'IP ,POI.IOE. e —www.-- )11beentess Hooeno—Yesterdaya female of elegant appear 00110naltpat to tin bar in the Dame of Mg. Emmen, and .44. elm* with having frandulently,and upon false pretences, nts from Mr. Meets Caohmorejeweller,of Nevis-Marks, jeer. pm the amount of 70t. Mrhmore stated that the pritonnr kept a dashing house at No. 9, Manchester Buntlines. Witness had, through the medium of the lady's agent or broker, Mr. Jitarnet, fir a long time pestolastmunted small bills for her, all of which he believed had been honoured. All these bills were in the itemeof Elizabeth Emmen, aed in all his transactions with her be understood that was her amides name, and that she was a single woman. She at length made from him a porch** of jewellery to the amount of 701. and gave him as security a warrant of attorney on her goods, in the name of Emmer. The purchase was made in May ; but subsequently he found it necessary to put in force the warrant, when the prisoner got ei.i of its consequences by swearing that she was not a single but a married woman, and that her name was Elizabeth Suzy or Saxhy. The wit ness swore positively that be only let her have the goods upon the belief that she was a single woman. Barnet Barnet, the broker or agent of the prisoner, swore that he had always acted for her as a single woman,and that her name was not El a. Emmer. On behalf of the prisoner a professional gentleman at. tended, and put several objections, which were overruled by the LORD M acon . He oir.red to prove that the prisoner had gone by the name of Saxhy, and was reputed to be a married woman ; but the Lord Atayor considered that the rase sworn to by the posecntor was so clear as to render it imperative upon him to send i t to a Jury to try its merits.— The prisoner was therefore ordered to be committed on the charge of obtaining the goods fraudulently, but it was inti mated that good bail of twice the amount of the goods would be taken for her appearance. A second charge was made against the prisoner by a poor looking man named Joseph Crabhe. He stated that be bad let the prisoner have a blue satin pelisse, in the belief that she was a single woman, when it turned out afterwards that she was married. She told him her name was Mrs. Emmer. The loan ifsvow.—Did yes ask her whether she was a single woman? Prosecutor.—No, my Lord; I dont not ask such a fine lady as this whether she was married or not. The LORD MAYOR.—Then as she called herself Mrs., bow catneyou to believe that she was single; single women generally rail themselves Misses? The Prosecutor.—l judged her to be single fr.►m her actions. The Lone I'Aloll.—Judge her to be single by her ac tions; what action?_ _ _ . The Prosecutor.—Why, if s';• had been a married wo- Vllll,. I should have. thonght she would not have had a stranze eaptain living alone in the house with her. (Much laughter.) . The prisoner, who, doting the examination. had smiled at the charge, and conducted herself with easy elegant?, here became greatly incensed, said the captain who lodged in her house uas a gentleman of honour and respectability, a” , t it was a shocking thing that a set of vile Jews should he ;Mewed to come and swear against her. She knew very ta-e:1 they were all leagued together. It was stated to the Lord Mayor that there was a lalla• bet of o!her cases which would be brought against the pri stmeras soon as her apprehension became known. The Lune NATOR was of opinioa that the charge of ob taining by false pretence bad not been made out in the last case. It was there only a matter of debt for which the party might recover at law. The first eve his Lordship thought uas sufficient to send her to trial upon. —The pri soner was then committed in default of bail. _ _ THE LATE FATAL ACCIDENT AT BILLINGSGATE.-Mr. Saunders, a respectable fishmonger residing at Billings gate, and one of the Common Lonna], appeared (accom. puled by a number of persons residing at and connected with the market) to complain of the erection at the entrance of the u:arltet of a barrier, which he slid, bad been the °c ession of the lee fatal accident, and now twined an ob struction which endangered the lives of all data who transacted business there. The Officers of the Market stated, in answer to the Lord Ivor, that this barrier (formed of planks nailed to a row of rites) hid been made at the direction of a Committee of the C. rporatiom for enabling the poor to get on heard the boar and buy their own oysters, instead of employing per sons by whom they were defrauded. The LOIID MAYOR said, the case was one of a highly im portant and serious nature. As the erection had been made at the instance of a Committee of the Cotto ration, his Lordship seas of opinion th at the evidence ongit to b e laid before them in the first instance. He therefore gave in structions that the Committee should be galled together to receive the evidence. giving such directions for the al teration or removal of the barrier as they might think proper. Nom days since a person was summoned before the Sit ting Magistrate, (Alderman CON), at the Mansion House, on a charge of having ex .