• The witness had the child in her arms at the time. The prisoner's mother also made an attack on the witness. Crawley then helped the witness, and a woman of the name of Anderson also came and assisted to separate them. The witness then confirmed the statement of the mother of the child, with respect to the prisorltr's throwing the kettle of water over the children. On her cross•examination she stated, that the prisoner was in a great passion, almost like a mad woman.— Crawley did not strike the prisoner; Crawley's child was lying on its face and belly on the bed ; those parts were not scalded. By Mr. ADOLPHUS—The witness saw the prisoner atter she threw the kettle of water, and she did not say any thing to the witness; she, however, appeared very calm and collected. Anne Anderson confirmed the evidence of the last witnesses. • Mr. Wilde, one of the dressers at the Hospital. stated that he received the child, and that it died the next day ; he imputed its death to the scalding which it had received. On his cross-examination he stated, that he considered the immersion of the child in cold water to hare been rather productive of good than of evil to the child. Mrs. Smith, the woman who took the child to be christened, deposed that it was named Mary Moore. A Roman Catholic Priest, one of the Ministers of the Chapel where the child was christened, produced the register of baptism. The prisoner made no defence, but several witnesses were called to character, who said that they all consi dered her a very humane kind woman. The Jury returned a ver.iict of Manslaughter. Joseph Silver stood indicted for the murder of his wife, by setting fire to her clothes. It appeared that the prisoner, who is a tailor.lodged with a shoemake named Nathaniel Quelch, in Hanover street, Long•acre. On the 9th of June last, his wife ran out of her room with her clothes in flames, and it was imputed to the prisoner that he was guilty of the wilful murder of the unfortunate woman, by inten tionally setting fire to her dress. The evidence nega tived that charge, but nothing could be more brutal and unmanly than the conduct of the prisoner. Instead of affording his wife assistance after she had been burnt, he left the h. u.e under piettence of getting a coach, but never returned. Having absconded, he was found some time after at Btw•street. The poor woman was conveyed to the Middlesex Hospital, where she died July 2, which was three weeks after the accident. She told the nurse jest before her death, that on the day the accident happened she had quarrelled with her hus band. She was cooking beet steaks, and had a lot of waste paper in a box, which she threw on the fire. Whil,t she consumed the paper her husband attack her a blow, aid turniug round to strike him again, her, dress caught file. After the facts had been proved, Baron VAUGHAN addressed the Jury, and said they must acquit the pri soner. It, in consequence of the blow given by the husband, she had fallen into the fire, it would have been manslaughter, but she was turning to strikes blow, and therefore it did not amount to that crime. —The Jury acquitted the prisoner. William Cooper, Hobert Adams,Jantes Dralrwell, and James Morgan, were indicted for the manslaughter of John Corker. _ This was one of the deaths which so often follow the practice of boxing. Cooper and the deceased resided in the parish of St. Pancras, where pugilistic contests •ery frequently occur. On the 18th July Cooper, who is a chimney-sweeper, get into a dispute with Corker; vine provocation occurred on both sides, and they went into the fields to fight. The defendants were present, and active in promoting the fight; nothing unfair oc curred, unless it was unfair in the defendants to press the.parties to continue the contest. They were fairly matched. The deceased said he would rather die than give in, and being weak, he received a severe fall, rup tured a blood-vessel, and died. Mr. Merry and Mr. Harding, Surgeons, at Kentish Ton n, opened the head of the deceased, and found a quantity of blood suffused on the brain. There was no appeal ance of external injury, and both wire of opinion that the violent exertion of the deceased might have occasioned the rupture which produced death. Mr. Justice Lirmsuat.x, who tried the prisoners, asked the Jury whether they were satisfied with the evi• deuce given by the Surgeons? The Jury intimated that they were quite satisfied, and instantly acquitted the defendants. Grte.