ATTACIISMT OF A SOLDIRR TO HIS licrass—Last
week a person from this office witnessed the following
interesting circumstance, which occurred in Manchester:
—A private in the 6th Dragoon Guards going down
Market•street, recognized his horse, which had bees
sold with many others, by Mr. Capes, on the previous
Saturday, in the act of drawing a cart, whe ; he ienrne•
diately ran after the carter, and pitting a shilling into
his hand, earnestly implored him ro use the animal
kindly, as it had been his faithful companion in many a
hard fought battle. Three gentlemen who witnessed
the scene, were so pleased with the humane feeling
which the kind hearted soldier exhibited, t at they each
gave him half a crown.—Stockport Adveiliser.
Extract of a letter from Heztot !trine, Esq. of Clover
Hill. Donegal, dated 13th of August 1827:—" On•the
morning of the 10th instant, we killed in lover Buy the
most enormous animA of the seal kind, called a tea
lion, in a sprats net—li had the gunnel of my boot
quently under water, but fortunately (the last time he
fastened on the side of We boat with his fore-paws) ore
of the men hit him on the head with a foot sf.ur, and
bothered him so much as to be able to get himintotla
boat, where they kept bearing him until he was dean.
liepreyeksAitalinnine feet four inches from the snout to
the end of his tail, five feet ten inches in girth, and
weighed 7291b5. His snout is like a cow's, his teem
like a dog's; his head is remarkably small, the nail, oi
his fore paws seven inches long and very strong, those
on his hind paws are shaped like a goose's foot. Tins
animal is the wonder of the fishermen, who come heie
in hundreds to see it, and some of them say it bas been
known in the bay these forty years, tearing their nets
constantly."
A young man, named Henry Mills, met witla &se-
vere accident on Monday afternoon. He was employed

it having got too full, he endeavoured to remove some
of it: unfortunately, the wheel of thc machine, which
was going round last, caught his hanJ, and chew it into
the box, severely lacerating his arm and fingers. Me.
dical aid was procured, and an amputation of one of the
fingers was found necessary.
Tuesday evening, as a young man named Caulfield,
who is deaf and dumb, was crossing the fields leading
from Somers to Camden Town, he was stopped by two
men, and not being able to call for assistance, they
stripped him of his coat, waiscoar, and trowsers, in which
were ss. and decamped with their booty. The young
