ItaD -Tad Uri ASSIZE INTELLIGENCE. - BRIDGEWATER, Ave. 49. CaowN Sios.--Befort Mr. Sinwrir. _ _ The Jury found the prisoner Guilty. Sentence of death was then recorded against the pri soner; but it is supposed his punishment will be com muted into transportation for life. CORK ASSIZES, Aug. 28. John Charles Baynton was indicted for wilfully set ting fire to two ricks of hay, the property of Mr. James Emerson, of Bath Easton, in this county. Mr. GUNN Iwo conducted the prosecution, and Mr. En t. r. appeared for the prisoner. The case, as it appeared in evidence, was uninterest in but we learnt the following particulars from persons acquainted with the parties concerned : The prosecutor is a respectable mealman, and was in (limed to prefer this charge against the prisoner solely from motives of public duty. The prisoner is a young man of about twenty-six years of age, of most respect able connections; has received an excellent education, and began life with every prospect of good fortune. His extravagance, however, dissipated a considerable sum (said to be about four thousand pounds), of which he became possessed soon after coming of age ; and for a short time afterwards he quitted London, and resided in furnished lodgings in the parish of Box, in this county. While there, he became acquainted with a young woman, whose charms seem to have made a deep. im pression on his heart ; so that when he returned to London he suffered so severely from the effects of absence from her, that, to the injury of his future prospects, and against the wishes of his friends, he again quitted the metropolis, and paid another visit to the place in which the object of his affections resided. His attentions were received by the lady herself in a manner that seemed to promise him every happiness, but her friends were opposed to the union, and, at the strict command of her father, she wrote him a letter rejecting his further acquaintance. The terms of this letter, though affectionately kind,were too positive to admit of any doubt as to the writer's intention, and the unhappy young man, on the instant of receiving it, conceived the idea of self destruction. He wrote an answer communicating the agi tation of his mind to the lady, and adding that he had aban doned that thought, since its execution would have en dangered both body and soul ; but that he would commit an act which should make his life a forfeif to the laws ef his country, and which would free him from existence,while it left him at liberty to make his peace with Gon. With this feeling strong upon his mind, he went almost in stantly and purchased a phosphorus box, and then pro ceeding to the hay-ricks in question set them on fire ; while the flames were yet unextinguished he sought out a constable, confessed the offence he had committed, . and surrendered himself into custody ; he was taken before a magistrate, when he made a similar declaration of guilt. Qa being asked,, if he had any malice against the owner of the hay-ricks ? he answered in the negative, declaring that he had not even the slightest idea of his name ; and on being questioned as to the cause which had induced him to inflict such a loss upon the prosecutor ? he answered that he was tired of life, and that he had com mitted this offence in order to get rid of its burden. The prisoner was committed, and the prosecutor bound over in the usual manner. The case against the prisoner was made out by his own confessions, slightly corroborated by the concurrence of such other circumstances as had fallen within the observation of other persons. The de fence set up was, that the young man occasionally la boured under attacks of mental aberration. Mr. SELIV TN, who presided in consequence of the il'ness of Mr. Justice By RROUG it, told the Jury, that if they believed that there was evidence of the fact that the prisoner had committed the crime now laid to his charge, they must find him guilty, notwithstanding any pity which they might feel for him on account of the circums• stances which had brought him into that situation. The mere question of guilt or innocence was all that they had to decide; the circumstances of alleviation being properly the subject of consideration for those whose duty it was to declare the amount of his punishment. S LAN DER•••••BYNG AND WIFE V. CALLAGIIAN, M.P. This action, which has excited so much interest, went off without a trial. When the Jury were sworn, Mr. Sergeant GooLD, the leading Counsel for the defendant, Gerard Callaghan, Esq. rose and said—Be fore this case is entered upon, I .think it my duty to say that it is a case which ought not to be tried. I know the kindness and candour of my friend, the Solicitor- General, and I am sure that neither he nor any other person can conceive that Mr. Gerard Callaghan was the author of the slander for which this ,action was brought. I think, for the sake of the public time, and in consi deration of the feelings of all parties concerned, that the particulars of this case ought not to go before the public. After a few words from the SOLICITOR-GLNERAL and Mr. Justice TORRENS, Mr. Sergeant GOOLD proceeded—My Lord, it has been charged against Mr. Callaghan, in placards about the streets, in the public prints, and in every shape that the libel could gain publicity, that he was the author of these