OLD BAILEY SESSIONS. Yesterday, Mary Kennedy, ag ed 20, was indicted for assaulting Samuel Dorkins, an d taking from his person 12 sovereigns ard 12s. It appeared from the evidence of the prosecutor, who was a farmer's servant, that on the 9th of August he accompanied a woman, whom he met in the streets, to a house in Brick-lane. After he had entered the house, the prisoner and two women came in, and the prisoner demanded some gin. The prosecutor refused to treat them, and attempted to leave the house, but one of the women closed the door, and placed herself against it, whilst the others laid hold of him ; and the prisoner picked his pocket of the money stated in the indictment. The Jury found the . prisreier Elizabeth .loves, a pretty woman. about 27 years of age, was indicted fur felonicnisly being at large before the expiration_of her term of transportation, as adjudged by the Court. The certificate of the conviction of Susan Courteney, on the 16th of April, 1817, of the crime Qf having forged notes in her possession, and of her being sen tenced by the Court to be transported for 14 years, was put in, and proved. Wm. Nicholls, a police officer, then proved ilia the prisoner was at large, in the county of Middlesex, on the 27th of August, and that he apprehended her. One of the turnkeys of Newgate proved, that the pri soner was the person who was tried and convicted in 1817, under the name of Susan Colirteney. The prisoner made no defence, and the Jury declared her to be Guilty. Henry Cockercll, Sarah Moore, and James Thomas, were indicted, the first for stealing a gold watch and seals, and other articles, the property of Henry .'tooth; the second for receiving the goods, knowing them to be stolen ; and the third, for aiding and abetting in the robbery. The prosecutor stated, that he lived at No. 6, Old-square, Lincolds.inn. He went out of town on the 6th of August, and left a gold watch and seals in a cupboard under a window. He returned on the 11th of August, but did not miss the property until the 14th, when the prisoner was taken into custody. He then found that he had lost some mourning rings, a gold musical seal, and other property. Crabb, a servant to the last witness, proved, that after his master had quitted town, Cockerell came to the chambers on Saturday, about seven or eight o'clock, and said that he wished to write a note. Cockerell then took a candle, and . remained for about ten minutes in the prosecutor's room. He then went away, and re turned on the Monday following, and remained in the chambers for a short time, while witness was absent. James Bunce proved that the prisoner brought a box and desk to his house. Cockerell came several times with Thomas, and they offered the desk for sale together.— Sarah Moore often accompanied them. Witness carried the desk and box along the bridge, in consequence of a note he received from Cockerell, brought by Moore— he gave the articles to two young women who were on the other side of the bridge. He received a shilling for his trouble. Abraham Shute, shopman to Murray, a pawnbroker proved the pawning of a key and seal by Cocke re) Pr . These were the prope — rty of the prosecutor. • Other pawnliroliers, four in number, proved the pawning of other articles belonging to the prosecutor by the prisoner Cockerell and Sarah Moore. The pri soners were apprehended, and some keys were found • upon them. One of the keys opened the desk carried along the bridge by Bunce; and in it were found several duplicates given by the pawnbrokers to the prisoners. Cockerel], in his defence, declared.the total innocence of the female prisoner. Sarah Moore said that she had gone from the house of her aunt, by whom she had been most kindly treated. She had become acquainted with Cockerell, by whose means she had been reduced to this disgraceful situation. She declared her innocence of the robbery, and said she had pledgedille articles believing that. they were really Cockerell's property. The Jury found Cockerell and Moore guilty, and acquitted the other prisoner. They recommended the female prisoner to mercy. Mr. Justice BEST discharged the female prisoner, after a suitable admonition, directing her to pay the fine of a shilling. The aunt f the prisoner came forward, and declared her willingness to take the girl back again. JaniesPowell was indicted for stealing five sovereigns, the property of Messrs. Mills, wine•merchants, in Mark-lane. The prisoner was in the prosecutors' service, and re ceived the sum in question for dock dues on wine.