hood of Chelsea :—Two eats having committed depredations UM the
larder, by gratifying their appetites with a fowl, the fionstkeeper
ordered a footboy to destroy tht m. n accomplishing the dextrine-
tion of the last ordinal, he found considerable difficulty in its piteous
moans, while tinder the bands of its executioner, operated in au
poWerful a turoner on the nerves of the lad; that he observed to his
fellow-servant, .4 he felt so shocked at killing the cats, that he motray
never kill another as long as he lived." A short time after this ors.
nervation. his countenance became changed, he was enable t

RECENT ATTEMPT TO STEA T. inE Cnoww.—Tuesday MARGARET
MoortE was brought before the MAgistrateS of Lamheth Police Office,
and undervi•ent a final examination, charged with attempting to at► all
the Crown from the Tower.---A number of respectable persons, how-
evpr, who had known the prisoner several years, were in attendance, to
prove thin she was deranged in her wind. This being fully ptoved,
she was immediately discharged.
The thunder-storm which passed over the metropolis nn Thursday,
about two &Clock, was n►atked in its termination by an awful and most
violent explosion, which took place immediately over two houses its
Frtderick•plaee, Goswell.etreet•roed : the electric fluid took its three•
tion through, chimney of No. 13. causing havoc in most of the rooms,
but particularly in the parlour, where it destroyed a looking-glass VA
other artteles of furhiture : it then forced its way throne) the patty-
wall, and eventually sub tided in the kitchen of No. 14. The *lawn
excited in the neighbourhood was considerable fur the fate of the init..
bitants, but, we are happy to states they have providentially escaped
without personal injury.