* .1 his worldly calling against the statute, by deliver m: parcels on the Lord's Day. The bea dle who gave evidence, stated on that occasion, that the prosecution was instituted at the instance of Dr. Heaketh, the Rector of St. Dunstan's. That gentleman &Vended since before Aleirnan Scholey, and stated that the prosecution nes institt.te I without his knowledge, and complained of the unwarraotable use made of his name in the case. Out LOH.% Justice Ro was thronged yesterday with a host of Jews, and a number of receivers of stolen goods, to sc itness the re-examination of James Ifrebh and Isaac Hanle, who were charged, the former with commit ting a robbery in the warehouse of Mr. Thomas Payne, 23, Wood-street, Cheer side, and the latter (a Jew), with receiv ing the property, knowing it to have been stolen. Each party was provided with an attorney. Mr. Humphries for the prosecoton ; Mr. Butler (Mr. Haritier's Clerk) for the prisoner WI bb, and Mr. Isaacs for the Jew. The prosecutor has a wholesale ribband warehouse on the first Boor of 23, %tiood,treet, and the prisoner Webb works as a journeyman in a ululating and fringe manufac tory on the floor above. About twelve monthsago, the key was unaccountably lost. and another was provided without changing tie heir - . Within the last three months property has at various times been missed from the warehouse, and this, as there appeared to lave been no forcible entry, brought to mind the lost key. On Saturday, the 19th of July, Mr. Payne t awing taken Lie stock on that day, the errand boy was set to watch in a warehouse oPposite, and saw Webb urlock the door of Mr. Payne's warehouse, and go in. He remained there live or ten minutes, and on re turning left the door locked, as he had found it. The boy saw no properly in Webb's possession, but on examining the stock goods to the amount of la or 121. were gone. The per , od from that time till Friday, the Ist of August, seems to hare Leen u. copied in consulting what steps should he falter, and of tl.is consultation it is supposed Webb got sonic itaimation ; Cie on the evening of that day. a man maned Wills, uho was at that time on the watch fu Mr. Payne's warehouse, braid the door unlocked, and immediately beard Webb say alond, " Mr. Payne has left his key in his door." Wrhb then locked the door, took the key up stairs, and frve it to one of the lads there, telling 1 • the same story, that he bad found it in the door, and desired hits to give it to any of 11r. Payne's people. This key turned out to be tie identical one lust twelve months This new discovery determined them to charge the prisoner with the robbery ; he at first stoutly denied it, but on being told that they had evidence to !vase his being in the warehouse on the I . 9th °idols., be beg t oci for merry, and confessed the robbery of that day. Nothing was then said about any receiver of the property, hot subsequently, after promises that lenity would be skew:: him if he told i all, be owned to robberies et ether timik tied dame he had' disposed of she Poorrty afiek e, A J, .$,.,, be was is the habit of meeting asirdetniest. Me hod meet list he said, on the dayWedes_perrisos. trash, meet him again that very evening. To prove thornlike( this gen foaled, four pietes of riband were put hike hie posseseiee to give to the supposed receiver. Turapeway, the °Seer, attended at the place of meeting—the rallies at the south end of St. Martio's-le-Grapd; the prisoner Harris was there to his appointment. Webb, after delivering bins the fear pieces of riband, gate a amain signal, and the Meer dies advanced and took them both into custody. Two Oldie pieces Harris was seen to throw front him, and the other two were found in his .pocket. On these facts Mr. lams contended there was nothing I to affect his client (Harris). as Webb bad not stoles the riband the former was seen to have received front bins, Mr. Humphries allowed this, but said the transaction was evidence of the guilty transaction between him and Webb; and as the latter had confessed, be would, on ac count of his contrition, forego the prosecution against him, and make him a ultimo, against the receiver. Mr. Harmer's clerk objected to this, inasmuch as there was no evidence of the felony by Webb, other than his own confession, which, having been obtained under winless of mercy, was of DO avail againt him. Mr. HUAIPHRITB said Webb's confession as to the first robbery was voluntary, and before any promise was made. Mr.UUTLER thought the confession must be taken as a whole. At all events, observed Mr. ISAACS, every tbiog Webb confessed relative to my client was stated after the promise of mercy, and Cannot therefore be used as evitlyace. Mr. Alderman Cox thought snfficieat bad appeared to warrant hint in sending the case to a jury. Hut on the sug gestion of Mr. Humphries, that he could procure other and farther evidence, he consented that the prisoners should be remanded for a future heating. • HOW•IITREETe•••COVILTT TO AK APPRIPITICT.