I tempted to leave the house, but was prevented, and at yoked on the lauding of the room of the second floor by game desperadoes, with whom he maintained a long and desperate conflict, during which the stairs were literally torn up, and the walls bespattered with blood. He was seen at the window crying for help, bet was dragged away by the persons in the room. A woman residing opposite them sow several persons enter the room. and a woman lift the man off the ground, and deliberately push him through the window into the street, where he fell on the curb-stone. An alarm heing given, Ftirseman and Clarke, officers. with several watchmen repaired to the spot, and had else man taken to the hospital. He was covered with blood, his skull fraetnred, and several of his bones broken. nireeman then entered the been, and secured several women, the ruffians who had been seen heating the man having made their escape. The interior bore evident masks of a recent conflict, and every thing appeared in the utmost confusion. The bannisters were torn away. as if some person clung to them, and the room was covered with blood. The injured man remains in the hospital, and declares he was attacked and beat senseless in the room by several persons, but recollects nothing about being Haug out of the window. He is a strong man, and acknowledged making considerable resistance. Very little hope is entertained of his recovery. A wo man named Price directly 'weir before the Magistrate to the woman Pethick being the person who threw Sawyers set of the window, The prisoners, in their defence, severally declared that the conduct of the man was very outrageous, and ac counted for his being found in the street by saying, that lie was so extremely intoxicated that he fell out of the window, also alleging that lie received no injury in the house. . . . _ The Magistrate said, he never heard of a more flagrant outrage, and reminded the prisoners for a week, to as certain whether Sawyers could. swear to any of them, should he survive. For list purpose Furzeman was directed to endeavour to discover the men who were in the house at the time of the affray. TOWN HALL, SOUTHWARK. Cu sitlse 01 MUltDia.-00 Thursday, John Lambert, a porter in a corn warehouse, was brought up on a charge of killing his father in law, James Al!bighorn, a labourer in the same employ. John Harvey, the night constable of St. John's, stated, that about ten o'clock on the previous evening, while standing near the door of the watch-house, lie heard a shriek, •pparently from Back-street, Potter's-fields; he ran there directly, and found • man lying on the ground senseless, and the prisoner and his wife near. On in quiring how it happened, the prisoner immediately said lie did it, but he only pushed him ; he did not strike hint. The witness assisted in removing the man into a public house, and then took the prisoner into custody. The circumstances which led to the unfortunate death of Allingham were detailed in evidence by Mr. May, the landlord of time Three Tuns public house, Hack-street, llorselydown, where they had been previously drinking, and by a fellow labourer of limits, wlio was in the house iii company with them front whose account it appeared, that the deceased was intoxicated and quarrelsome in the public house; that there hail been some words between him and • man of the name of Shuter, but their differences were made up, amid they shook hands. Afterwards the deceased began to quarrel with his 3011 in law, the pri wuer. Nu blows, huwever, were struck, and by the interference of the landlord this quarrel was also made up, and the old man and his friendly pot of beer between them. The prisoner, it seems, then urged the deceased to go home, which lie ob stinately refused and on the son still pressing him, lie struck him more than once. This was all that happened within the house, which they ShOltly after left together, and in • few minutes the shriek before mentioned was heard in the street. 'the body was brought into the house, there was a cat on the back of the head ; but the deceased never spoke, and expired in a few minutes. A surgeon arrived, but not before AHingham was dead, who declared that the skull was not fractured. The primmer, who seemed much affected, said lie had no animosity against his father in law ; he b4(l been guar. telling with him in the house, and when they came out began to goon again : he did not intend to push him dowry but merely put his hand to him and said. " Be quiet, you foolish old man," when he fell backwards. The deceased, it was stated, had beets frequently subject to tits. The prisoner was remanded, to await the verdict of the Coroner's inquest.

