Tiso,sday a man was brought front the Sugar Loaf public-house, in Drury-1;-ine, charged with an assaidt upon a woman, at that house, under the following circumstnices :—lt appeared that the woman resides on Wimbledon eiiitint-n, keeps fowls, and had found an egg in one of her hen's nests. on which she described an inscription to appear, "Buns znprrte will die this sear." She concluded this was a supernatural cir- cusustance, and brought it to London to show to her sister who keeps the Sugar Loaf pidle-house, in Drury-lane : she called her friends and cus tomers together to see the marvellous work of nature ; among them was the man chat ged with the :Issault, who it appeared had been attracttd to view the extramdindry circumstance, and who, while she was exit'. bitioog the egg, gave her It blow on her arm, by design, which knocked the ego out of her hand, and broke it. The avitut s.ies who attended ad• mined and confirmed the account that an inscription to the above effect did appear on the ego in question ; but whether it W3S an act of nature 4 art they could not certify : they ackn owled g ed dint the inscri p tion o. the egg-shell, and that it was incorrectly spelt. It MRS raisf , . "I" egL . also appears' that the prose•cutrix's hens had lately laid soate unnatural eggs with spot► on them. &c. Mr. Nam., ►he Sitting Magistrate, advised the man to make the mat ter up with the woman, and they retired for that purpose. On their re turn into the Office, the man stated that the woruan had demanded 101 ai altetnuneration for the loss of her egg. The Magistrate cousideriog the demand as exorbitant, dismissed the complaint. ACCTDENTS AND OFFENCES. Last week, three men, farmers' set vents at Leybourn, near Town Mailing. Kent, ...bile at their work, found under some hay, a tub of brandy concealed by a smuggler, and of which they drank to such excess, that one of them died b. fore reaching home, and the others remain in a weak end dangerous state. On Wednesday last, a duel was fought by two of the French pri soners on board the Sampson prison-ship, lying in Gillingham Reach, when one of - them in consequence was kllled. Not having any swords, they attached to the end of two sticks a pair of scissars each. The deceased received the mortal wound in he Abdomen ; his bowel...pro truded, and yet he continued to parry aid' his antagonist while his strength would admit. Afterwards an application was made to the surgeon of the ship, who replaced the Intestines and sewed up the wound; but he survived but a short time. TUE NATIONAL REGTSITR. APRIL 25.
