This infamous system was practised by the prisoners towards the prosecutor ; but one of them, being pursued, was overtaken and secured. The other was traced to his lodgings. Huth prisoners were fully committed. Tuesday, 0. Newton, 12 years (if age, was charged under the following circumstances. J.

He then ran away, and in a few moments the prisoner rushed in, seized a dress, and ran away. The witness pursued, and took him into custody, with the property in his possessim. At this period the prisoner's father stated, that his sun had been led to his present abandoned state by the asylum that was afforded him in a public house in Skinner-street, Bishopsgate, which was the common resort of the worst of characters, men, women, and children. Here he was frequently found playing at cards and skittles ' and even associating with peobtittars, hi st -n.4l le r and himself kid remonstrated with the proprietors, and en deavoured to draw him from the house, but in s Mu. At length the father summoned the proprietor before the Lord Mayor. Several City Odieers deposed to the truth of the statement re specting the house heing the constant renderv-us of the most abandoned characters. The prop' ietor (a Mrs. Roper), who was in attendance upon the summons, acknowiedgeil that the house had formerly borne a brd character, but assured his Lordship that it by no means deserved such an appellation at present. As to the prisoner, she, as aril as her husband. hail feequently end tavoincd to drive him away, but he persevered in his visits. She said, the boy was in the habit of stralite.l pro oerty from time to time, which was received by his parents. This charge the parents denied.

Esq. on Monday. It WWI an information laid by a gentleman who purchases manure in town, and sends it to his farm lu carts or w•iggons through Tyburn Turnpike, against John Adams, the collector of the trills at Tybitrii•gate, for demanding 3d per load on every cart load of nr. e passing thimigh the said gate, contrary to the 13111 of the King, ern $l, which subjects the collector to the penalty of 40a. and the firmer of the said gale to 51. it they demand more or less than what is expressed in the Act of Parliament. Mr. Fielding said, that the wishes of the Legidatitre at the forming of the Art was very evident ; that his opinion was in unison with those wishes, that a load of manure might go from London to York through all the gates, and not pay one farthing toll; bit the present inhirmation was dismissed on account of its being under au act which was not at all applicable to the case. A fire broke out on Wednesday night, in the premises of Sir J. Elmer, which were occupied by a druggist, in Gloucester court, Whitt-cross street, in the parish of St. Luke. The whole of the building was consumed, and six of the neighbouring hews met the same fate. Last week a tire broke out in a wood near Cranbrooke, called Ansley Wood. the property of the Rev. J. Cramer Ro berts; through the active exertions of the inhalOtants, it was happily gut miller after burning nearly three hours, and de stroying about 70 acres of wood; the damage is computed at se veral bundled pounds. Monday night, Mr. Raymond, of Drury-lane Theatre, met with a very serious accident. He was busied behind the scenes at the Opera-house ; when one of the wings, by some misma nagement as as thrown down. The. wooden frame struck him on the head with great violence. lie was stunned by the blow, and lay for some time senseless. Surgical aid was immediately Procured; and, after the usual remedies had been resorted to with success, Mr. Raymond was removed to his house. A rubber• of considerable *magnitude has taken place in the course of the week; but the principals concerned in it 1141'4 not yet been discovered. It appears that Lord Derby, in the country, having occasion to remit to town 2.0001. enclosed the same in two or more franks by post, but they hays' never come wham'. The 'Martinis of Sulisbitry, the new Postmaster general, attended au investigation at the Post-office en Wed day on the subject, lint without bringing to light any fitets which were likely to lead to the discovery of the villains. A horriblo scene took place on the 19th ult. in the commune of Mery des Bois, canton of Chapelle d'Angui lon, in France. A mikc. remit entered a house in order to rob it of 80 louts, and bad the ferocity to put to death a young man and two girls who were in at the time. The assassin was afterwards taken. HT TIT I.
