He was happy to think he had not killed the General ; as yet he might live to repent of the injury which he had dohe to a fellow -creature, who had never injured him. QUEEN SQUARE.—Yesterclay a Corporal of the First Regiment of Foot Guards came to this Office, for an officer, to take charge of a man, for assaulting a sentinel on his post. This measure was adopted in consequence of the decision. of the Magistrates of this Office, that the military hate no right to take persons into custody themselves, but to give any offender in custody to a constable. All the officers of the three Regiments of Foot Guards, it is said, have rlicettled to this opinion, only that any non-comusissioned !'ollicer or soldier shall be at liberty to detain such offender 'till a constable shall arrive: • This being now understood, the Magistrate instantly dispatched au officer ; .with the CorPotal to bring the man before him. The accused being placed at the bar, he said his name was John Tibby, residing at No. 13, Lancashire -court, New Boid-street. anti was-by trade a tailor. ' — Georg( 'nimbi, private in the Ist Regiment of Foot Guards, stated that,• about twelve o'clock yesterday, he was on duty at the New Barracks, Pimlico. Tbe prisoner was committing a nuisance against the wall of the Palace Garden, and he ordered him away away, but he refused. ,The soldier then reported bits to the nett sentry, and the word passed to the Serjeant of the Guard at the Guard 'House, Buckingham Gate, who brought up the relief. and le by this time had the prisoner in his bug. He ran out and attempted .to escape.. bat wee followed acid secured, after rot resistance, and: lodged in the guard house the pationer admitted having attempted to escape, not knowing what was the charge intended to be brought against him. He.was willing to apologise to the soldier. The hlaglatrate said he was glad to see the soldier had acted strictly to.the orders be received; It did not matter whether it was the King's property or the property of any private indiriduol, that wet injured; each had an equal right of being protected, and the public shoOhl know they are nut to trespass on either with 'impunity. In • a recent case, where the military had bean involved, language bad been linvited to him in the public papers-which he never had expressed, which was highly improper. If the Guards were disposed to prosecute in this case, be would sail upon the prisoner to find bail. The Serjeant said, if the prisoner had gene away when or'ored to do so, no further notice would have been taken ; and no v, having expressed contrition, that was quite satis ' factory. The prisoner was then discharged. WORSIII I* STR EMT. —THE SILK WlCAVZlLS.—Yesterday, as soon as Mr. Bennett took his seat, and was informed that Mr. Newberry, Jun. of the firm of Newberry and Sons, London Wall, was in attendance, agreeable to his request on Wednesday, he immediately entered into conversation with him respecting the work the men had out, unfinished, at the present prices ; and that as this was an accidental circumstance, where they were not in fault, it would be but fair to let them be finish. d at the prices agreed upon.— Mr. Newberry said he had no objection ; that they had also his consent to apply to the Magistrates of " The Liberty of the Tower" forlan assimilation of wages ; but whether • Magistrates of Middlesex would reduce their prices to • " The Liberty of the Tower" standard, or whether the Magistrates of " The Liberty of the Tower" would raise ' theirs to those of Middlesex, tie could net tell. Ile further stated, that the workmen in their employment were quite well satisfied (from the quality of the materials they re. ceive) to take the present prices of" The Liberty of the 'Power.;" but then they, as their employers, dare nor, as the iaw now stands, pry them that, without incurring a penalty. of 50/. for every such offence.

The TiliPwirig are the pirt• enfars.:—Abaut the Middle of last Notenthe', 3 bons were taken up on suspigiou in the Borough. High Street he 0, &Mils and John Bilsellty, two of the Llow•iteeet ‘ll 7 police, ;and taken before Alderman' Joshea* Jonitflis Smithet the Town Hill. In the hat of dui of than, nature John dallinger, 3 silk handketehiefs were found, hut for which no - own,r appearing, the partieS• (they having bees firqUentlybefore convicted) worst orntetweil to the. tread mill at Brixton, as repined thieves, Qu the following der a woulan;named Cobham, a dealer in wiaringapplrel,llec, li n the Maze, appeared to claim the handkerchiefs as Ler property, bet bring unable to describe them to the aegis gr. te's satisfaction, they remained in the hands of Smith. !This Smith in conjunction with a coder, or assistant fa; lower, plying at the Town Hall, named Wifliaots , eonrerted a fraudulent scheme by which to enrich themselves atti:e 'expense of all parties ; and in furtherance of tio•ir.proi se i, held meetings at the Black Ball, in the High Street, the coiner of Fishmonger's Alley, and, their plans ripe for execution, the woman Cohlrein was waited on by these tiro worthies, and every art and persuasion used to urge her to prosecute the boys at the sessions, rs lien she was told she would be certain to recover the property, though they well knew the culprits were then snarling the punishment at the law, and to which she at length consent-d. This point gained, a few days more were suffered to escape, when the brother of the boy Ballinger, a poor hut ire dostrious man, was attacked, and his :feelings tampered with by the assnrance that if his brother sins prosecuted, transportation would certainly folio., ; but that the wetter might he silenced on certain terms. The attempt succeeded, and the dupe of their artifice agreed to to-et and satisfy them at their place of rendeavous, the Black Bull, where they received to the amount of a sovereign, wrung from the hard earnings of the conspeseionete brother. " This far they run before the wind ;" they next double, and re trace. their steps to the woman Cohlain, whom they dece,, by terrifying relations of actions of false inipriso ment,, &e. to forego. the thoughts of roseention, come to terms with them fur the handkerchiefs '. infamy of such proceedings, rousing the honest indigra Boa of others in the secret, the whole affair was toad. kuwu to the inspector', of the Bow Street Police for the district, Mr. Drew, who immediately laid the matter before Sir Rieman D BIRNIE, at Bow Street, when a strict in• vestigation was entered into, and severe' persons anion.: them, the elder Ballinger, examined upou oath ; the resu.:l of which was prompt dismissal of Smith, and the fur• warding a - copy of the depositions to Ur, Aid. Sours, before whom the other offender was called, and underwent a strict exatnivation, and who was finally, after receiving well merited rebuke for his offence, expelled from the office. Both the parties are liable to indictments. LONDON MARKETS. CITY, Demme. SI, 1642. BACON.—The Government contract for nearly 6,000 tierces of Pork having been made at a. high price, the dealer/ in Bacon are more anxious than before to obtain from the manufact tr;rs engagements for future supplies. Unless something happen to check it, the present spirit of speculation will force prices sti'l higher.—On board, 495. to 51s. Landed, 51s. to 535. BUTTER.—The Butter market is pretty steady es to pric..4 ; but, as the Dutch markets have (ellen considerably, it will. if the weather continue mild and the ports open, make it a tic's• lisp trade during the next three mouths. Indeed, whichever way it may be, there can be no gond done: almost all stock here is indifferent in quality, though broughl at per; prices; and this circout sta nee compels the trade to go on p ing advanced prices for fresh goods. On board: Carlow, vkb. to 91s. Belfast. 00s. Dublin, 83s. to 863. W a terford, till. to 85s. Cork..6os. Limerick, tits. to 85s.— Landed: Carlon, 935. to 945. Belfast, 9.15.. Dublin, Fibs. to 86s. Waterford, 83a. to 83s. Cork, 84s. Limerick, 84s. CHEESE.—The stocks in the country are becoming. sere low; especially in Cheshire, where hardly a dairy of 6ce old Cheese is to be obtained at any price. But in London the trade is not brisk, the prices being too high for the public; notwithstanding the liberality of the retailers. who, contrary to3the unfashioned mode of doing business, strive to undersell one another, instead of striving which shell get the highest prices. No material variation la prices during the last two or three weeks.
