Lucar, and Lucy . Rblph. 'were indiet:A for a riot and affault at Sadler's.Wells, on the night of the ifth:Oltobet lag. The three fiat appeared to take their trial. and pleaded Not Guilty—but the fourth bad abfconded Mr. CON sr, in opening the cfae on thspart of the prufecutiun, regretted the neceffity he feltut calling the attention of the Court and Jury to one of the moR melancholy cafes that ever appeared in a Court of Juftice, namely, the dreadful catafrophe that took place during the performance at Sadler's Wells, on the night of the ig hof 05tober. Although he was convinced that the defendants at the bar had no idea of being the inflruments of fo melancholy an event. it became, however, the duty, as well as the incli nation of the managers of that Theatre, to Aft the matter to the bottom, and make public examples of thofe who were the carafe of fo (hocking an accident. Upon the night in quellion, the three perfons at the bar, with another woman, who had deported herfelf very badly, and had fence ablconded, had feated themfelves in the pit, and were extremely riotont during the whole of the evening. They began by annoying and abufing a young gentleman. whore forbearance was very great, but at lag the Pellet Officers were obliged to interfere, and they alto were abufed in their turn, when there was a*general cry of " Turn him out !" The Officers then endea %lured to take him into cultody, and in the Rrogile to efzape, there was a cry of " a fight ! a fight which was immediately con Itr ued into a crypt "fire," and was reiterated through every part of the houfes in confequence of which the alarm became fo great, that in the ftruggle to get out, the fatal catafirophe took place, which he thought it then unneceffary to comment upon. One of the fic a objeCts in fuels a me tropolis as this, was, that places of public amufetnent fhould be preferved, free from riot and diforder, and he hoped the refult of the prefent profecution would be an example to others in Fiume, not to purfue a like improper and perhaps mifchievous tonduCt. Mr. George Shuter depofed, that he was in the back part of the pit, upon the night in quettion, and about eight o'clock obferved the three defendants quarrelling among themfelves, but this he afterwards thought was " thaw." They were feveral times int)• ken to by the people about them, to delft, but they continu-d this diforderly behaviour until ten o'clock, when the Conftables interfered and remr•nftrated with them ; they, however, bid the Conftables defiance, and derided them. They then fent for fome brandy, which teemed to increafe their inclination for quar relling, and fmn afterwards they became fo ria tons and diforderly, that the Conßables were obliged to call affitiance, to take the-n out. When in cuflody they made light of their offence ; and upon being told of the fatal effects of their conduCt, one of them ( Vincent Pierce) exclaimed, they could not hang them at all events. There faas, with others, not neceffary to detail, having been already before the public, were fully corroho'ateci by John Hughes, a boy, who attended the Theatre with fi gilt, and two conßablet. Mr. Charles Dibdin, the proprietor oftheneatre, was alto examined, to (hew that every thing had h:en done by the Managers and Condudors of the Theatre, to prevent the dreadful catafirophe. Upon his crofs examination, he admitted, that wine was fold at a cheap rate at the Theatre, during the per formance, but denied that any complaint had been made to him refpefling the officers of the houfe vend. ing fpirir nous liquors to the audience, as in that event he (liquid have immediately difmiffed them—but he laid he had been told fuch pra4lices were fometimes carried on. Mr. Ks Ar P. for the; defendants, admitted the great impot lance of teeming the perfons of the public, from filch accidents as that un.ler confideration, and agreed m the fame fentiment with Mr. Conti, that the Jury fh old si:lcharge from their minds every premature prejudice, and look at the cafe before them as if nos loch event had ever taken place. The quefiion which they had to try was, according to the words of the indiernent, whether thefe defendants had affembled together in a difot deity manner, with intent to breed a riot, to ditto' b the public peace, and to injure and affault his Majelly's liege fobjeds. In order to condi tute a riot, it lb , uld appear that three or more perfnns had been concerned in it—bot in this cafe, although the evidence went to thew that the three defendants had been very turbulent and diforderly. yet it did not appear that the cry of " fire," which was the real caufe or the did urbanee, did proceed from them, nor did any cry take place until after they were in 'Windy ; the previous intention. therefore. of com mitting a riot did not exill : and in his