William Peck and John Willianu stood indicted for :tearing a silk pocket handkerchief, the property of Mr. William Johnstone, en the evening of the Sd of April - last, as the prosecutor was passing down the Strand, sear Temple 13 er.

Mr. ADOLPHUS, who appeared for the prosecution, said he should offer no evidence against Laweence,whoes fee should call as a witness against the other prisoners. Mr. Cole, who resides at 70, Neirgate-street, said. Prince had beep in his employ about three years as a wareboeseman; he was the sole publisher and proprietor of a work called the " Little Lexicon, or Multum in Parvo of the English Language," which sold for 7r. 6d. in good binding. George Rowley proved, that Mr. Cole paid 111131 3s. fur binding each of the Lexicons. Thomas Mason, a stationer, in Holborn, said, that a person, who, be understood, was Mr. Bolters bmther-in.law ' had sold him two, copies of the Lexicon for Ss. 6d. and four copies for Ss. William Lawrence was then called. He stated, that he wages, broker and appraiser at Walworth. Ile bad sold books, at different thweA to Bond, to the amount of ILOI. ; these books he received from Prince, and he understood from him that they were part of a stock that Prince had reserved for himself since Mr. Coin's disso lutlun of parmersbip w:th Hodgson and Co. Prince never ex pressed any apprehension about the busine.s, and he always ac counted to Prince for the money he received. He sod the first pat eel at le pd. per book, the second at 2.. and the third at 2s. 6a1.; the prayer books he sold to Bond at la. 3d. each; Prince always fixed the price he Was to demand from Bond. On hi. cross-examination, he said that Bond generaly paid him for the books in a public-house. Witness considered that Prince had stolen the books, from his saying that he had reserved them from Ilodgetni's stock ; and he had little doubt that Bond knew olio the books were stolen, foe they were brought to his shop in their paper parcels. Samuel )launder steed, that he was foreman to Mr. Colt ; the wont of the h4Olis produced in Court sold for 4s. 101 to the trade, and they were not pubished until after the dissolution of partner. ship with Hutlpon. In consequence of a communication being made by Rowley, winins obtaiued the assistauce of an officer and went to Enters -hop, where.they found fifty.four lexicons and seve ral prayer books.

Bond denied halting sold any to Mason, but called his butcher in. lasiedown stairs, who said that he had sold mime to Mr. Ratcliffe, bookseller in the Borough, and other persons. They then pro ceeded with Bond to Lawrvrce's house at Walwortb, and on see ing L.,wieuce, he confessed having received the books from Prince. Fauns Prince's situation, It was impossible for any other person to Lave stolen the property without his knowledge. Mr. Ratcliffe, a bookseller in the Borough, said that be delivered seveuty-one books to the officer, the whole of which he had bought from the prisoner Pond at es. 6d. each. Several other wiinessev deposed to hiving purchased books at d:fferent periods Loan the prisoner Bond.

John Litiletvoed was charged with the wilful murder of Edward Smith, on the 31st of December last. Mr. 31wunz briefly stated the case for the prosecu tion. The deceased had been the head gamekeeper oil Philip Cooke, Esq. of Owston, and had, on the day mentioned in the indictment; met with his death id cow sequence of is shot fired from the gun of a person of the name of Rushy. The prisoner t.-ad been in company with Rusby at the time, under circumstances of a sus. picious character. Rushy had made his escape, but tit, prisoner had been apprehended. • Thomas Gleddell examiner .—I am under gamekeeper to W. Cooke, of Ow ston ; and have been twenty years in his service.. I went out on Saturday evening, the 30th of December, about six o'clock, in company with the deceased, and a person of the name of Howe, to watch the game coverts of Mr. Cooke. Deceased was bead keeper. Deceased carried a double barrelled gun. Howe and I had each a walking stick. We remained ova all night. About halfspast six o'clock on Sunday morning l heard a gun fired at the distance of about three hundred yards from us. I awoke deceased, who was at that time asleep, and we all three went in the direction in which the shot was fired. When we got into the plantation we heard a rustling noise in the wood. We concealed ourselves, crouch ing down under a tree, the deceased standing is front, and Howe and I behind him, so that only de.' ceased could be seen. When the noise came heater we all rose, and just as Smith was getting up, I heard Iv shot goof, and he fell back in my arms, saying," Lona, I have mercy." The moment Smith tell 1 saw a rasa at the distance of a few yards; he pointed a gun