I PP' LAW. BUSINESS OF THE COURT OF KING'S BENCH. The Court of King's Bench, Westminster Hall, will not be ready for the reception of the Lord Chief Justice before the 30th, when his Lordship will sit in Iliddleser. This day his Lordship heard common Jury causes at Guildhall, London, and take special Juries on the 17th. The first special Jury cause appointed for trial at Guildhall, slur. in; the Sittings before Michaelmas Trim , is the case of Boddington v. Trower, which involves a question respecting the right of the plaintiff to a large quantity of brandy, now locked up in the London Dockr The cause has been in Chancery. DUBLIN, Oc;n - 6. There has been some clue found to the discovery of the British mall lost between Dunmore and Waterford some time back. It' is stated that the bag contained notes and post bills to the amount of 4,000 f. besides letters and papers of great value. On Wednesday morning a woman presented a bank post bill to be changed at the shop of a publican in Waterford. The publican took it to the bank to be - changed ; the cashier discovered it to be one of the bills of the lost mail. The woman was detained, and she says she got the note from a person confined in the city gaol of Waterford. The parties were confronted, and prevaricated; the man at length said, that be found.the mail bags on the road, and he had burned every thing contained in them but the bill in question. The ponce doubt this statements and considerable hope', are entertained fur the reco very of at least a considerable portion of the property. A poor man, of the name (1,1 .11n Bionic, residing at Clifton, near Halifax, was a kw days ago taken beim e a Magistrd-,chirged with tiespassing, by entering a field. He was fined 6J. with 9s. 61 costs ;. and being unable to pay, was s:at to Wakefield House of Correc tion for a month. Satneday evening, as a French Gentleman, whose more is De Flong, residing at the West-end of the Town, was driving a horse and chaise along the New road, the horse took fright nearly opposite Goa er-street, in consequence of a boy flying a kite in the road, and came in contact with one of the Paddington stages with so great a force as to overturn the chaise. M. de Flong was thrown out and the wheels passed over his legs.— He was conveyed to Middlesex Hopital, where it was ascertained that his legs were broken. A most melancholy accident occurred on Wednesday morning, near the Gas Company's Works, on the north wall, Dublin. Three young females, two of whom were returning from furnishing their father with breakfast, were employed in gathering cinders, when a wall, be• longing to the Company's works suddenly gave way, in consequence of the pressure of coals inside. The three unfortunate girls were in a moment buried under the ruins, Irons whence, after some time, they were dug out, but in a most mangled state ; their skulls being flatten ed in, their limb: broken, and life extinct. The eldest of them was only IG years of age. At a meeting at the Guildhall of York, on Tuesday, the case cf Mr. Pardee, a most active police officer, who is threatened with a promotion for having discharged his duty faithfully, was brought forward.and concluded the business of the day. It appears that a burglary having been committed, in the vicinity of the city, he made such inquiries relative to the same as the case re quired. The result of those led him to search a certain house of ill fume, ift which was a certain Gentleman, who bad made a present of a pair of spring garters, &c. to a certain Lady there, and those garters were in a sealed packet, which Mr. Pardoe thought it his duty to break t pen. Ile did so, and the consequent exposure so dread fully displeased the donor, that a threatened prosecir tion is the consequence. The Lady Abbess has, how• ever, since entered into the matrimonial state, and left the city. Mr. Pardoe, as the public officer, will be indemnified by the Corporate Body, and•reost likely the certain Gentkman alluded to will be wise enough to drop all further proceedings, and thereby avoid more unnecessary exposure. FINE ARTS.—The tricks of dealers and the better taste acquired by travelling, and a more free access to collections at home, have gone far to put an end to the ignorant passion which once prevailed with respect to old pictures, worm-eaten and defaced, and which led to the grossest imposition of every description of rogue, y to suit this gullible fancy. A picture in good repair used to be held in contempt—it was valued according to the ravages et time ; or such as appeared to have been the effect of time; which gave great facility to knavish dealers, as nothing is so easy as to cover a painting with dirt, smoke, disfigure, and deface it. However, it was esteemed accordingly, and the affected connois seur was with Foote's Virtuoso, who, when he was told that his statue had no nose, exclaimed, " Nose! d—d de nose—if it had de nose, itswould nut be wort a farding 1" KNIGHT•EIIRANTIEY IN YORK.