The Sessions were (lien milkweed to tUe red October. MIDDLESEX SESSIONS.•-•SATURD AT. . . 'math Johnson, a journeyman carpenter, was convicted of a brutal twit& upon the, wife of an induetrions trader: man. The defendant attacked the p e o se entrie i n the street. iteder the supposition that she was an unfortitnate female; she resented his overtures with some warmth, upon which he knocked her down, and with a blow on the mouth struck oat one of her teeth. A companion of the defendant was called to contradict the prosecutrix, at h eqivocaed so witch, that the Learned Chairman b told the u t he Jury was unworthy of belief. The CHAtustAN, in panting sentence, lamented that no 'decent woman could pass along the streets after enn-set, without being subjected to inselt. The defendant's conduct was most unmanly and brutal, and therefore he adjudged him to pay a tine of twelve pounds, with liberty to talk to the prosecntrix. Js. Beaches, a hackney coach maser, was indicted for a brutal assault on Jane Hitchcock. The prosocntrix stated, that the defendant hail married her sister, anti treated her so ill that they were obliged to separate. On the .slay mentioned in the indictment, her sister went to see her daughter at the defendant's house, in Chrney-mee s. Thor:Omagh-street, when the defendant came out, seized her and dashed her with peat .violence upon the pneinent. She got up again, and he seized her rotted the waist, for the purpose of (seating her in the same brutal manner, when witness cang . ht him by the arm, and entrraleil he would not murder her sister; upon which de fendant directed his fury towards the prosecurrix, ku.wked der down. with her head °iron the kith stone; and. whilst she was tr.vn, be had the brutality to expose her person to the view of the people who had collected. It was admitted that. the defendant's wife had broken his windows before he hail commenced any violence. The Jury forted the defendant guilty. The Outsmart said he hardly knew how to deal with a person who had been guilty of such barbarous and unmanly canduct. He had toanorer not only for a cowardly anti ontrageons assault upon a Itelplessiemalt!, but also for . an offence against public decency, in the mature of tlie un happy woman's person. He should, therefore, let the ease stand by, to give the defendant an opoortnnitv of doing something which should relieve him from the just severity of that pneisinnent which the Court should feel itself bound to Inflict. In shoat hail an hour afterward., it was announced to the Court that the defendant had made such terms with the prosecutriz as were satisfactory. A 6oe of one shilling was then imposed upon him, and he .was discharged. Richard Amor was indicted for an assault upon Priscilla Pinnioa.—The defendant was a beadborough, and carried on the buainees of a baker. He had summoned the pro. secutrix's husband iu the Court of Requests for a debt, and on the dty mentioned in the indictment, called at the house of the latter, to know whether the summons had been received. He saw the proseentrix, who told him she knew nothing about it. The defendant afins2d her in the grosseAt terms. and, without any provocation, knocked her down four or tire successive timer with his staff of 061 m, leasing her weltering in her blood. The defendant railed two or three witnesses in his de.' ferpte„ who completely corroborated the case' for 'the pro- secution, . • • The Jury found him guilty, and the Coast sentenced him to pay . * fluent tweive•pentols, er itti.iih t .„ 7 , to Speak to the prosecutrit: .Thrse Hendon% ended to.lay. see.