— These dues only amounted to ss. 6J. and the prisoner kept the rest of the money. The prisoner gave the four sovereigns to a publican's wife to keep for him. When the prisoner was afterwards apprehended be expressed great contrition for his conduct. • The prisoner read a written defence, and declared that he became intoxicated at the docks, and knew not what he did. He had no intention to take his masters' money.—The Jury found a verdict of guilty. LIBEL.-THE KING 1): LAIVSON AND OTHERS. Mr. - .Artuttews said he bad a motion to submit to the Court, in the case of a libel, and it respected three in dividuals of great respectability in this city, against whom bench warrants had been issued, and who were to give -IS bolus' notice of bail. Ile now moved that that notice might be waved, and that the bail might be r.'ceived upon notice given to the prosecutor. The pro secutor in this case was a ilr. Dunn, and the defen dants were ilr. Lawson, Mr. Quick, and Mr. Couchman lite RECORDER asked if the bail was in attendance? Mr. ANDREWS replied in the affirmative. Their names were Mr. James and Mr. Wilson. The RECORDER inquired whether the prosecutor was present ? Mr. Dunn then appeareJ, and being asked by the Court whe ther be had any objection to the bail now produced ? he said that he had but a very short time ago received notice that bail was to he produced. The ityxoenza. asked if he had any objection to the bail? 31r. Dunn said he had a rigkt to 40 hours' notice; and be bad another objection—it was un c.)listitu The RECORDRR.—Don't talk to me of Constitution, that's non e se. The question is, whether you have any sound objection to tm, bail now produced? Mr. Dunn then proceeded to state to the Court the various ex penses he had incurred in fees to Counsel, &c. Ile thought it was very hard he could not have sufficient notice. The RECORDIER said, that he did not sit there to seU justice, but, to deal justice to all parties. lie would not allow any one to exer cise their passions or private animosities in this Court. Mr. ANDREWS then called Mr. James as one of the bail. The RECORDRR asked if the prosecutor had any objection to make to the Gentleman who now appeared m bail? Mr. Dunn.—My Lord, lam taken by surprise. It is to the. other person I object:. ThC ReconnaiC.—Do you object to this Gentleman? Mr. Dunn.—l do not know► I have bad nosinte for inquiry. The Recostres.—'rhen hold your tongue, Sir. tar. Junes was then received as one of the bail, hav- ing declared that he was worth ZOO, after the payment of all his just debts. Mr. Wilson, the oOler bail, was found incompetent to become bail, and Mr. Harmer, the Solicitor of Hatton garden, became bail in hii stead. MIDDLESEX SESSIONS. CHARGE OF SWINDLING. Ye,terday Elizabeth Saxe,' was indicted for obtaining by false pretences, various goods and merchandises, of Moses Joseph Cashmore, with the intent to defraud him of the same, being his property. The prisoner, who ex hibited a very respectable lady-like appearance, pleaded Not Guilty." Very great interest was excited by this trial. Mr. Martin, of Galway, appeared to give evi dence as to the prisoner's character, as well as to con tradict an important part of the statement against her. 1110-es Cashmore stated, that he was a jeweller in Bevis Marks, knew the prisoner by the name of Emmer, and had once presented a bill :At her house. Mr. BArnet, the broker, of Villiers-street, introduced her to him in May. Witness sent some jewellery to her by Barnet on approbation. The jewellery was returned two days after. Prisoner called on him next day, said she was satisfied with the jewellery, and would give a warrant of attor ney to pay by instalments. Did not recollect that any thing was said at that time about her being marriej. After wards she told him she was not a married woman. Witness took the jewellery, to the amount of 701. to the house of Mr. IsAaes, the broker, and delivered it to her there. The security was drawn up by Mr. Isaacs' clerk, and signed by her in the name of Emmer. The first instalment, which was for 101. was paid, but not punctu ally; the second was not paid; and witness, after wait ing two or three days, told his solicitor to take the ne cessary steps. Cross-examined by Mr. AL/XT.—Pin, Mr. Mosish, don't you lend money ?—Lend money ! I don't know what you mean. Don't you indeed ! then you are the only Jew I ever knew who did not know what it was to lend money. Have you not cashed bills for the Lady at the bar ; and have they not been paid ?—I never saw her, but I have had bills with her name upon them. Were they paid ?—Yes, they were regularly paid when due, by that person—(pointing to the prisoner). Did you not receive them from her.