The evidence airilist the prisoners was precisely the same as we gave in our last. The facts implicating Smith and Weston were the finding a purse on the Milner, and three guineas on the latter. Mrs. Hamilton could nut swear positively to the one or the other. Smith's I.dullady said, she had seen such a purse in his possession time weeks before the robbery WAS com mitted. The Lord Chief Baron summed up the evidence with great minuteness, mid remarked upon the deficiency of the evidence against Smith and %Veston.

A letter from Vienna dated the 16th, says— We learn from Passau, under the date of the 3d. that a secret association has been discovered there. among the workmen of the dillerent trades, who meet regularly among the tombs of the Old Capu chin Convent. About thirty of them have been arrested ; and from their examination, it appears that they had gone so far as to form a kind of secret fraternity, by which they were pledged by mutual defence to the last extremity, everywhere and under all circumstances. They were bound by an oath, in the taking of which they drank out of a skull. Some of thent had da:7gers, and they called them selves the Black Brola.o es.

Extract of a letter from the Dominica Chronicle, Feb. 11 :—" The ship Kale, of London, Captain Itudge, on her return from 13erbice to Halifax, was scuttled at sea by the crew, who had forced the Captain, some time before, to leave the ship in a boat, with very little provisions and no comp:ass, at a great distance from land.

The men had cleared their way to provincial celebrity in many turns-up, and if not scientiac enough to figure in London ring, bravery was not wanting in either of the men. The match was for forty guineas, and Granger was the favourite at 5 and 6 to 4.
