A ROGUE.—A man, named Joseph Pye, a dagger
and slater, who assisted the Preston Temperance Excursion
Committee to get up the cheap trip to Liverpool on Thurs-
day week, was deputed on Monday last to call upon the
parties who had sold tickets, to collect the money, in order
that it might be paid over to the Railway Company. He
succeeded in collecting about 1801., with which he decamped,
and although two persons were immediately dispatched in
pursuit, he has not yet been discovered. He was traced as
far as Birmingham, and from circumstances which have
transpired it is thought that he has crossed over to France.—
Liverpool Courier.
ICE FROM GREENLAND.—An importation of ice has
just taken place from Greenland, by a ship named the Edger
cumbe, baying on board 110 tons weight of this singular
tide of merchandise.
