_ HOME.-.A SONG. IT JANIS WHIMSY, 114. V! the best spot on earth for delight to be found, Is at home, were with joy our affection is crowned, Where the wife of our bosom still meets us with smiles, And the mirth of our children each sorrow beguiles! In the walks of ambition with pouter and with fame, We may shine in full pomp and establish a name; Bet the flower of content in the soul will not bloom, Unless it first springs from our comforts at home! When disease overtakes as and wealth flies away, When foes triumph o'er us and flatterers betray ; Ah ! where shall we find the true cordial of life, But at home, in th' endearments of children and wife! Whenever my sum of contentment is low, When a bankrupt in bliss and embarrass'd with woe, At home T still find in the charms that are there, A fund that oerpys•and discharges my care! Yesterday the neighbourhood of Thames-street was "thrown into consternation, by the report that a murder was committed somewhere about Dowgate Hill. An ac tive day-patrol, named Aldred, in passing near the pump in the Chequer-yard,Dowgate-hill, observed some marks of blood. On going up close to the pump, he observed 'footsteps of blood, and in one place was a large quantity of blood. He followed the tracks, which %vete quite palpable, from the pump down a narrow paved court leading into Thames -street, and down a passage close to Calvert's brewery, opening into Allhallows Wharf. 'The passage from Thames-street to the wharf is parti cularly lonely, and the patrol upon approaching the river supposed that whoever went 'towards it, in the condition in which the bleeding person must have been, could not have returned. He plainly saw the mark of a right foot, over which blood must have flowed most copiously all along, from a distance of 400 or 500 yards. 'The track of a left foot was not at all perceivable in all that distance, and the'right footstep was every where' seen directed towards the water. Upon passing on to the stairs, the tracks were not quite so palpable to • Aldred ; but when he reached the steps he saw them I again, and upon looking into a large barge. which lay up close to the wharf, he saw what lett no doubt on his mind that a wounded person had walked or been car ' tied into it. At the bottom, up in a corner, near the 'after part of the barge, which was unloaded, was a large quantity of blood. A large tarpaulin, upon which there was also much blood, lay at the bottom. The •patrol immediitely juniped on board and searched the cabins, fore and aft, suspecting that the sufferer was somewhere about the barge. He soon satisfied himself that nobody was lying on board. Two large oars, which lay extended from the deck of the barge to the bottom, were marked with blood ; and it would appear . • that the wounded person, upon reaching the bottom of the barge, by means of these oars, remained there for sometime, the quantity of blood that was seen in the hotd of the barge being at least between two and three pounds. it was between seven and eight o'clock in the morn• fog when Aldred tracked those marks of blood, and he proceeded to make every inquiry in the neighbourhood. A report prevailed that a quarrel had taken place be- tw•een two - men at a public-house near the spot where the trump stands, and that one of the patties got in the scuffle a bloody nnse,but all the App.rent circumstanoes of tire 'case rut it beyond belief that such a scuffle could have led to the effusion of so much blood ; be sides, the patrol learned that the disputants were com pletely reconciled. A suspicion also attached to one or other of the brothels in E:bow-lane. although the officers declare that no rows took place in either of the three receptacles in that place. it was however thought necessary not to pass them by in an inquiry of such a nature. Upon the strictest exoniort;on it was found, that nothing of a suspicious nature could beiraced to the bad houses in the lane. Mr. Cope, the marshal, upon hearing the report nar rowly examined all the ground, but he ascertained nothing more. He ordered that the river should be dragged around the barge, under the impression that the body of a child might be found near the spot. The, river was dragged for a considerable time, but in vain. 'The stream, however, in this part of the Thames, is excessively strong, and capable of beating down along i with it a much greater weight than the body of an 'infant. The general suspicion which existed during the greater part of the day was, that the person who was ounded had been so desperately maimed, as to seek the most speedy and effectual means of getting rid of life altogether, by plunging into the water, or that *child murder had been committed. It is extraordinary that a watchman whose duty•it is to watch close to the stairs of Allhallows-wharf, observ ed the footmarks of blood on the night before at nine oclock, and was told by another that they %vete to be seen earlier, and yet no noise was mate about the circum stance until Aldred took notice of the extraordinary fact of the great effusion of blood, at such a place and time. It appears that the barge arrived at the