Highway Robbery under aggravated circumstances.-- Yesterday the following account of an outrageous robbery was given by a woman named Sarah Ailley, to the Magistrates of the Union Hall Police-office.. The woman stated that she recently resided at Southampton, in the service of one Rock, and having her parents living in London she wished to join them. and set out by way of Brighton, where she had some relations living whom she was desirous of seeing, before she took up her abode in town. On Sunday morning, between 11 and 12 o'clock, as she was pursuing her journey on foot, being alone and carrying a bundle which contained all her clothes, she observed two sailors lying in a ditch by the road side between Reigate and Croydon. She was about passing them, when one of the men called out, "it is a pity that you should have come from the fair;" but being a stranger she knew not what fair he alluded to, and being desirous of avoiding them, she passed on. The man who had first spoken then said, "D--n your eyes, this bundle belongs to us," pointing to that which she carried, and he having jumped up, seized it. She was consequently greatly alarmed at this outrageous conduct, and screamed out for assistance, but no person was near, and the wretches both declared it should be worse for her if she made a noise. They then demanded her money, and insisted upon her stripping; she implored them not to take away her clothes which she wore, nor treat her person ill, and she would give them all her money, which amounted to 7 sovereigns, half-a-crown, and a shilling. She gave them the money, but the ruffians insisted upon having her clothes, and they actually took off her clothes, leaving her in a state of nudity. One of them held a knife to her throat, threatening to murder her if she made a noise; whilst the other stripped her. She was a long time thus exposed. At length one proposed to go away; saying that he heard something coming, and they both jumped over the hedge by the road-side; in a few moments they threw some of her clothes to her, saying that she deserved to be murdered for taking so much notice of them; and they then ran away over the fields. She dressed herself in the clothes thus furnished her, and walked along the road until she met a woman, to whom she communicated the way in which she had been treated. The poor woman kindly took her to her cottage, which was not far distant, and having rested a short time, she took leave of the benevolent cottager, and came to town, which she reached that evening, but was unable to discover the residence of her parents, who lived in the neighbourhood of Smithfield. She was greatly distressed, and acquainted a woman, whom she met, of the extraordinary circumstances above narrated, and was advised to acquaint the Magistrates of Union Hall with them, which she accordingly did. She was examined minutely as to the facts of the robbery, and her story, although singular, was considered perfectly consistent. An officer was afterwards dispatched to Croydon, having received a full description of the two sailors, one of whom is represented to be a middle-aged man, and the other more advanced in life - in the expectation of being able to trace and apprehend the offenders

On Thursday an inquest was held on the body of Henry Tanton, who had died in consequence of being pushed down the steps at the end of Walcot Parade, Bath, by his wife on the Sunday evening preceding. The Jury returned a verdict of Manslaughter; and she was committed to Shepton Mallet gaol for trial : this weak minded old man (who was in his 95th year!) was married on the 22d of April to this wife, who is 57 : he had then been a widower only six weeks. In less than three weeks after the recent marriage he attempted to destroy himself by cutting his throat. The squabbles and contentions between him and his wife were incessant.
WEYMOUTH, May 28.- On Thursday the Wyke Regis Friendly Society celebrated their 4th anniversary.
Among the latest arrivals are Major-Gen. R.Grant, Rev.Mr. and Misses Morris, Rev. Dr. and Mrs. Hope, Mr. Temple, Miss Jones and family, &c. &c.
Winchester,
Saturday, May 28.
The High Sheriff of this county has, at his own expence, made considerable alterations and improvements in the Nisi Prius Court at the County Hall, by which the gentlemen of the law will enjoy free access to their counsel.
It is understood that the Rev.Mr. Cockburn, Fellow of St.John's College, Cambridge, brother to the Dean of York, is to fill the vacant Prebendal Stall in Our Cathedral, occasioned by the elevation of the Rev.Dr.Hook to the Deanery of Worcester.
The repairs and improvements in our Cathedral are, we are happy to hear, nearly completed. The organ has been lately erected upon the old scite, and West's beautiful altar piece replaced. It is expected that divine service will be resumed in the choir on or about Trinity Sunday.
On Monday the several Benefit Societies of this city and suburbs attended divine service at the parish Churches, preceded by bands of music and banners, after which they dined at the respective inns where the societies are held, and mirth and jollity were the order of the day.
BIRTH.- On the 18th inst. At Warblington House, the lady of Wm. Padwick, jun. Esq. of a daughter.
On Tuesday the 21th instant died, greatly respected, at the advanced age of 84 years, Mr. Isaac Gold, of Fordingbridge.
A few days since died at Amphill, Bedfordshire, aged 83 years, the Rev. William Ralfe, Rector of Mouldon, father of James Ralfe, Esq. of this city.
On Monday last died the infant child of Mr. Le Croix, confectioner, College-street.
Yesterday morning died at Wickham, aged 75 years, Mr, Thomas Callaway, many years a reputable schoolmaster at that place.
On Tuesday night last the house of Mrs.Armstrong, in St.Peter-street, in this city, was broken open, and several articles of provision stolen; and also two hampers, contents not known, the property of a friend, deposited there for safety.
On Friday last a person employed at Mr.Sharp's paper mills, Romsey, left his house about four o'clock in the morning, to go, as was supposed, to his usual work; but not returning at his customary hour to breakfast, a serious alarm was created, and a general and diligent search was immediately commenced; when in less than an hour a person was found dead, hanging on a beam or rafter by a spotted silk and white neck handkerchiefs, in a cow house belonging to Henry Holmes, Esq, about half a mile from the Market-place. This was not, however, the individual on whose account so much anxiety had been excited, and which was continued till past 11 o'clock at night, when he returned to his family, who had been distracted and on the verge of utmost despair.
The above unhappy man, found hanging, was an entire stranger at Romsey; 5 feet 7 inches high, about 40 years of age, and of respectable appearance: had on a good black coat and waistcoat, a flannel waistcoat buttoned on the shoulders, a double truss, white lamb's wool stockings, and thin shoes. The letters of his linen had been picked out, and also the maker's name of his hat, in which was his crape hatband; in his pockets were found only a penny-piece, a comb, and a small piece of bread and cheese. He was seen on Monday at the Duke's Head public-house, where he stated his extreme distress, said he had come from Southampton, and was travelling to Whitchurch. There is just reason to conclude he committed the direful act on that day, and it is very probable he might have remained undiscovered till hay-harvest, but for the accidental manner in which he was found. An inquest has been held at the Star Inn, Romsey, before Anthony Todd, Esq. coroner, and a verdict returned accordingly.
On Tuesday an inquest was taken by Mr. Todd at the parish of St.Peter Cheesehill, on the body of Charles Lee, whose death was occasioned by a blow on the temple by a skittle ball, which bounded from the ground with violence, as the deceased was looking on at the game about a month since. It appeared that no blame could attach to the person who threw the ball, nor indeed to anyone else. Verdict "Accidental Death."
Committed to the County Gaol : John Phillimore, charged with stealing 3 sacks, the property of Thomas Compton, of Amport.- Wm.Grinham, for stealing 8 fowls, the property of Edward May, of Crookham.

