      1 Highwat RoBBEBr neab . . —During I the last fortnight or tbree weeks , several highway \ robberie 3 h ^ ve been commitied and others attempted oa or near the New Strevford and Stretford Roads , . generail ; attended with violence ; but we have seldom . known one 50 daring , or aecoaipanied with so many proofs of reckless brutality , as the one we are about to record . On the evening of Friday week , the 18 ih in st ., between eight and nine o ' clock , Mr . Howarth , flour dealer , Shndehill , was proceeding on horseback . to hi 3 residence near Stratford , when he observed , while passing'St . Gaorge ' s Church , Hulme , t&at 1 several men were following him . Suspecting no-. thing , however , he continued on hi 3 way , through ; the Cornbrook toll-bar , the men still following

      ' him ; and shortly after he had pissed the Northnmberland Arms Inn , while he was riding slowly : along , they made a rush at him , and one of them I seized the bridle of the horse , whilst the : others attempted to * poll him to the ground . Ha called ous ' Marder ! " and " Stop tiaef ! " and an ol 4 man ,-named Henry Harrop , a carrier , from Bowdon , hearing hia cries , ran up immediately to his assistance . The moment , however , that Harrop went np , he was knocked down by one of the robbers , wi ; h a heavy bludgeon ; and while in a state . of insensibility on the ground , he . was robbed of a purse containing four sovereigns and some silver The next person who came up was Joseph Gratrix , a waiter aJ the Northumberland Arms ; and he also , wa = knocked down , the blow rendering him for some

      time insensible . By this time a general alarm had been given at the Northumberland Arms ; and a number of people came out , which caused the robbers to run off towards the toll bar , before they had succeeded in robbing Mr . Howarth . Tbey were pursued for some distance by Sir . Barber , landlord of the above inn , and other persons ; but they effected their escape . Information of the robbery was , of course , immediately communicated to tho police , and Superntendent Taylor caused every inquiry to be made likely to lead to the detection of the thieves . About nine o ' clock on Sunday evening , iu consequence of some intelligence he received , he proceeded , in company with Inspector terry , to a beer-house kept by Samuel Nixon , in Lord-street , Hulme , where he found three men of suspicious character , named William Rogerson , Richard Painter , alias Marriott , and Timi / thy Tomlinsori . He ascertained from the landlord , that Roeerson had gone there about fivo

      o ' clock that evening , and had placed an old-fashioned watch , three sovereigns , and ten shillings in silver , in his ( -he landlord ' s ) possession , to take care of . On the officers asking Rogerson what account he had to give of the money , he said , " What do you want to know for t I shall not cell you anything about it . Do your best ; and when you ' ve done all you can , " then . I'll tell you . " Rogerson was then rakeii irsto custody ; but the other two men were net apprehended at that time . In the course of njxi day , however , further information was received , which caused the police to search for them ; and one of them was apprehended on Monday , and the other on Thursday morning last . The two prisoners then apprehended were brought up before Mr . Maude , at the New Bailey , and the charge was stated ; but Harrop was unaole to attend , in consequence of the severe injury he had received , and the prisoners were therefore remanded .

      j Accident akd Miraculous Escape of Lives . — 1 An accident happened on Wednesday morning last , 1 aj the premises formerly occupied by the owner , ; J . P . Park , E :-q ^ cotton manufacturer , Withnell , i situate in Edward-street , Friargate , in this town , i but for some time past tenanted by . the present occu-1 pier , Mr . Samael Jones , iron and brass founder , I and steam-loom manufacturer , which might have I proved of a very fatal character . About ten o'clock i ill the QVOXning , as the workmen were following their ; usual employment ( no warning having previously ! been given ) , all on a sudden the roof and walls of j the premises fell in with a crash , burying the whole ' of the workmen employed under tho ruins : but we

      , are happy to say , that the whole of the people emj ployed escaped with their" lives , ' owing to the very r peculiar and sloping way in which the roof fell ; I otherwise the w " nole ; of them must , in all probability , ' , have instantaneously perished . As soon as possible , j the paor creatures were extricated from their very perilous situation , and conveyed , with all possible : haste , to the house of Mr . Weslby Walker , surgeon , who promptly and humanely dressed their numerous * wounds , aiid otherwise rendered them that aissiat-; ance their complicated cases required , several of ¦ them having ; received very severe sprains , cuts , and ; bruises . We are glad to learn that they are favour-: ably progressing . —Preston Chronicle .

