9 OLD BAILEY. Forty-three prisoners were yesterday ntoroing discharged by proclamation, 13 of whoth were females, and two were boys of not more than six years of age. Mary Hastings was indicted for stealing a bank note, value 101. and 24 sovereigns,from the apartments of Mrs. Dallway, of Kensington, deceased. The money was alleged in one count to be the property of Mrs. Dail way's executor, and in another that of her servant. John Samuel Storey, esecutor under the deceased's will, stated, that upon heating that some money had been abstracted, sent for the prisoner (who had been employed to remain with the body of the deceased, but had been discharged). and asked her whether she knew why he sent for her? she said, " No;" she denied she knew of money being missing; but upon the appearance of Mrs. Moss, at whose house the deceased lodged, it proved that the latter had mentioned the loss of the money to the prisoner, who then admitted she knew the cause. On cross-examination, the witness stated that the will bad not been proved, nor had be taken possession of the property previous to the alleged robbery. He had begun to act. Elizabeth Hillier, servant to the late ;qrs. Dallway, proved that it was the custom of the decea..d to place her money in a cellaret ; that after death, the cellaret was removed into the room where she lay ; and that no person besides the prisoner and her niece had access to that room. Witness saw parcels of money in the cellaret previous to its removal. The prisoner left on the 29th of August, and the money was missed about an hour after. Susan Ruct,servant to Mrs. Mathews, at Kensington, proved that the prisoner, on the 29th of August, delivered to witness a parcel to cake care of, which she delivered on the same day to Ellis, the officer. James Ellis, the Bow•street offieer, received the parcel from the last witness. He produced a black silk stock ing, containing 24 sovereigns, and a 101. note, N 0.848, dated the 9th of June, 1826. Prisoner, when interro gated by witness, denied having placed money in any person's hand. When the parcel produced was shewn to her, she admitted that she had lodged it with Rust. Several witnesses then deposed to a chain of evidence which clearly proved that the Bank-note, No: 548, dated the 9th of June, 1826, had been in Mrs. DaUway's possession. On the case for the prosecution closing, Mr. ALLEY, for the prisoner, objected that the money alleged to have been stolen was not the property either j of the executor (who had net proved the will, or taken actual possession of the property), nor of the servsnt of Mrs. Dallway. Mr. Sergeant Mum, having consulted the Judges in the other Court, overruled the objection. A great many respectable persons gave the prisoner an excellent character. The Jury found the prisoner Cosily, tut recommended her strongly to mercy, on account of her excellent character previous to the offence. James Green, aged 11, was indicted for assaulting Elizabeth Neame, on the Mile-end-road, and taking from her person a parcel of linen. The facts of the case were clearly proved ; but as there was no violence use ', the Jury found the prisoner guilty of privately stealing from the person of the prosecutor. Robert King, aged 21, and John Robinson, aged 19, wire capitally indicted for assaulting Lewis Myerson on the King's highway, on the evening of the 14th of July last, and taking from his person three half•crowns and other money. Lewis Myerson is the beadle of the Episcopal Chapel, Cambridge-heath, and constable of the parish of Beth nal-green. On the 14. h of July, between six and seven in the evening, witness was passing Fleet-street-hill, and saw the prisoners, with a great many others, tossing halfpence. Upon passing the crowd, witness heard a voice calling "'there goes the beadle!" Stones were thrown at him, and turning round, witness saw Robinson active in throwing. Other men (of whom King was one) came up, and King said, "They say you have lagged some of our chaps." King asked wilnrs,, " Have you any money for us ?" Witness replied, none for you.' Robinson was then close by. King observed, " We will soon have all," and immediately knocked witness down with a leaden dumbbell. The blow caused a wound, the masks of which witness will carry to his grave. Witness felt King's band in his pocket (where witness had three half-crowns) whilst stooping to let the blood run from his face. A struggle took place between the two prisoners, and some of the money was scattered. Saw some silver in Robinson's hand, who shewed it to witness, saying "Look at this you-4' and jingled it. The men then dispersed. Knew the two prisoners before. King was apprehended next day; Robinson on the following. Cross-examined