The • agent of Mr. Lee sald i however, that Mr. Lou would-not be satisfied n ithont serial( theta himself, and also seeing that . they were endorsed. Mr. Campbellpen intrusted the bills to Mr. Lee's agent, epos the positive assurance that they should not .be negotiated, batrettireed Immediately: Thb promise had been violatede sad the peeled tilidleld *eat could not be found. It appeared that the bills had been converted; for one of there was lately pretested for pay meat, and proceedings bad been threatened against Mrs. . Towson for the other. The two bills of Mr. Lee for 3001. each, hut been shim dishonoured, and thus she would be deprived, not only of the saw she had first advanced upon Mr.. Lee's, bills, but be obliged to pay up the balance, with out having received a firthing. Mr. Turner argued upon those circumstances, that Mr. • Lie's lent having received the bilk for a specific purpose. • namely, to thew them to Mr. Lee end return them, had been guilty of a felonious conversion in not doing so. He , considered the act as nothing less than stealing, end re.. e vested his Lordship's warrant for the apprehension of the agent of Mr. Lee. • '..

''get the bills were in possession of a person at the steam tte-bolt o ffi ee, Regent-street. This person promoted them, J• ,• refused to mention his name. A summons was issued to this unknown person. Ho *Mad • ed promptly, and said that his reason for not telling his mime was, that he did not wish It to be mixed up in the public pa pers witha transaction id which he was not concerned. He merely knew Mr. lee in consequence of that gentleman having submitted documents oa the subject of the title to the barony to him for proper arrangement. Mr. Lee bad casually request pd Marto present the bills In question for payment. He had done so, but on learning that there was suspicion imputed to the transaction by which they were obtained. be bad slice re ' turned them to Mr. Lee, and had nothing more to do with them. The LORD NAV(); ordered the statement of this witness to be taken down es evidence of the conversion of the bills.— Ilts then seat a sammoos to Mr. Lee to attend yes terday‘ • Mr. Lee did not attend, but Mr. Turner stated that he had Teethed the bills, and that his Lordship would not be troubled turther In the ease.

Lee was very desirous that it should ' he publicly known that the bills had been delivered up in the proper (purser. • Here the matter ended. .(iust,oliau..—The depredations committed by the 11-f -iintoi* Messrs. I)allimore, the carriers, Doctors' Commons,' leotieed in our paper of Saturday last, underwent further' inseatigation before Mr. A Iderman Cox,yesterday, on the ex. Imitation of Solomon Briton, the yard porter ; the lad Thee otosnatod the two fetnales, Weston and Gibbs. Against the -.two end Weston, the west-end carrier, the husband ief one of them, there was already a sufficient case to go to a 'jury, and tnost probably enough fur the conviction of Wes too, the husband, at least ; ,but no search or inquiry has produbetl any trace of him since he absconded. .Additional . evidence was tendered as to other property stolen out of packages, duplicates relating to which had been found at . Weston's lodgings, and the prisoner Gibbs, who appears to have been the. general disposer of the booty, again identifi • eri as the pawner. All this, however, only affected the Weston!, and furnished nothing to implicate Britton. and . Dlr. Humphries, who attended - fur him, again urged his . tolse discharged. Mr. Young, Messrs. Ddlimore's solicitor, allowed they lad no evidence to produce against Britton bet time conies- Mod,of the lad. Thuslow, whirls, from the incautious man. tier under which it bad been obtained, could not, he feared be made evidence Sale agalnit himself. His testimony „worild prove the guilt of Britton ; and he (Mr. Young) was wilting, with tike , permission of the Alderman, that he should be mad , a witness., Mr. Iluropbrien asked who, even in that case, was• to conflrmlis testimony, No part of the stolen property bad been traced to firitton; add all that 'f harlow could state would be nq more than the unsupported account of what one thief said of another—evidence upon which no Court would recommend a jury to convict. - Me-Young had no answer to this, and the Alderman felt himself obliged to discharge Britton for want of evi. thence; and thus ap offender, of whose guilt no rational doubecould be entermined, from the want of a little pre 's nide of tilled and cautious Management at the firm disco very of the rolibery,lescapes the punishment of his demerits. Iltwlow and the two females were again remanded. The caseof &Minh ilte journeyman printer, for the rob bery eurniaitted upon his master, lir. Hensley, whose tempi nanon at Union Hall has already appeared in the papers, is, It is to he feared, from what occurred at this office, likely, frool similar want of caution at first, to terminate nearly in the someway. No proof ean,be &dilated (except the evi dence df Cabuac, the alleged receiver, who is himself in custody) that the property found in Surrey wan stolen by Brousso, or Lad ever been in his possession. No Bill, therefore, can be preferred against him there; the Court, . on applicatsoo, have refused to respite the recognizance. until the next Session, for .want of sufficient ground shown; awl the prisoners would in consequence be discharged on the proclamation day. • In this dilemma, Mr. Butler, Mr. Harmer's clerk, applied to the Alderman here to allow a detainer to be lodged againit Beeman in London, some one or two printed sheets being found in his possession when he was first taken into ;custody in the City; but aye a long consultation with the City Solicitor, Mr. thimphries, attending for Beeman, the application was refused. At the close of the Suriey Sessions he will therefore be entitled to his discharge, if no bill is preferred and thus another culprit escapes justice.

