Neale, the officer, next preferred a charge against the prisoner Nieto'', of stealing the pocket of a lady named Milk, residing at No!fil, Oxford Street. The officer stated, that about half past ten o'clock, the lady came to him and said her petticoats had been raised, end her pockets, containing her purse, in which were six sore reigns and twelve shillings in silver, haul been cut from her, and that the robber was then in the gallery, dressed In a brown great coat. Ile, from the description, guessed it was Mason, having seen him enter the house, and im mediately took him into custudy,when Mrs.M. recognized him to be the fellow that robbed her. Unfortunately the lady was not present to speak to that fact, btu 0 was notorious that Mason was an expert thief, and had been more than once tiitol.

For a considerable time past the above neighbourhood has been subject to the most daring bet ' glaries and highway robberies, and lately th-y hay:- in creased to such an 'Laming degree, that scarcely a night has passed without a house being broken into and plun dered, or a passenger knocked down and robber'. The depredators generally Commence their operations between five and seven o'clue k in the evening, before the watch was set in that neighbourhood. Mr. Dowling, a gen tleman residing in Trafalgar Street, Watworth, slated, that thieves had affected an entry through the parlour window of a house last week, milady opposite to his, and carried off property to a large amount. On their way from the house in which the robbery had been corns matted, an alarm having been given. they threw part ef the property inside a railing in front of his parlour win dows, which was found by the pot buy when he brought about the beer at eight o'clock. Mr. Dowling was informed of the cireumstence, and anticipating their return for the bundle, he )l iced himself at his draw. log room window, anal haul not turn long in that situ.- lion when two Men mode their appearance on the oppo site side of the street ; after soma consultation they crossed over, and advanced to the place where at:y expected to find what they had thrown aside in their alarm. One of the fellows exclaimed to his companion • that the bag was gone." Mr. H. ran down stuirs for the purpose of securing them, lint they vanished in a moment. Mr. D. identified one of the abovementioned prisoners as the man Whom lie haul seen examitling iris area for the stolen property, ar.d added. that his house bed-been attempted several' times. Behind his and the adjoining houses there ea% a large vacant piece of ground intended for the building of a new churelt,where robbers were in the habit of assembling, anal were. dis tinctly heard whistling to each other, both before and after the commission of their depredations. Hall, the chief constable, stated that in consequence of information from the isst witness, he proceeded to Trafalgar Street, on Monday night, anal apprehended Pritchard and Keprel, both of whom he found luthipg about that street. the other two prisoners were spoken of by the officers as being of the very worst description. One of them had been reprieved a short time since from execution, and all the rest had suffered iutprisooment. The two former were remanded for another examination and Painter and Pugh were sent to Brixton as reputed thieves. is Early on Sunday morning, a young fellow, en apprentice to a coach trimming inanufActurer in Long Acre, who had been out drinking all the previous night, laid himself down In a state of intoxication upon one of the busk heads in the market house, Fleet market, and foil asleep. When awoke I shortly afterwards by the watchman, he found I imself nearly half undressed, having during his nap been rubbed of his boots from off his legs, his hat, his neck and pocket hand kerchiefs, and both his breeches pockets were cut awa y .— ' The thieves had got clear off with their booty."

