A Shooting Match between the Artillery Jagers
and the Ist Surrey Riflemen took place on Thurs-
day, at Montpelier Gardens. It terminated in fit:'
your of the Artillery litters; but the Ist Surrey,
though vanquished, had nothing to regret. . It was
no small hondur for so young a corps to have entered
the lists against a company so . remarkably expert.
The distance at which they stood from the target
Was 150 yards. They fired every shot man incum+
bent position. The Ist Surrey fired very we 11,,., but
the Artillery Jagers scarcely ever missed;• their.
bullets were as unerring as the shafts of Fate. The
proof (riven by 'the Artillery Jagers of what may be
done byb constant practice, will, wed trust, excite the
emulation of every forps of Riflemen in the king-
dom. When the cAnest was ended, the two CQln—
panies, with their Officers, sat down to a sumptuous
dinner, and passed the evening with the utmost har-
mony and conviviality. • .

There is a slender young woman, of fashionable
appearance, who goes by the names of ?Spencer,
Walker, Thompson, and many other names, hiring
lodgings in several places about town, and after-
rards robbing them. In New-street, St. George's-

Last week David Price was committed to Here-
ford Gaol, for breaking into the house of David
Jones, of the Parish of Michael-church, Eskley.
The circumstances attending the apprehension of
this rem are rather curious : Mr. Jones returning
home from Hereford, missed his watch from the
mantle-pieee,' end on finding tiffs eife bad notgot it,.
they proceeded to inspeft the house, when they dis-
covered a window open, by which the depredator-
had gained admittance 'Jones then desired his wife
to go up stairs, and examine a large chest in their
bed-chamber, to ascertain whether any clothes it
contained had been taken out; she returned in a few
minutes trembling, and informed him a man was in
the chest, on which, with admirable presence of
mind, he instantly ran up stairs, followed by his
wife, and getting on the lid of the chest, kept ,it
down, whilst his wife pLiced upon it whatever things
of weight presented then Aves to her, and thus
they kept watch over their prisoner till an opportu-
nity 'occurred of apprehending him. During the
time they- were watching over their Prisoner the
friendly ticking of the watch informed there their
property was and the whole was found upon
