A NEW ACCOMPLISHMENT.—The following tutu •
crous phrase appears in the petition of the Canterbury Town
Council, for the abolition of the punishment of death—" except
in cases of wilful and accomplished ( ! ) murder."
HIGIIWAYNIEN.—The taste for atrocities of this
description, aggravated by the most cruel and wanton ill-treat-
ment, has not subsided since the chief perpetrators were de-
tected. Two youths, (aged 16 and 17 only) named James
Hyde, and Thomas Owen, are co emitted to our gaol for
trial, charged with having, on the 26th of last month, about
eight o'clock at night, assaulted a poor old man, named Hol-
linshead, on the highway, near Shiffnal, and after 11-rocking
him down, and kneeling on his throat till they destroyed all
sensibility, robbing him of his watch, chain and seals, and a
little bundle containing some seeds, and other matters he bad
brought from market. The old man was so bruised and in-
jured, that he was unable till last week to be conveyed before
the Magistrates, to give the necessary evidence to commit the
prisoners. Three wandering vagabonds, pretending to be
shipwrecked sailors, have also been committed to gaol for trial,
charged, not with highway robbery, but with breaking and
entering the house of Mr. James Huxley, of Prees, and stealing
a large ham, and a cloak and shawl.—Shretasbury Chronicle.
