May it plow your Lordship, think you perceive, very easily, why it I left this part cat his proof so very then, I • positive testimony of actor than tens- e Andrew l)unean here mentioned is 1 • by the reports which are represented ion his character.

He the facts relating to this and other Gentlemen, that other warms have I explained to you why it is that they of those actions the defendant has ....e plaintiff has thought proper te keep en, and which is not to be tried, believe . in —_ . ____ edd brings forwardethis, where the defendants hiree'thought fit to rely upon the general issue, and hopes to gain vour 'verdict that he may put the costs of this action in his pocket, which was the great object this very respectable ettorney had in view. This was the reason, Gentlemen, for nay Learned Friendhi no; calling witnesses before you who knew something about him, and who would have told you a hide history of this gentleman : but no, they dared not do it ; they preferred calling those who were sirangen to the matters alluded to in the reports, and who knew little or nothing about the plaintiff. It was much easier, gentle men, to take their proof short, and leave it to you to infer that this Andrew Duncan is Andrew Duncan the younger, rather than bring evidence to establish that fact. Now, gendemeo, sutler ins to call your attention to the observation of the Attorney-General, and to the stateuieut madebefore you. I certainly agree with my Learned Frieild In all those general topics which he has dwelt upon as to theeibuee of the public press. I agree whb lino that great and in calculable mischiefs may be done by that mighty engine, when it turns f;odi disseminating knowledge, and rewarding virtuous merit, hod is perverted to the purposes of private malice and personal ma lignity. I quite agree with him that the word scourge is not too strong to apply to the perversion of that great engine of public in struction, when, instead of being the advocate of virtue, the terror of vice, and the protector of innocence and merit, it lends itself to the vilest purposes, and violates every principle of justice and truth. And if there is one greater perversion of its uses than an. other, it is in suet a case as the one of whcb this Ar.drew Duncan tretends this day to complain—where base and malignant talae hatefs are invented for the purpose of casting imputations on sir %noir* characters, and holding them up to the scorn of the world in a character which belongs not to them. But, Gentlemen, I call upon you to say, whether this is one of the cases which exhibits the perversion of the pre.* from its legitimate use ? Does it show any ntaLce on the ear: of the proprietors ? It has been admitted by the Attorney-General, tlist the defendants were not the authors of the alleged libel; this admission was but just, for what motive could i: fluence than to misrepresent or detiume the character of the plain. tiff? They are lour licensed victuallers, who are only share holders in a paper, divided into no less than 9,600 shares. The LORD CIIIEF JESTICE ssid, the evidence was, that the teo publicans were proprietors, and the other two defendants were the printer and the imb.islicr. Mr. BROVCD.IO/—Tb.D tact, my Lord. is immaterial, whether two or four ; they arc ouly proprietors on the books at the Stamp office, to comply with the Act of l'arliainent ; in every other sense they are but trustees appointed by the victuallers to conduct this paper for the benefit of a charity, to the support of which the whole at tine profits go. Has then soy part of the else the slightest re- lerence to that general gut stion--as to the motive for the publics- lion ? Is there here one particle of evidence of private malice ? The ' defendants could not be actuated by any private malignity tdwarcls the plaintiff, for their interests and eursuite were suds as to preclude the very idea of such a feeling existing of eke& part. So much, then, fcr the prosecution on the ground of malice. But I will go a step ruttier. and ask, whether the alleged libel itself does not go te rebut the charge of malice. if any one word in the articles cempleined of were false, could I have been permitted to stand here to-day to ask for the reduction of a single shilling from the damages ; it there were anything in those articles either mandalously misrepresented, or notoriontly untrue, could I base ventured to apply to you for your Verthel ? How easily could the faleebood have been proved ? 