The lovely Sukey, object of my wish, Surpasses all who trace the streets with fish; , None cm with such an air the price reveal, Displace an oyster or undress an eel; Like salmon dainty, and no sole more sweet; No lily muscles with her skin compute; I ler lips like prawns; red mullet is a foil To cheeks that shame the lobster fresh from boil; Sound as a roach ; the whiting of her trade, And never thornback marcli'd my beauteous maid; Nor trout nor smelt so delicate can provtl : The loveliest white-bait for the feast of love! • DICK. Through London streets her trade my Lucy plies. Irriels a barrow, and" Choice fruit!" she cries; That barrow's shafts how oft I've wishtd to be, Clasp'd by those hands, and press's], dear maid! by thee The ruddy apple by her cheek looks pale; To march her lips ripe red-heart cherries fail; Those lips, for richneri,melting peaches shame; And, td her kisses, figs no sweetness claim. When sloes she sells, but "fine ripe damson's" cries, The sloes are brown, compared with her black eyes; " Cherries!" she cries, when those to sell are best, " Fine bleeding hearts!" and mine among the rest ; And when she cries 'em, how each accent swells! Her voice is primer than the fruit she sells ! TOM. When, in the season, Sukey " Oysters." cries, 'Tis like the mermaid's voice from seas that rise; From seas that rise, and those who listen dish, And those on fish who fed make food for fish : Her various voice abounds in sharp and fiats— Oh ! could you hear her when she's crying " Sprats!" DICK. One day were nuts In Lucy's barrow laid, And I stood by, soft-gazing on the maid; A nut she crack'd—her teeth such jobs can do, Since they ne'er ache, for Lucy she loves true- 1 A nut she crack'd—her teeth can crack 'em well— A double kernel nestled in the shell; One half she ate, then, sweetly tender, she Kiss'd t'uther half, ant smiling, gave it me ! TOM. One day, amen Sukey op'ning Oysters stood, Her blue eyes briglit'uing with a mirthful mood, She open'd one, and, 'tis my bliss to t , ll, She ate the oyster and gave me the shell : To share twin kernels, custom maids will move, But none play tricks save with the lad they love ! LAW REPORT. COURT OF CHANCERY, JANUARY IS. OMAN V. TINDALL. Mr. SUDDEN stated that this was a petition before his Honour the Vice-Chancellor, which raised the ques tion whether an answer could be filed, maw pro turic, and the question involved so much difficulty and Importance that his Honour had commissioned the Learned Coon sit to take the liberty of applying to his Lordship for permission to have it argued here; and therefore Mr. Sugden had now to make such an application. Mr. HART appeared on the other side. He considered that no case could come before the Court involving a question of greater importance, with respect to the practice of the Court; and it was extremely important to all parties, that his Lordship should not only hear it, but that he would have the goodness to appoint an early day for that purpose. For his own part, he did not think lie would have to occupy more than five mi nutes of his Lordship's time in discussitig it; the case was shortly this—that the Vice Chancellor had made a decree in a cause without the answer of one of the de fendants having come in (Ire would take it that this had happened by a mistake), and the simple question was, whether the defendant could now be at liberty to file his answer none pro tune? A proposition, in Mr. Hares opinion, perfectly hopeless. , The established practice deprived the Court of the power to permit it, and yet this was what Mr. Sugden contended for. His LORDSHIP desired to have the papers handed to him, and he would look at them immediately. COURT OF KING'S BENCH, JANUAItY Is. FRIEND AND ANOTHER V. OPPENHEIMER. The plaintiffs, Messrs. Friend and Boden, are exten sive sugar-refiners, and the defendant is a general mer chant; the action Was brought to recover the value of sundry parcels of sugars sent by the plaintiffs to the defendant for exportation, which were sold through the medium of a broker named Peppy ; and the question was, whether the plaintiffs gave credit to the defendant or to Peppy ?—Upon the plaintiff's case being closed, The LORD CHIEF JUSTICE was of opinion that there was not any evidence to Ex the defendant, and therefore directed a nonsuit. RICHARDS AND SONS V. TURNBULL. This was au action to recover 5001. with interest, al leged to have been bad and received for the useof the defendant, from the plaintiffs, before their bank' uptcy. It was a complicated case of bills drawn and negotiated at Gibraltar.