POhl C.E. • UAW STIIIIIT.—.COVIDIT thaonst NUISANCES.—Sator rIay, the proprietors of•the Old and New Hummums, in Covent. Garden, applied to the Sitting Magistrate (Mr. Haw). for his advice how to proceed under the folio,' foil e ircumetaaces:-&-.They . -stated, that they suffered very ) material injury in these • butioess. in consequence of their houses beteg so blocked up with market carts, that hem usidqight.to tea or Nevelt o'clock in the forenoon, egress 1 * yttrium watzlinoat isnpossible. Gentlemen sojourning 411111elt bens*', end wishing to .leave town early in the morning, were under the necessity of walking to the bottom of Southampton Street, in the Strand,Mefore they could get todbeirnarrierea; mid the noise and confusion' weft .almost insufferable. These nuisances had vet., materially increased of lets, in consequence, as it appeared 'to illesi , of lbe.lressees of the Market under the Duke of , Bedford having let off every foot of the market ground to tataltiteepets of every deglutition, to the total exclasion'of ltbegrowers, who were do. consequence obliged to ma ke ' One Wes, is the eernettading streets. The applicants ,humbly etibmilted. that unless this s tate of thin g s was 'Altera* It would be :utterly impossible for them to carry on thole business.. , • , .., Mr. Haate,expinalndhle surprise that they should apply to him on the subject; hot it bad, he said, become quite a Whim' lately log people to call upon the Magistrate to do those things which they ought to do themselves. In bhe present case, the remedy was entirely in their own ands, if they would bet bestir themselves. Mr. Hewitt (of the Old Hummums) replied, that they bad rep!atedly complained to the constables and beadles of the parish, but their complaints produced no good ef f ect 'rhymer; de the contrary, the nuisance was becoming More and more intolerible every week. I Me, HALLS—Bat why depend upon the constables, when the Metropolis Paving Act empowers soy person what ever to seize an obstruction and convey it to the Green Yard? Mr. Hewitt said. it would be quite impossible for him or the other parties complaining to go shoot such a ser vice. Hundreds of leaded carts and waggons were ar. ranged along the streets, and the horses taken away. It was sot to be supposed that be and his friends could hire ether horses to drag those waggons and carts to the Green Yard; and even If they did. how were they to withstand the violent opposition which would be made by the owners? The Magistrate said he did not think it was so serious an affair as they seemed to apprehend; but, if they thonght proper, they might proceed by the more tedious, and less effective mode--by information ; and he would do all in his power to abate the nuisance complained of.—lnform ations were Geer..Jingly laid. against several substantial growers, sod summonses issued thereupon. Tot BAsses.-Eight more bakers were convicted in the usual penalty of 40e. and costa, for selling " 'telt-quer tern" loaves, on the information of Johnson. There was nothing interesting in any one of these case.. Maateneoutin STEEKT.—(tII Satunlay, John Brennan, a tailor, of Carborton-street, Fitzroy-srptare. charged four fema l es. the eldest of whom was not sevent-en years of age. with leaving robbed bim, at 12 o'clock on Friday night, of his hat, which cost him twenty-seven shillings, a blue hag. containing a gentleman's dressing gown, which he had brought from the Temple, and would not hare lost for ten guineas, and a sovereign. A young man, named Cody, was pot to the bar with the female prisoners, as a participator in the business. The tailor's story was as follows :—lie was going' home through St. Giles 5, when he fell in with two of the girls, who ushered bim to their lodgings at a notorious h 'use, kept by Mrs. Cody. at No. 9. Maynard-street. St. Odes's, a house from the window of which a man was thrown a few days since. Struck with the extreme youth of one of the girl., be lectured her upon the immoral comae of life in which she had embarked ; but not suiting toe example to the precept. he immediately