reports, and all he is anxious for is to clear himself from that dreadful imputation. The SOLICITOR-GENERAL said he was ready to meet his Learned Friend in the same spirit, and he was glad that the proposition was made before any of the pleatfiags had been opened. He wished, however, to know what the defendant was prepared to do ? After some further observations between the Counsel oc both sides, Mr. Sergeant GooLn said, that from mere credulity his client was unfortunately made the dupe of declarations against the character of Lady Agnes Byng, which he now believed to be utterly false. There was, he said, no man in the community now more entirely convinced of the atrocity, the wickedness, and the utter falsehood of the publications reflecting on the character of that amiable lady than Mr. Callaghan was; and he instructed his Counsel now to make that public declaration. And if it could be conveyed in any stronger or more appropriate language, he was ready to make it, or to do any thing else that might be thought satisfactory to the feelings of that interesting and respectable young lady, and of the gentleman who was her husband. The Souc lava GENERA L Was perfectly satisfied with this candid and honourable avowal on the part of the de fendant. Mr. Callaghan, who was in Court, expressed, in the strongest terms, his regret forhaving unintentionally given a moment's pain to Lady Agnes Byng or her husband, by appearing to credit a report so scandalously false. Mr. Callaghan disclaimed altogether having ever been in fluenced by political feelings towards any of the parties concerned. • Tile Learned Ju ix; E., after expressing his pleasure at the Amicable and.. honourable manner in which the action terminated, discharged the Jurv. PHENtiMENON.—Two higglers were the other day disputing'ovar their liquor, when, mach both, surprise of an honest old gentleman who happened to overhear it, one of them offered to by a score leas /!! that his assettion was true. 11 LONDON FASHIONS FOR SEPTEMBER. A Dumas Pa art Dana.—A dress of greed. Naples of a bright, rich red, between the ruby and the amaranth, trimmed at the border of the skirt with black phsche de-soye, or with velvet of a light and a silky texture. The corsage is made plain to fit the shape, and is encircled by a belt of black velvet. The head-dress consists of a beret of black satin, tastefully ornamented with white Abend, with satin stripes, the colour of the gown. Feather of the bird of paradise are disposed with much'iriegance, in detached plumage beneath the brim, whence they take a spiral direction towards the summit of the beret. Batt. Duns.—Over a white satin slip is a dress of white tulle, or crepe-serophane, with a broad trimming at the border, a a novel kind, in a honeycomb, of the tune material as the dress. This trimming is as remarkable for its lightness as for Its beauty; it is surmounted by detached bouquets of Provence roses. The body is made plain, and the sleeves short and fall. A beautiful bouquet of rotes, with a few sprigs of myrtle, is placed on the right side of the bust. The hair is arranged in ringlets, and slightly adorned with flowers, or with jewellery ornaments. Watsum Dasss.—A dress of white muslin, richly embroidered in points st the border; each of these points inclose the work by a very full ruche, formed of red tulle ; thus making a conspicuous Vandyck border of rich points. The dress is made high ; and though the body is slightly en grebe, it Is embroidered in a very splendid manner. A pointed zone confines it at the waist. The sleeves area la Mameluke, with bracelets of dark braided hair, fastened with a gold heart; alai's.* this bracelet is a cuff, in Van. dycked points, trimmed with a ruche of narrow tulle. A triple ruff of lace encircles the throat. The bonnet is of pale pink satin, and is trimmed .under the brim with loot and broad points of figured ribbon, pink and Spanish brown. Strings of the same kind of ribbon float over the shoulders. The frown of the bonnet is or namented with pink satin, en fers de Cheval, riffened, and ilk covering between the interstices full bouquets of pink fancy flowers, without foliage. Evaanina Dasss.—A dress of spritiggreen!crepe Aerophane, with a broad border beautifully painted in different but suitable colours to the green, so that good taste is not offended by the association of tints too glaring. The part next to the shoe consists in a pat tern of small spots of deep and rich red ; and over this, which forms a broad border, is a full but very delicate wreath of fo liage and flowers, somewhat resembling the barberry foliage and its fruit ; the leaves are, however, of a green, several shades darker than the dress. The body is hill a l'enfaut, and is made low, particularly at the shoulders ; but the bust is very deli cately shielded by a transparent tucker of tulle, edged by nar row blood, which draws across the lower part of the neck : from this three rows of blond form a falling tucker, divided from that which draws, by's narrow reisleas of yellow and red satin. The sleeves are a l'imbecille, confined at the Wrist by a bracelet, fas tened by a cameo. The hair is arranged "in curls on each side of the face, parted on the forehead, and short at the ears ; the curls are rather large. The bows of Bair on the summit of the head are