—l presented them at Man chester-buildings, and I didn't care who they were paid by, so that I got my money. Here the prosecutor loudly declared that it was a shame to ask him such questions. Mr. Amer.—Shame ! aye, I'll shew you where the shame lies before we part to-day., Is your friend Barnet here ?—1 don't know. If be is, let him leave the Court.—Oh ! (cried Moses) I'm not at all alarmed. CLIAIRMAN.—Thaes very improper language to use to a Counsel. What do you mean by it? Moses.—l meant no offence; but my temper is rather warm, and Mr. Alley provokes me. CUAIRIIANYOU must keep yourself within the bounds of de cency, whatever your temper may be, and answer the questions put to you. Mr. Ataxy here produced 18 bills of exthange, which he said had been endorsed over from the prisoner to the prosecutor, and regularly paid. He handed them to the witness, and asked him whether he knew them ? Witness acknowledged that he knew some of them, and that they had passed through his hands, and been paid regularly. Mr. Amer.—Were not judgment and execution taken out the day after the instalment became due, and was not the officer put in possession on that day ?—I can't say ; I don't know. I left it all to my solicitor. He did what he thought proper. Were not you in the house on that day?—No, not until I went with a warrant from the Lord Mayor to apprehend her. Who stole her affidavit from the Chief Justice's Chambers ? 4 (This question was over-ruled.) Mr. Au= then skewed the witness an affidavit, and asked him whether he .knew it?—Witness declared that he did not think he ever saw it before. What ! You don't mean to tell me you can't see what you write ? Is not that your writing P—Yes. Then you must have seen it. Did you not know the situation of the defendant?—Yes; but I never saw her. Did you sell her those jewels for her own wear?—Yes, I did. What ! £7O worth of jewels for her own wear, although you disceunted several small bills for her?—l never disc ounted bills for her; I only gave her valuable consideration for them—pertly goods, partly money. And you don't call that discounting! Now, I ask you, did not Barnet ask you to lend her £7O in cash, and did you say you could not, but would let her have goods on which she could raise the airway ?—Never. Have you put Barnet's name on the back of the bill?—No. I hardly know whether I could trust myself to him. And yet you trusted your jewels to him. Witness then swore that he never told Mr. Martin, of Galway, that he was not bound over to prosecute her, in order that he might make terms with her. Neither did he ever send Barnetto make any proposals of the kind. Mr. Ellis, Clerk to the Chief Justice, produced the . affidavit made by the prisoner, stating that she was a married woman, and on the strength of which the pro ceedings against her were rendered unavailing upon her paying 301. into Court. The affidavit had been re moved from the Chambers, but by whom witness did not know. It was returned on Monday. It stated that the prisoner was married to a person named Saxey, whom she was obliged to leave some years ago, and that she changed to her former name to avoid him ; that she unfortunately had dealings with Barnet, who charged her exorbitantly; that he knew she was a mar ried woman, and so did all who knew her ; that he in troduced her to the prosecutor, who refused to lend her 701. which she asked for, but offered her jewellery to that amount; that Barnet got the jewellery, but gave her no more than 301. Mr. ALLEY, for the defence, said the poor woman was the victim of the foulest conspiracy, and called se veral respectable witnesses, who proved that she was known to be a married woman, to have gone by the name of Emmer for some years, and bore an, excel lent character. Mr. Martin, of Galway, knew her to be a woman of good character. The prosecutor came to him and told him that he was not bound over to prosecute her; that he might make terms or not with her. Would have bailed her, had he not thought the 301. paid into Court adequate.