11; under colour of a pretended report, it was attempted to blacken and de eemet the character of a respectable man, no language was shong enough to reprobate the conduct of those concerned in the promulgation of such a calumnious report ; but again I ask, is this ease one of that description ? If it was, why did not the plaiotlff resort to those means which would bare established the purity of his character, and proved the infamy of the libeller to all the world ? Every person at the Office in Bow-street would have said—whoever said these respective parties had ever applied to the Magistrate for a warrant ? I never saw such a man as a Mr Duncan, at Bow-street ; no girl ever came here to bring a charge against any such person. Besides, gentlemen, the books would leave proved all this; tile entries would have been sought for, but in sails; - tie such persons were ever heard of; no Mr. Duncan ever Im paired editor is 185 , 3 or in any other year to answer to such a charge —all is a Issse fabrication, and a most wicked libel. This Inc pladotiff could easily heretic:red, had none of the circumstances m eowed, but there was one thing he could not have done—he could not Aioproved this. •The defendant denied the greater part of thecharge— not the w hole, then ?—only the greater part ; then the otter parts riot tier-led must of course have been admitted too, by this man, whose character oil now had never known reproach—whose name was never coeuected with any thing that could reflect one particle of disgrece upon it, and who had never created a blush in the cheek of intro. seoce. But that is not all, Gentlemen, ' the defendant denied the greater part of the charge, but admitted, that he might have been a Mute imprudent'—A little imprudent, Gentlemen, to a lade, pretty, Interesting girl of thirtees years of age I .—a little pretty stirl wbo came to his chambers in the morning, not unbidden. -But again he added, ` that he was elevated with wine at the tiote'—elerated with wine at his chambers : early in the mono log. A respectable solicitor, whose clients would be calling on him, was, early in the morning • elevated with wine,' and in stead of receiving their visits was acting • tether icaprudently with two pretty, little, interesting, female children ! But how came these little girls there?—they did not come unmasked, as appears by the evidence of one of them at Bow-street. And who were they ? One of them was a Duncan, a cousin of his own, and the other a " pretty little interesting girl," her companion. This was acting a hide imprudently, certainly. Gentlemen, I say, if this is ell a fiction. the product of the wild imagination of the reporter, the mere dream of some half-cracked teller of sad talcs, or if it is foe invention of some genius whom poor Duncan has made his eacuay, could any thing have been so easy as to have proved it to be such? Mr. Halls and his clerks would have proved in Of the truth, however, of the whole affair, my Learned Friend has been very cautious in speaking, although he was lavish in his comments on other topics. (In saving that this publication offered abundant evidence of the absence of any malice on the part of the defendants, I have stated only a fact which is too obvious to he questioned ; but I will go further, and say, that the particles furnished the strongest proof of the absence of all malignant intention on the part of the reporter. It will also appear to you, that the whole of the report in the flee paper does not even mention his name, and in reeding that report, it Affixes nothing more upon the character of the plaintiff than inset'. But not till a week after, when the proceedings had as. sinned a serious complexion, and it wan become impossible to stop them, th.n. and not till then, is 111 r. Duncan's name mentioned ; aed when it is mentioned, there is no comment, no remark on the' pert of the reporter, either on the turpitude of the offence, the cha- ' ;rider of the parties, or the nature of the evidence; it was :eerily said that Mr. Duncan was brought up, and that certain thing.: had happened. It is in evidence the the reporter, in performing what La conceived to be his duty (of which a word hereafter), and having till then kept from the knowledge of the public the name of the micro charged; it is in evidence that when the proceedings had takes this course, he then from this time flames the accused. Was Os the conduct of a private enemy, or of a person acting through I malignant motives? Certainly not. But look at another pate of the report ; it had been said in the first paper that while' the assault was committing . on Ann Chandler, that her coin_ I psalm, the plaintiff's cousin, looked on with apparent ',alit terence. Now, is the second report, the writer says,—" We bare been req u ested to Cale, that the little girl (Ann Dun. cafe) declares she did make resistance when the defendant took h*d of her, and that she endeavoured to get away the instant he I first laid hands on Ann Chandler." Now was this contradiction 1 tolinorahle to the plaintiff's cause? Certainly not. But does it' met go to disprove the least particle of malice es istingin the mini of she eeporter In making the lint statement, when the eircunastamee Adult he related of Ann Duncan's being indifferent was calculated it' threw discredit on her testimony given before the Magistrate, and to place the character of the two girls in the worst Isseible them, and, by &Mai that, favour the accused. In fact, the report 1 one the most favourable one which the best well-wisher of Mr. Ilitthean could have framed—and indeed, the reporter was his beet felnol. I give you this, Gentlemen, as