NEW BUILDINGS. The building speculations in the sokurbs of the Me tropolis still continue to an , aniaaing extent; but, per haps, they are nowhere proceeding more numerously and natively than in Pimlico, by tha King's Road, the handsome new church at Chelsea, at Hammersmith, at Chiswick (where there may be said to be a new town built), and onwards to Throb= Green, • tkc. Through Kensington alone, several thousand houses are built, or in progress of building, vastly increasing Use neigh bourhoods of Kensington, Hammersmith, Chiswick, and on the other side of Camden• Hill, Kensington, a new road is now forming from the Hammersmith road, to the Tyburn or Uxbridge road, to come out at Shep herd's Bush. On one side of this grand new road, as far as it is formed, several first-rate houses are already built. These buildings will greatly improve the pio perty of Lords Holland and Kensington. The latter Lord has several fields covered with bricks and brick kilns to build the streets, squares, crescent, &c. formed and partly commenced at this spot. As a specimen of the manner in which some individuals have improved' their *property, by letting fields on building leases, and thus securing a good many ground rents, one instance may be given. Just beyond Kensington Gore, and pre viously to entering Kensington, nearly facing the Park Gates, there are some fields that were heretofore let too cowkeeper for his cows to feed on. Of those fields what heretofore brought a rent of 321. which was lowered to 301. has now been let on building leases; and the ground rents alone, it is stated, will be upwards of 3001. a-year ! M.tny similar instances might be adduced. The indi vidual at Hammersmith who put up a board to let the ground, adding that a bt irks, money, and titisher,” might be had, has now removed it; but the whole frontage is occupied with houses recently built,.or witbfoundatious for houses. . . _ 1 DE A 711-IPA RBA NTS. There is scarcely any popular opinion more erroneous than that a hid) has obtained almost universally relating to the mode in which the order is made for the execu tion of criminals who are sentenced to death at the Old Bailey Sessions. It is generally believed that on these sad occasions it is necessary that the King . should affix his sign manual to a death -warrant, as it is usually termed : this is not the fact. Those who are better formed as to the laws of their country are aware that no such invidious duty devolves on the Sovereign He signs pardons, but not death - warrants ; in truth, t here is no such thing as a death-warrant, in the common ac ceptation of the term. The law of the land, awards the punishment of death upon those who shall be guilty of certain crimes; and it is well koown, that no repos t is made to the King of prisoners capitally convicted at the Assizes, unless the Judge shall thiok fit to do so.— In London , and Middlesex it is otherwise, except on. convictions for murder; and theo the order of the Court is sufficient warrant to the Sheriffs to. execute. At a certain period after the termination, of the Old Bailey Sessicns, it is the duty of the recorder of London to submit to, the . Lord Chancellor a. report of the capital convicts, which is subsequently laid before the King in Council, and there the respective cases ate discussed and decided upon : the result is communicated imme diately to the Sheriffs, in an order signed by the Re cordei, ilad sealed with black wax, setting forth the names of all the prisoners, and ordering the execution of cerusin individuals, and expressing that the rest are respited during his Majesty's pleasure. Thus, in point of fact, the report is made for the benevolent purpose of affording the Sovereign an, opportunity of ascertaining how many of the lives of the wretched convicts can be saved, consistently with the duty which he owes to the welfare of society ; and not for the purpose of his ordering what number of them shall suffer death There have been occasicas wherein the personal feelings of the King would have inclined him to spare the life of an individual ; but the general sentiment of the Privy Council has been so decidedly adverse, as to dis courage the interposition of the. Royal clemency. An irtstance occurred since the accession of his present Majesty, when exertions almost without a pas allel %vie made on behalf of a person under sentence of death for forgery, whose previous character had been exem plary,, and whose family and connexions were highly respectable. Noblemen and Gentleseen of rank pot forth their utmost powers of intercession, Mr. —, a • much respected Member of Parliament, obtained a private interview with the King, to whom his Majesty observed, that he had never witnessed such interest as' had been made in the case referred to, and that be was cordially disposed to save the unhappy man from an ignominious death, but it could not be effected, for these was not a single hand in the Council held up in his favour; thus the law was left to take its course. His Majesty, under such circumstances, however humane his feelings, could not, as a Constitutional consistently exercise his prerogative of mercy in direct opposition to the upanimous opinion of - his Legal Advisers. - THE SHIP WAS NEVER SEAM) OF MOREI • Her mighty sails the linens swell, And fast she leaves the lessening lend; And from the *ore a last farewell waved by many a snowy land; And Weeping eyes are on the main, Until its verge she wanders o'er; .

