DA RING ROBBERS.

ON Wednesday evening the 3d inst. as Furlonger, gardener
to Lord Carliampton, ttf Pains hill, near Cobham, Surrey,
was returning from his labour to * cottage In which be
lodged, in Paint-hall perk, three fellow., named Frederick
alias Alfred Lander, R.I. Lander, and James Fries alias
Sumner*, rushed not from behind some trees, knocked down
Furlonger, and robbed him of his watch and money. They
then tied Lis hands nod fret, and after waking some
inquiries as to who were in the cottage (the same as he re-
sided in), they avowed their inteniion to rub it, swearing to
blow his brains out if he disturbed them, and no the other
hand promising to return and reward hint if hr remained
quiet, and they met with success.—As soon as the villains
were out of hearing, Furlonger, by his Woggles, succeeded
its reinoviag the manacles with which he was hound, and
ran to a neighbouring farm-house to rive the ahem. The
thieves, on leaving the gardener, proceeded to the cut.
Cage, whose only inmates were a widow. named %Vehh,
and her daughter, kept there by the homily of the Noble
owner of the park; after reconnoitring some time tiny
•err seen by the daughter, who iistagining them to be
some lihoureis employed to fell timber, went nut to speak
to tbi nt ; one of the thieves immediately rushed forward,
knocked her down with a bludgeon, and held her on the
ground while his companious entered the cottage. The
pour girl implored then, to spare her ttttt ther's life, while
tie wretched widow, tin Om oilier !mud, heti, vine her chill
bail been murdered, exclaimed, they might like her life
also, as at now was of little worth."
Having tied the widow to a chair, the daughter was per-
mitted to enter the reline, the two Landers keeping guard
below, while Sumner. won up stairs In ransack the rooms
above. Before, however, he could Aid his purpose, Fur.
longer 'waived with two men armed from the cottage; the
two Landers then jumped out ifs window, and sae was se-
cured; the other, who unfortunately got oil, was shot at,
and, it is believed. wound, it in the legs. Stunners. bearing
the Noise below, jumped out of the bed•ronm window, and
ITT escaped, dropping Furlunger's watclu in his flight.--;The
Lander taken was afterwards car.icti before the lire. Mr.
Austen, a Magistrate, nt Otkham, and committed to Home-
owner-lane es.d, for trial at next Assims.—So ttttt et,.
