Mr•. JOHN PATTERSON, farmer, at Troston, in the
neighbourhood of Dumfries, was attacked near Big-
gar, on the evening of Wednesday se'nnight, and rob-
bed of 0150 and upwards. Mr. P. was returning
from Edinburgh, where he had gone to dispose of his
sheep, and had art ived at a belt of planting, about a
mile beyond the town of Biggar, when three men
darted fr. n. the side of the road, one of whom laid
hold of hi, bridle, and demanded his money. Not
much refilling this demand, Mr. P. endeavoured to
defend himself, and with one stroke of his whip
knocked the foremost villain down ; but the second
robber immediately presented a pistol, which the un•
fortunate man attempted to turn away, and in so
doing received the contents in one of his hands.—
From the nearness of the shot, one of his fingers was
left hanging by the skin, and his hand was otherwise
lacerated in a shocking manner. The robbers escaped.

in public. As his Excellency and suite approached
the stand the band played GOD save the king, when
a simultaneous cheering commenced,which lasted for
some time, accompanied with the waving of hats, &c.
the Ladies handkerchiefs were seen floating in every
direction. His Excellency entered the stand amidst re-
peated cheers,w•here he remained some time,when he
left the stand and walked among his countrymen,who
eagerly thronged around him ; his Excellency shewed
them every mark of attention and kindness. He was
particularly attentive to the eldest son of our lamented
countryman, Mr. GRATTAN, M.P. one of the Stew-