wharf on Wediii;day evening, at about six o'clock, so that the wounded person mti:t have been in it in the dark. There was no blood mark perceptible to our reporter upon the side of the barge, over which if the sufferer intended to destroy himself, he would movt probably have endea• vouivd to throw himself. Nor were there any traces either in the barge or along the two lanes from which it could be inferred that one person had been struggling with another. Of the numbers of persons vicho were questioned as to whether any noises of a suspicious na ture were heard in the course of the night, no more thanl one was said to have heard any alarm. That alarfh was stated to have been given near the passage leadirig to Allhallows-wharf, at about one o'clock in the morn iug, and was the cry of gi Murder 1" attended by screams; anal we understand that the person who heard the cry said, that he was afraid to go out and inquire about hat might have occurred. Severe shocks of an earthquake were felt on the 15th ult. at Messina, and on the oppo.ite coast of Calabria. Yesterday afternoon, a fine little boy playing on the hank of the Regent's Canal, near the Tunnel, uraottu nately fell into the water. A poor man, named Robert Watts, immediately rushed in to his assistance, and suc ceeded, with some difficulty, in getting him out. Medi • cal aid was procured, and the child soon began to re vive, and was taken to Islington workhouse, where-he ,is 'doing well. Poor Watts was so benumbed by the intense coldness of the water, that he has been seized with locked jaw, and his life is considered in danger. '• witness under examination in an Irish Court of Jus doe the other day, had just stated that be was suddenly roused from his slumbers by a blow on the head. And how did you find romeselfr asked the examining Counsel. " Fast asleep," replied die witness. DUM#RITA A Veiv: 11: On.the evening of Monday th e 6W Instant. kman and woman whose faces had long been familiar at Fairs, were observed returning from the Leadhills market. whither they had been exercising their calling of Rowley Pow/ey or nine pin gamblers. Their way lay over A mountainous ridge, and the air,, which was sharp and frosty in the valleys, find particularly cold and biting on the - till% they jogged on, stimulated by the whisky they had drank during the day; the cold how ever increased as the night advanced, and on reaching Wantickhead they were fain to take shelter in the " Engine Pit•house." Here their quarters were pretty comfortable, at least as compared with the open heath ; but the man felt a craving for more whisky, and ordered his companion to bring him a supply from the nearest Toll bar, which, as he knew, lay at no great distance. I The unfortunate woman was about to obey her lord's behests, but in retiring from the Pk-house she mistook the door by which she entered, groped her way out by la wrong one, and actually stepped into the mouth of a mine upwards of 60 fathoms deep. The plunge was dreadful ; one ftarful shriek proclaimed the catastrophe , and the consciousness of danger,' and then death and darkness closed for ever over. their miserable victim.— The lifeless body was found next morning at sir o'closk but we are not informed how the man passed the night,) or with what feelings he communicated to others the tidings of an event in a great measure occasioned by his . insatiable thirst for ardent spirits. Mr. Pagan of Curriestanes, has a haystack at Starry heugh, on the Castle Douglas road ; and yesterday weeek a man was discovered lying at the farther end of it in a state of the most dreadful destitution. Sleeping and waking he had spent tax days and seven nights at the said secluded spot, with no other shelter from the rain and the wind, save what was afforded by a layer of hay. While his strength permitted, he occasionally crawled to the side of a ditch, and devoured chicken weed, and when this resource failed him, he was actually compelled by the cravings of hunger, to chew and swal low small quantities of hay. This is the man's own statement, and is borne out by so many collateral cir cumstances, that . Mr. Pagan and others, have no doubt whatever of its truth. He was seen on the Tuesday or Wednesday preceding, by the *meant of a drover, who bad cattle in the Park, but.no attempt was made to dis turb him, from an impression that he was asleep from the effects of liquor. His frame was spent to the last degree of emaciation, and to use the words of Mrs. Pagan, " he was so light that an old and feeble woman might have lifted him in her arms like a little child."