MR. ROEBECIC.—We are sorry to find, by the
Sheiteld Independent, that Mr. Roebuck, M.P., has met with

dog, eagerly springing to seize the stick, caught Mr. Roe-
buck's hand in his mouth, and severely lacerated the muscles

temperament, produced fur some days very unfavourable
symptoms; and though we are happy to learn that they
have abated, Mr. Roebuck is still under the necessity of
avoiding excitement as much as possible.