gave the ladies three shil lings to briog in gin and beer. When this potation was finished, be yielded to the entreaties of the ladies to re plenish the bottle, and rave one of them a sovereign to procure the supply. This lady's name was " long Jane," .and she was not now forthcoming; neither was she on the preceding night, for she decamped with the sovereign, the bag. and the hat. The other ladies retired soon after, leaving the tailor to brood over his loss. He naturally be came vehement when he lost the solace of the ladies com pany, and the comfort of the twenty-seven shilling hat, and the blue bag. with the Templar's dressing gown: but was soon obliged to decamp himself, for another girl, and a young thief las the tailor described a lad who entered the mom with ber) menaced him fiercely, if be remained " row. ing ;" lie w a s,-therefore, under these circumstances , un der the necessity of retiring down stairs, and he carried with him for his protection the candlestick e hich stood on the table, and the pewter quart out of which the ladies were drinking whilst he was lecturing. In this state, without his diet or bag, and armed with the pewter and brass, he request ed the aid of two watchmen whom lie found in the street. i'They agreed to go to the honer, hut, upon ascending the I staircase, they refused to advance to the room, cursed the tailor, and sent him about his business. lie then repaired 1 to the watch-house, where the constable of the night said he could do nothing for him, unless ha brought the parties before him. 'l'be tailor complained bitterly of the con stable's supineness, and said that a woman who sat next him appeared to be the real constable of the night, and had jibed mid jested' upon his misfortune. The watch• house door was then shut in his face, and, recollecting that it was time for him to move houniwards, be covered his head with the tail of his 'salami', and went home. It would seem, from the statement he made to the Magistrate, that he let his wife into the secret of his mishap, for, upon his getting oat of bed at six o'clock the next morning to leave home, she followed hitn, and, as women are often wiser in their generation that men, she rapped up a constable, and tracked her Wiliam'. to the house in Maynard-street, St. Giles's. Upon arriving there, the tailor found a young man named Cody, the son of the keeper of this den of in famy, opening the shutters. Cody asked him what he wanted ; he said, " Really. Sir, I don't come here without business ; I want my hat and my bag, of which the girls robbed me up stairs last night." Mr. Cody was of course perfectly ignorant of having improper company in Ms noose; nevertheless, he accompanied the tailor, his wife, and the constable up stairs. Upon arriving at the second floor back room. " There is the spot" said the tailor. Cody knocked, and three of the ladies at the bard , opened the door. Then followed the tailor's interrogatious, l "Gins, keep the sovereign , Lin t g ive me the hat and the bag." Cody affected to be very angry at the girl's fingering any man's property, and asked what they had cane with it. One of them desired bias to go to Mrs. Clanchy's, in Church-line, where " hang Jane" had taken it. Cody went accordingly. and retnrned, saying that Mrs. Clanoity knew nothing about the business. He was, therefore, very sorry he could render no farther service to the tailor. The girls, übn evinced the most hardened profligacy, denied all knowledge of the roldiery, upbraided the tailor for his inconst alley In his wife, and said, that when he west 1 this m orning he asked them for gin. They had all, it tip *eared. interchanged their.clothes, to puzzle the tailor 0 his identity, but he ne ore he knew them front their faces. Mr. CONANT staid they must lied hail on suspicion of the olsiv. i : ..; i Cody asked for what he , was to find hilt? ~ at r. t...unaslT.---FOr keeping, this ,iitottletly house. •• • Cody,-.1 know nothiLg of the Loose,. except to ledge ;Isere. • Mr. Cita:yr.—What's your btftitie,ii—l Wind ' 4e hackney coacher at the theism' at iiight.

