ROBBERY AND Muansa.—This morning, between
three and four o'clock, as a waggon loaded with
goods, was coming down Oxford fireer, towards Sr.
Giles's, it was followed by four or five ill looking fel-
low.. When it arrived at the top of Drury-lane, the
villains cut open the back part of the waggon, and
were proceeding to carry off Game of the property,
when the drivers gave the alarm to the watchmen.—
The first watchman who came up was immediately
knocked down, and (tabbed with a knife, or other
(harp inftrumenr, in feveral places of his body
Several perfons were now artraeted to the (pot by
the noife • and two young men, who came to the af•
(c ante c.f the waggoner, were nabbed in the back
by the mitcreants. The wagg tner was:alio (tabbed
and Coon dropped down on the flreet from the lofs of
blood. Three of thofe unfortunate perfons were
conveyed to the Middlefex Horpital. The poor
watchman is Paid to be dead, and but little hopes
are entertained of the recovery of the other three.
We are lorry to add that nrtwithflanding every exer-
tion of the watchmen and fpatators, all the villains
made their cfcape, by running off into the /rations
alleys in the neighbourhood.
FATAL Accuser/T.—Some gentlemen walking in
the fields, on Sunday night, about half part eight,near
the City Conduit, Bayfwater, heard at a diflance a
very confuted noire, and could dil*ingui(h the words
Help ! drowned !" They immediately ran to the
wooden bridge, on the Paddington Canal, near the
head, where there were a great many people, and
found that the Uxbridge Packet boat had run againß
a pleasure boat, in which were four young men; that
three were got out, and the other was (till in the
water. Two boats immediately went out with a hay. i
rack, a landing in:, and boat hooks, and in about-,
three minutes a drag was brought ; one of the young
men could twin), and dived reverel times after him,
and another young man threw off his coat and.waill•
coat, and went in, but it was not tilt about twenty
minutes after that the body was got out, quite dead;
and it was immediately taken to a houfe in the neigh.
bourhood. The name of the unfortenate yoong man-
proves to be William Thompfoni of Chapel court;
