OLD BAILEY SESSIONS, Dec. 11. John Cavanagh, aged 17, was indicted for assaulting John Hus►ey on the King's highway, and stealing from his person a bag and a pound of tea. It appeared in evidence that the proseentot, wilco is in the employment of Messrs. E igietun, of Newgate-street, was passing through George-street, St. Glee*, on the SOth of Nov. when he was met by the prisoner and several other persons, who attempted to take the bag of tea from him. The prosecutor resisted for some time, but the prisoner being joined by several others, they ultimately succeeded in obtaining the tea, after beating and knocking him down. He got up and ran after the prisoner, whom he caught, but he was rescued from him by his companions, who weir about twenty in number. The prosecutor, however, again* pursued, caught, and held him until a police officer came to his assistance. • The prisoner called a man named Tyson, who contra dicted the prosecutor ; but this witness's testimony had no other effect than to call down the animadversion of the Judge.• The Jury returned a verdict of Guilty. The RICCORDZII ordered the prisoner to be brought up to receive judgment of death. While the officer was making the usual proclamation of silence, a female in the gallery screamed aloud, and asked for mercy. With great difficulty she was removed by the officers. The RECORD= then, after dwelling upon the neces sity of making examples of those desperate offenders who infested the streets of the metropolis, and who went about in gangs, plundering and striking terror into his Majesty's subjects, proceeded to pronounce sentence of death upon the prisoner, who seemed utterly amazed at first, and afterwards implored mercy. The Recorder, however, told him he could hold out no hopes to him. George Davidson and Robert Coleman were indicted, tlle latter for stealing, and the former for receiving, knowing it to be stolen, a quantity of pig iron, value 421. the property of Alexander Galloway, their master. Davidson, it appeared, was the clerk of the psosecu• tor, who is an engineer, and it was his duty to weigh all the iron that was brought from the %%harts to his em ployer's factory, West-street, Smithfield. Coleman was a carman, also in the prosecutor's employment, and on the occasion in question he received a delivery ticket from Davidson for more iron than he brought to the factory, and it was afterwards discovered that be had sold it at a foundry in Cow•cross. In tlis case, how ever, the Jury were of opinion that Coleman had acted undo Davidson's orders; and therefore, after some deli beration, acquitted the former, and found Davidson— Guilty. _ _ _ The RECORDER told the Jury, that as Coleman was indicted as the principal, and Davidson only as an ac cessory, it they acquitted Coleman, Davidson must also be acquitted.—A verdict of Apt Gaily was then re corded as to both. The same prisoners were then tried upon a second indictment, charging them with respectively stealing and receiving a quantity of other iron, the property of the same prosecutor. In this case it appeared that Coleman had pretended only to have fetched two loads of it on frcm the wharf, whereas he had received three; and he acknowledged that Davidson agreed to pay h m a pound a load for carrying it to the yard of a publican, who, however, would not suffer it to remain on his premises. The Jury found both prisoners Guilty, but recom mended them to mercy in consequence of the excellent character which they both received. Mr. Galloway joined in the recommendation. The RECORDEa said be feared the security of masters against their servants required that the utmost punish ment which the law allowed should be visited on the prisoners in this case, in consequence of the numerous depredations of this descriptioa which had been com mitted of late. T. Calls, who was convicted in the early past of the present Sessions of receiving a gelding, knowing it to have been stolen, was charged with stealing a mare, the property of a Mr. Richmond, a brewer. The mare, it appeared, had been stolen from the Isle of Dogs, and was shortly afterwards traced to the prisoner's posses sion near Gosport, when be sold it to a man named Alvxander. But it appearing doubtful whether the mare had been sold by the prisoner on his own Wulf or that of another man, who was also a proprietor of the