He :ed, that on the '27th of March, about half past 'ye, he was going home to his house in Duke , St. George's Fields, when he met the prisoner the corner of Fleet-street. She asked hint for !y, and he gave her three half-pence ; not Elan d with that, she took Ws watch and gave it to a. in waiting. The man stabbed him in the groin, ran away. J. Bofland, the constable, proved charge.—Guilty. Mary Hai*, a young married woman, was inclic ' for stealing, priva.e.y, in the dwelling house of lel Northwood, 37 guineas, 1.1 half guineas, 67 shilling pieces, nine dollars, 113 half crowns, tillings, 33 sixpences, and tO nne pound bank ; ; all the monies of the said Samuel Northwood. appeared, from the evidence ef the prosecutor his wife, that the prisoner lodged in their house, 'ign of the Old Parr's Head, rslington ; and has.- different periods lost large sums of money in an .ountable manner, suspicion at length fell on the Iner. In order to discover if their suspicions well founded, the wife of the prosecutor, on the ling of the 28th of March, left two marked half awns in her pocket by the bed side. About an hour ierwards, she got up to examine her pockets, when missed the marked money. However, as it was late, the prosecutor did not take any steps that to find out the thief, but, the next morning, he for a constable, and went to the prisoner's room, :h was immediately over that of the prosecutor's, told the prisoner that having lost so much money late, he had occasion to suspect her, and desired to :h her pockets. The prisoner with great alacrity tptied some trifling articles out of her pocket, and dared she had nothing else to produce. The officer 'rig searched her pockets himself, immediately ;ht forth the identical half crowns, which had marked and left in Mrs. Northwood's pockets fight before. A box in the room was also searched in which was round a large quantity of silver, a number of guineas, seven shilling pieces and one pound bank notes, on two of wnich the pro-1 tor had written his name. Mason, an officer of Worship -street, proved the lg of the marked half crowns in the prisoner's 1, and the other monies mentioned in the in tent. Loan CHIEF BARON, in summing up the evi , observed that the capital part of this fell to the id, as it did not appear that the prisoner stole to money mentioned in the accusation, at one and the crime, therefore, if the Jury were of )n that the evidence adduced brought home the u . stealing to the prisoner, amounted only to larceny. Jury found the prisoner only guilty of stealing tali crowns. ;ma! Humphries was capitally indicted for burgla ' entering the dwelling -house o► Esther Kinzey, 24. th or October last, with intent steal, and ig therein two feather beds, two bc) . 7:ters, six its, two pillows, and three counterpane s , the perry of the said Esther Kin7ey. burglary was committed by two men, one of Michael Brady, was tried and convicted at the :ember Sessions ; the other having eluded the 'ice of the police, had not been brought to justice. Prisoner was- lately apprehended on suspicion of the accomplice of Brady, and was now put upon • appeared that Esther Kinzey is a maiden lady, nts several houses, which she lets out in lodg gentlemen and families, who have not a fixed idence in town. In the month of October Last, she Tied a house in Southampton-row, Bloomsbury, .h, however, at that time 'was not occupied by •rs, and she took up her residence therein. On •vening of the Y4th of October, about six o'clock, ft her house, having previously locked all the and in particular doubly locked the area gate, pun her returning again about eight o'clock the evening, she found the hall-door lying wide and the area gate was also in the same state. armed at this circumstance, she immediately .hed the house, and found the above-motioned •eperty had been stolen. James Sirnmoncis stated, that on the evening mentioned in the indictment, he observed two men, one a tall, and the other a short man, coming out Prosecutor's house, each carrying a large bun . their heads, like bedding. He followed them some distance down King-street, leading to Hol , when the shorter man threw down hisload upon ground. He pursued the other for some time, till came to the corner of Kingsgate-street, where he sight of him and his comp, ion. Joseph Feeling said, he had formed a public-house iaintance with Michael Brady, and Thomas.Hups about a year since. On the evening of the 24th . October, they came into his shop while he was. slumbering by his fire-side. He was suddenly aroused by something thrown heavily upon the shop floor.— Fre went out immediately and saw Brady and Hum phi ies ; the former having thrown a large bundle on the floor, the latter still having a package on itis shoulder. Brady asked witness if he would purchase some bedding, which, however, he begged tp decline under such suspicious circumstances. Humphries then called a coach to the door, and having put their bundles into it, they drove off. Witness, on looking at the Prisoner at the bar, declared that he could not positively swear that he was the person who came into his shop with Brady ; if he was the man, he was so much altered that he should pass him an hundred times in the street without being able to recognize him as the person who came into his shop, although he had seen him upwards of a dozen times before that night. The man at the bar was much shorter than the person who came with Brady. Matthew Matthews, the coachman, proved, that two men employed him to drive with two bundles on the evening of