On Wednesday last the members of the Princess Charlotte Female Benefit Society held their annual meeting at the Town Hall, from whence they proceeded to All Saints Church, where they heard an excellent sermon appropriate to the occasion. They afterwards returned to the town-hall. Among the many ladies who subscribe to and support this excellent institution, are Lady Sarah Crespigny, Lady Thomas, Mrs.G. Atherley, Mrs.Berkeley, Mrs. Wm. Lintott, sen., &c. The number of members is 116. The report of the fund stated it to amount to �302. after paying for the sick, and 36 births.
The numerous nightly thefts committed in this town call for a strict� vigilance on the part of our police, nothing but which, with the infliction of exemplary punishment, will check the growing evil. There have been depredations every night for this week past: at Miss Wade's school, the premises were entered and several of the boarders lost their money, &c. At Mr.Bird's in the same neighbourhood, the thieves stole some plate; at Mr. Jackson's in the New Road, wine, plate, and provisions, were stolen; and Lieut.

Salisbury,
Monday, May 30, 1825.
The Wilts regiment of Militia is to assemble at Marlborough on the 12th of July, for 28 days training.
There is to be run for, at the ensuing Burderop Race's, a Silver Cup, the gift of Fulwar Craven, Esq. added to a Sweepstakes of 2gs. each, for horses not thorough-bred, the property of freeholders of the county of Wilts, or the members of the White Horse Troop of Yeomanry Cavalry. Mr.Goodman's Robin Adair is matched against Mr.Haines's Miller of Coleshill, four heats, 12th. each, for 100 sovereigns.
PUGILISM,- On Monday last a long and hard contested battle was fought on Langford down by Jas.Lacock, gamekeeper to H.Biggs, Esq. of Stockton, and James Goodfellow, a carter, of Codford. Arrangements for the fight had been for some time previously made, and a numerous concourse of persons was attracted to see it. A roped ring being formed, the men stripped; Lacock was seconded by a man named Fletcher, and Goodfellow had for his second the celebrated Bill Neat, of Bristol. The combatants were in excellent health; Goodfellow weighed about 11 1/2 stone, and Lacock was about 1 stone heavier, and evidently the stronger man of he two. The fight, which consisted of 61 rounds, lasted rather more than an hour, terminating in favour of Goodfellow, who completely blinded his adversary. It would be needless to describe the rounds, as it was throughout a manly give and take fight, in which but little science was shewn by either party. Lacock fought principally at his adversary's body, while the latter directed almost all his blows at Lacock's head, and gained the battle by that system of fighting, as he eventually closed up both of Lacock's eyes. Had Goodfellow not accomplished this object. Lacock's superior strength and weight must have gained him the victory. Two braver men never fought. The battle was for 20 sovereigns.
On Thursday last the 7th anniversary meeting of the Wesleyan Methodist Branch Missionary Society for the Salisbury Circuit, was held in the chapel, Church-street. Two appropriate and impressive sermons were delivered prior to the general meeting, by the Rev. J. Collier and the Rev. J. Hawtrey, from Portsmouth. The meeting was numerously and respectably attended, and a deep feeling of commiseration was excited by the affecting details delivered from the platform, relative to the unhappy and morally degraded condition of the heathen world. Two relics of heathen superstition, and a robe of a Budist priest, were exhibited in the course of the evening. Collections after the sermons and at the meeting, amounting to �33.were made in aid of the funds of the Parent Institution.
The various benefit clubs in this city assembled as usual on Whit Monday, and after attending divine service in an orderly and praiseworthy manner, they severally retired to their customary places of meeting, dined together, and passed the afternoon in harmony and innocent festivity. It should be mentioned, to the great credit of these numerous. societies, that we never hear of their meetings upon this occasion being disgraced by quarrels; on the contrary, that which should be their primary object, brotherly love and good fellowship, is invariably evinced among them.
On Wednesday last, being the annual meeting day of the Whiteparish Union Society, the members met and attended divine service, after which they partook of an excellent dinner at the King's Head Inn, served up in good style by Roles. A band, consisting entirely of members of the society, performed many pieces of music in a superior manner, and the day was spent in great harmony.
The anniversary of Whitsuntide was celebrated on Monday at Longstreet, by the friendly society, consisting of upwards of 200 members, who, after visiting the respectable neighbourhood, accompanied by a band of music, went in procession to the Parish church, where an appropriate sermon was preached by the Rev. J. Pyke, from the 2d Epistle to the Corinthians, part of 11th verse, "Be of one mind, live in peace; and the God of love and peace shall be with you." After the service, a most excellent dinner was served up by Mr. Davis, of the Swan Inn. The utmost unanimity prevailed, and the company separated highly delighted with the harmony and entertainments of the day.
The shameful practice of shooting at and killing swallows, martins, and swifts, has been observed in some places by boys, whose parents should prevent it, as these birds do much good.
The woman lately taken into custody at Lymington, for obtaining money under a false pretence that a son of her's was dead, was at Blandford lately with the same story, and swindled two or three persons of their money.

