WESTMINSTER SESSIONS, OCT. 17. William Mize,: was indicted for stealing two bl inketss two sheets, and at least a dozen articles of furniture, tl e property of Elizabeth Holly day, on the 2Sd September. The prosecuttix deposed that she lived in Print es weer and let a furnished room to the prisoner, who resided some time in her house with his wife and daughter. Prosecutrix having missed her property, went to Queen-square to get advice how to recover it, and an officer accompanied her home and took the pri soner into custody. The prisoner's daughter afterwards brought the duplicates of some of the articles to prose. cutriz, but no promise of favour was made to her. The prisoner's daughter also admitted that she had sold some of the articles to different persons for a small sum. An officer of Queen-square deposed that he took t;:e prisoner intl.) custody. Witness accompanied the pro- Secutriz to a shop, where the latter identified a tea-board as her property, which had been sold for a shilling. The witness, it appeared, took the prisoner without having had a warrant, entirely upon his own responsi bility,without the Magistrate's consent, and was strongly censured by Mr. COMM for having done so. Mr. Corer made some observations to the Jury upon the singularity of the case, as there appeared a strong probability that the robbery had been committed by the prisoner's wife and daughter, without his knowledge. Though it was considered that a wife acted under the influence of her husband s yet perhaps in this case the converse of that proposition did not hold. The Jury Acquitted the prisoner. Mary Ayling was charged with stealing a pair of shoes, the property of John Howell, on the 4th of Sept. last. The shoes were stolen from a house in Westminster, and were found in the prisoner's possession. The Jury found her and she was sentenced to a month's imprisonment in the House of Correction. M l SD EM AMOUR.S Benjamin Binelon was indicted for attempting to steal a handterchief, the property of John Wright. A witness deposed that he was walking up Drury lane, in company with Mr. Wright, a few evenings ago, when the latter suddenly turned round upon the pr i. loner, who was attempting to pick his pocket. The Jury found the prisoner Guilty, and he was sen tenced to six weeks imprisonment in the House of Correction. Joseph Smith, a boy about 16, was charged with stealing a handkerchief, the property of John Rogers, on the 10th instant. The prosecutor had purchased four handkerchiefs at an auction room in King -street, Covent Garden, on the rlay in question, and put one of them in his pocket, which he soon afterwards missed, and the prisoner having bren pointed out as the thief, he had him taken into custody. A witness deposed to having seen the handkerchief in the prisoner's band..after be had taken it from the prosecutor ' s pocket. A very re-pectable looking young woman gave the prisoner an excellent character. His master also strongly recommended bim. The Jury found the prisoner Not Guilty. SURREY SESSIONS. KINGSTON, OcT. 17. William Sandford, a resi.eciable looking lad, aged 14 years, was put to the bar, charged with having, on the 11th of October, stolen an ivory brx and counters, with the alphabet on them, value lea. the property . of 'James Kingman, an ivory turner residing at Lambeth. The prosecutor, who turns articles in ivory, and sells them at different fairs in the country, stated that he had a booth at Leatherhead Fair on the day in question, and had the box exposed for sale, with other articles; he did not miss it until it was brought to him by an officer on the following day. He knew this box, because' • it was the only one of Ow kind he had at the time; he admiuesi that be bad made several of the kind for . shop keepers. James Razzell, a boy of about twelve years of age, stated that he met the prisoner at the fair, and • bought the box from him tor a pot of ale; they drank the ale • .together; he afterwards gave the box to Hill the con stable. He denied having been applied to by the psi boner's father or mother for the box. . Two boys, named Cottington and Edwards, corrobo rated the statement of this witness as to the purchase of the box ; they all four partook of ibe ale; the prisoner said be had bought the box from a mass who went round the fair with a basket. The constable deposed that he had received she box from the boy Razzell. Sandford, the prisoner's father, stated, that in consequence of something he had heard, he went to the house of the witness Razzell's father, and inquired if the boy had got a boz, or any other article of the kind ? he denied. that he had any suAi thing; his mother pro duced his clothes, and said his pockets contained only a few