , but very moderate of Barley , Beans , or Peas . From Ireland the arrival of Oats reach about 20 , 000 quarters . Of foreign Wheat we have received a few cargoes , and Foreign Barley 1 , 600
quarters . The arrivals fresh by land samples this morning were principally from ] Essex , Kent , and Suffolk , and altogether formed a good supply for this season of the year . Wheats ! Were a slow sale , and a claarance could only be made at » decline of Is . per qnarter from this day week . Barley continues steady , with a good demand for dry grinding samples . Oats ' are held firmly , on last week ' s terms . Beans and Peas of all kinds remain nominally as quoted . There is more inquiry for Canary Seed , at higher prices . Caraway Seed is [ in good demand , the quantity left over being very limited . Flour remains unaltered .
London Smithfield Market , Monday , June 5 . —The attention ot the butchers , and that of the farmers who at this period of theiyear visit the market fer the purpose of purohasingjcattle for " stock , " was attracted this morning towards fourSpaniEb . Beasts , which made their appearance in the market , on account of their superior quality to most of the continental beasts which have [ been imported into London , as also from their improved proportions They were imported into this country about the month of August last , and have [ been grazing in the vicinity of Southampton ever since . With but one or two instances , perhaps , they were the best of the kind yet received from Spain as regards symmetery . The prices demanded were from £ 16 Ita . to £ 18
each . This being Whit-Monday was what is termed a holyday market , when trade } is expected to be duller than usaai ; but , contrary to the ordinary result , it was on the whole much better , for , notwithstanding the large number { of Sheep on offer , the Mutton trade was brisk comparatively . The supply of Beasts was moderate , ' and met with a £ wt sale , as although the inferior kinds were not so Wuch in demand , still the very jbest Beasts found ready buyers at high prices . Pj rime Scots may be quoted at 4 s . and 4 s . 2 d ., middling descriptions 3 s . 6 d . and 3 s . 8 d ., and coarser qualities from S 3 . to
33 . 2 d . Mr . Collins and Mr . Gurrier had each somo of the best in the market , aud the show was altogether a good ons . The Mutton trade was brisk throughout the day , and comparatively few head of Sheep remained unsold at the close . In some instances id . per stone advance was made , the very best Southdowns realising 6 d . per lb .,. polled Sheep from 3 s . 6 d . to 33 . 8 J ., and Ewes from 3 a . The Lamb trade was equally as dull as for the last fortnight , and prices were unaltered . The best Downs fetched but 5 s . 4 d ., andjother kinds 4 $ . 8 d . Pork and Veal are likewise a heavy sale , and receded in price about 2 d . per stone .
Hop Market , Monday ,. June &—This morning's letters bring a similar account jof tbe plantations to that which was reported last week . One singular feature this season is the general } appearance of the fly in Middle Kent , so many as seven and eight oh a leaf being found in several ofjthe large grounds . The severe attack of the flea , whjoh occurred during the last month , now shows its e , ffect by the excessively weak bine found iu many instances , and some hills seem to have been entirel y destroyed by the havoc of that insect . The , fly is distributed generally throughout the plantation , and the holders of hops are very firm under existing oiMumstances

three tons weight , and the whole were bound for Vera Cruz . As soon as it waa known that the vessel -was on fire she was deserted , as was also the John King , lying near her . HundredB of people left the town , ana many of the shops were shut up . Hie Sappers and Miners forming the surveying corps stationed at this place were requested to attend to fire into her , bo that she might be sunk , and a party of abont thirty , under the command of Lieutenant Jolland , were speedily on - the spot , a twenty-four pounder being dragged from the platform for use . Tip to this time the flames had just begun * io rise above the deck * and se-Teral shots ¦ were * 'well fired between the ivind aud
Explosion op a Ship Laden with Ahxtjnitiom . shortly before eleven o ' clock on Friday morning , the town 01 Southampton was thrown into great consternation bj the report of tbe Tartar brig in the docks being on fire , and that sbehad , inaddition to a great quantity of ammunition , two toss of gunpowder on board . The latter rumour appeared to be without foundation , as the actual cargo consisted of 1 , 000 PabQiams hollow or loided shells , a large quantity of rockets , shipped in London , and twenty brass guns manufactured in Southampton , and recently pHi on board , to receive which the Tartar bad put into Southampton . Some of the guns were of
water . The preparation for firing occupied some time , the dock ground being very unfavourable , and by ihe time that some eight or nine shots told , the flames bad extended fore and aft , and the rockets and loaded shells flew abeut and exploded in every direction . Of course the Sappers were called off , and the immediate neighbourhood abandoned . The sight at this time was grand and imposing , vast pumbers of the rockets going np simultaneously , and many of the shells exploding in the air . Some pieces of the iron fell a third of a mile from the vessel , Atthis time strong fears were entertained for ihe-safety of the ship John King lying close to leeward , but she has fortunately escaped with slight damage to the rigging . About one o ' clock the
mainmast "went by the board , drasging with it ine foremast , but the flames raged furiously below , at no great height , however , from a strong wind blowing at . the time ; about two o ' clock a further aud more powerful series of discharges and explosions took place , and at twenty minutes to three &he sank in ; deep -water . The Tartar wasundei 200 tons burden , commanded by Captain John Byrom . She was an old -vessel , and , we understand , built at By the , near Southampton some twenty years since . It was re-, ported that she touched ground coming from the river , and from that cause , or from the stowage , had . a list over ; the crew said she was not fit to go to sea , and refused to go with hir . The origin of the fire ; remains a mystery . It seems truly providential that ; no injury took place either to life or limb . The depth of water , low tide , is 18 to 20 feet where the Tartar lies .

