POLICE. MANSION-11013E.—1 Smith, a clerk in the House of Messrs. Barclay and Tritton, bankers, of Lombard-street, was yesterday charged %vitt' having stoical a cheque tin 2001., which had been paid by his master's house, but had nor been cancelled. The cheque in question, it appeared, had neen paid by the clearing clerk, and by him handed to the prisoner, whose duty it was to enter it as paid, and to cancel it. Instead of doing this, however, he put it into his packet, and the next mf,rning had it presented again, when it was paid a second time In two days afterwards this circumstance tranTired, and the prisoner bribing been heard to talk of going abroad, he was suspected, and, on being .clusely interrogated, he confessed his guilt, and stated that he bad purchased foreign gold with the produce of the cheque. This gull was afterwards found at his lodgings, and with it a paper, which led to the discovery of another cheque for a similat amount, which had been paid twice in like manner. He was remanded for a future examination. GriI•DnAUL.--Two foreign Jews, named Boare and Rechotz, were yesterday charged with having stolen a considerable quantity of cotton, and other goods, from the shops of different warehouse men in the City. It appeared, that they - went into the shop of Mr. Simpson, of St. Paul's Church-yard, and, tinder pretence of select ing goods for the foreign market, requested to see various patterns, which were willingly displayed to them. While the shopmen were busily einoloyed in searching for other goods, however, the pi i goners were observed secreting something under their coats, which, on examination, proved to be some pieces of muslin. They were, in consequence, secured, and taken to the Compter, and on their lodgit:gs, in Goodman's fields, being searched, other property of a similar description was found of the value of Sool., the greater part of which has since been claimed, and recognised as having been stolen front different warehouses, into which the prisoners had gone on pretences similar to those used to Mr. Simpson. They were fully committed for trial on three separate charges. ACCIDENTS AND OFFENCES, On Saturday se'imight, as a farmer was in search of a strayed ox on Halsdown, about six miles tient Exeter, at a little distance from the road, lie discovered a man lying in the thicket, almost lifeless, with his hands anti legs tied fast together. It appears that the poor nian (called G. lilanclitield) was knocked down and robbed by three footpads (seamen) on Sunday the 3d instant, who having rifled him of all he had, about five pounds, deliberated on murdering him, but aftt:rwards agreed to bind him fast and tin ow him into a hedge : remained in this cruel situation, without any sustenance, for &eves, days, and notwithstanding, when the tarmer Jibe' ated him, he had strength enough left to crawl to Stareross, upwards of live miles distance. He says he stitkred intolerable distress from the sNiil.llls Of insects and vermin of the common, which attacked and tormented him, without his being able to dislodge Wein from his body.

PROPRIETOR OF THE TIMES NEWSPAPER. Sin—My last communication to you, tfrongli the means of the public press, has not invited a reply ; thus I em led to presume that you are not only aware of the mischievous and unjust practice al your News Office, but by t h e continuance and increase of the evil, that you encouraL,Te, and even authorise it. I am happy you have afforded me an opportunity of vindicating myself and other Newsmen from a charge of neglect, which arises solely through your agents, and ci.tt confidently believe that you will not again issue the insidumrs charge in any of your future columns, and I may venture to predict that a ra pidly decreasing sale of your Paper will ultimately prove to )un the. effects of partiality anal undue preference. I am, Sir, your obedient Servant, W. MARTIN. No. 8, Cornhill, June 24, 1814. ELEGANT HOUSEHOLD FURNITURE.
