Last week, Rowland Preston, was tried and found guilty of the murder of Francis Bruce, of Longford, flirmer, and Ann Taylor, of the same place. The unfortunate persons were found murde r ed in their house, and which was plundered of every thing The evidence, though strong against the prisoner, was entirely cir cumstantial ; he made no defence on the trial, nor, previous to his execution on Monday, did he make any confession, but acknow ledged that he deserved the punishment which awaited him, and fixed the guilt on two (Alta men. SUFFOLK. Lately, Ann Arnold, was capitally convicted of the wilful murder 1 of her bastard child, a boy between four and five years old (about the foth of February last), by deliberately taking off his clothes, with the exception of his shirt, and throwing him into a pond co vered with bushes, in a field in the parish of Spexball, whereby lie was drowned ; the body was not discovered till near three weeks afterwards, in a putrid state, and then in a most extraordinary pro vidential manner, by a boy keeping sheep in the same field, who observed one of his flock looking stedfastly into the water and making a noise, which attracted him to the spot, where he at first thonzlit he saw a dead lamb in the water ; but soon afterwards he tiied to get the supposed lamb out, which was then floating, when be fonnd it was a child, upon which he gave information to his father and others, w lach led to the inhuman mother's apprehension at I fardlry, in Norfelk. The inducement to this crime appeared to be, thAat the father of a second bastard child, of whidi she was delivered about night weeks after Michaelu►as, at Howe, in Nor folk, had offered her marriage, on condition that she should induce the father of the first child, who allowed is. 6d. per week for its maintenance, to take the sole charge thereof, but this he refitsed, and she bad the cruelty to destroy it in the manner above related, although she acknowledged the poor infant feelingly. exclaimed on being stripped at the pond, " Mother, what are you going to do?' hie was sentenced to death on Friday sennight, and mime diately conveyed from Bury to Ipswich goal, apparently exhibiting penitent behaviour, amidst an immense concourse of spectators, and her body to be delivered over to the surgeons to be dissected and anatomised.
