bEATH OF THE DOIPAGER'COUMESS • AfARKEri.
ST4INHOPE. y.
of MEACMaArtitgl;•l?". only from
•••• • _ . . _ . .

Oa the tweuty-eighth instant, departed this life,
at her country seat at Ovendon in Kent, after a foe/
days illness,
.the Countess Dowager STANIAPE, in
the ninety-third year of her age. Her ladyship was,
the relict of the late Earl SvatctroPr, and the mother
of the present Earl. A parson more remarkable IT
acuteness of understanding. and exquisite sensibility
of heat t has perhaps never existed. Notwithstanding
her very advanced age, she retained her faculties en-
tire ; and the superi( r qualities of her mind only ap-
peared the more conspicuous, from her possessing
them at a period of lite when the affairs of this world
seldom attract our attention. Such was her philan-
thropy, that she always took the most lively interest
in every event that occurred, even in the remotest
part of 'he gl!,be, that could anywise affect home-
and the confident expectation of a
future and a better state, were to her (what they uni-
formly are to all good and virtuous characters) a
never-failing source of comfort and exalted happiness.
The distressed always found in her ladyship a warm-
hearted friend ; and 11,2 r judicious and extensive cha-
rity relieved many huFdreds of the poor in her neigh-
bourhood. The amiableness of her disposition was
never more strikingly observable than in her last
moments ; and one of the affecting expressions which
she used a short time before her death, was, that s:te
had the consolation to reflect that she had never eparel
any trouble to be of we.—Her ladyship has left a will,
in which she has bequeathed her property to her only
son, the present Earl STANHOPE, whom she has ap-
pointed her sole executor. By a codicil, she has left
legac;es to several of her old and faithful servants.

BOW-STREET.—YestcriaT, James _Roulton and ow-
-6.7:n ..'arch were charged with having stolen the body
of :;ti elderly female, from the neighbrairlioad of
Bronyton, on Sunday evening. It appeared by the
!testimony of a hackney-coachman, that the two pri-1
i soners, in company with another man, who escaped,
I hired his coach at the end of Sloane-street, and nr-
-1 dered him to drive down the Brompton-road. On
; his arrival near the Hollis public-house, the three
persons alighted, and soon after brought something
iin a sack, %%hie!. witness at first refused to take, lest
I it might have been stolen goods.* On the assurance
1 of the three persons to the controary, the sack was ad-
d milted, and the coach was driven to the house of a
iSurgeon, in Windmill-street ; but the door wasaot
opened, and the coachman aas ordered to drive to
Smithfield : but a mob followed from a whisper,
and the coach was stopped in Great Queen-street.—
On the sack being examined, it proved to contain
the body of a woman; in a very mangled state. The
coachman and the two prisoners were imaged in St.
t Giles's Watch-house; and the latter were committed
' for trial at the Sessions. The corpse remains un-