— Although decently dressed, he had no money, and as he could not bring himself to solicit charity, he was slowly awaiting the approach of death, in ore of its most painful and lingering forms. It was on Monday week that the frost commenced, and if lie had remained without another night, it is more than probable that cold, acting as the ally of hunger, would have termi nated his sufferings before the morning. But an all kind - Nova:re:ace overruled and averted that appoint ment; and the sufferer was discovered by John Grier son, who, though a poor man, has as kind a heart'as ever warmed a human bc;som. By his exertions a cart was procured, and the man conveyed to Curriesranes, where the most humane attentions were paid to him by, the family. His feet were washed, his sores dressed, and wine and other restoratives administered in such quantities as his situation required; and when he had recovered so lar as to tell his story, poor Grierson, whet has experienced much of the hardships of life himself, was so much affected, that he went to his master, and with tears in his eyes burrowed a shilling - for the man's behoof.' Notice of the circumstance was sent to the Rev. Mr. Thorburn, and although he could not visit the sufferer at the time, he desired that every care might be taken of hint, and generously offered to defray all expenses. In the evening a comfortable lodging was procured in Maxwelhown, where the man now lies in a convalescent state. All the' neighbours became inte rested in his fate, and Mr. Fleming in particular has been unceasing in his attentions. The account the man gives of himself is as follows. His name is John Bar clay; he was born in Lanarkshire, and bred a sailor. For the last eight years he had sailed in a vessel belong ing to LondOn, but having been long absent from Scot land, he felt a strong desire to revis t his native country. did so, and found, to his bitter regret and disap pointment, that his friends, with one or two exceptions, were either dead or dispersed. In these citcumstances, be was anxious to return to London, and proceeded to Greenock, in the hope of being allowed to work his passage in some vestel bound to the Thames. Being disappointed in this he walked to Portpatrick ; was dis appointed a second time from the state of the weather, and then formed the resolution of walking to Dam fries, crossing the S lway in a coal-boat, and endea vouring to procure a passage from Maryport or White haven. While on the road he was attacked with a severe bowel complaint, which frequently compelled him to sit down, and by the time he arrived at the nine-mile toll-bar, he was, to use his own expressive words, completely "done up." There he parted with the last farthing lie possessed in the world for a little bread and milk, and that was the only suitable suste nance be tasted for the long period of seven days.— Though his feet were blistered to a shocking degree, he still crawled onward the best way h.: could, and on ob serving the hay-stack at Starryleugh, he repaired to its side, made a bed on the cold ground,and determined to die rather than beg. To this painful recital we have only to add, that Mr. B irclay has every appearance of being a respectable man: He has evidently seen better days; and his story is believed by all who have con versed with him. His wife died in childbed several years ego, and be has no relations who are in a situa tion to assist him ' or to whom he chose to m a k e hi s poverty known. On Saturday last he felt very unwell, but as good hopes are entertained of his ultimate reco very, we trust the humane and charitable will come for ward and afford him the means of pursuing his journey comfortably to London. We understand that Mr. , Fleming, merchant, has been laudably active in procur ing subscriptions in his behalf. The New York Papers state, that France is determined to carry most strictly into operation the Navigation Laws lately adopted in that country. The American Consul at Havre has notified to the Secretary of State at Washington, that if American vessels ever touch in England or Ireland (according to the general routine of trade) for orders, their cargoes will not be allowed ' for consumption in France at the low rate of duty levied on the produce of America coming direct from the United States. A correspondence on this subject ' with the Authorities at Paris had taken place, and the answer was decisive, that the intercourse must be direct, r or the advantages of trade held out by Fntuce must cease., Morning, a Gentleman of very ..or, loped in a splendid rocquelaire, with his Ups adoreed with must. chins, a bait-pay Captain, we believe, was brought up from the watchbouse, charged with creating a great disturbance at the house of Mr. Cook, in Eagle-street, lied Lion-square, last night at ten o'clock. Mr. Cook, who is a native of Germany, and who speaks broke* .English, stated that his wife was an English Lady, Which seemed to displease the defendant, who occupied an apartment in his house. Last night, he was awoke by a great noise on the stairs, and the nice of his wife came running to him, saying the Captain was ill using her aunt. lie ran out immediately, and heard the defendant call his wife a d—•d English b—h, and that she had killed her first husband, and would shortly be the death of the second. Complainuit asked the meaning of it all? whereupon he, the defendant, took up a chair, and made a violent blow at his head, but fortunately it missed him, or serious might have been the consequences. Ills conduct was like a mad man, and it was found necessary to give him in charge to the watchman. It turned ont that the dispute arose respecting some arrears of rent due to the complainant by the defendant, and the IlatarraaTt, under all the circumstances, dismissed the complaint. ANSION-HOUSE. