MURDERERS of MR. MARR'S FAMILY. - It is stated by a Gentleman who left Kirkwall, in Orkney, on Wednesday se'nnight, that immediately before his departure, information was lodged with R. Nicholson, Esq Sheriff substitute of the county, that a sailor on board a ship of war at Stromness, had betrayed great disquietude of mind, and was overheard speaking to himself of Mr. Marr and his family; and, upon being questioned, had acknowledged accession to the murder. Mr. N. instantly caused the man to be carried to Kirkwall, for examination before him. At first he refused to give any information; but the Sheriff-substitute at last got him to confess, that he was one of the actual murderers; and that there were three others. He also said, that ever since the horrid deed, he had been haunted by the deepest remorse and horror of conscience, and that he frequently imagined he heard Mr. Marr's ghost commanding him to give himself up to justice. He is now secured in Kirkwell gaol.

They fought 13 severe rounds, in a 20 feet ring. Both parties were much beaten, but the victory was obtained by Power. The battle excited much attention and high betting among the amateurs, and Carter displayed such great courage and powers, that they declare he will when practice has given him a little more science be at the head of the profession.
MURDER of LIEUTENANT JOHNSON.- A few days ago one Roberts was apprehended near Greenwich, on a charge of house-breaking, and taken before a county Magistrate, when he intimated that he could give some information respecting the murder of Lieut. Johnson. In consequence he was conducted to Union-Hall, where he stated the following particulars:- On the night on which the murder took place, he and three other men, named Mellon, Butler, and Grimes, had agreed to go out and rob somebody. They called in at the Red Cap public-house, in Kent-street, and whilst they were there, Lieut. Johnson, accompanied by a young woman, came in, and had some liquor at the bar, in paying for which, the Lieutenant displayed several bank notes. Having previously heard him say that he was going to Deptford, they determined to way-lay him, and for that purpose they quitted the house. - When near the Five Bells, they heard him coming, and immediately prepared to attack him. Mellon had a large bludgeon, with which he knocked the Lieutenant down. His pockets were then rifled of his money and a gold watch, but as he shewed symptoms of returning animation, Mellon and Butler proposed to murder him. This was opposed by the prisoner and Grimes, who retired to a distance. The other two, however, persevered in their intent. The unfortunate victim made great resistance, but they at length effected their purpose, by cutting his throat. He had put up his hands to defend himself, and received several cuts upon them. When they found he was quite dead, they dragged the body through a gap in the hedge, and threw it into a ditch. They then returned to town, and went to the house of ill-fame in Tooley-street, where they passed the night with prostitutes. Here they divided their booty, amounting to �38. The watch was given to one of the girls, for her to dispose of. Mellon had a jacket on, and Butler a coat, the sleeves to which were bloody. These, therefore, were burnt, and the prisoner went to an old cloths shop in the neighbourhood, and bought two coats for them; after this they separated. At the time Lieut. Johnson was knocked down his hat fell off; this the prisoner had taken up, and preserved ever since, as well as the knife which was used to cut his throat, and which he found, on going to the spot next day, thrown into the mud. Whether the knife had belonged to Butler or Mellon, he could not tell, but he preserved both that and the hat carefully, having always contemplated this discovery, and considering these things would prove strongly corroborative of his testimony. The hat was produced, and by the vigilance of the Officers, Mellon is in custody. They were both remanded for a future examination.

On Friday morning, about four o'clock, the miners employed in excavating the Tunnel under the river Severn, at Newnham, discovered a small breach, through which the water issued - This for a moment they conceived was occasioned by a spring, but the aperture increasing, they were instantly aware of their danger, and had barely time to be drawn up before the water filled the tunnel.- This undertaking was completed to the extent of 226 yards, of the breadth of 12 feet, and 13 feet high.
CAUTION.- The ill effect of suppressing the common efforts of nature was proved in a melancholy instance, which occurred on Sunday last. Mr. Tulmer, of Kennington, being at church, was, during the sermon, suddenly seized with an inclination to sneeze - not wishing to disturb the congregation, he suddenly suppressed the effort, and the revulsion of his nerves was such that a blood vessel was burst in his lungs. He was instantly seized with dimness, and fell to the ground. On being taken up, a considerable quantity of blood came from his mouth. He was conducted to his own house, and, in defiance of the best surgical assistance, died on Tuesday evening.
William Hall, convicted at the late Assizes at Maidstone of having assisted three French prisoners of war, who had broken their parole of honour, in making their escape from this country, was sentenced to pay a fine of �50 and to be imprisoned two years in Maidstone Gaol.
Edward Olliott, convicted of assisting French prisoners in their escape from Ashburton, was brought up, but appearing to be in a dying state, the Solicitor General consented to his going at large on own recognizances, that he might end his miserable days in the bosom of his family.
MURDER. - John M'Cririe, tenant in Halferne, in the parish of Crossmichael, near Castle Douglas, was found murdered in a field adjoining to his house, between nine and ten o'clock on Friday se'nnight. His skull was fractured as if by the blows of a stone, and several paces from the place where the body lay, a quantity of blood was discovered. The particulars of his horrid transaction are not known; but suspicions strongly attach to a man of the name of James M'Lellan, whose farm of Ringanwhen is contiguous to that of Halferne. It is said that the parties had been mutually irritated by the trespassing of each others cattle on their respective possessions, and that angry words had passed between them; and it is known, that when M'Cririe, who had been summoned to attend for the trespass at Castle Douglas, when out after breakfast to see if his cattle were in their proper pasture, Mr. M'Lellan was labouring with his spade on the confines of his farm, in the immediate neighbourhood of the field where the body was found. The unfortunate survivor, upon his going home, told his family that he had quarrelled with M'Cririe, and he believed that he had hurt him severely; and in about a minute after, he said, in seemingly great agitation, he doubted he was killed, and desired them to go and inform his family where he was. While he was doing this he absconded, and was seen wading through the river Dee, about one o'clock on the day of the murder. Though the most active means are employed for his apprehension, he has not since been heard of. A report indeed has been spread, that he had drowned himself, but this seems to be unfounded.