      Highwat Robbekt at Newton-Heath , j ^ eab Mahchester . —On Monday last , at tlio New Bailey , the . following prisoners were brought up , charged with robbing Dr . Jerrold , of Greenhcys : —Robert M'Cleraon , John Jackson , John Balfe , John Thomp-: son , William Crojlsden , and Janata Ward . It ap-; prared , that , on the afternoon of the 17 th instant , : s bout four o'clock , Dr . Jerrold was proceeding along Hulme Hall-lane , sometimes called Hyde High Hall-! lane , near Newton Heath , when he was met by a party of men , one of whom took him by the arm , end said he wished to accompany him ; shortly after , : another came up to him , and began to rifle his pockets . Seeing them intent on robbing him , he as-! sisted them , withdrawing from his pocket his watch , ' and all the cash that he had . amounting to between 1 nine and ten shillings . While rifling his pockets , ¦

      . ; one of them struck him with a heavy piece of wood on the head ; another stood at some ! distance , with a spade in his hand , apparently looking on , though evidently connected with the ( pany . He ( Dr . Jerrold ) said , that , if they didnotill use him , he would not make any alarm ; on which , the party who first accosted him , and who appeared to be the leader of the gang , prevented the others ¦ from further assailing him . The blow he received ¦ was not a very severe one , but such as for a short ' time to confuse him . The prisoner M'Clemon w ? s I placed m front of the bar , and Dr . Jerrold was 1 asked if he knew him ; he ( Dr . Jerrold ) said he did , j and he much regretted to say so ; he would sooner have assisted him if in want , than appsar against I him ; he was the person who first accosted him , a ^ d ; took h- ; ld of his arm , and prevented the others from I ill using him after ho had been struck . At the time M'Clemon accosted him , he wore a white

      ' shooting jacket , which made him appear somewhat ; diffrfrut to what he did then ; he ( M'Ciemon ) being dressed in a velveteen coat when brought up : Police-officer Fletcher stated , that the prisoner ¦ M'Cleapn usually dressed in a white coat ; and be had other witnesses to prove the fact . — I The prisoner- ekid he had no other coat i than that in which he then appeared . Vlr Bent , who defended the prisoners , cross-exam-. ined Dr . Jerrold , as to his being positive as to ihe identity of the prironers . Dr . Jerrold had not the slightest doubt that all the prisoners were present at | the time of the robbery . When the five prisoners ' were first taken before Sir Thomas Porter , at the Salford Town Hail , on the day after the robbery , Dr . Jcrrold said he could not speak positively as to their

      bek ";; the party ; the reason was , he did not like to be hasty , though he had then little or 110 doubt as to their ioentiry . Mr . Bent argued that such evidence rhould net be allowed to deprive men of their iioerty . No vc ; tii ; c of tbe stolen property had been found on the prisoners , except it might be said that the five shiJliL-gs and sixpence was a part of it , of which there was not , the slightest proof . Mr . Maude observed , that it was to be regretted that Dr . Jerrold did not give fuiJy his impressions at the first examination of the prisoners ; but there was little or no doubt it arose from a good mc-uive , to get corroborative evidei . CS ; and , notwithstanding what had been said-, he OJr . Maude ) ieli h his duty to send the case before a jury at the assizes . Tbey were all committed accoroiii >; -y for trial at the next assizes .

But , besides this increase in the list , we are aware that a great number of applicants have been off sill the committee can obtain funds ti . a ; will enable , ' . hem to relieve them ; and , in addition to the increase in Paisley , the villages , of Birrhead and Kilbatchan have again broken cown , and a considerable number of the inhabitants have thrown themselves on the county committee for support . In KUbarchan about onehalf the weavers are at present idle , and the number of unemployed is daily en the increase . We- have made inquiry in the best-informed quarters regarding the probable effect of the China news on the

      trade of Paisley ; bat the parties who are mosc sanguine O ? Ifcviv&i can see no prospect of improvement , but , on the contrary , a eontinn d throwing ou ? of of hands for some weeks to come . In Paisley the price of cotton yarn may be quoied at about id . perlb . higher since the news in question came to hand ; and in adcition , the manufacturers' association have sold some 7 , 000 or 8 , 000 pieces of . : their goods , within the Jast two days , at t « n advance of riom 5 to 7 | per cenr . beyond what they could previously have obtained ; but still this advance is ; ao little to admit of the goods being replaced ; and the price ihey have been sold at , aiitr paying for material and workmanship , weald not leave above h& ; f lii ' e necessary sliOw ^ uct- lor the wear and tear c ! machinery to wcik them even by tha power-loom . — Giascovc J-rcus .