•••,/aOlei Thomas, a clock-maker, re/Minket Kentish Town, attended before the Sitting Magistrate, Mr. HALL, to answer to a charge preferred against bins by his apprentice, Charles Leader, a boy about 14 years of age, of repeated acts of cruelty. It appeared from the evidence of the boy, support. ed by that of his father, that the defendant bad frequently struck him with undue violence, and particularly about three weeks back, when he beat bins with a large stick, which was broken in three pieces by the violence of the blows, and that without any adequate provocation. Mr. Thomas, in listening to the boy's story, used some expressions which evinced the warmth of his temper, and confirmed, in some measure, the complaint which was made. Three persons were called by him to disprove the statement of the boy, but their testimony.went rather to strengthen than to diminish the effect of his evidence. Mr. HALL animadverted strongly on the conduct of a master who could so far forget the duty he bad undertaken, and directed that the boy should be removed from him, and that he should refund 81. of the premium which be had re. Mead as an apprentice fee. Mr. Thomas quitted the Mike, protesting against the in justice with which be had been treated, and declaring that be should seek redress elsewhere. Hamer-Ganoce.—.Yeeterday a boy named Jedut Mee, only eight years old, of diminutive stature, was *eight before the Magistrate, by Lisabriek. charged with, la majarsetlisa with others, attempting to break Into the premises of Mr. Doha Leeson, landlord of the Wenatsiteal pahlie home, Pancras. Mr. Leeson stated. that on the nights of Saturday. Sunday, and Monday, his house bad been attempted ' • th e fit time the robbers were making as entrance through the skylight, bat were frustrated by some a the family going down stairs; the second visit they made they took down one of the shop shut ters, but before they finally effected ea entrance they were again disturbed. On the preceding night one of the servants weut into the skittle ground. which is enclosed with a fence, to fasten the gate, when she was terribly shinned at finding the prisoner lying concealed ender one of the benches; the little delinquent was dragged forth and delivered over to Limbrick I she was called in. He centimes/id that a me whom he shooli know again by sight put him over the fence, sad desired him to conceal himself, where he was found, till became male, and then to unbolt the yard door and give him entrance. He was taken to the cage, where he was kept in the black hole all night, and in the morning the story he told was a repetition of what he bad stated the preceding night. Liesbrick said there could be no doubt but the delinquent, young as he was, was hardened In crime, for although he had described to Ida the punishment he would undergo, he ap peared callous to all fear. He was evidently the Instrument of experienced housebreakers, and no doubt had been en gaged in many enterprises; no less than twelve houses had been robbed in that neighbourhood within a very short period. The Magistrate inquired if there were any of the prisoner's friends present, or his parents. A ;poor woman stepped forward, and stated that the prisoner had been with her seven years; he was the natural child of a eoaebman of a well known Baronet; that he had been decoyed away by characters of the worst description ; and he was In the constant habit of running away, and absenting himself for days. She had tried all experiments with him, but he was quite Incorrigible. On Sunday afternoon he left her, after dinner, and she never saw or heard of him till now. _ . The Magistrate said it grieved him mach to see so young a child placed in so awful a situation ; that he was initiated with a gang of thieves there could he not the remotest doubt, and the only way to save him from destruction and ignominy, would be to send him to some place of confinement. He was then committed to the House of Correction till some arrangement is made for his future destiny. The magistrate promising to get him into the Refuge for the Destitute.

The Jury having consulted for about ten minutes, re quested a room to themselves, and retired. They returned in shoot a quarter of an hour, requesting the attendance of another medical gentleman. It was arranged that the overseers were to be applied to, that they might procure the attendance wished ; and the Jury adjourned till (our o'clock Ibis day.
