By Mr John Drew, on Lockwood's Folly, and committed to the gaol of this county on the 8th inst, a young negro fellow about 5 feet 8 inches high; has a shot lodged in his body just above his left hip; but as he does not speak English, no further discovery can be ascertained, than that his name is Glasgow.
