Wednesday evening, as Mr. ALUSTIRY, an artist in
Poland-street, was returning from Hampstead to
Baker-street, be was stopped by two footpads, near
the New Burial-ground, who robbed him of his watch
and twenty-five shillings. They useeishocking im-
precations, but no violence.
The house of Mr. EtaTont, at Clapham, was pri-
vately entered on Thursday night, and robbed of a
considerable sum in Bank-notes and silvet, besides
two gold watches, and a large quantity of other va-
luable property.
Thursday night, as Mr. Cots, of Pelican-row,
Kent-road, was on his way home, he observed three
men near the corner of Whine-street, St. George's,
Church, talking together.' As he approached, they
walked forward; but *hen they came' to Pelham's
dust-ground, they stopped short, and one of them
darted on him, and held him violently by the throat,
whilst his companions robbed him of his watch, a one
pound Bank note, and some silver. They then knocked
him down; and escaped, although pursued by a Con-
stable for some distance.

Wednesday, the brewhouse of Mr. Twatms of
South*ick, near Brighton, was entirely destroyed by
fire.-.-The damage sustained is estimated at £lO,OOO.
A cart load of lime, from the kilns of Mr. Owess,
of Newtown, Montgomeryshire, was lately, by acci-
, dent. overthrown Into a pool, which is situate near
:the Severn. The late heavy rains causing a Bush
.of water, the lime water flowed into the Severn, and
- air occasioned dreadful havoc among the finny
tribe in the river, to a certain extent. The fish, in
their agony, leaped out of the water and darted
to the shore ; while boys and men by dozens waded
from the ankle to the middle, bearing away prizes;
among which were a vast quantity of trout of vari-
ous sties, from one to two pounds, and other species;
also two salmon, each weighing six or seven pounds,
have become victims. _ _ _

Hum Baps oa Hosona.--An Englishman once
on a liUnting party hastily struck a Peon (or East
Indian foot-soldier), for having let loose, at an im-
proper time, a greyhound. The Peon happened to be
Rajah-pout, which is the highest tribe. of }radon
soldiers. On receiving the blow, he started back with
an appearance of horror and amazement, and drew'
his poniard. But again composing himself, and look-
ing stedfastly at his master, he said, 44.1 am your ser-
vant, and have long ate your rice; and having pro-
nounced this, he plunged the dagger into his own
bosom. In those few words the-poor man pathetically
expressed-6 The arm that has been nourished by you
shall not take away your life; but in sparing your's,
I must give up my own; as I cannot survive my
dishonour!"

Execurrow.—Saturday last, the three men, Ljttk,
Woof, and Armstrong, left for execution at Carlisle,
underwent the last dreadful extremity of thelaw.—
At three o'clock they ascended the scaffold, erected
at the end of the Jail, with a inn step. After Atm-
strong's irons were taken off, he was very refractory,
and the Constables were obliged to pinion him. To
the last he said he was a murdered man, and said'
he could never forgive the Judge and Jury who had
condemned him. Woof behaved himself very quietly,
and so did Little, but he was very sullen, and threat-
ened to kick the hangman, when he was pulling the
cap over his face. After the Rev. Messrs. Bone and
MARK had shaken hands with them, they were
launched into eternity. Woof died with Out a strug-
gie, but Armstrong and Little were much convulsed.

INSOLVENT DEBTORS' COURT.

The Court met yesterday for the purpose of hearing
motions, none of than. however, were of any interest.

CONDUCT OP Moil HU&
The following important Order was made by .the
Court relatkve to the appointment of Assignees. and'a,
copy of it directed to be SzeJ up hi the Court-root",
" kasignees may be appointed at the time the cause
In the Court. finch appointment may be made subsequent to
the hearing of the cause; bet in such case it must be done in a
mein of the credhon, after so advertisement has appeared In
the Loam Canine. or in a Newspaper which is in eirculatioa
in the neighbourhood of a debtor whose debt amounts to £2O
or upwards.
es The appointment of Assignees also may take place without
say meeting of the creditors, provided the consent of those cre-
ditors be given in writing, whose debts are the greatest in value.
In the two last cases an application may be made by petition at
the office, even though the Court is not sitting, to have the choice
confirmed, but no such confirmation can take place unless the
advertisement, Ire. be certified by Affidavit. No advertisement
is on any account to beinserted until a draft of It has been sub-

Assignee shall be appointed unless he be a kens jide creditor, and
be able to write, and no female creditor shall, on any account,
be chosen an Assignee. Every Assignee, before he is confirmed
in his appointment, must state upon Affidavit. whether he has
been previously appointed in any other case, and whether he
has passed and filed his account, as no defaulter can, on any con.'
sideration whatever, be allowed to act as an Assignee."