—Thursday evening a party of friends having met at a public house, in York, amongst them were a master tailor and a master sad dler, who, in the course of the evening, fell into dispute, when the tailor called the saddler "a hone milliner," and the saddler, in return, called the other " a knight of the thimble."—The parties became moch irritated, and the result was a challenge to settle the affair with pisibis, at the distance of ten yards. This being ac cepted, the place fixed on was Foss Bridge, the time half-past nine. The seconds having loaded the pistols with blank cartridges, the parties took their stations.— On the signal being given, the saddler pulled the trigger, but his pistol only fl4shed in the pan. The tailor im mediateiy fired, at the report of whose pistol the saddler took to his heels, leaving the knight of the thimble master of the field. Friday the new bailiff's of Bridgenorth, W. Coley and Charles Clarke, Esqrs. were sworn into office, and on that day gave a most sumptuous entertainment to a numerous party of friends. The two Membrrs for the Borough were present; .also W. L. Childe, Esq. Major Bridgman, Thomas Whitmore, jun. Esq. James Foster, Esq. Counsellor Ryan, and a great number of other highly respectable Gentlemen, many of whom, with several other persons, were made burgesses on the above day. A ludicrous event took place in the course of the evening :—Mr. Coley, as Chairman. having called on Mr. Alderman Boucher, the Vice President, to send up . a toast which had been given by a Gentleman who sat ileac e Vice, but had not reached the ear of the Chair mall, the President, after a short time had elapsed, sent a ) ocng waiter down to the Vice, requesting him to send up the toast. The waiter, mistaking the purport of the message, hurried down to Mr. Boucher': house, which is no small distance from the Guildhall, and almost breath less, addressed Mrs. Boucher with—" Madam. I'm come for the toast." Mrs. Boucher—" What toast, my boy?" " I conna say what toast, but the Bailey sent me down for it, and it must go up in a minnit." Mrs. Boucher—" Surely, my b oy, you have made a mistake." " Indeed, Madam, I hanna, for I run all the way." Mrs. Boucher—" I ant fearful you are mistaken in your errand, my boy, and would advise you to run back." " Well, Madam, I'll go back and see." It is needless to observe, the toast had passed long before the waiter returned. The White,part Inn, Winchester, together with the house adjoining it, and the Town Hall, narrowly escaped destruction by fire on Saturday evening. ROBBERIES AT LIANIMERSMITII. Thursday night, the back part of the premises of Mr. Read, the proprietor of the Circulating Library, Dor ville's-row, Hammersmith, were entered and robbed, amongst other things, of fourteen 10-045, several geese, &c. the robbers leaving the heads of the fowls behind they being what could be sworn to if left appended to the fowls, while the stript bodies are not so easily cognizable. From the footmarks that were traced, the same robbers that night also en eyed the premises of Mr. Dowding, a few doors off, and stole some saddlery; and they afterwards attacked the back premise; of Mr. Greenhough's, a tinman. The same robbers, judging from the footsteps that were subsequently tracked, next went to Mr. Kramer's, a huge, new, and newly inha bited house in Montague-place, fronting Mr. Scott's park at Hammersmith (Ravenscoort-house), and stripped the lower premises, carrying .'ff sheets, blankets, &c. Friday night, Mr. Jessnpp, the Clerk of the Roads, and occupying one of the Duke of Devonshire's farms at Little Salton, which' is at the further corner of Turn ham-green, and attached to his brace's residence at Chiswick, was robbed, and five good fat sheep, &c. cat ried off. And on the same night, the gardens of Mr. Mountain, 5, Hammersmith Terrace, a little lower down from NU. Jessopp's on the banks of the Thames, a pace celebrated as oace having been the residence of Louthei hourg, the painter, were stripped of the grapes, pears, &c. and in the day-time, somebody got into the boust of Mr. Bishop, No. 8, on the same terrace, and stole Mr. B.'s gold watch, value fifty guineas, which lie had only a short time previously placed in the parlour. The thieves also broke into one of the houses on Theresa Terrace, opposite to Mr. Kramer's at Hammersmith. I Twenty-four large mules have been landed at South ampton, from Caen, in Normandy, part of a contract for the India Company's service. Snow fell on Bushey Heath, Herts, on Thursday. _ The " Boots" at the Three Tuns Inn, Newcastle, de camped a few days ago, robbing the hostler of 125/. The chillness and fogs of the morning should be care fully guarded against by the invalid, as being very un wholesom sufficient opportunity being afforded for exercise during the sunny past of the day. There will be large crops of late potatoes in the West of England, but they are generally watery. The