st.rbles near Gosport, the Jury returned a verdict of Not WWI,. The prisoner was then taken off to Hampshire, to await his trial on a similar charge, or charges, in that county. _ . George Newman was♦ charged with stealing a mare at Hackney. on the 13th of October. Tne prisoner was acquitted on a previous indictment. on the supposed ground that he had merely acted in the capacity of servant to another person, with whom he had been seen riding off wi h the two cultic. in question. That pre sumption was rebutted by the circu►nstances sworn to on the present trial, and the Jury found him Cid Ay. NEW COURT. Thomas Weiler wasinciictedforstealing a great coat, the property of George Weller, his brother, on the 13th of November. Verdict—Gritty. Thomas Riled was indicted for stealing two ounces of silver turnings, the property of Messrs. Rundell, Bridge, and Runde% on the 13th of November last. Verdict—Gailty. Mr. CLAlllson said, that he was instructed by the prosecutors to recommend him strongly to the mercy of the. Comm. James Catirpkil and George Lewis were indicted for Stealing a patting-case, and a vast quantity of property of various descriptions, to a large amount, the property of Alexander Berens and Samuel Angel, on the 14th of November last. . It appeared from the evidence for the prosecution that the prisoner Campbell went to the house th' prosecutor, and represented that he came to take a choice of fancy articles, to carry into the ccrintry with him, for which he would', pay cash, and there fore the terms must be low, He then gave two cards —one that,, of his address. ,and the other !hoe the good. were to be sent. The *Mow of the goods was . 1711. Iss. 93. and they were sent 16 The Swan with Two Necks, at Lad•lane, on the 15th. 'The pro secutor, Berens, went with the goods at five o'clock, and saw Campbell, and he said his friend bad not arrived, but he expected him every moment. After waiting about a quarter of an hour, a twopenny post letter arrived, and then Campbell said, on reading it, " This is from my very good friend, and he says he will give me 2001. at seven o'clock, at Tom's Coffee-house." Berens, not distrusting him, left the goods at the coach office, and agreed to meet Campbell at seven, at Tom's; went there accordingly, but Campbell never came, and in the mean time the packing case was taken from the coach offi:e. He then got an officer, and in about an hour and a half recovered his goods, having found the two prisoners unpacking them in a small hou e in Gibson-strcet,— Campbell was taken into •custody, but Lewis followed (Ibis own accord to the watchhouse, and was then given into custody also. Campbell when taken, said the pro petty was his. When in the watchhouse,oae of the pri soners said, " Well, we are not bristsgbtherelor a paltry wipe;" and the other 'replied, " No; it wailld have been a . . good hundred for us at least." Mr. CHURCHILL submitted, that the gebailr were sold, and were boiteAle the property of the prssoner'. The book keeper at the Swan with Trio Necks had sworn, that 'after Berens had left the case, he would not hale given them back to Berens without receiving an indem nity, whereas he gave them up to Carnp‘e I without' diffiCulty. If any other person had t.,beri • goods at six o'clock, and Campbea had paid• for them at seven. he could have maintained an action against the book keeper, and thettfore shire most have been a sufficient sale to take the case without the boundary of larceny. The COMMON SERGEANT sad, he should reserve the point, and leave it to the Jury to decide upon the facts. The prisoner Campbell said, that if the Jury thought he was guilty, he must bow to their decision, but he wished to say that Lewis was completely innocent of any collusion. He had met him in Cheapside, and asked him to accompany him, and he was Totally rant of the kind of goods he had, of whOm he had bought them, or whether they were paid for or the contrary.