011 Pi* t ! I POLICE. MANSION Housa.--Cuaaos AGAINST • SOLDIR*: A Ownleman applied to the Lotto MATO& for a MX* want against aCorporal of the Coldstream Foot Guards, seder the following circumstances : The applicant stated, that on the 17th of last month, as he was walking up Ludgate-hill, be was suddenly, sad with great violence, forced into the carriage toad, when, on turning mad, he perceived a band of sol ders, to one of whom be addressed himself on the un necessary and outrageous violence with which be had been pushed into the street. The leading soldier, who was a Corporal, answered him in the most inso lent manner, cursed him, ordered him to get out of the way, and raised hie bead sat as if it was his intention to scab him. The co ain temp was much alarmed at this actiew, and retreated into the shop No. 23, for safety. He appealed to the Lora Mayor whether an assault *flinch a nature, committed by a soldier with his bayonet fixed, should be suffered to pass without pun ishment. Tbe complainant said, be had followed the soldiers to their barracks, and obtained the name of the ag gressor, and he now wished for a warrant to appre hend and bring him to punishment. The LORD MAYOR said, that however the aggressor might deserve to suffer punishment, it was not for him' to adjudge or inflict it. All be could do was, to bold the aggressor to bail to keep the peace, or to *e nvier the charge at the sessions. As there was little fear that the soldier would run away, the best way to wet was to indict him at the session ; and then if a true bill were found, a warrant would follow of course. His Lordship expressed his strong sense of the nature of the outrage which the soldiers were but too prone to commit in the crowded streets of London. The complainant said, he should follow his Lord ship's suggestion, and left the office. He, however, soon returned and said, that probably the soldier would be removed, when it was heard that this com plaint was made against him. Indeed it was possible, that before the indictment could be preferred, he might be removed by coarse of service. Upon these grounds he had thought it prudent to return, and sub mit to his Lordship the necessity of issuing his war• rant to secure the offender, and oblige him to find bail to answer the charge, which be conceived to be one of the most serious nature. He knew there was some law or regulation in country towns, for obliging soldiers with fixed arms to march in the carriage way. He did not know whether there was any obligations upon them to do so in the crowded streets, where such a precautiew was eso much more necessary. The Loan MAYOR said, be was aware of the serious nature of the assault, but as the matter had been ea& feted to sleep so long, it would appear unneceeisey now to issue a warrant, particularly as the Seaside* MIS so near. The complainant accouuted for the charge not being brought forward at an earlier period, by assuring his Lordship that be had been obliged to go oat of tows immediately after, and bad but just returned. He bad applied at Bow-street, supposing that the Magistrate for Middlesex bad jorisdietioa over all within the county, but was informed that he bad so jurisdiction over the city. The complainant added, that be did not know but that the soldier might have been re- moved during his absence. The Loan MAYOR suggested the propriety of ascer taining the fact. The complaisant said he should make the inquiry, and wait upon his Lordship next day. GUILDUALL.—POINT OF Law lIRLATIVR TO POOR RaTas.—The subject of the dispute between Mr. Pal ter. of Furnival's Inn-court, and the parish officers of the city liberty of St. Andrew's, came again under consideration at this office yesterday before Alderman J. SMITH, the sitting Magistrate, upon application for another(being a third) summons against that gentle man to show cause why a warrant of distress should not be issued to levy the rate upon his goods and chattels. Mr. Payne (the Magistrate's clerk) said, he had re ceived a note from Mr. Jobson, the vestry clerk, which he read, stating that he (Mr. Jobson) bad convinced Mr. Alderman Weighting, the Alderman of the Ward, of the propriety of granting the warrant of distress in this case ; but as the business had already been before the public, and bad excited much interest, he deemed it more honourable that the question should again un dergo public discussion, and therefore desired a sum mons for Mr. Palser's appearance at this justice-room to-morrow (this day) when the Alderman of the Ward would also attend. Mr. Payne was about to explain the nature of the rase, but the Alderman observed he bad already seen ti .e report in the public prints. Mr. Payne then said, it was for the Magistrate to decide whether, under the circumstances, he would think proper to issue a fresh summons. A gentleman, who attended with Mr. Palser on the two previous discussions, happening to be present, said Mr. Palser was wholly unaware of this applica tion, and he bad hoped, after what had already passed,. Mr. Jobson would not have attempted nay further pro ceeding without giving Mr. User notice. He bad at tended once before Mr. Alderman Brown, and twice before Mr. Alderman Wood, on neither of which occa sions had it been attempted to be shown, on the part of the parish officers, that the premises were withie the city liberty, and the