POLICE. MANSIoIf-DODStrAS usual there was yesterday an annual exhibition of numerous thieves and pickpockets taken In their career of depredrion at Bartholomew Fair. They were chiefly young characters The two following appeared to be the worst cases which transpired: William Paws, a respectable looking young man, and William Joivien; alias Margie, alas 't Smith Bill," a well-known fellow, were charged with attempting several robberies in the Fair. The pri•oners with a gang, seven in number, were seen together at an early hour in thg morning, when, of er some conversation, they separated into different parties. sand, throughout the day," Scotch Bill" and Potion remained together. During the time, they were frequently been attempting to plunder the passengers, but were at Imgib taken into custody.—A Gentleman named Jones, residing In Colman-street, stated,that be bad been robbed of a £5O bill, doe on Saturday next, and nearly £2O in Bank notes. The pri soner, " Scotch Bill," he was certain, had messed upon and driven against hint in the Fair. Nothiug, however, was found In their possession when taken into custody. The prisoners denied the slightest knowledge of cad) other, es well as the existence of a confederacy.—They were remanded. Jehe .111arsall was charged with robbing a Gentleman of his handkerchiet He was caught in the fact: and, upon searching bins, there were found in his pow:viten a number of letters, ad dres•ed to a Mr. Owens. The residence of the, - Gentleman being traced, it was ascertained, that hiving pawed through the Fair, his pocket had been cut,and the letters and other property stolen from him.

The defendant. were held in personal sureties of aflineach to appear at th • next Sessions as rogue: and vagabonds, and to keep the peace in the mean-time. We cannot give a better picture of the situation of these de. lauded young men than by stating, that scarcely one of them had money enough to pay two shillings and tour-pence fog their vu. cognizance, and had it not been tor some pence in charity they could not have paid it. .

ASSIZES. LANCASTER ASSIZES, SEPTEMBER 1. aItbeCTION—IMBIAI4 W. POW. Mr. Sergeant HULLOOK opened the case. The plain tiff' in this action was a partner and confidential agent in a brewery at Woodport, in Cheahire. The defendant the principal partner in the concern. The action was brought to recover damages for the lose sus tained by the plaintiff through the seduction of his only dau i ghter, by the defendant. You are called upon, Gentlemen, (said Mr. H.) to give serious and elem. plary damages. Cases of this kind vary much in their circumstances of aggravation or alleviation. A case of more pure, unmixed, unqualified-seduction than the present, was never submitted to a Jury. The defendant lodged in the plaintiff', Ironies the house was adjoining to the brewery, and was the property of the defendant. The unhappy victim of his seduc tion is the only child of the plaintiff—she is now but 17. She was barely 16, and returned fmm school, when the defendant, by those arts which a young matt of 24 know s how to practice upon an in experienced girl, accomplished her ruin. (Here he detailed the circumstencesto be disclosed in evidence.) This is an action for a compensation in damages.— ' Originally it was only to obtain compensation for the loss of a daughter's services. Judges and Juries have, however, for a long time back, always given damages for the injury done to the feelings of a pa rent. Gentlemen, some of you are perhaps in that relation, all of you can conceive the dreadful afflic tion it must be to a father to find iris only daughter, and at such an age, and by his partner and friend, plunged into irrecoverable ruin and c'isgrace. The defendant is a 'Tang man of considerable property. Besides his share in this brewery, he iately received a legacy of 03000. You will therefore mark your sense of the infamous impropriety of his conduct by giving heavy damages. I shall now call Mires Ing barn to state to you the conduct of the defendant. Sarah Ingham examined—l am the daughter of Mr. Joseph Ingham. He was the manager of the brewery in rortwood. The defendant is a part ner. I knew him since five years ago. lam now 17. He came to lodge at my fatheerabout three years and a half ago. I don't recollect how long he was in the house before he took particular notice of me. He first took notice'of me while I was at school, on repeating my grammar to him in my father's house. He used fond expressions to me. It was two or three months afterwards that any thing particular took place betwixt us. [The witness then mentioned her situation, which her parents had observed.] I after wards lived up stairs in my own room, because my feller would not allow me to come into his com pany. I used to be employed, and did the work of a servant in the house. I went to Elizabeth Cott cher': house, because she said I was to go to her, as my father was so severe on account of my situation. I lived there a fortnight, and then went to hair at Mrs. Smith's, at