best red kidneys are now selling, near Shaftesbury, at ss. for the sack of 2 cwt. A few days since a man, dressed as a sailor, presented himself at the country house of Mr. Alderman Lucas, in Kent, and stated that he came from Capt. Todd, of the Indi.t House, to announce the arrival of three cases of preserves, and a grey parrot, from India, as presents for the Alderman. The sailor was immediately sheen into the kitchen, where he fared sumptuously. The Alderman wrote a note to the Captain, requesting to know who the present was from, and when he should send for it. The fellow, as he was about to leave, said he had been out all night, and expended " all the shot from his locker ;" would his Honour lend him a few shillings? The Alderman, now believing him to be an impostor, sent him before a \tagivrate, where, on search ing him, a number of letters were found, which proved that he had cheated the maj 'rity of the families residing about• Blackheath, as well as persons in other neigh bourhoods, by pretending to be the hearer of such ac ceptable intelligence. Tne letters were of thanks for the information, and promises to send carts, &c. to the Docks, to take away the presents. He had doubtless fared well, and got some money at each place as a reward. He had vert inget►iouJy adapted the presents to the taste of the parties; to the curious in natural history he bad given collections of shells, stuffed birds, &c. to the maiden ladies he had given parrots, and cats of extreme rarity and value; and, in the present in stance, he thought he had lit the taste of the Alderman, by the present of the Indian preserves, and of his L 'sly with the grey parrot. He was commided as a rogue and vagabond. FLAX.—The largest crop of wheat ever produced on the lands cf the Rev. Mr. Yeatinan, of Stock-house, Dorset, (in the memory of an old farmer, who broke it up some years ago irons an bid pasture,) was grown this year, after a flax ctop4.and this farmer says he can even now perceive where the flax was laid last year from the great quantity of grass. An instance of words syrulnymous in sound, but dis similar in signification, lately came under cognizance: A person in constant fear of bailiffs, having absconded, one of his acquaintances was asked the reason of his ab sence? to which he replied, " Why, Sir, I apprehend he is apprehensive of being apprehended." THEATRICAL RECOLLECTIONS.—The charge to a performer fur the house on I►is benefit was, in Sir. Gar rick's time, 601.; the charge now, at both winter the atres, is upwards of 2001. The highest weekly salary was then twelve pounds, which was the sum the inimi table Garrick received from the treasury. Actors and singers, at that period, instead of riding in their own carriages, walked on foot, and many of them followed trades and professions. Packer is as a saddler, in Vigo lane, near Burlington-gardens ; Parsons and Burton, landscape painters ; Aicken kept a hosier's shop in York street, Covent-garden ; Davis, a bookseller's, in Great Russell-street; Bransbey, a hatter's, in Shire lane ; Mrs. Pritchard, the Mrs. Siddons of her day, e masquerade warehouse; John and Robert Palmer, in the morning, in the early part of their lives, went sound the town to paste up the posting bills, and tl.e former was, in the evening, a favourite performer, and so general an actor, that he is said to have studied more MS. parts during his theatrical life, than would have loaded a cart drawn by two horses; Dibdin was one of the carpenters of the' house; and the laugh-provoking Tom Weston was, to the day of his death, one of the turnspits in the Royal kitchen at St. James's. The theatres at the above pe riod were of so moderate a size, that every part of the audience could distinctly hear and see. Mr. Garrick frequuitly asked his treasurer, Johnson (who was, by the by, the best Gibby, in the Wonder, that ever ap peared on the stage, and the only character he ever played), if the receipts of the house amounted to " three figures," meaning 1001.; yet with such moderate re turns the theatres flourished, and the proprietors realised ample fortunes. DARING ItOREERY.—Last week, Mr. HUTCHINSON, a Gentleman residing at No. 6. Hlghbury-park, was rubbed in the most daring manner, in the public-road leading from Islington, as early as half-past three o'clock in the afternoon. He was hustled by several persons, one of whom nude a snatch at his watch. The pull was so sudden and violent, that a link of the gold chain broke, leaving the watch safe in the fob, and the villains made off with the chain, a gold seal, and a key. The whole passed so qaickly, that Air. liclasnisoat had not time toobserve his assailants, who were in an instant out of sight. THEODORE HooK being asked whether the infant child of a very weak father did not carry a corresponding likeness ? replied, " I am not so great a physiognomist as to know whether the father is like the child; but this I !snow, there is &great