LAW INTELLIGENCE. COURT OF CHANCERY, Jut:: 25. KING'S COUNSEL. His Majesty having been pleased to raise Mr. Pem berton, Mr. Tinney, the Hon. Mr. Law, and Mr. Knight, to the dignity of King's Counsel, these gentlemen, in their silk gowns, were invited by the Lord Chancellor to take their seats within the bar. 30:NES V. DESANGES. The Lord Chancellor gave judgment in this cause, which was an appeal from the decision of the present ice-Chancellor. The question at issue was altogether one of practice, and related to the proper construction of the words of the 15th new order. The Lord Chancellor confirmed the judgment of the inferior Court. TARLETON V. DYER. In this case the Court also gave judgment. The ques tion was, whether the Clerk in Court, having accepted costs, acted as a waiver of any irregularity the party paying them had previously committed ? His Lordship was clearly of opinion that the Clerk in Court was in pre cisely the same situation in this respect as an attorney at common law; he consequently decided accordingly. MR. WELLESLEY'S CHILDREM.-WELLESLEY V. THE DUKE OF BEAUFORT. The Lord Chancellor, seeing Mr. Wellesley was in at tendance, repeated what he had intimated yesterday.— He said, that having seen Mr. Ebden, and from the con versation he had had with him, and the representations he had made of what had occurred at Seagry the last va cation, he was of opinion that it would not be proper for the young gentlemen to spend the ensuing holidays there. He should therefore order it to be referred to the master to select a proper place for them to go to. The other matters in the petition of Mr. Wellesley would be heard when the petition came on, which it would do in regular course in a few days. Mr. Wellesley—Will your Lordship allow me to make one observation, and, from ill health, I feel almost inca pable of that. I will not detain your Lordship for a moment ; but I must beg leave respectfully to oppose the project of sending the matter to the master. The Court could settle it in five minutes, and from the experience I have had of the master's office during these proceedings, if it goes there, I am fearful there is little chance of its getting out in six months. The Lord Chancellor—l have most attentively con sidered the matter in all its bearings, and I am of opinion that it must go. before the master. The Solicitor-General, on the part of his clients, had no wish for it to do so. They would be quite satisfied if his Lorship would name some place. The Lord Chancellor said he was influenced only by a wish to promote the benefit of the children. Mr. Wellesley and the Solicitor-General were both about to say something, but Mr. Wellesley begged to be heard ; his object was not to oppose, but to facilitate any arrangement that might be made. If the boys were not sent into the neighbourhood of their own estates, it was a matter to him of perfect indifference where they went to. The Solicitor-General might name any town or vil lage in Europe. The Solicitor-General said, that Europe was too large a scope for choice ; England was quite enough, and he could . only again say, that they should be satisfied with any place the Lord Chancellor might select. He must, however, repeat his application to be permitted to see what Mr. Ebden had written. He felt it impossible to do his duty to his clients if he was not honoured with that confidence. The Lord Chancellor was still of opinion that it would be far better for no one to see it. If he handed it to one party, the other of course must see it, and it would, to a certainty, soon find its way into the newspapers, and that publicity could not but be injurious to the young gentlemen. The Solicitor General—Not on our part, my Lord; and, as to the other side, as they are in the habit of com municating with Mr. Ebden, it cannot be a matter of con sequence to them. _ _ _ Mr. Wellesley said that the Solicitor General assumed what was not the fact; he held no communication with Mr. Ebden. The Lord Chancellor was strongly against showing it to any body. The Solicitor General said he had an arduous and im portant duty to perform, and although he of course was satisfied with the judgment the Court had given, and as sured that the high station as well as the known love of justice for which his Lordship was distinguished would induce him, and it would himself, to give this matter his most serious consideration, he yet felt the absolute neces sity of knowing the grounds upon which the Court was acting. The Lord Chancellor—Well, if both parties will insist upon it, I suppose I must. The Solicitor General did not see how he could advise his clients without being made acquainted with all the circumstances of the case. The Lord Chancellor—l am convinced it will be greatly against the interest of the young gentlemen, but, if you will insist, I have no option. Mr. Wellesley assured his Lordship, on his word of honour, that as far as he was concerned it should not be made public. The Solicitor-General made no further remark ; and Mr. Wellesley then inquired if the Court would name the place. The Lord Chancellor—l must see Mr. Ebden again, and after I have conversed with him about