CORONER'S INQUESTS. An inquest was held at the Westminster Infirmary, on the body of J. Dye, aged 23, who died in conse quence of filling from a scaffold at tire north wing of his Majesty's Palace now building, at wh;th he was em played * a bricklayer. Verdict, Accidental death. Another Inquest was held at the 'turf Tap, on the body of R. Spooner, who lost his life by descending a well, which he was employed to dig on the premises of the Earl of Belmore. The deceased had been employed about a month in increasing its depth, which was about 140 feet. It had been customary to lower a candle previous to descending, which was done on Monday morning, when it was extinguished on reaching about half way; nevertheless, the deceased eentured; and, on reaching the platform, he said, through the speaking tube,•' All's right ;" but soon after called for help, when his brother descended, and brought him up thirty feet ; but he was so much exhausted as to be compelled to let him go, and was himself drawn up in a state of in sensib;litya On further application, the unfortunate de ceased was found to be suffocated. The Jury, after ex pressing a hope that his Lordship would desist from fur ther experiments, returned a verdict, Accidental death. A third Inquest was held, on Tuesday evening, on the body of John Ta ) lor, who died, as was alleged, in consequence of being bit by a dog on the 2d of August. Tne wound, it appeared, inflamed, and ultimately be came gangrenous; in this state he was admitted as a patient in the London Hospital. Amputation was per formed on Saturday last, and the unfortunate man ex pired on Monday. After a great deal of desultory conversation, in which there appeared considerable discrepancy of opinion as to the cause of the deceased's death, whether arising from the bite, or the delay in amputation, the Coroner de sired the Foreman to bring the question to issue by a shew of hands, which being done, and there appearing a majority in favour of the former, a verdict of "Died by the bite of a dog," was recorded. The question or Deodand was next to be determined on. A letter was handed in by a person present, ex pressing a hope that such a sum would be imposed, as would either lead to the destruction of the ferocious animal, or teach its master that he could not with im punity permit it to roam about endangering the lives of his Majesty's subjects. . The Coßoweß observed, that the law of Deodand was not appli cable to the canine speties, and, consequently, he could not comply with the request. He would, however, give directions to the Beadle to call on the owner, and see that the animal was destroyed. OLD BAILEY. Yesterdai, Catherine l'armenton and Sarah Jarvis we►e indicted for assaulting Al• ysius Last, on the King's highway, and stealing from his person a watch ; and William Sturdy, for assisting the two females after wards, well knowing them to haze committed the felony. The prosecutor deposed, that on the night laid in the indictment, he was met by the two female pri soners and two men. The men seized and struck hill), and the women took his watch from him. He was sure that the females took the watch, though he could not say which. The men ran off, and very soon after he was attacked by Sturdy, who knocked him down. The women then ran away. He got up, and ran after the females; saw one of them go into a house, and there lost tlem, when lie was again overtaken, and struck by Sturdy. Had never seen the watch since. James Proctor remembered, on the 24. h of August, seeing Sturdy holding the prosecutor in Lisson-stre:t, Li•son•grove. The prosecutor fell, then got 4; and ran after the prisoner Parmenton, whom he knew before. James Gibbs, an officer, went in search of the pri soners ; when he got to where they lodged, he found Sturdy and Parmenton living as man and wife, and Jarvis in the room also, who ran under the bed to hide. Mr. Sergeant A RABIN summed up. He had not called on Sturdy for his defence, because, from the testimony given, it did not appear that he was present when the robbery took place; he ought not to have been inditted as a principal, but as an accessory, which, perhaps, he might yet be ; but at present he was entitled to his acquittal. As to the females, if the Jury believed the evidence, they would have to find them guilty. The Jury acquitted Sturdy, and found the female prisoners guilty. Mr. Serge.int ANASIH quite concurred in thepici. iety of this verdict, and desires Mr. Wontner to detain Sturdy till the next sessions. a bill to be prepared against htm in themineau time, and the witnesses bound over to prosecute, as it was absolutely necessary that the public should be protected against such a charac . er. Thomas Hall, aged 32, was indicted for stealing in the dwelling-house of Emanuel Allen, two Bank notes, Value 1501. and Aliz Hall, aged 20, for receiving oine of the said notes, value 100/. well knowing the same to have been stolen. Mr. ALLEY conducted the prosecution.