halfpence. The boy Razzell afterwards west to the constable, and gave up the box. The Jury acquitted she prisoner. The same prisoner was again put to the bar, charged with haring, on the same day, stolen at Leatherhead, . four tortoiseshell boxes. an ivory tablet, a pea box, a smelling bottle, and a purse, the whole valued at 355. the Property of John Frazer, a watchmaker residing at Peckham. It appeared from the evidence, that the pri soner was seized in the art of taking the greater part of the articles; the rem.ining articles were found upon a boy named Bolting, who gave them to the constable (a witness in the last case), who, in giving his evidence en t is occasion, deflated that he knew nothing about . them. • The prisoner, in his defence, said he had got intoxi cated at the fair, and that the other boys had stood between him and the owners of the booths while he took the aiticle.. The Jury found the prisoner Guilty. and the Court sentenced him to six months' hard labour in the House Of CM section, and to be twice privately whipped. hams F inceut, alias William Edwards, was put to the ba►, charged with having, on the 9ih of Octuber, stolen from the dwelling house of John Blackman, a labourer at Croydon, a writing desk, value 123. his • property. Mary Blackman, the wife of the prosecutor, stated, that en the day in question the desk was on a table in the lower room; sha had occasion to go up stairs, but hearing a noise at she door she came down again, and inure .iately missed the desk; she ran out, and saw a =an running up a field with a sack upon his back ; she gave an alarm and pursued the prisoner, accompanied by a neighbour named Lane; they found the sack in some bushes, and close by lay the prisoner concealed under a bank ; in the sack she found the writing desk. Mr. Tusistinn (who conducted the prosecution)— Mrs. Blackman, is that desk your husband's property ? Mrs. Blackman (a fascinating • _male of forty, and with on eye)—Why, Sir, I bought that desk for the We of him and me. Mr. Tuatimaas....Well, you know, that makes it hit property. You seem unwilling to admit shit your hus band is tie master. Mrs. Blackman—Why, I slots% like un' to be quite master, neither—(A laugh). Why, Madam, the law very uncourteously says and unfortunately, I am afraid. you insist abide by it. Another witness proved having seen the prisoner run ning away with a sack on his back. The prisoner said he was intoxicated, and had gone to sleep in a field, when hearing some one run by him. he looked up, and was immediately taken ii.to custody. The record of a tiriner conviction for larceny was put in and read. Verdict, Guilty. The ptisener was sentenced to be transported for life. WARWICK SESSIONS, Ocr. 16. ---~-- William Parr Pope, the younger. was indicted for; having falsely pretended to Mr. Davis, of Atherstone, that he was the agent of Mr. F. C. Westley, of ti e Strand. London, and that he had called upon the said Mr. Davis for the amount of an account due t the said Mr. Westley, by means of which he obtained from Mr. Davis a SI. note. There were several counts in the indictment, varying the same charge. The prisoner, on being arraigned, pleaded .\ ot Guilty. The evidence was then gone into, which clearly provcJ the offence charged against the prisoner. Mr. REYNOLDS (Counsel for the prisoner) urged twu objections against the form of the indictment, but they were overruled by the Court. He then in an ingenious speech attempted to work upon the feelings of the Jury, but called ire witnesses, and did nut throw any discredit npon the testimony of the witnesses for the prosecution, who swore most positively to the person of the prisoner. Guilts—sentenced to twelve mouths' imprisonment. ' There was a second indictment against the prisoner for a similar offence, but it was not gone into, in hope, that the punishment awarded to him on the first may have the effect of reforming him. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. MANSION-HOUSE. Yesterday the Justice Room was crowded long before business commenced, it being generally known that Joseph Huston, against whom there are six several charges of forgery, would undergo a final examination. He was brought from the Giltspur Street Compeer, in a coach, by Forrester, the officer who apprehended him, end he appeared to be quite disconsolate. Since he has been in the Compeer, he has been extremely dejected. Indeed, there bas nut been any one in that place of confinement for many years who seemed to give himself so much up to despair. Ile has scarcely spoken a wend since the day of his apprehension, and, upon being conducted from the Marshal's Office to the place of examination, he hung his head upon his breast. He was in tears the