      A Ca-rebul Wife . —There 18 in the town of Bariisky a very careful and industrious woman named Wood . She has been so careful , that although she seldom lets a day pass without using her needles , yet she is using part of the last pennyworth she bought twenty years ago , one of which she broke last . week . She has not bought a single half pennyworth of pins _ during the last forty years , nor has she had any given to her . A few days ago Bhe gave her husband a severe reprimand for losing a packingneedle , which she said she had bought " nobbut four years sin . "

      Murderous Assault andRobbert . —Qn Saturday as Mr . Sheffield , of ChuTchover , bstcher , was returning from Ru »» b . y market , with his journeyman and apprentice , in & cart , about eleven p . m ., tho man observed as he was in the act of 'descending from the cart , that there were two strangers standing near the gate through which the cart was to pass . The men no sooner heard the ! remark , than one of them struck the assistant . a : violent blow with a bludgeon on his knee and face , whilst the other ascended the cart and struck 'Sheffield a blow 021 the forehead , inflicting a severe wound , and another on the crown of his head , which , ifc ia feared , has fractured his skull . Sheffield had no sooner : received the blow than he fell out of the cart into the road ; the horses immediately turned round and ran away . The

      assistant , being alarmed , jumped out of the cart and was pursued by one of t . ie ; assailants some distance , till stopped by his companion crying out to lot him go , as he ( the second ' robber ) "had go 6 the right one . " The apprentice it is supposed , "jumped out of the cart as soon as he saw his master fall , ' -as-he was the first to reach the village and giye the alarm . Mr . Twycross , one of the . conatabies , nccompanied by a neighbour , immediately went towards the spot , and met Sheffield staggering along the road ; the latter immediately r'dqutjsted Tvvycross to go to the railway station atRasby , aud give instructions to the officers to stop any suspicious characters . After doing this Twycross went and obtained the assiiftanoe of Inspector Stanley ^ an active officer in the rural police , whom heaccompatiiedto all the disreputable

      houses in the town , but . without being able to obtain any clue to the party . They then went to the place where the robbery had been committed , and found one of Sheffield ' s gloves . Upon looking further , tlie _ y traced footsteps in a direction for Newton , a village notorious for bad characters , near Rugby , and in passing throHgh a spring they found the other glove ; upon reaching Newton ; they went into the houses of several suspicious characters , and in one . they discovered a man mending his nets , with some blood upon his clothes , for which hs accounted by ' saying , that he had been fishing . Inspector Stanley , however , at once took him into custody , and on Monday i morning he was taken before a bench of magistrates _ at Ru ^ by , when sufficient evidence was adduced to justify tho Court in remanding him , and

      strong hopes are entertained ithat both perpetrators of the crime will be brought to justice . It appeared that two or three market vans had passed through two of the gates on the road leading to Churchover within a very short time of the robbery , without meeting with any molestation , but upon Sheffield's cart coming up ; to the ¦ ¦ third gate it wa . 3 tied ; there is , therefore , little doubt but the robbery was cont-Bitted by parties who well knew the hour at which Sheffield returned from market , and also that he was possessed of a sum of money . On tho night in question he hM about ; £ 50 about hini , the whole of which was taken away . Upon reaching home he

      was immediately blod , and Wr . Buoknell , of Rugby , surgeon , sent for ; that gentleman , with his assistant , promptly attended , and , after dressing the wounds , re-bled ' the patient , who was then put to bed . Mr . Buoknell has [ since . been in close attendance , and this evening , we regret to state , that-the opinion of tho medical man is far from favourable as to the probable results of the injury . Too much credit oannot be given to tbe residents of tho village , nearly all of whom , as soon as the alarm was : given ( half-past eleven at night ) , arose , armed andmounted 'themselvep , and raised a hue and cry in parsuit of the villains .

