Saturday 08 May 1819 (p. 3, col. 1 and 4-5) Dr. HUGH JAMES.—The Monument to the memory of this lamented and estimable physician (a token of public regard), is now erected in Carlisle Cathedral, in a situation which shews it to advantage. It consists of a tablet of white marble, of the sarcophagus form, resting upon two corbals, on each of which the serpent, emblematical of immortality, is sculptured: on a space between, are the family arms, surrounded by rich foliage and flowers, in high relief; and on each side of the tablet, figures of Æsculapius and Hygeia, in alto-relievo, are beautifully sculptured, in reclining positions. The whole is surmounted by a pediment of black marble, before which stands an urn, enfolded with drapery, on a pedestal hung wish laurel. It is executed by REGNARD of London, and is highly creditable to the talents of the artist, who has displayed a happy taste and great ingenuity in the design and completion of this well-earned memorial of departed worth.— THE INSCRIPTION. This grateful Memorial is erected by Public Subscription to HUGH JAMES, Esq. M. D. who practised Physic with eminent skill for many years in this City. Providence largely recompensed the loss of sight in early life with talents which raised him to distinguished reputation in his profession and more abundantly blest him with a disposition ever prompt to succour poverty and pain. The study of his art, which shewed him the weakness and uncertainty of life, taught him to meditate deeply on the works of God and animated his faith in a merciful Redeemer. He died the 20th of September, 1817, in the 45th year of his age. His remains were interred in the Parish Church of Arthuret in this County. We are happy to learn that Messrs. SLATER & Co., of Manchester, have taken the New Mill in this City, which has been so long shut up, and that they intend to commence spinning immediately. This will be of considerable benefit to Carlisle and its neighbourhood, as it will afford employment to many much in want of it, and will probably considerably lessen the poor-rate. A Sheriff's Court was held at the Town-Hall, on Thursday, at which Mr. DOBINSON presided. Considerable business was transacted, but nothing which requires publication. The beautiful bullock and heifer, twins, bred and fed by Mr. Edmund WALLAS, of Blennerhasset, near Brayton Hall, and which attracted so much attention at our late Cattle Show, were killed on Thursday last in this City, by Mr. John MATTHEWS, and excited the admiration of all who saw them. Their joint produce of tallow was 20 stone of 16 lbs. The bullock weighed 19 stone per quarter, and the heifer 17 stone. On Sunday forenoon, as a boy named BELL was coming on shore, at Whitehaven, from the William, Capt. HAYTON, to which ship he belonged, in crossing the Ann's deck, a dog made an attempt to bite him, when the boy, in his haste to get clear of the dog, had the misfortune to fall between two vessels, and the tide being out, he was very much hurt. Last week, Mr. S. MORTON, of Longburgh, was drowned in one the creeks on Burgh Marsh, into which he accidentally fell as he was on his way home from Sandsfield. A quantity of lead was last week torn off from the roof of Arthuret church and carried away by some depredators who remain undiscovered, though a reward of ten guineas has been offered for such information as shall bring them to punishment. In April, last year, we mentioned the very extraordinary circumstance of a green parrot, belonging to a gentleman at Corkickle, in this county, having deposited two eggs. The same bird, which has been nine years in the cage, has produced three more eggs! Last week, a woman went into the shop of a draper in Workington, to buy goods, when she became suddenly ill, and in a state of insensibility forced a pound note into her mouth and swallowed it. Since our last, another Irishman has been apprehended near Dumfries for attempting to commit a rape, on the body of a woman whom he met travelling about half-way on the road to Lochmaben. The female in question having made a most determined resistance, and another person having luckily come to her assistance, the villain was forced to desist, though not until he had literally torn the clothes from the back of the unfortunate person whom he thus sought to make the victim of his ****llowed desires.
