It appeared that the deeesaed was apprenticed to Mr. Shell, a tailor, milling in Gray's-Inn-lane. His fellow-workmen latterly observed a very risible change in his manners : he became melan chitty, sententious, and morose, though generally of a kind diva. bitten. Is was presumed that his mindd - had been disturbed in conse quence of an amour some time existing between hin t and a f ema l e arquaintance. by whom he was slighted. On Sunday last he paid a visit to a friend. Mr. Joseph Knight, of Cornwall-row, where he continued nearly three hours, but was then remarkably silent, both to Mr. and Mrs. Knight. The same was observed on Monday while at 11W work. Yesterday morning his family were alarmed by the re port of • pistol, proceeding from the third floor front room, the door of which was fastened inside; but on forcing it open the unfortunate young man was found weltering in his blood, and quite dead. The pistol with which it was effected was found at the opposite side of the street, he having flung it through the gloss in the anguish of dissolution. The hall passed through the abdomen, and wounded the termination of the spinal bone. 1 The J ury having viewed the body, expressed themselves satWlied ,' sa to the cause, and returned a verdict of—" Temporary De. 1 rangetnent."

The de ceased was a labouring man, employed on the n e w roa d front this town to Blackburn. Ile was a native of Clayton Green, and has Jett a widow sod tour children in that neighbourhood. It appeared 1 (Arm the evidence that Sharrock, with two of his feliow.lahourera, hid been receiving his wages at a tavern, in Preston, on Saturday night (a very unfit place, be it observed, for such a purpose), and ticeording to the testimony of his companions, had got a little treats in liquor. After leaving this publie-house, the party, consisting of Sharrock and two men, named M'illiate Clrienshaw and Martin Raven, called at the Holy Lamb, near the House of Correction gates. While here, a man named Peter Throp (but better known by the appellation of " Big Pee,") a weaver, came up to the paparty, and asked if any of them wished to fight; this chat e Sharrock seemed ready to accept, but his companions would not let him, and Throp left the house. Sharrock 's party followed soon after, and again met with Throp a few yards from the door of the public house. Some abusive words were exchanged between the deceased and Throp, and the parties were preparing (or a combat, when they were separated by the by-standers. Throp then went away, and Sharrock and his companions straggled one atter another on their way homewards. Sharrock, being the first of is party, again fell in with Throp and about fourteen others. his was near the factory of Messrs. Von and Co. in Stanley. feet. Throp came up to Sharrock, and by a blow on the teteples kaocked biro down near the curb stone, and then, by what these bar barians call a " run-bar punch," kicked him violently on the sto. teach.

MURDER AT BROMLEY. COMMITTAL OF A MANAGING DIRECTOR. EQU"TABLE TEA AGENCY COMPANY. Yesterday 31r. Goundry, the Managing Director of this Cwnt. pang, appeared before the Lord Mayor, to answer the complaint made by Mr. Torriano, the Solicitor. upon the part of Mr. Bell, of Huddersfield. The Justice Room was crowded with le-riflemen, some of whom took notes of the proceeding,' ; amongst them were some Directors of Contpanies, upon whom the decision of the Lord Mayor produced visible uneasiness. The Lone Mayon, having seen the complainant, asked wi e ther Mr. Goundry had paid any attention to the second summons. Mr. Goundry said, with a smile, that lie was ready to answer al thing alleged against bin'. The Loan Matron—You have been sent for to answer the charge of having obtained, by false pretences, two bills of exchange for the 111101110 of upwards of 9 0 _!., and you are also charged with having appropriated money rut into your hands to other purposes than Meer toe which it was delivered to you. I sent after you yea it'd'', and the day before; why did you not oar attention the summons ? One would imagine that a person would be anxious to vindicate !times If. _ Mr. Onumirv—l never heard 4 the businev. till vevterday even ing, at halt-pam fire o'clock, when I saw an account of what took pla , e in the new.papers. The LORD MAYOR—Your porter mill you must have seen the first summons. ,-------- 31r. tgiundry—Ha l but I did tot; I knew nothing at all abnot it. The Loan Martin then desired Mr. Pell to state his complaint. Mr. Bell rah that he bed first become acquainted with Mr. deundry in the course of last summer, when Mr. 0. was in the employment of &respectable tea-dealer. Afterwards he had some correspondence with hint upon the subject of purchasing tea, and becoming a sharehokler in the Company, having been led to do en in consequence of the inducements held out to him of advantages derivable from the premium on the shares. On the 19th of De cember he (Mr. sell) transmitted 92/. 2s. to 3lr. Goundry, in two bills of exchange, both of which had been duly honoured in Lon don, and ordered four chests of tea to be sent in return. Mr. foundry not sending any of the tea, he wrote ietersl pressing letters to him, but no satisfactory reply could be obtained until he received the fallowing latter and account : " Landon, lit of 3d Month, 1826.