—Mr. Allen, lois client, was a solicitor of great respectability in Soho, and the male prisoner had been clerk to that Gentleman. On the Bth of August, Mr. Allen received a large sum of money which he counted over, and put into his box ; soon afterwards he went to the box, and found the sum in question was gone, which he would distinctly trace to have been in the custody of the prisoners. Mr. Allen deposed, that he was a solicitor in Carlisle street, Soho ; he was not in partnership with bis sons ; the male prisoner was a clerk to his sons ; on the 9th of August last, he was paid a large sum; a few days after wards he went to his cash box, and found that a 1001. note, which he had received from his son Charles, and a 501. which he had received from Mr. Humphries, were missing. The male prisoner was in the service of his sons till the 9th of August; he thought he had put the whole of the money into the cash box, but found that be had incautiously left the money lost on a desk in the office ; his sons and Mr. Gilby are in partnership. Cross-examined by Mr. Axoaaws—He got the money on Wed nesday, and until be looked into the cash-box on Saturday, his im pression was that he had put the money there. His son-in-law, Mr. Gilby, scolded the prisoner, in mild terms, on Thursday, the 14th, for neglect of duty. Charles Petit Allen is son to last witness, and in partnership with Mr. Gilby. He and his partner carry on their business in last witness's house, but neither of them live there. Paid a 1001. note to his father on the 9.h of August: Mr. Gilby paid the same note on the same day to Mr. Allen, jun. The office in which Mr. Allen, sen. transacts his business, is one to which all the clerks, twelve in number, have access. On Thursday told the male prisoner that he ought to have left the office long ago, and desired him to walk of. Humphties, on the 7th of August, received from Messrs. Mattineau and Co. banker:, a 1001. note, and another from Messrs. Hoare and Co. the larger of which I 'e paid to Mr. Gilby, and the smaller to Mr. Allen, Mr. Alien, sen. and Mr. Gilby identified the note, which were produced by a clerk in the Bank of Eng 1411 J. clerk had no doubt that the female prisoner was the wo - ian to whom he h.td paid the geld for the 1001. note. Mr. Actav at this time said the woman was the male prisoner's wife, and that be gave up the prosecutio n aga i nst her. William Frederick Morton is a clerk in the protect). tor's service. On the morning of the 9th he returned to the office from the city, where he had received 251. saw the male prisoner in the office on his return, to whom he related where he had been, and what he had got. Pri soner then said he had more than four times as much in his possession. Witness inquired where he had got it ? Prisoner said he had got 1501. on Mr. Allen's desk. Thought the prisoner said he was afraid they would have been lost, and that he meant to give them to Mr. Allen. For some time afterwards took it for granted that pri soner had returned it to Mr. Allen, as he ought to have done. The moment he heard there had been a robbery, he communicated to Messrs. Allen what had passed be tween him and the prisoner. Richard l'rice lives at No. 7, St. Ann's.court. The prisoners same to his house on the evening of the 9th of August, and took a furnished attic, where they slept. William Taylor lodged in the last witness's house. On the flight of the 12th, about twelve o'clock, lie was awakened by a noise. He ascertained that it proceeded from the room of the prisoners, and that the male one was intoxicated ; he heard the male pi ironer say he was much astonished, after he had been in that house as long as he had been, to be accused as he had been that day. Immediately afterwards he heard a rustling of paper money, and the female prisoner, in a tone of asto nishment, inquiring how he came by it. This excited his curiosity to such an extent, that he got out of bed, and listened at the wainscotting. He heard him reply to her inquiry, " It's no odds, the money was his ; he should go abroad; would she go with him?" She asked where he meant to go? He said, first to Dover, then to Calais, and next to somewhere else. She said she should ni:t go, and wished he would return the property to somebody, the name of whom he could not hear. He said he should go; she observed that she should not, and wished him to take the property back, and not de fraud so kind a benefactor. Cross examined.—Had lodged in the same place for about a fortnight before the 9th ; did not mention what he had heard for two or three days to anybody ; when persons are heard through a partition, it is more diffi cult to understand them than if there was no partition ; when persons are intoxicated, they also speak more thickly than when they are sober, but on this occasion witne,s was positive that he had heard distinctly every circum tance that he now related. Joseph Donner, clerk to Mr. Kirkman, watchmaker and silversmith in the Borough, remembers the male prisoner calling at his shop and purchasing a gold watch at 121. ani a silver one at 21. in payment of which he gave a 501. note, and received the balance ; saw the pri soaer at the Police Office, and was sure that he was the person ; could now positively say that the prisoner was the man. Wm. Dodd, a clerk in Messrs: Hoare and