ATTEMPTED SUICIDE FROM DISTRESS. Yes-
terday a young female, named Susan Morris, was
brought up in custody by a police constable of the
L division before Mr. WHITE, charged with at-
tempting► to drown herself in the Thames.
A gentleman passing along \Vatetloo Bridge
ought the unfortunate woman by the clothes just
as she was in the act of precipitating herself into
the river on the previous evening. Finding that
she was in a state of great excitement he gave her
into the charge of a police constable, who took her
to the station-house in the Waterloo-road. The
inspector on duty wished to send her home, but she
declared that she was in such a state of misery that
she would destroy herself immediately. The ac-
count she gave of herself was as follows:—She
statel that she was married to a man who for a
length of time had been out of work. They had
been reduced to a ..tate of the greatest distress, and
she had supported him by her own prostitution in
the streets. Latterly lie had got work at Messrs.
Cubirt's, the builders in Gray's Inn-lane, and he
was earning from 25:. to 30s. per week. He had
now, when he was well off, deserted her and left
her destitute. She had applied to the parochial
officers of St. George's, Southwark, for relief, and
stated her case, but they would not take the trouble
to interfere and cause her husband to contribute
towards her support. Under these circumstances
her life was a burden to her, arid she had deter-
mined to destroy herself.
Prom the circumstances which ttan•pired, there
was little doubt but that the unfortunate woman's
statement was perfectly correct, and Mr. WHITE
gave her some relief from his own pocket, and also
a letter to the parochial officers of St. George's; at
the same time directing a constable to go with her,
and, if they did not relieve her, he directed that
she should make an application immediately to the
Magistrates at Ili Police Office.
CAPTURE OF A NOTED THlEF.—Robert Ward,
one of the most notorious thieves that infest the
Survey side of the water, was charged with picking
the pocket of Mrs. Windsor, of No. 13, Granby-
place, New•cut, Lambeth, and robbing her of two
half-crowns, in the following impudent manner :
George Smith, a police constable of the L divi-
sion, No. 106, was on duty, about half past ten
o'clock in ithe evening, in the New-cut, near the
Victoria Theatre, when he observed the prisoner,
and another man whom he knew to be a reputed
thief, loitering abuut the footpath. Suspecting:that
they were after no good intention, he kept a strict
watch upon their movements. In a short time he
saw the prisoner follow the prosecurrix, and from
his mariner he suspected that it was his intention to
rob her. lie got behind him, and seized his arm,
just as he had pulled it out of the pocket of the
prosecutrix, and found two half-crowns in his hand.
He called to Mrs. Windsor, and implied if some
person had not picked her pocket, when she re-
plied that she had lost nothing that she knew of.
He desired her to examine her pockets, when she
said that she had lost two Wf-crowns. Witness
showed her the money, and took the prisoner to the
station-house.

The Magistrate gave the constable great credit
for the vigilance he had displayed, and fully com-
mitted the prisoner for trial.
UNION-HALL.

Yesterday John Brooks, a well-dressed and re-
speetable-looking man, was brought before Mr.
TRAILL, charged on suspicion with having been
concerned in committing various robberies within
the district of this office.

The prisoner was observed late at night in the
company of two reputed thieves, who attacked a
policeman when he attempted to take them into
custody, knocked him down, and then made their
escape. The policeman, however, succeeded in the
apprehension of the prisoner, and when he was
brought to this office it was alleged that he was
suspected of being concerned in a great number of
robberies which were recently committed on the
south side of the metropolis. The robberies were
chiefly effected by a well-dressed man resembling
the prisoner, whose practice it was to call at the
houses of gentlemen when they happened to be
away from home. How or by what means he gene-
rally obtained his information did not appear, but
upon his calling at a house a letter was usually pre-
sented for the occupier, when the bearer of it, caking
advantage of the servant or other person who
opened the door making inquiries, usually succeeded
in carrying off the property that came within his
reach either in the hall or the lower apartments of
the house. Medical men appear to have been the
principal sufferers, for in almost every instance the
thief called when the proprietor was either absent
or engaged in the upper part of his house, and this
gave ample opportunity for robbing the premises.
On a recent occasion Mr. Maryon, the surgeon, was
robbed of a new great coat, in the pocket of which
he inadvertently left a bank note, and the robbery
was effected by a well-dressed man resembling the
prisoner, whose appearance was ca'culated to impose
upon the servant, to whom he had given a letter ad-
dressed to her master, and while she went up stairs
to deliver it the thief' bolted" with the property.
The prisoner is about five feet seven inches in
height, fair complexion, with hair of a light carrotty
colour. He was dressed in a full suit of black, with
a white neckerchief, with ends tied behind; and his
appearance was not unlike that of some of the street
preachers to be met with in town.