--The Court was occupied several hours with the trial of three low females for stealing a basket con taining various articles of small value, and some clothes, from a woman named Gregg, who went to the house of one of the prisoners in Chequer-court, Whitecrou street. It appeared that the attachment of the prose cutax to that fascinating beverage, yin, was so strong, that she suffered the prisoners to strip off her shawl, her shoes, and other parts of her dress, and carry all to the pawnbroker's to raise money for the same sort of drink. She was carried home intoxicated and half naked. The defendants alleged that they did not rob the pro &nutria. but took the things with her consent. The Jury acquitted them. NEW COURT FososaY.—Peter Feat., who styles himself the Rev. Peter Fenn, was indicted for forging.the acceptance of James Lucett to a bill of exchange for 1591 lOs. with latent to defraud Sarah Cooke. Another count charged the prisoner with uttering the bill, knowing the twerp wee to be forged. John Cooke deposed, that he was shopman to Sarah Cooke, who carried on business at Holborn-bars ; had known the prisoner fourteen years, and was at a school at Islington, where the prisoner was a tutor some years since. The bill was produced, and the witness stated that it had been discounted by him at 5 per cent. for the pri soner ; the prisoner remarked to witness at the time, that he would be of service to him, and ordered 16/. worth of goods at the shop, for which be tendered a bill of NI. in peyment. Witness went to France afterwards with Mr. Vincent in search of the prisoner, and found him at Calais. Prisoner was about to quit Calais when witness saw him; he was ready to tall upon the earth, and ex claimed—" Oh, Goo! I am a dead man; if I had a hundred necks, I must lose them all.' The prisoner then asked to be taken to.Newgate quietly, without putting haus on him. The witness having expressed a hope to the prisoner, after the uttering, that the acceptance was a good one, the l.tter remarked. that he might rely on it, it was as good as a Bonk note. The prisoner then wrote an address upon the bill, •• No. 1. South Parade, Queen's Elms, Brampton," which, he said, was that of Mr..Lucttt. The wuness upon cross.eximination by Mr. ALLeY (the ptisones's Counsel), admitted that he had asked the prisoner to get bills for him to discount. George Vincent, an attorney. was employed by Mr. Coke to go after Peter Fenn to Paris, accompan.esl by the last witness. Nest finding hint there, they re-traced their way to Calais, where they found Fenn in company with a man named Haab's'''. When they accosted the prisoner, he exclaimed that Melton had been h s ru n and had robbed him of 7,0001. He said also that he would plead guilty. and do as Fan:W.l°y did, and then it would be over in a moment. William W knew the handwriting of Mr Lucett W.tness tesideiat 94, Pio linment.stteet. and the bill was made payable at his hi use ; the acceptance was not iu Mr. Lucett's handwrit.ng. When cross examined by Mr. Aug', the witness said he could not recollect upon what occasion be saw Mr. Lucca write. Mr. Lucett was about to be called to prove his hand. writing, hut Mr. ALLEY objected to.his evidence. Before a late Act WAS ras•ed, the 14w would not allow a man to prove his own hand•writing, as it supposed him to have an interest in the case. The act in qu?stion received the Royal Assent on the 7th of June, and was passed for the purpose of amending the law of evidence. This, of course, was the first time that the Act was brought into question, and he contended that it could not have a retrospective effect. The alleged crime was commit ted before the Act was passed, and it the prisoner had' been prosecuted in due course, the Act could not have applied to him. The Learned JUDGE overruled the objection. Mr. Lucett was then callesi, and swore that the acceptance was.not written by him. Mr. Justice GASaLEE summed up in terms not ma- terially differing from his charge of yesterday, and the Jury. after considerable deliberation, found the prisoner Guilty of We, ing the forgery wilh intent to defraud He was recommended to mercy both by the Jury and prosecutt ix. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. • MANSION-HOUSE. Mr. Joseph Colehttch, of the house of Colebatch and Co: stated, that on the 10th instant, the house received thirty-five packs of comb-wool, in the name of Messrs. Keene and Co. of Green Lettuce-lane, and that yesterday they received an order to deliver the goods to the bearer.