POLICE, &c. On Thursday evening Aaron Alexander was char ged at Bow -street, on suspicion of setting fire to his house, in Little Queen-street, Lincoln's Idn-fields. John Austcy, the landlord of the house in which the prisoner resided, let the shop to him and his part ner, at nine shillings a week. The witness occupied the first floor. About one o'clock on Tuesday morn ing he was alarmed by a watchman knocking at his bed room door, and calling fire." He got up, and with all possible speed ran down stairs, when lie observed tile partition, which divides the shop and the passage from the stairs, to be in flames. He took a large piece of flannel, and endeavoured to smother the fi:tmes with it, and, being assisted by a Mr. Lee, who lodged h his garret, they succeeded in getting the fire out before the engines arrived. When he first got down stairs, the shop and street door were both open ; the prisoner, who slept in the sill . ), was not there, but while he was exerting himself in ex tinguishing the flames, he came in and said that the fire was occasioned by his leaving a candle burning upon the top of his bureau bedstead to light his part ner when he should come home, and that the heat of the candle had drawn down some of' the things that were hanging up in the shop and had set them on fire. When the prisoner first came in to him his coat was b etoned up close to his neck, but he had no neck cleth en ; he had his hat on, and his boots, but could not tell whether he had his breeches on or not. .h.fin Thomas Barber, one of the Directors belong ing to the County Fire Office, said, that an insurance was made at their office, ahem ten days since, in the names of Aaron Alexander and Samuel Simmons, of Little Queen-street, in the sum of £5O on the house hold furniture, and A'23o on the stock in trade. The insurance was made by Simmons in their joint names. On Wednesday a claim was made at their office. by Simmons, for A'BB. 13s. 61 in consequence of which he sent Francis Lye, a clerk belonging to their office, for the purpose of inspecting the damage ; and from his report of the state of the premises he went him sllf, and saw that the partition had been burnt through, and a hole about the size of the crown of a hat, and a shelf had also been burnt through ; and in the inside of the partition there were marks of tallow or grease running down, and the partition, which is about eieliteen inches in width, was smeared on each side of the hole which the candle had made. The prisoner observed to him, that about half an hour before the alarm of fire, he went to bed, having first extinguished his fire very carefully, and that he -placed the candle on the head of his bedstead, about three feet from where the partition took fire. On his discovering the house to be on fire, berm out into the street in his shirt, and desired the watchman to call the people who lived up stairs. The witness observed bat very few fragments of burnt rags. The furniture did not appear to be worth £3, and the stock in trade very trifling, and probably not worth £2O. The quantity of goods for which the claim was made could not have been placed upon the shelves where the fire began, ncr could they have been burnt in so el:eit a time without some remains of them appear ing. prisoner admitted that he had signed the da 7 m made upon the office. Jce.eph Eastree, one of the Firemen belonging to the County Office, said, he went to Little Queen street, on Tuesday morning, in consequence of an alarm of fire, where he got-about half past two o'clock. That he found the prisoner in bed in a bureau bed ste:. d in the shop, the fire being then completely out ; evefy body in the house, he believed, was then in bed. He knocked at the street-door, for some time, ton - pursued and secured him and he secured Solo- mons, and, as he was leading him along b he picked up a pocket-book, which, he had no doubt, Solomons dropped, as it fell at his feet. On searchinft him, he found four £1 Bank of England notes in his fob pocket, and in his breeches pocket seven dollars, which he said was all the money he had about him ; but, on searching his right-hand coat pocket, another £1 note was found. The prisoner Joseph refused to' submit to be searched by Preston, but at last agreed that he should search him ; and the Patrole perceiv ing him put something into his mouth, searched him very closely, when he found a £3O Bank -note, a L€ 4, and two Jel notes, betweet his shirt and his neck, which he said were his own. In the pocket-book which he picked up, he found a banker's check for R 56, and two lottery shares. Mr.