The coldness of winter renders torpid tbe acrimonious fluids of the body , and in this state of inactivity their evil to the system is not perceived , but at the spring these are roused , and if not checked , mix up and circulate with the bloodrand thus the whole system is contaminated .

APJALUSG AKD PATAi ACCIDKST AT MANCHESTDU ; —A most distressing fatality , occasioned by the ; explosion of a boiler , occurred on Wednesday , at 1 , Medlock-Tale Dyeworks , the property of Messrs . ! Otho Hulme and Sons , situate in the township of Faflswertb , about five miles from Manchester . The " accident occurred about ten o ' clock in the morning , when tbe -works were in full operation , and it seems ) almost miracnlons that it didjaot prove much more : extensively fataL One unforHnate being jwas killedon the spot , and others are so severely injured as to : render their recovery a matter of -very great doubt . To make the nature of the accident understood it is ! necessary to state that Messrs . Hulme and Son's manufactory , in which both printing and dying are
carried on , is -rerj extensive , giving employment to about two hundred hands ; several buildings are , occupied , but tbe steam-power is carried by means ; of pipes from one to another . Tbe boiler which is the immediate cause of this distressing accident is situate in ihe dye-honse , occupying the whole of one side of the bnilding—a building about fourteen yards in length by ten in breadth . It Is but one story high , and three large dyo-vats oecnpj tbe por-5 tion of the fioor immediately in from of the . boiler . From this boiler , which is of the description known by the name " waggon-boiler , ** of immense sizej and more than twenty-horse power , steam was supplied to ihe various rooms in which the dyers
wrought , by whom it would be tutBed on and off at ' pleasure , as it was needed or not , for the purpose of their \ rork . It unfortunately happened that the ^ men having all finished their work aboni the same time , turned back their steam ; « id the whole of this being at once forcibly driven into the boiler , which ¦ was itself generating steam at the time , and at Sb high pressure , the consequence was a most frightful explosion , which made ' the ; whole of the building vibrate and was heard for miles around . The explosion filled the whole of the djehoasejand narrow passages around with a dense volume of steam and dust , and so great was the expansif e power of the steam and violent the shock , that the whole of the
roof was blown from the dyehouse , the windows ¦ were shattered , and a portion of the front wall thrown down . The utmost alarms as | may be sup-, posed , wa 3 excited amongst the lands in all parts of the works * who came running in crowds to ascertain tbe natnre of the accident . The inhabitants of the adjoining village , where the families of most of the ' workmen reside , also heard the report , and were filled wiih the most serious apprehensions as to the conseqnences . As soon as the hot steam and dust had so far subsided as to admit of access to the dye-: bonse , Mr . Smith , the manager , accompanied by ; some of the hands , ventured into- the wreck of the building 10 ascertain the extent of the calamity . The scene which there met their oves wasfabsolutely
frightful . One poor fellow named William Morris was found stretched on the floor upon his back writhing in the utmost sgonies from the effects of the boiling hot steam , which , had scalded him aU over , and insomeoarts of the face and head had shrivelled off ihB skin and flesh , and laid bare the bones and muscles . No time was lost in getting him removed to his house , vrhere he was promptly attended by a surgeon from . Hewton-heath . The remedies usually applied in such cases were resorted to , but his case was desperate , and he expired after lingering a few hours in great torment . Ho ' has left a wife , but no children . Another of the suPferers , named Wm , Allen , who was just within the had been
bnHdingTvhenthe explosion occurred , caugh ^ by the steam as he was making his escape from the door , and he is dreadfully scalded on the back , headj and legs . Tbe application of the usual remedies has in his case been attended -with a more favourable result , and hopes are entertained of hiB recovery ; The rest of the men employed in ihe building , ¦ whose names we have not learned , escaped with p eater or less injury , but none of them suffered so severely as the man named above . As soon as was practic-r able , an examination of the boiler was instituted , to ascertain the cause of the accident . OnUie Bteam being shnt out from the dye-shops , it appears to have , returned with . great force along the pipes , into the bodv of the boiler , which * ras half filled with svaterj
and there exerting its expansive force , « caused a tremendonsrentatthe bottom of the toiler , on the side next the dye vats , forcing the rivets asunderi and &BO cauaug lie V 7 hole of that side of the boiler tobrflge orit considerabl y . The internal stays , which materially contribute to the strength of boilers , al--though of ^ reat thickness , had been ruptured by the force of fiie steam ; and thiB being tho case , the lamira or side plates of the boiler opposed bnt a slight obstacle to the explosion . The rent is _ p > - wards of a yard in lengtti , and heje the boihnjs -water and hot steam rushed out with the most fear--fnl violence , in a moment filling the dye-house _ with rtbe
