LINCOLNSHIRX. 
Mr. Ra^ph Dodd, engineer, has addressed 
an interesting letter to the representatives in 
parliament, the mayor, corporation, and Ha- 
■ven company, of Great Grimsby, relative 
to the improvement of that port and harbour, 
which he conceives may be made the best 
asylum on the north-east coast of the king¬ 
dom, between the mouth of the Thames and 
the Frith of Forth, and capable of containing 
from 4 to 500 vessels. 
Sir Wm. Manners had thirty-five actions 
for trespass against the Duke of Rutland, and 
the gentlemen of the Belvoir Hunt. The 
actions so properly brought against fox-hun¬ 
ters and other sporting trespassers, is likely to 
curb the insolence of those gentry, and w’ill, 
we hope, put a stop to practices inconsistent 
with the present improved state of the coun- 
At the Lincoln assizes, Daniel Ccok, aged 
only 19, for sheep-stealing ; John Ridsdel, 
for a like offence ; and John Baxter and 
Charles Baxter, for roboing the mail between 
Wragby and Market Raisin, were capitally 
convicted, and received sentence of death, 
blit were afterwards reprieved.—On the Nisi 
Frias side an action was tried, Robinson v. 
the Duke of Rutland, for a trespass, alledged 
to be committed in the defendant’s hunting 
over the lands of the plaintiff', Tbe ‘verdict 
‘was fir the plaintiff, damages Ir.^—in five 
Other actio'iS also of the same nature, in 
■which Sir VVm. Manners, hart, and his ten¬ 
ants were the plaintiffs, <verdicts ‘were chtahied, 
and the damages in each were assessed in the 
Sheriff’s Court.—A most remarkable instance 
of that fatal forgetfulntss, which frequently 
leads CO the detection or crimes, was afforded 
on the trial of the Faxters, tor robbing the 
mail. The principal clerk of Messrs. Elli¬ 
son’s banking-house deposed, that C. Ba-xter 
came to him with a 1001. bill, which he 
wished discounted. The witness, suspecting 
that all was not right, hinted that perhaps it 
was taken out of the Wragby mail, which had 
been robbed j \vl\en the man, with great 
simplicity, replied, Why, how is that 
possible ? There -were no bills in that mailN 
He was, in consequence, apprehended.

ter of Mr. Hugh G. of Stamford.

Died.^ Aged 77, James Digby, esq. of 
Bourn. The penurious manner in which he 
lived, ill accorded with the immense property 
he has left, which is supposed to be little short 
of 200,0001.

The following faithful eulogy on the late 
Charles Littlehales, A.Al. the-worthy rector 
of Burton, in this county, is copied from the

of May departed this life, the Rev. Charles 
Littlehales, A. AI. at the Glebe-house of his 
parish j at that house where the unfortunate 
ever found relief. There w'as a mildness in 
the nature of this most interesting young 
man.
