On Sanday night led the house of Mr. Robert
Rogers, within a mile of Illinevarn, was entered by
a numerous armed banchtti.and rubbed of two guns;
whirl) from the titivation of the house not being cal-
culated to stand an attack, Mr. Rogers was relay-
tautly obliged to give up. The party were all
strangers. and seemed to be under the direction of
a young man of rather genteel appearance, who was
dressed to a grey frock coat, overalls, and boots and
spurs. He desired Mr. Rogers net to be alarmed,
that they only wanted artos—he aloe asked for
little water to drink, and when pressed to some spin
rite or wine he declined, uar would beadles the men
to accept of any. We soderstaad they visited dif-
&vein other house* in that neighboorhood on the
same night, and succeeded in their object.
On Sundry morning, about two o'clock, another
armed set of these nocturnal depredators attacked
the house of Mr. John Arnold, within a mile of
Mitchelrtown, and after &tang a shot into the par-.
lour, demanded Weston, which, not being immedi-
ately complied with, they commenced breaking the
doors and windows, end it was only when they were

purpose they procured a lighted eaudle and straw,
that lie wini iudoced to give the only fire arms he
had—a gun. • They their entered the house, which
they searched closely, having left no place un-
opened ; and finding no more arms they asked Mr.
Arnold and his brother to join their party ! stating
at the tame time that two each clever men woald
soon be promoted ! They then required some spi-
rits, and wanted to entice him out on the road,
which was literally covered with men, hot which
haying declined, they left the house, observing that
" they were on a very serious business, which would
soon come to light," and desired the lousily to retire
to bed at once.—(Soethera..Fleporfer.)

MR. MURRAY, LATR OP COVENT-GARDEN
THEATRE.
.........-

This gentleman, whore death was noticed in our Paper of I
Tuesday Int, was many years a must distinguished fasuarite
on the Covent-garden &cards. He was the son of Sir John
Murray, Bret., of Broughton, secretary to Charles Edward,
the Pretender, in the rebellion of 1745, who, after the anal
ruin of the cause of his unfortunate master, retired to
Cbeahunt, in Hertfordshire, where, its the year 1754, the
sobiect of this memoir was born. Charles, under the im-
mediate gwardianship of his father, received au excrllent
classical education. and was at a props; season sent into
France to perfect himself in the language of that country—
• language which, from his youngest days, be spoke with
the correctness and floenry of the most accomplished native.
Being designed by his fi heads for the medical profession, he
was, on his return to Englandfpleced as a pupil with a Lou-
dun practitioner of eminence, and basing obtained a com-
petent knowledge of pharmacy and svisgery, entered into
the sea service as a surgeon, in which capacity lie made se-
vere! voyages. Being tired of this service lie entered into
an engagement with Mr. Tate Wilkinson, ao•I made his Bret
appearance on the stage at York in 1775, in the character
et Carlos in the Fop's Fortune, under the assumed name of
Mr. Replier. 'Thence he went to Norwich and afterwards
to Bath. At the death of the late Mr. Farree, be entered
into no engagement with Mr. Harris at Covent garden Thea-
tre, where be appeared in 1797, in the part of Shilock, in
the algesimit of rewire.
b ibblieri of sensibility and deep pathos, Mr. Murray
; and in such parts as Old Normal, Ist-
olipsess. and Adams, "we shall never look upon his like
• Orin."
Mr. Murray has left a son and a &tighter is the proses.
sloe. The latter (Mrs. Henry Siddons) is highly distin-
guished as an actress, both in tragedy and in genteel co-
medy, and is the present proprietor of the Theatre Royal,
Edinburgh. Her brother, Mr. William Murray, the acting
manager of that respectable theatre, is also a great favourite
in that metropolis. .•
The Brighton Harriers will hunt regnlarly on t'..; following
days:—Monday, near Patcham ; Wednesday, near the Race
Course; Friday, near fhe Dyke. After the 25th of Decem-
ber, they hunt four times a week, 515.—Monday, Wednesday
Friday, asd Saturday.

We lament our obligation to state that a little girl of this
town has perreniely strayed Gum the humble dwelling Of
her mother, Anne Balderson, a pour widow of CoNey.strem ;
abandoned entirely the comforts of home; and, under she
impression of some strong delusion, committed herself to
the wide world. As this child did out return from an d
on which she was sent on Monday evening, the strictest
search was made fur her on Tuesday morning, when it was
ascertained that she had slept in Skirberk quarter. On
Tuesday night she was kindly received al the Bead.honse at
Foedike Wash, and is supposed to have proceeded utt the
river bank to Spalding, as she is said to have expressed au
intention of going by way of that town to London ! The
name of skis infant pilgrim is Anne flaldersow ; her age
10 years; but as site is very thin and low in stature, she
does •ot appear quite so old. lier countenance is pale, her
cheeks freckled, and her hair of a darkish colour. Sbe had
on, when Ilse left Boston, a dark blue frock, with a checked
pin-a-fore; • black cloth spencer; and an old heaver hat,
tied with black Hinted. We need scarcely •dd that say
humane person who may be disposed to exert himself in the
cause of the poor •Sided mother, will, through life, be
rewarded by that divine satisfaction which casiout but result
from zealous efforts to restore a lost child to her home ; and
thee convert an abbde of shivery i•tu • mansion of ponce
j and comfort and joy.—(Boston Gaulle.)