He applied to Mr. Goundry for an explanation, and nut receiving a satisfactory reply, transmitted the whole correspondence to London, in order to obtain legal advice on the subject. The papers being placed in Mr. Torriano 's hands, that gentleman, on the 16th ult. wrote to NIT. Goundry, and also to the only Director whose residence he could discover, stating, that unless Blr. Bell's demand was instantly satisfied, a public exposure would be made of the whole transaction, and such other proceedings adopted as might be deemed most advisable. Mr. Torriano was about to call further evidence, relative to the charge of obtaining the sum of 92!.; but a consultation having taken place between the Lord Mayor and his chief clerk, his Lord. ship advised Mr. Torriano to confine himself to the proof of one of the two charges which arose out of the case. By proceeding on that tnr obtaining 101. under the pretence of the existence of a Company, he would not, of course, abandon the other charge. Mr. Tog lANo then, for the present, abandoned the charge as to the misapplication of the sum of 921. 25., and said, that if he could make it appear that Mr. Goundry had, by false pretences, persuaded dlr. Bell to become the purchaser of shares in a Corn. pang which never had existence.and in order to colour the delusion, had stated the share list to be full, and then transmitted shares numbered variously, from DOW to :WO and upwards, when, in fact, it could be made appear, from the evidence of the printer, that only 1000 had been ever printed, or could have been in circu. tuition—laying the residue nt the charge aside, for the moment his client was entitled to his Lordship's interference and protec tion, and Mr. Goundry ought to be held to bail for the mistle- MenTIOUr. Mr. Bell then deposed to the purchase of ten shares from Mr. foundry, on the representation that a Conipany was in existence, of which he was the Managing Director. Ile paid 101. for the shares; he had never seen anything of the money since. Mr. Tomato then called John Greatorex Marshall, a middle-aged person. He was much agitated when he gave his testimony. The LORD MAYOR (holding in his hand the prospectus, in which Mr. Marshall appeared as an Esq.)—What are you, Mr. Marshall ? Mr. Marshall— I was in the habit of travelling for several houses in the tea-trade until lately, when business was bad. The LORD Matroa—For whom have you travelled ?—Mr. M. mentioned one firm in Holborn for whom he had travelled. He stated, that he now resided at No. 11, Sion-place, Kent-street. My landlord (he is here) Mr. Smallpiece, knows me, aid can speak to my character. The LORD 3laYoa did not wish to inquire into Mr. Marshall's eh meter. Mr. Torriano—Now, Mr. Marshall, you are sworn, are you a Director ?—I am not. Did you ever consent to become a Director, or to the use of your name as such ?—Never. Then it has been printed here without your consent ?—Entirely. Do you know of any other Direeton P—l am not acquainted with any one.. Do you believe that there are any Directors, or that there Is any thing like a Company'!-4 do not. The Loup 31A1r011—Were you ever summoned to attend any Sleeting of Directors ?—Never, LORD 31.4/ . o2—Did you ever know anything, or concern your self. about the circulation of Shares ?—Never. ..... The Loan MAYOR examined the witness very closely upon this point, but he strongly denied that he had in any way acted in the capacity of a Director. Ile admitted fist he had called at the I Mice once or twice, and saw persons there, but he did nut know them. The Loan MaToa—When you were there what did you do ? On one occasion Mr. (foundry was directing a lot of letters. and he said to me `• Mr. Marshall, will you be so good as to direct a fvw of these for me ?" so I did dire m a few, and this was all I did. llt appeared that the printed papers he directed were lists of the prices alms, as coming (roma Company established for the supply of country dealers.) The Loan MAYOR—Did you receive no money for anything which you might in any way have done ?—On my oath, never. Did you ever hear him slaw what quantities of teas had been sold I—Never. Dlr. Goundry being informed that he might put any questions he thought proper to tl.e said, " Did you not attend a meet. tog %Inch was held on the 111th of March, before this prospectus was printed ?"—I never attended any meeting whatever. 111 r. Goutnirv—Did you not meet John YBlin, John Burgess, and Jct./ph C..ckin P.—Not to my knowledge. Mr. tioundry—Then I will prove you did. The LORD Maron—You must not enter into any alttreation, Mr. Uoundry ; you may, however, ask any questions you may think proper. 31r..tio r untIrr —I can prove he-did attend. I ant indignant at the way I ant treated. Die muy have area people when I culled at your eounting-touse, but I did nut know them. I item knew of any meeting. Ir. Goundry—Did you not see the proof of the Prospectus be fore tt wa.. printed ?—The witness denied that lie had seen any thing of the kind, or that he had in any way interfered. Sir. (Mondry put repeated questions to the wiineva as to the share he 'nigh: have taken, but the latter denied that he had taken soy.