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. HATTON-GA RDEN—(Tins My). . fa4hionar exterior, 'tree- I'm; A Calm. Joan.—A young woman. of respectable appearance and good address , drove up to the Mansion House in a hackney coach en Monday last, before the public business commenced, and re quested to be allowed to make a communication of great importance to the LORD MAYOR. " Fogg, the Marshalman, who happened to he In attendance, was struck with the appearance of the Lady, who was dressed in white muslin, very low, as the milliners call it, had a pearl necklace round her neck, white satin shoes, and a large plume of feathers fastened to her head by a gold band. The driver of the hackney coach was decorated with white favours, and several persons ga thered about the gates of the Mansion House, attracted brat ea tra tudinary an axhibition. The Marshalman believed that his appli cant was insane until he was informed that she expected to be united to a Gentleman who had paid his addresses to her for some time. He immediately introduced her to Mr. Hobler, without, mentioning that Gentleman's name to her. Mr. Hobler, judging from her address that the Lady was a Frenchwoman, addressed her in that language, and he Was not un deceived until she had concluded her story, which was as follows About two years ago she became acquainted with a Gentleman of respectable connexion,. He resided in a house in which she used to give lessons to a young Lady in music and French, and was ex tremely attentive to her. The sincerity of his declarations she however doubted, but he persevered in soliciting her hand in mar riap so obstinately, and for so lung a time, that her friends thought It imprudent, as well as cruel in her, fur be appeared to be a good match for a woman who was not altogether independent, to persist in her refusal. She therefore listened to his proposals, and they associated together as persons destined fur one another. On the day before the Lord Mayor's Feast. he told her that he would procure a card for her, and introduce her to his Lordship, with whom he was on terms of great intimacy, as his intended. He, however, afterwards said, that he had tailed in his attempt to obtain the card, but that he was himself to dine with his Lordship. and he would make arrangements for the ceremony, which should be performed in his Lordship's presence. On the day following that of the Civic Entertainment be was punctual in his ap pointment with her • and he then assured her, that he had spoken to the Chie f Magistrate at the dinner, and that the marriage should take place at the Mansion-house on Monday, between ten and eleven o'clock. Convinced that this communica tion was a candid one, she consented to accompany her lover to the house of his friend, the Lord Mayor, at the stated time. She. how ever, soon after the appointment, received a message from him, in forming her that he would meet her at the Mansion House. and requesting that she would appear there in wedding garments suitable to her coudition, and that she would not bring any money with her. " 1 I have," said she. obeyed him in all those particulars;, but I have waited is vain for him, and I fear that his object, after all, was no thing hut to hold me up to ridicule. I have, therefore, taken the liberty to speak to your Lordship on the subject." • Who Mr. Hobler told the poor girl that be was no more than the LORD Mavoa's Clerk, she was greatly embarassed, but her confusion did not continue long, fur be very feelingly mentioned his regret that she had been imposed upon. It was, he said, well for her that she had not thrown herself away upon so heart less a scoundrel, who deserved, for his scandalous conduct upon the occasion, to be whipped at the cart's tail. He then in troduced the poor young woman to the Lord Mayor, in his Lordshia's private parlour, and mentioned the leading particulars of the above account to his Lordship, who in the strongest manner expressed his indignation at the cruel trick that had been played of upon the ill treated girl, and lamented that it was not in his power to interfere. Ile added, that be would most strongly advise her to go home, and not to throw away a thought upon so heartless and contemptible a fellow. The Lady, who. was deeply impressed with the compassionate treatment she received from the Lord Mayor, said she certainly would act as she had been so paternally advised, but she departed front his Lordship's presence. evidently much wounded in her feel ings at the base conduct of the fellow who had taken such pains to make bier unhappy. We could not procure the name of the man. Mr. Holder learned from the Lady that she bad been in France front her infancy, but that she had been born in England.