Last evening, as Mr. Scott, a master baker, late cf
Ne. 8, Duke-street, Aldgate, was passing along Alsigate-market,
he suddenly dropped down, and instantly expired. It appears that
on the morning of that day, being in embarrassed circumstances.
the whole of his property was seized, and he was turned out of
doors. The unfortunate situation he was thus placed in is sup-
posed to have preyed on his mind so as to cause his sudden death.
Monday last, a procession of weavers and other
operatives out of employ at Blackpool, was got up, for the purpose

iu vain remonstrated with them on their conduct ; the military was
called on for assistance, and, headed ►y the Mayor, the mob was
quickly dispersed, and the city soon regained its asual quiet.

the persons charged on suspicion of having been concerned in the

for which William Tonks (calling himsef Jones) was to have been
executed on Tuesday last, were yesterday examined. Thos. Toots,
brother to the man under sentence of death, deposed, that his brother
having informed him that the above prisoners were concerned with
him in the robbery, he went to them at the public-house in Belton-
street, to solicit relief from them for the convict, which not bring
able to give him, the latter begged that the property which they
had stolen from Mr. Stanhope might be restored; and after some
time Archer brought the property alluded to, which Thomas Tanks
returned safely to Mr. Stanhope. Archer being the person who
had produced the stolen articles, Sir Btcstaaa Status remarked
that there was not sufficienebvidence against the other two prisoners
to warrant their committal on this charge; but as other charges
might possibly be adduced against them, be ordered the whole of
them to be remanded for further examination. _ _
