.....4rLX.4ICGUST 21. Thursday last, a Ably son of Mr. Pape, master of the Castle Eden Inn, fell into a pond, and was not .vered until every appearance if life had ceased ; but torzunately, by the judicious and humane exer tions of Mr. Edgar, surgeon, who ?rovidentially hap pened to be in the house at the time, he was restored to - its distracted parents. Friday and 'Saturday, the bodies of two of the fishermen lost in April last, were found between Cu lerct ats and Hartley. From some cloaths that still remained on them, they are supposed to be fa .ther and son, of the name of Armstrong, who be longed to Cullercoats. In the night of Sunday the 12th inst. which was very tempestuous, with much rain, a large portion of the wall in front of Milburn-place, North Shields, gave war, and was precipitated down the Limekiln-store bank. Wednesday night, about eight o'clock, four tra vellers and their horses, crossing in the ferry-boat from South to North-Shields, had a narrow escape. The ebb-tide being very strong, swept them down the har bour, through the Narrows, to near Prior's Rock, when the rowers made a desperate effort to reach the shore, but could not. They succeeded, however, by the help of the tide, in gaining lluggiel Point (a pro minence on the Herd Sand, then dry) where, with the help of two boats which put' off to their assistance the horses and passengers were landed. The riders mounting their horses, waded through the Wheel, which was not very deep, and fortunately reached South Shields again. On the turn of the tide, the ferry-boat drifted up the harbour, when striking against a ship's bow, opposite the Pan Ash, she went to the bottom. The boat was worth £lOO. Tbursday morning an extraordinary high tide, ac companied with a boisterous north wind and very tempestuous sea, swept away about 17 yards in length of the outer wall of Clifford's fort, which 'had stood since the year 1746 : some masses of stone were car ried by the force of the water near 30 yards from the sicite of the wall. It also tore up and carried away some hundred tons of earth and gravel to the east ward of the fort, precipitated some bathing houses standing thereon into the sea, and the timbers lately laid down (by Mr. Wall) at the Lowlights, for buil. ding a vessel, were swept away, and a considerable pan lost. A number of boats were also sunk in diffe rent parts of the hart)our. Such a tide has not been known since 1767. As Mr. John Bell, of Alston, bonesetter, was on his wild home from Hexham, on Tuesday se'nnight, about two miles from the latter plate, his horse reared up, when he unfortunately checked the bridle and pulled the beast backward upon himself, by which his leg was broken in two places, and he was much Cruised in the body ; he now lies dangerously ill at his brother's house, in Hexham. Thursday an unfortunate accident happened at North Shields, occasioned by the scaffolding . of a house which was building in Bedford-street g iving way. Too many bricks having been laid upon it, the weight brought down part of the wall, and twb young men (b )th belonging to Warkworth) then at work upon it, were precipitated to the ground, and literally buried in the ruins. They were soon dug out, but one of them is so desperately bruised (particularly about the head and face) that his life is despaired of .-the other was but slightly hurt. Tuesday last, at North Shields, a foreign gentle. =an was robbed by a woman, supposed to be a sai. lor's wife (whom he had fallen in with late at night) of nine guineas, a diamond ring, and a watch.

