IDINBURGN, JANUARY 2.

Tnesdaynight, being the last night of the year,
and on that account devoted by immemorial usage,
and the custom of the place, to innocent festivity, the
streets of this city were disgraced by a series of
riots, outrages, and robberies, hitherto, we may truly
say, without any example. During all the whole
of the night, alter eleven o'clock, a gang of fe-
rocious banditti, armed with bludgeons and other
weapons, infested some of the leading streets of this
metropolis, and knocked down, and robbed, and
otherwise most wantonly abused, almost every per.
son who had the misfortune to fall in their way.—
After they had fairly succeeded in knocking down
those of whom they were in pursuit, they proceeded
immediately to rifle them of their money and watches;
and the least symptom on their part, of anxiety to
save their property, was a provocation to new out-
rages, which were persevered in until their lives Were
endangered. By the vigilance of the Mag'strates,
who were on the streets, or otherwise actively en-
gaged in the duties of their office, until about five
o'clock on Wednesday morning; several of these
rioters were apprehended on the spot, some of them
with the stolen articles in their possession. Among
other depredations, we hear, that about 70 of the pub-
lic lamps as ere broken.
JAN. 4.—We arc extremely sorry to state, that
Dugald Campbell, a police officer, who was so
yerely wounded on Wednesday, by the gang of ruf.
flan who infested the street, died last night, at nine
o'clock. The utmost vigilance is exerted for the dis-
covery of the offenders by whom this atrocious mur-
der has been committed. A reward of 100 guineas
has been offered by the Magistrates to such as can
give any information as to this matter, and advertise-
ments to this effect have been published in all the
newspapers.
Some r ights ago, a bookseller's shop in Dundee
was entered into, and about 70 volumes carried off ;
and on Mt n lay night, a sunk shop in the Fish Mar-
ket was broken Open, and about £4. in copper and sil-
ver cariiel off. The books have been since found in
a Gentleman's garden, into which the thieves had
thrown them, to prevent detection ; but no word is
yet •got of the specie.
Monday two men broke into a house in the neigh-
bourhood of Dunfermline, and stole a watch and a
pair of pantaloons. One of them was soon after ap-
prehended, and after examination was commited to
Dunfermline jail. The watch was found in his pos-
session. Next morning on the jailor opening the room
where he was confined, he was found quite dead, hav-
ing lunged himself by means of his hanclkercief.