by Mr. BRODERICK—Spoke to a person named Wood, a few minutes after the robbery ; pointed out to him the two men, and will swear he told Wood they had robbed him. Never told any one be had not been robbed. Norris, a Bow-street officer, was on duty on the day mentioned, to prevent bullock-hunting; was sent for by the prosecutor, and found him cut in a desperate manner ; bas eye could scarcely be seen. By the de scription given by Myerson, the witness apprehended both the prisoners. Two other officers confirmed the testbnot.y of Norris. On the part of the prisoner Robinson, Mr. BILOVIMICK called Jeremiah Wood, a weaver, of Ram-alley, Bethnal green ; who deposed, that be procured some vinegar for the prosecutor on the occasion of his being attacked. Witness saw two young men, to whom the prosecutor pointed as the persons who had just ill-used him. Knows both the prisoners ; neither of them was one of those to whom the prosecutor pointed. The latter never com plained of having been robbed; but merely said he had been ill-used. Cross-examined by Mr. Mumma—Witness is a friend of Robinson, and was speaking to his brother at the time. Did not go to Myersoo, with one of Ro binson's brothers (Thomas), and offer the prosecutor IV .to throw out the bill. Went to him before the prisontr bad a second hearing, accompanied by the brother, to tell him that, under a mistaken notion, be had taken up-the wrong person. Abraham Robinson, a brother of the prisoner, corroborated the testimony of Wood. The prosecutor recalled, stated that three persons, and o of whom were the witnesses Wood and Robinson, carne to him, and Wood said, " You know the proverb, If one hand washes the other, both will be clean." He then said he (Wood) was a friend and acquaintance of the prisoner, and offered to witness ten sovereigns to keep out of the way. Upon this point, the prosecutor was closely examined by the Judge and Mr. BIIODIR/CIC, but persisted in his statement. Several ocher witnesses stated that the persons who committed the robbery were net the prisoners at the bar. --- Lenoir and other persons spoke to the good character of the prisoners. The former witness reluctantly admitted that King hall been before in custody. Nlr. Justice GASaLEE summed up at considerable ler'Vhs and the Jury, after retiring for about.2o minutes, , und both peisoners George Nichols, AO 24, and James GouU , i, aged 18 ware indicted for assaulting William Nicholls on t')e Kinekhigh way, putting him in bodily fear, and forcibly taking from his person 14. and some pence in copper, a hat, a basket, and two cloths, his property. The prosecutor stated, that on the night of the 29:h ofJune last, he was sitting at the Adam and Eve public , house, between Homerton and Hackney. Both the prisoners were at the same house. Witness left the , house about half-past 10 o'clock, and when he had got about half way towards home, he was overtaken by the prisoners. One of them (Nichols) immediately smashed him down. He fell on his face, but immediately turned up. Both prisoners then struck him, and forced his money from him ; it consisted of 14:and some pence and halfpence, all in copper. Witness implored them to spare his life, for the sake of his poor wife and four small chil dren. He soon after became senseless from the violence of the blows. When he recovered his senses, he found himself lying on the road, with his face and head covered with blood. His basket of shell-fish, his hat and the two cloths were gone. Among the money he lost was one penny-piece, which was a remarkable one, And which he should know again. He shouted out " Mur der," and " Stop thief," as loud as lie could, and a man came to his assistance, and witnesss went back with him to the White Lion public house, where he found both the prisoners in custody. Witness addressed them, and said, " You d—d rascals, what did you mean by leaving me for dead on the road and taking my property?'' He was quite certain that the prisoners were the men who struck and robbed him. Witness had been selling fish that evening. _ Cross-examined by Mr. BARRT—Was perfectly sober that night. Wm. Alger (the person who came to the prosecutor's assistance) proved, that on the evening in question he was at the White Lion • he heard the cries of . 