two minutes, when the whole house was alarnitil by his

A CAUTION TO RESURRECTION MEN.—On Sunday
last, the 17th illiit3lll, a ;Jour woman. of the none of
Westmore, and her son, who had both died within a
few hours of each other, were buried in Peveral church
yard, near Ealing, Middlesex, and a suspicion arose by
persons present that an attempt would be made to peal
the bodies. In consequence, two men watched in the
night with fin:nil-ins, atid about one o'clock, three men
were observed to open the grave, when one of the men
on watch fired off with three slugs. and one was seen
to fall, whom the other two conveyed to a coach, and
made off, without being pursued by the watchitien.—a

bodies in the grave, they might not disappoint the stir•

On Sunday afternoon, about four o'clock, the Sheriff
of Edinburgh, accompanied by the superintendent of
police, and a body of officers, proceeded to the Cordiners'
Hall, Putter-row, where about 160 persons were as•
scudded, engaged, as was understood, in the discussion
of doctrines subversive of christianity. Ott the Sheriff
being announced, the persons assembled endeavoured to
escape, but they were pietented by the police officers
until tile whole of thoi names w ere taken down. Two
or three perbuns, who appeared to be the conductors of
the meeting, were apprehended, and several Atheistical

several rooms up stairs, and took from thence every port-
able article that could possibly he carried away; they
also entered the Lutler's pantry, where a bttValli Was

in primish order.

A. Hall bud the best of this round, which was one of •
mangling kind. It was Bermingham talent a,-most a Lumley's
nming. Hall cleared his course and floored his adversary.
4. Neale bled freely from the nose, and after bitting, Hull
closed upon him, and had a try at weaving. Both men wanted
a slice of Randall's tactics at this game. All the hammering
was tiresome to Hall for want of knack, but superior strength
gave Neale a heavy fall.
5. Both men had out fought themselves, and much hugging
took place, in distress in the two subsequent rounds.

The 4011 was a tame round, but the 10th was the best In the
fight. Neale met his adversary's rush by a left handed facer,
on which he shook his head and utitutmaled, and turned to at

returned to slaughter-work, and fought each other to their last

rush, which sarved him out, and chancerifird it uncommonly.
We need not follow fourteen other rounds in detail There
was much equal fighting, and equal earnest work. Hall was
ever busy, and Neale was artist enough to judge the road to
win, and the goodness of Hall often brought the other's giving
qualifications to • stand still, but we are all stopped in turn.
25th round sent Hall to slumber, or scheming as the dorse
is technically termed. After a manly round, Hall received •
heavy fall, which sent him into • five minute's sleep, and as he
was deaf to time, Neale won the fight in 42 minutes.
It was altogether as brave a fight as ever took
place on Wimbledon Common.
Another good fight followed between a craftsman
and a butcher. Won by the snob.

The last, and a full meeting of the fighting men
and their backers, took place on Wednesday last, in
Mr. Jackson's rooms, for the purpose of receiving
back the stakes deposited for the fight. Mr. Jack-
son having paid Randall 2501. of his own staked
money, and 7501. to others. Martin complained
that it had been reported he did not want to fight,
and to prove to the contrary, he would fight Randall
in 24 hours, for ten sovereigns. Randall said there
was no occasion to fight for that sum, but he would
fight him then and there for the 2501. be had just
rkceived. Martin was silent.

- .
.Spring and Neate.—On this money being given
up, Spring said he was ready to fight Neat; from
101. to 2001. of his own money. In the absence of
Neate, Belcher was not prepared to give an answer,
until the 1501. forfeit was paid. Spring observed
they were both well, and he wished much to try
which was the best man. As to the forfeit, it was
decided that Neate was entitled to it, and should
have it, and any law proceedings should be met by
a subscription.
Hudson and Shellon.—These roan met, and Josh.
addressed Shelton very energetically, said, " Why
an't we to fight, Toni 1" Shelton replied, that he
meant nothing but fighting, and they who talked
about a cross were only ajeard of losing their mo-
ney. It was agreed that this battle should take
place on Thursuay the 28th inst.
Mr. Jackson next produced the epistolatory cor-
respondence from Mr. Elliot, the backer of Spriii,,o
and Martin, and also some anonymous correspond-
ence about crossing, but which threw no light upon
any thing in the cross line.
Carter was desirous of fighting Ward, who, it is
believed, sold the battle to Abbott ; but it was
agreed that he should not disgrace the P.C. ropes
and stakes, or receive any patronage.