We are requested to correct a statement which appeared in our last, relative to the performance of Skipper the pedestrian. On reference to Paterson's Book of Roads, it appears that Skipper walked 53 1/2 miles per day for 30 successive days, instead of 50 miles as stated, and that during the 30 days he walked 1605 miles, viz.
|
|
| From Southampton to Romsey | 8 miles |
| From Romsey to Whiteparish | 7 3/4 miles |
| Whiteparish to Whaddon | 3 5/8 miles |
| Whaddon to Salisbury | 4 3/8 miles |
| Salisbury to Wilton | 3 miles |
| From Southampton to Wilton | 26.75 |
| Total No. of miles each day | 53.5 |
Our correspondent requests this statement to be inserted in justice to Skipper, who by his civility and perseverance gained the good will of all classes of persons during his performance.
The Duke of Somerset against the Inhabitants of the Hundred of Mere.- This action, which was brought by the plaintiff against the hundred of Mere, and tried at the last Summer Salisbury Assizes, for the loss sustained by two fires in the months of June and September previous, alleged to have been committed by an unknown incendiary on a farm the property of' the plaintiff; situate at Maiden Bradley, held by Messrs. Large, under a lease which will not expire before 1828, which was proved at the trial, and also proved that the Duke had distrained the corn, ricks, &c. for rent, which had been bought in by the tenants; and also distrained the growing crops, and through his bailiff and other servants harvested them, and a verdict was given for the plaintiff for �400. being �200. upon each fire, the amount of damages limited by an Act called the Black Act, subject to the opinion of the Court above upon severed points suggested by defendants' counsel, and particularly upon the point, whether the property was, under the circumstances, in the possession of the Duke, so as to entitle him to recover, came on for hearing in the Court of King's Bench on Saturday the 21st instant, when, after most elaborate arguments used by the Counsel employed by the respective parties, the Court, without touching on several of the points reserved, and many nice and subtle points raised by the arguments of Counsel, and being of opinion that the Duke had not complied with the terms of the statute, directed the verdict to be set aside, and a nonsuit to be entered, to the great satisfaction of the tenantry of the several parishes within the hundred, who must have been the principal sufferers had the verdict remained in the plaintiffs favour. Attornies for the plaintiff, Messrs. Moore, Lake, and Co. London; attorney for the defendants, Mr.Seymour, Mere.

Panorama, Assembly Rooms.- This very interesting exhibition, we understand, finally closes on Saturday the 4th of June, and we believe we may say with perfect truth, that there has seldom been a Panorama so calculated to attract and delight an audience; in fact, we consider it a production of such uncommon perfection, as a panoramic representation, as must excite, not only the enthusiasm and astonishment of the amateur, but likewise the approval of the experienced artist. "There is no pleasure," says a great author, " superior to that of conversing with, or contemplating the features of any individual whose merits or actions have gained them the voice of public fame; - but when circumstances render this impossible, the greatest enjoyment we can have, is in seeing a faithful representation of the person thus notorious." No name in the list of extraordinary characters stands more conspicuous than that of Napoleon Buouaparte, whose deeds and actions have confirmed him at once the wonder and terror of the world.