it I will let the parties know my determination. Mr. Wellesley expressed himself perfectly satisfied ; but said he had yet a trifling favour to ask ; would his Lordship allow his case to stand at the head of the paper for the 31st, the day appointed for it to be heard ? The Registrar said it already stood second. This arrangement appeared satisfactory, and the parties wkhdrew. The Lord Chancellor has issued the following notice, which is now posted up in Lincoln's Inn Hall:— " The Lord Chancellor will bear motions on Saturday nest, the 25th instant, and proceed with his general list of bankrupt pe titions on Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday, the 27th, 28th, and 29th, and will bear motions on Thursday, the 30th, and proceed with cause, lunatic, and remaining bankrupt petitions, on Friday the 31st, sad foUowing days, to the 13th of August, on which and the two succeedir.g days his Lordship will hear motions according to their date, to be entered in a list for that purpose." VICR•CHANCELLOR'S , COURT JULY 23. -- -- - - _ Mr. Tinney, Mr. Pemberton, Mr. knight, and the Hon. Charles Law, who have been appointed King's Counsel, took their seats within the bar with the usual formalities. The Court was occupied the entire morning hearing arguments in a tithe cause, of not the least public interest. COURT OF KING'S BENCH. JULY 23. Middlesex Sitting at Nisi Prins—Special Juries. NOAKES V. WIGRAM AND CO. Pliis was an action to recover damages for defamation. The plaintiff, a publican, who carried on business some time ago at the Marsh-gate, Westminster-road, having become a bankrupt, the defendant opposed him, and sub sequently described him to be an uncertificated bankrupt. A witness was celled to prove the defamatory words, but did not appear.—The plaintiff was consequently non suited. CRIDI. CON.-DEAN V. TIIODIAS._ This action was brought by the plaintiff, a corn chandler in High-street, Shoreditch, against the defend ant, an apothecary in the same neighbourhood, to recover compensation in damages for criminal conversation with the plaintiff's wife. The Attorney-General stated the case. The plaintiff, his wife, and the defendant, belonged to the religious per suasion called Quakers. Mr. Dean married 25th Jan. 1820. They had several children, and he should prove they lived happily up to the time of the cause of this ac tion. The defendant, in his character of apothecary, at tended Mrs. Dean two years prior to the adultery, and he should prove that he had made his professional visits con ducive to his designs upon her person. Mrs. Dean, be fore the defendant's seduction, was much attached to her husband, and during the time she was in the country for the benefit of her health, wrote to him in very affectionate terms. Towards the close of 1828, the plaintiff's suspi cions were excited, but he had no proof of criminal con duct on the part of the defendant and his wife before the 24th of January last, when his shopman made a commu nication respecting the visits of Mr. Thomas, and letters which had been sent to his wife. The plaintiff ordered him the next day to detain all letters for Mrs. Dean and deliver them to him. Several letters from the de fendant to Mrs. Dean, consequently fell into his hands, and upon opening her desk scraps of paper in the hand writing of the defendant were found, which left no doubt upon the subject of the criminal intimacy of the parties. The Attorney-General said he should also prove, by the evidence of a witness, that the defendant was seen in bed with the plaintiff's wife. There were other disgusting circumstances which he could not then state to the jury, but which would be proved in evidence. It would appear that the defendant fell on his knees before his wife, and confessed that he had been criminally connected with Mrs. D. The jury would hear the letters, and decide, no doubt, upon all the facts, that it was a case of uncom mon atrocity. It would be found that a medical man professing to belong to a sect considered honest, had abused the confidence which his profession naturally in spired, and that he had taken a base advantage of the husband of a patient, as well as the patient herself. Their verdict would, no doubt, teach such men that they were not to violate decency with impunity. The hand-writing of the defendant, in several letters, was then proved. The plaintiff's father proved that his son and daughter lived happily after their marriage. J. Stokes, shopman to the plaintiff, stated that the de fendant was in the habit of coining to his master's house in November or December, when his master was from home. He was aware that the conduct of the defendant with respect to Mrs. Dean was improper. A letter from Mr. Thomas to Mr. Dean was then put in and read. The defendant lamented that any difference should have occurred betwen him and his oldest friend. He was sure the plaintiff's wife would rather part with life than honour. He had frequently lifted her on the bed, and if it was asserted he had done more it was false and malicious. He would not for the world, and the pu nishment to be inflicted here and hereafter, be the cause of unhappiness to the