opinion, altho' thefe parties had cunducred themfelves very impro perly, he did not conceive that they ought to be found Guilty under this indiamenr, The Chairman in his charge to the Jury Rated that to constitute a riot at law, three or more perfons mull be concerned in loch intnoltooos condor% The Proprietors of the Theatre were certainly entitled to very great credit for bringing forward the prefent profecution, and Int their exertions at the time of the unfoltnnate event that happened at the time Rated in the indittment. But the Jury mull put that event entirely out of their coaftderation in deciding upon the prefent cafe. The Jury confulted together fora few minutes, and then pronounced all the Defenlants—Guilty. Sentence was not pronounced. jobs Briggs, an attorney, was indifted for affanit ing Mr John Macdonald, a furgeon and apothecary, in Great Maty la bonne tireet. The Defendant went to the houfe of the profectunr to tender Si. as payment in full of 171. 7;. 3d. b:ing the amount of the latter's bill for certain medicines, againft a Mifs Murray, and upon the Donnr's refs flag to accept it a% fuch, the defendant grofsly abu fed him, which irritated the lloaor fo much, that he retired tor his horlewl.ip to chatlife the Lawyer. In the mean time, the Lawyer feized the Dator's pro feffional cane, and (baking it over his head is i me nacing pofture, threatened to knock him &path; and this aft of the Lawyer conflituted the affault com plained of. The defendant was found Guilty, and the Court fentenced to pay a fine of fu Ailing: and nila !Me. OLD BAILEY; DEC. 4. Mary Creels was indided for fteaVig in the dr:M ing bottle of Mr. Mayßon a bill, of exchange for 421. 15s. and all, five tl. bank notes, forme *old and flyer in a Intel pnrfe, the properiy of the faid Mr. Morton. f• Mrs. Ma Bon, the profecutyt's wife, raid that the hook wait ah fi re en the 23d ofoEtober lan, on which occafion tlfe'plifoner came there: She was firft dif covered oa the firft floor. Mrs. May Ron had left a hollan4 Ode, containing a bill of exchange for pl. tr. and five tl. bank of England notes. The bill was drawn payable to.the order of " Sufannah Comb,". two months after date, and "accepted J. D . Kean," indorfed "M. C. Lavender." There was alfdin the purfe half a guinea in gold, and Come fil. ver. As loon as the fire was pat out, the witnef. went up fairs to look for the purfe, but found it was &Olga ;—lbe had not feen any body in the room ; Med a queftion of the fervent, in the pretence of Ids ptifoner, who had the purfe ? The let vent laid fit had not feen any thing of it. The prifoner laid OA Wit the only ftranger in the houfe who had been up flails, and faid (he would give the witnefs her addrefs, which eluded all fufpicinn ; and the was let go without any difficulty, although the was not known before. Mr. Mayften the profecutor laid, that when the pallier was taken into cullcdy cn this charge, which was on the 4th of November lati, he went to the police office in Marlborough Ilreet, where he law the plifonar..--. 4 I afked her," laid he, " what the bad done with the bill of exchange ?—(He had not told her any thing to induce her to confefs—defiring her only to (peak the truth)—What the had done with the bill of exchange of 421 ? She told me the had given it to Mr. Dawfon of Walworth, but where he lived the would not tell me, although I i(ked his perfonal addrefs. I then afked her how the came to think of (leafing the purfe at a time when the family were in fuch diftrefs ? I afked her what that purfe contained ? She faid, nothing mote than a bill of exchange. I then afked her where the had got that purfe—in what part of the houfe ? She faid the found it down flairs, and did not deny haw. ing been in the houfe at all. She then faid, the picked the purfe up. and heard it jingle. I then laid, it was very unlikely that the purfe (hould jingle, if there was nothing but a bill of exchange in it. She then confefTed, that the had paid two of the IL notes to her landlady, after " the had ftolen them.—Thefe I were her words. I afked her what the had done with the refl ? She laid, the had got drunk and loft the reft." Jofeph Brown, of Norfolk fireet, Middlefex Hofpi- tel, had known the prifoner for years—fhe was mar ried to a thoemaker. " On the 24th of Odlober, in the morning, the prifoner, in company with another woman, were in my fhop. The woman with the pri foner pledged a ring. The prifoner had got a piece of paper in her band, which the was (hewing to a caftomer in the !hop. I Aced to look at it ; (he gave it me : faid, the fuppofed it was worth nothing. I told her it was worth nothing to her ; I aiked her haw the came by it ? She told me the found it.