—Verdict for the plaintiffs-5001. The Loup CHIEF JUSTICE said, no interest could be allowed ; the plaintiffs ought to be thankful they got so much. His-Lordship certified it was a fit case to be tried before a Special Jury. BARBER V. LEE. This was a Common Jury cause for work and labour done by Mr. Carrington, a bricklayer, vi hose executors were the plaintiffs. The defendant was an attorney. The defence was, that the deceased was not employed by the defendant, but by another person, whom the de fendant employed to eaecute'the repairs of various kinds which be required to he done. James Burgie, the builder, was called by the defend ant. He failed soon alter the sunk was done. His evidence-left it doubtful on whose credit the bricklayer's wo; k was done.—Verdict for the plaintiff; the suns to be settled out of Court. Among the rew,and useful projects of the day is one for a grand Ship Canal, from London to Ain't:lel hay and Portsmouth. It has been projected by Mr. CUNDT, the architect and civil engineer, who is employed making the necessat y survey for the purpose. The utility of such a Canal, and its benefit to the commercial world, must be obvious. There is in the possession of an inhabitant of Chel tenham, a-Roman coin bf the reign of Vespasian, who died A.D. 79. It is of silver, and in excellent, nay, in very uncommon preservation. On one side is the bust of the Emperor, encircled by the word 4 Vespatianus ;" and on the reverse the Eternal City" is represented by a female figure., very similar 'indeed, ai to position, to the s' Britannia" of our mo , tern English c An. The ancient helmet protects the head; in the lett band is a spear. and in the right a globe, on ss hich " the lierald Mercpry" stands, as if 44 new lighted on a heaven kissir g h:11." On either side of the figure are the words Urbs Roma." - . • • . OLD BAILEY, J.4NUARY 15. Thomas Gooderlrnm was indicted for the wilful tour• der of his wife. It appeared that . the deceiied, wlen advanced in pregnancy, was struck by the prisoner ; she shortly after miscarried, but there was no evidence to prove that such blow had been the (iccasion of her death. The prisoner was therefure Acquitted. _ _ Joseph Eldrid, aged " was also indicted for the murder of his wife. S trah, wife of J. Hollet, resides in Glasshouse•fields, Stqlney, next door to the prisoner. On Monday, the 29(11 of November, witness was called, by the pri soner, at eight o'clock in the evening, to the assistance of his wife; she was dressed, lying on the bed very ill ; witness asked her, in the.prisoner's presence, what was the matter ? She replied, "I am very ill." Witness asked her, (knowing her delicate situation) what caused her illness, and if she had been lifting anything ? She replied, " I put myself in a passion, owing to my hus band's stopping out, and when he came in at the door, I flew at him." Witness told her she ought not tp have put herself in a passion, as it was very dangerous, and then sent the prisoner for a surgeon. The deceased, after being put to bed, called the prisoner, and said to hiro, " I am growing worse, be kind to my children, as (I am going to a place from whence I shall not return." The prisoner, who was respectably attired in black, burst into tears.) The deceased repeatedly said, " GOD forgive us both, for one is as bad as the other." Cross-examined by Mr. ANDREWS.—The deceased said, " 1 and my husband have had - a few words, and I am more to blame than he is." Two Medical Gentlemen were examined respecting ti .e injury the deceased had received, but they were un :Ole to say that the blow or kick which was stated to have caused her death would have produced that fatal' consequence. The injury might also hate been pro duced by accident. Mr. Justice GAziscert said there was no positive proof of a blow or kick being given by the prisoner, and he thought the evidence too weak to support a conviction. The Jury returned a verdict of Not Guilty. Elizabeth Haydon, a married woman, aged 32 years, was capitally indicted for breaking and entering the dwelling-house of John Hazen, in the parish of St. Luke's, Old -street, and stealing therein a coat, two pair of trowsers, and a handkerchief. The handkerchief was found on the person of the prisoner, and the duplicate of part of the remainder of the property. It was proved by the Police Officer, that the prisoner was in a most pitiable condition