—Toe goods were, however, refused to be delivered up, an order to that effect having been sent to Messrs. Colebatch and Co. and that firm having been indemnified in the evens of any subsequent application for the property. Mr., Diehard Greenell,.of Ashford, in Kent, stated, that co the 2stb of August, be sold to blessrs. Keene and Co. thirty-live packs of skin comb wool. Ile sent them by the Ashford waggoom . who arrieed in town on the 11th of September, but upon the 7th of September, he wrote to Messrs. Lawrence. to be present when the wool should be weighed, as it was to be a cash payment. He also took care to mention to the waggoner, not to deliver the wool at any warehouse except that of Messrs. Lawrence. The persons, however, who had given the order, succeded in rendering that cau tion unavailable. Yesterday morning, notwithstanding the under standing that the wool was to be lodged at Means. Lawrence's, the witness saw it at Messrs. Colebatch'a warehouse. The prisoner at the same time appeared at the warehouse, with an order for the delivery of the wool, in the name of Messrs. Keene and Co. of Green Lettuce-lane, and the same wool not having been paid for, witness ordered the gentleman, wbcrpresented the order, to be dei tamed in custody. Mr. Thomas Lawrence stated, that having receiged a direction from Mr. Greene° to weigh off a quantity of wool, and receive the money, be proceeded in the usual way under such circumstances. Having received the bill of parcels be sent to Green Lettuce lane at the time he knew the waggon would be in town • but no wag goner was there. nor was there a place fit for ta king in such a quantity of wool on the premises. He at once suspected that his friend was taken in. In the aftetnoon a person called upon him, and made some inquiries about the wool, and about Mr. Gseesell Witness said that be was authorised to deal upon the occasion; het the stranger appeared to be very desirous of delay -- said it would take much time to weigh the wool, and more time to examine it— and betrayed other symptoms of mischief. Witness then asked him who his banker was? to which be replied, that he had none; but in answer to another question the stranger gave hint a reference to Messrs. Wadsworth and Co. A messenger was forthwith dis patched to Messrs. W. and Co. whose premises bad a most suspi- Mous appearance. A boy was in the counting-house, bad he said, ' upon being asked for Mr. Wadsworth. that that Gentleman was gone to the Bank—(Laughter). Witness then wrut to Green Lettuce-lane, and found there a porter, who seemed to be very ig. meant, but was greatly agitated. 'Witness desired this person to take him to the place in which the wool was deposited. After' considerable hesitation the porter took him to the counting-house, which was very scantily supplied with books, &c. of a merchant's place of business. Nothing was to be found in it, in fact, except a directory. Witness appeased upon the Gamlen not to be aware of the existence of any trick, said he would weigh the wool, and put on a show of indifference no the subject. lie then sent for the waggoner, and was informed by him, that on his way to town he was met by a person in the Kent.road, who said be was sent to show him where he was to drop the goods. This person said his name was Whitehead, and be took the waggoner to llowgatabill, to one of Mr. Colebatch's warehouses. Witness immediately stopped the wool and indemnified Mr. Colebatch. The prisoner afterwards came to the warehouse to have the wool weighed, and when the matter was blowo, two persons who were waiting outside ran off and escaped. Rickard Williams, porter to Messrs. Colebatch, stated, that yes terday morning. when be came upon the premises, the prisoner and another perm appeared there fur the goods signed Keene and C.." had carts reedy ; ad wanted the wool to be delivered to them immediately. Witness sent a messenger to his masters to know whether be should or should net deliver the packs, and he received directions not to let these out of his possession. Alderman sir Joists PRIMPS) (who sat for the Lord Mayor)— Pray, Mr. ikookshaw, by what authority did you apply for the packs of wool ? Prisoner—Upon my own, Sir, I paid for them with a bill this