There has lately arisen in Yorkshire, and in various other parts of the kingdom, a religious community calling themselves Primitive Methodists, from what they consider an adherence to the principles and practice of the original followers of John Wesley, by others they are called Ranters, from the fervour of their devotion, which frequently manifests itself in bunts of enthusiasm, which run through 'heir public assem blies. On Sunday last, in the afternoon, upwards of 200 of there pers ms were assembled in the upper room o' a wool warehouse at Keighley, for the purpose of holding a loee-feast, which is a species of religious ser vice consisting of a simple repast, after which, such of the congregation as think then own experience will be edifying, relate the particulars of it to their fellow-wor shippers. When the services of the day, which had been peculiarly animated, were drawing to a close, and the people were about to depart, a dreadful crash was heard Irvin the breaking of the timbers of the floor, and in a moment the whole assembly was precipitated thro' the floor into the room below. It is impossible to de scribe the scene of confusion and dismay which followed. —The shrieks of the females au.d the groans of the wounded spread consternation th gh the neighbour hood. The young and the more ac,ive generally escaped without much injury, hut from fifty to siary persons, a large prirtion of them old women, were severely crushed awl wounded. An old woman of the name of Martha Wood, died on Monday night; and a number of others lie at the present moment in a very dangerous state. — The following is t list of some of the stilforers, with the nature of their injuries :—Ti 1111 l thy Ami er. leg and arm hroken.—Mary Peck, one of her legs broken.—liarrison Itigtow, one of his arms broken.—Withlow Wadding. ton, one of her legs broken.—Elijah Green, his leg broken in two places.—liarah Sunderland, her leg and thigh brokew—Martha Bradshaw, foot dreadfully in jured and arm broken.—J . Naylor, his arm broken.— Susannah Leach, her thigh broken.—Mary Jones, her leg and thigh broken.—Nlary Carter, a widow with three children, her collar-bone and three ribs broken.— Mary Rainsden, severely hurt, and since delivered of a dead child at a premature birth.--Wtdow Wilkinson, crushed sea dreadfully that her life is despaired of. The other sullferers are many of them labouring owlet severe wounds and contusions, and the usitation of the principal part of them is truly deplorable. Poverty, in most of these cases, is added to their o:lier sufferings; but the more opulent inhabitants of the place have very laudably opened a subscription for their relief. Disceverin ie Egypt.--Extract of a letter from Rome, dated August, 1821 :—" A young Englishman, of the name of Waddington, who has lately arrived in this city, has penetrated upwards of 600 le.uttes above the second cataract, in following the army of the Pacha of Egypt. In the whole of the way he fell in with only a few small Egyptian 1111 l numents, in desolated situations, and of no very remote date; but on his arrival at Schayni, where the Pacha encamped, he discovered 35 pyramids of from 50 in 120 feet in height, but in a very ruinous state. lie also saw seven or eight temples, of which one (upwards 43,000 feet 111 length) was ctivered with li it roglypltics. It is probahly in tile neighhourhood of these ruins that search should lie made for Nahattia, and not the Meroe of the ancients.—This traveller has copied some very curious Greek inscriptions. Ile assures us that lie has seen 11001111 g in his travels comparable to Olt aunt auntutuems of Nubia, and that he considers that pro vince as the cradle of the arts in Egypt." On Wednesday morning two labourers, who are employed, amongst oiliers, its pullin,t down some old houses in Great Russell -street, Bloomsbury, were at work tan the ground•iiiior of °tie of the houses, when suddenly a huge beaus at the top gave way, which, together with an immense quantity of bricks and nir lir, fell with an alarming crasn, and the two men, named William Dolton and Daniel Davies, were buried outlet 'math. The remainder of the workmen, with great alacrity, hegan to remove the rubbish ; a evcitimilly the poor fellows were extricated from their perilous situation, iii a state of great exhaiistiow—They were, without delay, conveyed on shutters to the NI id dlesex-hospital, where they were examined by the sur geon. who declared they hail not received the slightest titjary ; upon which the linen, after thanking the sur geons, went to work, previously taking a glass of whiskey.