4 mur der" in the direction of Nicholls's house. He went towards that spot, and met the two prisoners coming towards him. He stooped down until he heard some other person coming up, and with that person's aid he took them both into custody, and they were taken to the White Lion. He then went on to look for the person who had been robbed, and found the prosecutor near the spot, covered with blood. He went back with him to where the prisoners were, and he instantly identified them as the persons who robbed him. On one of the prisoners was found the pieces of cloth, and in the pockets of the other some pence and halfpence. Prosecutor now identified these articles, and the marked pennypiece, as his property. The landlord of the White Lion, and same other witnesses, cor rohorated several important parts of the prosecutor's statement. When the prisoners were taken, they had both marks of blood on their clothes. A surgeon whit attended the prosecutor, proved that he bad been severely injured. There were several bruises and marks u of pinching with the angers on the throat. Both prisoners denied their guilt, and one of them (Nichols) pro duced a man with whom he bad been employed as a navigator (ex cavator), who gave him a good character. Mr. Justice larrri.xnaix summed up the evidence, and the Jury found them both Guilty—Death. James Archdeacon Richardson, a very dashing-looking young man, described in the calendar as a " M lit ary Officer," was put to the bar, charged with publishing a certain false and scandalous libel of and concerning his own brother, Mr. Richardson (of Povais celebrity), and also tending to provoke the said Mr. Richardson to commit a breach of the peace by fighting a duel. The prisoner, on being placed at the bar, pleaded Guilty, and Mr. ANDREWS (who, we believe, was retained for the prosecution) addressing the Court, said, the purposes of public justice would be answered in this case by having the prisoner bound over in his own recognizances to appear for judgment when called upon, and in the mean time to keep the peace towards the prosecutor and his family. The prisoner then entered Into his own recognisance. in the sum of 1001. and was discharged. James Newton was indicted for stealing six pounds weight of opium, the property of the Company of Apo• thecaties. It appeared that he had been employed in Apothecaries' Hall, where he had access to the store in which this and other valuable drugs were kept. He was detected with the property in his possession. Several witnesses gave the prisoner a very good cha• ratter up to this transaction. He had a very large family, and it was intimated that this was his first offence, and that he had been seduced into its commis sion by another party. _ . . He wu found Guilty, and sentenced to 12 months imprisonment in :he House of Correction. Patric& Burke was found guilty of picking a Gentleman's pocket of s handkerchief. The RECORDER called him up for judgment, and after adverting to the general insecurity of persons going with property about them through some of the principal streets of the Metropolis, and to the necessity of making an example of such depredators, sentenced him to be transported for life. Eleanor Finn was indicted for stealing a watch and some petty articles of furniture, the property of John Smith. It appeared from the evidence, that the pri soner had been in the employment of the prosecutor, who resides in St.Giles's,and had thus become acquainted with his modes and habits of living. Oa Sunday the 18th of June, the prisoner, knowing that the prosecutor and his family were at Church. went to his house, and representing herself to :he servant as Mrs. Smith's sister, said that she would wait their return home. After waiting a short time, she requested her is go out and fetch her a pint of ale. The servant complied - with her request. but on her return missed the prisoner and her master's watch, which she had left hanging on the dres ser of the kitchen, and several other articles of minor value. The prisoner was not apprehended till a week afterwards, but none of the property was found upon her. She said nothing in her defence, and the Jury immedi ately returned a verdict of guilty of stealing to the va lue of S9s. Mr. Commissioner HARRIS sat in the Insolvent Deb tors' Court, during a portion of yesterday morning, to hear motions; after which the Court adjourned to the 30th of October. ENGLISH OPERA House.--Before Bren&jast wa• re peated here last evening to a numerous audience, and received with its accustomed applause. Brother and Sister followed, Miss PATON delighting the audience , with her splendid musical talents. The Echo song was' delightfully executed by her ; and the admired Air rve, ken roaming, was rapturously encored. A Roland.* an Oliver was afterwards produced, Miss Cusaa FISHER personating the wayward Maria Darlington. What Miss F. lacked in personal appearance, she compensated i for in able conception and sprightly delineation of the' character. The waltzing song was encored. BURNLEY BANK.—A second Dividend of 4s. 6d. in the pound, on the estate of Messrs. Holgate, has been declared, which, with the former one, makes lls. 2d.

