ATTEMPT AT SUICiDE.---A young, beautiful, and
accompiiShed Lady, about six weeks since, came
from the county of Kent, to the Crown Inn, in
Woodbridge, in consequence of letters she had re-
ceived, to visit an Officer in that garrison. Upon
her arrival she addressed a note to.him, which he
so contemptuouSly replied to that it occasioned an
excessive depression of her spirits. The Lady af-
tertvards walked to Melton, about • a mile from
Woodbridge, and being extremely fatigued, she
went to an Inn, requested a small glass of water,
sat down, and immediately burst into a violent
flood of `tears A respe&able Gentleman present,
solicitous to know the cause of her sorrows, and
offering his services to alleviate them if possible,
she, in the most unreserved manner, related the
whole of her epistolary correspondence with the
Officer, to the entire satisfaCtion of the Gentleman
as to the authenticity of her tale. The Gentleman
took the Lady into his family, wrote to her friends,
and persuaded her to -relinquish every thought
of her treacherous lover. She appeared' particular-
ly comfortable for several weeks, and was introduced
as a visitor to many respeelable families. On Mon-
day last she again came there, in order to take the
coach and return to her parents, who had been al-
most inconsolable on account of her absence; but
after taking farewell of her liberal benefador and
proteCtor, her Mind became agitated, and she went
to the garrison to bid a long adieu to him who had
been the sole cause of her distress—but being re-
je&ed, she accidentally met with Colonel Isimm, of
the Nirtharopton Militia, who knowing her, of-
fered any pecuniary :.assistance she might require,
which she refused, observing Oat " she bad suffir
dent to carry her as far as she wished to gO." He
then accompanied her back to the town, when she
politely thanked him for his kind attention, and
wished him. good evening. Suddenly losing sight
of her from the Inn door, and hearing her, as he
thought, running down the Key-lane; he pursued,
but did ,not, overtake her in time to prevent her
from throwing herself into the river. The Colonel,
however) without hesitation, leaned in after her, but
being very dark he could not find her, till a man
who vas alarmed by his shrieks went with a can-
dle, and, by the assistance of others, with great dif-
ficulty rescued then! 'both from a. wa t ery grave.- -

,Some villains beset, on Sunday evening:, 'about
seven o'clock, the house of Mr. KIRKBY, of Fini-
shade, near Stamford ; but, on- being fired at, de-
camped undiscovered. The• following day a shot
was fired at Mr. K. by a fellow out of Clitf Wood.
as he was working in his grounds ; but the ball
passed through his hat, fortunately, without injuring
him. The neighbourhood was immediately alarm-
ed,but the ruffian escaped. A poor man of Dud-
dington, who had joined in the pursuit, armed with
an old'rusty sword, happened to fall, when the point
entered his body, and occasioned his death °the
next day.
As Mr.' Stratton was driving his daughter in a
gig, on the Miie-end Road, some days since, in at-
tempting to pass between two carts which were
moving in opposite diretilions,, he-ran against one of
them ; the young Lady was thrown under the feet
of the' horses ; but the driver, suddenly stopping 'his
horses, prevented them passing over her body. Mr.
S. was likewise thrOwu out and severely bruised
they are both in a state of recovery.

Some days since as the workmen employed in
_ _

founding a house in frown's-buildings, Spitallfields,
were regaling and hnzz'aing, as is usualon, laying the

last brick, t1;-e. scaffolding gave way, when one [Ban,
named Spurrel, was killed, and five others danger-
"ously hurt.
