PO.
Pcuaneatwo Vlssitt.s.—A fyftem of plunder-
ing wrecked veffels on the different parts of the
coaft has been kept up for many, years, and is
now arrived at an alarming pitch. The following
is a very daring and Angular cafe of the kind:—
On the beginning of this month a Dutch veffel,
laden with 100 calks of fugar, 130 calks of pot-
allies, together with Tome printed calicoes, and a
few cafes of mufical inflruments, failed from the
river, and on the lath fprang a leak off Whittla-
ble. About three miles from the fhore the veffel
made fuch a quantity of water in a ihnrt fpace,
having fluted a plank, that' it was ufelefs to en-
deavour to keep her afloat. The Captain and the
crew therefore betook themfelves to their boats,
and the weather being fine, they reached the fhore
in fafety. The veffel funk (portly after they had
quitted her, but the place not being very deep, the
hull of the Chip was only a few feet below the fur-
face of the water, arid the mails and rigging roil
mained out of it. At Whititable there are few ,
inhabitants but what live by the plundering of
wrecks and fmuggling, and are conitantly on the
look-out. Three men of that defcription, of the
names of Tall, Weatherby, and Mount, having teen
the veffel quitted, manned a vefel of their own
(which they keep for fuch occafions, and whicia
refembles a Gravefend boat), and put off to the
Sip that was funk, id order to fave as much of
the cargo and materials as they were able, taking,
with them blocks, tackle, and other implements
which they blew would 'heft affift their purpofe.
It might, at the firft blufb, be fuppofed, that their
intention was an ad of kindnefs towards the own-
er of the veffel, or the underwriters, but it was no
fuch thing ; it has a long time been confidered
with thefe men, that all ftranded vac's upon their'
waft were legal prizes, and' therefore they made
no fecret of plundering vetch in the open day.=
With grappling irons, and other inftruments, they
procured a great quantity of the goods on board i
they attended the veffel for eleven days, and e 4
length facceeded in their grand objed, in getting
her on fhore. The unfortunate Captain of the
Dutch vela was all this time a fpedator of the
fcene of plunder, and was obliged to behold the
remainder of the cargo taken out.of his veffel, and
honied by the plunderers with as much law frail
as merchants would their own property. The
Captain was not even allowed to go on board,
after the vefel had been got on chore. Being thus
circumftanced, and finding it fruitlefs to appeal to
thofe lawlefs people, he came to the refolution of
leaving them to divide the property, and fet off to
town, where he arrived on Thurfday laft, to give
an account of the affair to the Underwriters, who
had iafured the vefel, that they might take proper
meafures for recovering the cargo.
, Mr. Guam( was one who had made an infu-
tince uponber. This Gentleman related the whole
,effair fo the.Losti Mayo', who cheerfully granted
him fuch a&ftance as might be wanted to take the
offenders into cuftody.
Mr. Ciente, one of the City Marflials, acoom-
panicd. Mr. Gicson to Whitstable, on Saturday
Taft. In their way thcy procured warrants at Can-
terbury, and on the Sunday apprehended Tall,
Weatherly, Mount, and a perfon of the name of
Me*, who had affifted in the plunder. They
were all much aftonilled at the circumllanee,*and
wondered at their being molefted, while only en-
gaged in the profecution of their profelLon, b
which tome of them had amaffed to the amount
of 7ciool.
On Monday they were all taken before Jous
Laos, Efq. of Canterbury, where they underwent
ta long examination.
. Salifbury, an Officer of Whitftaitle, proved, that
Peter Tall refuted to give up twenty-eight calks
of fugar and pot-afhes, which he claimed for the
iiillad
erwriters, and that he was obliged, 14 folic,
'put "the broad errew nrithenza.while on his
' mires. . .. ..

An affray happened near St. Giles's, on Mon-
day night, and the parties were brought before
the Sitting Magiltrate on Tuefday; It appeared
that a carpenter in the Seven Dials had been regal-
ing with fame friends, and returning home at a i
late hour inebriated, felt much furprized that none
of the watchmen were going their.rerpediverounds.
He tLought it incumbent on him to inquire into
this abufe, and accordingly went to feveral of the
boxes, all of which he found deferted ; but meet.
ing afterwards with Tome ftragglers, and expoftu•
lating with them, perhaps not in a very difired
Manner, words were foon exchanged for blow%

MURDER AND Roaaaar.--41,:ilain of then iiiii
of Matthews, who has for the fidEtwenty yea of
his life refided in a cave or hermitage, oti the lior
ders of Sydenham Common, concluding himfelf
after the manner of a hermit—and wh‘froti his
reelufe life, was called "The Man of the Woods,"
was yefterday morning found near his tierntitage
murdered. The deceafed had feveral fevete con-
tufions in his head, and his jaw bone broken in
trim places. From thefe appearances, the blow
teemed to have been given with a large ftkk
found near the body; and from its being very
rough and jagged at the lower end, induced the
parties that found the body, to examine the wood
a little farther, when they found 4 dump near the
ground, from whence, on being compared toge-
ther, they tallied to nearly, it should fees it was
twitted off for want of a knife, koeffed the cruel
purpofe of the villains. " The deceafed had alto
other marks about his perfon, was weltering in
his blood, and bore every indication of being rob-
bed as well as murdered, no money or any thing
.of value being found upon his perfon.