deal of ' the child in the father." - POLICE INTELLIGENCE% GUI I.DIIALL. Thomas Rayner and Joseph Bishop were charged with stealing a piece of pills value 101. Charles Herdsfield, the officer, stated that he saw them in company with a third lad on Saturday, opposite the Manion-house, and having some suspicion, he followed them through various streets, until they came to the shop of Mr. Ler mott, a mercer, in Aldgate, where they broke a pane of glass, and drew the silk through the aperture. lie was watching on the op posite side of the street, and when he saw them leaving the place, supposing they had accomplished their object, he crossed between the line of cal riages, but the third fellow disappeared in the mean time. In the hope that the prisoneri would lead him to their ac complice, he followed them quietly till they entered the house of Iky Nathan, a noted receiver. He searched the premises, but could find neither their companion nor thiproperty.--Remanded. BOW-STREET. Helen Foley, alias Deity Flynn, alias Pegg Walsh, was charged with three felonies, and on each charge she was fully committed. It appeared that the prisoner, who is rather a well looking Irish woman, bas been carrying on a system of robbery and swindling to a considerable amount, considering the circumstances of those whom she has defrauded, as well as her own situation in life. In the month of August last, she went to lodge in the house of a country man of her own, residing near Pimlico, whose wife, learning that she was a stranger, just come from Ireland, treated her with the greatest hospitality and kindness, although both herself and her hus band were aware that she possessed no means of returning their civility. She, however, promised to repay them tenfold when her uncle, Dr. Foley, of Manchester-square, to whom she slid she came over on a visit, should return from Paris. Having thus completely lulled the suspicions of the hospitable couple, she commenced her work of depredation, by stealing several trifling articles, and ou the third night of her residence in the house of her too confiding coos. try man, she eloped with kis strong box, containing eight sovereigns and a half, the savings of7everal years, and having previously pos. sassed herself of a pretty considerable booty, consisting of wearing apparel and other disposable property, she immediately proceeded to Cork, her native city. Information of her misdeeds, however, having reached that place through the medium of this office, she was taken into custody about a fortnight ago, and transmitted forthwith, in charge of a constable, to the scene of her plunder. She was brought up last week, and underwent an examination on the charge of stealing the sovereigns, snd yesterday she was fully committed, there being two additional cases of felony against her. Yesterday James Frail was brought up on a charge of having ob tained money under false pretences from Mrs. Forde, who stated that she r.sided at Somers Town, and that the prisoner had repre sented himself to her as a Bow-street patrol, in consequence of which she entrusted him wi'h the management of three indictments at the last Session iii Hicks's Hall, he having promised not to cuarge more than the expeoses out of his pocket; hut before would undertake to do anything, he required the money in advance, and obtained from her 164. which he said would be the expense of three Bench war rants that were necessary for the occasion; but it turned out that instead of three he took out only one Bench warrant, which cost no more than Is. Mr. MINSHUI L said, that if he had told her that he had paid 16s. for the warrants previous to his receiving it from her, it would be sufficient to establish the charge, but as the matter stood, he doubted if he would be warranted in holding him to bail; hut aN there were 'other charges of a similar nature against him, he was remanded. MARLBOROUG H-STREET. Yesterday, Mr. S.nah, of Bond.street, appeared to a summons, for neglecting to attend with the charge•bouk, he being night con stable of St. James's. The case was only remarkable from the ob stinacy of the defendant, who, in spite of the Magistrates' advice, and in direct opposition to the Act of Parliament, persisted that hr had no right to attend, and preferred being fined 10s. and costs, to acknowledging his error, and paying Es. for his discharge. HATTON-GARDEN. Jane Minns, keeper of a lodging-house in White Lion-street, Islington, was charged on suspicion of having stolen two 1 0/. notes, which a lodger had left in her pocket under her pillow, and which the prisoner was seen to have in her hand while making ti:- bed. The prosecutor, who had left Leicester to improve herself in dress making, was Humid( destitute, and was recommended by the Ma gistrate to the Mendicity Society, and the prisoner was remanded. LAM BETEL-STUEET. Sara& Atkinson and Mary Hut net were charged by Mr. William Tiugey with having, under the mask of hospitality, robbed him of 4501. and his peace of mind. The complainant, although to all ap- pearance far gone "in the downhill of life," was not insensible to the kindness of the fair sex, and accepted the invitation of thy Ladies to one of their first rate establishments, iu the vicinage of Chick-lane. Here he found out that his companions were active as well as sleeping partners, and that at one fell swoop they seized the whole capital, and affected a dissolution of the firm. . The fair ones were remanded for a week, at the end of which, it is pre.