• Ross, who resides in Marchmont-place, Rus sell-square, confirmed the above ; and said, he saw Solomons drop a pocket-book, which Was picked up by Vickery. Preston confirmed Vickery's statement. Mr. Dodd, the prosecutor, said, that about half past two o'clock, on Tuesday, he was in New Palace yard, at the Westminster Meeting, and, in a few minutes after the people began to disperse, he missed his pocket-book, and identified the one picked up by Vickery, and dropped by Solonicns ; also the Bank notes and check found upon them, to be the same that were in his book. The prisoners were fully committed for trial. The woman who we stated a few days since was held to bail to keep the peace towards Mr. W M. P. for annoying him as he went in and out of the House of Commons, and at his own house, in conse quence of her having had a child by him, and she alledging that he owed her £lOO for bringing it up, has not attended to the recognizance she had entered into, but has since pursued the same course, and has beset Mr. W. and called after him opprobrious names, saying he had cheated her out of £lOO, in consequence of which she was taken into custody again by Laven der, and brought before Mr. Natty, who ordered her to find bail, and she was taken to the Brown Bear public-house, and while sitting in the parlour; in an act of desperation stabbed herself with a peH-knife. Mr. Cole, a surgeon, attended, who said that the knife had entered just above her navel, but it having gone in a slanting direction, the wound would not prove fatal. She was accordingly conveyed to To thill-fields Bridewell, for want of bail. On Thursday night, as a young gentleman, named Harrison, from the country, was going along New gate-street, he was hustled and robbed of his book, containing bills of exchange to a large amount, and Jen in Bank-notes. On Tuesday evening a woman, who lodged in a house in Little Chesterfield-street, St. Mary-la-bonne, having been repeatedly teazed by her landlord for .1-- rears of rent, and being displeased at his troiii..targ her, resolving to be revenged, got some gun-p.,.vder, and set fire to it in her room ; but the explosion was greater than she expected, for it blew the window completely out, and she was scorched in a dreadful manner, and carried to the Middlesex Hospital. On Monday sc'nnight the Midshipman of the Im press, a letter-carrier, a barber, and a retail dealer, were enjoying themselves at dice, in a public-house, in Dundee, when the barber and midshipman guar : relied about twopence. They at first proceeded tc, settle the point by pugilistic exertion ; but the barber finding himself worsted, secretly drew his razor, and made an incision along the back part of the midship , man's head, and down to his neck, which, however, ' had no other serious consequence than a plentiful ef fusion of blood. before he could gain admittance.

The former has contested many successful battles, tinder the tui tion of Caleb Baldwin, the veteran. Hail is a candi date for fame from Bristol. The contest was for a subscription purse of 20 guineas ; Ilall was the fa vourite at setting-to. In the first round it was seen that Hall was without science, and Ballard lainiedhis head ; but at the close of the round the Bristol man planted a half round hit on the side of Ballard's neck, and he fell. This hit brought betting to 2tol in fa vour of Hall, but although the fight might have been considered to have been taken out of Ballard, he ral lied again in the next round, planted two hits on his adversary's eye, and gave himself an easy fall. He rallied again in the third round, and hit Hall on the left side, which puffed it up to the size of an egg.— Hall had the best of the fight after this, although he can only be said to have one perfection, which is making tremendous right-hand blows. These blows, although slowly planted, Ballard was not able to stop, or get away from, and he fought under every disadvantage for • half an hour, when he resigned, milled in a manner that would satisfy any glutton.

It has been truly observed, that woman, more than the other sex, may be considered in a certain degree as invares ; they are subjected to a variety of disease., from the na ture of the functions they are destined . as mothers, to perform, which entails upon them weakness pain, and an i n t errupt i on o f those regular secretions connected with the full enjoyment of health. To act on the constitution of the female and relieve this obstruction, no remedy has been known to operate with such cer tainty, quickness, and safety, as Dr. Fothergill's Female Pills—it unites high tonic and invigorating powers, with its peculiar qua lity of relieving fullness, oppresslon, and these other uneasy symp toms which arise from too much blood in the habit; they are the most certain cure for nervous, hysteric, and flatulent eonsplaiers, as well as the various other spasmodic affections so common to the sex.
