held the reins in his hand, in consequence of which
they ran off full speed, the Ladies uttering the moss
piteous shticks, until the horses were fortunately
stopped at the bottom of Holborn.hill. The ser-
vant behind the carriage, in attempting to get or,
had one of his legs lacerated in a must dreadful man-

personal injury whatever.

A few days since a man who worked at the Por.
ter Brewery of Mr. Hall, in Worcester, requested a
fellow worktsian to fetal him a little beer, saying
that he believed he should soon be dead; the man at_
cordingly fetched him some, which he had scarcely
brought when the other dropped down dead.
On Tuesday the I%t inst, about six o'clock in the
evening, a most alarming fire broke out at Litton
Cotton Mill, near Tidesweil, Derbyshire, owing, it
is supposed, to a large stove being.nverheated;
Innately the loss sustained is very inconsiderable.
Much praise is due to the
,work.peopie piripjoyed at
the Mill, and to a numl)er of the inhabitants of •
Litton,' for their very great exertions in extin.
guishing the fire, which was upwards of time hours
in completing.

derwent a second examination on the charge :of
swindling. It will. be remembered that the Pri-
stoner had obtained 'Bl. Ir. from Mr, JAMES
Foooe, a cheesemonger, by representing himself
as a wholesale dealer in that line, and as being a
grazier. The Magistrate conceived that the charge
amounted to a debt only, and the Prisoner was dis.
charged ; bilk he was ordered.to be brought up on
a future day, to answer to charges of a similar
lure.
