There were two men in She bosse when the murderous attempt was made , but they were too paralysed by the occurrence to secure Hunt , who instantly made his escape , and has not since bsen heard of , although diligent search was made at an early hoar on Saturday morning . It appears that it was a feeling of

      jeaiousj that prompted the wretched man to the committal of the diabolical act ; he had , we understand , Btaay times threatened to take sway the life of his wife , and had been absent from home for several days past . The parties had been married twenty-six yean , and have three children , the eldest being married . Mrs .

      A Modern , Dkfimtjqw of a Danghbocs Mam . —A dangerous man is one who is continually endeavouring to prevent mankind in general : from being injured by the stratagems of the selfish and the kna-very of the fraudulent . A dangerous man is one who sets his face against deceit ; and without deceit it is impossible for the majority of mankind to prosper . A dangerous man is a friend to truth ; and without falsehood it is oftentimes impossible to obtain what we wish for . A dangerous man is an advocate of sincerity ; and if we were all to be sincere , we should have no enemies to encounter with . A dangerous man employs his pen for the public good , and will detest a bad action in a neighbour as much as he wotld in a stranger . A dangerous man advocates the cause of justice and equity ; and by doing thiB he makes all bad men his eaemies . A dangerous man

      acts according to his own judgement , and exalts himself above the influence of wealth , of power , and of . patronage . A dangerous man spares the weak , tbe ignorant , and the helpless , bat the proud , the ambitions , and the tyrannical he notices only to reform , to correct , or to mortify . A dangeroas man is independent ; he enpports what he feels to be right ; and his feelings must be altered before his couduct can be changed . A dangerous man carries his head above tbe frowns of the world ; and none but those who are determined to act uprightly can approach him without wishing to avoid him . It is goodnesB that makes men dangerous ; for good men are enemies to all unjust proceeding- ; and while proceedings of this description abound in tbe world , good men must be dangerous ones . The appellation is , therefore , an honourable one .

      Shtfwreck is thb Meditehbaneaw . —The English brig John and Ann left Newcastle Sor Toulon on the 1 st of August , with a cargo of chains , cables , and coals . JIaviDg discharged her cargo , she proceeded to Malta in ballast , Beeking for freight , and she left Malta for Alexandria , also in ballast , on the 27 th of October . On the 1 st of November , the brig being in about longitude 25 degrees east , she struck upon a rock at eight o ' clock , p . m ., between three and four miles from the shore . The weather at the time was not bad , there was a strong breezo blowing , and the vessel was . going about eight knots an honr before the wind . It is supposed it must have been some strong carrent that drove her out of her course . Ten minutes after the brig struck , then : asts went over ,

      and in half an honr she parted right athwart the gangway , the fore part of tbe vessel remaining on the rock , and the stern sinking in deep water . The crew at the time of the accident consisted of eix seamen and ' the master , an elderly man between sixty and sixty-five years of age . They all clung to the fore part of the vessel , and remained there several days without any nourishment whatever , and unable to use the least exertion to save themselves on account of a heavy swell that had risen , and a strong wind blowing from the land . On the fourth d&y five of the crew got together Borne spars and pieces of the wreck , on which they managed , after great fatigue , to get ashore , but in landing one of the seamen disappeared , and he is supposed to have been drowned . On the

      sixth day the two men who had remained behind followed the example of their companions , and got on shore on eome spars . When they were all united they walked a few miles , and were met by a party of Bedouins , who stripped them of their best clothe * , and it was only after great entreaties that they obtained from them a handful of barley apiece , which they aie with the greatest reiisb . Tbe day after 4 hey . landed the master died , overcome by exhaustion and fatigue . After walking about eighty miles along the coast , obtaining here and there a small supply of barley , the remaining five men reached an encampment of Bedouins , who received them well , gave them bread and water , and kept them in their tents for two days to rest themselves . Two of the

      BedoninB then undertook to bring them to Alexandria , and they started on tares camels , and arrived there on the morning of the 12 th of November , being seven days on the road . The Bedouins treated them all the while very well , and supplied them with as much food as they wanted . The BedoninB who brought the mate and four seamen from the wreck demanded fifty Spanish dollars for their remuneration , bnt the British Consul , it appears ( and by this supposition we take the Batter in the most lenient light ) , did not consider hinmwif authorised to pa ; them more than £ A 2 which the Bedonim

      indignantly refused . Is nrt th « the life of a British subject worth even £ 1 ! In « rder to encourage those people in rescuing shipwrecked mariners and treating them with kindness , Mesere . Briggs and Co ., as Lleyd ! s agents , paid the Bedouins the difference , viz . thirty Spanish dollars , considering that their claim was very reasonable ; and a- BubscriptioD , Tery liberally responded to , is bow in emulation amongst the English at Alexandria , with the proceeds of which they mean to make the Bedouins a further present , and provide the poor shipwrecked seamen with more suitable clothing and lodging than the Coobulate has furnished them with .

