Arrinirrgn MUEDZIL—This morning between
twelve and one o'clock a murderous attack was made on
Mrs. Horeb Bryant, at her residence, 82, James-street,
Lambeth, by a female named Anne Smith, who met Mrs.
Bryant in the passage of the house on her return home.
end seizing her commenced stabbing her about the head
and face with a knife. Mn. Bryant's screams brought several
of the inmates to her amistance, but not before she had sus-
tained serious, if not fatal, injuries, one of the thrusts of
the knife having entered her eve. She was removed without
loss of time to Westminster Hoepitel, where she remains in
a precarious state. The women Smith was taken before
the magistrate at Lambeth police-court this morning, and
remanded to await the result of Mn. Bryant's injuries.
INCIDENTS or BECKHAM'S EXECUTION.—During
Beckham's address to the people his son encouraged
him to be firm by waving his cap. This hardened
youth is only 16 years of age. His sister, who was with
im, began to cry several timee,when he hustled her rudely
to prevent her indulging in such • natural exhibition of
feeling ! On the day after Beckham's execution the man
who acted as hangman wax violently assaulted in Limerick.
He had the imprudence to leave the shelter of the gaol, and
went down the town for the purpose of seeing the city, and
the still further imprudence of going into a public-house to
drink. when he was recognised by a number of people, who
immediately laid hands upon him, and assaulted him in a
grievous manner. In the assault several of his teeth were
broken, and his face much bruised. Hie life would in all
likelihood have been endangered, but that the nightwatek
and constabulary came to his assistance. Next morning it
was attempted to get him off by the early train, hut with-
out success, as a large emwd was assembled at the termi-
nus, determined to renew their attack upon his, It is
mid that an unwillingness was also exhibited by those who
were leaving by the train to travel in his society. He was
accordingly brought hack to the county prison, where it is
believed he will remain for a few days until the feeling
which has been excited .ban have subsided.

"The corn ;opa in Valpginy," says the Saha
Public of Lyme. •`do not turn out so good as was expected;
they are light both in straw and grain. In Breese the crepe
have suffered ranch from being laid. Bat in the Lyme**
Beaniolais. and Xecoonsis the sheaves are heavy and t►e
can well filled. The harve■t generally does not equal the
expectesioes entertained in spring, bat the yield will cer-
tainly be above an average one."