GAMING. COURT OF KINDS BENCH.—Traspas. CRIM;NAL ISPORMATION. RIR HUDSON LORI Sy. MR. o'steana. The SOLICITOR (UNRRA L.—l rise, my Lord, to move for a tu'e to show -cause why a criminal information ehould not be filed against a person of the name of Barry O'Meara. I move at the suit of Sir Hudson Lowe, a Major General in the army, and formerly (;avel-nor of St. Helena, upon whose character certain Jihels have been published in a book, entitled A Voicel from St. Helena, written by Mr. O'Meara. On the departure of Bonaparte from this &tante!, Mr. O'Meara was appointed his surgeon, Rail accompanied him to St. Helena. where be continued for two years. The Loan Cum./US-OM—Mien did this publication flat rune ont ? The SoLictroe Grarreat —lt first came not during the last summer, hut there has been a late edition. Mr. Justice BATLZIN—Do you move then on some thing sew which appeared in the late edition ? Mr. SOLICITOR Unerettah.—No, my Lord ; bat your Lordship must be aware that it sometimes happens, a party may feel aggrieved at the publication of • work, but still abstain from a prim-ration, in the hope that it may remain unnoticed ; but if there.be a constant repeti• tion of the offence; then it may become necessary to seek redress. Mr. O'Meara was appointed surgeon to Bonaparte, on the express stipulation that he should maintain the character of a British officer—that be should remain in his Majesty's service, and receive his pay from the Eaglish Government, and not from Bona parte. However, it was during this time that he sac collecting the tneterisls for his libel ; and in consequence of Sir Hudson Lowe having discovered that be was in stramental in forwarding communications to certain persons in Europe, be was dismissed from his situation. On his return house, he pteferred charges against Sir Hudson Lowe, which were submitted to the consideration of the Admiralty, and the result was, that he was dismissed from the service. professedly and distinctly upon the statement he bad made of his own conduct. Sir Hudson Lowe has reason to believe, that in consequence of his dismissal, he has given a false colouring to his conduct, daring the time he held his very difficult and arduous situation, and he complains that the guatet part of the book con tains—not direct charges, but insinuations of such a character as not to be misunderstood. Most of these insinuations have been pot into the mouths of Buona parte and other persons, all of whom were dead at the time of the publication of the book. In various conver sations abeut Montholon, and Las Cases, he has made Sir Beason Lowe express himself in tha coarsest tetrns of their conduct. He is not conscious of even having spoken in such a manner ; but to show the want of faith on the part of O'Meara, there are, in the affidavits upon which this motion is founded, letters from him to Sir T. Reed and others, in which he describes Montholon as a " barefaced hypocrite—a notorious liar, who had re. sorted to every species of malice," and advised the Bri. till, offieca to be en their guard against bite. Las Casts, 'too, whom, far the purpose of this joutnal, lie ele. vates, he familiarly denominates a Jesuit, and speaks of him in the most .distespectfel manner. •• But that of which Sir Hudson Lowe most complains, is an intl. naation almost amounting to a direct charge that he was rietirous of shortening. the life of Bonaparte. He should point out the psssage, which conveyed the se rions imputatioa of yi hicvers h hione comthat ha plained. In rem-. senting a suppnsed ensiivrl taken place "hem een himself and Napoleon, lie makes him state that during the short interview be bad ball with Sir Neilson olatiere. he peopled to seud him (o'aleart) ae-ay, and to ...osisititate another surgeon in his steads and be con .,•eludes the conversation by making lioiaierte , say, "I sever saw such a horrid eountetanca,ls wad impossible to doubt that the object of that pessige was to insinuate that he (O'Meara) was to be retueveakfor the purpose of accomplishing the object to which bid' alluded —e Sir H. Lowe perfectly well recollectre the conversation which has eh en site to this statement; it was upon th occasion when Bonaarte Wasa' a• very bad stale of e health, and .he prop o sed that i Mr. Baxter, noir Dr. Baxter, should be called in to assist Mr. O'Meara in his attendance. The next "passage • to which Sir Hudson Lows objected ..was a conversstion between Bertrand, and Major Gorreqner, in which Bertrand is represented to have said " that the Governor's proceedingsare involved in so much obscurity and mystery, that some of the officers of the 53d regi• meat coucileing that there might be criminal intentions in view, had signified to them net be afraid, for that in she fill regiment there were neither • ins, nor eve eutioners to he found." Now this officer was dead before Mr. -Wiese:a had the audacity to publish this hook •, but t am sure, that it is quite impossible that a British officer, whatever might be his feelings or his sentiments, could suffer such language in his presence. Again, he makes Bonaparte say, that " Sir Hudson Lowe, like Cain, had a !nark set upon him, and hail he been pointed out to him in the streets of L ondon, and his opinion' being asked who he was. he should have said he was the hangman of the principality." Mr. Jestier BATIAT.- Do you state by whom the book was published? The Seateerne fiancee h.—We do, my Lord. Mr. Justice liavhae.—What means have you of know leg that ? The SOLICITOR GeN2Rat.—We have made all the • necessary inq '' a, and we bave ascertained that O'Meara is the author. Mr. Justice HEST.-IVhen was that copy published which you hold in year hand ? The SOLICITOR IiCNERAL.—About a week ago, my Lard, and at that time we ascertained that O'Meara was the author. Mr. Justice BRST.—Does your affidavit state that you did not know it before theft? The SOLICITOR GENERAL—Sir Hudson Lowe had the ordinary knowledge of leis hieing the author, which is common to every one; but it was only then it was ascer tained that O'Meara had authorised the publication of the last edition. The LORD CHIEF JUSTICE.—Our only difficulty is with respect to the lateness of the application. I take it 'hat it is a settled rule that von must apply for a cri minal information in the first term after the putilieation„ or at least 50 early in the second, as •to allow enfficiens time to chew cause before the third term why the rale should not be mole absolute. That certainly is the rule in all inform itions against elegistrates, and I am not prepared to say at this moment, that the same rule does not extend to all other persons, but tardiness always operates as an objection. The SaLICITOM tittNERAI..—My Lord, it sometimes happens that a party relying upon their own character, and lupin retie offence mty not be repeated, do not vish to collie into a Court of Justice until they are driven to it. ' Mr. C. Pet aurs.—Nly Lord, 1 can state from my own knowledge, that three different Grand Juries have sat since the last publication. The LORD CHIRP JUSTICE.—Mr. Phillips, do you ap• pear to show cause? Mr. Pio lad rs.—No, my Lord, but I mention the cir• co o-it:ince for your Lot diship's information. The SoLictToit IittNSRAL —Sir. H. Lowe had intro duced into his affidavit many circumstances to falsify I I O'Meara's statements. Tn.. Cower moot forget the very di ffi cult and delicate titual in which Sir Hodson Lowe had to fill, the ditties of which no man could have discharged with more umo derationeforbearance, and discretion -• I - The LORD Cider Josocs.--Taka Ault tee UMW, Southampton, Wilts, Dorset, Devon, Cornwall, Somerset, , ; :.. ~ .

GUILDHALL —William Johnson was brought up yes terday before the Sitting Magistrate, Mr. Alderman Coe, on the charge of Thomas Guppy , porter at th e King's Head Inn , Old Change, who stated, that while sitting on Monday evening under the sunebeon, where the goofs are pitched in the yard. the prisoner walked in, and very deliberately taking up a box of raisins, which bad been sent to the inn that day by Messrs. Travers and Co. St. Swithin's bane, to be forwarded to Scotland, was walking away with it upon his shoulder, when he (the witness) started from his hiding place and . seized him. The prisoner threw down the box, and made a desperate effort to release himself ; in the steer &le that part of Isis i jack e t which he (Guppy) hail hold of, gave way ; he in roneequence fell backwards, and the prisoner got chest from him; he recovered himself. however, immediately, gave she alarm, and never lost sight of the fellow till he saw him seized and stopped by a passenger in Thames-street. Notwithstanding the clearness of this teitimonv, the prisoner, when called on for his defence. boldly de clared he had never seen or touched the box in question and would fain have the Alderman believe that he en tered the yard merely to look for a job. Mr. Alderman Co% ,however, was incredulous, and the prisoner was accordingly committed to Newgate for fi4i.