arched, and ala serpent. Three puff's of green crepe Aerophane, tastefully disposed, constitute all the ornament. The ear-pendants are of gold, en Girandolea, and the necklace consists of two rows of gold chain, with large round links. Th e s h oes are o f sat i n , t h e colour of the dress. SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. TATTERSALL'S. The betting yesterday had some important results, the favourites, however, remaining steady, with the ex ce p t i on o f Si r Hercules, who is decidedly in better favour than on the last betting day. Fa vourable accounts have been received from the North respecting Frederick, who consequently regained his old place in the betting. Forth is very sanguine about the two horses, and declares it will take something more than common to beat them. There was a palpable decline in Gibbeson's two Lady Sarah and Wand e ring Boy, both of whom were wi t h out friends, although high odds were offered ; the cause of their going back did not transpire. The cup betting was confined to Zinganee, who was backed singly for the Cup, or for it and the Fitzwilliant Stakes conjointly, to a large amount. The odds were offered against the King's mare, but she was not backed. A busy and rather interesting day closed as follows : iv. USW 13 to 4 apt Lord Cleveland's Voltalre-7 to 2 taken 6 to 1 apt Mr. Petre's Rowton. 7 to I agst Lord Langford's Sir Hercules. 12 to 1 apt. Mr. Rididale's Clotilde. lit to I apt.

Zinganee for Fitswllliun Stakes and Cup—taken largely. Major Yarburgh's colt Pilgrim (brother to Laurel), who for some time was a good favourite for the St. Leger, has been taken out of training, having fallen lame; but for this we , have no doubt that he would have proved a clipper : he is a remarkable fun colt, and in his private running gave promise of great excellence. THE HUNGERFORD REGATTA. This most amusing of all regattas took place yesterday, and the benevolence of the inhabitant householders of the vicinity of Menge:ford-market enabled the residents of that "sweet" vieinky to partake not only of the amusements of the rowing match, but sundry other " recreations," such as climbing a greased pole fora leg of mutton, and others but only known and appreciated by the sweeps of the neighbourhood. The match was in three heats, between John Parry, James Dodd, Thomas Vokins, Edward Emery, Wilson Emery, Thomas Moody, • James Crawley, William Butcher, Thomas Williams. James 'Fagan, Pink. The first beat was cleverly won by Pink and Yellow ; the second by Green and Blue; and the grand beat between those four was rowed in really a vet y admirable manner, and the prize wherry was won by yellow. The other amusements continued until a late hour, and such was the confusion which prevailed, it was impossible to uy which of the young gentlemen won the " wet un," elevated upon the greasy pole. CRICKET.—SURREY AGAINST ENGLAND. This Grand Match was played and decided at Godalmiag, on Thursday and Friday. The following was the state of the score at the close, viz.— I—Blue. ... 2—Yellow. s—Grees. FatotAND. Scalar.

FISHERMEN'S SAILING MATCH. The interesting match betweeu the Fishermen of the Thames took place yesterday, and the day proved extremely propidons for the oeca.ion, the wind blowing fresh from N.& About three o'clock, twenty-three boats took their station at Westminster Bridge, and were started by Nelson, the Water-bailiff. The boats were formed into two classes, those from 18 feet to 23 terming the first class, and those not exceeding 18 feet the second. The Daisy, of Lambetb. was first boat of the small class, and the Silver Eel, of the same place, second. The first boat of the. large Class, Elizabeth, received nine sovereigns, and the second, Betsy, fiv e sovereigns. The winner of the sm all dam received seven sove reigns, and the second four sovereigns. A subscription was en tered into for the losers, and every thing passed off amicably.— Thousands of spectators assembled on the banks of the river, to witness the arrival of the boats. The stopping up of Piccadilly has already occasioned one dreadful accident to the Chichester coach. Surely in so wide a space, and so frequented a thoroughfare, one side of the street might have been done first, and the other afterwards. - Dr. Barton was a punster. He said, " the fellowso f my college wi.hed to have an organ in the chapel, but I put a gap to it;" whether for the sake of the pun, or because he disliked music, is uncertain. Ile invited, for the love of punning, Mr. Crowe and Mr. Rooke to dine with him; and having given Mr. Birdmore, another guest, a Witt to be rather after the time, on his appearing, acid," Mr..Rooke! Mr. Croire! I beg leave to intro duce one Bird mom" lie married his niece to a gentleman of the hopeful name of Buckle. The eitieerrise succeeded beycnd his expectation'. Mrs. Buckle was dithered of twins. " A pair 'of Buckles!" " this or girls?" said' a congratulating friend • the answer may be supposed. To bint; tough it has been ittrigefed to others, belongs the glory or the shame of having said to one, who having re-established his hearth by a diet of milk and eggs, took a wife :—" So, you have been eggeif on to Matrimody'i flume the ',Le will sit easy on you. DEPLORABLE STATE OF TRADE. A most extensive (inure took place on Saturday In the wool trade. The liabilities of the house, it is said, amount to at least 400,0001. This is perhaps exaggerated; but, from all we can learn, their debts exceed 300,0001. No failure in this branch of business ever occurred of so serious and extensive a nature as the one in question. It is said that k will involve from 15 to 20 houses.