whole morn ing, and, irons his advanced years, lies worn and haggard look, and the desperate condition of his circumstances, was an object of great pity. During the investigrion. he never raised his hr.id nor ut tered a word. His Solicitor, Mr. Coles, was in attendance, and took notes of the evidence. Mr. Gates, the Solicitor, attended fur the prosecution. A great munber of Merchants and Bankers were present. There have been discovered already, in the house of Sir %V. Curtis and Cu. forgeries, attributed to him, to the an: ount of nearly 6,0001. and we understand, from unquestionable authoEity, that that firm has been offered the amount of all the forgeries, if they would consent to forego the prosecution. That they are deter mined to prosecute appears from the proceedings of yesterday. It is stated in the most positive terms that the Bankers forming the Committee are resolved to procet4 in every case of forgery or fraud against any members of their body. The cases upon which the prisoner was examined yesterday were as follow : Mr. Gates produced a bill purporting to be the acceptance of Henry Minmeain, of Bury St. Edmund's, Suffolk, and to be drawn by the house of Dekson and Co. in which the prisoner was a partner. The bill was dated the 24th of July, 1626, and was for 16N. 9s. pa) able in three months. _ _ Mr. Jo hn Dickson stated. that he and the prisoner were ware housemen in Ironmonger-lane. Hr examined the bill, and deposed that he believed it to be in the hand-writing of the prisoner ; but be sad not know the writing of the acceptance. The house had bad no correspondent named Henry 51ountala. nor was there any entry of the bill in question in their books. Mr. William Curtis deposed, that the house of Dickson and Co. kept a cash account at his and his partner's house. On the Ist of August, the prisoner brought the abovementioned bill, with others, to him, for the purpose of getting them discounted. After having looked them over, he put them into a box, lur the purpose of being entered. Mr. Thomas Brackett, a clerk at Curtis's, deposed that be took the bills from the box, and entered the particu:ars of each in a book, called the Discount-book ; and amongst the bills was that purporting•to be the acceptance of Henry Mountain, for 1624 9s. Mr. Alexander Chenie deposed, that he entered the above mentioned bill in the Biii•book, and narked it D. 598, as it now appeared to be marked. Mr. Henry Mountain, of Bury &. Edmond's, Norfolk, deposed that be believed there was nu other Henry Mountain at Bury Sr. Edniond's. He had no dealings with the house of Dickson and Co. nor had he any knowledge ot the bill or of the acceptance. The parties were then bound over in penalties to prosecute. The secund case against the prisoner was a charge of having forged the acceptance of John Miller, of Bury &. Edmond's, tor the sum of 50f. dated the llth of August, 1928, payable in foul months. Mr. Dickson (the prisoner's partner) pve an account of this bill similar to that which he bad given of the last. He believed it to have been drawn by the prisoner, but no entry of u had been made in the book of the house. Mr. Curtis stated that the prisoner brought the bill to him, with others, on the 16th of August, Ma, for discount. The witness thin descilred the process through which the bill went previously to being discounted. Mr. Al:Iler, ut Bury St. Edmond's, said that he had had no dealings with Dickson and Co. and that be knew nothing Of the bill, or acceptance. Mr. Charles Day, a clerk in the house of Dickson and Co. de posed, that be was acquainted with the handwriting of the prisoner. Mr. Gates--Look at that bill, and say whether the acceptance is not in his handwriting? Mr. Day looked at the bill, as if be had sonic doubt of the writing. The LOU, 51.sysia—Can you say whether that is the prisoner's writing, or not ? Mr. Day—lt resembles the prisoner's writing. Mr..Gates—Do you believe it to be his writing? Mr. Day (hesitating)—lt is like his writing, and yet it is not as he generally writes. Mr. Gatee.