V. -a. prism to 40s. observing that another dealer had given the price, ♦aughan considered it an imposition, and they quarrelled on the subject. Vaughan having withdrawn to a public.house with one of his grave fraternity, was followed by the gravedigger, who, in spit*, deossanced them to the people present as body snatchers. To bury away the grossing anger of the audience, Vaughan im mediately retorted on the grave-digger. lle hesitated to .t to straw that the grave-digger had received upwards of 701. within the last three months, in the course of which time he (Vaughan) bad been supplied with 43 bodies. The sensation produced by this information on the public mind may easily he conceived.-- Muslrands,t wives, fathers, mothers, brothers. sisters, sons, and daughters, rushed to the ground ; the graves were opened, and ant many of their dearest relatives were gone from the tomb.— distress and fury oommonicated with the populace who had assembled around ; an attack was regolaily commenced upon the house ander which a gateway leads to the burial ground, and where the persons lived who hail the care and received the fees fur interment, and presently not a pane of glass remained in the front or at the back of the premises. Most probably the rage of the populace would not have stopped here had not the polic.r-oflicers of this olke interfered for the preservation of the public pease. . . 0• Thori;day meting t! grave digger was taken into cus tody, and brought before Wm. Bennett, Esq. the pre►iding magistrate, who remanded hiss Tor further examination. When this man vas brought to Ilse office, be and the officers were ear ronnded by an immense concourse, who rent the air with their ,assertions, and it was with difficulty he was preserved from the veagerutee of °enraged feeling. o.i Friday the work of opening the g was still going on, which induced us to ei+it the spot, where we beheld a scene revolting to all the common feelings of humanity. A large concourse of people orowiting to the gate, which was guarded by the patrole and parish officers, sod os the grimed were pre- scnted groupes of relatives looking with dreadful anxiety to the °lisping of each grave. 03 one side we beheld the wild extaey of a tender mother, who had with her own hind+ dui out the coffin of her °net darling child, and though its weight intimated that its (inmate was nut fled, still the mother war not satisfied, the lid was . gently opened, when she became convinced and frantic with joy. On another side stood • youth. about eighteen, his eyes fixed on Ilse ground, and his countenance shaded over with the gloom of despair. lie had examined the graves of his departed father, mother, and little brother, whose empty coffins were to Lim melancholy proofs of the fate of their bodies. The whole scene was distressing even to a bye @tender. Waggett, the grave digger, was again brought be fore the magistrate, when Vaughan and another resurrection In attended ; but they bad only to state, that the man who was the immediate trader with the prisoner hail told them, lie had received an impression, is wax, of the key to the ground, from the grave digger. He was remanded for the ptodoctioit of this witness. ~ tONSR'S - INQUEST: On Friday forenoon an inquest was held at the Burlington ATM T , Chiswie.k, before Thomas Stirling, Esq. on the body of • young lady, name unknown, who was picked up in the liver Thames, between Chiswick and B James Ifildyard, e•waltarinan of Mortlake, in Surrey. stated, that about ten o'clock on the morning of Wednesday last, he was going down the river in his boat, with a fare to London, when off Barnes di re his son, whoa was pulling one of the sculls, observed a body floating on the surface of the water. Witness pulled towards it and found it to be that of a female, but in such a slate of putrefaction that it would not have bee■ proper to have taken it into the wherry. He therefore waled a boat from Chiswick, and the body was towed along, and placed in a shell i■ the bone-booze. The deceased had on a bleak bombasin gown made high, a pair of new shoes, white cotton stockings with silk clocks, a lace cap, esti • Leghorn bonnet and feathers ; she had a pair of glove► on, and in her right hand was a whit* pocket handkerchief, grasped tight with her lagers. She had no property about her, our any thing to lead to a discovery who the deceased was, or W whom she was coo fleeted. The Beadle said, that on roarsday morning a number of persons came to look at her. anionst whom were two young