Saturday 24 Apr 1819 (p. 2, col. 5) Christopher GALE and John TOWNSEND, capitally convicted at the late gaol delivery here, are to suffer the awful sentence of the law this afternoon, near the gaol, at the head of English Street. We are happy to observe by an advertisement in our paper this week, that a new edition of Mr. Robert ANDERSON's Cumberland Ballads, with great additions, is about to be published for the author's benefit. We feel assured that the public will be anxious to patronise a man whose genius has conferred so imperishable an honour upon Cumberland; particularly when it is known that the "chances of life" have rendered the Bard as much in want as he is worthy of general support.-Our fourth page contains an original ballad in the Cumberland dialect, from Mr. ANDERSON's pen: it will be seen that his genius is as vivid as ever. Among the indictments preferred at the Quarter Sessions held this week, was one by the Churchwardens of the parish of Dalston, against two young men, and their seconds, for fighting on the evening of Easter Sunday in the neighbourhood of that village. If Churchwardens every where performed the duties incumbent upon them, and availed themselves of the powers with which they are invested, there would no doubt be a considerable diminution of the offences which are now committed on the Lord's day. Last week, Mr. COURTENAY, the barrister had his arm broken by the upsetting of the Glasgow mail, upon Aberford bridge, Yorkshire. The Burton choir of singers, lately under the tuition of John BIRKET, of Penrith, sung in St. Andrew's Church, Penrith, last Sunday, during divine service, both morning and evening. Their performance reflects the highest honour on themselves, as well as the greatest credit to their teacher-as their singing is entirely free from that drawling method too frequently used in country choirs, in a great measure owing to want of proper expression. The choruses were sung with spirit, and the piano and forte parts with equal taste and judgment. The typhus fever still prevails in Whitehaven. The new House of Recovery, in the Ginns, was opened for the reception of patients on Monday morning. CROWN-OFFICE, April 17.-Borough of Appleby.-Adolphus John DALRYMPLE, of Portland-place, in the county of Middlesex, Esq. in the room of George FLUDYER, Esq. who has accepted the Chiltern Hundreds. William WEST, otherwise PARKER, has been committed to Appleby gaol, for robbing a hawker named William FAULDS, of a considerable quantity of goods. The small-pox are now prevalent in Kendal and neighbourhood, and in several instances have proved fatal. During the time of divine service at Appleby, on Wednesday se'nnight, previous to the commencement of the assizes, a hen entered the church, deposited an egg in one of the seats, and then announced the circumstance to the audience by loud and continued cackling!-Kendal paper. In the course of the last week, eight vessels sailed from Workington, for North America; and eleven from Maryport. Some with passengers. Four persons were last week committed to Castletown jail, Isle of Man, charged by the verdict of the coroner's jury with the wilful murder of a young man of the name of M'DINE, on the 5th inst. at a fair holden at Jurby. Two others, concerned in the affray, have escaped for the present. The present lambing season is generally allowed to be wonderfully productive.