Co.'s, received the note from Mr. Kirkman, and paid it to Mr. Humphries. Mr. Humphries and Mr. Allen, sea. identified the note to be the one Mr. Alleu had lost. The officer who took the prisoners into custody found none of the property or watches on the prisoners. He heard the female prisoner say to her husband, " Don't tell where you got the bills, or what you did with them." Mr. ANDREWS now submitted, that the capital charge against the male prisoner failed, on these two grounds, —that when he first took the money, he had no felo- Dion: intent, but took it for safe custody, intending to deliver it to its right owner; and neat, that Mr. Allen, intending to put the money into safe custody, had not done so, but negligently left it on the desk. Mr. Justice LITTLEDA Ls stated, that the case for the prosecution was now closed, and that the female was not called upon for a defence, but that if the husband had any to make, now was his time; The male prisoner declined to say any thing, leaving his case to his Counsel. The Learned JUDGE summed up. In his observations he stated, it might be more diffi:ult to trace the 1001. note than the 501. one, and that therefore the best plan for the Jury would be, to confine their attention to the 501. note. There were two questions for the Jury to consider—first, whether the prisoner was guilty of stealing in a dwelling-house at all; and next, whether he was guilty of stealing to an amount above 40s. It the prisoner was guilty of stealing at all, his offence was a capital one, the amount of the notes being far above Ws. but if there was no intention to steal the money when the_prisoner took , it, and that he then meant to return tIA money to Mr. Allen, and that the intention of keeping it came upon him some time after he left the house, the Jury could only find him guilty of larceny. The Jury, without hesitation, acquitted the female prisoner, and also acquitted the male prisoner of the capital charge, but found him guilty of a larceny. Elizabeth Lunn, aged 22, was indicted for stealing two gowns, and other articles, to the value of 71. The circumstances of this case were, that the prisoner went to hire herself as a servant of all work to a Mr. and Mrs. Wright, at L imbeth ; she remained there for about five weeks, and then, at an early hour, before the family were up, went away. Subsequently it was ascettained that she had taken several articles of wearing apparel, some of which were traced to her, having pledged them ; but Mr. Adolphus, for the prosecution, not being able to trace the whole of the goods, gave up the capi tal charge, but thought he had proved the larceny. The prisoner denied the charge. She appeared in a very ill state of health, and stated herself to be without a friend in the world.— Guilty of a petty larceny. Henry Dunn and Martha Smith were put to the bar, the first charged with stealing shawls, silks, and other articles,value 1001. of George Drake Sewell and Thomas Cross, to whom he was shopman ; and the woman with receiving them, well knowing them to be stolen. The details of both evidence and argument were of tedious length. The main objection taken was, that the goods having in all probability been removed in small portions, of less than 40 , . value, at each time, whether the capital charge could be sustained. The objection was overruled. The goods were fully identified by the prosecutor and his people, and traced by the clearest evidence to the prisoners. On their ap prehension, the prisoner Smith did not attempt any concealment of t& fact of having received them from her paramour, but *tared her entire ignorance of their having been stolen. Mary 13 iker knew the prisoner Smith. She spewed witness a piece of green silk of the colour called Ester hazy. She said that there were about 15 yards, which would make a diess and bonnet. She spoke of one Henry, whom witness understood to be the man at the bar, as a vet y kind man, and a good friend of hers.— She s aid, that he was fareman at a linen draper's, and that he got the linings at wholesale prices, and that he etas to pay for them out of his salary. She showed a few pail s of gloves. Maria Wirite had lived with the prisoner Smith for' ive weeks, up to thitime in which she was taken up. Had seen Dunn there often, and various silk and other goods which Smith said came from Dunn. Witness was taken up with her,- but discharged at Marlborough. sweet. At the watchhouse, Smith said that she did not know that Dunn had stolen the goods. Mr. Cross identifietrthe piece of brown silk. Cross-examined—Knew it by the selvage and the colour; he had forty yards of it ; the manufacturers generally make 120 yards of g th o e od ar at e t p h a e tt c ez pric l e t c usual la ual for the shopmen to be supplied with Charles Cruce keeps the books of the prosecutor, and enters all sales to the shopmen. The goods entered against Dunn did not amount to 20s. His salary was 451. a year, and the last quarter was due to him when apprehended. Several pawnbrokers produced goods which had been pledged by Rowland and Mills for 4 ' Anne Smith." Mr. Rowland and Mrs. Malls proved that they had pawned the goods for Smith. The prisoner Dunn left his defence to his counsel. The prisoner Smith said that Dunn gave her the things, and that she did not know that he had stolen them. Several witnesses of respectabitity gave Dunn a good character. Justice LlTtri.rmiLe summed up at some length.