MOST •TROCIOUA ATTENInt AT lasassiNATloN.—oh
ll'eduestlay morning, between the hours of two and three
o'clock, the sentinel stationed on the ministry road, lead-
ing from Usher's Island to the Royal !hospital, where
the lace going to 31.selame Steven's Hospital intersect*.
the road, observed four risen approach !sill!, lel he
challenged, Who e es there ?" They anowen sl,
" Friends:" they then pretended to have souse alterea-
won with themselves, in broken Spanish, until they crane
close to bins. The soldier, who is a private of the lilt
Foliates., of the name of George Boyd, Ironing served ,
in the Peninsula, conceived that they nere pen.ioners, I
and unsuspectingly let them near hint, when tlsey hum.-
diately demanded his asimmuition ; to which lie replied,
"he would not part with it but with his life." They
then knocked him down, and iiroceetleti to cut his great
coat to get at his cartunclee-hux, upon which he cried
out " murder!" as loud as he could--isuleed so loud
that the watchman of the Pisani% !roll Foitndry„ Grow

river. 1 hey then said, tie must silence this fellow, i
Of we will he discovered," and made a (Wolverine cat at
his throat with Rouse very sharp instrument, which cut
at the collar of his great coat, the uniform coat, uul the
leather stock, whirls was nearly cut through: they then
cut him in the left thigh, as if to hough him, and then
dragged him towards the river, for the purpose of throw-
ing hint in. Luckily for the poor fellow, the sentinel at
the gate heard the cries, the guard was turned out, and •
d corporal and two men proceeded to the spot, which put
the fellows to flight before they could perform their dia-
r boliral purpose. When his comrades cause to the spot
where he was lying, they found hint in the way we have
. described, and his arms and autniunition taken away
the pouch was found at day-light, near the river, and
one loall-'•artridge at the upper end of the lane
to James's-nreet. lir was taken to the gnarol-house,
and from thence to the Military Hospital, at Arbour-
kill, whera the surgeons, having inspected and dressed
his wounds, expressed their opinion that there are good
hopes of Isis recovery, alihungls be received severe bruises
from the ruffians. The unty description that ran lead
to a detection as yet, is that of the %I:nebulas' in James's-
street, who ststeo, that between one and two o'clock he
observed a car, with tour men, driving towards Kilonain-
hans, two of them habited as 'tailors% the taller two with
friar coats. IVe trust that, through the vigilance of our
excellent police (who are particularly on the alert), the
wretches a ho hate committed this alYorioas orme may
be taken and brought to justice, • •
