APRIL to A rrao too Res.—join Rowe was indiaed for de. frauding Sarah Hall of the fun of as. 6d. It appeared the prifoner was one of thofe mo dem Sidrophels, " Who deal in deitiny's dark counfili. And Page opinions of the moon fell.. To whom all people far and near On deep importances repair." He had announced his celebrity in refolving all queftions appertaining to future events in a hand bill, addretfed to the Ladies only, in which he acquainted them he attended at his Evening Pla netarium, No. 5, Exeter-ftreet, Strand, at a Man gler's, the end next Catherine-ftreet, up two pair of hairs, where he aufwered all lawful queflions, calculated natives, tee. Sarah Hill, a woman well firicken in years, having heard of his marvellous great fame, deter mined- to vifit him, and, through the medium of his influence with the ftars, acquire the knowledge of her future deftinies. She had never fubmitted ; to the chains of matrimony, confequently her in quirks chiefly tended to afcertain whether the fates had ordained her to a life of celibacy ? Has , - ing depofited the ufual fymbol, which was half a crown, the difciple of Zoroafter proceeded to I unfold the high behells of heaven : he faithfully ; delineated her horofcope, traced the planets through their feveral houfes, and difeovered by myßic lore who was lord of the afcendant at her birth • hay. I ing fyflematically arranged their feveral afpccts, he exclaimed, with the infpiration of the Cumsan Sybil, that the fates were propitious to her wilhea, that Mars and Venus were in conjunaion ; Virgo and Gemini, &stile, and Mercury, lord of the feventh houfe, the very hour the was born, and confequently that theft appearances dcaoted mar riage, and a numerous progeny. Her having hi. therto lived a tingle life he laid was attributable to the malign influence of Saturn, hut that it would no longer prevail ; he therefore clerked her to go home, and affure herfelf of approach 11117. happinefs, he informed her the would be firft c,,urted by a dark man with broad thouldevs, dark hair, large dark eyes,buthy eyebrows,andthinlegs,but he was not the man the was to have ; the hulband for whom the !tars intended her was rt fair ono, with • light hair, and blue eye:, And very *healthy : fire was to fee hime for the fir* time, Within a few days; He likewife informel iter the might gain a cotifiderablefum of money If the would• infnre a certain number in the Lotter {•.' T he' old . Lady was all ..extacy at the idea of her 'good fir:tune ; the left• the myfterions apartment, returned to tar houfe, • and communicated he; approachMg nup tials told' her acquaintance. She waited with the utmoft impatience, but neither dark -nor fait man made his appearance. l 6he infured the num ber in thei'Lottery, u the had been direaed, but it never came up; and, in addition to her other difappointments, the loft her money. Happening to inform a friend, who had more wifd.•ni than herfelf, of the caufe of her cxpeetations, he ad. vifed her to .!pply to a Magiftrate, which the did, and the pfettdo propi•et was apprehended, his ma gical apparatus. and books feized, and hinui:if in carcerated. The fats having been fully fubflantiated, the prifoner was called upon for his defence. He faid he was a poor man,a carpenter by tradt, and, by the exervie of his profeflion, had hitherto maintained a wife and large family; but that fueh was the pre lure of the times, though he worked as hard as ever he did, he could not fup port them.—That his wife had been jutt In ought to bed, and he was unable to provide her with the comforts her fituation required—that as he found in this age every Rate was upheld by decep tion, he therefore thought there could be no harm in his gaining a trifle by availing himfelf of the public credulity.—The prifoner was found guilty. The Chairman °Nerved, that however fuch a caufe as this might provoke langhter,it was really an offence which was of the milt ferious tenden cy, and might be produaivc of the wort' con fequences. The prifoner promifed, if the Court would be merciful to him, that he would never again be guilty of a fimilar offence. 11c begged to have his magical books returned, as he had only pur ' chafed them on credit, and the bookfeller had threatened to fummon him far their value. This application was not granted. The prifoner was then fentenced to a further confinement of one month. MATRIMONIAL NVARTARE. Mrs. Randall, wife of William Randall, a trader- . man of this city, was indided for affaulting and beating her hutband. From the evidence of Mr. Randall it appeared, he was in a ,good line of bu fi nels as a paper ttaiu er ; that he had been married fixteen years to the prifoner, and for the lan two had lived feparate from her, on account of her violent and improper conduct ; that he had entered into an agreement to allow her 9s. 6d. a week, which he had regu larly paid her, and frequently in advance, but that neverthelefs the made a pradice of repeatedly corn. ing to his houfe to abufe and atfault him, and oc cation a riot. On the day mentioned in the indid ment the had fo annoyed him, without any jutt pretence, and had 'truck him feveral blows, and be had therefore found it neceffary to profecute her, for the fake of his own perfonal fecurity, and do meflic quiet. Mrs. Randall, in her defence, faid her hatband had turned her helplefs out of his honk ; that it was true the had agreed to live apart from him, but that he had not paid her with regularity ; that he lived in a (late of open adultery—of double adultery, with the wife of a refpedable tradefman, in the employ of the India Houle ; a woman of bad charader, who, having firit been criminally attached to her brother, had !hewn her partialitT for the family by feducing the affe6tions of her hut. band.—Her whole offence, the Paid, confined in the misfortune of having outlived her hu(band's liking.- She had gone to his houfe becaufe the thought, as his wife, the had a there. He had frequently taken her up, and had her confined in the watch-houfe and in prithn, and upon the prefent charge the had been imprifoned fine January. The affault having been proved, fhe was found Gary. The Chairman told her, that if her hu(band ne. gleded to pay her the money he had agreed to al.' low her, the law would enable her to recover it ; but as the had contented to live apart from him, (he was not to undernand that ( he had a right to go when the pleated to his houfe, to affault hint and promote a noire and riot. If the perfilled in fuch condud, the would tidied hetfelf to be continually in prifon.—The Court, for het prefent offence, fen. tented her to a further imprifonment of (even days. FRAUD ON THE TRANSPORT BOARD. John Adam was tried for defrauding the Trani: port Board of One Guinea. • • The prifoner was a Venetian, xxho, it appeared, by the facility with which he fpoke the languages of Europe, might have pallid ether for a native of Italy, France, Spain, Holland, Portugal or any other of its countries. lie had been in the habit of difcovering French prifoners of war, who had leaped from prifon, for the apprehension of each of whom he wag allowed one guinea by the Tran& port Board. Finding a poor Italian who was in great diftrefs, he told him he would get him a tha. ling a day if he wotild go to the Board and repro. lent himfelf as a French prifoncr ; he previoully infiruaed him in the Rory he was to relate—he was to fay he-bad been taken on board the French privateer M9n Oncle Thomas, and carried into Briulol. frog the prifon of which he had cfcapeds by giving the fentry a couple of gitinesii. When the Italian told this Rory to the Boird, the prifo. nor received as ufual a guinea for difcovering him i but upon the examination of the fuppofed French. man, by the Linguill at the office, it was remark ed, that his accent was net that of a native of Brittany, as he reprefent.;sl laimfelf. This excittil furpicion, and upon inquiry it was found, tln•ugh there was fuch a French privateer as Mon One Thomab, yet that no one of that name had been captured or carried into Brillol. The Italian, upon bemg further qii,flinned, cowl tied the whole to have bean an invztaion at the inftigationot Wain, the prifoner. The prifoner wac found guilty, het hii fentence was refpited, in order that he might be lent out of the kingdom. i