nom. One of them he understood had cot a lock of heir from the head of the deceased. One of them lived in Hummer smiei. The jurors expressed a wish to have that young open ex• mined; aorl he WAS fetched by the beadle. He gave ids imam John Lowhold Harry, a printer, residing at No. 86, Fleet market, but was on a visit to Hammetsroith. He adivitt..d being with others in the place where the deceased lay, but denied any knowledge of law, or eapressing a, wish to have some of the hair, nor did he bear any one else whilst ha was present. He cut none elf. The Jury expressed themselves estiafied at the explanation, and no further questions were asked. The Reverend Thomas Freer Boweribank, M.A. view of Chiswick, said, that in couseqnenoo-of reading an account, on the 15th of March last, that as Mr. Molus, residing in Fludyer street, Westminster, and two ladies, were amusing themselves in a boat at Battersea-reach, one of them over reached herself after a little pug-dog that bad fallen into .the water, and we% drowned ; he had made inquiries in Floilyer-street for Mr. !Bolus, thinking the deceared was that lady ; but no such per son was known there, nor in Iliad neighbourhood. He had been unremitting in his endearoars to trace oat bee frieads, but without success. The Coroner said it was a melancholy circumstance that no person claimed the poor creature; and, as there wan an evi dence to prove how she came in the water, the jury could re turn no other verdict than ...found drowned." The Jury retained a verdict tothst etiece. On Saturday week, as Mrs. Moore, wife of Mr. Moore, attorney, L iiicaster, was sitting ,before the fire with a child five weeks old in her lap, a spark flew Wider her chair, which she entleavoinel to pm inside tile fender with her font, when a light sliAwl which she wore caudal fire, and she W 23 inst3titly enveloped to flames. in her terror she threw toe child on a sofa, and rail to the kitchen, in which was the hosekeep:r, bill she, also terrified, ran into • the street calling lor help; in consequence of this delay, before any person arrived, Mrs. Nloorc was so clreadfrilly burned, that she lingered its ex7ructating agony till Alunday evening, when death put an end to her si.flerings. Ott Monday morning last, about ten o'clock, as a poor matt was crossivg opposite to Fleet-markei, a coach with a pair of horses knocked him down, and the vehicle passing oVl'r both his thighs, broke one of them ; lie WJS plu d upon a shutter, and immediately conve)ed SO St. Bartholomew's Hospital. 'HE NATIONAL REGISTER MELANCHOLY EFFECT of FRIOHY.—A fire occur. red a few days ago at the extensive shoe manufactory in front of the Blind Asyl ,in the London-road, which was got tinder without material damage. Mr. Nlackeis sie, the proprietor, was a short distance from home at the lime it broke out, and was instantly sent for express. He mounted the messenger's horse, and set off frimi his friend's in the greatest agitation; so much so, that he rode over 1 fide boy in the Lainheili-rued, but happily without seriously injuring him. Ott i.is arrital at the warehouse, lie found four of the Loin:l-hail police officers and some neighbours, through whose exertions the fire hail been nearly got under, even before the arri val of the Fire-office engines. Ilia alarm, however, was SO great, that he was utterly unconscious of the presence of friend or foe; and though by this time all danger hail subsided, he cannoned for a long period io a state of absolute stupor that alarmed his family. Medical advice was called ha, and every attention paid to his distressing situation. Nothing, however, could relieve him; and though the damage to the house was immaterial, his stock uninjured, and lie was also folly iastir.4l, he never recovered the sadden shock lie sustained ; the malady increased so rapidly, that all hopes of saving file va• niched, and he expired on Tuesday last, a victim to excessive agitation. DREADTOL ACCIDENT—Om Monday morning last the Swallow Dover coach upset on Shooter's-hill. It appears that the driver, on the descent of the hill, was holding the reins tight up, when they broke, and the hones darted off al speed, rendering the efforts of the coachman to slop than unavailing. Opposite, the Red Lion, at the bottow of the hill the coach overturned, antra French, lady, on her way to a brother in London, was dreadfully injured in consequence of the coach fall ing upon her. The vehicle was raised by the help of several men, and the unfortunate sufferer extricated and taken to a tavern, where she was visited by Lady Robe, who resides in the neighbourhood, and Dr. Patten , but it is feared site will not recover. A very curious circumstance occurred on Thursday morning, at Nottingham, 'Mich has more the appear. ance of romance than of serious truth, and yet we are assured the latter characteristic may be . atm& I to it.