plaintiff. The witness Stokes then spoke to other letters which he delivered to the plaintiff, and which were produced to prove a criminal intercourse. They were written by the defendant to Mrs. Dean. The earliest letter from him was in these words :- - " My dear and respected Friend—What have I done that I am not to have a look from you whom Ido love to distraction? If I have offended, let me know how I have so done. I called at the Post-office, and was disappointed. I pray thee let me hope that it will not happen again." Another letter contained the words-- " Ob, no, I did not disclaim against thee. How cruel! I would protect thee. How shall I bear from thee? I have not ackoow. kdged any thing." In the next letter to her he said he had been wrong, but not criminal, and proposed to protect her as long as he could. " Whatever letter or letters I may be forced to write, believe me they will not come from the heart. Mrs. Runtbolt saw my wife yesterday, but she had nothing further to say than that we were in a room where a bed was." These were the letters on which the jury were to pre sume a criminal intimacy. Sarah Plumley proved that she was present when Mrs. Thomas made the defendant go down on his knees and acknowledge that he had acted criminally with Mrs. Dean. Ann Rumbolt said Mrs. Dean and Mr. Thomas came to her house in Thames-street three times, and on every occasion they went into a room and remained together half an hour. Mary Sturdy proved that the defendant came to her master's house one night when her master was in the country. It was ten o'clock, and the witness had been ordered by her mistress to go to bed. She did not go to bed, but saw Mr. Thomas go into the room where her mis tress was in bed, and he remained there twenty minutes. Mr. Chapel said he was at the house of the defendant, and Mrs. Thomas said she was not surprised at what had happened between her husband and Mrs. Dean. On one occasion she said she had actually caught Mr. Thomas in the act of adultery with one of his patients in the sur gery. The witness saw several letters which had been written by the defendant to Mrs. Dean, and two scraps of paper found in Mrs. Dean's writing desk. On one of the scraps was written in pencil, by the defendant— " My dearest Friend—lt is my sore separation that causes all my deep distress." The evidence for the plaintiff having been examined, Mr. Brougham addressed the jury for the defendant, and contended that the case made out by the Attorney General was not such as his learned friend had under taken to prove. The ridiculous story of confession on the defendant's knees was the only strong part of the evi dence, and that confession could not be relied on, because it was made under duresse. That great domestic poten tate, the defendant's wife, had compelled him to confess, and on that account it must be looked upon with caution —(A laugh). The case, if the jury should consider it proved, was not one for heavy damages, because the de ' fendunt was not in a condition to pay heavy damages. Lord Tenterden summed up, leaving the jury to decide whether adultery had been committed, and to consider the damages. The jury retired, and on their return found for the plaintiff— Damages, 4001. Many Quakers were in Court. CONSISTORY COURT, JUT 23. Before Dr. LUSHINGTOX. JONES V. JONES. This was a suit for the restitution of conjugal rights, brought by Hugh Jones against his wife, who had sepa rated herself from cohabitation by reason of alleged cruelty. The allegations offered on the part of the wife was very lengthy and minute, and pleaded that. at the time of her former Irasband's death she was possessed of an income to the amount of 400!. per annum, and other considerable property. That before contracting a second marriage with the said Hugh Jones, he represented himself untruly as having an independence, and a I ___g_ connection as a Surveyor ' which produced five hun dred pounds per annum. That shortly after their mar riage, he was arrested, and thrown into the King's Bench Prison, and that he had succeeded in obtaining considerable sums of money from his wife under various threats and pretensions—that repeated acts of cruelty had taken place during cohabitation, and that the object of the suit was to endeavour to obtain he residue of the property' which she possessed, for the support of her children. A Counsel said the allegation was inadmissible, by rea son of its general nature. Dr. Addams, on behalf of the wife, said that the object of the husband was clearly not to obtain the comfort of his wife's society ; but that he might subsist upon her Property. The Judge reviewed the articles of the allegation, and said the Court had no cognizance of monied matters be twixt man and wife, as it could not consider the fact of the husband having an eye to his wife's property when he contracted marriage, as sufficient to render an allegation admissible ; therefore that part must be reformed, which, when expunged, I shall admit the allegation. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. MANSION—HOUSE. Yesterday a young man named Watt, a clerk upon trial at the Norwich Union Assurance Corporation, was brought up on the charge of having plundered his employers to a considerable amount. Some ingenuity was displayed by Daniel Forester. who is one of the most efficient officers of police, in detecting the accused. From the evidence given, it appears that a system of plunder on the As surance Company bas been long carried 00, but all means of de tecting the tblef had failed. One day a boa with 1001. disappeared. Forrester was applied to, and set himself to discover the thief; his suspicions fell on Witt. Forrester followed the accused from place to place, and though no salary was paid, the accused was in the habit of engaging a post-chaise, and showing a good deal of money. The accused had ordered a chaise to take him into the country, but Forrester, before he got into it, arrested him. The prisoner protested he was innocent. Forrester searched the house in which the prisoner lodged, and in a dark cellar, which was never used, after a long search, found 29 sovereigns, all bearing the mark put upon them to discover the thief. The cash-box was found in the privy.—The prisoner was remanded for some days. GUILDHALL _ _ _ Yesterday the driver of John Thorogood's Paddington stage coach, No. 4,056, and Bobbins, the driver of John Clarke 's Paddington stage, No. 5,461 mere charged before Sir Peter Laurie, by Thrusby and Alterman ' two of the Society's officers for Pre venting Cruelty to Animals, with racing their coaches against each other in Coleman -street, on Saturday afternoon last. The worthy Magistrate severely reprimanded them, by observ ing that theirs and the other Paddington coaches were the greatest nuisance on the road to Paddington, for no person either with a saddle horse or gig could with safety come along the road where these coaches run, as they were in danger of being overturned by the too frequent manner of their furious driving and racing their coaches against each other. The worthy Alderman also said that he was determined to visit every such case brought before him with the utmost severity ; and after giving the officers credit for their exertion in bringing this case forward, he fined each of the defendants 40s. and costs, and told them that if they repeated it, he would fine them In the full penalty of 51. each. BOW-STREET. A summons having been issued, calling on the proprietors of Covent-garden Theatre, at the instance of the parish of St. Paul, Covent-garden, to appear before the Magistrates at this office yesterday, and show cause why they neglected to pay their arrears of poor rates and parochial rates, due at Lady. day last, and amounting to the sum of 8961. 191. 4d. Mr. Corder, the Vestry- Clerk, with one of the Overseers and the Collector of the parochial rates, appeared on behalf of the parish to support the information, but no person on behalf of the proprietors of the Theatre presented himself. Mr. Corder uid he bad reason to believe that the proprietors, nor any person on their part, would attend ; and be, therefore, in the performance of his duty, at once would ask for a warrant to enable the parish to distraiu upon the property of the Theatre for the amount of their debt. _ _ Sir Richard Birnie asked what length of time had elapsed since the serving of the notice 3lr. Corder replied that the summons was left at the Theatre us Monday. The proprietors had had ample notice of the inten tions of the parishioners, Independently of the summons, and, in answer to a communication irons the parish officers proposing to allow a further time for the payment of the parochial rates, on the condition that the amount of poor -rates, MI. (included in the sum of of 8961. 19s. 4d.) should be immediately discharged— they had declared that they were not in a capacity to satisfy any part of the demand. Sir Richard Birnie thought the notice which had been given hardly sufficient. Proceedings of this nature were very serious .in their consequences, and he always liked to give ample wide, to parties. He thought it would be as weU to serve with a second summons before a distress warrant was issued. Mr. Corder had no objection, akbough the first aervice had been sufficient under the local Act. He mu►t request, however, that the summons be made returnable on Saturday. Sir Richard Birnie thought that would not be allowing sufficient time. Mr. Corder said the parish were afraid the proprietors would dispose of the theatre before they could carry Weir intentions into effect. Sir Richard Birnie observed that at present there appeared to be little fear of such an event, and ultimately the summons was issued for Monday neat. Sir Richard Mamie considered that it would be much better if the summonses could be served upon the proprietors personally, instead of being merely left at the theatre, at it appeared the first summons was; but the collector stated that such a course was not practicable, Mr. Charles Kemble being now in Dublin, Mr. Harris in Paris, and Messrs. Willett and Forbes out of town. Mr. Robinson, the Treasurer, was per fectly aware of the course the parish were pursuing. The amount owing by the Theatre tor parochial and poor-rates, up to Midsum mer, is 1,124/. HATTON-GARDEN. Garrick Brindey Sheridan, a