—The prisoner Lewis merely denied all parti cipation in the matter. The COMMON SERGEANT charged •the Jury, that if they believed Campbell contemplated the fraud from the commencement, the subsequent sale would not do away the lliceny. The Jury having consulted together for a short time, returned a verdict of Guilty against James Campbell, and of Not Guilty in favour of George Lewis. The prisoners are both young, and •ery respectably dressed, and appeared to be far above the useal order of criminals placed at the bar of the Old BaileY. Michael Russell, aged 13, was indicted :foe stealing, on Monday, 25 yards of broad chith, value 101. the property of Thomas Bennett. . The prosecutor. lives in White Horse-yard, Drury lane. On Monday, at dinner time, the prisoner came into the shop, when he was seen by his wife; and wit-' ness found the prsoner in the shop with the cloth in his possession. He said he did it from want, being a poor orphan. Mrs. Bennett stated, that she was at the farther end of the shop, reading the newspaper, whels she saw the prisoner with the cloth under his aim. Witness said " hallo!" The prisoner said s. I've brought .this from Mr. Hume to sell." Witness said " No, it's my pro perty, I saw you take it off the counter." She called her husband,and the prisoner was delivered into custody. The prisoner, in his defence, said, that he was em ployed by a person to sell the cloth. The Jury, without hesitation, returned a verdict of It was only the l.sst Sessions that the prisoner was tried and convicted of another offence, and had but just been liberated from prison. Mario Swills was indicted for breaking and entering the dwelling-house of William Shona., and stealing therein divers article, of wearing apparel, •alue '251. and ten sovereigns, his proper. tr. Mary, the wile of the prosecutor, stated that she lives in Bolton-place. Hackney•trad. On the 17th of No vember she left home about six o'clock in the morning. Whet► she returned at seven o'clock, she found her house had brei stripped of every thing valuable, no part of which has been discovered. had no previous knowledge of the prisoner. Ann Holmes deposed that a little after six o'clock in the morning of the day of the robbery, she saw the prosecuiries door (pen, and two women come out with their aprons full of sometling I almost directly after. wards two other women went in; the prisoner was one of the women that came out loaded; did not see the other two women come out. John Hollis, a watchman In Hackney road, proved the apprehension of the prisoner ar.d another woman, in consequence of information he received. Mrs. Holmes identified the prisoner, who said. If I had spoken my b—y mind, you would not bare let the other girl go." She used sell strong terms relative to Mrs. Holmes's veracity. • Wm. Livery searched the prisoner's lodgings, but found nothing there to implicate her in the theft. The prisoner, a good-looking young woman, denied the charge altogether. Mrs. Holmes was re-called, and the witness persisted in her certainty as to the identity of the prisoner. The prisoner called a female witness, who swore that the prisoner was in bed at her house at the time the robbery was committed.—Gailty, Death. Another disgraceful outrage was committed at Drew's Court, in this county (Litherickl, on Wednesday night last, similar in its nature to the fo cible abduc tion of the widow Cowie, from her father's house, and in the same. neigl.bouthood, a short time pteviou..— A band of ruffians, armed wi;11 n4lcect scythes, attacked thp dwelling house of James Leahy, a comfortable far mer' near Drew ' s Don t and made an, entry by, the thatched roof, basing been unable to force the doors. They immediately revealed their intentions, by seizing and dragging from under the protection of her father% house, and in spite of the.pries of 'fief family , Ellen, the daughter of Leahy ,_ gid of 17 years of age, whom they succeeded, in spite of evety obstacle, in carrying off to the county of Ct..rk, and have not since been heard of. A brother of the unfortunate girl, assisted by some of his neighbours, attempted a rescue, but' in v tin ; he was driven back, and two of the party continued sentry at the dphr. The police detachments from Choreb town, Charleiille. Buttevant, and the adjoining stations, have united in pursn't of the authOrt of .tbur atrocious outrage.—Meterick Chroaide. MIDDLESEX SESSIONS. Dxcemorm 10. Miss Macauley applied f or stlieertee from the Court to ensile her to deliver a course of Reltgious Lecture, at Lisle street Chapel, on Sunday and Thursday even• inks. The applitar;on wa; levier ,which having been perused by the Chairman, G. W.

CHAIRMAN-4s it a licence for yourself or the pl ice you want ! Miss M.—lndeed, I hardly know.