Magistrates in consequence re-, fused to grant the warrant of distress until their right of jurisdiction was established. Was it intended, and wes it fair, lie asked, that Mr. Palser should go the whole round of the Cqurt of Aldermen, and be sum moned before each of the 26 Magistrates, as they at tended in rotation at this Justice-room, in the hope that one of them might be found who could be willing to chance the consequences of issuing the warrant ? A simple view of the premises would decide, that there was no question but that they were out of the jurisdic tion of the city Magistrates. Mr. Payne said, be had felt it his duty to make in quiry both at the office of the city surveyor,_ and also at the Court of Requests for the city, and learnt that at neither of those offices, were the premises in question considered as within the jurisdiction of the city of. London. Mr. Alderman J. J. SMITH said, be always consi dered the duties of an Alderman within his Ward, es pecially with respect to poor-rates, as distinct from those of the Magistrate, when acting judicially. The act of the Alderman of the Ward, in signing a poor rate, was a. Mialsterial'Act, he having no authotity whatever to object to the rate, or any part of it; but to ... - -- - -- aa .... . _ ... I.ses a warrant of distress to inform It, was a jediclal Act, upon which the Magistrate was bound to use his discretion, for this reason, when applied to in his own Ward for warrants of distress, he (Mr. Aid. Smith) had always refused, and referred the applicants to the sitting Alderman at this Justice-room. He considered the question between Mr. Palser and the parish as one of much importance, and which ought to be decided ; and he thought the application to the acting Alderman at this office the proper mode ofproceeding, ratberthan to the Alderman of the Ward; but as the business had already undergone the consideration of two Magistrates, each of whom had come to the game decision, he saw no reason why he should interfere for the purpose of trying the question again, and therefore refused to issue the summons to Mr. Palser. 1 BOW-OTROZT.•-•-•NOVICL Occuaarsca.-- Yester day morning Dr. Veitch, of Charlotte-place, Pimlico, a gentleman whose attention is chiefly directed to the cure of persons labouring ander mental derangements, applied to GEOIIOII ROWLAND Missnum., Esq. the Sitting Magistrate, and requested his assistance to recover a patient who bad been surreptitiously removed from his care and protection. The Doctor stated, that a gentleman who had been long deranged was placed by his relations under his care some time atm and he appointed a asan whom . be thought competent and trustworthy, to watch over him. The man executed the trust repotted in him with fidelity, until a few days ago, when be absconded, taking the patient with him, and was no where to be found or heard of. He (the Doctor) however, had some hope of finding him, if the worthy Magistrate would give him the assistance of an active and intel- ligent miter. Mr. blimmuct,—l do not think I have power to inter fere in such a matter. I do not know that you have any authority over the patient. Dr. Veitch—l have authority both as the physician and the friend of the patient. I have huolrwhim many years. Mr. MINSHOLL—Hire you other proem Aided with the same malady under your care? Dr. Veitch—l have. Mr. blmsnuct.—Wbere is your establishmest? Dr. Veitch—l have no distinct establishment. I have many patients under my care, but I place them in sepa rate cottages, or lodgings, with proper persons to attend upon them. Mr. M manutz.--That, I presume, is part of your mode of treatment ? Dr. Veitcb-1t is, Sir; because I am of opinion that a cure is much more likely to be effected when a patient is kept by himself, than when be is suffered to mingle, with others similarly afflicted. Such an association often tends to confirm the malady beyond the reach of cure. Mr. Ilitissnut.t.—l am afraid this is a case in which I have no power to interfere. I know of no law which authorises me to order the apprehension of the man who is said to have absconded with the patient, Sr etch to 411fflitts lite patient himself forcibly. Dr. Veitch—l spoke to Sir Richard Birdie early this seershig upon the subject, and he said that In such a onae, perhaps I should do right to act rather with vision beyond the law. Mr. MINSHULL—If you choose so to act you may; but it must be entirely upon your own responsibility. — Remember, I give you no authority. Dr. Veitch—Oh, certainly. I shall ,exonerate you, Sir, from all responsibility, rely upon it. I only wish to have an officer with me to render me proper assist ance if necessary. Mr. Mussuubt —Yon may take an officer with von to see that the peace is not broken, but his power will not extend beyond that. Dr. Veitch—l will take all risk upon myself. The patient is a man of high family and connections, and I have no doubt he has bftn taken away for some sinister purpose. D o c am determined to get him back if possible. The Doctor then left the office, and drove off in a coach, accompanied by two of the patrol. HATTON-OAHDEN.