A few nights ago, five convicts made their efcape
out of Chelter Cattle, and have not fince been heard
of. They had taken out the gratings from over their
cell doors, and by means of picklock keys, opened
every other lock, and, afterwards taking up a large
plank from one of the rooms, they afcended to the
top of the building, when laying it acrofs the boun-
dary wall, they !et thernfelves down by their blankets.
A few days fince, T. Houfeman, a boy only 15
years f age, was committed to Lincoln goal, charged
with killing W. Threadgold, on the sth inftant. A
quarrel among the boys at Grantham on that even•
ing, about their bonfires, led to the unfortunate affair.
The deceafed having (truck the prifoner with a Rick
over the head, the latter immediately threw a brick
at him, which hitting him on the temple, occdfioned
his death.

At Kilkenny, a few days ago, a young farmer
named Nlulrony, whole aged mother, and feveral
bt others and titters, were kept by his exertions, was
attacked on hic return from the fair at Callan, by a
number of ruffians, who beat him to death. One of
them ilrock him on the head with a. large hammer,
and another with a 'hovel, from which he langui(hed
a few hours, and then died. Many of the murderers
are known, and a vet di6l has been returned againft
them by the Coroner's Inqueft.
On Friday night, about ten o'clock, Mr. lassou,
of Bifhopfgate-ftreet, was flopped on Wimbledon
Common, near where Aberfhaw was hung in chains,
by two highwaymen well mounted. and robbed of
about 31. iss. being the whole of the ca(h he had
about him. One of the highwaymen feized the
bridle of Mr. lassou's bode, while the other de.
manded his money. They behaved very civilly,
regretted he had not more property, wifhed him good
night, and then galloped off towards Kinglion.

On Friday evening a filk manufadlurer in Spital•
fields fent a lad with a parcel, containing goods of
thri value of pl. to a tradefinan in the city. At
Ho,indiditch he was met by a well drefred man, who
enquired if he was not cart ying the articles to a cer-
tain both, but being anfwered in the negative, he
contrived to look at the bill of parcels, and pretend-
ing he was miQaken, went away. Shortly afterwards,
the boy was again accoQed by a ltranger, who men-
tioned the name of the honfe to which the parcel was
addrefTed, and pretending to be on his way for it in
a great burry, Cucceeded in obtaining it, and de-
camped. The latter impultor was of courfe a confe-
derate wi:11 the former.

A few evenings fince, an unfortunate young wo-
man of Dundee, named Munro, was found lying
dead near the Sea-gate in that town, having her bread
and a part of her face completely.perforated with flogs.
An ale vender, named Thornfun, who had long kept
a diforderly houfe near the fpot on which the was
found, having ahfconded, fufpici:sn pointed him out
as the perpetrator of the murder, and hand bills were
iffued. offering a reward for his apprehenion. Two of
the officers, who were fent in purfuit of him, overtook
him the fame day, on the road between Glammis
and Kirriemuir. He made no refiaance, and was
brought to the town. On examination he denied
having any intention of the murder, but being re-
peatedly diQurbed by the deceafed, he fired at her
without thot ; but, as the pertitted in her outrages,
he fired a fecond time with flogs, and intended they
fhould fall about her feet ; but they hit her, and the
fell. He did not think fin was hurt till the next
morning, when he fled.
