Esq. of Truro, were running a hare on the Dawns in the neighbour hood of Chacewater. On crossing Chaceseater Mine, the hate jumpedinto a shaft, 40 fathoms deep, and . *as followed by nine of the pack. Every exertion was immediately made to rescue the animals from their dreadful situation ; .but on getting to them, seven of the nine that plunged into the shaft were found dead at the bottom ; the other two were much injured. Wednesday. one of the fine fallow bucks, presented by Mr. LONGI WILLIRLEY to CHARLES SHARD, Esq. was turned .out before his harriers, from a cover at Warfield. The deer took off in a gallant style towards Binfield Manor House. was there headed, and, crossing over Priestwood Common, mole his point for Bracknell. Leaving Brackuell on the left, he gained Ascot Heath race course, at %%Well place some of the four year old horses thought is Later to go home. Atter crossing the enclosures at Sunning-hid, he faced the open country, and steering his course over King's Beach Bill to Bioomhill Hut, crossed the Bagsliot-road ; and, leaving Chobliam-park, on the right, took the direction for Chertsey, between which place and.Cholsham he was run into by the hounds.

Last week a lure, which wai hard pressed by the hounds, fled into the house of the Rev. Mr. Butcher, of Ropsley, and, running up stairs, was followed by her pursuers, and killed under the bed of the Rev. Gentleman. The sportsmen resented poor puss to Mr. Butcher, as some compensation for her abrupt intrusion. The body of a large tox, deprived of its head and one foot, was touod in Mr. W d's fold-yard, at Low Newton, near Durham, on Friday se nnight, and there is reason to believe that reynard, in his attempt to rob the hen.hou4e, had been destroyed by a sow of uncommon teroc;ty, which was at large inthe yard; Monday last, an inquest was taken at Houghton, Hunts, on view/ of the body of William Beetles, aged 26, a farmer's horse-keeper, who, while braiding the tail of one of his - mastLr's horses, in the stable, receiv ed a mortal kick on the abdomen from a blind mare which was standing alongside the horse.

They were found, at some distance on the road-side, in a bruisedand dreadful state, and wholly insensible. They were immediately conveyed hOrne. No hopes are entertained of the recovery of Mrs. ELGAR. TOR ABBEY Or BURY ST. EDNIUNDS.—This ancient Abbey was founded by Sigebert, King of the East Angles. The gallery is a remarkable specimen of Saxon architecture, and was bulk by Canute the Great. On the 20th of February, 1772, some work men discovered a leaden ceffin amidst the adjacent ruins, fotmed according to the ancient custom, alter the human shape. An embalmed body, fresh as when interred, was found enclosed therein, the nails on the hands of which were perfect, and the hair of a chesnut brown colour; the body was covered with a pickle, and wrapped up in a sear-cloth. A surgeon of the town after examining it, made an incision in 'the breast, and declared that the flesh cut as firm as that ofany newly-deceased subject, and that there was , • a sanguine kind of liquid issuing from the cut.

Yesterday Mr. Potaaaiex, in the case of Mr. Zahap fennen and the Magistrates at Winchester (see :hie Paler of Thursday tut), put ii, an affidavit from Thri. !SRas Woodham, Deputy Clerk • Li.' Peace for the scanty of Sonthampton, setting forth that the Ins(.l vont was examined by the Magistrates on the 3d ilOSlent, before wliom it appeared that he was a fo reigner, holding a Lieutenant's Commission in D.• Meuron's corps, now in British pay in Upper Canada; and that a parr of his debts accrued for goods sup plied to that corps, for which the Lieutenant, • by stoppages from die men, had, to a cc:cant extent, re ceived the amount. The affidavit also set forth, that Mr. Zahapfennen had, before the Qaarter Sessions, consented to make the assignment out of his pay, which it was now sought to rescind. Mr. Balm, in reply, admitted that the Insolvent was an alien, born at Dusselbourg, on the Lower Rhine. He had, • however, served his Majesty for a period of 18 years, both in Europe and India ; it was, therefore, hard to consider him as a foreigner after such a length of service. • Mr. Pou.ocK observed, that the Insolvent was con- Tessedly a foreigiser, and the Court was consequently competent to affix any term it thought proper to his discharge. But in this case, the party himself had actually consented to the terms, for the general be nefit of his creditors. Besides, in the debt for goods *applied to his corps, the money had in great part gone into his own pocket, though the creditors re mained unpaid. Mr. BARRY animadverted on this statement, and mid, that from a reference to the account of the party, it would appear, that out of £9OO nearly seven had been paid, and for this balance, the Offi cer's pay, little more than 6s. a day, pas to be put in requisition. The Court, in pronouncing judgment, observed, that a regular certificate of the adjudication of the Quarter Sessions at Winchester, on the pd January, in this case, had been transmitted, and was then en racord. From th;s it appeared, that the condition of the Insolvent's discharge was, the appropriation of a moiety of his pay for the benefit of his creditors. 'Hie Insolvent now applied to have this condition rescin ded, upon the ground that the Court had no legal power to annex such a condition to his discharge. Now, by a reference to the Act, it would be found,l that the 27th section expressly authorised the Court ' to recommend to the Paymaster of the Forces a suit able distribution of the pay of any Officer in the ser vice, for the benefit of his creditors. It was the same in the Naval Department, and also in the case cl beneficed clergymen. But the Court was at the same time free to confess, that this power did not ex tend beyond the act of recommendation, and that no jurisdiction tinder the Act could, ,terse, make an as signment of this kind in the case of a British Otlict.r, or Clergyman, according to the 27th clause. The case was, however, quite different, when the Insolvent was not a natural born subject of these realms, and the 51st section of the Act invested the Court with , very ample powers of making his discharge condi tional, by providing ulterior security for his existing creditors—and from the ,affidavit of the Deputy Clerk a the Peace at Winchester, it appeared that it was under this clause only the Quarter Sessions hat! imposed the condition—a condition fortified by the material fact of the party himself having consented to the terms imposed upon him. Under these cir cumstances, the Court was fully prepared to affum the adjudication of the Quarter Sessions, and to Jis• ' miss the application for an alteration in ity conditions. Mr. BARRY, for the Insolvent, then tendered. his acquiescence to conditions which it was found impos sible to rescind. • BURGLARY. —The following circumstance should proven caution to servants in general --The family of a Gentleman, residing in Smith -street, Westmin ster, going out to dinner on Wednesday, and leaving no person m the house except a female servant, she took advantage of what she considered a favourA Sic opportunity to visit a servant in the neighbourhood, and on her return, after an absence of two hours, she discovered, to her utter dismay, that during her ab sence some villains had entered the house by me ini of false keys, and : hid conveyed away books, plAtt., pictures, and various other portable valuable pro perty, to a very considerable amount. --, 1111 mitAkErt PER (but smittliftEl.D MAIMS f, ,ANUAR Y Beti Od m SsVtal 6 , 04 mi i ftnn 4r od to 5. 6 t .; v , rk o i Items 620-a A tteep y A ar ii !l D l. s am i.R bs .A 3 w ,4 , :;o -l` lir a to Afieidow Hay 41 Os to 31 Us CiOlter si 4 Vs to 41 143.