at me and snapped it, but it missed fire. I closed with the ) man who had the gun, and called to Howe to come for ward. Howe came forward, and after a severe struggle we thr. w the man down, and secured him by tying his hands and legs with handkerchiefs. That man was the prisoner. I said to him," You intended to shoot me r, He answered, " No, it snapped when we were scuffling." On examining the gun 1 found that it WAS loaded. The prisoner refused to give his name, and said," Lortahave mercy upon my poor lather and mother, they have trouble enough with my brother James." I then knew that he was John Little wood. Cross-ex im ned by Mr. Juries —When the gun went off, deceased was close before witness, and Howe close behind him. He supposed th a the shot was fired at , the distance of three yards from Smith. When the pri soner snapped the gun at witness, the muzzle was with- I in a foot of witnessla body. lle would not swear that the next day lie did not tell Mr. Workman - that the gun was unloaded. William Howe stated, that on the night of the 30th of Dec. he bad gone out with the &Allied and last witness to watch' the game coverts. Witness give the same detail of the manner in which cue deceased met his death as last witness. Witness did nut see the prisoner point his gun at theldell. Cross-examined—Witness remained' in company with Gleddell until eight o'clock, and heard hint say nothing about the gun being snapped at him. If the gun had been snapped, witness thought he must have heard it. William \Vorkman.—l reside at Alwick.le-street, and am a high constable and clerk to the magistrates. In consequence of information which I received, I went on Sunday, December ZOth, to the public-house where the prisoner Littkwood was. I asked him what had induced him to commit so rash an act ? and he said it was not he who had done it. I said "Ifit Is not you, it Is your gun." Ile repled, " No, find my gun loaded." The pri• sorter was then taken to Doncaster Gaol. !went with bins put of the way, and before I left I searched hint. I found on his person a copper powder•flask partly filled with gunpowder, and some shot. I then vet nt to the house where the body of the deceased was lying, and there found a loaded guts. the pan was down and the lock at half cock.. I then went to the :pot where Smith had been shot. I found the marks of footsteps which 1 traced horn the spot to the house of John Husby. In that house I found two guns, one of which was loaded. and had apparently been so for some time. The other gust bad the appearance of having been re cently discharged, and had fresh marks of blood upon the muzzle, and stock, and ramrod. I then searched the house, and found a pair of shoes with large nails in the soles, and covered with dirt.— The shoes cotrespantled exacay with the footmarks leading front the spot where Smith bad been shot. On the Thursday following the prisoner sent fur me, and said that he was very sorry that be had not told the truth at once. lie said that he was very sorry for what had occurred, but that it had been Rushy who bad shot the deceased. Cross-examined—l saw Gleddell In the course of the Sunday.— Gird&ll did tint say that the pismire had snapped bis gun at him. On the conteary, lie insinuated that it was the prisoner's gun which had shot the deceased. ft was nut until we had found Mit that pri soner's £llll was haaded that Gleddell said anything about its being snapped at him. I think the prisoner's gun was not in such." state that it could have been fired. I have known the prisoner 14 or 15 years, aud as far as 1 know, be is a quiet, good tenapered man. I never heard any complaint against hint until the present. The gun which had been taken from the prisoner was produced. It had been cleaned, and the trigger was drawn in Court, in order to ascertain whether it made much noise. it very distinct sound, which might have been beard at a distance of 20 yarns, followed the experiment. • Witham Mason stated, that he had accompanied Mr. Workman to the home of John Rushy. Witness remained outside to hold Mr. Workman's horse, and while there he saw John Rusby, the younger, running away. Witness followed Rusby for some distance, bet at length lost sight of him. Mr. William Ilulbrey, of Doncaster, surgeon, deposed, that he had examined the body of the deceased Edward Smith. lie found a mortal gun-shot wound which bad entered the left breast, and taken the direction of the heart. From the direction, witness thought the shot must Is ice been fired from some one taller than the deceased, or that deceased had been kneeling when he received thewound. That wound had been the cause of the deceased's death, The confession which the prisoner hail made before the Coroner was then put in and read. In it, the prisoner stated that he had gone out with John Rushy to Mr. Cooke's plantation to shoot pheasants. Rushy shot one, and soon after prisoner saw the flash of a gun, and perceived two men come towards him. He at first thought t hat they had shot Rushy, and suffereil himself to be quietly taken. - - - - The prisoner, when called upon for his defence, simply asserted that he had known nothing about the death of Smith until that event had taken place. Mr. Baron Htn.Locx stated to the Jury, that before they could convict the prisoner of the crime of murder, they must feel convinced that he had gone out with Busby with an understanding that they were to oppose to the last extremity any one who might resist therr.