morning. lam afraid indeed that lam a dupe. If there is any deception in this matter I am picked; and it my bill is paid into other hands by the parties I purchased the wool from I shall be the loser, for I shall be obliged to take it up—(Laughter). Sir Joon—Pray where may you reside? Prisoner—Reside: Oh, where do I reside ? why, near Man chester. Sir Jame—Whet eabouts? Prisoner (after hesitation)—Why then, at a place called Salford. Sir Joan—What is your firm, may I be so bold to ask? Prisoner (with still greater hesatation)—l am not now in business. Sir jonn—liscept as a dealer in wool. Prisoner—Why no. I can't say that. lam no more than three weeks dealing in that way. The fact was, I was introduced to Mr. Whitehead by the guard of the coach, and found him a pleasant fellow, and he told me that I could sell some wool in Manchester ; so I took three samples, and gave ten guineas a hundred for the article. I bad no idea that the wool would be detained. sir jous—With what sort M bill did you pay your friend? Prisoner—With my bill on Messrs. Oat h& and Cu. I have drawn many thousands on them, and will again. I know no mare of those Gentlemen than the nun in the moon. Here Evans, the officer who had apprehended the prisoner, pro duced a Quantity of papers which be bad found upon him; amongst them was a paper containing the particulara of the supposed trans action ; it stated that the packs were paid for by bill on Quilt& and Co. foe alit 19s. 9tl. to Messrs. Keene and Co. One of the WWI of Conn& and Co. was sent for. Upon being shown the paper, he said It was quite ridiculous • the house knew nothing of the prisoner ; hundreds of bills were a ide payable there of which they knew astbing. The prisoner could not tor a moment look at the witness. Evans—Oh, I know Mr. Brookshaw ; be is constantly at Mr. Keene's, in Green Lettuce-lane. Sir Jouss—Pray, Mr. Brookshave, where is Mr. Keene? Prisoner—The officer is mistaken; it was with Mr. Whitehead I transacted business ; I only just called at Keene's. Sir Joust—Why these papers show that you are general dealer in every thing. Prisoner—l formerly was concerned in a steam business; I now remember I did not keep cash at Messrs. Cuoliffe's, but ate and my partner kept cash at other houses. As for that bill, which I made payable a: Cunliffes, it is as good a bill as can be--(Lauehter). Upon my honour it is—l paid it away at Calout's tap, and as sore AS death have to take it up. Sir Jous•—Pray, in what other homes did you keep cash? Prisoner—At Joaes, Loyd, and C 0.%; and at Rogers, Towgood, and Co.'s. Parties appeared from those houses. but they ridiculed the idea of having bad transactions with the prisoner. Sir J olt s—Wen, Mr. lkooksbaw, are you prepared to pay for these packs of wool? Prisooer—No, not a second time. I am anxious to be at liberty that I may look after my bill, or I shall have to pay the 4101. tits. o.l.—(Cuatinued laughter). Sir Joint congratulated the complainant upon having recovered his property, and regretted that be was obliged to discharge the prisoner.—" *wham," said Sir Joss, " you may go and A new light-house is being erected on the Mall .1 Galloway.

DESTRUCTION OF ♦N INDIAN PALACE BY nu It will be seen from the following estrum nfa lette r from Poonah, dated February 22, that the Peishwe e Palace has been destroyed by fire:—c" We have lob; e ee of our lions! The Palace of Bajee Rao, erst the scree cf revel and debauchery, the abode of crime, the eetie of fraud and stratagem, is rased to the ground Yeft. day morning, about ten o'clock, a fire broke out in the Hospital attached to the Palace; the devouring ele. ment quickly spread around its devastating influence, and rendered all efforts to check it quite fruitless...- The engines were brought, but from the bad state of the pipes no use could be made of them. The whole of the European troops, together with the Sepnys and their Officers, were on the spot, and their utmost exer tions were applied to the salvation of the Palace.... They pulled down part of the wooden works that con. netted the buildings, but it was of no avail. Happily no lives were lost. Every thing was got flora the Palace, including treasure to the extent of three lass of rupees. This is to be ascribed to the efforts of the mi litary, whom I cannot praise too highly. Indeed, had it not been for them, the city would in all probability have shared in the conflagration.
