the police io suburban districts with master key., to visit
the grounds and preasi‘es of gentlemen at all hours of the
night. 0.. Monday night, about half-pact 12 o'clock,
constatie Well, having me/dully es.minad the lodges and
various outhuil..inge, and h and them all safe, proceeded to
the mansion, which Wands by itself. On opening a door
leading to a passage by tho side of the house, who m
the scullery and kitchens are shish,. he was surprised
to observe • man litheing towards the back of at arbour at
the end of the passage, • here, as he was not
arquaint.d with the egress by a secret door, he was °bile,'
to turn and confront the file. r, who asked him what he
wanted there. Th's mac made an iaatsnt attack with a life
pr./server upon the officer, which the latter euecerded in
parrying wish his staff, and presently contrived toe rike the
(close a blow with .hit instrument, which felled him.
Before he could armed his rattle ten more men rushed out
of a shrubbery, which concealed the donte.tic offices from the
lawn, and grappling *kb the constable threw him with
trormends•ua violence upon the raised Haps of some coal col-
lars, und r the scullery window, and afterwards kicked and
jumped on him until, as they suppoeed, they had deprived
him of life. The conatabler recoils wed that the tallest of
these two men wore • crape mask and spectacles. lie remained
in a senseless state, it la supposed, upwards a' an hour, and
at length was fortunately ,enabled to make sufficient sound
to be heard by a eardener, who found the officer in a most
pitiable state. He then alarmed the house, and upon Mr.
Hutton ascertaining the state of affairs, he had the constable
at once brought into the house and attended to, whilst
servants were despatched to the nearest police station. It
was ascertained that five suspicious characters were brought
down to Putney•bridp by a cab at a late hour that debt.