Mr. Morgan, the printer of the Prospectus, was then called. He &plied th4r lie received orders to print somewhat less than 1000 of them. Ile had not printed more than that number. Ile did it for Mr. (laundry. He underbtood trom the paper itself tha: a Cow. pany was in existence. • The Loll!) AlaYow—Now you need not answer me, Mr. Goun. art., title.. on think proper.

That is the way they go out till they amie to the last Intl. The defendant made slime further ex planations, the purport of which was, that the proper eotame of business in such cases was for the highest numbered Shares to go out first.

The prosecutor here declared that he had sent this letter in con. arquenee of the sele'•letter he had received from the defendant. whirh stated the establishment of a Company, in which country tea-deblerv, who purchased share, would derive great advantage% The Loan Marna declared th.tt the letter given in by the de fendant rather confirmed the cior than le herwiee. 31r.

I hare nu witnesses here now, because I never ex pected any would be wanted. The LORD MAYOR said, he saw no sugi:lent reason to adjourn the case. The evi.lence tor the prosecution, on which be was called to decide, made out a case of fraud, which must go before a Jury. The defendant had pretended that a Company existed, of which he wan the Managing Director, when, in point of fact, there never had been any such Company formed. lle pretended that 9.000 Shares had been issued, and more than that, by his letter that the list was full, when, in tact, but LOW Shares had been printed ; and he as sumed the character of Director and Manager of a Company which had no existence, and upon these false pretences had obtained lb/. His Lordship felt h his duty to order the defendant to find hail to answer this charge. lie did this under the Act, which subjected the prism convicted of the offence to transportation. The other charge of the inhiappropriation of the 921. might 'mod over. The defendant not having bail ready, went in search of some persons. Hr returned, however, without having succeeded. The LORD 31AYOR, under there circumstances, required two good bail to the amount of 401. each, and the defendants own surety to the amount of MI/. At about half.past tour o'clock, however, ho bail having arrived, the defendant was committed to prison. 3lr. Christie, of the Society of Friends, to-day attended to state that 3lr. Goundry had ceased to be a member of the Society of Friends in 1814. but as to any.circuntstancts relating to his bank ruptcy about that time, he (Mr. Christie) was quite unacquainted. Mr. Torriano begged to state, that Mr. Nicholson, whose name had been mentioned in the affair, had only employed the defendant for three _ months, and that tllo connexion had ceased eighteen months no. . . . . . . Dl imundry denied this, and stated subsequently, that upon an appeal watch he made to the Society of Friends in 1623. he had been reinstated as a member. FtITHEI TART IC I:LARS. A resumed investigation of the circumstances attendant on the above barbarous outrage took place yesterday at the divisional of. Lice of police, Lantbeth.street, IVhi echapel. This additional inquiry was considered indispensably requisite. inkitiouch as it was thought unsafe to send the accused parties to trtal on the very vague and deficient depositions taken at the Co. roar's Inquisition. and the more so es some evidence, tending to thew the ...animas" by_ which the persons charged were &stunts-44 was on that occasion omitted. Before the business was gone into, a crowd of the lower order of Irish, all, if we were to judge by the expression of their counie halides. deeply interested in the impending fate of their wretched pountrymen, thronged the vicinity of the office. Precisely at 12 o'clock the criminals now in custody, Devils and iniressce Atearty, were placed at the bar. The former throughout the day preserved an undisturbed self-possession, while the letter, by convulsive movement about the eye+, and a hectic flushing of the countenance, occasionally . betrayed much mental suffering, and a consrionsness of the awful utuatiou in a hieli ungovernable passion had placed him. The 31agherstes who presided at the inquiry were Sir D. Wig, Li.113/4, M. WYATT, Esq. and the Iter• Mr. MATHIAS. 31r. Townsend, the overseer, and 31r.

