apopliezy.-- A verdict to that effect wits recorded.
MIRACULOUS ESCAPL—A scene of asgreat pasonal
danger as any on record, occurred on Thursday night.
ThelVaterford coach arrived as usual at seven o'clock
'sit Carrigtowhill, about eighetlnies distant, and there
eathanged horses,during which the coachman and guard
alighted. On their being about to resume their places,
rthe-horses *elm of at foil speed with S inside (a Gentle-
Man and two Ladies) and one outside 'passenger ; they
drove on tor four miles, until a Gentleman, observing
the absence of the coachman and guard, dispatched
hit servant on horseback to give his assistance.—
the man could not restrant the spirited animals as.

seaseded in directing theft heads in such a manner,
by his action and speaktog, as to prevent their cone
tact with the iron railing, which nimbi have been
certain destruction to all t They still boanded on,
and notwithstanding the windings of the road, they
reached %he entrance of the City, where for the first
time the inside passengers became acquainted with their
danger, on which the ladies screamed aloud, and
waved ;hire handkerchids it distress, which excited
tech a lively feeling among the crowd, that just
Ilss -the horses -had arrived in Patrick•street, and wee
striking for the offite, a man rushed forward and seised
the reins of one of the leaders, and his example king
quickly followed, the horses were stopped without other
injury -than the fright occasioned to the passenger!.

he answered with an oath, seized Mr. Tacey, by the
collar, struck him several times with an open knife,
threw him down, and repeated his stabs—one of which
`struck Mr. Tacey on the groin, but, very fortunately,
fell upon the watch which he had in his watch pocket.
Mr. Tacey, however, succeeded in disengaging himself
front the villain, and ran up into his -lodging room,

followed him. Mr. Tacey immediately smock at him
several times, the burglar attempting to return the
Blowy with his knife. -The fellow made his escape,
but is supposed to have been wounded in several places.
