EtortmEnr.—A young Lady. highly celebra-
ted for her beauty, and of a very confiderable pro-
perty, eloped on Monday with a Military Officer;
but from fome inattention of the Lady, in leaving
a letter in her apartments, (he was ',twined by her
Guardian ; and the chaife breaking down on the
road, the amorous pair were overtaken. A fevers
conflid enfued between the young Gretna Adven-
turer and the Guardian. the Lady afElting her
gallant paramour, who would doubtlefs have
proved the vidor, and carried off his fair prize
triumph, had not the interference of limit neigh-
bouring Conitables been demanded. This rein-
forcement decided the fate of the day, and the
Captain was in the end obliged to abandon the
conteft, and make the belt retreat he could; not.
however, without hopes of better fuccefs on a
more favourable occafion.

Twelve of the prifoners to be tried next week
for high treafon, have petitioned the Treafury for
a fitfficient film of money to enable them to con.
duCt their defence, as the number of witneffes to
be fubpcenaed will be expenfive. The Treafury So.
licitor, in anfwer, has informed them, that, on
application to the Clerk of the Court for the Crown.
fubprenas (hall be furnifhed them, free of expence.
but that no money can be furnifhed them. Col.
Defpard did not fign the memorial making ap-
plication.
Yefterday afternoon a fine young man, about
t 6 years of age, was drowned in a cow-keeper's
pond, behind Portman-fquare. He was one of
party of five lads, who were Hiding there, whet
the ice gave way, and they were all ingulphed in
mud and water. Four of them were, with much
difficul:y, brought out alive, by the humane exer-
tions of a man and his fon, who live in that neigh-
bourhcod, ant to who(: cottage the fifth was taken
in about an hour aftei wards. Here every exer-
tion was made by Mr. Daw, an eminent Surgeon
in the New Road, but in vain; the vital fpark was
for ever extinguillual ; and the lifzlefs youth was
taken away in a coach to his afflieted parents is
Old Bond-ftrect. A boat from the Paddington.
canal, though late, was of great rife in recovering
the drowned body.

At one o'clock nn Tuefday morning, as John
Townfend, jto std Lavender, two of the Police
Patrole, were palling through Crown-flreet, Saint
Giles's, on their duty, they met two men with a
very large ba,:. one of them having it on his back.
and the other fupporting the end behind ; the of-
ficers flopped them, and defired to know what
they had got in the bag, the men made no anfwer.
but the one who was fupporting the bag immedi-
ately nabbed Townfend high up in the fide, nearly
under the left arm, and then, with the other man.
ranolr, and made their efcamleaving thejiag. La-
vender and the watchman carried him to his bldg.
ings in the neighbouthool of Tottenham Court
Road, when the difcharge of blond was fo conli•
derahle, that it was feared by his friends he could
furvive but a fhort time. Mr. Andrews. the fur-
geon, was direaly fent for, and on his examining
the wound, he found the inflrnment (iuppofed to
be a large knife) had entered the cavity of the
cheß, and had pa&d Sate• the lungs, and his opi-
nion is, we are lorry to fay, a very unfavourable
one. The hag contained upwards of too pair of
men and women's (hoes, ilolen from a fhoernaker's
Earl-Ilreet. Seven Pials, whole !bog was Inds
open the lame night.
