YeAerday the Seffions commenced at this place, before the City Officers and Lord E LLLLL (noun sr, Mr. Ju(lice Hurts, and Mr. Baron THOMPSON. William Mawr was indifted for a burglAry in the dwelling houfe of Meffirs.Taylor and Co.on the 17th of January lift, and ftealing therein a great quantity of Bank notes, and Bills of Exchange to a great amount. _ _ It appeared in evidence tbat the profecutor's houfe was broke open, and that the property WAS taken out of the Prong chen, &c. That on the 3d of February lan, a number of thefe notes ware given in change of two iol. bank notes, they being all one pound notes ; and that they were all indorfed with names which had been altered, but there was no evidence that the prifoner altered any of there indorfements. It appeared alfo that the Pi ironer keeps a grocer's Ihop, and is in a confiderable way of trade in Whitechapel, and that he had been at Come expence in advertifing a perfon of the name of Lawrence, who has difappeued fence this burglary has been committed. In the courfe of tracing the Mae of there notes out of the Bank, a Clerk appeared who had taken ex traits nut of the Bank Books, to prove the particulars of their being iffued • but it was objected by the Piifoner's Counfel, ;hat this extra& was nut evi• dence, for that the Bank Books ought to be pp duced ; but Mr. Yußice HIATN held. that if the witnefs him• fell had made this extra& and coal (wear to the truth of it. it was evidence in this cafe s—the 'lank floc,ks were books which are kept for the general ufe and (mice of ihe public : and it had been held. over and over again. they need not be produced in a cafe of this kind. • The Learned Judge then Wetted to the Jury, that this Burglar had been committed on the t7th of January lath ann the time was material in this cafe. There was 'no evidence gamin& the Prifoner,' further than that there Notes were found in his houfe on the :ft of February: They were then traced into his polreftion, and they were marked by the Candling Clerk of the Profeeutor, and the names indorfed upon them had been altered ; but there was no evidence whatever that the Prifoner was the per fon who altered thera--•-They were found in his par fawn, it was true, but that was not rufkient.— Now, if property be loft, and prefently afterwards is found in the pofrellion of another under cireumftanees of fidpicion, and that perfon gave no account of them, the inference of Law was, that he wu the thief. But here a fortnight had elaefed fince the theft was committed, and there was no improbability that he took them in the way of his trade, fo there was no inference in Law that he was the thief ; and therefore it would he the duty of the Jury, as well as their inclination, to acquit the Prifoner. The Jury Waged a while, on account, as they faid, that the prifoner had no evidence. Mr. Jun ice HEATH nhferved, that there was no improlmbility the prifoner took thefe one pound notes in the way of his trade : Nobody took notice of there notes. There was no probability that the prifoner Role thefe finee he kept a lhop of conflderable tiacle.—Not Guilty. ll'ilont Cu! alias Mart was capitally indined for ITAtilting, nn the highway.

The Prifoner then went down Love-lane, which is a narrow long lane, with an elbow, or projeilion of trees, and banking about the middle. that prevented a fight to the bottom of it ; behind this elbow the prifoner concealed him (elf, and Witnefs, having no forpicion of being rob bed, walked down the lane untd he came to the el bow, when the Prifoner fuddenly reified upon him. drew a large carving knife, prefented the point of it to Witnef.'s break and demanded his moiety t Wit nefs, under great terror, immediately gave Lis lea ther bag: containing five (billings and fispesce, and the Prifoner then (aid, you have got a watch, 'mot have that, which being given to him, he Paid, now Tow mull go that way, turning the Wittier' in a dif ferent direelirm from the way he meant to efcape : Winters obeyed, and after walking Come diftance, lookediwk, faw the Parma- was gone, and imme diately returned towards the (pot where be had been robbed; on approaching which, he obferred a per fon named Read walking in the geld, and inflantly cried out, 1 4 l have been robbed ;" pointing with his (lick at the fame time the way be fuppofed the Pri.

At the bottom of the paling the prifoner flopped, and withers, op arriving et the faw the watch and leather bag lying on the ground, which were identified the next morning by the profecutor. The prifonerr, on being taken. was confined in the cage at aapton, and carried the ! w r its day before the Magiftrate at Worfliip Aran, The prtfectitor (wore to the property, which was produced in Court, and the Jury found the prifoner,, who ruede no defence—Gssiky. na4—Recommen4- ed to mercy by tilt profecutor. Edward ralier. and Au, his wife, were ind Med for Healing, in the dwelling houfe of Thomas Hot delvers, two al. bank notes, a pair of (beets, and other articles, his Kemeny., It appeared from the eiridence of the profecutor. who is a publican, that about Chriftmas laft the prifoners wok an apartment in his houfe, and were his lodgers, when be loft his pro perty. On the :hilt of February he placed eighteen il. notes in a drawer in his bed room, indorfed with the names tithe perfons Irons whom they were taken. On the a4th following they were fare at five o'clock in the afternoon, and the next wonting the drawer was difcovered to have been broke open, and ten of tip notes miffing. Some fufpicion having attached to the woman prifoner, a March wart** was procur ed, her apartment exeniiited, sod two notes, which the profecutor knew to be his, were found in a tea pot. On further fearch, two other tunes were found at a pawnbroker's in Drury-lane, given by Ann Tay lor to redeem a pledge. The other things mentioned in the indidtment were alto traced to a houfe in Heo rietts-ftreet, Covent Garden, where they bad been left by the fame prifoner, and the robbery was clearly proved againft the wife; bat nothing having appear ed to implicate the hufband, he was strand, and the Jury found Ant Edwards Guilty—Death.
