V* Admiral Oi' TItere were only two prisoners for trial; one. a young woman about 20 year's of age, named Eliza- beth Woods, for stealing a pair of'siver buckles, and some"articles of i con- victed: the other, EMUI Williams, indicted under the Act of Parliament generally called Lord Ehen- !borougli'a Ac);, for stabbing, was acquitted, the insanity of the prisoner being evident.—On the old issue day a cause was heard which occupied the attention'ot the-Court fyr a considerable rime: it was an actdon of 'ejectment brought by tin: widow of one Griffiths against a Mr. Watbins, to recover the possession uf a house mDevynock; but the plâiJrtitT not making out her case to the satisfaction ot the jury, they gave-then .verdict for the-de- fendant; Mr. Justice Haniinge, however, having some doubts whether "certain parts of the evidence legally applied to lhe matter in dispute between the parties, was pleaded in the evening Court to direct a new trial of the cause.—Counsel for the plaintiff, Mr. Alien • aud Mr. Hughes attorney.

On Sunday se'nnight was baptized, in the parish church of Llettws, in the county of Ulamorgan, by the Rev. Mr. Parry, Ann Thomas, great great graiul- daughter to Elizabeth Thomas, of the same parish, and who stood god-mother to her great great grand- daughter. She is ninety-nine years old, and seems to feel very few of the infirmities of age; for al- though deprived of the sight of one of" her eyes, many years ago, by accident, she can now Icnit. spin, and sew, without the assistance of glasses: and often walks from live to eight miles in a day.— She has now living seven children, thirty grand- t," sons, near one hundred great grand-sons, and the above great great grand-daughter, Ann Thomas. A melancholy accident happened last week to a labouring man employed by Sir R. I,. Blosse, Bart, ot Llanblethian, near C-owbridge, occasioned by the too prevailing but reprehensible practice of servants riding on the shafts of waggons or caits entrusted to their care. In hastily alighting to open a gate, he thoughtlessly put his ht^id upon the crup of the hind horse, when the spirited tni- mal began to plunge, and striking the man do wn, both wheels of the waggon- passed over his sto- 'mach, by which the poor teliow was so much injur- ed, that notwithstanding every medical assistance was immediately pwcured by hIS humane master, he expired in a few hours, leaving a witeanod three children te deplore his loss; to. relief, how- ever, Sir Robert, with that characteristic benevo- lence by which he is- has liberally contributed. Lieutenant-Colonel Thomas Salusburv, of East- wick-Lodge, Salop, and late of Cotton Hall, Den- bighshire,-has patriotically made a tender-of the whole of his military emoluments to Government, for the support of the war. The new stamp duties take place on the 11th October next. Hereford Races commenced on Wednesday.— Mr. Kellerman's ch. f.

Edward Foley. A new Theatre, on a magnificent scale, is to be speedily built at Bath. A" great part of the sum wanted is already subscribed" and the whole is ex- pected to be complete*] in'a few days. There-, is at this time a two years eld pig in the possession ot 1\lr. Evans, attorney, near Carnarvon, I of the very great weight of 50 score, and measures from the nose to the tip of the tail 10 leer. A lady, in a paroxysm of passion, threw herself from a one-pair-of-stairs window of Wynn's Ho- tel, Falmouth, a few days ago, and would have been inevitably dashed to pieces/had not a reiitleAian who sat near, the window, caught her as she was falling, and heid her suspended till a man climbed up on the mail-coach which stood under the win- dow, and relieved her from her perilous situation. On Wednesday night, the 1st instant,' about ele- ven o'clock, a dreadful lire broke out in the wool- len manufactory, of Messrs. John Dennis and sons, in Penzance. The drums beat to arms, the inha- bitants immediately assembled with the engines, and every exertion was made to check the tiames, but all without effect; the fire spread so rapidly among the machinery" and other wooden work of ,the building, that the whole was shortly consumed. We are sorry to add that no part of it was insured. Tuesday se'nnight three fellows attempted to break into the house of Mr. Busch, ia Kirkdale- road, near Berington Bush, Liverpool, in winch there was only a female servant. She, however, resolutely opposed them; fired & brace of pistols at Ciie N,Iiiaii)s li-,ojti .t chamber window, but with- out,, effect; and'then discharged a blunderbuss loaded with small .shot, on which one' of the men dropped, and was carried oit by one of his. compa- (1(",ed nions. The other, rendered desperate by the girl's resistance, swore he Would-have her hie, and en- deavoured to force his way through a lo.wer. win- • dow; which terrified her so mud:, that she,ran to the back part pf the house, and by means of a sheet tied to a window shutter, let'*herself down' into the' lane, but not .without much diniculty.a-nd softie bruises. Having obtained assistanccvsiie re- turned to the house, but no trace of the robbers could be discovered.