— In such a case the act of one would be the act of all. But if they thought that the prisoner and Busby had gone out meiely for the purpose of killing game, with- out any concerted d. sign of resistance, then the act of Rushy could not be eisite.fon she prisdni.r. The Joey. witboot hesitation, returned a verdict of Not Guilt,. The . prisorisr was then put to the . bar on an indictr went, charging him with being out. armed with a guai, on the, might of the 80th 4.f December,..with intent to kill game. On this charge also the prisoner was found Aot MONMOUTH, Aram 9. Mt:mom—Sarah Jones, aged 26, was indicted for ihe wilful murder of her nee' born female child, at Bas salleg. Mary Jones was also indicted . fur aiding and as si tt My. A bill of indictment had also been jreferref against Thomas Jones and John Flock, for being eon. cerned in the murder, but the Grand Jure hid ignored the bill. The two prisoners, with Thomas Jones, the elder priscuter'slrusband, lived in a cottage at Bassalleg, sear Sir Chortles Morgan's seat. The appearance of the younger poisoner Arad attracted the notice of several of her neighbours, who communicated .to. her their sus picions thai she was in the family way; but theini denier denied it, and said she had the dropsy. Flock, the rrfan before mentioned, had often been seen in her company. On Monday, the 23r1 October, she was taken ill, and her appearance indicated tt at slit had been re cently delivered of a child. On the following Wedne,.. day, when some of the female witnesses saw her, her shape was greatly altered, and she was much thinner than at the time' she was ch.rged with being pregnant. On the2Bth October, Peter Potter, a gamekeeper to Sir C. Morgan, found a bundle tied up in a pocket handker chief, in the cart house. In the handkerchief bas a piece of sacking sewed upon three sides,withlong stitches ;Ite undid part of it, and saw the flesh of an infant; he tied it up, put it in .the same place, and went tik:Floole, who is a labourer udder him in Sir C. Morgaa's employ, and brought him to The cart; he took up the parcel, and they went together to the psisoner's house,,ani found the father and the two prisoners in the• room down suits; Flook laid it down on a chair, and Potter said to the mother, "Do you take it, and' let it be buried like a Christian. and not like a dog she took up the parcel, but seemed not to know what he meant; he said, "Take it out, and you'll know what I mean r she felt it round before opening it, and said, raising hei hands, " I newer knew. nothing of it before;" Potter said, 4 , If she did not, her daughter 'did," and then left the room. The daughter all this time was silent. in the course of the evening the child was placed in a box, and carried by the father and brother of the younger prisoner to the churchyard, and there buried. The circumstances, however, got to the ears of the Coroner, ho had the body taken up. and the parbes taken into' custody. Mr. Brewer, a surgeon of Nevrpdrt, who ex amined the body of the child, said he found two cuts in its throat; one about three inches in length, and one Inch in depth. The jugular vein and ',amid artery were nearly divided. The wounds were quite sufficient to cause death. The child had come to maturity. and thete was every appearance Uf .its having been born alive. He had examined the younger prisoner, and thought she had been lately delivered. Shortly befcire the Inquest was held, two females, named Sarah Jones and Maigniet Kenvin, visited the prisoner, and to them the ptisoner confessed she had cut the child's throat, and that tin one but herself and John Flook knew anything about i , .—Flook and Thomas Jones, the younger, had been bound over to give evidence, but IN hen called, did not appear.—The ptisoners, in their defence, said they were innocent, and called a witness to character. Mr. Sergeant BOSANQUST summed up the case. and the Jury found Sarah Guilty, and acquitted Mary Jones.—Sentence of Death was then passed upon Sarah Jones, and she was ordered for etecution on Wednesday.