the 2WI October, to Broad-street, St. Giles, the one a short and the o ther a tall man, but he had no recollection of the prisoner at the bar. Foy, a police officer, was next-called, but he could not identify the prisoner at the bar. _ Mr. Jusiice•l.Awns:NcE summed up the evidence for the Jury, %clic found the prisoner Not Guilty. James Hari, a respectable looking man, was indict. ed for stealing a silver spoon, the property of Mr. Wright, of the Four Swans, Ilishopsgate-street. The prisoner came into Mr. Wright's coffee room, and had a glass of rani and water. The waiter had some sus picion of him, and watched him, seeing the spoon ly ing under his elbow. After some time he left the room, and the waiter missing the spoon, followed him and brought him back. The prisoner then took out his pocket handkerchief, and the spoon with it, which he threw away. Previous to his trial, the prisoner requested 'it might be postponed, as he had some iiiendswhom hewished to call to speak in his behalf. The Court, however,' refused to put. off his trial. In his defence, he protested that he had no inten tion of stealing . the spoon, but that he hal taken it up by accident with his pocket handkerchief, while he was '‘vriting a letter. The Jury found him guilty. Joke Presser was indicted for stealing various arti • des in the brush and turning business, to the amount of 10001. of Messrs. North and Frith, wholesale brush makers, in .Gracechurch-street, with whom the prisoner had lived as a coniideiatial servant upwards of twenty years. _ _ Mr. ALLEY stated the case, and expatiated upon the lenity of the prosecutors in not indicting the pri soner capitally, notwithstanding the great extent of the offence—a waggon load of their property being, then in the Court-yard, which had been found in the prisoner's shop. Mr. John Windshufile deposed, that the prisoner!, hid sold to him bed sacking, to the amount of 131. which he said he had received from a friend in the, country to dispose of, but witness having observed, upon it the mark of Messrs. North and Frith, shewed the sacking to the latter, who claimed it as the pro-' perty of the firm. Mr. Thomas Wells, a clerk to the prosecutors, proved the prisoner had confessed, that the sacking, was the property of his employers. Witness found in the prisoner's house in St. Catherine's, other pro perty to a large amount belonging to the prosecutors. The prisoner was found guilty. There were three other counts in the indictment, charging him with, stealing other prop:lly but they were nut gone into.) The RECORDER ordered all the property to be re stored to the prosecutors. The prisoner is 53 years of age. Samuel Norris and Jonathan Neale were indicted for breaking open the dove cot of William Pope, Esq. at Hotmslow, and stealing five dozen and four pigeons. They were found guilty- on the evidence of Anthony Griffen, an accomplice, who turned King's evitle Ice. It appeared that the pigeons were sold to a Mr. Jo nas Fox, who had a shooting match on thefullowing day, when they were fired at. Mirth./ Harrouri and Mark Brown were capitally indicted for burglariouslv breaking and entering the dwelling house of Charles Humphries, and stealing seven pieces of Irish linen, the property of Nicholas Humphries, on the '2Bth of February last. Nicholas Humphries, linen-draper, Church-street, Bethnal-green, deposed, that on Sunday, the 28th of February, he went to his shop at ten o'clock in the morning—did not residle in it, hut his two shopmen slept there—he saw the linen then in the shop—about eight o'clock' . the same evening heard -that sume thieves were taken, and some linen found with them, in the neighbourhoodof his shop—he went and found six or seven pieces were gone—the shop door was locked, and appeared iu the same way as he left it is the morning--he had seen the linen at the Police of fice, and knew it to be hia property. On his cross examination he could not swear posi tively that the shopmen had slept there—they had told him they had, and he had given them bedding for the purpose, but he never saw them in bed. Bernard Glee, one . of the patrole, deposed, that he was along with some other of the patrole,on the night of the 28th of February, between seven and eight o'clock—he saw the prisoner standing at the corner of Church-street, by the light of a lamp—he knew Harcourt, he had been in his custody before. As soon as Harcourt perceived him, he attempted to make off—witness followed him and seized him by the collar, on which he dropped two pieces of Irish linen—one of the patrole picked them up—Harcourt threw himself down on his back--the witness told him it was of no use, for he knew him—on which Har court made a spring,and got away from him—he pur sued, and, with the assistance of the rest of the patrole, secured, lim—he heard something drop, but the night was se dark that the witness could not see what it was. By this time, Valentine, another of the patrole, came up with the prisoner Brown in custody—they brought them to a public house and searched them, and found a key and a knife on Harcourt--on the next morning the witness searched where the prisoner Harcourt had dropped something, and found a skele ton key, which he hook to I*. Humphsies's shop. Mason, the police officer.. was in the shop—he took the skeleton key and tried it—it locked and unlocked the shop door with ease.. Witness 'produced two pieces. of linen, which Mr. Humphries identified' as proPerty. Valentine, a Ratrole, deposed, that when he 'saw Glierfollow Harcourt, he took Brown into ctn..