— Verdict against both prisoners, Guilty. John Knott, grocer, was charged with sending a letter to William Knott, Esq. threatening to-accuse h.m of an infamous crime, with intent to eat°, t money from him. The prisoner persisted in pleading guilty, notwithstand ing the admonition of the Court that it would avail him nothing as to the mitigation of punishment, and the plea was recorded. The Rscoanzo immediately pronounced sentence upon him, of transportation beyond the seas for seven years. NEW COURT. Thomas Barnet stood indicted fur steal7ng on the 17th of July last, two shirts, valued 7s. and one shift, valued fis. the property of William Griffith. Mr. Griffith's servant, on ihe day mentioned, about one o'clock, putt out the articles to dry on a green be side Mr. Griffith's house, and in about an hour they were gone. John Groves's house commands a view of Mr. Grif fith's green from his window ; on the day mentioned, witness saw a person take away the shirts from the green ; witness then went out and pursued the person, and cried " stop thief." The thief ran through a brick field, and witness could not overtakehim. Henry Shirley is a bricklayer; was working in the brick field on that day. He heard a cry of " stop thief," , but does not know who said it. Saw a person running through the field ; it was the prisoner. Cross-examined by Mr. PHILUTS—The prisoner was 60, yards distant from witness ; might be 100 yards, more or less, for aught be knew. Witness never saw the prisoner before that day, hut still he is positive he is the person wbo was running through the field. By the COURT—Did not see Mr. Groves that day. (The COMMON SERGEANT here desired witness not to leave the Court, and read his evidence before the Magis trate, to whom he stated that he heard Mr. Groves cry " Stop thief," and saw him. The witness, in consequence of this palpable contradiction bf the evidence given by him before the Magistrate, was committed to Newgate to stand trial for perjtity.) The Jury, without hesitation, acquitted the prisoner. lhontas Weaver, a fashionably-dressed man, was in• dicted for stealing 22 yards of lace and 12 pair of silk stockings, the property of Mr. Bates, a linendraper. Mr. Bates stated that the prisoner was in his employ ment as shopman, for three months. At the end of that time, he was discharged, but allowed to remain in the house for the night after. In that time he connived to steal the property in question, and it was found in his box. It appeared that the prisoner is the person who some time ago prosecuted the author of the Hermit in London, for robbing him of 100/., on which be was acquitted. The COMMON SERGEANT now asked Mr. Bates whe ther, at the time he took the prisoner into his service, he was aware of that fact, and that the jury on that oc casion did not believe that he had such a sum in his possession ? Mr. Bates said hie was rot. Had he been aware of it, he would not have employed him. He added, that during the time the prisoner was in his ser vice, he lost property to the amount of 701. Prisoner did not deny the charge, and was found Guilty. John Wood was indicted for assaulting Conrad Meyer, with intent to rob him. Mr. Meyer, who is a Swiss Gentleman, stated. that t on the 19th of June he was sitting in Kensington gar dens, when he received a violent blow on the side of the head, which stunned him for a moment, and cut I.iin severely; when he recovered he gave the alarm, and the prisoner, who was seen running off, was pursued and overtaken. He immediately begged for mercy, and said he was induced to make lire attempt by distress. There were found in his possession, when taken, a phos phorus box and some other articles which are generally used by housebreakers. He was found Guilty. SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. DONCASTER, TUESDAY, 10 A.lt. TUC 011 LAT ST. MIER !TALL!--(TUITINER ?ARTICULAR!). This morning, notwithstanding the unfavourable state of the weather, notes of preparation were sounded at an early hour, all sorts and descriptions of people were on the alert, and every one seemed anxious to be at bis post. We have already said the town was not so full as onlormer occasions, and that quality was substi tuted for quantity. On this day, however, it is impossible to count numbers. Carriages of all sorts have been pouring in—those (rum a distance to refresh their jaded horses, and those nearer the spot, to be first in the throng.' The place is in a bustle, some starting for the course, and others in active preparation. At this hour the odds were -5 to 2 agst Belzoni (taken) 14 o 1 apt Crusader 11 to 2 agst Bedlamite 18 o 1 art Tamre 61 to 1 agst Mulatto Hi to 1 agst Paul Pry 10 to 1 agst The Dragon 25 to 1 agst The General There was a very good chew at Nobility and Fashionable% with a few carriages and six, including Lord Harewood's, Lord Wham cUffe's, &c.

