Tut Errom Hurry.—Yesterday, according to annual custom,
a stag was turned out on the Forest, for the amusement of the
Cockney sportsmen; and, although the day was unfavourable,
the field presented a numerous assemblage of sportsmen of all
descriptions, pedestrians as well as equestrians, among whom were
several of the fair At twelve o'clock, the stag was let roost
from a cart, and a scene ensued which beggars all description :
the animal went off towards the borders of Ilertfordshir,•, little
annoyed by his pursuers, most of whom were soon thrown out,
or rather thrown off! About seven in the evening the :animal
was seen quietly grazing in his pasture in Wanstead Park.

Neither the delights of Greenwich-Hill, nor the
sports of Epping Forest seemed to have had any effect
yesterday in reducing the number of customers at
Bias Lottery Offices, which were crowded with ad-
venturers au day, some eager to climb, by his means,
the ascent of Fortune, and others fearing they might
he thrown out, unless they secured a chance for the
royal game, which will break cover on Thursday next.
A respectable young woman, about 20 years of
age, has been missing from her home, at Westbrom-
wich, near Birmingham, since Monday the 2d inst.,
From what has transpired, it appears that about nine'
o'clock on the above evening she left the house (as
was supposed from her not taking her bonnet) for the
purpose of accompanying a young man, a resident
at Tipton, who had for some time paid her attention,
to the gate, only a few yards from the door. The
young man states &at he left her at the gate, and
went home. Every search and inquiry has been made,
but hitherto without effect.

Thursday, an inquest was taken by Mr. Todd, at 11
Toothill, in the parish of Romsey Extra, on view of
the body of George North, an infant about nine
months old, who, on the Sunday morning preceding,
was found dead in a crib beside tle bed of the nurse,
to whose care he was entrusted. Verdict—Died by'
the visitation of God. And on Friday an inquest was
taken by the same Coroner, at Bodey Workhouse,
on view of the body of Elizabeth Burba3e, a pauper,
who died there on the 15th inst. and who was sup-
posed to have met her death from a burn on each side
of her nose, which she received from Benjamin Bur-
rows, the master of the Poorhouse, who,' about three
weeks before, had pinched her with a pair of heated
tongs. Though his conduct appeared extremely re-
prehensible, yet, as it was clearly proved by the sur-
geon who the nose, and other witnesses, that
the deceased died from inflammation of the bowels,
and not from any injury she had received, the Jury
returned a verdict, that the deceased died by the visi-
tation of GOD iu a natural way. The Master had no-
tice to quit his situation at the expiration of one
month, and was most seriously admonished as to his
conduct in the mean time. _

Tuesday last a very extraordinary outrage was per-
petrated in the church-yard of Otterton, Devon. The
grave of the late Rev. SAmtrxr. LaAT, a venerable Dis-
senting Minister of Budleigh, who was interred about
ten months since, was opened, both coffins pulled
abroad, the corpse mangled, the shroud torn to
pieces, and the cloth which covered the outer coffin
carried away ; great exertions are making to discover
the atrocious offenders.

A frightful crime was committed on the 21st ult.
in the commune of Beton-Bazoches, near Villiers Saint
Georges. The widow Crapart, aged 80, and her
three daughters, were found assassinated in their
house, and the greatest suspicions fall on a farmer in
comfortable circumstances, named Vallet, who had
married the daughter of a son of the widow Crapart.
He has been arrested, and examinations are taking
place.—French Paper.
Saturday se'nnight, a fire broke out in the manu-
factory of Mr. CAWTE, tallow-chandler, &c. at Fare-
ham, which in a short time consumed the same, to.
gether with the stock therein, but, by the great exer-
tions of the inhabitants, was fortunately prevented
from communicating to the adjoining bu;lclings.
CARLISLE, MARCH 20.—Yesterday we has a con-
tinual fall of very heavy rain throughout the day,
which, together with the melting of a large quantity
of snow on the mountains and hills, has caused the
Eden to swell to as great or greater height than the
oldest can remember. The island in the river, under
the Hissop-Holme Banks is completely covered, a
circumstance which no one recollects to have before I
witnessed ; and the whole of the low grounds in
vicinity of the river in at least twelve or fourteen miles
of its course, are at this time laid under water, to a
very great depth. At Carlisle the quantity of water
looks more like the Solway Frith with the tide in,
than a river. The water has entered the houses in the
lower parts of Itickergate, Bcc. occasioning much in-
convenience. The Caldew likewise overflowed, and
entered many of the dwelling-homes in Caldewgate.
Mr. Jos Salt l l et; itY, butcher of this city, has lost about
20 fat sheep, the only loss that. we have heard of.