— Four extensive concerns have already stopped payment. The German merchants will be great losers, as will also the Leeds people. We understand that they applied to the Bank of England for a loan, but they were found to he so Involved in paper trassac lions that it was refused. In 1525 they received assistance. Several houses in the same trade will suffer severely in consequence of baying guaranteed the insolvents to a great amount. We have beard of one firm that will lose 60,0001. In this way, and of another that will lose 10,000 —Hensid. We were unwilling to publish the failure of John Rennie, Esq. of Phantassie, until something certain could be ascertained on the subject. It was well known that Mr. Rennie, besides being an enterprising agriculturist, and art extensive dealer in grain, was one of the most successful breeders of fat cattle ever known in this country. His extensive and frequent sale of fat stock were always well attended by the wealthiest and most respect able limbers in Scotland, and the border counties in Eng land ; the competition was always keen, and in the estimation of men best able to judge, always brought fair remunerat ing prices. indefatigabk in his exertions, skilful and expe rienced In his business, punctual -to his engagements, frank and open in his manners, conducting all his transactions in the most gentlemanly manner, he possessed the warmest esteem and the en tire confidence of all his acquaintances. Never was a failure less expected. Numberless vague and idle rumours are abroad respect ing the amount of Mr. Rennie's engagements ; but, from all the inquiries we have made, we should guess the amount at about, or probably above 100,0001. It is feared that this failure will injure several jraln.teercbants, Anthem and fanners, in Leith, in this city, in the Lothians, and in Glasgow.--kalsmen. STATE OF MANCIIESTEIL.—THE SPINNERS.—The inviting placards issued by the masters last week, have not, small as it is, been without their effect, but have induced, notwithstanding the counter declarations of the men, some of their brethren to re turn to work, are chiefly men who came, in the first instance, from Scotland, at the commencement of the Stockport turn-out; and who have since been dependent upon precarious charity for a sub sistence. The two mills in which the turnouts are employed ate Messrs. Sandford and Green's, in Canal-street, Ancoats, and Mr. David Holt's, in Chorlton-row. On Tuesday evening, at the latter place, a crowd of about six or 700 persons assembled round the factory, for the purpose, as they stated, of @aiming with the knob sticks, when they should leave their work. Appearances were. how ever, so alarming, that it was deemed necessary, as well for the safety of the building as the lives of the men, to send for the police. Mr. Lavender, and his men, consequently, speedily aniv e d ; b ut , notwithstanding the presence of the police, some of the refractory did not scruple openly to express their intentions. which induced the officers to take one of the ringleaders into custody. He was brought up before Mr. Foster, on Wednesday ; but as Mr. Holt did not choose to appear against him, was dismissed with an ad monition. A similar assemblage took place round the mill of Messrs. Sandford and Green, on Wednesday evening; but, in consequence of the speedy arrival of the police and military. no violence or mischief was done. At present, all remains perfectly tranquil ; and as far as it regards the spinders themselves, we are confident, things will remain so. We are aware, however, that there are, in the impoverished neighbourhood of this town, persons who would be glad, as on a recent occasion, to take advantage of any circumstances to commit lawless spoliation. Wise piecautions have, however, been taken by the establishment of a military depot at Bank-top, and by a reinforcement at the Town's Yard. We believe that, daring the whole of every night for the last fonnight, the police have been constantly on duty in those parts when dan ger was most to be apprehended. How keg will this unhappy and unsettled state of things last 1-Jfinsokester and lidfera Adam. MEETINGS OE TILE OPERATIVES AT BARNSLEY.— Thursday evening a very numerous meeting of the weavers and others connected with the linen trade of Barnsley, was held in the Market-place there, for the purpose of adopting measures to pre vent an increase of the misery which now exists in that once flou rishing and populous town. After the assembly bad been addressed at considerable length by several of the most intelligent operatives, the meeting was adjourned to five o'clock on Monday reeving, to afford the principal manufacturers in opportunity of taking part in the proceedings, according to the intention which they had signified. From the want of union and co-operation be tween the weavers and their employers, there were very few per- sons assembled at the time appointed fur the purpose of resuming the business of the meeting; though, from the. circumstance of