a dealer in Wellelore-fquare:
Vetterda y. at Mat !borough-111Tel', a gentleman r n
the wrong tide of fixty was charged by a female, wins
keeps an ace' onmodating houfe in St. Ann's parith,
with an affault, and a breach of contraft of marriage
Tke complainant, it appeared, attraeed the attention
of the Defendant fume time fince,. and they took up
their abode under the fame roof,, and the lady had
fixed on a certain day for the marriage, which was
clearly underltotxl; an unlucky circum ftance,trowever,
occurred, whit+ prevented the union, for the old gee.
tleman was indttee with a damfel of more tender years,
who tiled to vifit his intended, and he left her, This
circumitance occafioned the affault complained of,
which turned out to have been first committed by the
intended bride. It was confinnently difcharged.
Yetterday at the Police Office, Union Hall, Ben-
jamin Herring and Sarah Herring, alias Sarah
Pearce, were brought up on a charge of counterfeit-
ing Millings and fixpences. Information having been
given to the Magiltrates, a party of officers fur-
rounded the houfe of the paoners, in Duke-ltreet,
St. George's Fields, and having made their way in,
they found both the patties at work. Sheers for
clipping, rounding tools, cutting punch', metal
plates, blacking dolt, and rowfing bags, to give the
blanks the aHearance of having been in circulation,
were found in the fame apartment with them. They
were both committed for trial at the next affixes far
Surrey.
Sarah Thmnpfon was charged with having, on the
evenint; of Tnefdav lift, wilfully :tabbed; with a
.ablyknifc, S. Powell. The evidence went to Brew
that Mrs. Thnmpfon and Mrs. Powell were together
at their lodgings, in Gray-ftreet. St. Georges Fields,
where, hzteing a difpute, Mrs. Powell made ale of
forth: Iltoag expreffions, which fo • irritated Mrs.
'nom pon that the caught tape knife that was lying
on the table and plunged st into the bofnm of the
former. The forge :n who attended could not
mediattiy e.eciae whether the wound was mortal; in
confequence of which the pt ironer was committed to
the county goal till that can be determined.

A duel was fought, on Tuefday afternoon,
Woodward's Green, near Colnbrnok, between Mr.
M. P. and Capt. V. of a Volunteer corps near town.
The parties exch.inged (hots without injnry, when
their friends interiel-ed, bur. without dice ; and in
the fecond fire Mr. P. was ferioufly wounded in the
tight arm.

Tuefday a very hard pitched batt!e =ls fought,
in St. George's.row, Paddington, between a little
Q2aker and a huge Blackfmith. The (),taker was
feconded by Tom Jones, and the Blickimith, by a
brother of the anvil. After fighting upwards of an
hour, the, combatants were bolt miferably disfigured,
but the Qt.2.aker proved Lirafelr irrefiflible bottom,
and he was ultimately declared the vienr.
A few evenings fence, as Mr. Life, Excife Officer
in Hadleigh, Suffolk, was fitting by his fire fide,
with his, family, fome villain filed a loaded piftol in
at the window,no doubt with an intent to murder
him. The ball grazed Mr. Life's left arm, but for-
ttmately did him no material injury.
A daring robbery was committed on Monday eve-
zing,nearilamet, by two footpads, with crape over
their faces, on a Mr. and Mrs. Bunce, who were tra-
velling to town in a chaife from Stilton. One of the
robbers prefented a piltol at Mr. B. when the lady
fainted—but this did not prevent the villains from
riding her pockets. They obtained about fo guineas
in fpeciv• with a gold watch, and efcaped without
moleflation.
Oa Saturday night two men were drowned in the
Old Dock, Liverpool, and a third was faved with
difficulty.
On Sunday night La, about nine o'clock, a very
alarming dilburbance happened at the hotife of a re•
fpeetable conveyancer in Callle-fireet, Holborn,
which had newly been productive of fatal t onfe-
quences.—ln the abfence of their father, two amia
ble his daughters, with three others nearly re-
lated, all under the age of r 3, entirely unprotened,
were fitting together, when a refpeetable Gentleman,
not unknown to the family, was introduced by the
maid Eroant into the roon,, who defired to fee their
father ; on being, told he WES nut at home, but es.
peeled every minute, after taking a tumbler of brandy
and water, h, became very outrageous. and threw
the glafs at one of their heads, then beat her feverely,
and feiring another by the throat, tore her hair, and
badly wounded her with his nails ; on their (riving
to get away, he forced them all violently down the
(lairs—at length one of them had the good 'fortune
to reach the fireet door, and call out 4, murder!"
which brought .the neighbours to their affiftance,
when the unhappy maniac was fecared, and deprived
' of the power of doing further injury to them. He
was carried to the Compter, and orders given to have
all hntnane care taken of him, and on Monday was
fent by the Lord Mayor to St. Luke's Hofpital. He
refufed to give any reafon for his conduct, but faid
that the account of it was jolt, and that before he
came from his lodgings he had killed his landlady,
and knocked down three men in the fireet, becaufe
they koied like villains
