Sunday and Tuesday's Posts.
J.C. Curwen, Esq. of Workington Hall, has invented a machine, by which, with a small quantity of water, eleven stone of potatoes can be washed perfectly clean in two minutes.- A boy can work the machine with ease.
Many of the sudden deaths we read of and hear of, are owing to suffocation in the night by lying too low in the head, and being seized with a phthysicky cough, with suffocates before we can recover our recollection from sleep so as to save life. Having the bedstead raised at the head about four inches above the level, so as to sleep on an inclined plane, will be a certain preventive of suffocation, as well as night-cramps in the legs. - The Gentleman who recommends this, has tried the experiment for years, and found it efficacious.-: Bath Chronicle.
Nothing has yet come to light that can in any degree lead to a discovery of the perpetrators of the murder of Mr.Steele. The Coroner's Inquest sat on the body yesterday afternoon about three o'clock. The evidence was nothing more than what we have already stated, and the verdict was of course "Wilful Murder by some person or persons unknown." -The body was immediately removed from the Ship Inn; at Hounslow, in a hearse, to the house of the deceased at Belfont, where it is to be interred.
Sir Richard Ford, with that zeal which does equal honour to his Magisterial character and to his heart, set off early yesterday morning to Hounslow, to examine, upon the spot, into the circumstances of the horrible murder of the unfortunate and much-lamented Mr.Steele.- Sir Richard having some intimation that the murderers had taken the Bath Road, meant himself to pursue them, as there are reasons for supposing them to be at Bath or Bristol.
LINCOLN, Nov. 5. The annual festivities of this day began, as usual, by dragging a bull into the town, about eleven in the forenoon, amidst the shouts of all the Vagabonds of the place. The animal being taken to Cattle-hill, was tied to a stake, and worried by dogs; when, after he had been some time tormented, he broke loose and rushed down the hill.- It being market-day, the terrified country people made off in every direction; and several women, with their butter and geese, ran into St.Peter's church, during the performance of Divine Service. The enraged animal attempted to cross the Witham, but failed: and after remaining in the water more than twenty minutes, he was again dragged to the place of torture: here the victim exhibited a shocking spectacle, being extremely lacerated, and at four o'clock he fell down at the stake, and instantly expired ! - Such are the obligations of humanity to Mr.Windham!
The Physicians and Surgeons of Liverpool have published a very animated and gratifying Address in the Newspapers, on the beneficial consequence of the cow-pock inoculation. They say it has undergone during the last four years a most rigorous investigation, and the concurring testimony of the most enlightened practitioners both in the united kingdoms of Great Britain and Ireland, and on the continent of Europe and North America, has completely established the fact, that the true vaccine disease effectually secures the human constitution from a future hazard of receiving the small-pox, and that upwards of 200,000 individuals have been inoculated for the cow-pock ; they add "there can be no doubt that if the inoculation continues to be prosecuted with spirit and zeal it must at no very distant period annihilate the small-pox. The arrival of this period is devoutly to be wished, as it is computed, notwithstanding all the advantages of inoculation, that no less than 45,000 individuals are annually destroyed in the United Kingdoms by the small-pox.
On the 5th instant, during the rejoicings at Nailsworth, Gloucestershire, a person imprudently fired a pistol close to the horses of Mr.Niblett's waggon, which was passing through at the time; when they took fright, and set off with the waggon at full speed. The people in the street were very numerous, eleven were thrown down and wounded, one of whom died whilst conveying to the Infirmary, and several others dangerously hurt.
On Monday se'nnight a most melancholy circumstance happened at Preston Theatre, whilst acting the Pantomime of Peyrouse: Mr.Rimmington, in that character, having to fire at the Indian Chief, which was then performing by a Mr.Bannerman, son of Mr.Bannerman, a person of considerable property at Glasgow, the wadding unfortunately entered his thigh, and brought on a mortification, that caused his death on Thursday.

LONDON, November 19.
CONSPIRACY
IT is with much regret we have to state, that Colonel Despard, (lately released from Cold-Bath-Fields Prison) and associates, have been apprehended on a charge of conspiracy of the most atrocious and shocking description.
Colonel Despard appears to have been at the head of the Plot, the discovery of which was happily occasioned by a discharged Sergeant if the Guards, to whom the Colonel had attempted to administer a treasonable oath, giving information of the infamous design to the Chief Magistrate of Bow-Street. Sir Richard Ford, in consequence, immediately issued a warrant; and Revitt, one of the Bow-street Officers, at the head of a strong party of the London, Surry, and Kent patroles, in virtue of it, proceeded on Tuesday night, about a quarter after nine, to the Oakley-arms, in Oakley-street, Lambeth, where they found Colonel Despard, and 32 labouring men and soldiers, English, Irish, and Scotch; the whole of whom they took into custody.
On the following morning they were all taken before the Sitting Magistrates at Union-Hall, who were assisted on the occasion by Sir Richard Ford. The examination lasted nearly eight hours, the result of which was, that the Colonel was committed to the county-gaol; twelve of his low associates, six of whom were soldiers, were sent to Tothill-fields Bridewell, and twenty to the New Prison, Clerkenwell. Ten other persons, who had been found in a different room, and who appeared to have no concern in the business, were discharged.
Yesterday afternoon, at one o'clock, Colonel Despard, heavily ironed, accompanied by his wife, and one of the soldiers, was brought to Lord Pelham's Office, at Whitehall, where several Cabinet Ministers were assembled. He underwent an examination of two hours and a half, and at half past three was committed to Newgate for trial. Several more soldiers belonging to the Guards are said to have been apprehended, and committed to prison.
The charge against the Colonel is, for having administered a secret oath to divers persons, binding them to an active co-operation in the performance of certain treasonable and murderous practices, and this association is said to consist of several divisions. The leading feature of the conspiracy is of so shocking a description, that we cannot mention it without pain and horror. The life of our beloved Sovereign, it appears, was to be attempted on Tuesday next, by a division of the conspirators, while the remainder were to attack the Tower and other public places. It is difficult to imagine what the conspirators could have promised themselves from the perpetration of so atrocious a deed, from the execution of so mad and abominable a project. Folly and wickedness must have combined in the devising so foul and extraordinary a proceeding. Such at present are the circumstances known by the public.