a badge not only •ef the absence of an ill motive, but as an evidence of, the innocence of inteution on the part of the reporter to de*rong. Now, Gentlemen, s remark of the Attorney. General is slay material, as to the manner of drawing up the report of the poneedinge at Bow-street. He says that it gives no detail,., enters I nibs no psrticuhirs, but only a general statement of what is pre. I wised to have occurred. But does not the Attorney-Generale know tha. the details were too groin end indelicate to place - before the I pellet eye—that it became a duty on the part of the reporter to sim mer; the (Ingesting facts that ewe forth in the examination of the I ploititrini and therefort, instead of a particular report of the evi. deuce, the whole stateroom' was put into the chastest language, and id the best powdble manner favourable to the defendant's chant- ten TbloOlentlemen t was the motive for having kept togeoerals, ' aid not having mom into the pa/emulate of the evidence. Than. waft. not • single observation made by the reporter, nor etteledet reference to what had taken place on the former day. Gentlleneld, I toe *heady skett to o f the amtiety of the plaintiff,' his character elitht ;ad I thomannee by which he had jedletalt Iciest to do so was, is froward this cause, where the tiidlF 0 /he elleri lilrel ,and keep beak 'bet acfloi 1 cseremi ..:-....: .---m.: z •.---t . .i7".. ~ '.....) ::,.... . . tie which a justification had been pleaded. Permit me to add one word more on the course taken by the plaintiff, and which is ex torted from me by the comments of my Learned Friend. He com plains here of cot having been afforded the opportunity of vindi cating the character of his client, by the indictment against him not having been followed up. The AS Tom NER•GRXERAL denied that he had aids°. Mr. BROUGIIAM insisted that he did, and rend his note of it. The AT TOR X ET-( i EN ER AL again said he did not. Mr. Blionowast—Gentlemen, the plaintiff here complains. es I said (for I have a note of my Learned Friend's expression), that he had no opportunity afforded Mtn of vindicating his character and establishing his innocence. Ile exclaims, Strike if you view ; proceed with your charge, if yon dare ; I have a defence ; and I only complain, says he. that you have not afforded me an apparu nity of vindicating inyalf, by no indictment being prefastrad against me. A year and a half hail however elapsed ; the parties were bound over to prosecute, and no indictment had been preferred. One of those persons was his cousin. Now, it may have been that the indictment was nut preferred because it was in the lards of a relation, or it may have been because the subject was of so delicate a natute But these are circumstances 1 cannot know, and what is the cause I care nor ; but one thing I know, it is ant, it cannot be, that the parties are afraid of the result of such a prosecution, or •because that all that is contained in the report is not true. And, Gentlemen, I tell you why, because, if that were the reason, and if, as lie has instructed his Learned Friend to satire you, this man of spotless character has been basely accused ; if this was • lying report, bottomed in falsehood, and the whole a foul and baseless vision engendered by a malignant and impure imaginatiort_if the Chandlers were base conspirators, and the plaintiff a man of untainted name, and the sufferer by a foul and hellish attack—the law, Gentlemen, steps forward to his assistance, and the law would give him redress. It was his bounden duty to indict them for a conspiracy, and to have come forward to justify the violated hart of his country, as Ann Duncan came forward at Bow-street. Ile may bring actions as many as he pleases, acting at the same time as agent, client, and attorney. rscover the damages, and pocket the costs ; but one thing he could not do here, he could not come forward, be examined on oath, and on that oath deny the truth of the alleged libel. But he might have gone before a Grand Jury, preferred his indictment, been examined, con victed, and confuted his enemies, and have come out as pure and as spotless as his Learned Counsel portrays him to be. All this he could have done if he haul chosen to indict for a conspiracy. But co ; he dared not take this coulee; for we should then have heard what had really happened, and the his tory of the Bow-street affairs would have been illustrated by some very curious notes and comments. But there was another eourse open to him if, from the consanguinity of the parties, he had felt reluctant to prosecute them criminally, either foe a cons spiracy or for perjury—for all this was sworn to, Gentlemen, at Bow-street--and the comae I mean is this--he might have brought a civil action against them all. One of thieve courses he must have taken if the story he now tells is true, that this is all a fiction, and the hese invention of the enemy, but he has not adopted either of these says, satisfied with brtnging these actions, and to try his fortune In ()Moaning from you a sum of money sufficient