—ls it his writing, to the bait of your belief? Mr. Day made no answer. The Lou Alamos—What Is your belief upon the matter? Do you, or do you not, believe it to be his writing? Mr. Day (in a voice scarcely audible)—l believe it is his. The parties were bound over to prosecute in this case also. The third case was a charge of having forged the acceptance of Joseph Warren fur 401. lOs. The same form was gone through with respect to this acceptance. Mr. Kuban% oldie house of Curtis and Co. discounted the bill, which was brought to him by the prisoner on the Ist of Sept.lB2B. The parties were bound over a third time to prosecute, and the prisoner was fully committed fur trial. GUILDHALL. Dersys, carousal to Mr. Unsworth, was summoned be. fore Sir Psaca Lauma, for refusing to re.meaaure a sack of coals at the request of Mrs. Dunham, the naother-folaw of Mr. Prince , the Crown Tavern, Clifford's lon Passage, before he d e liv e r e d t h e whole quantity of the coals its the waggon. The summons was granted at the Mltance of Mr. Rickman, one of the principal coal meters of Surrey, who was in attendance to support the case, sad Mr. Gibbard, solicitor, appeared for the de fendant. The fact of refusal was proved, although It was admitted that after some time an old bushel measure was produked ; but that !measure Mr. Rickman contended, was not such a one as was requir e d by the Act of Poliansent, and be seised the same. Mr. Unsworth was also summoned foe sending ant wills his waggon an imperfect bushel measure. The measure was produced, and Air. Rickman contended that the measure was not cylindrical; that, in fact, one way it only measured 19 inches, whereas it ought to measure l9i niches every way across; and u for trying its ca• pacify with water, that was impossible, there being several holes therein, an dam those grounds it was not a perfect measure. A person Trom the Sealer's Office, Guildhall, attended with his guage, and stated tha it was a proper measure Wit was round ; and tins guager also omitted to measure the depth of the Sir PERU LAURIE said, that he should act upon RR opinion that be had then taken of 51r. Napier, au eminent Loal merchant who was in the Justice-room, who was decidedly of opinion that the measure was an imperfect one, and convict in both cases in the penalty of $l. Thus was no Imputation whatever, that there was any fraud intended on the pan of Mr. Unsworth, only that the measure was old. lie gave notice that he Should ppe.l spinst the conviction. Sir Nitta I.svatc 'Ad, he WAS OA of it ; for the more publicity that era. given to these VOA Cases the better. In the maw of the investigation, Mr. Rickman said that he was Ueterniined to detect, it I.4,thie, all the timid, that were practised with regard to that pat ocular trade. M I.BOROUG I f-STR EET. Tue GENERAL 31011141111/411.—Yestersiay she wAchhousc honks of St. Anee's presented nothing to the Sliting Nlagistrate, Sir G. FAR R►NT, but charges against tailors for being drunk and disorderly. The beadle who attended to prefer the charges deposed, that the prisoners were all tailors, who bad met un the previous night at various public houses in the parish, upon sonic business connected with the trade, hut upon coming I n to the street they behaved most disorderly. Sir G. FAaaAtr—What were you all doing? Tallor— We met on purpose to have a strike. Sir-G. FAXILANTFeir What purpose arc you going to strike ? Tailor—because the Quern of Wirtemberg is dead, and we met to make the strike general. Sir G. F —The death of the Queen had nothing to do with your striking Tili;ol—lt has; for it Is a standing rule with our trade, that whenever any of the Royal Family is dead, and a general mourn ing ordered, to have double wages; amt, besides, there were five hundred at the house to whirls I belong. and that made us so late before we broke up. Sir G. F T—h is a pity you get any employment if you strike upon such a case. Taihrt . ..-.lt was done by the desire of the masters, to enable them to come to a decision whether they shou'ol charlie extra for the orments. Sir G. FaltlSAWT—Could the y not decide :Aiout your meeting ? Tailor—So, Sir; for it see did not thlllati.l double wages they could nut charge extra. Sir G. FAIIIIANT--.YOU will pay 51. for !ping drunk ; and also to enter Into bail for your appearance here, to give evidence against the landlotil for keeping open at late hours. The test of the worthy tribe also pleaded the cause of the general mourning and to strike for extra wages as the reason for their bring out so late. The ..me deci•ion was p.osed on them all, which appeared to annoy the fraternity very much. A young man, dressed in the first style of fashion, was brought before the liagartrate on the fallowing ettraordinary charge— On Thursday furenuuu the prisoner went Into the house of Mr! V.