Janes &Winn, a letter-carrier, at the General Post Office, was remanded on a charge of stealing a letter containing a A'S Bank of England note and an Oxford Xi note, the property of Mrs. Anne Herbert, a Lady residing In Jesus College-lane, Oxford. MANSION-HOUSIL A curious case was brought forward in the Justice-room yester-, day, before Sir Perth Leonia, who sat for the LORD Mown. Sir. Hudson, a.Freeman of the City, and the writer of s a great number of comic soup, stated to the Alderman that he had sr application to make, upon what be was informed was capable bring remedied in some measure by a law of local operation in the City of Linton, but of very ancient date, and seldom acted upon. He was the author of five hundred or six hundred comic loop, many of which, whatever might be their merit, had been re. ceived by the public with some degree of approbation. Of these songs he was in the habit of making sale, in the first instance, to dramatic performers, and afterwards to publishers, sad the profit he derived from a great number of them was considerable, until a sort of piracy was established, which he did not know how to combat with, until he heard that he cotild be assisted birdie City Authorities. The moment Mr. Cietnend, or any ether high musical publisher .eat torah one of the songs to the towu, a number of tin " twopenny halfpenny," or '• Cag publishers, advertised it at a fourth of the price set dodo by th'e holder of the copyright. This example was followed by a Lill lower order of publishers, who were in the habit of uniting interests with ballad singers, and the song was bawled about the streets in a suing with owl others, until the public were quite disgusted with it—(a laugh). lie knew that there was an effectual way of putting an end to this practice, it the pirate happened to be reVectsble, but, unfortunately, the exprine to which an unhappy maim . would be subject by a pro ceeding in Equity, or in any of the Courts of Law, was so great, that, except the defendants happened to be worth powder and shot, destruction would ensue. Under those circurtistautes, Mr. Hud son requested that at all events something might be dome to prevent the dishunourablesort of publication alluded to, as these who were in the habit of dealinewith him felt considerable hesitation at the idea of purchasing, when they were sure of a companion In some musical beggar—(Laughter). Sir Pavia Leuaia said that nothing could give him greater plea sure than the power of protecting the applicant, whom he knew to be a man of great merit. lie considered that a song was literary propary as well as a poem, although the latter description of wel ting was not, he believed, sung about the streets since the days of durner—(A laugh). If there existed any Act by which service could be rendered to a man of genius under such circumstances, he certainly should resort to it for the benefit of such a person. Sir. Hoseaa said, he apprehended that there was no law to prevent the vocal retailing ot soup. In the Acts for the punish ment of rogues and vagabonds, minstrels were not mentioned as coming under that denomination. Parliament seemed to have especial regard for minstrels, and gave them great privileges. A Member even declared in the House 9 1 Commons one night, that Punch must be protected—(Laughter). Sir. Hudson said, It was toe hardline an author's brains should be at the command -of every publisher, whose circumstances placed hint beneath the teach of the law, and who, was on the 6eli out for everything that was convertible into pence, however brinrious to the proprietor. • . Mr. Hostas adeised,that a civil proceeding slisaufd be adopted. If one crow were shot ' all the other crows would /4.o:mew quarters. Mr. Hudson said, the remedy was u bad as the disease ; the protection of Chancery would cost him se3o. • He Well knew the desperate evils of a Court of Eqeity.er Justice. Sir. P. LAVIUR said, that there could not.be a !meet judge if an opinion were tan formed front the applicant's long, called " Law," which was bawled, about the town from morning till night. " I think, Mr. Hudson," said Sir P. LAURI; " you had better follow your own advice, end have nothing to do with the law ; foe those who live best by it will certainly revengethenuelen epos you." Mr. Hodson assured Sir Pates, that the injury he sustained was molt sCriDIRS. A Publisher bad pirated the very sang just mehtioned, for *filch Mr. elemmti had paid Hudseit) fifteen guinea.; And as the pruhtl of the putthoser course greatly dimiul•Med, any future effort of the mux, can be called, must fall ht pn.porthin.—(a laugh).