THA ME S-P 0 LICE.
MURDEROUS OUTRAGE AND ASSAULT.--Yester-
day Sarah Simmons, a middle-aged portly woman,
residing at 67, Martha-street, Sr. George's, and
Thomas Parker, a black man, were brought before
Mr: BALLANTINE and Mr. BRODERIP for re-exami-
nation, charged with committing a most cruel and
murderous assault on Sampson Haigh, an engineer
belonging to Bath.
The complainant, a tall young man, who was
brought from the London Hospital to give evidence,
appeared in a very weak condition from wounds and
loss of blood. His eyes and face were frightfully
swollen and discoloured, and he had evidently beets
punished in a most dreadful manner. He stated
that he only arrived in London on Monday, and,
after proceeding to Greenwich in search of employ-
ment, he crossed the river and got into the Back-
road, St. George's East, where he made inquiries
for a lodging, and was directed to the King's Arms
public-bowie, where he engaged a bed. He sat
down in the tap-room, but it got so full, and the
people were so noisy, that he requested the landlord
to allow him to get into another room. He was
taken into the kitchen, but that also got full of dis-
orderly characters, who assembled to raffle for a hen
and chickens. From the kitchen he went into the
parlour, which also became crowded with people, who
began singing and dancing. There was a second
for a pair of earrings. He became disgusted at
m allowtherlotse
hn andil toc sitonftlsiobny, and requested the servant
himself
stairs. He had not been there more
a etwornrinut up
es
before the prisoners entered the room, and the wo-
man stepped tip to him, and said lie had picked a
man's pocket of a silk handkerchief, and held two
others before his face. He told her he knew no
thing of them, when she abused him in the mos_

,rocs mariner, and said he desfqved beating. The
black man immediately pulled off his coat and struck
him in the face, and gave him two black eyes. He
was soon covered with blood, and attempted to
defend himself, when the black man and two other
sailors beat him at the woman's instigation in a
most furious manner, and dragged him cut of the
room. They got him on the staircase, where the
woman said, " Murder the rascal." He was then
knocked down by the black man, and jumped and
trampled upon. He was bea,en until he was quite
senseless, and he had no further recollection of what
took place until he found himself in the hospital.
His clothes were torn io ribbons, and every farthing
he had was taken from his person.

Mr. BRODEMP, after commenting on the brutality
exercised by the prisoners, ordered them to find bail.
themselves in 801. each, and two sureties of 401
each, to answer the charge at the Sessions.—They
were committed in default.

During a thick fog, one night last week, a
flight of starling., attracted it is supposed by the brilliancy
of the new light on the Girdlene-s, flew sgain•t the plate
alas of the light-house with such force that about fly,
dozen of them were found dead nest rr.orning.—Edinburyh
Ewening Courant.

The devotedness of Madame de Lavalette has
recently been imitated at St. Pelagie in a circumstanct
which offers less inteteit and gravity. It does not indeed
relate to a prisoner condemned to death, but to one de-
tained for a debt of 10,000 f. A lady supplied him with
clothes wherewith to make his egeape. The police were
instantly placed at the disposal of M. Lepreux, director of
St. Pelagie, who is responsible to the creditor, and obliged
to produce either the debtor, or the sum for which he wa-
imprisoned.—.French Paper.

AWFUL SUDDEN DEATH.--We regret to
state that at three o'clock on Saturday Garrett O'Moore,
Esq., a most respectable gentleman of large fortune in
the King's County, and county of Clare, while in con-
versation with a salesman in Smith&ld. dropped suddenly
down and instantly expired. Immediate aid was procured,
but the vital spark was extinct.

