MOMS Dalton and Thomas Rule were capitally in dicted fur assulting William Davison on the King's highway, and fortilly taking from his person part of a gold chain, a gold seal, and key, his property. — The prosecutor is a wine and spirit merchant, living in Greenfield-street, Whitechapel. On the night al the 14th of October, about nine o'clock, as he WAS returning home near Black Lion-court, the prisoner, Dalton, came up to him, and held him by the arms ; immediately alter which another person came out of the court and seized his watch-chain, -which broke, and they ran off with part of the chain, the seal, and the key. The next morning prose , :utor saw seven persons at Lambeth-street, who had been apprehend ed on suspicion of a highway robbery committed in that neighbourhood, and he immediately identified Dalton to be the man who first attacked him. He could not swear to the person of Rule, and several witnesses having given him a good character, he was acquitted, but Dalton was found Guilty—Death. :Sarah Grass, a well.looking girl, was inJicted ca pitally for stealing a diamond brooch, value £lB, two sheets, three books, and othe. articles, the pro perty of Edward Parr, in his dwelling-house. The prosecutor lives its Chapel-street, Oxford.ttrret, and the prisoner was his servant. During her service many of the articles were missed, but suspicion did not tall upon the piisoner until alter she quitted his service, when the prosecutor's wife went to a pawn. broker's inWardour-street, and found that two of her Sheets had been pawned with Mr. Lawton.-3. Vin sent, shopman to Mr. Lawton, pioduced the sheets, and said they were pawned by. a woman who gave her name " Ann Grace, No. 4, Great Chapel-street," but witness could not say that the prisoner was the identical woman who pawned them, as it was in the month of August.—Mrs. Parr being called up, said the sheets produced were her husband's property. Francis Murray, a constable, stated that he went to a b3use in Warreu-street, Fitzroy square, where he found the prisoner, who opened her bones, and in them he found three bi.oks, a towel, and a key which opened a cupboard in prosecutor's parlour. Ann Grace was called as the next witness in the deposi tions, but she did not appear, and Mr. Justice PARK obsirved, that from the want of her evidence the case was lost. Mrs. Parr was called up, and cross-examined by Mr. ANDIUMIL—Sbe lived in Chapel•street ; her hus band was a private broker; sbe kept lodgers in her house—not for a week or a Muth, but for a night, or for a short time. Mt. Justice Pena—ln point of fact it is a brothel. Witness resumed.--Her husband was discharged from prison in December last ; not for keeping the house in Chapel-street, but for keeping another bro thel in Malr-14-bonne parish. The books she bought at a circulating library in Wardour-street, and the prisoner was is the habit of reading them. Witness was in the habit of getting books from the library to read. The house in Mary-la.bonne•street was now shut up. She bought books to amuse her husband while he was in 'Hisao. . . Mr. Justice Etna observed, that the me upon the evidence was a very singular one; the prisoner fn the indictment as a servant, and even if the Jury should be of opinion that she stole any thing, there *As no proof that to the amount cif 40s. had been taken at one time. With regard to the sheets, there WAS nothing in that against the prisoner, as her !liter had pawned them, and she was not forthcoming ; then the books would be the only charge remaining against her; and supposing . the Jury should be of opinion that she stole them, it would only amount to larceny. If, then, the books should belong to the Abney, or .to the prisoner's husband, whose name was written in them In a very good hand, then the indictment would be done away with. The Jury immediately found the prisoner Not Guilty ; and Mr. Justice PARK said, for aught he could see, the batiks belonged to the prisoner, and they might be given up to her. The following were capitally convicted Rviert Sallow &A for stealing a silver watch, a gold chain, and Nola, value 410, of Charles Merry less, is the ditelling house of Matthias Gardner. ihory Clara. for a burglary is the dwelling house' of Leonard Cole, And stealing several articles of „plate, value 401. and upwards.

Suspi. clod s however, being entertained of the prisoner, Story, the mficer, went :o search the house of his ac ittraintance. but necking being found, he was not de tained ; the boy, however, was alarmed, and threw ski awes into the Thames, where they were soon af. terwardi found floating by a carman, and delivered Se the (miler. irrliisorfirerroperts Ore; a lad 17 years of age, wa s ccnvieted of stealing near 4700, the property of Mr. Xidgclls money taker in Smithfield.