Cheedale. I was confined there on the 15th of April. It was about tour months atter I had left my father's house. I returned to my father's on the 16th of June—l had been absent from my fa. ther's about five months—l bad conversation with Mr. Fogg on this subject. I communicated to him my situation. He said he w. 3 sure it was not so, I was too young. Before 1 left home he told me he could not marry me, but 'he would always be my friend. I did not say atiy thing. He came to Eh zAbeth Coucher's when I was there, and offered me some money, but I would not take it. He did not say any thing to me of what he would do. He was not more than once At Coucher's. The first time I t• Id him of it, he said he was a villain. it was when my mother :yid was present. It was after my inctiter hid left the room. He said he should Always be called a vinain in the eyes of g od men. saw him rut day, and lie said he would never marry me, I might depend upon it; a few paltry hundreds was nothing to him. He had sai.lnethingot that the former day. He never gave any reason why he would not marry inc. He s.i.l I might go into Yorkshire, and then return after I was delivered. I told rum my lather would nut allow it. The reason he gave was, that it might not . expose him. Cress-examined by Mr. TorPtao.—l was 17 on the 17th ut last Jane. I left school the day alter I was 16. I went to school in Stockport, to Miss Jepson's, a day scoolar. I lodged at my lather's. My father lives now in Manchester. My lather's family were, my tether, my mother, and myself, and Mr. Fogg, who had two rooms as a lodger. I- did the work, no servant being kept. 1 came from school about five sr six in the evening. After I left school I was all day in the house. Mr. Fogg lived in the house about three years and a half before the connexion took place. I read the grammar to Lim an his siting wont, when we were there alone. I can't recollect where my mother was then. We all sat and eat together. Alt the house was Mr. Fagg's. He had a sitting roam and a bed room for himself. He frequently came to me in the kitchen, and when I went to the other par lour he followed me. 1 set with him sometimes iu Ins parlour, when my mother was sewing in the kitchen. She knew I was there. I never was out of bed when my father and mother were gone to bed. My father sometimes went to bed in a State of intuxi I cation. They did once leave me up after they went I to bed ; Mr. Fogg was then in the house. The u i:- I ness then described the circumstances which occa- • sioned the action. Elizabeth Coucher, examined by Mr. WILLIALIS. I was employed as char-woman to the plaintiff. I never knew of any thing being wrong till Mass Ing ham came to my house. She care about seven in the m, , rning, but Mil. Ingham had told me of it in the street two days before. Miss Ingham appeared very much distressed. She staid a fortnight, had sickness and headaches, and•was poorly all the time. I saw the defendant at my house. I saw him before in the counting-house. I told him she was at my house. I told him I thought it was his duty to marry her. He said he could not. I told him I thoupt he did not think her good enough. He said, yes, he did. She (Miss Ingham) said, that Fogg had said in Stockford that her father and. mother had encou raged her to it. He said he was very sorry for Mrs. Ingham, for he believed she was innocent of the mat• ter. He offered her a pound note, and she retubed it. He gave me the note, and told me he hoped I would not let her want for any thing. He said he would come again. He was there about half as hour, pr three quarters. by 111. r. Semi was char- woman six 'mord* before this. During the latter ' part of that time I was always in the house. I have not . shed Mr. Ingham come in drunk very often. When . I was there I used to be in the kitchen. The mother was there sometimes attending family affairs; at other times, and always at night, she sat in the parlour (Mr. Fogg's). I never slept there. Mrs. Sage Smith —Miss Ingham came to my house on the 17th of Deceniber. 1816. She was delivered of a daughter on the 18th of April following. Ellis Hughes.—l was one of the executors of Ed mund Fogg, uncle to the defendant. I believe he received £2,500 of his uncle's money, minus the duty. It was paid in different payments, not more than a year since. Miss Ingham again, [by Mr. WILLIAUS.] —Our home adjoined the brewery. My father quitted in ,June this year. Mr. Fogg's name is on the carts— it has been on them since April, 1816. It is Ralph Fogg and Co. They sell a great deal of beer. Cross.examined by Mr. Toertso.