OLD BAILE r.

Thurfday twenty-four prifoners were tried, two
of whom were capitally convicted, viz.
• yan Hinton and William Morris, Soldiers in the
Guards, for robbing Alexander Williams on the
highway. The Profecutor Rated, that on the night
of the 22d of April, between twelve and one, he
was corning home from the Circus, in company
with his brother, and paffing through the King's
private road, in Pimlico, the two prifoners and
another, all dreffed in foldier's clothes, came up
to them. Hinton knocked his brother down, and
then the Profecutor knocked down Hinton; but
lie was inflantly attacked by Merritt, who knocked
him down into a ditch, and robbed him of a hat,
fifteen (billings in money, and a pair of gloves; at
the fame time he held his fid over him, and cried
out, D—a your eyes, l'il murder you if you
fay a word." The other two foldiers, of whom
Merritt was one, then robbed the brother, ufcd
rnoft horrid language, and made off with their
booty. The moon thone very clear, fo that the
profecutor could fee the faces of the prifoners, of
whom he had a perfed recolledion. The hole-
cutor's brother gave evidence as to the robbery,
but was in frightened as not to be able to recoiled
the prifoners. On the night of the 4th of May the
Patrole on the King's Road law the prifoners at
that place with bludgeons, and finding that they
could not give a proper account of themfelves,
took them into cultody. The next day the profe-
eutor law them at Bow-ftreet, and not only recog-
sited them as the robbers, but found on Merritt's
head the very hat of which he had been robbed.

Monday fe'nnight, the foundation was laid of a
houfe in the new ftreet in the Lochlands, Aber-
deen, oppofite to Gordon's Hofpital, which is
called Charlotte-ftreet, in honour of her Majelly.
It runs nearly touch and north, emely parallel to
George-ftreet. This is the firth area that has been
opened, and buildings ereaed in, on that property,
within twelve years.
The first' three miles of the Thames Medway
Canal was opened for navigation on the ;ft ult.—
The Committee, with Sir WM. GEM, their
Chairman, came down in their boats from near
Hyham to the Bafon at Gravefend, and then re-
tired to the Falcon Tavern and dined. Great part
of this Canal is on the noble fcale of 52 feet wide,
which, AS far as the prefent is, does great credit
to Mr. Donn, the engineer, executor, and firs
projelor.
On Monday loft, as Mr. Ellis of Tunftall, and
Mr. Woodward,of CampfeyAnt, were coming into
Iplwich in a chaife, the boric took fright by the
PoßChaife Inn, and became unmanageable; both
gentlemen were thrown out and very much hurt,
particularly the latter, whole collarbone was
broken.

A diarang accidenthappened lately at the Old
Bridge of Almond, near Pcrth: a boy diverting
himfelf, rolled a large Boric from the top of a pre.
cipice, which iiruci a young child below, and
killed it on the fpot.

An unfortunate accident happened en Friday
laff at the paper mill of Mr. J. Pine. at To% ill : as
It. Woollett, one of the journeymen, was pulling
the lever out of a profs, the lock of an adjoining
pref.'s flying back, its laver amok him on the fide
with fuch violence, that he only furvived 24. hours.
A melancholy circum(ance occurred at the
White Hart, Ely, during the late contorted elation
for Cambridgefliire—A party of Sir Henry Pey-
ton's friends were regaling themfelves at the above
inn, when two of them, from exceffivc eating and
drinking, prematurely terminated their exigence.
The energy and propriety of a:lion never had a
finer fcopc than in the very firiking and interea-
ing fcenes of the Fatal Predation, or Midnight Af-
flict:, at the Royal Circus; and the performers ad-
ni;rably avail themfelves of it, which is proved
abundantly by the fupport given to the charader
of Births by Mifs Armies ;_Eliarga't being to ad-
mirably fullnincd by Mrs. HELMS ; and the princi.
p2l Meek Sifier by Mrs. Hseattor. The Duetts
of Mi s ADAMS and Mrs. ROPIIIrg are thorough-
ly plearlng ; and HELM! in Etheoeld, wits Mowr.
cost s as, in tilevy, are additional proofs of excellent
aellng. The graceful and. finely executed dancing
of Mifs Mums, in the Enchanted Harp, and the
fafcinating Columbine of Mrs. WYDROW, in the
fame•piece, are alto great additions to the delight
of the evening.
