A Mr. Conolly, formerly surgeon in the city of Dublin, has been
committed on the charge of wilful murder, to the charge of the county of
Hertford, England, for shooting a constable who attempted to arrest him
in the house of captain Nestor, at Sherry hill, in the same county.--The
constable, with others, was breaking the hall door, when Mr. Conolly