Its being fair day, the attendance of holiday folks was consider able. As none of the manufacturers attended for the purpose of taking part In the expected discussion, the business was net cam nomad till an hour or two after the appointed time; and after an unsuccessful attempt to procure a Chairman above the rank of an operative, Mr. George Rood was eventually prevailed upon to preside, a nd the meeting was addressed from one of the temporary erections in the Market-place by Messrs. Patrick Flambee, James Shaw, Wm. Ashton, Peter Heoy, and others; but we have no space to devote to their addresses, which went principally to Im press upon the auditory the severity of their present distress' a fast which we believe the public are as little disposed to question as corselets. The following resolutions were agreed upon Resolved—That the weavers of Barnsley view with astonish ment the •unaccoantable conduct of theit masters, in attempting mother serious reduction in their already very low wages. especially when only a few days ago, three of the most respectable of than, Masses. Jackson, Mason, and Tee asserted in the public Mice, in preemies of the Magistrate, Dr. Corbett, and Spencer Firaahope. Esq.. sbd Weaver's Deputation, that they could pay the present list pprites,and receive a remunerating profit on their goods. Liestsived—That as no change has taken place in the elegem stances of the country that we can learn to warrant any reduction in our wages, we ire determined not to take any less than the twee sent list prices, far it is well known that our labour is now at a famine price.—Leeds intsflionoes. The WEATIIER.—We regret to state, that since our last publication, there has been almost a constant fall of heavy rain. With the exception of yesterday, (Friday), every day since Saturday last has brought with it weather more like a wet Novem ber than the first mooch in autumn. The rivers Irwell and Mee aey have, In consequence, been much swollen, and we are appre hensive that the low parts of the neighbouring county of Chester, along their coasts, will suffer much. We ate, indeed, already prepared to aspen, upon good authority, that in some parts of this neighbourhood the wheat has already begun to sprit, and that but for the cold which has accompanied the incessant rains with which we have been visited, serious and alarming damage would have already been done to the crops. The inclemency of the sea ms indeed, during the week, appeared to cause an universal gloom in this town. and created as great a panic as if certain starvation were the lot of our indigent artisan.. We fervently hope that we have seem the worst, and that the change of the moon will ensure us a cendnuanee of the weather we have for the. last four-and twenty hours enjoyed.—Merselsuter Paper. • BAN Er, AUG. 24.—The continued gales of northerly wind have again interrupted the herring fishing during the Meek. For several nights the boats did not get to sea at ail; and on Thursday morning two boats were wrecked at Fraserburgb, and one at Whitehills, and one man at the former place unfortunately drowned ; there has consequently been very little done during the week, with the exception of a pretty good fishing at Fraseiburgh en Wednesday and on Saturday mornings. Upon the whole, the fishing is the most backward we have ever seen it at this advanced period of the season. COFFEE.—The following statement is of considerable interest and importance, as the source whence it is derived may be depended upon as au th entic. The inhabitants of the proviace of Dalecarlia were considered, until the end of ilie 7 hst century, as the most healthful, the most good.looking, and the most happy of all the inhabitants of Sweden. About that time, however, it was observed that a great variety of maladies, tilt t hen unktarnvn, had appeared, and worked a considerable change in the general health at the people ; and that moreover they bad fallen from that coil &ion of general ease and pecuniary comfort which they had hi therto maintained. It was observed also that in particular districts of the province no change whatever had taken place, that the in habitants enjoyed the best possible health, and that their eircsan-. stances remained as heretutore. The solicitude of the public as tkorities being directed to these facts, and inquiries int, their causes being instituted, the result (which has lately been made public) is, that the use of coffee is the sole cameo( the sinister change which has taken place in the health and condition of the people ; and that wherever the people (as in several places) have abstained from this beverage, their health and circum. ta nc es hav e in all respects remained undsanged. The report, which Itas been made public on this subject, goes so minutely into particulars, that it teems almost impossible to be mistaken as to the validity of the causes which it assigns for the effects in question. Supposing the • above inference to be correct, it may be questioned whether the premature loss of beauty among the females in Switaerland, the I peculiar tint which overspreads their eompieziota, and the univer sal ill health which prevails among them, may not be attributed to the use of tLis berry, of which there is consumed in Switseriand micas than twenty millions of pounds annually.—Churt Jourowd.