THE BETHNAL-GREEN RIOTS. APPOINTMENT OF THE HORSE PATROL. Yesterday morning, the orders of the Secretary of State to the Magistrates of Worship-street B,lice Office, to e•tablish a parte of horse patrol, to be under the Jo risdiction of their Worships, was carried into eff,..ct, and a party of strong, able-bodied men, who have held situations in the army, were appointed; and at twelve o'clock they mounted, and went on duty, accoutred with cutlasses, pistols, and blunderbusses. These men were to remain on active duty till five o'clock in the morning, and will be in constant communication with 40 of the dismounted horse patrol, who were also sent upon duty by order of the Right Hon. Secretary. The dismounted are divided into parties, and are stationed at the following posts, viz.—Cambridge Heath Gate, Mile-end Gate, Whitechapel Church, London Appren. tice Gate, and near the Regent's Canal, Mile-end Rnad. This body of men will also remain on duty till five o'clock in the morning, when they will go off, and communicate with the Ma. gistrates of Worship-street. Yesterday being market day at Smithfield, the gang were on the look-out for beasts, and we hear that as early as six yesterday morning two bullocks were taken from a drove, and are now in the hands of the gang. However, we have no doubt but that the officers will . prevent them from pursuing their outrages. Wednesday, a bullock was rescued from them In the Kingsland Road, and after being secured In Clement's barn till the gang had been dispersed, it was conveyed home to its owner, Mr. Alexander, in Whitechapel Market. It having been reported that Mr. Sykes, proprietor of the ham and beef shop, in Winchester -street, Hare street Fields, had died yesterday morning, in the Lon don Hospital, from the dreadful injuries be received from the gang, and were happy to say he is still alive. It seems that Mr. Sykes had only set up in business a few days, when about eight o'clock in the evening about 20 fellows came round his shop, armed with sticks; he suspected they intended an attack, and for security got behind the counter, when the whole gang came in, and seizing a buttock of beef and a ham, ran out of the shop. He endeavoured to prevent them by putting out his arm, when one of them took up a hatchet or hammer, and with a tremendous blow struck him over the arm, which broke it in a dreadful manner; it has been since amputated, and he now lies in a very bad state. The gang then went into a baker's shop, and helped them selves to bread, and afterwards adjourned to the brick field, and ate the provisions in a very short time. It would be too tedious to state the numerous outrages that have been committed by this gang, but there is reason now to hope, that the establishment of the horse patrol, and the conviction on Thursday of' three of them at the Old Bailey, for atacking and robbing Mr. Fuller, will be the means of routing them altogether from the parish.

The line to which the weight was made fast was of the thickness of a sash cord, and joined in lengths of 50 yards each. At seven o'clock the man selected for the purpose made his appearance, and soon commenced his Herculean task with considerable energy, and completed his task in 55 minutes. The arrival of the weight at its destination was hailed with shouts by the bystadden. The bets were that the task could not be performed in an hour. A RM Y.

MARKETS. I.ONDON, SIIPTIMRBIL 22. Corrox.—The purchases of Cotton fur the week ending yesterday, were not extensive, a great proportion a the buyers waiting the event of this day's East India Sale. The sale at the India House this morning attracted great attention, and our anticipations that the Cottons were much wAnted, are fully realised ; the advance is 44. to id. per lb. and the inferior descriptiosts are id. to 44. higher ; but, as usual, where there is much speculative buying, the prices are very irregular. _ _ _ St/Gaol-The Sugar market has been heavy all the week ; it was supposed that as the latter part of the Mauritius Sugar sales ma Tuesday, consisting of nearly 6,000 bags, went off with briskness at higher prices, that it would have a favourable effect ; but no improve ment took place, though they sold higher than the West India de scriptions. Towards the close of the market yesterday, there ap peared more demand for Aitr.covades, but the pricea were 6d. to b. under the late currency.