AN ACTIVE SCHOOLMASTER.—According
to the German Peedagogic Magazine (vol 3, p. 407),
died lately in Swabia a schoolmaster, who, for 51 years,
had superintended ,n institution with old-fashioned severity.
From an average inferred by means of recorded observa-
tions, one of the ushers has calculated that, in the course
of his exertion, he had given 911.500 canings, 124,000
floggings, 209,000 custodes, 136,000 tips with the ruler,
10,200 boxes of the ear, and 22,700 tasks to get by
heart. It was further calculated, that he had made 700
boys stand on peas. 600 kneel on a sharp edge of wood,
5,000 wear the fool's cap, and 1,708 hold the rod. How
vast the quantity of human misery inflicted by a single
perverse pedagogue
INCREASE 01 INCENDIARY FIRES IN
NORFOLK.-Since my last I am sorry to say that the
number of incendiary fires has frightfully increased in this
county. We have usually had to record one or two every
week, but this week we have had no less than five. There
was one on Sunday night, which broke out in a large
barn at Wormer), the property of Mr Armstrong ; but
this, with great exertions, was. got under, and the incen-
diary taken into custody. Atiother on Monday, at Mr.
Thomas Hue's, of Corpusty, which burnt down a straw
stack and barn doors, but by exertions was preventedirom
proceeding any further. Gilbert Reynold., a labourer in
the villave, is in custody on suspicion. This is the third
o❑ Mr. Hare's premis-s, and the 32d in the hundred °I
Son h Erpingham within the last three years. A third
on the Wednesday evening, at Swaffeld, in a barn belong-
ing to S. Kemp, Esq., by which the barn, stables, and
out-buildings, with a quantity of oats,were totally destroyed.
A fourth on the Thursday night, on the premises of Mr.
J. Cross, of Tower Eariliam, near Norwich, by which a
straw stack, standing quite in the midst of other stacks,
was destroyed. It was doubtless the intention to burn
the whole. And there has been another zt Mr. T.
Gaskar's, of Hmllington, near Lynn, which destroyed a
stack containing about six lasts of fine wheat. There are
reports of others, but which we cannot depend upon.
For the fire at Mr. K. Wright's, of Sculthorpe, a labourer
of the name of Groom, living in the village, has been
apprehended, and fully committed for trill. He is a
young man.

THE VINTAGES.—The produce of the vine-
yards, both in France and Portugal, has been very shun-
dsnt this season. The quality of the French vintage is
not so fine as last year. The Portuguese vintage is of
remarkably fine quality ; but it has been wasted in gather.
ing in some instances by reason of the disturbed state of
the country. At Regoa, the chief town in the U,,per
Douro, wine is selling at 21. 10s. to 10/. per pipe ; but in
consequence of the difficulty of transit, occasioned by the
internal war, it is as high as 30/. to 501. per pipe at
Oporto. The vintage has been very unfavourable in
Hungary.

Lusus NATUR/E, OR SIAMESE LAMBS.
—O❑ Thursday evening last, Mr. Thomas Teasdale, of the
Shakspeare Tavern, brought to our office a singular pro-
duction, created by one of those freaks of nature which
baffle both naturalists and philosophers. The head and
neck were a portion of one lamb, the former badly shaped,
the neck enlarging much at the breast, where there are
four perfect legs, two in front and two behind. At the
shoulder the substance divides, and behind this the bodies
of two lambs are perfect and separated from each other,
the four hind legs and every other part in proportion.
The lambs are both tup., or of the male species, and
yeaned by a black faced ewe, at Sandford, a small hamlet
midway between Appleby and Brough. The time for par-
turition seems to have been completed, as it or they ap •
pear to be the usual size of the mountain lamb when first
yerned. The shape of the thing, when it stands before you
would remind the farmer of the stitch harrow, having a
small pig snout or long pointed nose; it continues to in-
cri-ase in breadth to the extremity of the two bodies.—
Westmoreland Gazette.

EXTINCT VOLCANO IN ZANTE.•--In a
valley near the sea is a vast depression, shallow and cir-
cular, resembling the crater of an extinct volcano. Scat
tered through this are various well., from the bottom of
which there is a continued ebullition of petroleum, a
substance exactly resembling vegetable pitch, and used for
all the same purposes. Su early as the time of Hero-
dotus this was employed and sought after as at the pre-
sent day. " I saw," says be, " with my own eyes
pitch emerge from a lake of water in Zacynthus, of
which there are many in the island. They collect the
pitch by means of a branch of my rtle tied to the end
of a lance. It forms a fragrant bitumen more pre-
cious than Persian pitch.—(llei od in Melpomene.) A
circumstance connected with the natural history of the
island has given to these wells a singular interest.
Tradition says that the site which they occupy has
been a volcano, but the sea, having burst through one
of the sides, had extinguished the fire. Before that period
this and the neighbouring islands had been free from con
vulsions, the elastic gases generated by the inflammable
matter having escaped through the aperture of the crater
as through a safety tube ; but since that time they have
been pent under the superincumbent mass till, acquiring
an expansive power which became irresistible, they
forced their way through every obstruction, rending
open for themselves various spiracula or breathing
apertures, and in their potent progress shaking the
islands to their very centre. Of the-e passages the
pitch wells were the permanent indications, and the
petroleum and other inflammable substances, were
formations of the volcanic matter still existing in the
interior; and their communication with it was as-
certained by the singular fact, that every shock of an
earthquake was preceded by the moie violent ebul-
litions of these wells, which always indicated to the
inhabitants, like natural barometers, the rise and
Fall of these dangerous gases, and warned them of the
approach of the earthquake. This was the case, the
inhabitants say, in the violent concussion which shook the
island in 1514, which was so terrible that it split t'.e
mountain at the back of the town, on which the fortress
was built, from top to bottom. Since that time there
have been, besides minor shocks, some great earthquakes,
and at such intervals as to form something like regular
periodical events ; so that the Z altiots offirm that they
expect the return of a violent earthquake about every
forty or fitty years, which period it takes for the explosive
gases to sccuovlsteo-.4mulit.