A fellow it Nutun4ham, wearing his Majesty's uni-
form. on Saterday last, delivered his wile, (a decent
looking woman), will, a halter round her arm, to a
1114311 dressed in a smock frock, who had previously
agreed to give the vender the vender the sum of ss. for
his Goons, and paid the purchase money on delivery.—

soner was put to the bar, dripping as he was, and gave his
name William Baker. He appeared to be about 18 years
of age.
Henry Goldsmid, Esq. of Crickhowell, Brecknockshire,
stated, that he had been in London, from his seat in
Wales, a few days only, and was residing at present in
Norfolk-street, Strand. That enm ghe had been out
with two young ladies of his family, and on his return
home had scarcely entered the house when lie was
formed that lie was wanted at the door. He found •

and there saw the prisoner, who said, upon seeing him,
" Mr. Goldman', you must give me money, or I will
charge you with an imamate' crime." " Me!" exclaimed
the witness, in perfect amazement, " you filthy wretch.
what do you mean ?" " Yes," replied the prisoner, " you
were in • coach with me on Wednesday night, and I must
have money." The other fellow, who cattle to the door,
said, instantly, " If you don't give hint money, you will
have plenty more of this 2010 This was all the work of
a moment, and witness, having recovered limn his act 0-

and ran sway (as did his companion in a different died:-

Witness pursued, calling " Stop thief !" but no on e
seemed to regard hint until he called out, " He hal
charged me w ith au infamous crhie " and then severa I
joined in the pursuit, and he was taken half butied in the
mud of the river.

George Heath, junior, a waterman, said he heard the
cry, and saw the prisoner jump into the mad of the river,
from Surrey-street steps, and crawl under the archway of
a gentleman's house. He pursued and dragged him out.
This, and several other witnesses, deposed, that the pri-
soner, when asked if he had any charge, of the nature
mentioned, to prefer against Mr. Goldsmid, said lie had
not, and declared he never made any ascii charge.
'rite prisoner, wLeu qnestiened by Sir R. Mune, denied
that he had attempted to charge Mr. Goldsmid with any
crime; and said he InAl seen Mr. G. a few days before,
and asked him to proenre a situation fur bite, and he sent
for him that morning only to know if lie had dune so.
Mr. Goldsmid denied the whole of this ►tory. He re-
marked how strange it was that the prisoner and his com-
panion should be so we'l acquainted with his name.
Sir R. liirnie said, it was au easy :natter to obtain the
name of a gentleman.
Mr.Goldsmid said, that within the last two or three
days he had been accosted by two or three different men
In the street, one of whom said, '• How do you do, Mr.
Goldsmid? How long have you. been from the country ?"
He attributed this( at the time to mere impertinence, but
he now thought differently. It was dreadful that a 1/1411
should be subject to such horrid attacks.
Sir R. Birnie.—l will answer for it, Sir, yon will not be
attacked in this manner again. You have done your duty
too well for them; and I wish every man, under similar
circumstances, would act as you have dune.
Mr. Goldsmid said, he thought that an innocent matt,
who had ally feeling, could have bat one impulse when
such an attack was made upon him, and that was, to seine
instantly the ruffian who dared to accuse hint.
The prisoner was fully committed for trial.

the passage into the parlour, which he had to ascend
by a few steps, and there intruded himself on the com-
pany, to their no small astonishment and alarm.—
Screams for assistance were caused by the gentlemen in
the room, fearing that the visitor nit ht become rude,
but the animal, contrary to all expectations, walked
peaceably mood the room, smelling the deserted glasses
more than once, and, strange to say, at the appearance
of Mr. Stnithers, the landlord, who wore a hairy cap,
walked out of the room harmless, with the exception of
having disturbed the company.
ATTEMPTED ROBBERY IN THE LONDON DOC/lE.--
On Monday morning, about ten minutes after six
o'clock, as M awsun, Kellesley, and Dennis, three watch-
men, were returning from their stations, they observed
three bags full of something, being lowered front the
Dock wall, or rather from the warehouse which adjoins
it. They suffered the bats to be lowered to the groom!,
and then seized them, and the rope by which they were
let down, and took them to the watch-hints•. On exa-
initiation they found the bags contained 167 pounds of
opium, %aloe 3401. They could not discover ilie person
or any of the party, and the gates being shut, they could
not again admission till eight o'clock, when they went
and made known the circunts:ance, and pointed out the
warehouse. The slates were taken off the roof, and to
all appearances a person had gone throuthh, either in or
Out.

I'ito•IDENTIAL ESCAPH.-A few evenings since, th
initiates of the condemned cells were shrown into con
siderahle alarm, in consequence of the cry of—" Help e
help:" proceeding Ironi one of the rooms. The un-
happy men are indolged with a candle at lock-up-lime,
to enable them to read their devotional exercises. In
one of the cells where four men were confined, the can-
dle went out, and in the attempt to relight it, a spark
caught the bed clothes, and in an instant the room was
full of smoke. II id it not been for the prompt inter-
tions of the turnkeys, to relieve the unhappy turn, they
must have been suffocated in a few minutes.

