SIBTHORPIAN OUTRAGES 0

--.1.......--, , the
One of the most brutal and cowardly outrages ur-ix
family of Mr. Northhouse, the Editor of the Lineal7l.-0,
zette, has been committed, and as that gentleman 1:;e11,e,,r,e1
by the bribed and drunken blackguards-who returned Cie`",ce
Sibthorp for Lincoln, which has not beea exceeded,siigy
the riots at Birmingham, and the destruction of the Lib'

It appears that an article which was inserted on the-le,
of October in the Gazette, affirming the existence of wifo,
sale debauchery in a certain Conservative Society atevtio
coin, was the cause of this outrage upon the family 0' 01
absent gentleman. We give the following particulars irc
Mr. Northbouse's statemeut : of
" On the sth of November, some of the leaders r $
Colonel Sibthorp's party induced by promises of beeosll

was made, the Lincoln Gazette put into its hands, it de'

light and edification of the surrounding Sibthoreiant tilc
