LANCASTER, AUG. 21.

About six weeks ago. a person calling himself
Henry Hargreaves, took a house in Bridge-lane, in
this town, ankhad the parlour fitted up as a shop,
Hargieaves's Warehouse," painted on the
shutter. lie soon after left this town to purchase
goods, leaving a Mr. Rey=nolds ai his clerk,,, to
receive the articles, a large quantity of which was
'seen to arrive by different carriers. . On Thursday
-.sennight, the latter Gentleman was seen going to-
•wards the Marsh, having bathed. in the river op-
posite to it two or three daysbefore.. Not return-
ing to the warehouse, the door of which was locked,.
fears were entertained that he was drowned; and
his body was dragged for for .some time, vithour ef-
fed. The principal in the warehouse-not returning,
.it was thought prudent to break' into the house, on
Tuesday last ; When, lo! nothing but two solitary
sheets of blotting paper appeared' in the . whole.
house ; all the goods having been carefully and. se-
cretly removed; and not the least trace of either
master or man has yet been discovered.

Cominitted to our Castle, by Pndsey Dawson,
Esq.. Edward Lerpeniere and, Elias Gibson, charged
with having' fOrged and counterfeited a certain pa-
per Wilting, purporting to be the last will and tes;
tament of William Howarth, late orManchester,
deceased, with intent to defraud the person or per.
sons who are entitltd to the property, of the said
Wm. Howarth ; and Ann Pollard and Ann- Barlow,
for having uttered and published, as true, the forged
and counterfeit will aforesaid.' ' '

Thursday last, one Thomas Proctor, who is up_
wards of 83 years of age, went to a. carpenter in
this town, and coolly bespoke his coffin, for which,:
however, he would not give mo're' than ifs. de-
claring that he had got one made. about four years
ago,
;much cheaper ; but-his brother having since.
died; he had given .it. to him. The coffin was ac-
cordingly delivcred'to the owner, and paid flit, the
next, day. 'This singular chara4er, who is poisessed
of Some little property, hmd his will made a few-
days ago, and would pay only 25. foi. it. lie.has
also given one of his deccased-wife's printedcotton.
gowns to a person to make into,a shroud for him.
A most extraordinary leap was
-'taken by. a horse.
belonging to the 17th:-Light Dragoons, a feW (14,S
ago, on the Greaves„ near this Own': as two )of
the men were ring through:the. fourthAii,isioh of
the sword exetc,ise, on horaehack, fully
-accoutred,
and being at full speed, brie of thetn perceiving a
large hole in-the grotind, just befote him, claps his_
spurs into the horse, and cleared ir. It was after-
wards measured, and found, to be 26'feet. 6 inches
over.

ante to the interest of all men of landed property,
was tried betbre Mr. Justice HEATH and a most
-respectable Special Jury of the County,. several .0(
whom were Gentlemen of legal education. ' The
question was, Whether a payment of /3d. per acre,
in lieu of all Tythe: great and small, in a Lordship:
called Streetfield, in the Parish of Monks-Kirby,
_ in that County, could be supported as a Modus-? ...it
- was proved on the part of the occupier, Mr.. Cook,
by old Witnesses, that no Tythe in Kind had been
ever rendered in the memory of .an living person,
• nor any tradition of Tythe.in Kind being ever paid q'
and a proceeding in a cause in. the year .168-1 .(vhich-
however was not decided), mentioned the payment -
as considered at .that time to be an" old sate of
Tythes; the ReBor insisted upon lankness, and
.produced the taxation of Pope Nicholas so fat back
. as 1291, and some very old jnquisitions and ce::
-tUrns of the value of the place, to spew, that' since,
legal tiinvf memory. the whole Rectory of Monks-
-Kirby, .orwhich Streetfield Ivas only,a part, was but
of the valtie of 211.'63. Bd. and that therefore this
paytneril of zol. in lieu oldie Tythes,Only.of one'
small part, could, not possibly have existed beyond
. leg-hi memory, viz. -RiChatd I. Which was in the
year iiBg,; .but the learned aid very experienced
Judge who had tried die cruse, explained the . Law
n . o-that subjectwith great precision, and informed
the Jury, that unless . they could conscientiously
find that, it was impossible for the paynient to haVe._
been made as a composition for Tythes at thatearly
period, and there was great uncertainly in all the
eVidence.as to,the value of the land, and more so of
the price of corn in those early times, it ought to
he presumed it; favour of the payment as.a-Modus
for that, for the, sake. of quieting possessions .'and
the titles to men's estates, the Law does not coun-•
. tenance the setting aside such ancient payments, hut'
will presume all that can be presumed in 'favour,
,Of
them. The Jury, Without hesitation, found for the
