ADULTERATION OF COFFEE.—The Janeet Analytical
Sanitary Commission has resumed its examination of the
coffee sold in the metropolis; thirty nine samples of which
have recently been scrutinised, fourteen of these being
genuine. It appears that the labels, which by law are
placed upon'the mixture of coffee with chicory, are rendered
obscure by the manner of stamping them, and the purchasers
are thereby frequently liable to be misled. The results of the
recent investigations by the commissioners show that the
public are still extensively defrauded by the adulteration of
coffee with chicory, though less so than when the subject
was first taken up by that journal ; and that in no case was
any other substance than chicory found as an adulteration
in the recent samples examined.
ATTEMPTED HIGHWAY ROBBERY AT WAKEFIELD.—At
Wakefield, on Friday evening, a young woman, named
Hannah Carter, servant to Miss Brown, St. John's, on her
way home, when opposite Mr. l3arract's gardens, was
attacked by two powerfully built men, who requested to be
supplied with money. She told them that she had nothing
for them; whereupon one of them, retiring a short distance,
took something from his pocket, returned, and producing a
phial containing a liquid, uncorked it, and whilst his
companion held the girl, he poured a quantity of the liquid
it contained down her throat, Fortunately, just then
footsteps wore heard approaching, and they made off, leaving
the young woman in a state of stupefaction. She was
conveyed to her mistress's house, where she now lies in a
very dangerous state, her throat being severely burnt by
the liquid. The police are on the track of the two villains,
and it is hoped they will shortly succeed in capturing and
bringing them to justice,