Prr among the tnost nienied in thiq country. Tt'e
Court-room has been crowded every day, Sunday excepted
rum el.-yen a. m t” t.n p.m The argno,ent. of

S. A. Foot and D. B. Ogden for, and Messrs,. H. Mame

,w among the greatest efforts at our bar. Mr. Foot spoke
:ix, Mr. Ogden two, Mr. Staples three, and Mr. Max.=
yell five hours. The amount of goods obtained, the

,espectabdity of the parties and their friends, and the array
of legal talent, all contributed to the eeneral interest. T4e
Recorder made one of the ablest charges that has been
elivered in that Court for many years. He summed up
the cause with great impartiality, and gave a most clear
mud minute history of the testimony ; after which he
.xpounded the law with great talent. His charge occu-
pied in the delivery nearly two hours. The Jury were
'it twenty-five minutes, and returned a verdict of Not
Guilty.

thoitcrA.—The general election is now in progress. or
rather just finished in this State; and the retu'ns so far
:s received show 4 great preponderance of votes in favour
of the Nullification candidate.

LATER FROM Mexico.-The ship Mason Burney, at
'I is port from Vera Cruz, brings letters and papers from
that place to the 24th, and from the city of Mexico to the
14th ult. There had been no recent moverwints of the
divisions of General St. Anna and the rebel forces under
Arista and Duran ; the former was preparing fi,r an
ittack. The cholera had nearly subsided in the capital,
and also at Vera Cruz. No other news of anv moment.
LATER PROM Tioirrico.—The schooner Two Brothers,
at New Orleans, from Tampico, which place she left on
'he 23d of September, reports that entire trangnilLty
urevailed in that place at the time of her departure ;
bit that the interior of the country was still in comma-
'ion, notwithstanding the reported defeat of the rebels.
The deaths from cholera in the city of Mexico, are
stated to have been no fewer than 22,000 in the short
pace of thirty five days ! It was still raging at the
'atest accounts, but in a milder form, and more susceptible
if medical treatment.

Flioll CA RTZIAGENA.-The packet brig Athenian ar-
rived yesterday from Carthagena, having left that port en
he ht inst int. We are favoured with the following ex-
tract of a letter from an American gentleman of great
lisrinction, resident at the capital of New Grenada, to
S, E. Burrows, Eq., of this city, by which it app-ars
hat a serious conspiracy had been formed to anniorlate
the present Government, which, however, had been
effectually suppressed:—
" BOGOTA, SHPT. 1, 1833.—The principal news I
have to communicate is the particulars of the late conspi-
racy, which was more extensive than at first anticipated.
" The object of the conspirators was not only to murder
President Santander and his Cabinet, but also to massacre
-very foreigner without distinction ; and I have no doubt,
had they succeeded, it would have bees a most bloody
resolution. But I trust the danger is over ; the trials are
closed, and in a few days we shall know the fate of the
conspirators.

C° The Commissioners from Venezuela have reached this
place, and those from the Equator are daily expected ; so

,hat I hap, in a f,,w month 4; our cit'ienswillhave some

-hence to have their claims on the Government of Cnlum_
bia settltd. The division of the debt will be in proportion
.o the population of the people in the various states of New

_
Grenada, Venezuela, and Equator."
Extract of a letter, dited Carthagena, Oct. 1,1833 :--.
" My dear Sir—The Medina arrived oat on the 14th,
and the Athenian has been detained for some time, in
consequence of the scourge of the yellow fever, that has
visited us, after an absence of seven years. It is a sin-
gular fact, that every seven years this scourge visits us."
LATEST FROM Mirlico.—From the Texas Ga_'ett
Extraordinary, of the Bth September, received at the
Builetin Office, by Captai❑ Brown, of the Sabine :
EXTRA.—By the schooner Sabine, W. Brown, master,
ten days from Tampico, I have received the Gazette de
Tampico of the 14th, 17th, and 21st install', front
which I make a synopsis of the news from the interior of
our country. The cholera had been very fatal in Tampico,
and had carried off hundreds since the let of June ; it
had made its appearance among the troops, and about
2 900 of Santa Anna's troops had died, and it was mak-
ing great havoc in the opposing army. Duran, who com-
manded the rebellious army in San Lui, had declared for
Santa Anna.

