A fer- vant maid, and child were in the houfe. The fe-va/'.t maid on bearing tlie rep«)it of guns lefc it, and concealed betfelf be1 ind a conti- pious wood-pile. She heard the robbers enter the premifej. They obferved, " that th&m mutt be a woman in the houie to take c;ire of the child ;" they fearched, htA when they came to the child, propofed murdering it ; b'it another faid—u No, there is a»iTJccaflotl for tha , it cannot tell of us."—Not finding the girl, they took off what they e#u'd carry and in their hafte (hut in the bull dog. The girl kept In her hiding place until a butcher came to the farm in the morning j he called out feveral times for admiifion ; at length, the girl, knowing hfa voice, came from her concealment, and related what had happened. On looking round the hoiifc* the butcher difeovered the dog. Iuftantly he went out, (hut the door, mounted a horfe, and dcfired the girl to relenfc the anirna1. On being re- leafecj the dog made for his home, the butch¬ er following clofe to his heels. He traced him to a (mail public houfc on the road, a confideu-hle dillance from the farm. The dop: entered the ho life, and immediately the butcher rode to the neareu: village, procured ■ pr-.prr afCit^n^e, and returned to the fp-)t.

For the Kingston Gazettr* \ It ha» long been a fubjeft of ferious regret# 1 inthexniiid» of judicious perfons, that thtf \ inhabitants of this Province fhould be fo ne¬ glectful as they are, \x\ feCttring their titles of real eilate. When the country was firft fettled, the grants of land from the crown* on account of the exilting (late sf the Prov¬ ince, could not be immediately ifRicd. Th<! fettlcrs, however, drew their lots* and went into potTefrion of them, receiving only tickets or certificate, as the evidences of their right to them. In the mean time, exchanges and files were made, by transfers of the poflVrT- ion with bonds for conveyances when the deeds fhould be obtained from the Crown Office. This praclice of transferring land by way of bond, being" thus introduced, was continued, by force of ufagc, after the caufe of its introduction removed. In too many inliances, it is Hill continued, although, by the death of parties, aad the confequent dc- feent of eftates to heirs under age, and other intervening privations, many difaopointments fai!ures and defeej.s of title, are already expe¬ rienced ; and the evii coniequenfts are beco¬ ming Mill mere ferious, asfends rife in value, become more fettled, and divided among af- iignees, devifees \c. In a few years, this cultom, more prevalent perhaps in this Prov¬ ince, than elfewhere, will pr.oe a fruitful fource of lrigation, unlets the practice mould be discontinued. There b another peculiar law, teCulting from our Provincial law of Regiftries. Deeds at huge are not to be re¬ gistered, but memorials of them. The sta¬ tute lequiicN a numh.r of particulars to be ftated'ia a memorial If any of thefe requi- fiies be omittedj oreiTone nifty inferted, the omiilion or error i> fafj to be fatal, according fo a late dccifion of the Court of King's Bench. A mistake in the addition of one of the witnelTer=, for bstanee has been adjudg¬ ed to render a ."nerhori.il void, '" favour of a fnbfcqurr.t con-.-evanc-'fom the fame party. Without profeifi >na!