Cef Ai RuAN—Your lectures, then, are to be deLvercd in a Chapel? Miss M.= Yes, Sir. CHAIRMAN—Do you purpose taking rnor.ey from those who attend ? Miss M.—Yes, for the payment of the necessai y expenses. CHAIRMAN—Is the money to be paid on entering Miss M —No, but by collections, the contributions to which sill be voluntary. CHAIRMAN--Then you makes° demand for admis. sion? Miss M.—Certainly not. CIIAIRMA N—What, again, I ask, ate to be the topics of your lectures? bliss M.—T: ey will be lectures on the Chti,tian Religion, as associated with the common duties cr` life. lam t.ld it I have not a licence I have un ptotcc:ion against any person disturbing me. The CHAIRMAN, after referring to the Act of Parlia ment, and consulting with hi, brother Magistrates on the Bench Ore in number,) observed that the act em powering the Magistrate, to grant licenses, appeared to include women as well as men ; the words being " per. son or persons." All the Act requited was, that the purpose for which the license was granted shoeld be clearly expressed therein. lie therefore thought a licence might be gra , aed to this Lady. Miss M. bowed and retired. DECIMBCR 11. John Hotholl, who' was committed to custody the other day for cheating Ssrah Waters of divers sums of money, representing himself as a practitioner of the Court, was put to the bar, found liuilty. and The CIIAIRUAN (MI. Marriott), in passing sentence, thus addressed. him :—" John Hods.lll, the evidence in this cane i -shott as it was, left not a doubt of your guilt .on the 'Wild of any hearer, and the defence aggravated that guilt. Your ignorant! of writing, which in no way disproves your acting in this iniqui tous .CA• e, or that habit of iniquity which such a case, well substantiated, so strongly implies, greatly ag gravates your offence in pretending to conduct law suits. If you have any 'knowledge of law, your gross and mean practices in violation of it are peculiarly dis graceful to you; and if you have none, your conduct is only still worse. The pretending to a woman that cer tioraris and subpoenas, and other legal writs (of which she can know nothing), are necessary—and when the one is not used in her tase, and an instrument nothing like the other is used instead of it—is as mischievous a fraud as any that can Well be conceived, or for which this wholesome and comprehensive Statute was intended to restrain. If a regular attorney is employed, he is obliged to deliver a bill of specific charges; that bill may be immediately taxed by the proper officer of the Court. He has also a character to maintain with the profession and the world, and is liable to tne jurisdic tion of his own Court for any misconduct. But if such men as you, pretending to be (what . the law knows no thing of) licensed persons' in the law, to supersede the regular practitioners, are resorted to for their alit, they may make, as you have done, cha-ges in a lump, and of whatever magnitude they can prevail on ignorant per sons to pay; and if they then remove themselves for a chile, no remedy may ever be applied, and no part of the money so obtained recover ed. It the ultimate punish ment awarded by the provisions of this statute should. in any case, be resented to, I ti.ink it is in a case like your's. I think so abstractedly from every extrinsic consideration; but I cannot doubt it, after the public warning given from this Chair so recently, the ineffi cacy of which proves the high public necessity of ano ther kind of warning, viz. that which arises from a literal enforcement of the threatened sentence on the second offence. The sentence of the Court is, that you, John Hodson, be transported beyond the seas for seven years." The shop of Mr. CANTON, the dentist, of May's.build ings, St. M artin's•lane,was a few nights ago, entered by means of skeleton keys. It is the practice of the owner to exhibit single and double rows of teeth and gume, in the joining of ti hick gold is u s ed, and the shop window is also dec ,, rated with nianygold palates,an article which, from its great use in remedying defective articulation, and the extreme nicety tequired in the formation of it, is necessarily very expensive. The thieves opened the case, and took away all the teeth and palates they could find, andamongst the for mer a splendid double row which had been just tini , hed, for a Lady of distinction, who was to have received them last Saturday, preparatory to a and dinner at the house of one of the Foreign Am. basirdors. Mr. CANTON . aIso lo,t a valuable gold pa late, which he had been some time occupied in Making for a Gentleman. The robbery had not long been dis covered when, to Mr. CANTON'S great surprise, a man called at his shop, anti handed to him a large paper parcel and a letter, of which the following is a copy: a , sir—You will receive thole hire grinders what you lost, as they may be of great 'semi& to you, and my genders Is good enough lot 41 the wiitels I gets ; and to sell them for a trifle would be a pity, althdoet 1 want a trifle bad enough, and no atistalte. Please ex cuse strYaking the gouldoff. From -" YOur's, dear Sir. "SIG PING. " Whoever brings you the grinders borne, met tike a 'gateman to him, ell e is a stranger to the party.". Mr. CANTON questioned the bearer upon the subject of the possession of. the teekh; and - the. tatter said, that on eormag_down stairs In altOuse ia. Utc'hse)d•street, the door of . which was generally , open,-be kicked the parcel and letter before him; and • finding that they were directed to Mr. CANTON, believed that they bad been accidentally dropped, and determined to do what, every honest man would do--carry them •to the tight, owner. Mr. CANTON so far respected the advice of his correspondent, as to make the bearer a -present of a sovereign for his trouble. It is unnecessary to cbserve, that great injury was clone to the teeth, from the man ner in which the gold was taken off. Last Saturday, another tobbei y of a dentist's shop took place. Mr. CL tape, of Piccadilly, was robbed of a case, containing double and single rows of teeth, of considerable value. • 9 0 ' POLICE INTELLIGENCE.