YORK SUMMER ASSIZES. Frames Ilardcatile was indicted for burglariously entering the dwelling-house of Benjami n C un d a ll, o f Nunmonkton, off the evening of Tuesday the 31st of July last, and• stealing and taking away a titian tity of wearing apparel, two silver spoons, and other things, the property of the said Benjamin Cundall and others: and by a second count in the indictment, the prisoner was charged with stealing the said pro perty, and breaking out of the said dwelling-house therewith. Mr. RAINE stated the case, which was made out by the following evidence: Benjamin Cundall, the prosecutor, said, he lives in the parish of Nunmonkton, in the West Riding of this county, about ten miles west of York : the pri soner at the bar left his service three years ago, having lived with him five years as a servant : in his dwelling-house, in the back parlour, there is a sliding window, which used to be fastened by a gimlet.— The bureau in the parlour was fastened the night before the witness went to b'd, and no knife in it; had some bottles of gin the day before in a buffet in the parlour, also some tea and sugar, which he put in himself the day before. Witness rose next morning about half-past four o'clock ; being first up, he went into the kitchen, and was surprised at finding the door open ; 11,e saw burnt paper on the kitchen floor; he then went into the back parlour, the u inflow of which was open, and the floor covered with burnt pa per ; he missed two sheets of writing paper, two over seers'-warrants, and some newspapers. Alice Cundall, the prosecutor's wife, said, that shs. went to bed near ten o'clock in the night of the 31st of July, and left a fire in the kitchen. The day before she saw a shirt belonging to ;her son Joseph, and on Tuesday afternoon she saw two silver tea. spoons, marked A. C. lying in the back parlour win dow, which she missed next morning ; she was last in the parlour the night before, about ten o'clock ; she went to pray there directly under the window.; the slide of whi c h was pu ll e d to, b ut don ' t know whe ther it was fist. William Atkinson, servant to the prosecutor, said, be fastened the kitchen door about ten o'clock in the evening ; he put the bar across; and fastened it. Peter Gill, n boy not quite twelve years of age, being explained the nature of an oath, said he was servant to Edward Spink, in Skipbridge lane. His master called him up on The Wednesday morning, just as the clock was striking four, and the clock was forward : in going to fetch up his master's horses, he met a woman about one hundred yards from his master's house, upon the road which leads to York, which is about five miles from Robert Condall's house ; he had not seen her before, but said the pri soner was her she asked him where he was going ? He answered he was going to fetch up the horses; she asked if he could drink a glass of gin; he said no several times, but at last he did take a sup, and she gave him some spice cake and cheese, which she took out of a bundle she had upon her head. She said he was to tell their other men, if they had any, that his sweetheart had given him it. She had a pink gown on, with sleeves down to her fingers of t:►e same sort, a velvet bonnet, and a white petticoat ; she had four bottles in the basket and some meat in it, but witness did not see what sort it was : she had a large bundle upon her head, wrapt np in a check apron, and a basket .ou her arm, and went towards , York. To Questions by his Lonnsinn—Witness said his master waked him just u the clock *al. striking ; he might be about ten minutes getting up, and met the prisoner almost immediately afterwards; he did not know the clock was forward, but heard his master say so. Benjamin Cundall, the prosecutor, was again cal led ; he said he missed some cake which had currants in it; he only missed three bottles of gin, and one with some tea in it. Saturday morning following the witness came to York, and with Joseph Pardoe, found the prisoner about three o'clock in the afternoon, with two other girls, asleep tinder a hay-stack, on the east side of the York barracks. He waked her ; I said— " Fanny, Fanny, what has thou been doing i" She got up, and said she would go with me, and I should have the things again, if I would only forgive her. I told her it was then out of my power to forgive her. Witness went on the road with the prisoner and Par doe towards York, 'and when near the Castle Mills, she and Pardoe went into a house, witness stopping at the door till they brought a bundle out. She had a pink and white gown on, and also a white petticoat. He had seen the gown in his house, but cannot say how long before. Afterwards they went to a house in Jubbergate, and there searched the bundle ;—they found tea and sugar, a white petticoat, stockings, and pocket handkerchiefs. She had a grey beaver hat on. Witness then said, " I asked her if she had taken the long knife to open the desk with ? and she said she had." [Here his Lordship asked if he had made asry pro mise ? the witness said, he had not.] He produced the knife ; it was called the long knife, and, when r isoner was in his service, it lay in the kitchen. Prisoner said in the presence of wit. ness,that she got the two tea spoons out of thewindow. Joseph Pardoe, city officer, said that last Saturday ; prisoner and he went into a little huckster's shop be- I side the Castle Mills, at York, when she asked for