EXTRAORDINARY' ROBBERY.

On Saturday night Mr. IJATDON, a respectable
farmer, w,is attacked in his stable, near his hone,
which are briween Ripley and Croydon, Surrey,
by lour men, who, after heating him until they
believed him to be dead, robbed him of bills to
the tnonnt of 'BOl. and a silver watch. The I°l-
- are authentic partiQular.4 Of this atrocious

Case

On Saturday Mr. Haydon went to Guilford to
receive some money : he received four 10/.•Guild-
foi d hank-notes, of the following numbers-1981,
1985,, 1996, and. 2020. Lie set off on hiAseb'ock
froM Guildford to riis house near Ripley, about
•nine o'clock in the evening, and rode very
,slowly
'ail the way home, which is near. seven miles in

distance. Air. Elaydon arrived at his stables be-
tween ten and eleven o'clock, and
.was in the act
of taking the s4ddle and bridle from his horse,
when two men pushed open the stable-door, and
roshed towards ;he put himself in an attitude
of defence, and scuffled for some time with them ;
b.eing a Very:powerful man, he was able to con-
tend-with them, and had nearly overpowered them,
when two others entered the stable; one of them
gave hint a tremendous kick in the lower part of
his,.back; avid brought him to the ground; while
'he was on the ground, he received blows and
kicks from the inhuman wretches until he.became
totally insensible ; while he lay in that state, they
rifled hint of the a!)ove-mentioned notes and
Watch, and decamped, leaving him, as they sup-
posed, past " telling tales.',' Between 11 and 12
the Servant, who was sitting up for Mr: Uaydon,
went to the stable, and found his master in the
situation described ; be had still the paper in his
possession upon which he. had written the nom-

avers of_the notes, and on the following day (Sun-
day) having considerably recovered from the ef-
fects ortlit treatment he had received on the pre-
ceding night, he sent to the Guildford Bank, and
stopped payment of the Dotes. The villains were
not at all disguised ; Mr. H. had a view of all
their faces. Air. Haydon is in a dangerous situa-
tion.

CONNUBIAL ihriirre-eenTly
.appeared
in Macclesfield Market, with his wife; whom he
brought there for sale, with a halter round her
neck ; a bargaini was soon struck, and she was
disposed- Of for a sum somewhere between three
and four shillings ; which coming to the ears of
the worthy Magistrate of that Borough, he'catis'e&
theM to be apprehended, and the husband; wife,
and purchaser (who strove to show he was only
au agent in-the business), have each been corn
mitted to the Middlewieh House of Correction,'
until the,next Quarter Sessions of the county of
Chester.

DREADFUL ACClDENT.—Saturday as Mr; and
Mrs.' Alorecroft'were riding through Holloway in a
gig, the vehicle got entangled with a dray, near
the brewhouse, and it was -overturned, Both
were throWn out, and the head of Mrs. Morecroft
was thrown under a waggon passing, and crushed
to atoms. What renders the case still more at-
flictiUg, is, that the lady was -eight months gone,
with child..

. EXTRAORDINARY SUICIDE.—Last night -an In-
quisition was taken. before THOMAS STIRLING,
Esq. Coroner _ fur, Middlesex, at the Genera!
Townshend, Opposite 'Park-lane, Okford•-stre'et,
on' the body of John Parks; aged 24 years, groom
to Mr. Bartley, of Oxford-street. It appeared
in evidence that the deceased was very imperti-
nent to his master's son yesterday week, and was
discharged by-his master; he was to leave the si-
tuation on Saturday night. On the Friday night
lie was very low and desponding, and said to his.
fellow servant that hp might have his brushes, for
he should have no further use for them ; on the
next morning the deceased took some acid Of sit-
gar, a deadly poison, and shortly after was taken
very ill; and in extreme agony ; he went into the
stables while in such torment, and hung himself
with a rope, which he tied to the beam' ;. he was.
found In about a quarter of an hour after by his
fellOw servant, who cut him down.
,Mr. Elsgow,
surgeon, of_ Park-street, came immediately, and
pronounced him to be dead. .Iterdiet.-".Hinged
hiMself in a state of insanity."

Yesterday a body, which the•tide cast in, was
picked up among the rocks to the east of Brigh-
ton, supposed limn the clothes about it to be that