Mr. Tyrrell, Roman Catholic pastor of Stratford, to than it had been previously intimated that his presence during the examination would, in all probability, prevent the witnesses from prevaricating in so gross a manner as they haul at the ioqui widow, and influence them to tell the truth. The Rev.

DUBLIN POIiCE. The reign of haddock and herring has subsided, and the cheering Easter, with all her train of enjoyments, has resumed her sway over this religious metropolis. We know no season more pregnant with happiness than Easter. Christmas has its delights, it must be confessed ; but we still feel in the midst of its pleasures, the pre. settee of the damp winter, and the chill certainty that it, cannot be hastily concluded. Easter, on the contrary, comes like a harbinger of happiness, midway in the delicious spring, turning from the cold and dreary winter, and beckoning the coy summer to follow up and complete the delights of the season over which she is called nn to preside. Piscatory edibles are to be had below par; and the Roman Catholic, emancipated from the thraldom of Lent, runs riot in the richest articles of culinary delicacy. Scarcely have the city bells announced the entrance of Easter, when pans and gridirons are put in instant requisition ; the morning air, seduced from its primitive sweetness, is redolent of beef steaks, lamb chops, and the gross though savory odour of the anti-Judaic rasher, and the once prohibited egg; and the first quarter after the solemn midnight of an Irish Easter Saturday, peeps like a busy intruder Into the domi. eile of all sect*, classes, and creeds, and finds them united on the main point, rite enjoyment of happiness and social harmony. Easter should be. and generally is, a time of peace. It should be so just now. Crime is on the decrease; the pleasure of breaking the head of an old friend, has lost its raciness ; and Ali. O'Connell is in Kerry, which makes Dublin proportionably tranquil. But there are, as George Colman says, " Choice spirits, Who lose man's regular estate a sun By borrowing too largely from the moon ;" a race of men, reckless of times or seasons, who have entered into a solemn compact with themselves, to set every thing like a regular stile of living at defiance, and do the most curious things without entertaining the slightest feeling as to the consequences. Amongst this class, we are obliged, as true narrators, to mention a very ath letic man, named Blake, who, as the stars would have it, h a d t a k en up his ab ode with aAI r. Hogan. a man of mere milk-and-water ha bits in point of disposition, and very different from his co-lodger, who was of a seducing exterior, and a Connaught man ; and w ho partook of his country's partiality for a row, or a frolic, a love affair, or a duel, as the thing turned out. In fact, he was a perfect sala mander, and appeared not only to live in tire himself, but contrived to keep every one also in a blaze, wherever he was content to abide. Hogan, on the contrary, was peaceable and led a sedentary lite, being a tailor by trade, and bad taken to himself a wife, in his foolish days; a woman of pleasing exterior; and just that sort of person who was calculated to catch the eye of Blake, who was a va letudinarian in thstlpartirular. Hogan did not like the aspect of things, but the dread of Blake's pistols kept him in perpetual awe : and he Let concealment, like the worm i' the bud, Feed on his pallid cheek. Easter. Saturday however arrived. Blake, as he was wont, sallied out for a booze ; and Hogan went to some congenial souls of his own trade to indulge in a alight refection, after the toils of the week, and the privations of the Lent. both parties, although they went to different stations, had the same objects in view, and it is but justice to add, that they succeeded to the summit of weir wishes, in getting "comfortable," or rather the contrary, as appeared in the sequel. Blake staggered home after a few seuffies with the watch, and other municipal