•Gowr.iti, the Goat, in PAU-mall, and having called for a bottle of Wine, ordered a rump steak to be cooked for his dinner, of' which he partook and drank the wine, having first strongly pressed the lanolord to take a glass. About tour o'cicck be left the house, having paid his reek g, And returned at seven in the At/elf in. He then called fur a gl..ss of brandy and water, and at his request the landlord took sane of it with him. After they had CAI together some tame the pri.onet loodueell x fifty•pound note, and requested the landlord to clietige it our him. The landlord, however, said lie had not sufficient e.esis in the house. The prisoner then called, lOr another bottle 01 wine, which he paid fur with a sovereign, and quitted the house, saying he was going to Egg's, the gun•maker. and would return in a few minutes. In about five minutes be feint tied, and on entering the parlour, be drew front beneath his cloak a brace sot pistols, oloich he threw on the table, and then seated tumoral by the tire, end appeared absorbed in me ditation. tiudden:y he excleimed, " for GOD'S sake, give me change f o r (i l k 504 note ; I am going to Ireland os.tnerrow morning, and it will he of ro use to me there." The lindlurd then told hint that he suspected all was not right, and (ruin the extraordinary anxiety he nianitested to get rid of the rit.,e, he was inclired to believe that it was ft rgel The prisoner it ttttt eifiatt ly seized 'inc of the pistuis, cocked it, Ind presenting it at the Liodlord, " you villain, if you ear to e..tic out such an isi.inu..tion, I will blow out your brains this moment.' The landlord nostetstly seized bold of the prisoner, and wrested the pistol from hint. The poisoner made the most 'orient exertions in regain hi, lib: fly, and contrived to put the UM. note into his mouth, and endeavuuted to swallow it, nut he was prevented, and be then tore it in several pieces, but they were afterwards collected together. Six•youx sovereigns, two halt save reigns, and some salver were found on hint, and a cannister filled with bullets and gunpowder. The prisoner itf his defence said, It was ridiculous to say that he attempted to shoot the man. He Wras intoxicated, and might have committed some excesses, but hr declared he bad no intention to murder the landlord. He was on the point of departing for Ire land, and be bought the pistols to protect Iris person and property whilst travelling. Mr. CONANT asked him where he obtained the money ? The prisoner replied that be had been clerk to --, solicitors, of Lincoln's Inn, and cleated their service a few days ago, receiv ing from them live years arrears of salary, and amongst other cash which they gave hint was a 1001. note, which he changed on Thurs day morning at the Bank of England, and received the SW. and o:lier cash. . Mr. CONANT said he considered hi, account very unsatisfactory, and should remand him for souther examination. Just before the close of the office Mr. Conyers, of the Poultry, came before the Magistrate and said, that on Thursday the prisoner purchased clothes at his shop to the amount a 91. 7s. and gave di. reclaims tor other clothes to be made, and he said his name was Wm. Marshall, Esq. and that he resided at a house in High-itreet, illoornsloury, and was going to America in a few days. lie at the same time requested change fur a 504 note, and at the time he had likewise a 4111. in his hand. Mr. Conyers was requested to attend when the prisoner was again examined. MARY-LA-BON NR. Wm.

Tuesday six officers being di-patched to the fight at Croydon, had orders to bring the names of the principal persons engaged in it. In consequence of their information, a wan rant was obtained against Savage and Sweeney, the principals; Ilolt and Redmond, the seconds; and O'Neil, Oliver, ant: Read; but owing to the ap prehension felt at the interference of the Civil Authorities, the re.t of the party kept out of the way, and 1 Jolt and Redmond were the two who coold be got at. They accordingly were brought up yesterday to put in bail for tiotously assembling at Croydon. Mr. CHAMBIRS expressed himself very much pleated at their conduct towards the officers, and had no doubt but their punishment would be slight. However, it was his duty to comply with the orders of the Bench of Magistrates, who were determined to put down all meetings of this kind, whether the parties were Noblemen, Gentlemen, or regular tinier.. Ile then asked, were they prepared with bail to appear at the Ses.ions on Monday nest? The defendants replied in the negative. Halt, the chlA constable. this morning said be would be answera ble himself for their appearance. and had no doubt if the rest knew the warrant was against them, that they would have attended. The twit defendants promised to do all they could to procure the attendance of the rest, and were then allowed to go on their own recognizancrs till Monday, when they will be bound over, and sent down ininirdiately to the Sessions. I. A )1 BET 11-STR EET. Nearly as the business of the afternoon had yesterday terminated at this Office, a lady-like looking female, of about .1S years of age. and dressed in a style ut fashionable elegance, entered the Justice room in a state of high excitement, and was approaching the Bench, and about stating the nature of her visit to M.