      Atrocious Murder . —It i ? our melancholy duty to record the circumstances of a most atrocious and cold-blooded murder , whiob was committed'on . Sunday evening last in the neighbourhood of St . Helen ' s . The victim is a young married woman , of highly rospectable connexions , and the wife of a painter who has lately been employed by Mr . A- T . Woods , Of St . Helen ' s . The tragedy is aggravated by the supposition that the miscreant who perpetTated the deed is her own husband . At present it would be highly ; censurable to attribute so dreadful an offonce to any individual until : there has been a judicial investigation '; but , from what has already transpired j wo are afraid thesurmiso above alluded to will prove a reality . So far as we have been able , to collect the particular circumstances attendant upon this

      shocking . event , it is found , that on Sunday afternoon the husband of the deceased wont tij church , : and afterwards , say about five o ' clock in the . evening , took his wife along with him for a . walk . The direction they took from tho town was up the Liverpool-road ; and about teven o ' clock in the evening they called at a public-house , in Eccleston and on tho Liverpool highway , where they- had each a glass of rum Nothing more was seen of them in company ; but about , eight o ' clock in tho eve : iii ; g the husband , whose name is tyilbrabam Buckley , went to the house at which he had been . lodging , and inquired for his wife , stating that when at the top of Comb Shopbrow , nearly half a mile from St . Helenty'he had occasion to leave his wife for a ; few minutes , and when he returned to where he expected to find her

      she Lad gone , and had not since been seen by him . He made inquiries for her at other pJaces where she was accustomed to call , but ho could not fiud her , and went to bed , giving the parties with whom he . lodged to understand that he imagined his wife must have gone ' to . Ash ton , ' where her mother lived , and he would follow her in the niornin £ . This story did s ' . ot appear impobable , for his wife , whose awful . end wo are now recording , was very far-advanced in pregnancy , and her mother , as it was known , had invited her to Ashton , there to stop for her accouchement . Eirly on . Monday morning Buckley left Ids lodgings- for Ashton , and at about a quarter before eight o clock the body of his wife was found in a field at the top of Comb Shopbrow , with a dreadful wound inflicted in the throat—the wincipioa and

      veins of the neck being completely divided . Information was immediately forwarded to the police station , when Mr . Superintendant Storey , with his officers , proceeded to the place where the catastrophe had occurred ; and the body being removed and afterwards identified , pursuit was made after Buckley to Ashion , by Mr . Storey , and two other .-gentleinen , in WhitechapeJ , aud shortly before reaching Ashton they met Buckley along ¦ with his father and mother travelling towards Sfc > Helen ' s . Mr . Storey took Buckley iuto Whitechapel , and on reaching St .-.. Helen's he was examined , and bis shirt sleeves were steeped in blood almost , up to the elbows ^ A knife with two blades was also found in his possession , but ho stains of blood could be detected . It would be unwise to give . credence to ail the tales which are fly tng about respecting Buckley's guilt ; but a fuUinvestigatioh will be made . to-day ( Tuesday ) before the coroner . Suspicion at present is attached to no other person but Bucklev .

      but he strenuously denies his guilt , and states that the stain upon hia shirt is colouring , which he had been using in his daily occupation . The excitement produced by this fearful event is very great in the neighbourhood of St . Helen ' s , and hundreds have not only thronged the place where the body lies , but as many have applied at the police-station for permission to see the suspected criminal . If Buckley be guilty , it is supposed by those with , whom he was acquainted that jealousy had been hia incentive to rivl himself of his partner , while it is reported tkat she was a very temperate and prudent woman . Such are at present all the particulars we can supply to our readers of this sad and horrible deed ; ' aud how dreadful it ia to contemplate that " there is even a possibility of the devoted wife having fallen a victim to the direful malice of her husband , and that at one fell stroke he hurried his conjugsi . partner and '' her first offspring into a premature and untimely y , r& \ s . —Liverpobl Mail .