officers ; and not being at all particular, he perhaps, through the force of habit, made his way into the bed-ritoorn of Hogan, and very leisurely deposited his body on the bed Mrs. 11. bring at the time enjoying a raking pot of tea with a female neighbour, in an adjoining apartment.) Ho. gin appeared a short time afterwards, his head full of intoxication, his heart brimming with loyalty, and King William the only words be could with any degree of proper intimation, get out through the articulative aperture in the front of his constitutional countenance. Ilia thoughts, however, still ran on Mr. Blake, and the internal spirit of revenge, which somehow or other is implanted in our frail natures, was bubbling up in the mental fountain of the tailor's die. position. This was rather an unlucky period for Blake and Hogan to come into contact; but so it was, and on the latter endeavouring to.lodge his body on its accustomed depository,found to his amaze ment that by far the largest portion was pre-occupied by some person whom he wisely conjectured could not be his spouse, as she rarely went to rest with a hat and surtout, and had never to his knowledge cherished a large pair of whiskers on her countenance. All his supposed wrongs rushed to his recollection—he thought of Blake and his conduct, and forgetful of the peaceful season, lie dischargad hie double-list on the Os Trona: of the sleeping Con. naughtman, who answered the assault by a voice ofa mixed nature, wiroewhat partaking of a yelp, a cackle, and a howl, followed up by a hug, after the manner of an accomplished bear, and a few huts on the visage of the irritated tailor. Excessive pain creates a tendency to tears, as philopophera cunningly say, and often ten inclination to roar, as was demonstrated by the conduct of the tailor, who possemel a stentorian voice in th e compass of a very small body, and in a short period his spouse, backed by a strong body of watchmen, appeared in.toe apartment, where they found Hogan half strangled, and his opponent half mad at the ignominious treatment he had received from the tailor. In those cases a settlatient, in the first instance, is out of the question, and the usual consequet.te is an appeal to the offended laws of the realm, This of course took place, and the result was, that as both parties appeared to be in error, they should be mutually bound over to keep the peace. We do presume that Ilocan might have adhered to this rule. but some terrors were entertained as to the other party militant, his blood not appearing to be at all cooled by the night's confinement, and his salamander-like disposition dis closing its secrets in various oddities of expression, such as mutter ed curses, and more titan half expressed threats as to his future treatment of the ill-fated tailor. Time, however, cures many sores, and the parties ultimately 'hook bands, wisely considering that as cash was scarce, the expense of hail bonds would be bettor employ ed on a regale, and they therefore retired to • neighbouring ale house to ofier up to Bacchus the sum which had been imposed upon them Fur their devotion at the shrine of Halloos. A barbarous attempt was made, on Sunday, to murder the clerk. whose name is Dyes, at the parish church of Feacle, county clue, while op his way to the village. A villain on the road struck him repeated blows with a spade, knocked him tree) his horse, and it is believed fractured hi, skull. The unfortunate man had otfert.tl the liTt.Ch no provocation whatever. On Wednesday night last, Alfred Furlong, Esq. of the Cas.le, and the ElMard OcraitY• Mt , distratett• with a lea of the constables, and 'a party of the 22d Regiment, under Id Him Fleming; proceeded from Newcastle, county Limerick, to a Louse • near the mountain of Romka, in which a number of persons were amembled at a wake, 'where they succeede.l in apprehending James Enright ' who Is charged with being a principal in the murd er o f M ichaellhtihane. at ltutiertatown, in the month of May kat.