when he took her into custody ; she had four children, who, with het self, were half famished and almost in a state of nudity ; there was no bed to lie upon, or even stool for the woman or children to sit upon. The infants were huddled round the expiring embers in a grate, and he never witnessed such a scene of human misery in his life. He discovered, upon in quiry, that the poor woman had been neglected by her husband, and that for some time herself and children had been for days without food. The Jury found her guilty of the larceny only, and strongly recommended her to mercy. The Court said the recommendation should be attended to. David Cooper, bricklayer, in the employ of Mr. Lee, a builder, at the Whittington Alms Houses, lately erected at Islington, stood capitally indicted for stealing two £lO Bank of England notes. The prosecutor left the notes in his spectacle case, in a drawer, in an apartment at one of the Alms Houses, to which the prisoner had access. It was proved that he uttered one of the notes at a wine-vault in Blackfriar's-road, and then gave his name Jones. The other note he passed in Tottenham court-road, on the ad of December, in the name of Co:. The evidence was decisive of the guilt of the accused, and he was found Guilty.—Aged 28 years. NEW COVET. Lawrence Campbell. a young man of respectable ap pearance, was indicted for stealing, on the sth of Sep tember, a landaulet, value 120 guineas, the property of John Messer.—lt appeared that the prisoner, who is son to the late General Campbell, and nephew to the Duke of Argyll, called on the 4th Sept. at the prosecutor's factory, in the neighbourhood of Cavendish-square, and said he wanted a carriage for a fortnight ; after ex amining several, he hired the one in question for two weeks certain, at £2 per week ; he informed Mr. Messer that he lived in Croydon, and that he was related as be fore stated ; he also informed Mr. M. that he formerly lodged at a Mrs. White's, in Margaret-street ; on whom Mr. M. called, and was informed by her that he had lodged there, and paid his rent. The prosecutor sub sequently inquired of the prisoner, what he intended doing with the carriage ? when he said, that he was going into Kent; that he bad seven hunched pounds a-year, and intended to treat some Ladies The following day the carriage was taken away with post horses, and not being returned at the expiration of the fortnight, Mr. Messer made inquiries after it, and at length found it at Dixonrs'Repotitory, where Si& ap-, peared to have been advanced to the prisoner upon it. A letter was also put in and read, purporting to have been wiitten by a l'str. Page, of Eltham, and addressed to the prisoner, authorising him to raise money on the carriage, which the writer described as his property. The prisoner, in his defence, admitted having en gaged the carriage for the fortnight, and if he kept it longer than that period, it was fur no design of fraud; he hired the carriage for a person named Page, who resided at Elthaaa ; when he got down there he found he seas not at home; he returned to town, met Mr. Page, who said he did not want -the carriage, and that he might raise some money on it, and gave him the letter to obtain the money with more facility. Mr. Hart, a cler k to Mr. Wright, a solicitor, said the prisoner was the sou of General Campbell, as he had rep r e , .ented himself to Mr. Messer. Mr. Wright is con cerned for the family, in a family Chancery suit, brought by the prisoner, againjt the General's second wife, who is now ay the Cape, to obtain an account of the property ; if the prisoner succeeded in the suit he would be entitled to considerable property. Witness leas known him two years and a half, and had no reason to think bad of him. He is about eighteen years of age. The Jury were upwards of two hours consulting about their verdict, and at length inquired of the Common Serjeant, if they were of opinion that the prisoner hired the carriage, and although he pledged it, he intended to return it, they were to consider him guilty ? The C03140N SERJEANT said, that the letter was not in Aire prisoner's favour, for when a person went to pleslge an article he got as much as he could open it. —The Jury were, however, to consider, whether he ob tained it with a felonious intent. The Jury found the prisoner Guilty, but he was recommended to mercy by the prosecutor, in which recommendation the Jury con- I curred.