DARING OUTRAGE.

BaisTor„ .Aratr. 12.—Considerable excitement has
been created in One of our most fashionable suburban
districts by a most daring outrage. We withhold
the nsmes of the persons for obvious reasons, but the
facts are as fallow :—ln one of the most healthy parts
near Clifton, in a large handsoinsly furnished house,
resides a highly respectable farmer with a wife pos-
sessed of no ordinary attractions, and they have been
in the habit e f letting- out apartments to families of
respectability. On Thursday a tall, stout, well-
dres,ed man, wearing coloured spectacles, called at
the house, and he represented to Mrs. -- that he
had been recommended to her house by the Rev. Mr.
D---, of Clifton, and he wished to take apartments
for the season for him.elf, his wife, two children,
and three servants. Mrs. -- proceeded to show
him the , apartments on the ground floor, and
whilst examining, them he managed to fish out
from her that, her husband and, the servants were
absent on the farm, and that she was the only person
in the house. He then desired to see the bed-rooms;
but Mrs. told him they were precisely similar
in size to those below. He still
persisted that he
should like to see them, and on Mn.s. telling him
his lady would be the most proper person to examine
the bedding; he still pressed her, and told her she need
not be afraid of him, as he was the father of a family.
Unfortunately Mrs. was thrown, off her guard,
arid went up stairs to show him the bedrooms. Im-
mediately on their entering one of them the ruffian
laid hold of her, and a straggle ensued, in which the
lady's garments were very much torn and her shoulder
was much lacerated. The unfortunate lady, having
escape( i the grasp, of her opponent, rushed to thestair-
case with a view of escaping by the front door, but
her foot slipped, and she was precipitated to
the bottom of the staircase, folloWed by the
on her, and dragged
ruffian, who jumped
her to the door which he secured ,by locking it.
He then dragge'd her by the legs into the par-
lour, where he actually tore her dress and under gar-
ments to pieces. The lady still struggled with her
ravisher, when he pulled a handsome gold watch out
of his pocket and offered it to her if she would comply
with his wishes, but she indignantly refused it. He
then put his hand into his pocket, and from the brutal
manner in which.he had already served her, she,
imagining that he was about to murder her, implored
him not to cut her throat and to spare her honour. It
was his handkerchief, -however, which he drew out,
and with which he proceeded to bind her hands. The
lady still struggled with the ruffian till she became
senseless, and was found by her husband on his return
borne quite inanimate, the brutal ruffian having
effected his purpose and escaped, owing to the insen-
sible state of his victim. The police have been put in
possession of the facts, but the fellow, has as yet
eluded discovery. The unfortunate lady now lies-i
baring since the in
a most precarious condition, outrage
had a succession of hysteric fits. •

increase in the declared value ofour exports 0f556,7461. as com-

over March,l34B. Cotton manufactures again show
.a large in-
crease, while in cotton yarn there is no variation, a further
indication being thus presented of greater activity in that
department of business here than on the continent. 'With
regard to other articles, the only point for remark is the satis-
factory way in which the augmentation in the totals continues
to be proportionably diffused through the various branches
of industry, so as to confirm the belief that
.all classes of the
poslation ;Duet be in fair eroployom,
