woman's affairs, which will be effected by paying 10s. in the pound
to the landlord.—The gratitude of the family is unbounded.

the defendants snatched up several brickbats and stones, and
Sung them at the unlucky watchmen ; some of those missiles
struck him upon the skull, and in the face and body, and wherever
they struck they either cut or bruised severely ; the watchman
tan bleeding fur assistacee. The defendants, upon seeing other
watchmen approaching, collected more brickbats, cried out "down
with the d—a o!d Charleys," and flung at them as if they were de-
termined to exterminate them. At length the defendants ran into
. .

a house in Angel:alley, to which they were puttued. The neigh-
bourhood was by this time in a great state of consternation. The
watchmen, upon demanding admission into the house, were mitred
that it they MO not leave the alley thiy should be put to death.
This threat was disregarded, the watchmen broke into the house,
and hauled the prisoners front milder the beds and other hiding-