--FCRIOVS DRlVlNO:Yelterdlly a case which excited considerable interest came to be beard at this office : it was an information against Thomas Hall, a driver of one of the Paddington stage coaches, for furiously driving, so as to endanger the lives of the passengers, and refusing to stop when desired, to suffer them to dismount. The defendant did not attend, but the person who attended for him stated that he was very ill in bed, and not able to attend, and that some witnesses who were necessary were not in town, not having time to send to them since the service of the summons, which was only served at 11 o'clock the preceding day ; and requested, for the ends of justice, that the further hearing of the case might be postponed a few days.— The Magistrate, after consulting with the witnesses for the prosecution, postponed the further hearing of the case until next week, on the understanding that the defendant is to pay any expenses the witnesses for the prosecution are at, on account of the indulgence granted to the defendant. MARLBODOUGH-STRNDT.—AIary Ash was charged upon a new case with uttering a bad sovereign. The evidence adduced was, that she mad uttered the sovereign to a tradesman in Berwick-street, and her tale was, that being the wife of a shoemaiter, she bad received the spurious sovereign of a person in payment for shoes. It is necessary as a public caution to state, that the piece had neither sound nor ring, and it ac cords with other bad ones in circulation. It weighs about two-thirds of the weight of a good one, with a brass head clumsily executed. The Solicitor of the Mint did not think fit to prosecute upon the single case, and the prisoner was discharged, and the bad piece defaced. A LOST CHILD Rasvotzu.—Yesterday the night charge book of St. Ann's parish, exhibited a charge against a group of young vagabonds, who nightly prowl about the streets for purpose of plunder, for being riotous and _disorderly, and lurking about the streets. A little girl of not more that between fourteen or fifteen years of age, and of very prepossessing appear ance, and although so young was leading a life of the greatest depravity, was also charged with being con nected with them. Mr. CONANT, the magistrate, committed the whole of them to prison. It appeared, however, that there happened to be some person in the office daring the ex amination who was acquainted with the safortiusste female's family, and intelligencewas conieyed Wow diately to her distracted.parents, who ha been' 'Seeking her for the fast two months.without a iortispect "of re ceiving any tidings of her. •• •ak _ :,-,,,~„ After she - bed bees locked up about two boon► the mother, a very decent-looking yeoman, ca into the office in a state of great agitation. and made Inquiry of the magistrate, whether a girl (giving a description of her daughter) bad been brought there that worming ? The worthy Magistrate answered in the affirmative ; and for the purpose of relieving the feelings of a pa rent, who, in tears, explained that it was her daugh ter she bad made inquires after, he ordered the prisoner instantly to be brought up. While the officer was absent. the Magistrate questioned the mo ther, and informed her that her daughter bad been found under the most disgraceful circumstaseerie the street, and trusted that it was net through her neglect. The mother, whose utterance was almost stifled with excessive grief, assured the Magistrate that she bad taken all pains to instruct her daughter, and to instil good principles into her. She had been se. dated from her home, and she bad left Worcestershire in pursuit of her. She had been in London two months, and never could receive any tidings of her until by chance on that day. The girl was here brought into the office (not knowing that her mother was there to meet her): on entering, the mother, in a flood of tears ran to em- brace her. The Magistrate asked the girl whether she would promise to reform her conduct, and walk home with bee mother, in preference to being sent to a prison for a month or two. She answered mildly "Yes, Sir."— The Magistrate gave her suitable advice, and trusted she would do so. She then quitted the office under her mother's protection. invenna Totavzs.—Archibald Benseralla and John Gumbo, only 1! years of age, ware brought up by Bartlett, the beadle, charged under the police-act as reputed thieves. The officer stated, that the pri soners were well known to him e.s thieves, and they belonged to a most notorious gang who infested the neighbourhood of Drury-lane and Long-acre, &c.; and the parish had given orders, in consequence of their daring depredations, to apprehend all of them. The prisoners he found at a very early hour yesterday morn ing, under suspicious circumstances, and he took them into custody. The prisoner Gambo had been guilty of numerous thefts, and had broken out of the Refuge for the Desti tute once, and likewise out of the workhouse. lie had been convicted once, and received flogging once, which he bore in a hardened way, and the magistrate remens bered having him before him. Benseralla said he had been at sea, and had been at home three weeks. The Magistrate expressed his determination to make an example of such pests to society, and ordered them to be committed, and gave instructions that Gautho should receive a good whipping. UNIov-HALL.—Yesterday a man, named William Jobs Bigges► was brought before the Sitting Magistrate (L. B. ALUM, Esq.) charged with having obtained goods and money to a considerable amount under the f•.'