DESPERATE AFFRAY.—..4II)OUt eight o'clock on
Sunday evening the village of Hayes, near Uxbridge, was
greatly disturbed by a desperate affray between some hay-
makers, during which several persons were severely wounded
by sithes. It occurred in a barn on the farm of Mr. Batts,
and rose to such an alarming height that the parochial consta-
bles were compelled to call in the assistance of the Bow-street
mounted patrols before they could restore order. Two men,
named Martin Bailey and John Mullings, and Margaret
Bailey, the wife of the former, were eventually taken into cus-
tody and locked up in the cage. Yesterday the prisoners were
brought before Lord Montfort and William crighton, Esq., at
Brantford, when, after a long examination, Martin Bailey was
fully committed to Newgate for trial on the capital charge
(under Lord Ellenborough's Act) of cutting and maiming Jo-
seph Haines and William Bachelor with a sithe. Mullings was
fined 20s. for the common assault, and Margaret Bailey was
discharged.
MYSTERIOUS DEATH IN A WOOD BETWEEN
LEIGHTON AND WOBURN.— On Friday last an inquest was
held before Mr. Eagles, coroner for Bedfordshire, on the body
of a male perion unknown. From the evidence of James Ste-
phens, a plat dealer of Heath and Reach, it appeared that hav-
ing seen a paper stating that a man bad strayed from the
workhouse at Toddington, he and four other men went
to show the wood above-mentioned, where noise had
lately been heard. On getting about thirty yards into the
wood, they found the body of a man quite dead. He had
on a dark blue coat with a velvet collar dark cloth waist-
coat, brown kerseymere trowsers, white handkerchief,
black beaver hat, and a handkerchief in it ; he had a blue
cotton handkerchief under his head, not hemmed. Close
to him stood a bottle half full of beer; in his pocket was a
dark-coloured purse, containing 1 ls. 6d., a few halfpence, and
a knife ; also a biscuit paper, on which was written " H.
Phillips, Esq., Regent-street." A half-pint pot and a hedge-
stake were afterwards found where the body lay, which was
in some sedgy grass and leaves ; the right hand was in the
pocket, grasping the purse. Mr. John Bishop, saddler of
Leighton, deposed that he saw the body, and recognized it to
be that of 'a person who had called on him on the previous
Monday, of the name of William Conder, a partner of Betts,
a saddletree-maker at Oxford. Witness knew him from
dealing with him, and gave him an order on Monday-
He then appeared to be in a very low way, and pleaded great
poverty. Witness gave him nine shillings on account,
and remarked to his wife and journeyman that he did sot
think the man in his right senses. From a previous know-
ledge of the man, witness is satisfied that the body found is
that of the same person. The most remarkable features in
this story are that Richard Barrett was sent to Oxford to give
notice to Conder's friends, and while there, - Condit- himself
came home from his journey. The handkerchief on the de-
ceased, was marked "W. C., No. 2." Whilst at Leighton,
Conder pinched a blister on his right foot, and on examina-
tion of the deceased, a blister, pinched just in the same place,
and on the same foot appeared. Mr. Wagstaff, surgeon at
Leighton, on a post mortem examination of the deceased, could
find no marks of violence on the body, and no appearance of
poison having been taken. The Jury returned a verdict of
" Found dead." •

CAPTURE OF THE LAST NATIVE INHABITANTS
OF VAN DIEMEN'S LAND.—We have been favoured by a gen-
tleman with the following highly-interesting extract of a letter
from. Launceston, Van Diemen's Land, dated January 31
I am just returned from seeing a very interesting but me-
lancholy sight; the last of the unfortunate native inhabitants
of this island; the remainder of those few unhappy savages
who so long kept us in 'error ! They were taken a few days
since, to the westward, and consist of three women, one nun,
and some little children, called piccaninies. One of the pail'',
an old woman, spoke pretty good English, having probably
learnt it some years ago among the stock-keepers. They in-
form us that they are the last of their tribe, once 500 stropp
which was long dreaded under the name of the Big-river tribe.
They say that, by innumerable affrays with the white men,
they were at last reduced to three men, exclusive of women
and piccaninies, and that, a few months since, they were sur-
prised, and two of the men were killed ; that they wandered all
over the island, for the purpose of joining some other tribe,
feeling themselves too weak to exist, and under constant
dread that the remaining man would be killed ; and the rest,
who, it appears, could not get food themselves, starved.
They wandered over the island in every direction, but found no
traces of black men ; they began to despond, and lead a mise-
rable existence, feeling themselves to be the last natives in the
whole island, and that the white men had rooted them out. It
makes my heart bleed to think of it, but they acknowledge
having killed a great many white men, and said they were
very glad when they were taken. This was effected by means
of some Sydney natives. On a shot being fired they all fell
on their faces, and did not attempt to escape. They. are now
merry and happy, and pointed to the vessel which is to take
them off their island with great glee. They are there taught
gardening, agriculture, and the arts of civilized life. We had
long believed the natives were nearly, if not quite, extii ct,
and have not the slightest doubt of the truth of their simple
story. To look on that fine, tall, and somewhat scleinn-lcult-
ing savage, the last of his tribe, filled me with emotions wb:cli
it would be in vain to attempt to describe.