to en. title him to pocket the costs. Gentlemen, one word before I sit Clown, of public police stymie, to which my Learned Friend has referred, and so triumphantly stated to you as being illegal. A subject of more importance and of greater delicacy cannot be dis cussed, and which I should have been willing to have re frained front commenting upon at all, if it had not been al luded to by my Learned Friend. At the time that this report was made, the opinion was moo genets!, he would not say among the profession, hot among the public, that whatever took place at a public Court. and where the Magistrate did not think proper to exclude the public, might he published. That this opinion was well founded I am now prt vented from saying, because in one of the actions brought by this plaintiff a decision had been come to, the result of which goes against the legitlity of publishing rs-parle proceedings before a Magistrate, and this decision was not come to without much and deep consideration, end after some very learned arguments had teen made upon the question. Put notwithstanding this argument and decision, I feel myself justified in raving the ques tion is one of great difficulty, and that the public, in Wilding the opi nion of the legality of those publication'', was justified, In a popular sense, although they were wrong ; thr.t is. that the Court of King'. Bench were of a contrary opinion. It was at that. time, Gentle men, when every roan out of doors held that opinion, that this re. port was published. This question Is not yet finally and irrevo cably settled, for the decision of the Court of King's Bench has been taken to a higher tribunal, and now awaits the judgment of that superior Court. When you consider, Gentlemen, that the report was published under the conviction of its being legal so to do, and when you look at the conduct of the defendants, I feel satisfied you will be convinced no malicious motives or intentions existed on the part of the editor, of the publisher, or of the proprietors, and that you will not hesitate in giving your :mita for the de fendant, to which I shall look forward with confidence. The LORD CHIEF ehrSTI CR then summed up, at considerable length, remarking that the opinion of the public, as to the legality of publishing ex-p arte proceedings, could not be justified, as the Jnages had frequently declared them to he illegal. lie had no doubt in his own mind that this was a libel, but the question of damages he should leave to the Jury, adding, as he always did, this single observation, that they should be fair and temperate. The Jury turned round and consulted a few minutes, and then bind a verdict for the defendants. COX v. KEAN.

The prisoner Lynn still continues in a very composed state of mind, and employs his time in perusing religious books ; lie cats little. Several Noblemen, anti other distinguished personages, re siding in the county, continue to visit him, and his conversation is marked wilt rationality, and at times he seems to forget altogether the enormity of his crime, and treats it with much levity. When the mystery that hangs over the absence of Mangan is the subject of conversation, he has more than once said—" Poor fellow, I wish he was found," and continues the most solemn asseverations of his innocence as to Daniel's disappearance. The Rev. Alr.Ashtield, the Chaplain of the gaol, is indefatigsble in his exertions to bring the wretched man to a sense of his awful situation, and in which he has been somewhat successful. Road night, one if the principal turnkeys of the prison, is his constant companion, and it: turns with the other turnkeys, sits up with the prisoner nightly. Yesterday morning lie requested to have his beard taken off, which had grown to souse length; it was deemed expedient by Air. Shetiffe, the worthy Governor, not to have him shaved, fearing. front the sac of his mind, and his frequent attempts to destroy himself, that he would avail himself of the opportunity, and effect his purpose with the razor. When the reques t was made by the prisoner, Mr. Sheri& seemed to hesitate; upon which the pri soner said—" Aye, I know you are afraid I shall do myself an injury ; but I won't, you may rely On it: now do let me be shaved." Mr. Sherif& told him he should be shaved, if he promised to be quiet during the operation. The prisoner scented thankful, and declared he would be quiet. lie was then shaved. The following letter has been sent by the brother of Daniel Mangan, to the Rev. Mr. Asitiield, the Chaplein " No. 20._Glasshouse.street, Vauxhall, 13th January, 1325. " Reverend Sir,—Under the impression that you will pardon my presumption in troubling you with this letter, 1 have ventured to make a request, which, if complied with, will be ever considered an obligation. " There is a young man, named Charles Lynn, in Aylesbury gaol, for the murder or Abraham Hogg, and is strongly suspected , in conjunction with Hogg, to be concerned in the extraordinary disappearance of my brother, late postman and messenger to Sir Robert Burnett and Co..