.lowing circumstances. Mr. Sargent, a respectable tradesman residing in the Kent-eoad,stated that the prisoaer was servant to a gentle man in the same neighbourhood of the name of Wilson. About a fortnight ago the prisoner came to his shop, and said that his mistress sent him for change of a 30/. bill, Mr. Wilson being absent in the country at the time. The witness replied that he could not comply with Mrs. Wilson's request. Biggen who had a piece of paper in his band in the shape of a check, directly said that he was desired if he could not procure cash for the bill to borrow 51. Witness without hesitation gave the 51. to him. In the course of the evening the prisoner called is again for a 281 b. bag of shot, and a canister of powder, which he said were to be sent down to the coun try next morning to his master. A third time he pre sented himself, and Mr. Sargent asked him if he got the note cashed for his mistress. The reply was that be had not, but that his mistress wanted the loan of 3/. more, which witness also let him have. In a few days witness called upon Mrs. Wilson, and spoke of the bill which he said she had sent him to cash. She replied in amazement that she bad never sent him any bill for that or auy other purpose, and she also declared that she had not sent to him for any of the articles which he amine- rated. Two other persons came forward and stated, that the prisoner bad obtained money from them in a similar manner to that described by the last witness, and that the prisoner bad run up bills with them for a variety of articles in Mr. Wilson's name, which had not been order ed by that gentleman. Mr. Wilson said, the prisoner lived with him for some time, and he bad the utmost reliance on his integrity, until the above-mentioned charges were brought against him. He entertained no doubt that the prisoner had de frauded a number of other tradesmen in the neighbour hood, and begged that the case should be postponed in order to give an opportunity to a linen-draper, who has a charge to make, to come forward. The OSeer who apprehended the prisoner stated, that be found him at a lodging in the Borough, that be was just on the point of getting out on a shooting excursion to a distant part of the country, and had actually taken his seat in the coach. He was dressed like a first-rate sportsman. Fifteen sovereigns were found upon him, besides rings, seals. &c. An elderly woman stepped forward and said, the pri soner held a watch in his possession belonging to her daughter, from whom he bad borrowed it, And to whom be had been paying his addresses. She coograt , e4ted herself and her daughter at their escape from such a con nection. The Magistrate ordered the watch to be re stored to the poor-woman, and remanded the prisoner, nessamwmanwnwommat At Cardiff Great Sessions two prisoners, C. Millington and J. Shannon received sentence of drub, for forging letters of attorney, and,personating two warrant officers is the Navy, in order to receive the priae•money due to them, and thus to defraud Greenwich Hospital.

DAEADFUL ACCIDENT.--Yesterday, between the hours of one and two, a shock of a most violent de• scription look place in the neighbourhood of Oxford market, in consequence of the falling in of several houses containing families, who narrowly escaped with their lives. The leases of some houses is Coeds -scrag Oxford-market, it appears, had expired last week, aid it was intended to bare them pulled downi but Mr. Brown, a green grocer, who resided in the Imam that first fell in, not being prepared to leavejtasediately, was allowed to remain a week beyond the expiration of the lease, but the whole of the lodgers forte's* quitted the house at the appointed time. At tbealaoss hour the inmates were alarmed by a creaking poise, and shortly after the house of Mr. Brown gave way with a tremendous shock. The streets were inasedi stely filled with dust ; the neighbours rubel oat of their dwellings in a dreadful state of alarm. The fill ing of Mr. Brown's house brought down with it that of Mr. Bridges, in which some persons narrowly es caped with their lives. At the time that the houses fell in, an elderly lady, named Allen, was with ham in the garret: she was sitting on the side of her bed, whilst her son was at work near her; they were bath suddenly precipitated in with the floor, and covered with a small quantity of bricks, timber, and rubbish: however, they were got out with their lives. iles.Allea was much injured on the legs and arms, and received various bruises, and likewise her son : she was carried to a neighbour's house, and from thence to the Mid dlesex Hospital. A cobler, who was busily employed in his stall opposite AI r. Brown's, made a ludicrous es cape. The first signal be received was from a pieced timber falling on the top of his stall: - poor Crisps, with his strap and hammer, made a precipitate retreat from his humble dwelling, and ran off leaving his eel behind. The neighbours were busily employed dans( the day, removing their goods to places of safety, Ili about hall past two, an adjoining (third) Wise fell le with a tremendous crash. Other houses is the street were so much shook, that labourers were immediately employed to place supporters against them to keep them up. There were no less than twelve fantiliei al together, who providentially escaped. *et did sit hear of any persons being under the ruins. SHOCKING AOClDKNT.—Yesterday morning, as W.