near relative of the celebrated Richard Brinsley Sheridan, was brought up by the officers of St. Pancras, on a warrant. for deserting his wile and chiklrer.. When brought here on a similar charge some time ago, be consented to allow her 6s. per week, but the payment was lung in arrear. He now wished for an order of removal to Dublin, where he stated he had a settle ment. He first refused to take the necewaty oath with respect to his wife and children, as he denied being the father of the infant she held in her arms. It was at length elicited that he had no legal right to a settlement there, having been born on ship-board in the Channel, near to the Irish coast. The order for removal was, therefore, void, and the Magistrate insisted upon his paying the sum in arrear, which he immediately did. This unfortunate female a few years back rode in her mother's (Lady Perrot's) carriage; and her acquaintance with her husband, though the recital bears the blush of romance, is strictly correct : She was at Cheltenham with her family during sonic private thea tricals, in which her sister sustained a character with Mr. Sheridan. A clandestine acquaintance was the result, which the gentleman so quickly improved, that in three weeks she became his wife. Yesterday, Thomas Taylor, alias Rogers, alias llssghes ; Charles Janus. alias Taylor • John Holloway, Samuel Webb, Henry Smith, Charles Emery, and James Bond, were finally examined for coining. Lane, a watchman, swore he was employed by Limbrick to en- trap the prisoner Taylor, and he accordingly purchased counter feit shillings of him. The officers entried the publie•house where the transaction occurred. and seized the whole of the prisoners.— Taylor was fully committed for trial ; the rest of the party, being well known characters, and not being identified with the coining, were ordered to and bail. QUERN—SQUARE. Yesterday J. Peddle and J. Richards were brought before the magistrates, charged with an assault. Sirs. Frances Devine. of Burlington Arcade, stated that between one and two o'clock on the previous night she was returning from Vauxhall-gardens with her niece ; there were two other ladies and a gentleman in company. After passing along Vauxhall.bridge.they were overtaken by the defendants and two other men, in %Milbank. street. who took up a quantity of mud, and pelted them with it down the street, until their clothe. were covered with mud .nd completely spoiled. The defendant Richards hit her a blow on the neck with same missile, and her niece was also struck with a stone. Being greatly alarmed at their brutal conduct, she desired her niece t i run forward and procure an officer to protect them. The defendants continued to pest them until they got to Palace-yard, where a party of the Bow -street patrol took them into cu.tody She never saw the defendants before in her Me. The niece of Mrs. Devine, about Is years of age, corroborated' this statement. The defendants were then fined .5t each to the King, the full penalty, or in default to bs.contrnitted to the House of Correction for two months. The money net being forthcoming, they were locked 11. MAK LLIOROUGH—STREET. A young man, who gave his name Courtier, was yestJrday placed at the bar, before J. E. Conant, Esq. Lord !doomed, and J. Caw thorn, Esq. ebarged with having upwards of 301. in money on under the following suspicious circumstances :—lt appeared t h7 t on Tuesday the prisoner went into a jeweller's shop, and another individual. bought two diamond rings, for which t c.. changed a 101. note, and gave a name and address, Sadie& str e ; t l Piccadilly; and on the same day they went to Sewell and Crow,' w i t' haberdashers, in Compton-street, and changed a 51. for g em ; articles ; here they gave a different name, and also a different adde eis Green, a beadle of St. Giles's, stated that he knew the p er "; who accompanied the prisoner to these shops : be had been i n state of want, and had scarcely any clothes to his back until Te t i, day, when seeing him so elegantly dressed with the prisoner, he sp petted all was not right, and knowing that the prisoner lodged is Church-street. St. Giles's, $ compkte receptacle for thieves, h e apprehended the prisoner to see if be could give a satisfsei nty account of himself. Mr. Conant asked the prisoner what he had to ay? The prisoner, who appeared much incensed at the situation ip which he was placed, said that the notes were honestly his ; the 201. one had been given to him by his uncle sixteen days ago, en d be had received the other 101. of a publican the day before that...,, He was ordered to be remanded. TH A M ES—POLICE. Mr. Kean, an extensive ship-owner, yesterday applied to M r . Ballantine for a summtnons against the commander of a vessel, to compel him to give up the log-book. Mr. Ballantine /Aid he had no power to interfere. The sal, mode of proceeding would be an application to the Court of Kin g ., Bench._ _ _ _ _ Mr. Kean submitted that in such cases, a Justice of the p ew had a summary power. For instance in the case of detention ot' a register, a magistrate could oblige the Captain to give it up forth. with. Mr. Ballantine admitted that in case