— Niro) , of our readers may have seen in " Black tier's His. tory of Notiiiigham," an account cf a cave which runs imiler a hill called 1)og-Itentiell.hill, on the west side of the road leading front Mary's Workhouse to the Gals lowvhill. This cave, which is the largest in the town, nearly 400. yards long, and supported by numerous pil lars of the native rock, was hewn out by one James Ross; and into its recesses file light of the stri has ne ver yet entered. The Corporatiompurstsing some plans of improvement they have in view, have discharged the inhabitants.of the rock houses near it, and on Wednes day a man attempted to explore the mysteries of the ca tern, and alter remaining in it nearly fife hours, was conducted out on paying a slam of money to somebody he met therein, who seemed well acquainted with its secret labyrinths. Two individuals in the town heard of this ciactimstince, and determined to explore it, and having provided themselves with lights, they entered about tO o'clock on Thursday morning. Their lights, however, only served to render the surrounding gloom more visible, and when nearly bewildered, a man ac costed them with a light in his hand, who, in the most courteous manner, offergd himself as their con d uctor; they trusted theinselveaLb his guidance, and in a short time he led them to a place, where they discovered five men titling round a light and 'slaying at cards on the ground! Their conductor asked' if they wished to Fo back again, and, of course, they replied in Vie affirma tive, and he led them away, but they were soon attacked by a gang of ruffians, most probably the saint that they had seen playing at cards, by whom the lights were put out, and one of them was beaten in a shameful man ner. The other escaped in the dark, and hid himself The first man, despairing of life, offered all the money he had if they would let him go ; they then led hini to the side of 2 hole, reputed to be 15 feet deep, and filled with water, and then demanded the fulfilment of lair promise. Limier the apprehension that lie would be killed, or thrown into the water and drowned, he gave • up his money, and they pointed to a light at a distance, by following which, they told him, lie tvottlil obtain Ins liberty. Ile did so and escaped, hut found himself considerably hurt by the rough treatment lie had re. eeived. His more fortunate companitio, who had fit lowed at a distance, escaped also, Miff without injury.

DREADFUL Fiaz.—The neighbourhood of Wych.• street, Strand, was very h alarmed on Nlontlay 11111 l at five o'clock, by the springing of the watchmen's' rattles, and the attrieks and cries of " fire!" which proved to have broken out iti the preinisesof Mr. Noyes, tallow chandler.

Mr. Noyes was obliged to escape in an almost slate of nudity, at the window, without' omit sufficient apparel to clothe hint ; a Mr. Kilpatrick, who lived over Abbott's livery stables, brought hint a pair of boots. and he was obliged to be clad in the street. B' this time a number of engines arrived, and a large supply of water being obtained, they begat. to play very rapidly; but site buy of the flames had reached that great extent, that the flood could not quell. At-six-the roof fell in; and the conflagration now became greater than before, and _ crranniunicated to the house of Mr. Lindsey, paintar and glazier, adjoining, which was soon guned. The next house, occupied by Mt.Teick, tmdertaker, nearly shared the sante fate. Here the bughnes began to have full play on the ruins, and a great supply of water staid the flames front spreading any farther. Great doubts were enter tained fat the Olympic Theatre, which is opposite, but , fortimately it escaped injury. The distress was very great among sooty lodgers, whose whole property fell a prey to the element. Both homes were held on lease, by Mr. Lindsey, and we regret to say, were not hatters!. - The property, we lerstand, of Mr. Noyes, was ist sured in Ott Westminster—Sol, he had saved to pay his rent, he could tint even get out. It cannot be as.v ••- tensed how the: fire happened. It is said, an elderly lady is lost in the ruins of Mr. Lindsey's, which Wll hope is not the case.
