RIMARIABLE CAFTURI or A HAIKU -.-011 Wednesday'
morning last, a hare was started from a field opposite the
Malmesbury Arms Inn, in Fisberton Anger, by Mr.
Blake, which made its way from thence into an adjoining
garden, and into a woodhouse; from thence it returned
through another garden, crossed the turnpike road, and en-
tered the kitchen of the Malmesbury Arms, where ic Mok
refuge under the grate, until a hot cinder fell upon its
back, when a young man, who happened to be present
(William Uphill, son of a keeper at Hemerton), took her
in his arms, carried her into the highway, and gave her her
liberty.—Sulisbery Journal.
A package of extraordinary dimensions, and la extra.
ordinary contents, was brought by Wyatt's Marlow wagon,
from London, on Sunday morning last, addressed to Mr.
Maclean, of that town, and inscribed "Class" in large !et-
tees on the outside of the box, with directions to keep that
aide uppermost. As the wagon arrived at Marlow teo late
on the Sunday morning for a ease of its dimensions to be
delivered out on that day, it was suffered to remain in the
inn yard, where the wagon puts up, the remainder of that
day and the whole of the succeeding night, and taken to
Mr. Maclean on the Monday. What his feelings must
have been may be better conceived than described, when on
opening the ease he found it contained the corpse of a
brother, enclosed in a rough coffin, or rather shell, daubed
over with pitch, and having a pasteboard inscribed wills
the name of the deceased stuck on it with the same Mitt-
rial.—How to account for this novel method •f conveying
a dead body is no easy task ; for whether an act so repug-
nant to common decency was dictated by parsimony or
malignity, it is equally deserving public reprobation. Mr.
Maclean was aware of his brother's death, expected hip
corpse, and had provided for its interment on the preceding
Saturday ; but no idea that it would be conveyed toltirn its
so disgraceful a manner ever entered him imagination,• and
we trust the instances of similar meant of decorum ,are very
rare.—Reading Mercury.