The rash act is believed to have arisen from the profligate conduct of a young woman to whom he was attached. Some few months back he formed au acquaintance with a female who lived servant to two foreign gentlemen in Finsbury-square, and he was re ceived as a lover and as her intended husband. Within a few days past it was insinuated to him, that she had been carrying on a criminal intercourse with one of her masters, and that she was in a state of pregnancy. This intelligence so affected his mind, that he became me lancholy, and appeared quite dejected. About 6 o'clock oil the evening preceding, he called on his faithuleas in tended, and remained with her till six o'clock in the morning, when he left her, and proceeded to the place where he committed the dreadful act. It is said that overtures had been made to the unfortnnate man by the master of the young woman, that he would give him fool. as a portion with the young woman if he married her in the state she was in, but this he indignantly refused. This season, w family of young sparrows, four in number, quite white, were observed, scarcely fledged, in Bothwell parish, and immediately given chace to In the eagerness of pursuit three of this unfortunate fa mily were killed ; the remaining one was caught, and sent to a gentleman at Glasgow, where it died on Toes day se' 'gin, but uttfortunately in an unfit state for preservation. Thus has the beauty of this family bean the cause of its ruin A tremendous storm of thunder and lightning, accom panied by the bursting of a water-spout, occurred at Holywell, Fun shire, on Friday. The water came down torrents fr o m Pen-y-ball, bringing with it immense quantities of atone and gravel, and cat tied away a house and store-braise, at Greenfield, filling up the pool with stories. The pavement was forced op, and holes made in the new road four feet deep. The picking-room belonging to a cotton factory, and a shop, were en tirely destroyed. The water broke the windows of the Old NH', carried away the wall it the hottoin of the garden, and floated the beer and liquors out of the cellar of a public-house. Biles of cotton, household furniture. &c. were seen Homing about, and a hay-stack was car ried away some distance. The roof of the rolling-mill belonging to the copper-works was also carried away ; and the smelting-house caught fire, in consequence of the water breaking into the furnace; a great part of the yard was carried away, and In tolls of copper lost. The garden of I). Pennant, Eal. sun of the celebrated tourist, was nearly destroyed. Ilubterm.—Ori Monday night a most daring robbery was comiuitted in Wmtechapel-road, on the person of Mrs. Fitx,, a respectable widow lady, reading in Glou cester-terrace, Commercial-road. S i te was seized, while walking, by a 'Allan, who thrust his hand into her bo som, and with great violence tore a mittature, set iii gold and pearls, to which was suspended by a chain round her neck, and which was attached two gold seals. The thief made off, but was sulnequently stopped and - cured; lie had previously conveyed the property to his associates, with which they escaped. He was takes' be fore the Alagistrates at the Police.offiar, in Lambeth. street, where he was reco,plizud by the officers to be the notorious Jack Lynn, who is the head of a most forut i. chide gang ill fiddlers, that hate for a considerable time infested that quarter. Ile was folly coinnutted fur trial. DitEADPIL OCCURRUNCL.—Io further aceumullt on of the horrors itscident to the slave trade, we have to notice the fate of the Spanish ;laving schooner arida, which sunk a few days since off the Gsllinas, with a full complement of slaves un board. The Cart,ta sailed from the Havannale, and w.is found at the Ciallmas by Sir George Collier, in ltis voyage down the coast. The cargo of the Cgirkis was on shore. with every appearance that it was ill the course of barter for slaves. The Com modore took her down as par as Cape Coast, and after atittlelitlealliig some papers to slmw the illegality of her voyage. allowed her to depart. Sue returned, it appears, to the Gallia:is, and there took in 250 slaves, with whom she sailed Iron the Coast; but dreadful to relate, before site ha I proceeded far she was taken unprepared by a tornado, overact, and sunk, and all on board perished, with the exception u! twelve! The intelliasuce of this horrid event has been brought to the colony by three Spanish sailors belonging to the vessel, who arrived a few days in a set) , small boat in a wretchedly exhausted condition. Tory were imnotliately placed in the mili tary hospiul , where, notwithstanding the greateat anew. tion and kindest treatment, one of them h .a since died : the other two continuing sofl in a very weak state.— Sierra Leos Gasame.