—The COMMON Susszarrr sentenced him to three months' imprisonment to haul labour. MIDDLESEX SESSIONS, JAN. 15. The following Proclamation was made in Court :- 4! Percy, Bishop of Clogher, and John Moverly, come forth and surrender yourselves to the Sheriff of the County of Middlesex, by the Octave of St. Hilaty next, or you will be outlawed." S. Tall, a v atchm an of St. Luke's, Chelsea, was found Guilty of an assault, with intent to violate Elizabeth Price, eight yea's of age, daughter of a Slerjeant in the Life Gutuds. The conduct of the miscreant was too horrible for publication. T•'le CHAIRMAN, in passing sentence, observed, that had he been indicted on the capital charge, these could be no doubt he would have paid the forfeit of his life. The judgment of the Court was, that he should be im prisoned two years, and kept solitary the first six months, and to hard labour the last 18. SURREY SESSIOAS, JA NUA R Y The Grand Jury having brought in the remainder of the bills that came before them, the Foreman addressed the Court, and said, that, according to custom, they had made application to see the prison, but were re fused. They then demanded admission, as a matter of right ; bnt that being also refused, they had come to the resolution of applying to the Court. The. CHAIRMAN said, that he was bound to tell them that they had no power to demand admission. They had no right to view the illson. The Foreman said, his brethren only wished to know whether they had the right to demand adn ision ? but as the Court had told them they had no uch power, they were quite satisfied. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. BOW-STREET. Saturday evening, a well-dressed young man, of the Jewish persuasion, named &marl Mimeo, brother to the pugilists of that name, was brought before Mr. Blissauu., charged on suspicion of committing a robbery upon the person of Mr. James Coxhead, a professor of music, in the pit avenue of Covent-garden Theatre. It appeared in evidence, that Mr. Corhead, with a Mr. Hart, and another friend, were entering with the crowd at the first opening of the doors of the Theatre, he and Mr. Hart being pressed close to each other, when the latter felt a hanepressing against his side and • moving ab out. He felt uneasy, for he thought it was the hand of a pickpocket, and mentioned his suspicion to Mr. Coxbead, who, however, satisfied him by saying that it was his hand. In two or three seconds after, Mr. Coxhead found that his pockets were turned inside out, and that he had been robbed of something more than 10s. 6d. in silver, which was all he had about him. He told Mr. Hart that he was robbed, and the latter turned sharply round and seized the hand of the prisoner, whom be had before observed pressing against thorn ' and who immediately let drop from that hand some silver and a small key. The constables attending at the Thea tre were promptly on the spot, and the prisoner was taken into cus tody. A half-crown-piece and six or seven shillings were picked up Where the prisoner stood, and a small key was found by Amsden, a constable, about half a yard from him. There was a half-crown among the silver which Mr. Coxhead lost from his pocket. The key found by Amsden was immediately declared by Mr. Coxhead to be the key of his writing-desk, which was in the same pocket with his silver. When Mr. Hart seized the prisoner. he exclaimed, " Me a thief ! I am a Gentleman, Sir, of property, and I will give you my card if you will retire from the crowd with me; I will convince you that you axe mistaken." The rrisoner, who seemed considerably affected at his situation, denied the charge of robbery, and said that he was a dealer in oranges and lemons at the Exchange, and he went on that evening, as was his custom once a week, to the Theatre, for amusement. — He had a young female with him, and at her reivest he went in with the crowd to secure her a seat, leaving her to follow. He touched no one's pocket. The prisoner was fully committed for trial. While this case was under discussion, an elderly Gentleman, a foreigner, complained that he had just been robbed of his watch, and a purse containing thirty sovereigns, in the Pit avenue of tile same Theatre. He was going in with his friend, when one man pressed against his stomach, whilst two others Entailed kiln from behind. When thus hemmed in, his hat was nearly knocked and he raised his hands to protect it. He had scarcely got into the Theatre when he found that his pockets were completely empty. In the course of the evening, another