      THE LATE WHOLESALE INFANTICIDE IN THE FOREST OF DEAN .,. . ' DEATH OF FRANCES BENNETT , THE MURDERER OF HER CHILDREN . GxoucEsxEK , Saturday . —Few occurrences have excited a more painful interest in' this quarter than the investigation which terminated in the committal of Frances Bennett from Ruardean , in the Forest of Dean , to the county gaol in this city , to await her trial at the aBsizss . The circuinstanbes have been stated , and are shortly these :: —Frances Bennet , after the death of her husband , by whom she had several children , lived with a man nanied Yapp , a haulier , the children by marriago having gone elsewhere . About a month ago , Bennett , under the apprehension that she was about to die , made a disclosure to a clergyman , in the presence of several persons , to tho effact that she had six children by Yapp , but none of them had been allowed to live , she having suffocated

      them immediately after birth . She told where tho remains of the bodies would be found . The latest murder , according to th ? confession of the woman , was perpetrated about Christmag last year , and the spot which she indicated as containing the remains was fouud on examination to conceal the most perfect skeleton of auy . The truth of this horrid confession having in this way boen placed beyond a doubt , information wa ? Bent to John Gooke , Esq ., ono of the county coroners , who instantly proceeded from Gloucester to Kuardean to institute an investigation . The witnesses examined on tha inquest consisted chiefly of the pert ons to whom the woman had niade the confession , including the clergyman who had communicated with the magistrate on the subject , and the persons who had found the remains of tbe bodies . In course ef the examination of the

      clorgjmah by the coroner , it came out that ho had had a second interview with the wretched woman , none being preaent but themselves , and that she had made some additional disclosures ; The rev . Gentle oian , however , on the ground that what ho was told upon this occasion was mixed up . with his " spiritual " duties , refused to communicate any particulars , although pressed to do so by the coroner . The woman , moreover , began to deny that she had made any such confession as that sworn to by the witnesses , but enough had been proved to justify the jury in returning a verdict , of wiHul murder against Bennett and her paramour , Yapp . The latter was instantly removed ; . to Gloucester , but the state of Bennett ' s health Was ! such as to induce the coroner to delay the order for her removal till it could be effected without . danger . .

      Oa the afternoon of Thursday , the 17 th instant , the iniserable woman arrived at the county £ aol in . a fly , attended by Air . Bird , a medical men . She was carried up stairs to the hospital , and on being placed On the bed , she said , " Now I will die happy . " She died early on the Friday morning . This day ap iiiqufcst was held on the body , before John Cooke , . Esq .. the coroner , who conducted"the investigation at Ruardean . Disease . had reduced the body to a perfect skeleton , but the appeitrance of the ^ . features was more , pltasiug than otherwise . Mr . Cooke , who saw the . deceased alive about three weeks ago , remarked that her face had undergone little change . " ; , !

      Tde first witness examined was Eliza . Gansmore , one of the nurses attached to the gaol , who stated chat she was directed to wait upon the deceased bboitly after her arrival . Deceased often thanked God that she had been removed , andsaid that she was much happier in gaol than at home . . The Coroner here stated that a rumour was abroad t&a& . ' -t&e deceased . was in the family way , and he a'sked the witness if she could speak to the point ? . ; . - ¦ .. ¦ : . " . '; The witness stated that she asked the question of deceased , and ehe stated that s&e was not . Deceased said that Bhe was only thirty-eight years of age . ¦¦; '¦ ..... '¦ ¦ -. ' . . "¦• : ' ¦ . ¦' . ' ., " . ¦¦ .... ¦•¦¦ . .. '¦¦ ¦ ¦

      Maria JNuttal , another nurse , was next examined . She _ said that she was present when the deceased died on Friday ; morning , aiid was with her some days ' pre-V 1 OUS :. She asked witness to read and pray to her . Sometimes when she w <« s reading the deceased would say " Stop ; wait tilU ' m better , " and when she recovered she would ask her to go on . As her it&ih approached she seemed to feel ' . . contested . ' She was sensible to the last . She said that ghe had been ill for about twelve months . ' Mr . . Hickes , the surgeon , stated that the com plaint of which the deceased died was pulmonary consumption , and , in his opiiiior , the removklttorn RuardeaiJ bad neither hijartd nor : benefitted her . She seemed to be aware ti . at she could eai-yive only for a ftw days . ' : , She' mentioned to him and others that she hid been Hem to gaol , charged with the murder oi her children , : ' : :, The jury returned a . verdict of " Died from natural causes . " " . ¦ : ' ¦ .
