A few days ago a servant gill, about eighteen years
of age, residing in Lupton, near Kirby Loosdale, un-
dertook, for a trifling. wager, to drink eighteen ceps
of tea and eat ten ounces of bread, in ten minute s,
which she dexterously performed in the givt n. i ne.
A fellow lately absconded from the neighbourbocd
of Plymouth, to avoid the interference of 'the Over-
seers of the parish, where he hai left several living re-
membrances ; having disguised-himself a, a leinaTe,
he entered into the service of a highly-respectable
family at Kingsbridge, in the capacity of a ladia
maid, where Ee remained five wcels before-his sex
was discovered!
On Sunday night, as Mrs. PROCTOR, of lily.place Lambeth,
who had just risen from her accouchement, was sitting alone,
Mr. P. being on a visit to a neighbour, and the servant-maid gone
on an errand to a neighbourini, chemist, a fellow, who had entertol
the house by a Mee key, came into the parlour, and demanded
her money. Mrs. I'. went towards the window to give an alarui,
when the fellow seized her, and swore If she did not surrender
her money he would destroy the Went, which was lying by
her. He then placed her is a chair, tied her apron over lite.
mouth to prevent her crying out, and with a cord which he took
from his pocket, fastened both her legs, end tied per baud. be-
hind her. He then picked bet pocket of SO soiereiins aid a
del assts. Whilst this daring violence was going on, Mrs.P.hearl
the voices oh two associates below, who were forcing open the
drawers, whom the ruffian joined, after plundering the parlour
a? plate and other things; but he soon returned, threatening if
she gave the least alarm ke.vrowtd put her to death During this
time the SOTTAIIt returned and saw the two fellows below ; but
supposing they were comsaboot business she took no notice, but
went into) the kitchen. In a moment after the noun catnedown
stairs, and all three departed. The servant then went up and
found her mistress as above described.
Saturday, as Mrs. Moons, wife of Mr. JAMES
MOOR; of Lancaster, was sitting with her child (about
five weeks old), before the fire, a spark flew oat and
fell under the chair; she immediately rose to put it
inside the fender with her foot, and in doing so, a
light shawl which she had thrown over her shoulders
caught fire, and in an instant she was enveloped in
flames. In her terror, she placed the little innocent oa
the sofa, and ran to the kitchen, where, unfortunately",
no person bat 'Mrs. WOODHOUSE, the housekeeper,
was present, who, in the height of her alarm, instead
of rendering assistance, ran into the street, calling far
help; in consequence of which, before any person ar-
rived, Mrs. Moons was so dreadfully burnt, that she ,
lingered in the most excruciating agony till Mon;:ar
evening,whett death put a period toiler sufferings.
Thursday last, as George Orer, a miller, in the es. •
ploy of Mr. Bell, at Weston Mill. was putting a strap
on the shaft of the dressing-machine, his frock became
entangled, and he was dragged round on the spindle
until quite dead. A little boy was the only perm
with him, and he was unable to stop the mill, -which
continued going oa for nearly sweaty minutes; donna
which time the unfortunate min
