WARWICK.

BREACH OF PROMISE OF A! C!r-ge,
BAXTER V.-BOLICIIER, was to have been tried at V:Z.T.
wick Assizes, in which the plaintiff sought co riper..
sation for a breach of promise of marriage; Set it
was settled by compromise, wlthera going into Court
—the friends of the Lady, who was recently married
to Mr. BOUCHER, jun. of CIIEItE4II2I, agxceing to
pay the disappninted suitor EMI and all costs.

Thomas Afusgrove, convicted at the Assizes for
Devonshire, of sheep-stealing, upon the evidence ei
two of his own daughters, the one fourteen and t!.e
other seventeen years of age, was executed on ?11.•.n-
-day last, at Exeter. He was an ont.pensiouer ci
Chelsea Hospital, and had served his country in
South America, and in the Peniosula, and belayed
extremely well in several engagements. Tl'e
un-
happy man met his fate with becoming fortitil2.c. •
Thursday last, John Pannell, who was °cozy cte'.l
at the last Kent Assizec, for committing a l",: glary
at Mr. Tomkin's, at Keinsing, underwent the
ful sentence of the law at Penenden.heath. :yin e
condemnation, his conduct has been 't; uly ticvottti
and at the.place of execution he evinced much re-t;•
teuce. About twelve o'clock he ascended the plat.
form, when the executioner (who came from New.
gate), adjusted the fatal coed, and in a few minutes
lie was launched into eternity. He died very hard,
and his body appeared convulsed for some minutes.
At an early hour yesterday morning, some thieves;
by means of forcing open one of the winlows of Step-
ney Chapel, entered it, and stripped the putt it of the
black cloth. They forced open a cupboard in the
Vestry, and rifled it of fourteen bottles of wine, a
quantity of candles, a pair of silver candlesticks, the
communion-cloth, napkins, &c. all of which they car-
tied off, together with a large looking-glass. About
five o'clock the same morning, as the wlatchman was
going his rounds, in .the .Commercial-road, he sa'
two men in sailor's apparel coming towardshim
one of them carried a square box on his head, and
the other a looking-glass and a pair of candlestickll
' under his arm. Ile stopped the maxi who carriell
the box, but the other effected his e'cape, leaving he.
hind him the glass,. and carrying-off the candlesticks.
The man and the box were taken to ShidWell OEue
yesterday, w!lere it was found to contain the w‘ir
candles, and cloth, which, together with the box led
looking-glass, were identified by Mr. Davis, the Cha-
pel-keeper. . The, prisoner gave his name ?heeds
kiarley.—He was fully committed.
Sunday evening, last, as a young Lady of the name
of Grove, in Crocket-row, Edgeware-road, was ad-.
justing part of her head-dress at the chimney-Filass,.
her clothes caught free and she was momentarily in
one blaze. A female companion, who was close to
her, was too much overcome to assist her, and she.
ran into the street for assistance, whilst the most part
of Miss Grove's dress was reduced to tinder. Imme-
diate medical aid was had; but little hopes are enter-
Ltained of hei recovery. The front, hair .was even.
burned from her head, and she lies in much agony.
Friday morning, a fire broke out in the house of
Mr. Thomas Good*in, watch-manufacturer, No. /,
Angel-court, facing St. Sepulchre's Church, Snow-
hill, which threatened destruction to the house, and
greatly alarmed the family, who, in their consterna-
tion, began to remove some of the property for
safety: however, the fire was happily got under,
without doing any material damage; but in the con-
fusion necessarily caused on the occaiidn, some vil-
lain found opportunity to steal a large morocco case,
containing six
.very valuable gold watches, a great
quantity of. jewellery, several gold neck and watch
chains, fourteen ounces of pure gold, and other
costly articles, td a large amount.
A curious and valuable disco Very took place on
the morning of Tuesday se'nnight, in Cannon's Marsh,
field, Bristol. A labourer employed in cleansing a
ditch, observed some shining. pieces of metal, and on
inspecting them they proved to be guineas, hall
guineas, and seven shilling pieces, of 1805-6-7. hav-
ing picked up several, he hastened home with them'
to his wife, who, elated with joy, and being unable
to keep a secret; boasted to her acquaintance of her
husband's good fortune. The news of the- gold mite
soon spread, and numbers have since been exploring
the ground, and scrambling in the mud and filth for
the treasure. It may be conjectured that the deposit.
was made by some thief, who had been prevented
by the laws of his country from enjoying his ill-g&t
ten plunder.
