lot to report the vitalist events of the dtio, I. have
net had to record toy eircumistatte *bias ha* me• • ed w
at with more grief gad indignation, than what bees:
eerily arises out of the following lamentable adventure!
—Between five and six o'clock et the evening of
day last, Miss Anetilbtirn and her father Mr. Jathee .
Tilburn, of Wiggingtor, were returning from Mr..
James Cook's, of Osbaldwiek; and proceeding beset
without the smallest apprehension that any obstrne..
tion whatever could possibly lay in their way. tat
the wicked ingenuity of some villainous culprit or cog'
prits, ruled it otherwise. The horse on which hash
father and daughter rode, came to a sadden halt, ea&
rearing and plunging as instantly, east Miss Tabor',
-with violence to the ground. The cause of this
aster was. the horse coming in contact with a tarot'
rope. which bad been strained breast ligh across the'
road, and apparently for the distinct purpose diem;
clueing the calamitous effect which followed. Tile Tit;
burn immediately alighting from his horse in a treas.
port of agony, which a parent only could feel, are
vancedlowards his beloved daughter. who had, haw.
ever, risen from her fall without aid, and even walked'
few yards, but with a hesitating and agitated step...
As the father approached the suffering child shwa.
claimed, in broken accents. " Father ' take hold et
me ;I am sick." Unable to say more, she sunk late
his open arms, and fainted away. During this state
of insensibility, the anxious father exerted himself for
her recovery, and questioned her bow she was? as if
unconscious that no reply could he returned. Alas!
too soon was he convinced of the sad reality. Beene
the expiration of ten minutes, the lovely chili of his
affections, the gay companion of his ride, breathed her
last upon his bosom, and was taken house a lifeless
corpse !—Calamity being consummated, it now remains
for justice to commence its work.—(l! orkshire Gazette.)
HIGRWAir Itonseatee.—On 'Monday evening last,
between six iatti seven o'clock, Mr. Davies, of East-. •
hope, on his return from iVenlock Market, was stopped
near Westwood by three foatpads, who presented a
pistol at him, and deoountled his money. Mr.' D.
gave them two sovereigns in gold. and four shills
in silver ; the latter of wlo kb. the gentlemen• rerepte
litelg returned, observing they wanted either gold or
bills! They then allowe t Mr. Davies to proceed.
Shortly after, •Mr. Whiteloote, of Lungviile,
and
his neighbour, Mr. Daniel Lowe, who overelike-
wise returning from ouarhet, were ;studied .by the'
same men. IVUIst they more robbing Mr. Whitefoote,
Mr. Lowe ;nude his escape, and rode to; grestloope, for
assistance, where Mr. Davits had previously given the
alarm. The rob'oeis took , from Mr. Whiteloote about
eight guineas. A number of men pursued the thieved,
and, it is supposed, drove two of them into the town
of Wetolock, whilst the third escaped into a weed.
By this time the report of the robbery had reached
Wenlock, and soon after a stranger of suspicious Ale
pearance, wltta,b4eWit his horse at the Falcon Inn,
in great haste, an}} caned fur a gill of alt., at the same
time desiring theloStler to bring out his horse
as•his lousiness was very urgent. Instead of com.
plying with his oder, the ostler fetched the constable;
at the sight of whom the fellow bolted out of the
house, hot was soon overtaken and secured. Upos
his person a powder-flask was found, but no &wares.
These are the facts. as related to us by, a mamas
just returned from Wenlock, and we have no dosht of
their accuracy. It ie reported that another of the
robbers is in custody.—The preceding occurrences,
and the season of the year,-will suggest to our ens.
try [dead' the propriety, where possible, of avoid-
lag travellino 'after dark, at any rate of not journey.
ing without sufficient cempatiy_—(Solopian Joursal.)
On the morning of Tuesday se'unight, about flea
o'clock, as Mr. Odey, of Barbey, was retuning free
Rugby Fair, he was stopped by two men, about a wile
from Rugby, who pulled him off his horse, and thee
robbed him of 3 itil, and upwards, with whirl the reb•

bars got clear off.
The same night, a fire broke out in a malt-house bt
longing to Mr. Downing, at Boyton, by which the
whole of the premises and about 390 bags of barley
and malt were consumed, notuiz.h. t nding the utmost
exertions of the inhabitants, to subdue the Italics.
