SMUGGLING EloAx.—Within the course of this.
last fortnight, a number of the inhabitants of
North Shields have been completely taken in by a
man vending what he termed smuggled gin, in
casks at 121. 6d. per gaHon. In order that his
customers might be convinced of its superior qua-
lity; he spiled each cask, which on 'tasting was
found excellent; and the lovers of the reviving
cordial deemed themselves fortunate in being
able at so cheap a rate to gratify themselves
in drain- drinking. But, alas ! on drawing it
otr,' what must their sorrow and disappoint-
ment have been, when, instead of 'neat :1101-
lands, they found .salt water, with the excep-
tion of aholit halt a pint of gin contained in a tin
tithe, which IViiS artfully fixed to the end of the
vessel, where the importer took care to make his
'spite holes. It is believed, he has, by this decep-
'tion, carried away between 2 and 3001. in cash I !
(Durham County. Adc6rtizer, April 28):.
This season has been almost unprecedented for
the great, fall of lambs. Mr. B. CreaSy, of Frisk-
oey, Lancashire; has, had the following' produce
from 100 ewes :—one ewe, four lamb; 17, three
each ; 78 pairs, and only seven single ones. .
On Sattaday-mortiing as some-workmen were
pulling down a house in Lower Broad-street, Ply-
mouth, they discovered the remains of the corpse
of an infant, in a completely decayed state, se-
creted, between the floor and ceiling of the
first and second stories; There is every reason
to suppose, thtst it must have been destroyed by
its inhuman parent, and placed in this situation
for the ptirpose of concealment. It must have
beast deposited a consider ahie time since, as all
that remained of it were skull and principal
bones ; hut from the size of these, and from the
eiretun;tance of its having bad a shirt on,
it is believed to have been a tiring birth.' A wo-
man lodged in the apartment about four years
and a half since, is suspected ; she underwent an
examination before Mr. Justice Woo‘comaF,,when
strong circumstantial evidence was adduced to inl-
and she was committed for re-exami-
plicate her,
tion.
