We lately stated that a female had recently de-
frauded
Mrs. Austin, of lied-lion•passage, of several I
articles of millinery, by pretending to be an upper
servant of the Duchess of Succleugh. The same wo-
man obtained a necklace of Mr. Frith, of Chapel-
street, Osford-street. on Wednesday, by pretending
to come from Mrs. Malthorn, of Charlotte•street,
'Fitaroy.squere, whose boy took the article with her,
and on whose arrival at the area, he was told to wait,
As strangers were not admitted. She then went into
the kitchen, and inquired for a servant ; when she
returned, and told the boy to fetch Cie fellow heck-
lace, as the housekeeper had fallen in love with that.
Having thus got rid of him, she decamped with the
article, and has not since been heard of.

A few days since, at Darlington, as a boy was
iv:into/11y throwing stones, he hit another boy on the
bead, which occasioned his death in a few hours.—
The boy who threw the stone is eleven yens of age.
He has been committed to Durham Gaol, to take-his
trial at the•nezt Assizes.

Thursday afternoon, as a young man of the name
of eseorge Thorti was painting the parapet of a house
in Coppice.row, Clerkenwell, one of the stones gave
way, by which he was precipitated into the.street.—
He was carried to St. Bartholomew's Hospital with-
out hopes of recovery,
Tuesday se'nnight, two men who were bringing
wood from Barium, upon the river Ness, Inverness,
in two rafts, came in contact at the Baugh, when
one of them threw out a rope to a young man, Ja- es
Fraser, who harpened to be near upon the bank, re.
questing him to tie it to a stake, th:tt he and his
neighbour might get their rafts disentangled ; whilst
Fraser was endeavouring to do this, the rope twis:ed
about his right thumb, and the current being very
rapid, tore it clelin away; the poor fellow did not,
hoisever, shew the least sympte,ms of uneasiness, and
when a surgeon, in dressing the wound, expressed a
'fear that be gave him pain, he said, " I d:in't mind
the pain; but I am afraid that it will disable me from
writing."