      Cubiods Tale . —An old man , following the occupation of boae-collector , residing in the vicinity of Southampton , passing a marine-store Bhopinthat town , Baw in the window an old piece of canvass , part of a picture , having npon it the head of an ox , which was full of Bmall holes , and very much obliterated with filth and age ; he inquired the price of it , which was 8 s . The old man , not having the money , said , " I will pay you a shilling a week until I have paid you for it , if you will save it for me f this was agreed to . At length the pict . re was paid for , and the old man hastened to hiB humble home with his bargain . He was persuaded by some of his neighbours 10 have it varnished , and carried it to Mr . De Lainey , -who then resided in Southampton

      ( and now of No . 32 , Prince ' s-street , Bristol ) , for that purpose . Instead of varnishing the picture , Mr . De Lainey , being struck with its beauty , restored it by a newly-discovered process . After it was done , he offered the old mau £ 20 for the picture . " No , " sayB he , " if it ' s worth £ 20 to you , it is worth £ 20 to look at . " Mr . De Lainey then communicated with some connoisseurs in London , who came and examined the painting . One of them commissioned him to purchase it for him at any ^?^!^ iSOT ^ u « mo ^ ot ft «( Rj ' wM off ^ for it , the old man still refused to part with his treasure , nor is it expected that he ever will dispose of it , although he is in actual want .

      Greenwich Union- —On Saturday the chairman of the board of guardians brought forward the question of allowing roast beef , plum pudding , and strong beer to the inmates of the Greenwich Union on Christmas day . He thought there could be no objection on the part of the board to the usual allowance being given . The clerk said that the now rules of the Poor Law Commissioners were 80 stringent as regarded the dietary of the paupers , which was only to be altered by the medical officer , that he did not consider the board would be justified in making the order . Mr . Mozeeaid , there would be a great deal of dissatisfaction amongst the parishioners if those in the house were debarred from that small enjoyment . Mr . Warmar , the relieving officer Baid , that the out-door poor , wco had only Is . or

      Is . 6 d . per week allowed , and never had a mouthful of meat from one month ' s end to the other , were more deterring objects of a little extra allowance . Tho chairman said that no doubt some hundred pounds would be subscribed for that purpose , and he for one , was ready to become a contributor . As to tbe rules they only prescribed tbe dietary for Sundays and week-days ; but not a word was said about Christmas day , " so they must exercise what they had very little of—discretionary power , " and if they happened to do a little wrong , they would at the same time do a great deal of good ; so that the beat way was to let the poor enjoy themselves , and the board must make friends with the commissioners afterwards . He did not anticipate that would be a task of any great difficulty . The resolution to grant the allowance was unanimously agreed to .

      Attempt at Murder . —On the night of Tuesday last , the 13 th instant , about the hour of half-past seven o ' clock , a party of six armed men came to the dwelling-house of a farmer uamed William Young , at Ratbgibbon , within three miles of Parsonstown ; Young and his family were at the time sitting round the fire ; three of the party remained outside , no doubt to give the alarm should any persons chance to approach the house ; the other three entered , two of whom were armed with a pistol and a dagger each , and the other with a blunderbuss . On going in , one of the follows ordered Young to come upon the middle of the floor ; the ruffian with the blunderbuss placed Young ' s wife and children in a room , on which he remained as a sentinel during

      this murderouB attack . On Young complying with tbe mandate , the two fellows presented their pistols at him , both providentially burned priming . Seeing they had failed in thus accomplishing their object , one of the miscreants struck poor Young a violent blow with his pistol on the head , whioh inflicted a large wound , and felled him to the floor . On seeing this , Young ' s eldest daughter , a girl of about sixteen years of age , who had up to the present remained unnoticed by the fellow with the blunderbuss , threw herself between the villains and her father , exclaiming , * Spare my poor father to his small small children , and murder me 1 ' With unrelenting rancour , and hellish perseverance the vile and unmanly wretches fell upon her , tore