OLD BAILEY, FilD*ll, JAN. 14. [Before Mr. Ser Vase ARAAIN and a lifiJdlesc.r Jury.] BURGLA RT. Matthias Ferran was capitally indicted for breaking into the dwelling-house of Teresa Pearl, and stealing therein sundry boots anti shoes, her property. The prosecutrix stated, that she reeldes at a lodging, situate at 21, Charlton-gnats; Somers Town. The prisoner used to visit is female lodger itethe same house ; witness occupies the parlour and shop. and deals in shoes. In eontaquenee of something being missed, witness had recourse to the following stratagem to disco ver the thief ; she tied a piece of glass to string phe drew through the door, so that if any one entered, the a glass would be removed or broken. Saw the prisoner in the house that day. Wm. Cosensdeposed, that he was to watch the house on the day named in the indictment, which was on a Sunday ; on the follow ing morning he saw the prisoner some out and proceeded towards Cromer-street ; witness pursued, and fonnd on his person several pairs of slices and boots. some of which were concealed in his pocket, and others in his hat. Ile also found a key, which wonkl open Mrs. Peatt's door. Prisoner—'l hat key would open fifty locks. Cot , ktT—No doubt; and it happens to open the lock in ques tion as one of them. The property was produced, and sworn to by the ptoeeeutrix. The prisoner stated in extenuation, that having been out of em ploy three months, he was induced to commit the theft in conse guesses of distress. Mr. Sergeant Anantat maimed up the evidence, and the Jury found the prisoner Gritty of the larceny, and acquitted hlm of the burglary. William Martin, aged 24, was indicted for stealing, on the 27th December last, at St. Margaret, Westminster. twenty-three sove reigns, seven half-sovereigns, and 61. 3s. in silver, the property of George Dawson, in the counting-house of S. Walton. George Dawson esamined.—Witness is hostler to Mrs. Sarah IValton, livery-stable-keeper in King-street, Westminster. The counting-house is in the yard, near the dwelling-lipase. The pro perty named in the indictment was deposited in a desk in the for mer place. Abota seven o'clock on the 27th ult. witness saw his money safe. Prisoner was employed by the witness as a helper lh the stable. On the night In question it was the prisoner's duty to watch in the yard ; witness left early in the evening no person could get into the yard except by the front gate. Witness was absent two hours, but he Aid not go to the courting-house until he was informed by some person that it had been uttered, the desk broken open, and the money stolen. Witntrss inquired of the pria saner whether lie knew any thing of it? Ile said no, anti he might have been asleep in the stable. On the 29th, in the morn ing, witness went with an officer of the name of Dean (since dead) and searched the stable, and at length found the bag of money concealed under the pavement near the manger. The prisoner was , at work in the adjoining stable at the timo the discovery was made. lie denied any knowledge of it. Jane Ferriman, sister to Mrs. Walton, was at home on the evening of the 2Tth. Never heard the bell ring. Saw the gate open, but there was to mark of violence. IVitness shut it, but she afterwards heard it open and shut. She did not see the pri soner about at that time. Win. Moody lives near to Mrs. Walton's yard. He produced the desk which had been broken open. Wni. Woodbury is an officer; he attended at the request of Mrs. Dalton, and searched the prisoner, upon whom he found upwards of 4/ in silver. He also found a shoe which tallied with a footstep near the counting-house. Witness also found a pair of trimming ecirierrs, with which it appeared the d ak was broken open. The prosecutor was recalled.—lle swore to the bag, Sec., but could not identify the money. Theamount found, however, nearly corresponded with that which bad been stolen, both as to quantity and description. The prisoner made no defence, but called a witness to speak to hi previous good character, "Ir. Sergeant Anteing summed up the evidence, and the Jury, with little hesitation, returned a verdict of Gritty—Death—but reeettimended him to mercy, because he did not abscond with the looney, and had a good character. Before Mr. Jurties liotaoYn, and Mr. Justice GAZE LEE. The Court was occupied in the investigation of a barbarous outrage committed by the prisoner f'ornefias Great, a young man sited 2(1, upon Mary Eyres. The conduct of the prisoner appeared marked by features of peculiar atrocity ; and, after a patient in vestigation of ten hours, the Jury returned a verdict of Guilty— Death. NEW COURT. [ Before the COM MON SERGEANT.] James ItrArthry was indicted for stealing two sheets, the pro perty of Captain John Knight. Mr. CARRINGTON stated that he was in a condition to prove that 3lni. Knight, the wife of the prosecutor, saw a person shoot she believed to be the prisoner, take the sheets from a line in the garden nn which they were hanging to dry, and on her giving an alarm, a person named Baader went in pursuit of the thief, and overtook the prisoner in less than tire minutes, with one of the sheets under his ann. These facts were proved by Mrs. 