A person of the name of Williams stood charged for an ,asseult and an attempt to resents a prisoner, in Long Acre, ream Leary, a watchman, who, with another watchman , proved the assault, and he was ordered to find hail.—Mr. dates, a parish constable, and a ;minim. and glazier, at No. 26, King street, Bloomsbury square, was then charged :for the same offence. Mr. Acres, in liis defence, said that !he and. a Mr. Woodroffe were together, and seeing six or !seven watchmen drag one unfortunate woman with • great t-toelty,.lte'only'rebnonstrate.l with them by observing that There were plenty of them to bring -one female with more jt tntlenese:—The eatchtners persevered in their charge. and after an adMonitioti from the Magistrate (a ho observed that protection, and not opposition, should be expected froM a constabley; be was ordered to find hail. Jaynes Larkin. the driver of the hachnercoach 289, ap pe.ired at this office on Saturday, to e summons charging him it ith an imposition as to his fare, of rather a novel de scription. Mr. Tribe, a respectable wine merchant, resid ing in . Woodstock Street, Oxford Street, stated that on the 31st instant be had a party of friends spending the evening at his holm, and about II co!clock, when they were about to depart, the defendant was called with his roach from the Stand, to cony...) , some of the party as far as Marshaen Street, Westminster. When the defendant drove up to the door. Mr. Tribe, in order that his friends should have no trouble or delay when they got home, paid the coach man the fare he demanded, which was 25., unknown to Ibis Ifriends. One of them, when they were getting into the coach, asked the defendant how much his fare was. Upon which Mr. Tribe said, "Oh, I have settled that—l have paid the fare." " Not you, indeed," said the defendant, " yoU have not paid me a farthing." Mr. Tribe asserted Isis having paid him the fare, and the drfend int as positive ly denied having received any money, and the consequence was, that the party were so touch alarmed at a man who could have the effrontery ant diihonesty to deny the fact, they refused to proceed in his coach and discharged him; Mr. Tribe at the same time taking down his number. Mr. I Tribe now positively swore to his tiering paid the 2s. to the defendant, and Alr..CoNaarr asked the cuacbmsn what answer he had to make to this charge. The defendant said, that the accusation against him was altogether filar. He had not received a farthing from the gentleman, and the whole story was an invention, for he hail no conversation at all with any Of the party until they were getting into the coach and asked hint his fare. air. CONANT asked Mr. - Tribe if any person saw hint pay the money to the de fendant, not that he (Mr. Cosaxe) had the slightest. doubt as to the tenth of air. Tribe's statement; but as the frodant still so positively persisted, it would be as well Katy Person witnessed the transaction. Mr. Tribe said, that two of his servants saw him pay the 2s. to the defendant, but Ise did not think it necessary to bring thew with him : bow. Ever, if the Magistrate would adjourn the case for a short time, they should be provided. Alr. Tribe further observed. that the denial of the offence now by the defendant appeared very singular. because he had that inarnino called upoo Mot, Mr. Tribe, an , l with tears in his eyes acknowledged that lie had received the money, and entreated, on emotes of hislirgefamiy, baying. as he sail, six opildren, that im might be forgiven; but Mr. Tribe twill that he thought be owed to'the public to bring such a rase before the Magis trate. air. Conant asked the defendant what be meant b ge denying now what he had acknowledged in the seotniag. He replied that be never had acknowledged He merely called to request ti:at be might nut bring the case forward, because lie knew that' at all events he shou ld be fined; hut as for re. ceiving the fare, as stated, lie never ilid, Ma. Conant asked him if lie wished the case put off until other wit nesses could be brought forward to corroborate the evidence of Mr. Tribe. The defendant said be saw no use in putting it off, for it would be all the same to him in the end, but be would never scknowldege the charge against him, al though he could not disprove it. There messed now to be some doubt as to how the defendant became liable to a pe• natty isi this case, as he had been discharged by . the party and did not refuse to carry them, nor did be receive more than his proper fare had be so carried them. Mr. Conant, howiver,decided that the defendant having been called front his stand and discharged without his coach being made use of, he became entitled to Is. ; hut in this instance he re ceived 25., and kept them, to which he clearly had no rig, and for this overcharge lie tined the defendant in a penalty of 10t, and 6s. caste. Mr. Tribe said, that understanding the man really had a large family, he lied determined to relinquish the penalty, whatever It might be, in bis favour, and he would himself have been the costs out of pocket, had it not been for the impudent manner in which ha still persisted in denying what he (Mr. Tribe) hail solemnly sworn to. Mr. Tribe said he now wished the penalty to be given to any charity Mr. Conant thought proper. The defendant said he could not pay the penalty, and his mistress, who was present, refused to pay it for him. He was therefore committed fur 1-I d cos to the House of Correction. • MAILLIBOIIettGrt STSZET.—{In Saturday, nonce Farmer, alias Edwards a man who had been a butler In several families, but latterly has thought proper to adopt a living of a more questionable kind, and /Valiant Li.tdang ton, were brought before Mr. Alderman Consist, charged with liousedimak- Ing.
