AT EITHER ROBBERY OR MURDER.—A few evenings since,
as Mr. JAMES BREWSTER PAYNE, of this town, Sheriff"
Officer, was returning from Blundeston, where he had
been on business, when about half a mile from Blundestor,
Plough, he was suddenly attacked, as he sat in his cart, by
three ruffians. One of them struck him a violent blow on
his bead with a bludgeon, and then pulled him out of the
cart; as soon as he recovered a little from the sensation In
found himself surrounded by the three villains who begat,
heating him most severely, but he being a very powerful

and he continued to struggle with his antagonists until r.
gig was heard in the road, and the villains made a precipi-
tate retreat; this turned out to be Mr. W. C. WATLING-
TON, the surgeon, but as Mr. PAYNE was then so faint fron
loss of blood, he could not call out loud enough for that
gentleman to understand him, and lie passed on, the nigh!
being very dark. Mr. PAYNE was removed in danger-
ous state... Norfolk Chronicle.
