AI U 1113E1h—A melancholy occurrence took place
at Rastrick, near Halifax, on the sth inst.,' when Jas. Diggles,
servant tog John Armytage, Esq., of Lower Woodhouse, was
so much wounded as to cause his death. It appeared by the
evidence adduced before the Coroner's Jury, that the unfor-
tunate sufferer, in comparty with John Stott, (gamekeeper to
Sir George Armytage), Emanuel Brook, and Enoch Garside,
entered the White Lion public-house, in Rastrick, where they
found a number of men, some of whom bad been fined fin
poaching, in consequence of the evidence of one of the four ; this
led to some altercation. Late in the evening the latter party
left the house, and were soon followed by the deceased and his
companions, three of whom ( niggles, Stott, and Brook) had
each a gun, who, after having proceeded so far as Toothill
Lane-end, were assailed with a shower of stones Irons the
party who had there lain in wait for them. Brook being lamed,
he deemed it necessary, in self defence, to discharge his piece
among the assailants, but without any material effect. The
ruffians now proceeded to close quarters, and having suc-
ceeded in obtaining possession of the guns, they used the
but-ends thereof about the heads of the deceased and Brook.—
The latter was supposed to be dead, but the deceased, whose
head was dreadfully injured, and a portion of his brains left
on the spot, contrived to make his way home, and lingered till
Monday, the Bth. The other two effected their escape, and
Brook, we hear, is doing well. On Thursday and Friday last,
James Wigglesworth, 1;4., Coroner, of Halifax, held an in-
quest on the body, at Mr. Pearson s, the Star Inn, in Rastrick,
and after a very mature and deliberate investigation, an unani-
mous verdict of Gitilly if Wilful Murder was returned against
Anthony Bray, and of aiding and libelling against John Bray,
Christopher Tiffaney, James Titlhney, James Ellis, Henry
Nuttal, John Dyson, and John Dawson, all of Sheepridge or
Deigliton, near Iludderafield, and in pursuance of which An.
thony Bray, the two Tiffaneys, Ellis, Nuttal, and Dyson,
have been committed to York Castle to take their trials.—
John Bray has been since apprehended, and is now in custody
at Halifax. There is now only one of the men at large.
ROBBERY AND MOST INHUMAN MURDER.—On Satur-
day last, as Mr. James 31arkey, of Redbarn, near Danleer, a
respectable farmer, was returning from the market of Drog-
heda, on horseback, he was stopped between live and six
o'clock, at the mile-stone, not a quarter of a mile from Dun-
leer, by two armed foot-pads, in grey great coats, who deliber-
ately fired two shots at him, one of which entered the cavity of
the abdomen. lie was soon after found on the road, nearly in it
state of insensibility, and immediately conveyedi home to hissat-
flicted family. Surgeon Ball, of the Dunleer Dspensary, having
visited him about six o'clock, found him in such a state as pre-
cluded any hopes of his recovery, and at three o'clock the next
day he stied. It would appear that robbety was not the sole
object of those villains, as Mr. Markey was not deprived of his
watch and some money he had in his possession ; and as he
was a man universally esteemed, and of the moat inoffensive
1 manners, it is difficult to account for the commission of so
diabolical an outrage,. except the robbers were alamed before
they could effect their purpose of plunder. A small bundle
which Mr. Markey carried in hls hand, was all that he lost.—

beams of wood. The stalk was 90 feet high, and 8 feet diameter
at the bottom : it had been finished 2 months ago. Part of the
side wall was also thrown down ; and thedemoliahed part of die
building presents a mass of broken bricks and mortar, and torn
wood and lead. The roof was of the firmest construction, and
from the great quantity of ground which it covers, owing to the
factory being only one story high, It is said to hare coat 1,5001.
Several of the new stalks about the town have been much
shaken by the wind, and rocked a few inches to one side.—
Yesterday, scaffoldings were erected, and the stalks strong.
ly bound with ropes to enable them to withstand the
wind.—About three o'clock on Sunday morning, a large
brick erection at Kelvinhaugh-printfield, belonging to Mr. J.
11141regor, was blown down with a tremendous crash. The
building was 151 feet in length, and 34 feet broad, and about
110 feet of the outside wall is completely demolished; and
many of the joists in the interior are broken. About fifty
feet of the north part of
.the building, that was subdivided
from the rest, and contained the engine-house, still stands;
the wind having come in a western direction, and left
that part entire. In some instances doors were found burst
open the morning by the . force of the wind, that had
been locked the preceeding night. The storm has not been so
severe for many years. Many thatched houses have been partly
unroofed, and hay-stalks dispersed by the force of the wind.
Some slender brick walls have been blown down; and several
masons' sheds, on exposed situations, have been shivered to
pieces. Sonic glass cupolas have been blown in. It is said
that a new building, intended for a public work, has been
thrown down by the violence of the storm at Duntochar.—
Many of the chimney cans and loose bricks and tiles were
blown down ; and it was dangerous to venture out. The wind
was so strong that a person could with difficulty keep himself
perpendicular, and several intoxicated persons were found lying
on the streets who had been blown over. Early in the evening
many of the shopkeepers put the shutters on their windows to
NM the glass. The-Clyd# was very much swollen.--(Glasgow

INUNDATIONS.

rAIMENSE DEVASTATION IW RECENT INUNDA-
TIONS ON THE CONTINENT.

Extract of a letter from:Carlsruhe to the Rev. Dr. ST EIWICIPIF.
dated November 6, 1824.
" A large proportion of the inhabitants of the
Grand Duchy of Baden have been recently
plunged into the deepest distress by an almost
unprecedented inundation. All the rivers and

nor streams of the Black Forest suddenly over-
flowed their banks, and the extensive Valley of the
Rhine exhibited the appearance of an immense
Lake. Persons of comparative affluence are literally
reduced to beggary ; thousands are at this moment
wandering about without shelter and without
food, their houses, together with every thing they
contained, having been swept away ; and as their
stores of provisions are destroyed, the prospect
for the winter is truly appalling, and we must
apprehend a season of famine and disease. Every-
where the most heart-rending complaints are heard,
hut so extensive is the calamity, that although many
come forward with a liberal hand, is is utterly out
of our power to supply every want. Fully con-
vinced of your active benevolence, I venture to
make an appeal to you in behalf of my unfortu-
nate countrymen, hoping, that amongst your
wealthy friends in Loudon, something may be
done towards alleviating their distress. The
smallest donation sent fur this purpose shall be
acknowledged in the Carlsruhe Gaulle, and the
due appropriation of it shall be carefully an-
'jounced I trust the Almighty will incline the
hearts of bent aolent individuals in England to assist
us ; but no one can conceive the height of
misery around us, without ocular demonstration.
The damage is at present estimated at more than.
six millions of florins.* Baden-Baden, a favourite
residence of many English families, has suffered
greatly. Many of the inhabitants of the town
and its environs are reduced to the most abject
want, and for indeed have escaped without heavy
loss. Should the present appeal succeed in awaken -
iug British generosity, I propose to devote such
contributions as may be transmitted to me, to the
more immediate relief of the inhabitants of the
vallies around Badiu.—l remain, Sir, t'our's, !cc.