Whitmarsh, Esq. bar rister, and %V. D. Whiimarsh and S. Foote. biers., attorneys, to inquire into the state of mind of the Reverend Thomas Talbot, of Sutton Mandeville, in the county of Wilts, a Jury was on Wed nesday summoned from the most respectable inhabitants of Salts bury; and an inquest was held at the Black Horse Inn, in that city. The warrant for holding the inauest having been read, the Com missioner in Chief, Mr. F. N'hitmorgh, described the characier of insanity, in all its variations and degrees. Having stated who was the snhjer t and what the oljert of the investigation, Mr. Osmond deposed. that he had known 111 r. Talbot for fifteen years; observed some difference in his behaviour about Michael mas 1823, but cannot speak precisely its to the day. Made an in. quiry with regard to his health, said he was well, but pointing to the air, said he •s wished if some of us could get rid of them." Saw him again on Christmas eve, he was kneeling at the gates of some of witilesit's friends ; asked who lie wanted ? Mr. Talbot said in reply that he had a message for a friend of his in London; asked him what one the matter? said he was harassed by innumerable beings in the air, throwing balls, and be could not at all manage to get out of the reach of them, either In one part of the country or the other. Had been molested in London by them ; said he was a liow.streei officer out of place, and many other inconsistent, wild.,and extravagant things, which fully convinced witness he was of insane mind ; he also stated, that he had killed a man and a woman. 31r. William Target, a master tailor. of Salisbury, deposed to similar language and conduct on the part of Mr. Talbot. Two physicians, Dr. Thomas and Dr. Fowler, spoke to the same delusion. The unfortuna.e lunatic was brought In. He was most repect able in anpearance, and very healthy. He underwent a long examination. Every reply, however, only served to depic ture a great mind in ruins--occasionally sensible of its original dig nity. Ile stated that all he wanted was liberty ; detailed the effects of the air blazess ; confirmed in every point the assertions of Drs. Fonder and Thomas; and cautioned the Jury how they found a verdict against the hours anointed. After the charge from the Learned Commissioner, the Jury re turned a verdict, " That the Rev. Thomas Talbot had been of insane mind from the 24th of December, 1823." RetattteY M►rHANlra' INSTITUTE.—The Committee of the Keighley Mechanics' Institute has published their firm an. numl report of the proceedings of the Society. It appears that 1361. 19s. 31 2 d. has been received in donations, fines, and weekly contributions : the expenditure of the Society, in books, appara tus. &c. is 131/ Ifs. ; leaving a balance in the Treasurer's hand, of V. :Is. 3itl The writer of the address, in speaking of the bene ficial tendency of Mechanics' Institutions, observe., that by means of them, latent genius may be excited and promoted to action, the dormant abilities of individuals, yet unknown, may be roused, brought to light, improved, and exerted for the general good ; and the Committee, indulging these hopes, looks forward with feelings of pleasure to the time, when the moral and scientific benefits of this yet infantile institution shall be more fully developed and acknow ledged."—Lerds Intrlligrneer. _ _ SOMERSET ASSIZES.—Mr. Justice Burrough, in his charge to the Grand Jury of the county of Sbmerart, censures the prevalent practice of committing culprits to the Assizes far trial, who might, with greater justice to themselves and the country, have been disposed of at the Sessions. His Lordship regretted that he had had to mention the circumatince in almost every town on the Circuit, and he did hope that in future a different course would be adopted, as, independently of the inconveniences above alluded to, much:more of the valuable time of jurymen and witnesses was consumed in attending the Assizes than would be required if trivial cases were brought under the cognizance of an inferior tribunal. In illustration of the Learned Judge's remarks on this erroneous prac tice we cannot do better than make public the manner in which the Court was occupied the remainder of the day, in trying offences of the moat unimportant nature ; such, for instance. as stealing a pint of milk, a piece of sacking of the value of sixpence, a bundle of straw, • basket of coals, and many others of equal insignificance; and as short periods of imprisonment (in some instances a few weeks, and in others days only) were considered a sufficient punish. ment for such crimes, the Court again drew the attention of the Magistrates to the impropriety of committing persons to prison for many months before they were put upon their trials. It is painful to find, when prosperity seems arising in those parts of the country which have suffered by panic, and by cortimer:ial distress, that