Eighteen deserters were yesterday morning
marched into town; from Ireland, and safely lodgial
In the Savoy. Amongst, the number of these men is
Thomas Fagan, whew apprehension was recerilly
stated in a Ptiblin Paper.' This extraordinary 4a-.
rioter is said to have concealed himsek foe upwards-
of 14 years in a wood in Ireland. His apticiailibcp is.
truly savage. On his back the hair has afoot* the.
appearance of bristles. Ilisionly covering 'lra pair-
of trowsers, as he constantly 'rejects every other
'species of cloathing. It is •by itone.doubled Whe-

who, in a state ,of mental. deraageinseit, tray have
made his escape from those to. whose care .he may
have been entrusted.
Toe DISAPTOINTO TnisvEs.--Early- on Wed.
nesday morning the house of a Grocer, the corner
of Henry-Ereet, on the. Hampstead Road, was
broke into by taking up two stones in front, and
,forcing open the door of a cellar. About four
o'clock, whileilie rubbers were busy packing up,
some cows passed the house on their way to be
itilked, one of which fell down the opening into
the cellar. The thieves, terrified by the noise,
made the best of their way to the top of the house,
,and contrived to make their escape over the roofs of
the adjoining bUildings, but were completely disap-
pointed of booty. Four hours elapsed before the
tow, which was big with calf, could be extricated ;
alt was not, however, much hurt.
The great success that has attended Bra's Offices
for a considerable number of years, and the known
' punctuality in paying all Prizes on demand, will,
he hopes, insure a continuance of the public favour
in the present Lottery, which has the novelty of
having only 4,000 .Nitinbers, 5,000 Prizes, and Five
Prizes of 20,000!. Tickets and Shares arc to be
had considerably cheaper than last Lottery, at 4,
Cornhilt, and 9, Charing Cross.
