The Russian frigates Laigkoy, Espaichnoy, and

The importation of grain into Scotland still conti-
nues; of 91 vessels which passed Elsineur between
the 16th and 18th ult. no less than 44 were laden
with different sorts of grain.
A deplorable event took place at Chartres on the
3d instant. A vine-dresser, named Durand, having
to empty a privy, took three of his sons to assist him.
The eldest went down, and fell senseless ; the second
.followed to assist his brother, and experienced the
same fate. The unhappy father called to his third
son to go down and assist his brothers. The young
man instantly descended, and perished. The alarm
spread in all quarters. A party of soldiers succeeded
ir.. •aking a hole through the wall of the privy, and
the dead bodies were drawn out. They were much
regretted, being honest and industrious young men.
A short time back two children, one five and the
other eight years old, residing at the village of
Chonilly, in the arrondissement of Epernay, entered
a neighbouring house in the absence of the proprie-
tors. Having eaten heartily of whatever the !place
contained, they treated an infant whom they found
in the cradle in a most cruel manner. They struck
it upon the head, and to prevent its cries, filled the
mouth and eyes with filth. They concluded by stifling
the poor infant under the ashes. The Judge of In-
struction made inquiry into the business, and the
eldest of those concerned in this singular murder is
committed to prison.
As General Dir.t.ore and Mr. Janne; two of the
Grand Jurors of the County of Meath, were returning
home from the Assizes of Trim, in a gig, they were
stopped by two footpads, armed with pistols, and rob-
bed of two pounds in cash. The General also lost a
gold chain and two gold seals, which one of the de-
predators took from the General's watch, returning
the watch, for fear of discovery by its means. The
General said—" Lads, why rob me ? I have always
been a friend to the distressed." One of the thieves
answered—" General, who should a man in distress
burrow from but afi lend ?" •