Gentleman complained of being robbed at the same place. Rukrt Collins, a simpe looking youth, was brought up on a war rant, charged by Major-General Alexander Dyce, of Abliottv Langley House, Herts, with stealing a suit of livery, a livery great coat and a hat, the property of the General. The prisoner had been footman to General Dyce, and received rew livery every.six months, when the old suit became his perquisite. He bad a new suit three months ago, and on Wednesday last left the house, with out any previous warning, taking the suit with him. The prisoner said he was sorry for what he had done, and declared that he thought the things were his perquisites, or he should not have taken t)em. His brother offered to restore them to the GeneraL Mr. lisinesnutx. ordered the prisoner to be taken out, and then put it to General Dyce whether he intended to prosecute or not? —The General replied In tLe affirmative. Mr. Minanuxx said, there could be little doubt that the prisoner had acted under a mistaken notion of right, and perhaps the warn ing and fright would he a sufficient punishment to him. General Dyce said he should prosecute, unless Mr. Minshull could punish hint summarily. Mr. Munro= said, he had no power to punish him, except by remanding hini for a few days, and that he was unwilling to do. He was always anxious to avoid sending a man to prison if he pos sibly could. It contaminated him in some degree for the rest of his life, and sometimes deprived him of the power of earning his bread honestly ever after. Perhaps the General would make up his mind by the evening (this examination took place in the morning). The General wished to have a longer time, and Tuesday next was at length agreed upon ; General Dyce observing, that he sup. posed the prisoner would be confined in the meantime. 11r. Mumma. ordered him to be conveyed to a watch-house ; and having previously directed the livery bat to be taken from him, be now said, that, perhaps, the General would allow him to wear it through the streets, as he had no other here. Gen. Dyce—Yes ; but understand, I don't make him a present of it.—The prisoner was then taken away. TOWN-BALL A Barns ix rife Sonar.—Saturday a branch of Nobility, and half-pay Captain of Fusileers, " a marvellous proper man," whose name, for the honour of the 'droll, we conceal, was brought, as et semis, before the Magistrate, with his left eye in -mourning, at the proper suit of his maltresse Owlet, residing somewhere within a degree of St. George's-fields, who, with a countenanze exhibiting some fine specimens of miniature rainbows, explained to the effect that the nian of war had taken ttp his quarters with her during the last six months, and was far from offensive till lately, wheu lie came home late, laid siege to her respectable lodgers, who's garri sons she attempted to relizve, but was beat back upon her reinforce-, menu, who, suddenly advancing, forced the besitter from his trenches, and made him prisoner—in the action she was precipi tated from the battlements, afisu down two flights of stairs. The prisoner met the charge, and admitted, with the frankness of a soldier, that in these "piping times of peace." he had " nu de light to pass away his hours," but in the service of Bacchus and the Ladies—it *As Christmas time beside, and being high in blood, upon receiving a volley of candlesticks, in the attempt to raise tbi siege, be had directed a cross-fire upon his adversary. An aid-de-camp of the prosecutrix spoke to her discomfiture, and the worth of the garrison. The Magistrate inquired to what corps the garrison belonged ? and was answered, part to a German body of foot, on foreign ser vice, the other to a division of the forlorn hope---but they were a " nice" detachment. Judgment was about to be given, when the prosecutrix begged the prisoner might be allowed to match out with the honours of war, on paying the expenses of the campaign, when Reeve', the Marshal:nen, was deputed to see the indemnity paid, and the parties placed in state ea elite Odium. WORSIII P-STREET. W. lee, of Fleet-street, Spitalfieltls, weaver, was charged with throwing oil of vitriol over the garments of W. Bennett and Mary Blenkins, who were apprentices to him, but whose indentures were discharged at this Office on Wednesday last, in consequence of his improper conduct ; when the Magistrate gave him his option of paying for the damage done, or finding bail for the Session; when he chose the fora ser and was dissharged.