- GUILDHALL. Mr. Wooller attended as Solicitor to a prisoner and upon his ap. proaching the Alderman, Sir PETIt L AURI( inquired in what cha racter he appeared there, whether as the friend of the prisoner, or of Mr. Harmer? Mr. Wooller replied, he attended as a clerk to Mr. Harmer. Sir Pavas said, only Attorneys were allowed to be present at such examinations, as a matter of courtesy ; but as Mr. Woolkr had avowed himself to be Mr. tiarmer's Clerk, be would give him every latitude that he could desire, even In cross.examining the wit nesses. He put the question to Mr. Woolkr, because he was de termined not to have hi: time wasted by the interference of impro per persons. Mr. Woolkr replied, he should certainly not hate presumed to interfere, if he had not the usual claim to indulgence from the Magistrates. The Stewards of the United Britons' Friendly Society appeared to answer the complaint of the widow of John Stanbroogh, a de ceased member. Mr. Humphreys attended as solicitor for the complainant. By the Rules it is declared, that the representatives of a tree member shall be entitled to .501. at his death, and IW. more if the fonds of the Society exceed a certain amount. If a member, who shall have been free 18 years without receiving more than "five guineas, as sick allowance, shall die, his representatives shall be entitled to 801. Lesser benefits are fixed for those who have been members for shorter periods, but na larger °nee fur those who have been members over 18 years. John Stanbrough had belonged to the Society 28 years, and contributed about 1404 He never became burthensome to the fuads until the last eighteen weeks in the course of which be received 18 guinea s , at 11. I s . p er week, and it was now come i g s. by the Society, that according to the lett e r o f their articles, lb ' was only due in cue he had died in the pre cise 18th year o memiiirrship, and that after that time, his re presentatives, not being specially assured any particular additional benefit, could only claim the 50/. secured to all members. Solicitor for the complainant contended, that if J. Stanbrough would have been entitled te 801. for refraining from taking relief for 18 years, he was at least entitled to as much torso refraining ' above 26 years. The Society seemed to think, that the !anger a man pays without receiving, the less be • was entitled to, for they gave widows of members fur 15 years but 701. and memb ers for shorter periods lesser sums, down_to_sol. Sir PITS& Liman said, that the intention of the chuse.mater was, no doubt, that a person who had not drawn over 51. in the course of 18 years and upwards, should receive 301. in addition to the ordinary 501. but by the wording of the clause, members who did not draw SI. in the first 18 years were entitled to the greatest benefit, however much they might drain the box after that period. Mr. Alderman Asian- concurred; and the Club was ordered to pay the widow 801. She would have had the 101. on the amount of the Society's stock but for some other awkwardness In the ar rangement of the clause. . BOW-STREET. After the usual hours of sitting yesterdaj s e ei rning, Ledbetter, the Inspector of Night Police, came to th e in a coach, bring ing with hint a man on a charge of having committed a burglary at Mr. Roper's, at Branford, under very extraordinary circumstances: The name given by the prisoner was Henry Yacht", but his real name is Said to be Neeney. Mr. Roper deposed, that on Friday, the 3d Inst. be had been dining in London with some friends, and had taken rather too much wine. He reached Brentferd about half-past twelve o'clock at night, and, upon arriving at the outer gate of hi, wharf, on the land side, be found the bolt had been removed, evidently by force, and the gate standing open • and having armed himself with a hugt ,stick, ornamented wi th three or four loge knots, (tltt nick was her: produced by Mr. ROpetcand i ffettkenfisitii'Veltsola was,) he proceeded to the counting-bow. lle f. bad been forced, and the door was ajar. Rntering found two men, one of whom was the prisoner, st over his iron chest, and very busily engaged in exam. tents. ' Ile went directly up to them, and they st 7 affright, and stared stupidly at him. He struck one lentty, and wounded his head, but they contrived escape. Mr. Roper having given information at this , description of thirmen, the prisoner was apprehended. He new denial the charge, but was remanded till "- TOWN-HALt e A ruffianly-looking lamplighter was charged with liable Spanish She am—William Anderson stated, that pkyed by Mr. Douly, of Rotherhithe, to put th e ass 1 on board Captain Soper's ship in the West India Ducks, It was sent as a present, and that while it was passing street the brutal biped, in the shyer spirit of wantonness, stabbed st in the flank with his scissors, inflicting a wound two inches deep, fut which act of ruffianism the Magistrate very properly committed him to prison tor three months, which penance we hope will have its due effect on his' barbarous mind, and that he will come out a better man. LA M BETH-STREET. . Hosts MANIMPACTOCCO Eenuiseaux.