General GREY, sch.)to he succeeds, is brother to Earl GREY. Sir GEORGE NUGENT, the newly appointed COM. m a nder-in•Cliief in India, is a man of the most en- gaging and conciliatory manners : he formerly com manded in chief at Jamaica, and in the western district.

The house of Mr. Bisset, of Hod Dricl7.o, near Colnbro.ik, was entered by four villains on S iturday night. Mr. B. was first alarmed by their bursting open his bed-room door ; when sone of :hem, with a pistol and a dark lanthorn, demanded to know where" his property was deposited. Some resistance was of fered ; when a blow from a bludgeon laid Mr. B. senseless on the floor ; and on his wife vociferating for two men servants, she was bound to the bedstead. land commanded not to speak, at the peril of imtant death. The robbers got a booty of notes, cash, plate, &c. to the amount of £lBO, with which they escaped. On Saturday night, the Gth inst. a daring attempt was made to rob the bleach-field of Mr. R. Clarke, near Carlisle. About 10 o'clock the watchman, be ing alarmed by the barking of a dog which was chain ed, turned out of his box ; when be observed, at about 50 yards distance, two men drawing up from the grass .each a piece of cotton cloth. They continued their employment as he advanced towards them ; when having got pretty near, as he was ()singing his musket to his shoulder, he heard the report of a gun, and found himself struck with the shot. He then lev,llel at the two villains in sight ; who, perceiving that he had oat fallen, 4:d; and, his piece twice ;n ising fire, ef fected their escape. The moon shining very brightly, he could distinctly chset ve the appearance of the two men, but the third villain escaped his observation al together, being probably concealed by the neighbour ing hedge. The most extraordinary part of this be. siness is the almost miraculous escai.e of the watch man. A considerable part of the upper leather of one shoe was shot away, one of the legs of his trow 4 sers was perforated by slugs, and 'yet scarcely was hitt skin grazed. Either the same, or another set of de , predators, succeeded about a fortnight before in care rying off three pieces of cotton cloth. A few days ago, a commercial vavtlltar from Eng fand was robbed,in the town of Paisley; of his pocket book, containing accounts and business memorandurnt, besides bills and bank-notes, to the amount of £l.OO.

The following melancholy accident took place at Aberdeen about a fortnight age. Some young men having unguardedly gone to sea, on a shooting part with a small yawl, while a heavy swell was coming on shore, in the eagerness of their amusement, and unconscious of danger, found thernselves, oaring, to the ebb tide and high sea, engaged with the breakers. After some tinskilfel and unsuccessful exertion by'the party to regain the harbour, one of the four persons was, by a heave of the sea, canted our of the yawl, which was overset by the succeeding wave, when two more of them were thrown into the sea, where, after 6 ` some severe but ineffectnal struggling, they soon ens ! appeared, and were unfortunately drowned. The sur. vivor, whose situation at this time appeared hopeless,. having cliang very hard to the yawl, after e%peticiwing the greatest difficulty, and being frequ—ntly bairk4 amongst the surge, was rescued from his perilous si tuation, by a number of people who witnessed the dis tressing scene, and, plunging from the beach into the water, brought him to shore when nearly exhausted.