—The CHAIRMAN said there were no grounds for a charge of fraud, and the prisoner was Acquitted. ODD CIRCU►t3TANC&-- night the landlord of the Ben Jonson, Shoe-lane, heard a noise in his cel lar, which he attributed to the entrance of thieves. He armed himself accordingly with a broad-sword for his protection, determined to capture the robbers or fall in the attempt, having previously placed a friend in the street to prevent their escape. He then proceeded cau tiously to the cellar with a dim light, and heard a hissing noise, and on gently opening the door'he per ceived something white, as if it were a thief in his shirt rushed forward undismayed, lit •on levelling a blow at the object, it disapepared! Re next searched the cellar, and actually found that two butts of porter were gone ! This certainly was passing strange—but on searching farther, he discovered that they had ac tually sunk into an old well, the covering of which had given way. The noise he heard proceeded from the fermentation of the upper butt of genuine stout, and the "effervescence from the bung-hole, and the white object which he saw, was the froth ! INSOLVENT DEBTORS' COURT. SEPTF.NIBER 16. William Osborn was remanded for nine months within the walls, for putting his creditors to unnecessary er ' pease, under the 18th section of the Act. NOVEL CASE. Jarvis Baker was called, as he stood on the list for to-day; but it was stated that he was dead. Mr. Pot.LocK—l was to oppose this insolvent, but I apprehend it is of no use now. Mr. Commissioner itrvsosos.—This insolvent's affairs it would be well to inquire into, a rumour having reached the ears of the Court, that when he died a considerable sum of money was found concealed about his person. Mr. Por.Locx.—The subject of inquiry was to the amount cf L'7oo, therefore his affairs will be strictly looked into. William Augustus Grobecker was opposed by Mr. HEATH for several creditors; but it was arranged be tween Mr. HEATH and the insolvet's Counsel (Mr. PottocK), that as the insolvent had a salary of upwards of 2501. per annum, he should apply 25/. per annum to the liquidation of his debts.—He was then discharged. Private letters from Naples speak of fresh Ministerial changes in the Neapolitan Cabinet. The Marquis de. MAYO, who enjoyed the greatest influence, has fallen into disgrace; the same has happened to the Duke del SANono, who, it is said, will be exiled to Sicily. It is added, that the Duke de MIRANDA will receive the, honours and dignities of the late puke d'Ascom. They General NUNEIANTE w;11 be appointed Insgpctor-General, of the Guard ; and:General Ctivacts, who Mewed much attachment to the reigning family doting the late revo-' lution, will be promoted to the place of Inspector of the Troops of the Line.—French Paper. We regret to learn that typhus fever has again made its appearance in Ireland, and is spreading rapidly through several districts. Armagh, heretofore one of the most healthy Counties of the island, is now suffering severely. In the little village of Ballygawley, in the County of Tyrone, there are 43 persons confined to bed. The Gazette of last night contains a notice that ap plication is intended to be made to Parliament, in the next Session, for an Act to authorise the Corporation of London to levy tolls upon all horses, carriages, and cattle passing along Blackfriars-bridge : and to borrow money, upon the credit of the said tolls, for the repairing and maintaining the said bridge, or to empower the Corporation to borrow a certain sum for those purposes, upon the credit of the Orphans' Fund. A singular instance of brute sagacity occurred during the fire in the Menagerie, at Bristol Fair :—There were three young leopards in the caravan, where they were kept in a kind of wicker basket, and suckled by a terrier bitch. The latter, faithful to her charge, on the flames approaching the spot, pulled the young leopards, one by one, out of the basket, and laid them behind the door, in a place of safety. The affectionate little animal thus saved the lives of two of the leopards ; but the third was so much injured that it died shortly afterwards. Monday morning the neighbourhood of Chelsea ex perienced the effects of the storm. A large tree, situate near the wooden bridge, was torn up by the root, and split asunder, supposed by a thunder-bolt, but no fur ; ther mischief was done. In the Five Fields a poplar tree was bereft of the bark in an instant, the fragments of which have not been discovered since; and in Pim lico another shared a similar fate; in several of the gar den-grounds adjacent, numbers of fruit -trees, &c. were! torn up root and branch from the earth, and carried some distance from their former station. In Surrey, also, the shock was felt, where several trees leading to Bat tersea fields, and along the line to Wandsworth, were either broken to pieces or severely damaged by the pelting torrents of rains Some tenements also had the tilings and roofs of the buildings completely destroyed. Wednesday,theLoßaPnovosT,Magistrates, and Coun cil of Edinburgh, voted the freedom of that city to Ma jor-General SirTHOSIIAS BRADFORD, K.C.B. Commander of the forces in North Britain, and to Rear-Admiral Sir IJoute P. BERESFORD, M.P. Naval Commander on the Leith station. Sunday, Joseph William Tucker, a young Gentleman, aged about twenty-one, went