      her garments and the hair from her head , and inflicted no less than four large wounds on her arms with their daggers . In the struggle one' of them also subbed Young in the neck , and inflicted a dangerous wound . Seeing him and his heroic daughter lying insensible on the floor weltering in their blood , and no doubt thinking they had fully completed their bloody and fiendish design , they were about to leave the honse , when the ruffian armed with tbe blunderbuss , who , up to that moment had done nothing except to keep the wife and children in a room , seemed determined that he would close this tragical and heart-rending scene , and discharged his blunderbuss at his unoffending victims . Fortunately he aimed al ittle too high ,

      and consequently the contents of his piece lodged in the opposite wall . They then departed . During the conflict Young repeatedly asked what he had done t The only reply h « got wae , * They woula murder him , and his family Bhould quit that neighbourhood on the following morning . ' The only cause assigned for this outrage is ,, that Young took a farm ( tbe one on whioh he resided , and which contains nearly sixteen acres ) about eighteen months ago , from which the former tenant had been ejected f or non-payment of rent by the landlord , Mr . Robert Cassidy , Monasterevan . Young and his daughter lie iu a very dangerous state , and weak from Iosb of blood . They deny knowing any of their assailants . "—Lexnster Express .

      The Scottish Martyrs op 1793 . —On Saturday the Marylebone Vestry assembled at the Court House , Marjlebone-lane , for the purpose of making choice of one out of three designs selected by the committee for erection in the Regent ' s Circus , to the memory of the Scotch reformers of 17 ° 3-4 , viz . Muir , Palmer , Skirring , Gerrald and Margarot . Mr . E . Joseph having been appointed to the chair , the three designs selected by the committee were brought np and laid before the vestry . Mr . Wilson said , before any of these designs were accepted by the vestry , he begged to state , as a member of the committee , that he was much disappointed at tbe course which had been pursued in preventing competition , upon which subject he begged to present to the vestry a memorial

      which had been entrusted to him for that purpose . The vestry clerk having read the memorial , which was signed by the whole of the artists who had sent in designs to the committee , with the exception of the successful one , a discussion ensued , in the course of which Mr . Hume , M . P ., said he bad never intimated to the vestry that the erection of the monument would be open to competition . ( Criesof " oh , oh . " ) What he said was , that until the site for the monument was decided on , it would be useless for the committee to have the designs before them , and that when the site was decided on , he ( Mr . Hume ) would submit three for the choice of the vestry . The committee had the designs of nine different artists laid before tbem , but none of them were suitable , the spot

      selected in the Regent ' s circus not being adequate to afford for the base a space of more than Beven feet for a monument of not less than from thirty to forty feet high . It was also deemed advisable to have the monument as plain as possible , in order to protect it from wilfsl or accidental injury from the public . The design No . 1 , was such an one as that required . It was a square column , 6 uch as were to be seen in Rome , but be ( Mr . Hume ) believed ibere was no other of the description in England . The base was intended to be made of granite , and the rest of Portland stone . He begged to assure the vestry that it had gone forth by eome mistake that there should be competition . Mr . Gomm said upon the very face of the resolution it would appear that there was no mistake , and that the erection of the column was to be subjected to fair , free , and open competition . It was as follows : — " That the Scotch and English raoBunental committee , assisted by

      Messrs . Hume , Rennis , and Donaldson , select three most appropriate designs for choice of the vestry . " Now , he did not see upon the face of the resolution how it could be a mistake to suppose there would be competition . The motion for the admission of the memorialists was pnt , and lost by a larfp majority . Mr . Glasier then moved that design No . I ( a plain square pillar , the scale being about forty feet in height , with a cap of a Roman pilaster , surmounted by an nrn ) , be adopted by the vestry . Mr . Herbert seconded the motion ; oh which Mr . J . Wilson moved and Mr . Worledge seconded an amendment , to the effect the { design of one of the memorialists ( Mr . Tarring ) be brought in and examined . After some discussion , the { amendment was put and negatived , and design Ho . 1 . adopted by the vestry , with seven or eight dissentients ; and the committee appointed to assist Mr .

