NOTTINGHAM, JAN. 4.—On Friday 'night last two frames were broken in Pleasant-row, in this town,— One more, we understand, has since been broken in Milk-street, and three others in other parts of the town. In many villages in this county, and on the borders of Derbyshire, the terror and alarm of the inhabitants is such, occasioned by the late nocturnal attacks on the property of peaceable individuals, that they are afraid to go to bed at nights ; and it has been deemed necessary to keep watch alternately, for the protection of their property. A serious- accident happened near Alconbury, on Saturday last :—As two ladies (Mrs. Grimshaw and daughter, who were going to Wakefield) were travelling post, the reins broke whilst the driver was attempting to pull the horses up, when going faster than he' wished, which so alarmed the ladies, that both jumped out,. and, melancholy to relate, in their fall, one fractured her 104 dreadfully, and the other was very seriously bin red. They are now under surgical assistance, at the Wheat-sheaf, at Alcoabury Mil. Statement of Duties paid by the Di-tilleries in Great Britain for the last seven years, from sth Jan.

We add also, with much pleasure, that Mr. BROOKES, of the Strand., has; at his own expense, adopted sa districtme meaof the sure, not only to be circulated through the Savoy, but to be transmitted to the Churchwardens of every parish throughout the Metropolis.