'Knight, a lady of very inter esting appearance ; and Hodder, the witness mentioned by the Leirned Counsel. The prisoner algid in his defence, that lie was attracted to the spot by the alarm given by Mrs. Knight, but lie did not in any way ac count for having the thect under his arm. The Commow SERGEANT recapitulated the evidence; atd the Jury acquitted the prisoner. [Before the RECORDER.] CHARGE OF CHILD STEALING. Mary Bggbrian, a peeson of most respeetsble appearance, and about forty years of age, was indicted for child stealing. Mr. Alley conducted the prosecution ; Mr. C. Phillips, and Mr. Tidd Pratt, the defence. .Mary Burke, the mother of the child, stated that she was the mother of a male child, and about a week after she was delivered, she was on her way with her infant to St. ttiles's workhouse to ob tain medical assistance, when she was accosted by a woman of re spectable appearance, who asked her several questions about her state of health, the age of the child, he. and asked her to take some porter, observing that it would refresh her. :Mrs. Burke ae ctmmanied the stranger to • public-house, where they had some porter, and the latter having ascertained her residence, gave her sixpence ; said she knew a lady who belonged to a charitable insti tution for relieving persons in her condition, and she would speak to that lady in her behalf, and call again on a future day. She kept her appointment, and it was agreed by them to go to the lady on the following Friday, the 20th August. The stranger treated her with great kindness, and staid upon that °crown and ironed a cap for Mrs. Burke and the child, and brought some flannel and other things fur themse of the !Mint. She was on that occasion about an hour and a hell in the room. On the2Oth she came again, and after remaining some time there she and Mrs. Burke, with the infant, stsrtexl to go to '• the Lady's." When they arrived in Gate-street, Lincoln's inn -fields, the stranger said she thought Mrs. Burke must need rest and refreshment, and proposed going into the Sun public. I house, which they did. The stranger called for a pint of porter, and then proposed to have something to eat; gave film Burke some money to go out and purchase bread and cheese and onions, directing her which way to go to find a shop. Mrs. Burke left the child in the anus of the stranger, and when she returned in a few minutes with the provisions, both were gone. The poor mother, thus strangely bereft of her only child, became almost frantic, and ran to Bow-suet Office, and related the occurrence to the Magis trate then sitting. This was unavailing, and no trace was obtrined until about the 21st Dec., when Mrs. Burke, who sells stay-laces and other things in the streets, was standing in Newgate-market, and saw the person now accused, whom she immediately fixed upon as the person who stole her child. Mrs. Burke Continued to follow her until she went into a shop, when she also entered, and d'rectly accused her of stealing her child. A crowd having collected, several persons took part with the accused, and went so tar as to give Mrs. Burke in charge to an officer, and she was conveyed to the Compter for the night, and before the sitting Alderman at Guildhall the following morning. The Alderman, 'diet bearing the charge of the accused, and the answer of Mrs. Burks (who was then, of course, the defendant). discharged the case altogether. Subsequently, namely on Friday last, Mrs. Burke and her huband came to Bow-street, and upon the in formation and oath of the former, a warrant was issued by 31r. hlinstittll, against the accused, for felony in stealing the child. and after her apprehension she was committed. The prosecutrix stated that she was now quite sure that the prisoner was the person who stole the child, and that she had a mark under the eye like the remains of a black eye, caused by a hurt. Cross-examined by Mr. C. PH ILLI re-11 took two women with tile, who saw the prisoner ironing the cap, for the purpose of iden tifying the ii otter. They both then said that they were sure the pnsoner was not the person. I