Mr. Boc- LAND, in opening the case, said, that example had no effect on this description of offenders, for, at the very last Sessions, the prisoner had himself given evidence and convicted a fellow labourer, who was severely punished. None of the witnesses answering, the pri soner was acquitted. EXTRAORDINARY CONSPIRACY......- The London Grand Jury, on Friday evening, returned a true bill of indictment against thirteen persons for a conspi racy, which occupied the Jury several hours investi gating. The circumstances of this case are of a very interesting nature to the manufacturing and mercantile classes, John Meyer, one of the defen. dants, was a publican and crimp at the East end of the town, about two years ago, where he failed in business ; after which he was a pauper until late in the last year, when he all at once was established as a merchant in Howland Buildings, Fenchurch-street. A large sum was placed at his Banker's, and he be gan dealing with respectable wholesale houses, pay ing part cash, and the residue at short dates, until he became known, and the punctuality of his pay s mews created confidence. His dealings were then extended to Glasgow, Manchester, and other manu 'actin ing towns, so that in a few months hr obtained credit to a great amount ; when all on ,a sudden Mr. Meyer disappeared, his warehouse wAs shut, and no property of any description leh behind. The credi. 'tors set inquiries nn loot, and the result has satisfied them that the defendants subscribed the money to set up Meyer, and received the goods, so that he was merely a tool of their s ; and as a confirmation of this, the creditors find he was summoned for 275. and paid it by instalments, whets he was apporently possessed of thousands. On the bill being brought into Court, Mr. ALLEY applied for process against the defen dants, and stated that as most of them were men of large property, and the fraud of a most alarming de scription, he hoped the Court would order them to give bail to a considerable amount. The Court said the warrants might issw, bat the Judges bad Netter be spoken to on the subject of the amount of On Saturday Mr. ALLEY again applied to the Court, on an affidavit stating that the frauds amounted to upwards of ael(10,0(X), and the Judges ordered that each bail should enter into recognizance: himself in £5OO, and find four sureties in ,V.:.50 each, and that 48 hours notice thereof should be given to Mr. HAR• JIER, solicitor for the prosecution.

Jorrfth Hort and Hai Brian;, Jews, stood indicted at the instance of the G overnors of Greenwich Hos pital, for conspiracy and forgery, under the following circumstances :—James Mason, a native of Islington, and a Greenwich pensioner, deposed, that he, being entitled to.a pension of 48 per annum from Green wich, was introduced to the prisoner for the purpose of selling his pension. He was in greet distress et the time, having lost £l5 the night on which he was paid off from the Navy, and being then without a home, fse having slept fur some weeks in a brick-field near Stepney. The prisoners proposed to him to pass for a foreign seaman, in which case they undertook to procure him 16 guineas in lieu di his pension, as by the regulations of the Admiralty, foreign seamen are permitted to dispose of their pension, and in lieu thereof to receive two years' advance in disch..rge of such claim. Witness accordingly accompanied the prisoners, who, it was agreed, should receive £6.125. for their trouble. The prisoners went to the residence of the Prussian Consul, and procured a passertrt for him in the name of James Cope, or Coffe, represent ing that it was for a subject of the King of Prussia, wishing to return to his native country. Upon this pass the name of Cope was erased, and the name of Mason inserted. They then desired witness to present this, together with his pension -ticket, to Mr. Dyer, Secretary to the Admiralty, in order to pro cure a warrant, upon which the sixteen pounds would become payable at Greenwich Hospital.— He presented these documents to Mr. Dyer for the commutation of his pension ; when, on being inter rogated by Mr. Dyer as to his being a Prussian, some suspicion was excited in the mind of that gentleman who told him, the documents he had presented wore not sufficient proof of his being a Prussian. He left Mr. Dyer's office with the pass, and meeting with the prisoners, who waited in the neighbourhood, said, " Never mind, we will get you another paper to- morrow, that will do the business." The prisoners, according to appointment, accompanied him on a subsequent day to the Admiralty, and provided him with another certificate in French to the effect, that he (Mason) was a true born subject of the King of Prussia, and born at Memel. This was signed, " De Froy, Charge d'Affaires au itoi de Prusse."— Mr. Dyer, still not satisfied said, he would not grant the warrant, unless he (Mason) would make oath of being a native of Memel; and, taking him before a Magisuate, the Under Secretary perceived the em harassment of Mason as the oath was about to be administered. Being then farther interrogated by Mr. Dyer, he confesses that he was born at Isling ton. Mr. Dyer then demanded if he had not some accomplices? Mason then described the two priso ners by their dress. A person named Sutherland, who had been defrauded of his pension in like man ner, immediately left the office, and seized the priso. nee Hart, whom he found walking about Charing cr',bs. The other prisoner, Briant, was likewise ap prehended in the same neighbourhood a few minutes after. The prisoners were both found—Guilty. BIRTHS.
