It gives us great pleasure to state that Miss Ablett, whose abduc-
tion from her family by the servant-maid, Mary Bentley, we have
noticed above, has been recovered, and delivered over to bet
almost heart-broken mother.

It seems by dint of good luck, some person wbo knew Miss

Ablett, happened to be passing through Paul•street, Finsbury-
square, when the young Lady, the servant girl, and the old fore-
teller of futurity, entered the coach, the cumber of which the
person noticed, and after the fight had been discovered and made
'known, that individual communicated the number of the vehicle to
the family, which, very fortunately, led the brother and officer to
the destination of the fugitives.. About three o'clock yesterday af-
ternoon, soon after the information was given at Worship-street, an
officer of that establishment, the brother of the young Lady, and a
Mr. Simmons, a friend of the family, took a coach, and proceeded to
a house in Folly-street, Dockhead, which they ascertained to be the
residence of the old fortune teller, whose name appears to be Wright,
On the officer and Mr. Ablett entering the room; they found Miss
Ablett, the servant, and the old sybil setting round a fire, and on
Miss Ablett beholding her friends, she became very agitated and
fainted away. The semant girl was in a terrible state of alarm,
and wept bitterly. The officer proceeded to search bpth the young
Lady and the girl, and on the former he found the duplicate of the
plate stolen from her mother, and eleven shillings or thereabouts in
silver. A coach was immediately called, and both Miss Ablett and
her companions were carried away to the Police office. Miss Ablett
WAS delivered over to her mother, and the family not wishing to
press the charge against the girl, she was this morning discharged.

Information was received yesterday at Hatto n‘g a rden,
of a most audacious attempt at robbery having been
made in the house of Mr. G. Collyer, bookbinder, Hat-
ton-garden, near the corner of Charles-street. Between
one and two o'clock on Monday morning, a woman, who
was sitting up with a sick person, had occasion to come
down stairs, and on passing the drawing room door,
which she had locked about an hour before, she fancied
that she heard a noise from within s and listening more
attentively, she found that an attempt was being made
to force back the bolt. Fearing that the robbers would
succeed in their endeavour, she went up stairs with as
much speed as her terror would permit, and called up
Mr. Collier, to whom she imparted the discovery she
had made. The latter jumped out of bed, and gave the
alarm from one of the second floor windows, when the
fellows below, two of whom were already distinguished,
jumped into the street, a height of at least 16 or 18 feet,
and made off in different directions—one towards Lea•
ther-lane, and the other down Cross-street, into Saffron-
hill. The watchman came up soon after, but too late
to prevent the escape of the thieves. Read, sen. the
chief officer, was sent to examine the premises, and found
in the drawing room a dark lantern, a phosphorus box,
and a paper of prepared matches, on the outside of
which was written " H. G. 72," being intended, no
doubt, as the designation of the house marked out fee
plunder. Several articles were placed on the floor near
he window; but the discovery was too quickly made
to admit of remoral.
