minster, urn the body of Thomas Hankins, aged 4b years,
11/1111 M 39 Gonad dead in the water-closet at the Craven Head
win Wednesday night last. Solomon Mayenck deposed, that
the deceased was on Wednesday last drinking near the whole
of the day, and was very such intoxieated in the evening.
About six o'clock a person named Wilding went into the
water ckset, and stumbled over the deceased, who lay is the
floor; he appeared to be suffocated by liquor ; he was in
a lifeless state. He had been previonaly in a good state of
health. Other witnesses were examined, all proving that the
deceased died in ■ 61 produced by excessive drinking, ■nd
the Jury returned a verdict to that effect.

Sir CHARLES BROWN, of Clenchwerton, in
Norfolk, has bred and grazed an ox, which was
killed * few drys ago at Norwich: it measured fif-

ment had been concerted by the inhabitants of that
Subsequetit accounts, however, nave shown

from what causes it has in all prohability soiseo. It
appears that otter the miffsy which took place be-
tureen a detachment of English soldiers, and the
isiloshitaiits or Zmite, its the attempt to plunder a
Turkish vewirl which had been driven ashore in
Cheri bay, both the naval•and military force at the
islatid were much strengthened by order of Sir
THOMAS MAITLAND. He then proceeded to
punish the ringleuilers in the affray, and afterwards
to dictrtn the whale of the islsuderr, whose custom
it bad previously been to wear aims of sonic de-
scription as a part of their dress, This custom
having existed Mooing them front very remote rim-