Between that period and the tenoning Isebtuary neafly 80!. was paid Prisons from the subicrip gees received by Mr. Haggett!, in, addition to the large quantities of linen; &c. Mr. Baggers, hoWerer. bad ng seen another advertisement le the papers from Parsons (after lie had received the above very maple relief), stating that he had only received eleven shillings, refund to have ally thing further to do with him ; bat the fellow had the address to persuade other gentlemen to receive subscriptions for him, and he continued his de predations on the public in this manner to an unknown amount, until November Int when Mr. Pope, the surgeon of Somerset Street, who attended his family, and received monies for hum, saw an advertisement, stating that his former appeals had not met the public eye, and that he bad nit received a single shilling. The Magistrate sentenced him to three months lined soonsent, and bard labour at the tread-mill, in the House of Correction.

The watchman stated that the gentleman whet gave She prisoners in charge bad been severely treated. • . The constable of the night said, that there was s yowl man present who saw the assault. Smyth (a bargeman) was called, and proved ter it he saw the assault. It was committed upon the gentlemen without any provocation, and it was a very outrageous assault.— They were severely injured. ..The Magistrate then observed that two of the prison er* were well known at the Office, and he, therefore, re manded them, in order to see if the complainants would appear against thesis. it was gaits possible that they were enable to appear from the severe treatment which they had sustained. WOULII•BE nuaratv.—Yesterday H. BretkAonse, a boy about sixteen years of age, was brought up under the following circumstances:— Mr. George Mauled, a general salesman, of High-street, Whitechapel. stated, that es he was standing at tit- far cask of his shop yesterday morning withot Gentleman who wen bargai sing with him for a gun, hi.l attention was saddest, ermined. at bearing a noise behind the counter near tlsi window; on proceeding thither, he discovered the prisoner stooping behind the counter endeavour log to pull oat the till. but in which be failed, as it was lock-d at the time ;on dragging him from behind the counter, he asked him what lie did there, anti 'the prisoner answered he only wanted a halfpenny; but on his giving charge of him he pretended to be dumb, and to the questions put by the officers, lie coadeseveral wry faces, and signs with his hands, and pretended a total incapability of speaking. The prisoner, while at the bar, acted in a similar manner. The MAGISTRATE (Mr. Wyatt) asked the prisoner whether he would prefer being committed for the space of one 'month or for two to the House of Correction? He nodded assent to the former, but the Magistrate comas tted *him for two months. • UNio.e LIALL.--Yesterday morning', w en Hall, the Chief constable, laid his report book far inspection before L. B. ALLEN, Esq. he stated that Dan. Harris, sen..one of the officers of this Establishment, was nearly murdered the previous day by a man named Evans, who is in the em ployinent of Mr. Callaghan, a millwright, residing in Newington Causeway. It appeared that Harris went to the premises of Mr. Callaghan, where Evans was at work, on Tuesday, about 4 o'clock:. for the purpose of executing an assault warrant on him. Harris did not know the individual's person against whom the warrant was issued, but from the description lie had received, he concluded that Evans, who was at work in the factory with a pick axe, was the man be wanted. He then exhibited the warrant, and asked Evans whether he was not the man. Evans re plied that he was not the person, and was about to walk stray from the premises. Harris, whose suspicions were ratherincreased than • diminished, opposed his departure, telling him that a person would soon appear who would prove the necessary fact. Evans- then recommenced bye work, bat seeing Harris turn round his head. ti nod • dee, perste blow at the unfortunate officer's skull with the pick: axe, and wounded him deeply over the eye. Harris felk almost deprived of his senses, to the ground. Upon ati tempting to rise, he was again knocked down by Evans,, I who beat out several of his teeth with the same dreadful instrument. The poor fellcivr was left lying on the ground Covered with blood. Hall added, that on Tuesday evening, Harris was considered in danger, but the sur geon pronounced him better yesterday morning. Evans absconded. Mr. A imett desired that neither trouble nor expense should be spared in the search after the desperate ruffian, and sent thee° officers in pursuit of him. A chivalrous attorney on Tuesday night took it into his head to attempt to rescue a whole squad of Irish rioters ; be rushed into the watch bottle in the High-street, South wark, end called upon the night constable to discharge them. Tbeperson in the highest authority in the watch house desired him to quit the place. The attorney would not obey, and became so noisy that it was found necessary to expel Mm by farce. The moment the watch house door was open again, in rushed the attorney a second time, and strtscic all who stood in his way, still demanding that the Irish should be liberated. He was then locked up. When put so the bar, he elbibited A woeful *are; his cravat coveted - wit& blood, nod Ms clothes ere 4 torn and-powder; led with dust..

Suspecting that something wrong was going toward, he pretended to be asleep I sad the moment he began to snore, the boys deter m i ne d t o ra h him of fire sover e i g n s w hi c h he had mentioned in dietitians of the disturbance that be was possessed uf. One of Alma gently approached him on one side, a•nl the other on the other, and he felt the hand of one of them in the porkee where he kept his money, sod in the act of drawing It oat of his pocket.