—l never heard my father say that the concern was to be subjected to penalties to the extent of £l5OO. The prosecu tor's case closed. Mr. Torturao then addressed the Jury for the de fendant :—" Gentlemen, cases of this kind are gt ne rally distreSsing to Court and Jury. They are pain. int to the Counsel on both sides. But never in any similar case have I felt less difficulty than on the pie seat occasion: My friend has told y.au, eery truly, th .t Jut7.es now give damages mit merely for the loss of service, but for the injury done to the teelings of a parent. The loss is most properly considered not so much as•the privation of a iew pounds, shillings, and pence, but as the sorest injury to parental fet•hnes : but, Gentlemen, u.e conduct of the parents, in this Case, was most gross aMd indisc:c?.t. My Lesirned Faced has called this a case of pure and unqualiGrd seduction. I expected we should hear this proved by some promises of marriage, the only aggravation which I have any idea of in such circumstancer. Here there was no such thing. She could not pre tend that he had hinted marriage. Ido not charge her with wilful and corrupt perjury. ,I would not I say to in this cause or in any cause ; bat she has been placed in that box to give such evidence as would procure damages for her father. There, Gentlemen, is the disadvantage uncia which my client lies : she can give evidence—he can nut. I ask you, thee, whether it is in human nature (sotto make the cvi deoce as strong on the one side as possible in such 'circumstances ? You have it in evidence that the fa ther often came in late, and often went to bed early in a state of intoxication. The mother went to bed and left her daughter up. This, besides the defen dant, was the whole family. The daughter did the office of a menial servant to the Pendant. They were often together and alone, and the parents knew that they were. She was left up, not to perform any family work, but to read a book she had borrowed from Miss J pson—(l forbore to ask the name of the book) —which she must return next morning. She was called repeatedly into the parlour, and went in. The conduct of the defendant was afterwards most honourable s he gave money for her support, he or dered that she should want for nothing. The parties were all in Cheshire. The Assizes have lately been held in Chester. Chester is nearer Woodport than I Lancaster. Why did they not go thither I Why, because Lancaster Juries have been proverbial for setting no bounds or limits to damages for any thing like seduction or criminal conversation. Bet law considering the whole circumstances disclosed in evi dence, you cannot think any damages really due, and it you should you carnet give heavy damages. You have had no proof of the property of the defendant. It is n:,t pretended that the legacy is all now in his hands. 1 therefore confidently leave the whole case in your hands." The Judge said that the verdict most evidently be for the plaintiff: The only question was the amount of d.images. In course of summing up the evidence his Lordship remarked, that it was natural for the lather to have no suspicion, as the deltndant was his partner. and confidentially connected with him, and as be had been so lung in the house. The Jury deliberated in the box for a few minutes, and then asked to retire. They returned in half an hour. Verdict for the plaiutiff—Damages "SO. The father, a respectable looking man, stood im mediately behind his daughter, while she was in the witnesses' boa. Thursday morning, about two o'clock, Peter Harvey, a night patrole, belonging to the Grange road Trust, Bermondsey, being on duty near Evan 6. place, Bermondsey, saw a man in the rope grounds of Mr. Eleanor, in Evan's-place. Suspecting he WAS there for the purpose of committing a felony, be went towards him and was immediately observed by the man in the grounds, who walked away as fast as he could. Harvey called to him to stop ; the man con tinued to walk on.. Rirvey called to him a second time, and told him that he would shoot him if he did not stop. Harvey called a third time, and as the man was endeavouring to get away he took his pis toe frem his belt and fired it at him, it was loaded • with swan shot, and the contents lodged in the lower l part of the man's back. he fell immediately ; Harvey Iwent up to him, and with assistence conveyed him to • Bermondsey watch-house. A surgeon was sent for, who came immediately and examined the wounded I man, lie said that about sixteen shot had entered his. back, he could not render him any assistance, and i advised him to be taken to an hospital. The wows ' ded man groaned in a shocking manner ; he was al most incapable of speaking ; he was recognised by lone Hewlings, a constable and patrol., who had seen him a short time before emptying a privy at the Hand and Marygold public house, which iaabout a hundred yards distant from th e groun d s of Mr. s asked bins .w h at b roug h t him grounds? he repli e d I was i E n i t e o an m or r ..

The wounded man's name is Richard Richards ; is io the employ of Mr. Ellis, of Walworth ;he also resided at Walworth, has a wife, and bore an excellent character. He was con veyed to Gay's Hospital by Mears and another p a . trole ; he arrived there about three o'clock yesterday morning. The house surgeon found that 20 s h ots had penetrated the small of his back ; th e *gem said he was in a very dangerous situation, and had every appearance 01 speedy dissoluti;Ja.
