Desperate Convicts.
o— — (Per Press Association.) Sydney, Novr. 18. Constable Healey's assailants were le;?---ironed but not handcuffed. They took the keysof the irons, and having unlocked them battered the unfortunate constable with them until he was senseless. They then robbed him of £29, and having changed their prison clothes for others that were in their swags, they jumped off the train as she was slowing down, and all efforts to recapture them have proved futile ; . Healey is still in a serious condition.