It appears by the papers that the Vice President Ferias
is in the exercise of the powers of President, and that his
acts are dictated by jus ice and a devotion to the close of
liberty. The Gazeta breathes forth principles advocating
the liberty of mankind ; and its independence should re-
ceive the support of all the lovers of liberty. A few such
pipers dispersed through the country wonld produce a
radical change in the minds of the people.
The cholera had made its appearance in Guanaiouto--
indeed it was spreading through the whole country, and
making great havoc.
Arista is said to have withdrawn from the rebellious
party and joined the republicans.
Gen. Piedras, of Nacogdoches memory, bail been taken
by the Santa Anna party, and banished the country for ten
years. There can be no doubt that Santa Anna and liberal
principles will predominate, and the tools and sycophants
of party will have to succumb, and liberal principd s will
prevail.

Gen. S;inta Anna, in an official article of the 29th July,
says, " The war is at an end, tranquillity will soon be
restored."

In looking very carefully over the papers received by
the Sabine, I feel warranted in saying, that the cause of
Salta Anna and l.berty ;oust prevail.
Long may we enjoy the privilege of thinking and
acting for ourselves.

G. B. COTTEN. late Editor of the Texas Gazette.
Brazoria, Sth Sept. 1833.
By the Brazoria Advocate of August 5, it appears
that the cholera wag then raging in that place, and most
of the inhabitants have deserted it. The Advocate of the
sth says—'• In consequence of the very general suspension
of business, we have concluded to stop the press a short
time, to enjoy with our household the benefits of sea bathing
for a few wetks. The printers are so debilitated that we
have considered it prudent to publish only half a sheet, for
the purpose of inserting some advertisements that were
desired."

LATEST FROM COLUMBIA.--We have received our
Bogota papers to the s,th of September. The trial of the
conspirators in the plot of the 23d of July was opened
with publicity.

The Council of State, on the 23d of August, extended
the extraordinary powers conferred on the Executive do
that em,rgency, for thirty days longer.
The Council of State were occupied up to the end of
August, chi,fly on the new penal code.
The ass twins of the English family of Woodline, near
Carthagena, have been arrested. They are four foreign
slaves, belonging to the estate on which the murders were
committed.

General Santander has ordered an examination to be
made into the case of the French Consul of Carthagena,
who has been imprisoned on a private prosecution. The
Government Gazette regrets the occurrence, but states
that the French ambassador has been freely communicated
with, and that there is no danger of any misunderstanding.
The President, under the law authorising an increase of
the corps of the National Guard in case of serious danger,
has ordered the organization of a new squadron of cavalry in
the province of Bogota, under Colonel Neiva. It appears
that prudence requires proper precautions, although perfect
tranquillity reigns in the country.
In consequence of an application made by the Go-
vernment of New Grenada to that of Venezuela, to
prevent the machinations of Tornas Fernandes, at Merida,
to produce difficulty and derision between the northern
provinces, the latter have ordered inquiries to be made
and measures taken to prevent any illegal correspondeace
for such objects.

A letter from General Santander of April last is pub-
balled, in which he proposed to the Congress to restore
to their rank all officers who served in the army of lode-

LATEST FROM CAPTAIN BACK..—On Thuraly last,
four bark canoes, belonging to the Hudson's Bay Coat
pang, arrived at La Chine, near Montreal, from the inte-
rior, with passengers belonging to that concern.
The latest accrunts of Captain Back, by these arrivals,
are up to the 10th of July, from Cumberland House, re-
porting favourably of the health and progress of the whole
expedition. Captain MA and Dr. King were proceeding
in a light canoe, followed by two boats, the last bearing
their luggage, provisions, and other appointments. Hi,
despatches for England were to go by Hudson's Bay.
New ORLEANS, Ocr. S.—Yesterday we received tl.e
four mails that were due. There were four arrivals from
Europe, furnishing accounts a few days later, but nothing
of an important nature.
There were eight interments in the Catholic burying
ground, and eleven in the Protestant, on the Ist instant.
Oa the 2d, fourteen in the former, and six in the latter.