of a ship's register be could forthwith compel its return; bust that gave him no authority to oblige a Captain to give up his log-book, which might be his pri. •ote property. Mr. Kean departed, observing be must pursue other means. DEPARTURE of DR. PHILLIP and EIGHT MISSIONARIES FOR SOUTH AFRICA. Dr. Phillip, accompanied by three missionaries from Germany, three from France, and three from England, left Lon. don on Thursday last. On Wednesday a public meeting was held in Cannon-street, which was crowded to excess, when they took their leave of their London friends. The Rev. Joseph Fletcher, of Stepney, addressed them, and at the close of his remarks, said, " We solemnly pledge ourselves in the presence of this as sembly, and before you, and in the presence of the great Ina- NAL, that we will never forget you ; that in the solitude of the closet, and the intercession of the social meeting, and the tetnem brances and supplications of the sanctuary we will never forget you, but every recollection of you shall warm our hearts with gra titude to Goo for what Ha has done, and for what we believe Hs will do by your instrumentality ; that the sacred course to which you are devoting your lives may prosper under the Diem bent. diction, and that you may receive and enjoy the richest tokens et the DIME approbation ! Beloved Brethren, we commit you to the care and blessing of our Loan. May His arm of power sustain you ; may Hu wing of mercy be over you ; may His smile of favour and love be upon you, and the light of His countenance be yow sweetest solace on earth. and the consummation of your felicity in Heaven ! On your voyage to distant shores may Hs give the winds and the waves a charge concerning you ; may He ,preserve your harmony unbroken, your hearts unpolluted, and bless all your so cial intercourse, and render you by it better Sued for future use fulneu and greater success. And, when you are called to scenes of labour, and peril, and trial, and temptation, oh ! may he give you large supplies of his grace. make you faithful unto death, and at length bestow upon you the crown of eternal life ! Farewell, beloved brethren, farewell—the GOD of love and peace be with you !"—World. Tuesday morning, the residence of Mr. Bramah, on Tooting-common, was broken int' and plundered of pro perty, consisting of jewellery, plate, and clothes, to the amount of nearly 400/. It appears that Mr. Bramah had a party at his house on the preceding day, in consequence of which the plate used on the occasion was not deposited in its usual situation, but the greater portion left on the sideboard, and on the dinner-table in the parlour, where the company had partaken of supper. From the manner in which the house was entered and the robbery effected, it was evident the thieves must have been well acquainted with the localities of the premises; and this supposition was strengthened from the circumstance of a gold watch, value one hundred guineas, having beeu carried off, which had been placed in the drawer of a bureau—a place of concealment that no person knew of, except those who had access to the house, and were acquainted with the depositary in question. At an early hour on Tuesday morning three suits of old clothes, together with hats and shoes, were discovered in a green lane not far from Mr. Bramah's house, to which place, after the robbery was committed, the thieves had repaired, changed their shabby garments, and dressed themselves in the fashionable suits which they had obtained in a similar manner to the other booty. On the same spot were found the remains of some chickens and ham, and some empty wine bottles, which had been taken from the parlour of Mr. Bramah's house. On Wednesday, the robbery was discovered in the following manner :—On that morni►►g, three fashionably dressed men went on board a Gravesend Steam Packet at the Tower, to proceed to that place. On board, their conversation was of the most ,low and vulgar description; and having partaken very freely of bottled ale, &c. they soon got drunk, and were put to bed ; one of them, however, before he fell asleep, took a gold watch from his fob, and handing it to the Steward, begged he would take care of it till he gut ashore. The conduct of the men—the money they dis played, and lastly, the circumstance of such a valuable watch as that placed by one of them in the hands of the Steward for safety, excited an apprehension in the mind of a gentleman named Bigg, that the three men were thieves, and that the money and valuables they displayed were the proceeds of some robbery, caused them to be taken into custody on his own risk, and they were locked up in separate cells at Gravesend. One of them, a man named Budd, in the course of the afternoon, mantle a full confession, in which he gave a long and particular account of the robbery of Mr. Bramah's house, and stated that on, of his accomplices (Knight) had formerly lived in the ser ' vice of that gentleman as footman. These facts having been made known to the Magistrates at Union-hall, Craig, an officer of that establishment, was dispatched to Gaves end yesterday, for the purpose of bringing the three men in custody to town.