The beting on thi s great s ea k, s, f or t h e k it es , az swathe, was very eat : the York Spring Meeting gave it a Shp by placing Belzoni first on the list—it however soon relapsed into its tonne* insipidity—there was no field —and the confidence of the great speculators being shaken by the untoward Epsom affair, it was not until after the August Meeting that there was any really substantial betting.—The rain fell all last night, all this mornlng—and, with little intermission, all the day. The Jockies mounted in it, aorl before many moments elapsed, their showy habiliments were shorn of their splendour, and themselves wet to theiskin. The long wished-for and dreaded moment arrived, and the signal was given, but a false start was the consequence ; the eat was hoist ed, and they were under the necessity of returning, but not till the Duke of Leeds' toga had run a considerable distance up the hill. At length they went off a second time, with a good start, and the Great St. Leger came off thus— Lord Scarborough's br. c.

TIIR RACE. The Duke of Leeds Masquerade colt made the play on the in side, and kept the lead into the Dip : the running was talicen up by his Grace's Lisette filly, and maintained to the Red House, where she began to fall back ; Tarrare lying in front of the others, and about two lengths behind the mare, always looking like a win ner from beginning to end. Thc mare then ceased to make run ning; Tarrare took it up, never was headed, and won by really being the best horse in the race, by half a length.—Bedlamite came up almost to Tarrare's head; and ran him from rather below the distance till opposite the Grand Stand, where he 'died away; Mulatto, from Sam. Day's fine riding, was s ecol d ; and if Tarrar e had stopped in the least, and had not been a very euperior horse, would have won. Pail Pry was the first horse beat : Belzoni began to tire before he was over the hill, and at the Red House 10Ib, would not have brought him to the leading horses. The Dragon was also dead beat at the same place.— Crusader ran to the end or a mile very fine, and beat the Dragon 50 yards. The ground was heavy and slippery, which no doubt was in favour of Torare, from his being so p ower f u l an animal...-. There were only two placed, but Bedlamite was third, and, ex cepting these three, Tarrare, Mulatto, and Bedlamite, nothing bad a chance from the distance. There was a moment when every opt expected Bedlamite was coming up to win. All the rest are very bad. None of the South country horses had the least chance from the Red House. The General, of which so much has been said, was no where, and we really think that the South country horses may give up all thoughts of the St. Leger. We are happy to add. that the horse that won will nut cause much consternation in the mar ket, as regards settling—he was well jockied by George Nelson.

WRESTLING—THIRD aty.—(WIDNISIIA Y)e .3 1 1 .1 2 2 . 2 3dr • Some single matches were played in the forenoon, and four more names were added to the list of double players. About half-past two o'clock thie double players were called on. Lee, Devon, and Glanville, Cornish, were the first, when Lee was , thrown a decisive fall, being theonly one given. Pardew, Cornish, and Hatst e, jun. Devon, were the next. Bat stone was soon thrown. Bowden, Cornish, and lk, Devon, next entered, and after a severe struggle and several falls which were not decisive,and which lasted one hour and two minutes, Bowden was thrown decisively. (Great applause from the Devonian). Warren, Cornish, and Scott, Devon, were next, when Scott was almost instantly thrown. (Great shouting by the Cornishmen.) Moyle, Cornish, and Gill, Devon, were allowed their throws, in consequence of Thomas Cann, Devon, hating hurt his shoulder, and Batstone, sen. being absent. Ralph, jun. Cornish, and Boyle, Devon, then entered. Ralph was a small man, and Boyle a remarkably stout well-grown man, bur was thrown by Ralph, after three-quartets of an Hour's play. (Great applause from the Cornishmen.) Abraham Cann, the Devon champion, and Middleton, also a Devonian, then entered. Middleton played cautiously, but was thrown in about seven minutes. Julian, Cornish, and Chapple, jun. Devon, came next. Julian was an elderly man, but a good one, and threw his man in about one minute. Chapple, sen. Devon, was allowed his throw, on account of Deeble, his opponent, a Cornishman, not being present. Symonds, a Cornishman, and Viney, a Devonshireman, soon settled their business. Symonds was thrown. The double play being now ended, the triple play began with Warren, Cornish, and Gill, Devon, when Gill was thrown. GLanville, Cornish, and Viney, Devonshire, then entered. Viney was thrown. Abraham Cann (Devonshire Champion) and Pardew, a Cornish. man, were next called on. Pardew proved himself a difficult cus tomer, and kept Cann busily employed for ten minutes before he was thrown. Pyle, a Devonshirema.u, and Ralph, a Cornishman, both well matched and excellent wrestlers. Ralph was thrown. The sport was now o►liged to be concluded owing to night coming on, and, much to the regret of the numerous spectators, MR. LIPSCOMBES MATCH.