-umed, the partnership accounts will b.: balanced, or the Ladies committed as defaulters. QUEEN-SQUARE. Dorothy (Veto'', who has been charged three times at this Office within a month, as disorderly, received a letter of recommendation to the Governor of the Tread-mill, to accommodate her fur 7 days. Yesterday two constables, followed by a multitude of persons, applied to the sitting Magistrates under the following circumstances: The constables stated that they had just taken into custody a man whom they supposed to belong to the sect usually de signated Ranters, with which Westminster abound.. The man in question, who said his name was satin Lewis, they found holding forth to the multitude in front of his Majesty's Palace at Bucking ham Gate, exhorting his hearers in a voice of thunder to " Praise the Loan!" sawing the air with both his hands in the most frantic manner; they at length interfered and took him away, and since beenhe bad in their custody his conduct had been so eau emely out rageous, that they thought he must either be drunk or mad, and con sequently not in a fit state to be brought before their Wonbips. The Magistrates ordered him to be brought before them, when on entering the office he exclaimed, in a voice which electrified his hearers, " here conies a man after Gon's own heart;' and taking off his hat he again vociferated, " this is the house of the Lotto, praise ye his name !" and fell prostrate on the floor of the office. A number of questions were put to him, but the only answer whirl could be obtained was " praise the L eaD !" while the wildness of his eye, and his vehement gestures, indicated too strongly that rea son bad forsaken the unhappy man; his noise at length became so deafening that it became necessary to remove him to the lock-up room until a medical man could be procured; he was some time after visited by a person, one of the faculty, who informed the Ma gistrates that he had no hesitation in saying that the man was de cidedly a lunatic ; be was accordingly ordered to be taken care of by the parish until he could be placed in an asylum for lunatics. He appeared a middle-aged good-looking man, dressed like a mechanic, and ,on his being searched,six and sixpence were found in his pockets. Yesterday, Mr. Thomas rule*, landlord of the Swan public. house, at Knightsbridge, was summoned by John Macdonald, a private in the 12th Lancers, who, it appeared, was billetted at the Swan. Last Thursday night he went to get a candle to go to the stable, which was refused by the landlady; complainant then in quired of the defendant's son whether his father had left orders for straw for the horses ? when he replied, that he had particular orders from his father not to give any. lie himself then applied to Mr. Knight, who also refused the straw. Defendant also told witness, that if ever he caught witness cooking his victuals in the kitchen, he would kick him out, and abused him most shamefully. Defendant here declared that he had never denied what was re quired till Thursday night. Complainant had burnt so many can dles, that he was refused at last; but still he, Mr. Knight, was sorry that there was a complaint for not furnishing the straw.— Defendant meant, however, to have moved the horses into his own stables en Thursday, and he had understood that complainant's co mrade would make the horses' beds do for that night. Mr. Gartman—This is a very Important case. You have cer tainly done wrong upon your own Mewing, and I shall fine you in the sum of five pounds and costs. Lieutenant Dewes, of his Majesty's Royal Lancers, who had entered the room during the case, observed, that as the barracks would shortly be repaired, it was necessary not to have the men billetted off the highway, as from the nature of their duty, they were required to be within call for the purpose of carrying off dis patches; the reason why the Colonel of the regiment had pressed the present case, was on account of the abuse the men received. Mr. Knight still entreated a mitigation of the penalty, as the present, he said, was his first offence. After some consultation with Lieutenant Dewes, the defendant was fined in the mitigated sum of 31. and costs. WORSHIP-STREET. Yesterday, a young woman named Ann White, was charged with stealing a quartern loaf, value 9d. the property of her master, Mr. Robinson, a baker, at Hackney. It appeared hs evidence, that