WADERS'-A shocking murder was perpetrated yesterday morning in Skinner-street, Snow-hill, by la. gang of villains, who knock: i down a Gentleman, at three o'clock, in Seacoal -lane, and attempted to rob him, on which he gave an alarm, when several watchmen immediately sprung their rattles, and ran to his assistance. In the mean time the robbers made their escape down Snow-hill, where meeting another watch. man, named Bloomfield, belonging to St. Sepulchre's parish, running to assist in'the pursui• they knocked him down (it is supposed with bludgetins), and beat him so dreadfully on the head, as to cause his instant death. Three persons were apprehended in the course of yesterday on suspicion.  On Monday evening Mr. Webb, a respectable farmer, at Roddenbury-hill, near Frome, Somez setshire, was murdered whilst sitting in his chair. The dread. ful deed was discovered in the following manner:— On Tuesday morning a young woman called on her sister, who lived in the farmer's service. Her repeated knocks at the door being unnoticed, she opened it, and found Mr. Webb on the floor by the side of his chair, weltering in his blood, having been shot through the arm, and his head dreadfully shattered. On her alarming the neighbourhood, a further search was made; when the body of the female servant was discovered in a bucket-well, with her throat cut ! It is supposed that she was endeavouring to escape from the scel,e of horror, when the illains overtook her, and deprived her of existence. The house is quite detached from any other, and the farmer and his servant were the only inhabitants. His dog having been heard barking loudly about six o'clock on Monday evening, leads to the conclusion that the tragical event was then being perpetrated. If booty was the obiect of the assassins, they were disappointed, as Mt. Webb, though in opulence, was generally known to keep very little cash in the house : the drawers, boxes, &c. had been ransacked.  A distressing occurrence took place on Christmasday, at the house of the Earl of Rosstvw, at Canto-bury. Lord Louonnottoucitt, the Noble Earl's only son, was amusing himself by sliding down the ballustrade of the stairs, and losing his balance at the angle at the top of the first flight, he fell into the hall, and pitching upon his head, was taken up apparently in a lifeless state. Surgical assistance was immediately procured; and in half an hour symptoms of returning animation were observable. His Lordship has continued in a state of insensibility, with intervals of convulsions, ever since the occurrence of the accident.  A melancholy accident happened about 12 o'clock on Wcdr.,Nday night, near Chudleigh, by the upsetting of the new fly-coach, on its way from Exeter, whereby one of the outside passengers was killed on the scot. A woman and child were also on the top of the coach ; ~he former had her arms broke, and was otherwise much hurt, and the latter was unfortunately Wed.—The coach was dashed to pieces, and the other passengers, both inside and out, were c considerably hu't.  A few nights since a Mr. Gardener, of Great The last Extra7rttruify Gazette derailing the conCc );gc-street, We,tminster, was hustled by a gang tinued successes Of the Russians, has been printed of robbers, near the Horse Guards, and robbed of in French and Gretna°, for distribution on th CallIns watch. ! fluent.
