A few nights ago, Dr. W--, a Medical Gen-
tleman at Brompton, was alarmed between one
and two o'clOck by a noise in front of his house.
He went to the window, when he saw a man
taking the garden gate off its hinges, which be
removed to a neighbouring garden gate, where
he commenced the same operation. The Doctor
dressed iiiinself, and taking a loaded pistol in his
hand, proceeded softly to his neighbour's gate,
while the malt was engaged in taking it off the
hinges, who did not perceive the Doctor till he
seized him by the collar, and found he was the
watchman, who had, for the last twelve months,
been allowed by the 'inhabitants a very liberal sub-
scription to be careful in guarding their gates ;
and the Lady whose gate he was attemping when
seized had been particularly kind in donations to
his wife and family.
On Tuesday evening, as Mr-SOANEs,- of Rus-
sell-.place, was returning home from Pentonville,
he was attacked by two well dressed men, on
leavihg the New load, Somers Town, who de-
,thanded his money Very politely. Mr. S. gave
them'3/. and his watch, and the robbers got
clear off.