the ptisoner, who had only been in Mr. Robinson's employ three weeks, arose rather earlier than the rest of the family on Sunday morning, and opened the shop herself. About nine o'clock a youth came into the shop, and told Mr. Ito- Dimon that some woman was weighing a loaf of bread that her son. bad bou;ht at his shop that morning s and that it turned wit tt, br ttliort tu weight. Mr. Robinson knew well he had >u , d nu bre a d that morning, and immediately went to the woman, when i t turned out that the prisoner bad sold the loaf before he was awak e , and had put the money into her ewn pocket, which she subsequently eonfessed t and told the constable where she had hid the money. She said nothing in her defence, and was fully committed rot trial, Query-.-Had she not stolen the money instead of the loaf ? UNION-HALL frity Burn'u,js, the female who, it will be recollected, under went an examination :t this Office, a week ago, on a charge of stare. ing her infant, was again brought before the presiding Magistrate; J. S. CALDWiLL, Esq. The defendant, on the former hearing, asserted that the child hi question was not her own offspring, imputing hers to have beet changed by the person whom she employed to act as nurse; the case was therefore postponed until yesterday, for the purpose of giving the Parish Officers of Lambeth an opportunity of bringing forward witnesses to prove the identity of the child. The Surgeon who attended the defendant during her acceuche ment, stated, that she was delivered of a male child on the 17th March ; and he, and several of the female neighbours who reside in the same street with Mary Burroughs, gave it as their opinion, that the child was the identical one of which she was delivered at the period abovementioned. _ _ _ The defendant still appeared doubtful on the subject, and re.: marked, that she should be more satisfied in her own mind, if Mary Linfield made oath that the child in question, was the same that she (Mary Burroughs) was delivered of, on the 17th of March. Mary Linfield then proved, that the child in question was the one of which she was delivered on the 17th of ,March; and she also swore, that she was not delivered of a child for a considerable time previous te the birth of the one in question. Mary Burroughs—Then I am perfectly satisfied that it is my child, and shall from henceforth pay it that attention which a child shc uld have from ha mother. She then produced a certificate from a Surgeon who attended her for some time subsequent to her con finement, which certified that she was labouring under very severe illeess. She added, that she produced this document in order to shew that she was unable to pay that attention to the child which it required, owing to her very bad state of health. Mary Linfield, the nurse, wished to take care of the child ; but Mary Burroughs said she would not part with it, and that now she was made a truly happy woman. A brilliant meteor was observed near Hinton Abbey, on Tuesday night, about eight o'clock. It passed from north to south, and finally disappeared in the milk? way, leaving behind a bright and beautiful stream of light, which continued for several minutes. GLAscow.—The proceedings of the Circuit Court of Justiciary closed on Monday sennight. The calendar was an unusually heavy one, considering that it was an autumnal Circuit ; there having been ni less than ninety persons tried, who were comprised in sixty cases. Three men have been condemned to buff. r death for assault and robbery ; 50 have been sentenced to transportation for various periods; sentence of outlawry has been pro• flounced against '2O; 7 ate to suffer irnprismatent, and 7 have been dismissed Iron the bar. A singular and au Jacious rohbery was committed in the City last Thursday morning, under the following curious circumstances :—Mr. üben Dear, a respect able butcher residing in Seymour-street, Euston-square, New-road, as usual, attended that morning at Nevegate market, leaving his cart and horse standing in Newgate street. After having made some large purchases of choice meat, which was nearly ail deposited in the cart, and during the temporary absence of the man'to fetch the last load, some dating villain eluded the vigilance ‘)f Mr. Dear, and drove off, without exciting the least suspicion, although the street at the time was crowded to excess. The consternation of Mr. De ir may be eae) , ima;zined, who appeared to regret more the loss of his favourite horse than the excellent supply provided for his numerous customers. Several friendi volunteered to detect the thief; one went down the Deptford-road, others to the various outskirts of the City, where it was possible he might be discovered in disposing of his ill gotten booty ; they however returned without success ; the f Bowing morning Mr. Dear heard that the cart (the wheel of which was b.ol:en) and horse had been found in Itose-street, Piccadilly, and conveyed to the Green-yard.