BREACH OF PROMISE OF MARRIAGE.

CARLISLE ASSIZES.
LAWSON germs SAULDER.

0* this cause being called, Mr. Justice PAaax or-
dered females and boys to withdraw. When [l.O
Court was cleared.

Mr. Lyrrtanatz opened the pleadings, from which
it appeared, that this was an action brought by Jane
Lawson, widow, against William Faulder, to re-
cover a compensation in damages for a breach of
promise of marriage.
Mr. Scaaurrr addressed the Jury with his usual
effect, and, to make out the case which he had stated,
called a nephew of the plaintiff.
The witness lives in the house of his grandfather,
Gilkerson, a farmer, it Beaumont, in this
County, with whom the plaintiff; who is Mr. Gilker-
son's daughter, has resided ever since the death of
her husband; about a year and a half after which
event, and about three years since, Mr, Faulder be-
gan to pay his addresses to her. This witness de-
posed to frequent promises of marriage ; all the fa-
mily expected he was going to marry her. His visits
were frequent at all times, but became less frequent
after Martinmas. In January last the defendant
married Eleanor Hodgson. The plaintiff bore a child
to defendant, which is now about three months old.
Witness had heard defendant say that he would make
Jane Lawson a Lady of £5OO near ; believes that
he is worth above £3OO a-year.
This witness underwent a very close cross-exami-
nation by Mr. RA.INE:—Has seen him very often
drunk, to be sure; seen him both drunk and sober
at Gilkerson's house ; sometimes staid all night—
Does not know what doing ; has seen him there at
night, and seen him there in the morning; does not
know where he slept, perhaps by the fire. This wit-
ness positively denied being a witness to a most .
grossly indecent scene,which, it appeared, the Learned
Gentleman was instructed would be proved in evi-
dence. Mrs. Lawson's pregnancy was discovered
about Martinmas, and Mr. Faulder still continued his
promises of marriage.
John Gilkerson, brother of plaintiff, has known The
defendant two years, since witness went to farm at
Beaumont; observelMr. Faulder to pay very much
attention to plaintiff; he always looked in, like any
other neighbour, and grew freer, and went in on
Jane Lawson's account, when he had no other bu-
siness; has come to witness's house, and has sent
sometimes witness, and sometimes his wife, for her.
One time, after his mother knew that her daughter
was with child, she was scolding her, the defendant
said, she might make herself easy, he would marry
her next week. Witness said he thought it was
proper, it was delayed long enough. Defendant
gave witness his hand, and said witness should be at
the wedding. Defendant was not drunk ; each had
had a glass, and nothing
.more. Witness deposed
to different promises of marriage. Defendant, in
conversation with witness, and witness's mother, said
he had cleared off the incumbrances .a his estate,
and would marry Jine Lawson, although his mother
ISMS dissatisfied; for, if she and trig wife did not suit,
he would make hii mother comfortable in another
house, which he would fit up for her. Continued his
visits a few weeks after the plaintiff was knofm to
be with child.
Both this and the other witness spoke to three
facts ; the ecostaacy of plaintiff, her sobriety, and her
not inveigling the defendant into drunkenness. But
the first of these was not attempted•so be negatived,
aad the attempt to negative the two latter failed.
This witness underwent a close cross•examinatioo
by Mr. Serjeant Hoi.t.ocx, but nothing' material
transpired.
William Gilkerson is twenty-three years of age; is
the plaintiff's brother, and lives in his lather's.housk.
His sister is thirty-eight years old. The witness's
evidence went to spew the defendant's attention to
the plaintiff, and frequent promises of marriage, as
before given in evidence. Nothing came out in cross-
examination.

The Rev. Richard Burn, Rector of .Beaumont,
proved the marriage of the defendant on the 11th of
January last.
Joseph Bell and John Corry were called to prove
the annual value of the defendant's land, of which
they did not appear to have any accurate knowledge.
Mr. Rama addressed the Jury with his usual abi-
lity, and laid down a very strong case.
Jane Cartner, the wife of Edward Cartner, who
keeps a public-house at Beaumont, stated the de-
fendanesilge to be about thirty. This witness was
called to prove the scene to which we before alluded,
at the house of the plaintiff's father—defendant being
present as well as the plaintiff, and all the inmates lat.
the family. With some difficulty witness was made
to speak so as to t4row her voice beyond the pre-
cincts of the present enormous bonnet, and when
she became audible, did not communicate what was
expected from-lier.
Mr. Ratas put -a leading question, which Mr.
SCARLIITT promptly objected to.
Witness was that examined to a transaction which
was-stated to have occurred between the two parties,
at her house, after aine o'clock in a night of October