I`HE Advantage the Public mint always d er i ve from regittarly educated professional men directing Aim* exclasively their rewfies to one species of malady, was never more clearly demonstrated than by the unexampled nieces* which has attended the administration of their new remedy, and the extraor ditrary cures it has performed. Fur a long series of years, Mews. Connie And Co. Surgeons, formerly in his Majesty's service, hare made the Venereal Disease the particular object of their inveed nation, and are happy in havirg discovered a medicine superiorto mercury in the cure of that complaint; it is sufficient to observe that the erects of this remedy are diametrically opposite to thud! of mercury, for it completely eradicates every ve,rigedf the virus, In its most confirnud stages, yet it does not in aikido injure the constitution ; on the contrary, it renovates the system in all its natural fauctioes, promotes appetite, and facilitates di gestion : thus instead of reducing a stating and rigorous council don to the frigittSul condition that mercury does, it no only pre . serves that constitution in its primitive state, but restores a wish and debilitated one to ha natural strength aed vigour. Number less instances are on resent record of the superior efficacy of this medicine, its inherent and specific virtues acting as a perpetual corrective to bodily debility, whether proceeding from an excess of conjugal or illicit pleasure, or from the more insidious, thrush not less destructive, indulgence of incautious youth of both saes in a certain perniciaus habit. Amidst the melancholy variety at disorders which are the consequence of this solitary vice, there air none more aßlicting than that distressing state of debility and de ficiency which prevents or embitters the matrimonial state; the unhappy sufferer broods over his misfortune ' ashamed to seek re lief, until he is reduced to such a state of weakness as to render ' life oppressive. To such per it must be a consoling reduc tion to knOw, that they may now, by a new infallible mode of treatment, be restored to that greatest of all human blessings, a strong, manly and vigorous constitution.

MIDDLESEX SESSIONS. Tuesday these Sessions commenced, before W. MAINWARING, Esq. and a Bench of Justices. William Mason and Ann, his wife, were indicted for maliciously assaulting Miss Sarah Clifford. The De fendants live in Suffolk-street, Middlesex Hospital, and lit out lodgings to unfortunate females. Miss Clif ford hired a suite of apartments at the rate of two guineas a week, and had them nearly two months ; but from some cause or anothershe had orders to quit them ; accordingly she provided herself with other apartments in the same street ; and when she was in the act of taking away her trunks in the evening, Ann Mason put the candle to her face, and spit at her ; and her husband shook her violently. After that a watchman was called, who dragged the unfortunate girl to the watch-house, where she was charged with felony ; however, about two o'clock in the morning she was liberated on bail. _ _ Miss Wright, another Cyprian, and the Constable, proved the assault and false imprisonment. On the part of the Defendants it was attempted to be proved, that there was no assault, committed ; and that Miss Clifilird walked to the watch-house by her own soli citation ; but Bailey, the watchman, on cross.exami nation, said he could not swear that there was no charge given ; and that the young lady had given him 2s. (id. to set her at. liberty. Mason was fined 201. and his wife sentenced to 11 days imprisonment. John Lemon, a corn-chandler at Hackney, was in dicted for ass Ink ing William Keene on the 2.lth of October last. It appeared that Keene went to the defendant's shop, to ask for a small sum due to his master, when the defendant desired him to walk in, and began to pay him over the shoulders with a po ker, knocked him down, and said that if he had•a pistol he would shoot him. On the following morn ing, when taken htfore a Magistrate, he said to Keene, " It is a wonder I did not kill you, for I was drunk last night." He was found guilty, and the Court ordered him to pay a fine of 101. The case of Mr. Hughes, the bookseller, in Wim pole-street, v. the Hon. B.