The family of a respectable tradesman in Bb6lloll. was 091
Monde'', last thrown into a stale of great alarm, from the fol-
lowing oircutuetanoe :—One of the apprentices had dissolved
9/1 oases of Epsom salts the preeeding evening, whiob he in-
tended to take early the next morning. A young lady (war
her of the family), wider the playful idea of beverage little in-
nocent fun, threw out the solution of *ells, and in its place pat
a mixture of salt and water, and a little vinegar. The young
man rose at an unusually early hour in the moruiog, and 'frank
off about one ball of this mixture, whets discos snag the dif-
ference in taste—a aaltish acid, the idea of having taken oxalic
acid flashed upon his mind, and produced the most distressing
anxiety. He ran about tbe house in a state of distraction, and
soon alarmed its sleeping imitates ; the remainder of the
mix-
tore was tasted by several of the family—solts it certainly was
not, and oxalic acid it was etrtainly pronounced to be. Still,
however, there seemed a my stery about the business, and it
was thought best, before medical assistance was called in, to
rouse the female joker, who w.ts alarmed in her sleep by load
knocking at her door. She, seeing her purpose was answered.
and unable to emcee! the t'uth in the lira of such evident
alarm, confessed the filet, to the no small joy of ;be youth, who

CORONER'S hi QUILSTS.—•OII Tuesday evettiOg.- an
inquest was held at the Black Cap, in Camden .107"..
before Tllollld9 Stirliwz, Esq. and a respectable jury. t'a
enquire into the cause of the death of William Benson, '
who was k Wed on Sunday evening by the furious driving' •
of a post-boy. It appeared, that Off the entrance into
Camden Town, the post-boy, in trying to pass a war-
horse chaise, increased his efforts from his ordinary pace
of trom six to seven miles an hour, to between nine and
Len tittles, by which means the horse could hot at an
instant be brought op, and the unfortunate Benson. who
consiantlyemployed himself in sweeping the crossing im-
mediately opposite the Britannia, was knocked down in
the middle of the way. Toe postillion used every en.
deavour to avoid the naisfortutte which happened—hut
too late—for before the horses could be slopped, the dc.
ceased fell, and was troJ to death. Verdict—Accidental
death ; and from the most excellent character given of
the post.boy try Mr. Beckwith and and others, tile jury
felt no inclinatiott to levy a deodanil.--Another inquest
was taken ott Wednesday night, before T. Shelton, E -q.
Coroner, on the body of Antonio Michael Dufour, Esq.
a gentleman holding a high station in the customs, at
his late residence, No. 4, Portland Terrace. New Kent-
road. Several witnesses were examined, whose testi-
monies went to shew, that the deceased for the last six
months had laboured under ..n aberratiou of his mental
difficulties. The Coroner stated to the Jury that there
was no occasion for any further evidence, for it had been
proved by turn who were ntcst competent to judge,
namely. the surgeons, that the deceased was insone.—
the Jury anstaisily pronounced a verdict—" That the de-
ceased, in a state of mental derangement, 'inflicted a
wound at the lower part of his belly, which caused his
death."

On Monday afternoon, at two men and a woman, in
a light cart, were luring the corner of Islington, toward*
the City-road, at a sharp pace, one of the wheels of
their cart came iii contact with a stage-coach; which
broke the shafts, and so frightened their horse, that not-
withstanding the exertions of the driver,. he ran away
with the broken cart for sonic distance, until stopped
against a lamp post. One of the men were thrown out
by the first shock, and not moth ituared, the woman-
fell shortly alter, and was struck with great violenire by
the wheel, which went over her. She was takers up
insensible, and carried to a surgeon's in the neighbour.
hood. In this instance, it does not appear that any
blame attaclseato the coachman. Much incobveniencta
and danger arise at this corner where five roams meet,
owing to the narrowness of the road and Ole increase of
carriages travelling at a fast rate. It has been suggested,
that considerable improvement could be made by pull.
ing down the old houses on the north side, and widen.
tug the road progressively Irons the New River.
CORONER'S INQUEST.—On Monday last, an inqeust
was held before C. Jenottett, Esq. at the sign of the
Princess Charlotte, in the Albany-road, Camberwell,
on the body of Mr. John Ballard, who for many years
practised as a surgeon in Walworth, best who had lately
retired front his profersional avocations.—Sarah Ward
stated, that she jived servant with the deceased iu Cants
berwell at the time of his death. On Friday last, the•
15th inst. about two o'clock in the afternoon, she
heard some ladies in ►he house scream out. She
Instantly afterwards saw h"•r mistress, who, in great agi-
tation exclaimed "It is all over:' l'ite witness suspect-
ing totnettimg had happened to her toaster, called in
two men, *Cm were working near the house, and de.
sired them to go up str.irs, which they did. She after.
wards learned that her master hanged hisuself. The wit:-
ness further stated, that she had understood that her
master hail Infirm attempted to destroy himself. —Janes
Jayne Bristowe, of Walworth, surgeon, deposed, that
on the day in question he was scot for to the house of
the deceased, who was lying on the floor in one of the
upper rooms. The witness tried the usual means to
restore animation, but without ell.ct. Ile died by strait-
gulatioti.—Mr. J. King, of Walworth, deposed, that
lie had been intimately acquainted with the deceased for
litany years. The witness had considered the deceased
to be in a low desponding state for some years past, and
had no doubt that he was not in his proper senses at the
Unit he hung hianself.—The Jury, without hesitation,
returned a verdict of—" The deceased haugetl himself in
a state of insanity."

die corpses of two infants, and one grown person, arrived

man to Ix rform the burial service; the antiety of the
