WILLIAM MARSHALL, of Thorverton, 20
years of age, terminated his existence on Thursday last, by
shooting himself through the head with a pistol.—Exeter
Flying Post.

A SECURE DEPOSIT.—A farmer, who does
not reside a hundred miles from Biddulph, attended the
late Aahhourn fair, and wishing to snake come purchases,
he took with him above 1001. which, for security, he plac-
ed in his boots. In the evening he made rather free with
the glass, and being tipsy, he forgot to withdraw his money
from his boots, as well as his leg.. lu the morning the
boots appeared, but the money was missing,— Winchester
Herald.

At Winkleigh, on Saturday last, a labouring
man, of the name of SAMPSON', hung hiinself with a
willow rod : no cause can be assigned for so rash -an
act ; but he and his wife lived very unhappily, caused, it
is rumoured, by his better half being jealous of her own
mother !—Exeter Flying Post.

SHAMEFUL INHUMANITY.----011 Friday last
a boy was sent to the country with an ass, to bring home
some household articles for his master, and, when passing
along the Mound, two beings in human shape inflicted a
wound 10 inches in length and sheer to the bone on the
poor beast. The police heard of the circumstance, traced
out and secured the delinquents, 'and though they were
clearly convicted of this gratuitous inhumanity, they were
allowed to escape with tines so trifling, that it is needless
to specify the amount.—Scotsman.

INCEST.—At the Rochdale petty sessions, on
the 14th inst. a:young woman, named ANN WHITWORTii,
aged 22 years, was brought up by the overseer of Wardle,
to affiliate a child born about 21 weeks ago. She refused
at first to take the oath, stating that the child never would
be chargeable to the parish. Being committed for con-
tumacy, she agreed to affiliate the child, and was again
brought into court for that purpose, when she were that
her own father, JAMES WHITWORTH', was the'father of her
child !—She had another child about six years ago; when
she was herself a child, by the same unnatural monster ! !
The incestuous wretch was committed to prison fur twelve
months as a lewd woman ; but the far more guilty par-
taker of her crime, goes at large and unpunished. ,

REMOVAL OF TILE PUBLIC OFFICE, Bow-
STREET.—In consequence of the -very confined and incon-
venient state of the present Office, it has long been in con-
templation to erect a building for the purpose on a more
enlarged scale; and we believe that.a piece of ground was
actually purchased for the erection of a new edifice, mere
ill character with the important proceedings of the principal
Metropolitan Police Office; but for some reason or other,
no step has been taken as yet to carry the contemplated
object into execution. In consequence, however, of repre-
sentations which have been made to the Committee now
sitting on the subject of the state of the Police of the Me-
tropolis, Mr. NAstr, the Government Architect, was sent
to Bow-street Office 'yesterday' by Mr. PEEL, the Chair-
man of the above Committee, and after having been shown
the
premises by,,Sii RICHARD Butxtx, he expressed his
surprise that better accommodation had not long since bcen
afforded, . He proMised Sir RICHARD RIRME,- however,"
that the new building, which is forthwith to be commenced,
should make amends. for the defects of the -old,,but added,
that before any plan should be adopted, he would take care
to consult with the Magistrates.
