,22(1 of July, near Farnham. The prosecutor deposed. that he
had lived seri ant to the defendant. In the month of May pre-
ceding, lie had told the defendant that he would not remain in
his service. At this lie expressed 1111101 staprere, and refused
to accept the warning. The ivitness, however, persevering,
the defendant swore he would kill him. Witness, notwith-
standing, did soon after quit his service; and upon his return-
ing huule through part of the laud of the defendant, (a
thoroughfare) on the night of the day stated is the indictment,
and after passing. his lonise about a quart r of a mile, he was
pursued by Mr. I)., eho having adianced salute charge against
him, respecting ducks in his poud, prescuted a pistol to his
face, the muzzle of which he pressed against -his check for
some time. Witness called ont for "mercy and help," and
solemnly protested his teener. A female, who had pre-
viously been with him, now approached, and the defendant
withdrew his pistol. Before lie departed, however, witness
told him he should " hear more of it" the next day.

Mr. Nolan eross.examined the roteentor, but nothing ma-
terial fur the defendant was elicited. .

.-.—
Ann Cranstone, who was with the former witness at the
time, confirmed his testimony. '
Mr. Nolan then contended, that it ors in precervatien of his
property, that the defendant had acted iodic, manner described.
A man being perceived at so uurea►onable an hour upon his
grousd, would naturally excite suspicion; and the act was one,
more for the purpose of intimidating, than of committing the
least pos,ible irkinry.—Tlic Chairman having summed tip the
evidence, the defendant was immediately tuned

A Moosmn.—On Sunday evening fat nine o'clock, as Miss
Caroline Crane, a lady residing in Greek-street. Soho,
was-returning home from a walk, she received a stab with sonic
sharp instrument from a nun, who passed her without speaking
to her. The instrument entered above the knee' and laid open
her thigh as far as the hip, and the assassin immediately ran off.
Surgeon Bell, of Dean-street, being sent for, dressed the
wound ; and it was his opinion, that It would have been mortal,
hut that the length of the bones of .her stays pro:Tilted the in-
str 1111 l ent from entering the abdomen.. We are happy to learn
that she is out of danger. From the slight .view she had of the
villain, she thinks him to he a shin youth of about 0 years of
age.

the College Chapel, Glasgow, was found killed in the
Close in which he lived in the Saltmarket. He had fallen from