— Looking at it, I found it was a bill of exchange, and faid that the bad better take it to the acceptor, and then the would find the owners and perhaps get fomething for her trouble. I then gave it her back again. This was on a Saturday. On the Monday following raw it advertifed ; I immediately went , down to the hoafe of the profecutor with the ring I had taken in pledge, for I thought that the ring had been Qolen, as well as the bill of exchange. On the Wednefday following, the 4th of November, the prifoner came again to the (hop; I told her I mull detain her until I fent for the Gentleman to whom the bill of exchange belonged. I afked her what fhe had done with the bill of exchange ? She faid the had given it to Mr. Dawfon on the Friday follow. ing. In confequence of information which I after- wards received, I went to the room where the Kilo- Der lodged. I taw Mr. Dawfon—a man who an fwered the name of Dawfon ; I told him that I wan ted a bill of exchange he had got from the prifoner, who was then in cutlody. He took it out of his pocket, Paying, he would not give it to me ; but that he would give it to her hu(band, which he did, and then her hufband gave it to me." Mrs. Mayllyn looked at the bill of exchange, and proved it to be the one flue had loft at the time of the fire, and that the was Pure it was not nut of the purfe when the left it on the table. The prifoner had a very good charafter. Mr. plaice GROIN told the Jury, that this was a capital offence. Stealing in the dwelling hook to the value of forty fhillings, and by an Aa of Parlia mem. a bill of exchange, was the fame as any other property. The pawnbroker deferved praife for his condo& in this cafe. The Jury found the prifoner Guilty—Death aged 26. Recommended her to mercy. Mr. Mice Gauss —" The King'6 commands are, that the grounds of recommendation to mercy fhould be Bated. The Jury faid, On account of her very good character." Mr. bailee - Otosag 4 Mr. Shorthand writer, be fo good as to take notice of that." Lawrence Flanagan was indifled for feloninufly healing, on the 23d of November, feven Turkey oil Runts, value twenty flings and upwards; the property of James Tr imby, .1)11n Bell, and Benjamin Howard. The prifoner's defence was little more than a po• fitive denial of the charge ; but the Jury relying on the teftimuny of the principal wituefs, found him— Guilty. [This prifoner was tried laft evening for the fame offence ; but in confequenee of a Saw in the indidtment —the name of the third partner in the profecatora' firm being Rated Howell, inftead of " Howard," the Jury, under the direcßion of the Learned Recor der, found a verdict of acquittal. The profecutora, however, thought proper to prefer a fecood indietment (which, as the Grand Jury were not then ddiniffed, they lad Rigidly a right to do), and upon which he was convideel, as above ] Jofeph Iflamr, one of the defcendants of the Ifrael itilh Emigrants, was convidted of flealing a leather pocket book (an oldinary pickpocket affair), from Henry Welk', a foreign mariner, his property. The prifones,'it appealed, having by means of a falfe affidavit endeavoured to put off his trial (the profecutor being oeeeffitated to leave England in the courfe of a few days), the Rscoaaaa feverely raprimaaded him for Inch criminal cunduel, which he affured !aim &mild lead w an aggravation of bis put:Amen. jam Witt, an elderly man, and of ge even rof dignified appearance, together with Samuel IVarntr, were put to the bar, and afked by (1 e Deputy Clerk of the Arraigns ' whether they were not now defirous of pleading "Guilty" to an indift ment for a confpiracy, preferred againft them, to which they had before pleaded " Not Guilty r' which they both anfwered in the affirmative. They were then held to their appearance in Court when called upon, on their own perfonal recognizances for tool. Bland, a tailor, was indiCted for healing pri vately out of the chop of John Robinfln, a piece• broker, two remnants of cloth, value 21. Elizabeth Robinfon depofed, that the prifoner came into the drop of her father, on the i of November, and bought four yards of black kerfey met e, which the was to hive damped ; he looked at two remnants of cloth that were in the window ; not being able to tell him the price, the replaced them in the window ; he went away, and returned about twelve o'clock, with a bundle of cloth, compared the cloth with the kerfeymere, and fo•rnd they matched well. Two perfons came into the Sop ; the went to the other counter to ferve them, and left the prifoner folding up the kerfeymere, which he had paid her for. When he had done folding the kerfey• mere, he wifl►ed her good morning, and went away. She watched the other two petfons clofely ; one of them bought a fmall quantity of cloth ; of the other the Witnefs bought two dozen of buttons; was con• fident they had not gone near the counter where the remnants of cloth were. Witnefs faw them both nut, and [hut the Chop-door after them. Some time after, her father came home, and a gentleman came in, and alked for one of the remnants. On her la ther looking for it, it could not be found ; the in formed her father of Mr. Bland, the prifoner, being at the (hop, and her fufpicions. John Robinfon depofed, that he had known the prifoner fume time, and from the defcription his daughter gave of the perfon (he bad fulpeded of (leafing the remnants, he was furpriled to find it was the prtfoner. On the Wedoefday following the pri foner came into his (hop, and on his mentioning his fufpicions, prifoner declared, as he was an honelt man, that it was not him, and would give Witnefs every fatisfaelion. Prifoner then gave him his ad drefs, viz al Mr. Hoare, Attorney, No. 5, Inner Temple." A fortnight afterwards Witnefs met pri foner, Aced him to go before a Magifirate, and [wear he did not take the remnants. He immedi diately went, and on raking the Officers, at Bow llreet, to tender the oath, they refuted, and took the prifoner into cullody. The Court alked the prifoner what defence he had to make ? Prifoner Paid he was innocent of the crime alledg sd againd thim, and that he •had feveral witneffes whom he wifhed to be examined. Abraham Hoare, Attorney, depofed, that he had chambers in the Inner Temple, and that the prifoner had a room from him, for the purpofe of being con venient to fume of his cutionters. He had the belt opinion of him ; and had entrufted him to receive packages that might come in his abfence. Fourteen Gentlemen, of refpeaability, gave the prifoner an excellent changer ; none of whom had known him leis than ten years, and the greater part of them so years. The Jury returned their Ver&l—Not Guilty. George Edger, aged ;6, was capitally indicted for Pealing in the dwelling houfe of a Mr. William Clarke, with whom he lived as an apprentice, a quantity of watch diamonds, to a confide:able value, his property : and the above prifoner's brother, W. Edger, aged 21, ilia out of his time with the prole• tutor, was indided for Teething the fame, knowing them to be note°. Mr. Clarke Rated, that he was a dealer in watch diamonds, :and the two prifoners were his appren tices. In confequence of his milling a great number of diamonds, at various times, he was at length in clined to fufpeet the prifoners. He fent for a conitable, and charged the prifoners feparately with robbing him. The eldeß of the brothers denied having any knowledge whatever of the property. The youngeft, upon being allured that it would be better for him to tell all he knew About it, immediately confeffed that he had Rolen fome, and upon him was then found 26 diamonds, fome rubies, and feveial pawnbrokers' duplicates of a confiderable number more. Two pawnbrokers' fervants produced feveral (mall parcels r.f diamonds, pawned-by both the prifoners fcrerAlly, and at different times. Barr;ri GRAHAM, who tried the prifoners, upon this told the Puy, that however unfortunate it was that fuch young men as the prifoners humid efcape junice, yet, owing to the inexperience of the perfon who drew up this indiament, they had confounded the crime, 12/ charging one of the p r if o n ers w i t h healing, and - the other receiving, knowing to be Nolen ; whereas it appeared in evidence, that they were both prifoners, which miftake mull render the indi.tment ineffalual, and the Jury mug be compels led to acquit the prifoners. The prifoners were accordingly acquitted. The Learned Judge very juilly reprimanded the pawnbrokers with great feverity upon their blame able conduft, in receiving fuch valuable property from the prifoners, whom they might very well know could not come by the diamonds honeilly. He had but too much reafdln to lament, that owing to fuch perfons as thefe pawnbrokers, youth were tempted by the facility they found in railing money, by pawning their mailers' property in their hands, that it tended very unhappily so encourage that pronenefs to vice, which might be detated frequently, did thefe per fons a& as honell and upright men ought to do in fuch cafes. He difmiffed them for the prefent with a fevere admonition, and willing that they would a& for the future as became ufeful memers of fociciy. The cafes immediately before the Court being dif pofed of, the neat prifoner on the orders being called for. Mr. Newman, keeper of Newgate, came forward and acquainted the Court " there were no more pri loners down, as the Sheriffs had direited that no more than fire prifoners fh:)tild be brought down at a time ;" and the cafes of thole who had been down were difpofed of. The itscoaciaa inquired of Mr. Newman which of the Sheriffs bad given inch dirations to which Mr. Navistar replied—" Both the Sheriffs loge. cher." Mr. Recommit then (at eight o'clock) adjourned the Court to the ofual how to-morrow. 7
