A sheriff's officer, under an execution against the corporation of the borough of Sudbury, lately entered the Town Hall, and seized and removed their property; consisting of the Mayor's gown, with other paraphernalia, scales, weights, stall staff, between 200 and 300 buckets, fire crooks, &c. &c.

He was an eminent classical scholar, and possessed considerable poetical talents, of which our pages have afforded gratifying testimony. It was his lot to suffer keenly from adversity; but the pious resignation of a Christian, sustained him in all his troubles and privations.

KENT.

NICHOLSON, the murderer of the Bonars, made the following confession before he was executed :-"I, Philip Nicholson, in order to clear all persons from suspicion, confess that I committed the murders. I neither had any accomplices in the room or elsewhere. I did not know of it myself five minutes before. I was asleep on a form in the servants' hall; I waked about three o'clock: I was dressed, and took some of my clothes off, I then took the sheet off my bed and put it round me, and took the poker from the hall grate, and secreted it under the sheet, after which I took a lighted candle in my hand from the hail, and entered the room of my master; I looked about me when I entered; I saw mistress and master in bed; I gave mistress two blows! She never moved; I left her and went round to my master, gave him two or three blows. He said, "Come to bed, my love," and then sprung out of bed and scized hold of me, and nearly overpowered me; I struck him on the arms and legs with the poker. He struggled for fifteen minutes; I at length got him down, and struck him on the head; I left him groaning and went down stairs; I washed my hands at the sink in the butler's pantry, opened the house door, and the drawing-room windows. My shirt, neckerchief, and stockings, I took to the shrubbery before the door, and hid them under some leaves."

HAMPSHIRE.

A remarkably large male fish, of the species called Boops, or the Pike-headed Whale, was discovered ashore upon the inner side of the Shingles, opposite to the Needle Kocks, on the 10th instant, which measured screnty-two feet from the point of the nose to the top of the fin, at the extremity of the tail. At the time it was discovered the animal was making strenuous exertions to get off, and in its endeavours to do so, the tail was frequently elevated to a considerable height above the surface of the water, presenting at a distance the semblance of a small sail-boat, which, at times, suddenly disappeared and produced a great surf and motion on the surrounding water. A party from Hurst Castle proceeded to the spot in a small lighter, armed in the best manner their means furnished, to secure the prize. With due caution they approached it near enough to inflict several deep wounds on and about the head, from which it bled copiously, and which, in the exhausted state it was reduced to by the time of their arrival, soon produced its death. Thousands of spectators from the Isle of Wight, Lymington, and the adjacent country, went to see the fish, and the town of Yarmonth was filled with visitors during several days, to an extent never before re

The case of the four officers who were found guilty at the last assizes of the murder of Lieut. Blundell, has been determined upon.

SOMERSETSHIRE.

Some remains of a Roman building, and other Reman antiquities, were lately discovered at Wraxtall Wood, in the parish of Ditteredge, near Bath. Among other things, fragments of seven or eight coluns, nearly of the Tuscan order. small aqueducts, scarified tiles, and other indications of baths; urns, basins, and other utensils of red and black pottery; a vessel of glass, a specimen of flat window glass, small brass coins, &c. The columns were preserved; but the altars, flues, glass, pottery, &c. were deranged and dispersed by the labourers, and the greater part of the coins thrown away.

On the 11th of September the BATH HERALD, the Rockingham of Hull, a Canterbury Paper, and some others, afforded evidence of the gross misconduct of persons on whom the public rely for the communication of the important contents of the French Journals. The London papers of the 11th were without the particulars of the decisive victory gained over the grand allied army before Dresden on the 26th and 27th, whereas the papers named had the same articles as the London papers of the 12th. There is foul play in some quarter. News is often delamed to give effect to previous or contemporaneous counter-reports, and to all kinds of tricks and manœuvres, and often for stock-jobbing and other purposes.

Notices are given in the Bath Herald of new enclosures at Berkley, Standerwick, and Beckington, and at Dundry.

The Dorset Society distributed its premiums on the 29th of July, J. J. Farquharson, esq. in the chair. A poor man had five guineas awarded him for bringing up the largest family without parochial relief-a sum which we think altogether incommensurate with the degree of merit, -say rather five guineus per annum, and a free cottage!
