Saturday 03 Apr 1819 (p. 3, col. 4) Monument to BURNS.—Mr. GRIERSON, of Dumfries, has received a letter from Messrs. MARTIN, DUPORT, and Co. of Demerary, containing a bill for £150, being the amount of subscriptions in Demerary towards the erection of the mausoleum and monument over the remains of BURNS. We are happy at the same time to mention that the marble sculpture, by TURNERELLI is arrived at Dumfries by the Sally and Anne from London, and on Thursday week was safely lodged in the session-house of St. Michael's Church, till a proper person is sent down to erect it in the mausoleum. It is packed in six large cases. Saturday last, a little girl, the daughter of a respectable tradesman in Dumfries, unseen by her parents, put her mouth to a kettle then on the fire, and unfortunately swallowed some of the warm water. The child, notwithstanding every medical assistance, after suffering in great agony, expired next day. A few days ago a native of Sanquhar put an end to his existence, by plunging into the river Nith. The deceased's affairs had long been in a very embarrassed state, and having, like too many, endeavoured to banish his cares by a practice that always augments them, it is supposed he had committed the rash act while under the influence of liquor. On Friday week, several persons, anxious to discover his body, searched the river with a drag near to the fatal spot, when, to their astonishment, they brought up the corpse of a beggar woman, whose fate, but for this circumstance, might have remained altogether unknown. After a farther search of nearly two hours, the body of the individual first mentioned was found, a considerable way below where his hat and watch seal had been picked up, and where, of course, it is supposed he had entered the river.
