At the London Adjourned Sessions, Edward Har. grave, an officer of the ward or liis.hopsgatc, was frurul gatity of most infamous conduct, in atti:npting to extort money from two young women, after making trrtn treat him with liquor, upon the fiallaeioos pretence that he hadcriminal charges against them. His defence was intoxication at the time. Ha was sentenced to six months' imprisonment in tLe house of Correction SINGULAR ROBBERY.—A few days ago two villains robbed the Stone Quarry, at Bramley Falls, near Leeds, and actually carried of, to Shipley, a distance of nine miles, a boat brad of stJnes, weight thirty six tons ! ! ! It appears by the returns of the number of persons committed to the several gaols of London and Middle sex, fl:r trial, during the last year, that the crimes of murder, highway robbery, burglary, housebreaking, &c. have considerably decreased.

SIR—I have the Commander in Chief's commands to acknowledge the receipt of your Lett-r of the 25th it:strut, with its Enclosures, regarding the transaction stated to have occurred at the Manchester Theatre ; and as ♦ou therein state, that the Officers of the 7th Hus sars, with others said to be concerned in that proceed ing, are to he immediately prosecuted in the Courts of Law, his Loyal Highness desires I will acquaint you with his opinion, that it would chew a want of defer ence to those Laws if he were to anticipate their de cision by any military investigation or notice of the offences alleged against the Officers alluded to. Under these circumstances, his Royal Highness will !cave the Laws to take their course ; and he is always ready to concur in the propriety of those under his contraand being male amenable to the just exercise of them. I remain, Sir, your mist obedient humld.e servant, To Henry Hunt, Esq. Manchester. H. TORRENT. We lately mentioned the death of Lieut. Col. O'Dog berty, of the Marines. This eccentric character had, previous to his death, nude a will ; by which, after be queathing 1,0001. in legacies to various pet sons, he left the residue, amounting at least to 40,0001. to C. Car penter, Eyq. of Moth:umlaut. At this Gentleman's re quest, two of the neighbourim , Magistrates, Mr. Arun del, of Landulph, and Mr. Tu cker, of Tremaston Castle, attended the funeral ; after which they accompanied him to read the will to al. O'Degherty's sun and three unmarried daughters, who were not even men. tioned in it. When the will had been read, Mr. Car penter, in the handsomest manner, renounced all his right to tne property beveathed, which he immedi ately assigned over to the Colonel's four children, to he divided between them, in such proportions as Mr. C. Rashleigh, formerly a trustee in the family, should t:ireet. What adds more credit, if possible, to Mr. Carpenter's conduct oa this occasion is, the fact, that when an cypress readied Redruth, where he then was, with Col. 0 llogherty's will, he, without loss of time, and lest an accident might occur before he could return home, executed a codicil to hi+ own will, wherein he gave all the property bestowed upon him to the Colonel's children.—Traits of character like these re quire no eulogy : they spook for themselves.