a groundless panic in Hereford has occa- stoned all its three banks to close their doors! Men rushing to demand instant payment in gold ! Why, they may as well de-' manes from bankers a diamond for every penny. %%'e announced last week the bank of Messrs. Bodenham and Co. suspended their payments; on the following day (in consequence of a severe run) Messrs. Holloway, Cooke, and Carless. adopted the same melancholy alternative—leaving Hereford without a Banking Establishment! An account has been published of Messrs. Halloway and Co.'s affairs, from which it appears that, after every demand against them shall have been satisfied, the surplus amounts to 66,48.1/., including the private fortunes of the partners, and not taking into the account the property of the late head of the firm, Colonel Matthews. Several gentlemen have examined the accounts of Bodenham and Co. and state that after all demands are paid, a very considerable surplus will remain. Mr. Bodenham, Jun. has pledged himself that, if necessary, he will pay the debt due front his father to the old firm of Bodenham, Phillips, and Garratt, out of the hereditary estates. It is impossible ro describe the distress occasiored in Hereford by the stoppage of the banks; scarcely any money transactions can be carried on. There is, how ever, an immediate prospect of relief from these embarrassments. The Hereford paper of Wednesday announces that within a month, a new bank wili be opened by a gentleman of respectability and for tune.—ln consideration of the situation to which Hereford has been reduced, the Lords of the Treasury have (upon the application of Mr. Price, the county member) ordered the officers of the Excise to afford every facility to persons who have duties to pay at this time. Garrett and Co. commence paying their first instalment of lila. in the pound to.morrow.—ShreWbUry Chronicle. ONE GOOD TURN DESERVES ANOTHER.--A circum stance occurred at Lancaster, about a fortnight ago, which caused a good deal of mirth amongst the people resorting to the assizes. A person from this town (whose name we believe is Woolley), having given bail for an acquaintance named Blanchard, in an ac. tion of debt, went to Lancaster with the debtor, for the purpose of surrenderirg him into custody. Having arrived there in the even ing, they did not go directly to the castle, but spent the night at an inn, and the bail, suspecting no guile on tine part of his pri soner, allowed him to have as much freedom as he chose. Blan. chard requited this kindness by going to an attorney's office, where he swore that Woolley was indebted In him, and took out a writ to arrest him. The writ was put into the hands of a Sheriff 's Gfficer ; and at the very moment when the confiding bail was pre paring to lodge his prisoner in safe custody, he was himself arrest ed and carried to the officer's house, where he was kept until the following day, and would have been detained longer, had he not fortunately found out sonic acquaintances from Manchester, who were attending the assizes. and who became security for him. It is hardly necessary to add, that, on his liberation he found his pri soner had taken the first opportunity of returning to Manchester ; and it was not withiut a good deal of trouble that he succeeded in securing him a second time. It may be readily imagined, however, that on his second journey to Lancaster he took better care of his prisoner.—Manchearcr Paper. HIGHWAY ROBBERV.—On Friday night last, as Mr. Sudlow, of the firm of Ainsworth, Crossley, and Sudlow, solicitors orthis town, was returning home, on the Cheetham Hill-road. he was passed by a man, who turned round and seized him. Mr. Sudlow called for assistance, when another .fellow came up, and presenting a pistol, asked him to deliver his money ?, Mr. Sudlow made considerable resistance, and struck the men several times. A third man then came up ; he also presented a pistol at Mr. Sudlow, who then, finding resistance of no avail, desired them to use no violence. They then robbed him of his watch, chain, and seals, and 7s. in silver, with which they got clear off On the following day a man offered to pledge a chain and seals with Mr. Goodier, a pawnbroker, but Mr. G. having had previous information of Mr. Sudlow'a robbery, examined them minutely, and found that they were part of the property stolen. He then caused the man to be taken to the police office. where he was examined, but nothing tending further to identify him with the robbery was found on him. On looking under the Se./ t which he had occupied in the police office, however, a pistol was found, which corresponded with the description of those used by the robbers. The man, whose name i s Daniel Gaynor, was brought up at the New Bailey yesterday, and these facts heir* waived against him, he was committed to Lancaster to take his trial at the ensuing Assizes.—Monchcster Mercury.
