We ire !Ivry to annouitce one of thn stinat elfieTt •
sive robberies of the mail that havewccurred si tee
the establishment of mall-Coaches. • When the filet
of the robbery reached the Exchange yekli'tliV. it
got into general circulation, and rrliliced t consi-
derable degree of alarm throughout the city. The
.deposition of the guard was taken at the M:rnsion-
bouse. The examination was priva.o ; of ci.ursc the
paiticulars have not been suffered to iransiii re ; but
we understand, that on Monday iiiAht, while the
Leeds mail-coach was proceedimc at a sharp, pace,
between Kettering and iligliam-Ferrars, the coach-
man spoke to the guard ; and tint being able, or pre-
tending not to hear what he soid in answer, re-
'vested that he would lean forwards over the coach.
The guard did so, and continued about rive minutes
'ln conversation with him ; when, on resuming his
seat, he found, to his astonishment, that the lock
of the lid of the hind part of the coach, where the
bags are deposited, had been forced. Ile instantly
ordered the coach to be stopped, and communicated
to the driver the extraordinary occurrence flint had
taken place, and his suspicinns that most se, jou= in-
jury hid been suvained. • The coach having pulled -
up, the guard and the coachman proceeded to
mine the repository of the mails, and missed 'no less
than 16 ba,,s, viz.-

The LORD MAYOR Sent Of Police Offic..rs t.
directions, to apprise the bankers its Loudon anis
Westminster of the robbery, and to stop such per- .
anus as should present bills and drafts of payment
from the towns whose mails had not reached the
Post-Office yesterday morning; printed circulate
were also forwarded by post to every post-town in
the United Kingdom for the same purpose.
It will perhaps be recollected, that a few years ,
ago the Leeds mail-coach,ln its progress from town,
was robbed near Barnet; but it being the evening of
a Fast-day, there were scarcely any money or remit-
tances in the bags. Ch s the present occasion, the
amount is said to be great.