her bundle, and a woman there gave it her ; it was in a basket, and witness took it from the prisoner. There was abottle with tea in it, some sugar, two pocket handkerchiefs, a cap, and a pair of shoes. Another girl, in the prisoner's presence, when apprehended be side the hay-stack, said to witness, " if you'll go to such a place, you'll find her velvet bonnet." Witness took that girl along with prisoner, and found a velvet bonnet. Witness took prisoner to a house in Jobber. gate, used by him generally. Told prisoner he should search her. She put her hand into her pocket, and took out two silver tea spoons. Witness told her after, she must strip ; she took off the stockings, and he gave her others out of the bundle. She pulled off a spencer, and gave it to witness, and said, " that is all I got from Mr. Cundall." She was then put into prison, and she sent to the witness to tell him where the rest of the property was ; witness went to the place and found a table-cloth, a checked apron, and a shirt ; and at another place also pointed out by the prisoner, he found a flannel petticoat, a cap, habit shirt, and a piece of new cloth. Benjamin Cundall was again called ; the two sil ver tea spoons produced by Pardoe, marked A. C. were sworn to by this witness as .his property ; one pocket handkerchief marked E. C. belonged to his daughter, the other marked J.C. belonged to his son. Alice Cundall was again called ; said they had such things as the flannel petticoat and cap, but could not swear positively to them ; but swore to the shirt as belonging to her son ; she knew it by a cut in the cloth. Elizabeth Cundall, prosecutor's daughter, said the shirt belonged to her brother, Joseph Cundall ; she made it for him ; the bonnet was her's, and it was in the house on Tuesday evening. Gilbert Crompton, Esq. of Nunmonkton, proved that Benjamin Cundall's house was'five miles distant from the place where Peter Gill met with the prisoner. His Lordship recapitulated the evidence, and the Jury found the prisoner Guilty- upon the second count in the indictment: ExsouTroxs.,--The four unhappy men left for exe cution at the late Lincoln Assizes, suffered the dread ful penalty attached to their crimes on Friday last.— After their condemnation, They behaved with the greatest propriety. Atkinson gave to Mr. Merry weather, the Governor of the Gaol, bills to the amount of £35, to be sent to Messrs. Gee and Clarke of Boston, whose right he declared it wiis ; and he lamented that that was all the restitution he was able to make. The three other unhappy men, Marshall, Sawer, and Wakelin, acknowledged the justice of their sentence; and all devoutly partook of the sa crament. At 11 o'clock the four men were brought forth from the prison into the Castle-yard, and placed in a cart. The awful procession then advanced to the usual place of execution, a little north of Lin coln. Marshall first ascended the scaffOld, Sawer next, Wakelin was third, and Atkinson last. They successively addressed a few words to the surround ing multitude. hoping that their unhappy situation would serve as an awful warning. Wakelin had been a great comfort to hi s fellow prisoners, and in the hours that the Clergyman was not with them, read to them continually. Just before the moment of the scaffold falling, Atkinson turned to shake hands with Wakelin, and said a few words—to this exertion is attributed one of the most shocking cir cumstances, which succeeded, that weever heard of. Marshall, Sawer, and Wakelin, seemed to be dead in two minutes after they were turned off; but at that time, to the inconceivable horror of all around, At kinson cried out, "Oh Gon ! Oh GOD! I cannot die—l cannot die—lift me up r' Immediately a sol dier of the G9th regiment went to him, lifted him up a little, and then, by hanging at the body, put the 'poor wretch out of his misery ! The emotion excited by such a scene can be but faintly imagined. The dreadful circumstance arose from the knot of the rope having got under the chin when Atkinson -turned to Wakelin. The corpse of Atkinson was taken from Lincoln by his friends, on Friday afternoon, to he interred near Wisbeaeh. The remains of Marshall, Sayer, and Wakelin, were buried in the Castle-yard at eight o'clock on Saturday morning, on t.he left !side of the County-hall; approaching it from the Cas tle-gatei. Wakelin's wife attended the funeral; the lunhappy woman went by the packet from Boston on, Wednesday, and took with her a coffin to receive her husband's remains. On Wednesday morning, the unfortunate Joshua Beaumont; convicted at the York Assizes of a rape and murder, was ledlo the fatal tree at the back of the Castle, more dead than alive. From the time he left his cell to the &lull close ache scene of horror, he did not utter a syllable that could he hem! Sy tators ; but when the clergyman who, in tAlc; vg of him, put the usual qviesi:on, w! the; he Uab fly;, of the crime for which he was a b out in suffe r,l;ei,;'i lie was not guilty ! a n d h as , as we leara, lrctt t i .ft time sentence of death was passed upon him r A , moment that terminated his existence, declare 1 4 4 he neither committed n or attempte d Lc ermunitd, the rape or murder.—The body having hung :4 usual time was cut down and conveye.l to the 1 4 pital for dissection. • < o lbr tie. ir g 6 ,t ' t b g 4:;; r, Ise i d it !rem tip lin to 14 mtt Lred, 1 4 4 ‘ 4 , 4t hang :4 • Gd. 0: 1 % 1 . be. to 's. to L.