      CAriURE of Eoacuers . —A very short time ago , consequent upon a well-kid train , two of the most audacious poachers in this district , were capturod at Washington , in this locality . Information having been obtained by the constituted authorities there , that two of the most notoriously desperate characters that have infested this range for some time past were prowling about near at hand , their lurking place Was ferreted out by our active rural policemen and their assistants ; but from the daring reckless character of the gang it waa deemed advisable to delay any attempt to capture until a strong force was mustered , for which purpose a mesaenget -was dispatched with , the intelligence of their being found oat , and at tha same time , a request was made to the agent of the Perthshire Game Protection

      Association here ; that a strong force might be despatched without loss of time . Accordingly , tha recruiting party of tbe 93 d Highlanders , stationed here , consisting of a sergeant and three privates , were sent off to the scene of action without a moment ' s loss of time , and very sooa thereafter joined the policemen . After stationing a part of the foica round the house to render futile any attempt ; at escape , the sergeant and hia men went In and demanded if those they were in pursuit of were within ? and were answered by the inmate in the negative ; but , of course discrediting this statement , their warrant was produced and a search determined on , which proved unsuccessful in the first instance , but on their entering another apartment , in which was a closedin bed , and * on casting a glance in that direction , there the two delinquents were seen snogly ensasneed , enjoying a very sound and , no doubt ,

      refreshing sleep , as it appeared from the head of game stowed into a closet in the room that they had had a pretty hard , as It was certainly a successful day ' s sport . The soldiers went close to the bed , presented their firearms , and demanded them to sit up in bed and allow themselves to be hamlcufltid , which they had no alternative but to submit to , although accompanied by a gaod many threats and shrugging of the shoulders . On their being handcuffed , a search was made in the room and in the closet above referred to were found two double-barrelled gons , both batrbls of each gun loaded , ; six pheasants , and five hares , procured of course by illicit means . Oo their being secured , they were ordered out of . bed , unshackled , and requested to dreaa , which they did , and were then marched off to this town , where they were kept in custody all night , and sent off to jail next morning . —PeW /* Advertiser . ¦ ¦ ' ¦ . - . - ¦ ¦ : .

      STBUGOI . K FOR POSSESSION—EXTBAORDINiRV Occurrence . —For these last few days much excitement has prevailed in Lambeth-walk , in consequence of the following extraordinary occurrence r—A person named Kern , a German , has recently taken possemiOn of abaker' 8 shop in Lambeth-walk , and , it would seem , is in some pecuniary difficulty , which caused hia being taken under execution to Horsemongor-lane Gaol . Bnring his absence , a party , whose name cannot be given , came and insisted that he bad a right to take possession , to secure his own debt , as he alleged . Kern was released by the aid of a relative , and on returning home , finding what he deemed an intruder in hln house , applied to a solicitor , and , by bis advice , ejaeUd the presumed intruder . The latter subsequently obtainedexecuttonatcainat

      Kern , and by forcible entry made him prisoner and required possession , being accoiupaui « d by several auxiliaries of a very ruffianly character . These tried by every means to drive Kern ' s wife out of the house , but she remained firm to her post . On Saturday , however , she was more assailed than ever . She was looked into a room , and , by refusing admission to provisions , it was attempted to starve her into submission , and to this was added the annoyance of burning tobacco , which produced auch a suffocating effect , aBto drive Mrs . K « n to put her head out of the first floor window , and appeal to the assembled crewds for protection . The crowd during the day conslated of not less than three hundred persona , who assisted the neighbours to convey provisions to Mrs .

      Kein . This so exasperated the ruffians in possession , that when the ladders ascended , they were unceremoniously knocked down by bludgeons and mallets . About eight o ' clock in the evening the crowd had increased to about five hundred persons , and which it seemed in vain for the police to attempt to disperse . The ruffianly conduct of thoae who had partial possession , and by annoying the unfortunate female desixed to become sole occupants , at length created mock sympathy and many friends for Mrs . Kern , and shortly before twelve o ' clock a regular siege commenced , the scaling ladders were used as battering rams , the front was smashed in , and the chivalrous champions of the wife of tbe imprisoned baker entered triumphantly , when

      a scene ensued which bufltes all description , the parties inside , being in some degree connected with the pugilistic corps , evinced a determination to contest every inch of ground , while the assailants , who bad provided themselves with sticks and bludgeons , seemed equally determined . The encounter was very severe ; broken heads and severe braises were given and received on both sides ; and the blood new in all directions . " Murder" was called j and the police entered ; but , with great forbearance , declined to interfere more than necessary to preserve the peace . At length the friends ot the besieged female contrived to eject her unwelcome visitors , and left her for the present in peaceable and quiet possession .