--Last night Mrs. Sitoger ap. ?eared to swear an affidavit; and on Mr. %Ares salting its ob. tect, she announced herself to be the wife of the showman, now is custody at Plysnouth, for the metamorphosis of two infants, sup. posed to have been stolen from Whitechapel, and to whom he bait taught a mortal antipathy to cooked meats, soma carnivorous pro. penalties. and a great taste for train oil. She attended, she said, for the purpose of rebutting that part of the charge which referred to kidnapping, by producing her friend, Mr. Buttress, to sw ear, that be was present when she hired the children from their father , named Thomas, then living in Slater's-court, Rosemary-lane, to svd to her collection of curiosities. Mr. Wravv.—When you were making the bargain, did you tell their father you wanted to exhibit them as liaquimaux? Mrs. Sanger.—Yes. Mr. WyArr—How long have you been teaching them to detsw raw meat, and evince such ferocity? Mrs. Singer—Wi did of ,teach them at all, Sir. The girl is very artful, sod told do Mayor of Plymouth, we used to beat her when she spoke English ; but that is not true. bk. Wravv—But how did you manage to disgube anis t.:if e stained their skim, and pot furs on them. Buttress corroborated the statement as to the perches trots the father, and averred that the children were well treated. Mrs. ginger added, that the mother of diechlWceo , then is Plymouth workhouse, died in two days after they were transferred to them, and they were then naked, and in a wretched state. Since she had come to town, she had been looking for their father, but could not find him; and she now wished to make an affidavit that they had not been stolen, in order that her husband might be liberated. Mr. Wrarr promised, when the affidavit was properly drawn up, to have it taken.—Mrs. Sanger made her exit. SEPULTORL—The obsequies of Mr. Town, late of Bond -street, an Artist, were performed the other day at the Jews' burial ground, Mile-end. The forms observed differ widely from those of other persuasions, and the deviation appearei to and to the solem nity of the scene; externally, the axiom of the grave levelling all distinctions was carried practically into effect, the c lEn, let the rank of the deceased be what it may, being formed of the plainest materials, and quite unornamented. On the left side hung out a portion of the Tollis, or penitential garment, usually worn at prayer time in the Synagogue, but as to tar other decoration, or even inscription, it was altogether wanting. On the arrival of the cavalcade at the burial ground, the gates were thrown wide open, the corpse was placed on a bier, and removed to an ante-room, hung round with portions of the Jewish Liturgy, in scribed in the Hebrew character. The officiating Divine, a Mr. Piesser, of Bittleigh-street Synagogue, who was attired in a'black silk cloak, and an immense triangular cocked hat, commenced chaunting the service in a deep sonorous voice, in which he was joined by the congre gation. When this had been gone through, and a very effective guard against the unhallowed depredations of the resurrectionists affixed to the coffin, the procession moved on to the grave yard; while passing along, it stopped at certain places, where portions of the Scrip. ture were again recited, and on, its reaching the tomb, which was bult of brick, and in a shape exactly cor responding with the coin, the corpse was lowered down. When this was done, the nearest relative threw in three shovels full of earth, and distributed a dole among the poor ; after which, each of those in attend ance having performed an ablution, the ceremony ended by filling up the grave. WITCUCItAFT.—Extract of a letter from Annan : — The witchcraft mania that I wrote you of has at l as t been productive of consequences which has exposed the infatuated dupe of their phrenzical fancies to the visita tion of the law. The friends of the supposed bewitchcl, thotigh on what foundation I know not, discovered (in their own opinion) the witch, in the person of an old woman above seventy, one of the most harmless and inoffensive creatures alive, and the housekeeper of a man of at least her own age, in the immediate neigh bourhood. Un.ler.this conviction, an experiment for undoing the charm was resorted to, as extraordinary for its extravagance as disgusting for its brutality. The sister of the bewitched, a remarkably strong and active young womant, made up to the poor old object of suspicion, seized her, and in spite of her struggles, sac cceded in cutting, or, as they called it, slowing the old woman across the upper part of the bridge if her nose and both the cheeks, with a sharp knife. The wounds, I understand, were severe, though not dangerous. The poor old victim, however, made her way to Annan, and readily got, not only the girl who assaulted her, but the husband and wife apprehended, and taken before a Magistra , e, by whom they were all bound over to keep the peace, as a necessary preliminary step; but, strange to tell, the old woman and her master were also on the oath of the husband and wife, bound over to keep the peace also, althoogh they never in'one instance can be proved to have infringed ; and thus s t ands the matter at present.—Edinburgh Paper.. ii , tattedilt.'°l l e g:l. . u : t t o inn a .t.i r id e iltni tir : ti n ie 7: n : : :: : : l ::K a G t i: !, 6 l a : " ; t . s Ofiee, with i led.