MA Ow, an aged Man, of reopectableappostrance, wag . 40%4 by Mr. - CiiOlt4, on be..laole of a creditor g o n d Parkinson , the bolder of the insolvent's accept ance to a bill of exchange, drawn by a person named Evans, for 00. The insolvent stated, that he had for many years kept a cloth s fi ep in 4,. Martin's-le:Gland, and in con sequence of the decline of his business, was last year obliged to pay his creditors by instalments. Bums, the drawer of the bill on which he was opposed, owed him fpoi. and being applied to for payment, proposed to the insolvent to accept. his drafts for MI . . which he would get cashed and pay the insolvent, and also pro vida foy the bills when due. To this proposal the in solvent agreed., and 'accepted three. bills, one of labia% was that now produced. Evans, after getting the bills accepted, payed them, and made off wiihont giving the -insolvent any part of the produce. Mr. Parkinson's clerk proved, that before he took the bill from Evans, he called on the insolkes,t, who told him he had received value from t vans, which represen-I 'tation induced him to take the bill. The COURT said, the insolvent, by that misrepreren tation, had brought himself under a penal clause of the Act. It was 'a painful duty to send a man in the end of his daysto prison, but justice required it. Thif judgment of the Court was, that he should be remanded for six months from the date of his Petition.

Wetberby is situated inthe West Biding of Yotkshire, on the river Wharfs, distant twelve miles from Leeds, fourteen front the city of York, sixteen front Feirybridge, and one hundred and,oinety- ' eight front London. • From the circumstance of no leases having been granted, it is rather in a dilapidated state; •it has at present no manufactory, gird the trade is inconsiderable. • Front the division of the property many votes will be added, and it may in some de gree affect the future representation of the county.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE. BOW-STREET. LONDON SHARP/CRS AND SPANISH SIAIrLICITY.--.One Mr. Phelps, a young man of good dress and address, and pretty considerable con fidence, was brought before the Magistrate, by young Taunton, charged with being concerned in stealing a gold snuff-box front Emanuel. Rodriguez, an ex-Captain in the Spanish Constitutional army. —M. Rodriguez came to this comet: y from Cadiz about seven months ago. Since his residence here, in London, he accidentally, betasne . acquainted with this Mr. Phelps, and having occasion to dispose of his gold snuff-box, on some emergency, Mr. Phelps readily endertoek to find him 'A customer. Su M. Rodriguez in. treated the bee to Mr. Phelps, telling him he should expect 151. leor k. a day or two Mr. Phelps came to him and said, he had not (Baptised of the box, but he knew the servant o f a Gentleman, tben'at illolloy's Hotel, in Bond -street, who was of opinion that theimx would suit his master exactly, and if they would come to the lintel at a certain hour next morning, he would introdierattliem. M. Rodrigues agreed to this, and at the appointed hour they set forward towards the Hotel—Al. Rodriguez, Mr. -Phelps, and a friend of Mr. "Phelps, desctibed by U. itudrigpez as a Immure (a , cobble: nr shoemaker). Just before they reached, the Hotel, they met a smartly-dressed fellow, and Mr. Phelps immediareig intro. dieted him to Al. Rodriguez, saying, " This is the servant of the Gentleman I spoke of;" to which the stranger rejoined, " My master has not done breakfast yet, but if you,will wait a short time at the public-house over the way, I will aume to you as soon as he is at leisure, and will introduce you to him." This seemed all very fair and reasonable, and they adjourned to the public-house accord ingly. By-and-bye the supposed servant came running into the room, out of breath, and said, " My master will be much obliged by a sight of the box for a moment, and if he approves of it be will see you; if not, he will return it instantly."-- This also seemed very fair and reasonable to 31. Rodriguez, and, be forthwith handed the box to him, but the knave never returned. Mr. Phelps walked , . out, and forgot to retnrn • soon after the cob bler followed Mr . Phelps's example, and AI. Rodriguez was left by himself. Ile remained there, waiting-their return, for nearly three hours, exposed to the unfeeling ridicule of the people of the house, because he was agitated, and could nut explain himself in English. At length he gave up all hopes of seeing his box'again ; and having by the advice of his friends laid an information at this office, young Taunton succeeded: in catching, Mr, PhOps, on . Tumidity niglikat a. public-house in the Haymarket. M, Rodriguez was present when he was captured, and having upbraided him soundly for his dupli city, asked him what was become of the box? to which Mr. Phelps replied, that it was sold and broken up.—This was the substance of the.evidenee against hint, delivered• by M. Rodriguez in Spanish, and interpreted by ap English Gentleman present; and Mr. Phelps having nothing to say in his defence, except that he had been de. eeived as well as M. Rodriguez, the Magistrate committed hint for Nether examination on Tuesday next. •QU ER N-SQU A RE. Tuesday evening, a reapectably.4ressed man enterel this Mice, almost treathless, :end complained that, 44 had been knocked down by a soldier on Constitution-hill, ip the Park, and that two other 'soldiers, who pretended to assist him to get sip, rifled his pockets. He pursued them to the gate of the Barracks at Knightsbridge, which they, entered ; but the sentinel at that place protease& his following them, by threatening to run him through with ,a bayonet. The Maxus said, be would grant a warren: if he was sure be could point out the men ; but the applicant stating that, from his alarm at the moment, be was afraid be could not, The glantsvaasu said, be could mica no cognizance of the nut ter without further evidence. A'TTON-G ARDEN, Damps' Nesipqn, an interesting ynqng woman, wasre-emmined, on a charge of robbing her late master, Mr. Louis Desormeaux, surgeon and accoucheur, 16, Chariton-street, Somers Town. The matron of the House of Correction said she had taken no suite name since Monday evening. The house surgeon had attended tier, and endeavoured to ascertain her complaint, but the only answer he could obtain to his inquiries was, that she bad a violent pain in the . chest.