Mr. Lane, who attended on behalf of the Goldstnithet Company, stated, that from information they had received. they bad reason to believe that the milli° were very much defrauded by the transposition of the part of a piece of plate which contalbed the stamp to a larger piece Which bad never been stamped; and which larger piece contained a much greater proportion of alloy than would have been arovreti if it had been brought to be stamped. la this manner the public were imposed upon, who linseed that becatise the piece of plate they purchaseg coosained she Hall mark, that, therefore, the entire of Otte kliseete plate was of standard . metal.; Mr. Sepy. of Betbna, liewas ern played to the Assay Office. ac Goldsmithe • !kV,' and that be recollects baying received, on the Slit of September. two gold tratch eases from the prisatier: to be assayed and I stamped. As at th it time some suspicions (mimed that their stamp wits freirently transposed, he, besides affixing the regular stamp, put several mark, on different parts of the cases. On the following day they were returned to the prisoner; and on the 14th; two other mach rases were sent by the prisoner to be - stamped. Witoese eximine these, and foetid the 'rims to be those which be hal a few days before marked. Concieding that the stamped part molt have been cut out for the purpose of freed, he com municated these facts to Mr. Lane i and..in consequence. a warrant was obtained, and the premises of the prisoner searched. The result was, the finding several rims which had evidently been cot from the body of the case. Not, however, finding either of the cases he bad mark ed, h r examined the books of the prisoner. and front them found that on the day following that on +Which the cases were fetched from the Hail, two gold watch cases had been sold by the prisoner to Mr. Tyrer, Sof Northampton Street. Thither he went; and obtained from the sbopman the two cases in question., John Bellows, 'bottom's to Mi. Tyree, deposed that the two cases produced were those vrtich he had given to Me.; Sep', and which they had received of theprisoner. (This witness produced the bill of OW which eccouspi.l cried them.) The cases. as sent to be stamped unite resiiitkably.smail, and it sass explained to the Magistrate that the fraud oat. slated In cutting out the stamped par', and working it in to another Case the prititipel part of which was not-metal of the standard 'fineness. Mr. Sergeant SAILA* considered the case sufficiently clear, and therefore coronsitted the prisouer for trial. Tom Shelton yesterday appeared to answer a summons, for having unlawfolly detained twenty shillings. the pro perty of Mr. James (.lark, fishmonger, of Fleet-market. . The complainant stated that be recentlyreeeived an order from the defendant'for a code head and shetilders, twelve dosen oysters, and three pair of setts. The articles were accordingly met to his imam, the Hole-in-the-Wall public. house, Lincoln's Inn-fields; hat to his great surprise the soles were sent back again. Happening to call at the de. feedant's a few nights 'after, he inquired the cause, when he was informed that they were net fresh. Knowing this to be untrue, he offered* wager of twenty *billings tha be would prove on the oaths of respectable persona, corn peteat judges, that the soles were• perfectly sweet. The wager was accepted, and he aceordingly counted down his money, which was Wept up by Mrs. Shelton, who said that sire would he stake-bolder, sad added that be had lost, as their cook would swear that they were Dot fresh. This not being the proof required, be objected, bet was at last put forcibly out of the house. without ever having obtained back his money front that day to this. Torn Shelton averred that it was agreed mutually that the cook's word should be final. The complainant, be said, was intoxicated at the time; and be therefore hoped the Magistrates would impose the usual line for that of fence. M r. Sergeant Set.how did jot think it probable that any Man wagering would agree that' the wife of bis, opposer should hold the stakes, and that his servant should be the judge: As to the complainant being drunk; if that were true, it was a reason why the defendant should nut hews wagered with him & and he therefore should order tbdt the 20s. -be forthwith restored to the complainant. 'Tom Shelton forked out, and banded over the Want. • Surgeon Whitmore reported to the :Magistrates that fticbard Stanton, the man who was Injured by his wife, and who now lies in Bartholomew's Hospital, is is a very fair way of recovery, and oat of danger. The unfortunat e wife, who is Dewitt Clerkenwell Prison, has taken the case so much at heart, that it is thought she will not survive it.

Visa AT HAMMAIISMITI4. — Yesterday morning, shout ore o'clock, the main street or road to Hammersmith was thrown into considerable confusion by the discovery of a fire at the Windsor Castle Inn, Hammersmith; and the consternation and alarm were greatly heightened by the fiet of those within being wholly unacqual ted with their peril. The occupants were a young married couple, and related to Mr. Hallett, the collector at Hammersmith. They had taken the house only two months ago of Mr. Smith; and the proprietors, as well as their blishmeot, had retired to bed about an hour, end all were soundly asleep. The premises appeared to be on are In sit directions, so that even if the parties could be aroused from 'their sleep, It appeared to be almost impossible that all should escape. Such was the danger when persons accidentally pass. tag along the road discotered the fire; the alarm was Instantly Riven, the doors broken, and eforts made to save the lives of the inturbitante. Some were got out by such means; bet the eider relative of the landlady, a Mr. Hallett, who had goo* &ere the preceding evening, and who is bordering on a stater of silliness, as well gs being infirm, was with difficulty saved by literally throwing him from oneof the upper windows. Term females, relatives of the landlady, as well as the landlady her self,. were obliged to make their escape from windows ; andiso threatening were the dames, that they had only time to rise from their beds to get out of the house thus unceremoniously. They gained shelter with some neighbours opposite • bat they are In a state of serious Indisposition. By extraordinary es @Mous, the lives of all persons who had been in the inn were preserved ; but not a particle of property could be rescued from the atones. The fire had, by some means, got so a head, that there was no chance of preserving any portion of the ei• tensive range of buildings, stabling, ite.eonstltuting the Wind sor Castle bin. All were destroyed, as well as l'at adjoining school house; and 1 neighbouring houses and establish ments were much injured Mr. Holmes, the painter. whit lives close by, sustained great injury by the breakage of glass sad the spoiling of coteries, owing to the heat.