into a machine at Brigh• ton, as early as seven o'clock, for the purpose of bath ing. While swimming, it is supposed that the cramp seized him, and before assistance could be rendered, he was drowned. The deceased had arrived the night be fore, on a visit to his uncle, who, while bathing from another machine, witnessed the melancholy catastrophe. As J. Tuckey, Esq. of Elv:lmb House, was returning in his gig from Swindon, Wilts, where he had been to prepare for the entertainment of some friends, whom he expected to partake of his hospitality, after the Races at Burdetop, his horse took fright, and Mr. T. was thrown, from the gig, and died soon after. Sunday se'nnight, the Australasian Company's ship Triton sailed from Leith Roads for Van Dieman's Land and New South Wales, fully loaded with goods, and carrying out fifty-eight new settlers: there are also on I board a fine horse, two bulls, and seven cows, which will be a valuable acquisition to those colonies for tha improvement of their stock. About ten weeks ago, several mad dogs infested the town of Bolton-le-Moors and its vicinity, which did con siderable injury by biting several persons, and likewise horses, cows, &c. A girl, about eleven years of age, residing in Union-buildings, was one of the individuals that bad the misfortune to be bitten by one of those *ra bid animals. At that time the wounds were extirpated, and the actual cautery applied ; notwithstanding which treatment, sheexpired in convirlsions onMonda y se'nnight DREADFUL. ACCIDENT.— Monday night, about eight o'clock, a dreadful accident occurred at the end of Po land-street, in Oxford-street. A Mr. Sullivan, a Gentl, man living in Dean -street, Soho, was crossing with his wife and daughter, when they were all three knocked down by the leaders of the Ludlow Mail, and Mr. Sul livan and his daughter were so injured (the wheels hav ing passed over them), that it was necessary to convey them to the hospital, where they now lie in, a very bad condition. Mrs. Sullivan escaped unhurt. M. DE LA PLACE on Tuesday last read to the French Academy of Sciences a memoir of great importance, on the flux and reflux of the tides. Ever since 1806, at the request of this profound mathematician, uninterrupted observations have been made at _the port of Brest on these phenomena. M. DE LA PLACE, has succeeded, by a rigorous appreciation of the influence of the sun and moon and local circumstances, in resolving the most dif ficult problems respecting the causes of the tides. It is a curious fact (observes Las. Cases), that in Se neca's Medea, the chorus distinctly predicts *the disco very of America, which took place 1400 years after that drama was *written: In the passage here allirded to, it is said, " A new Tiplir, a son of the earth; will, in ages to come, discover remote' recions towords the wart, and Thule will no longer be the cxtiernity of arr. universe.* • • POLICE INTELLIGENCE. —saess-- Itj A RLBOROU G 11-STREET. A young man, of fashionable appearance, was brought up fros t St. Ann's watc:t-house , charged by a hackney-coach driver wi l t refusing to pay him his fare. Sir Omens FARR %NT asked the defendant what reply he had le make to this demand? As to the demand, he said, he only considered it to be a dtbt,and that the Magistrate bad no authority to detain him, or interfere s it the matter. As to the thing itself, what could the object of nth a paltry sum, or indeed any sum, be to him, for he could, at a uss. aunt's notice, have at his command X2CO,COO. He was that van day going to Windsor to purchase the Princess's-lodge. He hid estates almost in every part of England l but it was a prattl.4 with - him never to carry money of any description with him lie could travel hundreds of miles without a shlllingin his pocket; and if he happaned to break down on the road, he would walk the remainder of the way. ll' always earned his chick-botA with him, and his dranht would. be good on any bank is F.urope. Sir GEOI:GE said, that this was ell very fine, but is. fortunately the coachman was sill unpaid. There teal 2s. Itl; fare, and 54. for his loss pf time, in all 7s. " Seven shillings!V said' the defendant; "only seven shillings? Let the man come alert with me to my banker's, or my tolilitcr's, and he shall have Ms pounds. I would not insult the man by offering him 75." " Sir," said Sir GICORGE FARILAIST, " what may your name be?" " My name! Gon bless me, such a question! any man not kuor • my name ! There, Sir," said he, -vith an air of the utmost costae quence and surprise, banding a large rented card to the Magistrate, "that will tell you who I am." Sir GEONCE, no doubt expecting is ' see the name of some Duke, read the card with much mere stn. prise than it was handed to him, when he saw on it the address cf " Wriggleswortb, oyster-rooms, vhd patent soda-water. pump," Sec. doe.