—Mr. Desormeaux said that she had enjoyed good health,, and that he bad made up his mind to prosecute. He then stated that the prisoner had , lived in his house several months, and that during Mrs. 4.'s illness several articles-were missed, and on searth km the girl's box, some wearing apparel and ornaments were found, together with three bottles of wine, and 255. in silver. The piker who apprehended her, said she had confessed that the money, wear ing apparel, and ornaments, were her mastcr's property, but , that the wine was given to her three years since, and site always carrigel it in her box.—The prisoner made no defence, and was committed to Newpte. WORSHIP-STREET. • William Daly, a good looking young man, about 24 years of age, a native of the" Emerald Isle," and a dumby, was brought before , Mr. °moans, for final ez4minadon, upon the following charge: It appeared, that about the 4th inst. tie prisoper, whp followed the tiecupodon'uf a Fortune Teller, ealledpt the residence of a Mrs. Beeves, No. 13, Money's -street, Hoxton New Town, where, by making 1141169 and producing certain testimonials, such as slates Ipers, certificates, Ice. title. he convinced • her, as, well at unuthe, ady who lo4ges. in, the same house, that be undoubtedly, pm awed the pow& of " taking a peep into future events." They accordingly requested of hint to put into practice those catraottli nary A A which he ansertred lty siiros, taking at the same time for his voidance the examets_of bfhliFprofessioa, certainly o f a mire estakial . rank, natnay, he, no opinion; " or," N o money, no posher-Dctstelr." They then made up ts. 6d. when he smilingly set his charms to *ark. and so phased were the Ladies with his antici pations of tick future prospects in life, that they gave him an inyi. anion to ean rpm assitbet day. In the meantime the Ladies apprised a usavallist *Water female acquaintances as to the expected testa of their beiglstoullag prospects, and appointed a day for them to partake oldie eiouttainment. in a few days after, the prisoner milkd, but unfamiliarly it was swathe day appointed by the Lae. i t , end *Jr Neat*. The priseintc, alter entering the rebm, mad e 'signs of his anxiety as to be time. Mrs. Reeves reached him her watch, when he, after examining its Internal wapitis, signed to her ,that it was not worth a farthing, and he then pat It in hit p oc k et . and after remaining Once hours in the room s took it away anti pawned it for £l. The following is a copy of nne of the papers fund by Vann urA the prisonek : 44 The bearer hereof is a young man deprived of ti: faculty of hearing or speaking, is of a respectable family, his lath : having been an Meer of high rank In the 63d Regiment, whet 'was unfortunately killed k 7 a fall from hie horse, which aLcait.l was shortly after she Muse of his mother's death.

Mr. Ossoanz thought, under the singular circumstances of tile case, be could look, on it in no other point of view than under the Pawning Act. lie therefore committed the prisoner for one month to the House of Correction, or to pay double the value (viz. Xi.) M A MSlo,l44lol.kiilL John Arnim% an ea-corporal, wts brought before the Lou Maros, charged with having assaulted his landlord, Mr. Lohte r , of Thompson's-court. Mr. Lebley said, that the corporal not having been regular in his payments of rent, it was found necessity to expostulese with his, particularly as he managed to give expensive entertainments. The corporai mid, that he had never in the whole course of his military life been so badly treated. Heltad been at Saragossa, Ba. dajoa, and other dangeronsplaces—he bad won many honours, and survived them—but never did he see such terrible blades in his lite as the villains that attacked him. A femato who visited him, stated,- that the landlord had acted " ungenteel* in walking into Mr. Pattison's apartments uninvited, accompanied by several sweeps, and other perumh who dress was not fit to beseen by the company. But Mr. Patiscs thought not so much of this intrusion as he did of the conduct of the land. lord in talking of a shabby debt before the guests. The landlorchaW, dist the last witness's word was nottobe taken, as she-happened to be a little drunk at the tinge of the row. The witness shook bey head, and looked severely at the com plainant. She said that she scorned the imputa i tion • no more than & one glass of ix had gone round, and she and M r. Paulson 11,1 just finished a country dance when the gentlemen. of the other party disturbed them. I I A untidier of persons were ready to swear that both stories were true; but the Loots ?dawns dismissed the business. A merchant of respectability, who is a Magistrate of an adjoin ing county, etuged another Gentleman with an assault. The Ma gistrate said, that the defendant had made it a practice for some time past, to follow. hilt through the street, and apply the most oppro brious epithets to. bias. The complainant bad been compelled to bring the matter before a Magistrate upon a former occasion, and the defendant was obligt4 9). enter into recognicances to keep the peace, but this oblation was disregarded, and h- was guilty of a repetition of the offensive conduct, which would have occasioned a forfeiture of the bail, it it bad bees thought necessary to proceed to extremities. The defendant admitted that be followed and called the complain ant a scoundrel, which was not an assault or breach of:he peace.