EXAMINATION OF TIIE HEST 310L-LSEY BeRGLAIts Yesterday afternoon at four o'clock, the examination of four men who have been for some days in custody, commenced before Sir Krauss BILVII and Mr. Hat.t.s. Their names are William Basks, Jabs Smith, WiiUiaw Johsuen, and Ain Emery, alias Peru. Previously to the case of the West Mouhey robbery being gone into, Mr. Campion stepped forward and preferred his charge for the burglary at Walthanastow, upon which Banks, Smith, and Potts, were fully committed. The West Mouhey case was then proceeded with. Mr. and Mrs. Warrington were both examined, and detailed the facts of the robbery as they have already appeared ; and Mrs. Warrington swore positively to the prisoner Banks u being one of the gang, and identified him as the man who stood guard over her and her husband and the servants ; she stated that when a consul tation took place between the thieves, as to whether they should murder the family or not (and this proposition was actually made by one of the burglars), Banks said, " No, no ; we have them all completely in our power, why add violence to robbery ? There is no occasion for it. We have got aU we want." Mrs. War rington added, that the brooch and bracelet now produced by Mrs. Barnett (the wife of the convict) were her property, and formed part of the articles stolen on the night of the burglary. She could not swear to either of the other men. Sir R. MIMI asked Mr. Warrington if he recollected the pre. cise words made use of by the thieves in proposing to murder the family, and he said the words were as nearly as be could recollect, " let us kill the b—y devils." Mrs. Rebecca Barnett sworn—l am the wife of Joseph Barnett, now a convict, under orders for transportation for life in Newgate. Nine or ten months ago we were carrying on business in North. street, Finsbury-square. My husband is a general dealer. One morning, about ten months ago, the prisoner Banks and another man called at our house before seven o'clock, and Barnett got out of bed to wait upon them; Banks produced an old watch, a brooch, a pair of bracelets, and an old coat, and wanted Barnett to pur chase them. He looked at them, said they were of no value, and refused to purchase ; upon which Banks said, " well, we will leave what dame is now with you, and our pals will call in the course of the day with the rest of the swag." The witness here produced a brooch, an old watch, and some other articles, which were identi fied by Mrs. Warrington. Martha Trevino° and Margaret Hewitt, servants to the last witness, corroborated her statement as to Banks and another man calling at their house on the morning in question, and producing some property. Sir R. Brawn asked Mr. I. Isaacs, who appeared for the prosecution, whether it was not in consequence of information given by the convict Barnett that the prisoners were apprehended e Mr. Isaacs admitted that such was the fact, and produced a number of letters which he had received from Barnett, and in which the latter impeached several persons as having been con cerned in soma of the great robberies which have made so much noise within the last eighteen months. He mentioned the names of all those who were concerned in the robbery of Prince Pontine, the French Ambassador, when such a quantity of plate was stolen, and also those who were participator in several bank and coach robberies in the country, admitting at the same time, however, that he had "fenced" (received) a good share of the swag, and had made a good bit of blunt (money) by it. He described Banks as a very accomplished cracking,* and " a good customer." Sonnet Sunsmentbey, a shrewd intelligent boy, identihed Banks as the man who, with three others, drove away Mr. Warrington's phaeton on the morning of the robbery. Upon this evidence the four prisoners were remanded, Mr. Isaacs declaring that further evidence as to the identity of Potts, Smith, and Johnson, would, be forthcoming on a future day. Bishop stated that perhaps a more desperate gang of burglars had never infested the Metropolis than the prisoners. Craig (a very active and intelligent young officer) stated, that in endeavouring to apprehend Banks he was obliged to resort to stra tagem, the latter heing so completely guarded by his pals. He dis guised himself as a butcher, and went night after night to a houle its &whin tow (the Salmon and Ball), and at length he met with the prisoner. Craig was at that moment surrounded by about thirty of the most desperate thieves in London, but he produced his pistols, and in two minutes brought Banks out, and lodged him in the watch-house. Two men who were apprehended in the country by Taunton and Smith, and brought to town yeateaday moroing, were examined touching the forgery on the Ctutom House. BIRTHS.