—" Is this your own name and address ?" asked fir Gaonon. " Yes, that is one, only one of nay extensive estabi.A. ments," replied Wriggles-worth. Just at this inst'in the watch house-keeper of St. Ann's c;,me forward, and said that be also bad a demand upon Mr. Wrialesworth. About six o'clock in the morning he asked the watch-house-peeper, to bring him a gimps( Water, and on his banding him a Tag full, he dashed the whole eree; tents all over him. He next tore the tiles el' the roof of the privy, and flung them at the windows, breaking 12,. worth of glass. "Well, Mr. Wrigg!esworth," said Sir G " here is another demand:upon your check-book." " Oh, as for that, I would not sl:s. grace my check-book by drawing on my ban'ters for such a purpose.' Sir Groacz then read to him the Acts of l'arli.• talent, w'aich sub ject persons defrauding hackney-coachmen of their fares, and doing wilful injury to property, to a mouth's confinement at hard labour in the House of Correction, uuless the demand shall be paid befare that time. " Hard labour," said Mr. \Vrigglesworth, " that's the very thing for me. lam a cit Len of the world—like to see every thing—a fine young man, ready for any work. Hard labour is the thing for me: so off I go instanter," (putting on his chip hat and marching towards the door). He was then taken to the locksm room, and Sir Owens gave ,directions that every f icility 3bouldbe afforded him of sending to his friends, as he appeared not to be in a proper state of mind ; but if he did not pay the demands of the coachman and the watchhouse-keeper, and hod bail fon the assault ,on the latter, he must be committed to prison. It appeared, that not having any money, he gave his waistcoat that morning to some man whom be had sent on a message. MARY-LA-BONNE OFFICE. Monday night James Scott, a tailor, was brought to this Ma charged with having attempted to murder his wile. The prisoner, it appeared, had made rather an unfortunate ma trimonial speculati o n, and within the last two years, in consequence of the violence of his conduct towards his wife, he had been coati- nually in prison, or out on bail, and was only enlarged on Monday last. After making himself half drunk, he went to his wire's resi dence in Portland -town, but not finding her, he vented his rage by smashing the windows, bursting open the doors, and destroying the furniture of the house. On the approach of a constable he made a I hasty retreat across the Regent's-park, and there unft.rtunately met his wife; he rushed at her, knocked her down, and with a pair of shears attempted to cut off both her hands, hut in consequence of her violent resistance they were only dreadfully lacerated. The sinew a and veins were cut across, and blood fl ,wed in torrents front the wounds; not satisfied with this, he savagely attempted with the same instrument to cut her throat, and divide the jugular vein, but she also prevented this, and although dreadfully cut and wonntied, she was enabled to straggle with him until a number of persons, alarmed by her sirieks, came to her assistance, just as the barbarian commenced hammering at her temples; some gentlemen instantly seized him, and raised the rcor woman, who was almost lifeless, thel blood flowing profusely from her wounds. The ruffian made a des perate resistance, but was overpowered, and given into custody. ' On being brought bafore the Magistrate (Mr. ltawuNson), be, behaved in the most Insolent manner, turning his hack to the Bench, and saying he hoped his wife may die, that he should like to be hanged for her.—Remanded till the fate of his wife is ascertained. QUEEN-SQUARE. . Three brothers, named Wheeler, were charged with stealing dust,l the property of Mr. Cooper, Contractor for the dust of the united Parishes of St. Margaret and St. -John, Westminster. They were convicted in the penalty of £lO, or, in default of payment, to be sent . for 30 days to the House of Correction. Mary Hangley, the widow of a soldier of the Guards, was charged with stealing a shawl and other property, belon,;irg to Ann ;;rows. The proiecutrix had been also a soldier's wife, and icitnv the pri soner in France; but, after her husband's death, and ha arrival is England, she re-married, and now keeps a laundry. She met the prisoner in the street a few days ago, and, through kindaess, took her home, and on Monday she contrived to steal the above pro perty, which was found pledged at a pawnbroker's the same even- Mg.—Remanded.