saki so myself. I went down on my knees to beg the prisoner's pardon for charging her, but I did so because I was frightened. The Recount:F. here intimated, that after this it would be difficult to sustain the cue. Mr. ALLEY said, that he certainly felt that ; and that he con sidered, that after all the three women had asserted that the pri soner was not the person, he ought not to press fur a conviction. The RECONDEII told the Jury they had better acquit the prisoner. The Foreman of the Jury observed, that some of' the gentlemen thought that the case ought to proceed, as the prosecutrix appeared to hare been frightened by being taken before the Alderman. Air. ALLEY then said he would call the other witnesses, and he called two women named Barry and Delaney, who stated that they were row convinced of the prisoner's identity; but after a good deal of fencing with the questions, they both distinctly admitted that they heti seiil that they felt sure that the prisoner was not the guilty person, but that they did so because they did not like to be celled as witnesses. Mr. ALLEY now said, that he would never ask any Jury to convict on the evidence of witnesses, that on their confession were guilty of telling falsehoods. The Jury found the priaoner—Not Goffig. Mr. C. PHILLIPS said, that he had witnesses to disprove many of the facts deposed to against the prisoner, and to prove that she WAS t'tc housekeeper of a gentleman named Evans, • respectable rgeons' insaunient-maker, in Old 'Change. Mr. ALLEY—I certainly think the prisonoe was fully entitled to an anmitral.

Catherenr Cabe an old Irishwoman, who has been committed about thirty times to prison during the last ten years, was chsrged with having deliberately walked up stairs to the second floor of a bowie and cleared away a great quantity of valuable clothes. Mrs. APCA:be was secured. In the justice-room she cried and swore, and spoke in the most affectionate terms to the Lord Mayor, who, notwithstanding, com mitted her for three months to Bridewell. GUILDHALL. COASHITT•L OF A TRADZSHAW AS A RECEIVZR STOLE); GOODS.--Mr. William Pearson, upholsterer, No. IV, London-wall, brought his errand-boy, Henry Woollen, before the Sitting Magistrate, Mr. Alderman ft I RCM. on Wedne sday, under the following circumstances ...—About Id days ago, he said, one of his men brought some pieces of braes rod to him which he had found hid iu the cellar, and he (Mr. Pearson) judging mat they had been placed there preparatory to being conveyed away, marked them, and directed the man to put them in the same plate again, sod let him know when they were missing. The man had not looked at them every day, but on Tuesday reported to him that they were gone. Ile called Wootton into the connting.hnuse ou the %I ednadhiy morning, and on charging him with the theft, the boy confessed in having taken them last Monday week, and that lie sold them at Mr. Russell's shop. Bread-strcet Hill. Mr. !'arson having thus put the Alderman in possession)af the facts, requested a search-warrant to ascertain if the property was at Mr. Russell's. This was accordingly granted, and Hawkins, the Alarthalinan, returned shortly afterwards, accompanied by Mr. Russell, and a grown young female, his daughter. Hawkins said that on stating the nature of his errand to Mr. Russell, the latter said he had bought rothing of the kind ; he was not come to search any where, and imntediately pointed out to him the box in which he kept his old metal, which stood open . upon the counter, and from amongst the metal in it Mr. Pennon picked out several pieces of brass rod, which he now produced, all of which Mr. Pearson identified by the marks upon them, as those secreted in hie cellar, and missed as before related. Mr. Russell said that he did not buy the metal from the boy, as was he at home at the time it was bought, nor had he any know ledge whatever that he had such metal. It WAS bought, he found, by hiedaughter. He did not get his living by buying and selling old metal ; he was a vellum binder and stationer, by trade, and hail heel thirty years in the lire. His wife and daughter were principally at they shop., and bought old metal and old regs, but every thing there wets done without any concealment. They kept a book, in which they entered every thing they purchased, and tney never bought even twopennyworth of rags without putting It down, and inquiring where they came front. During all the yen. he had lived in the house, he had never had even the suspicion of a chare of this sort against him, but on the contrary, he had in several' instances detected and brought to justice several persons ofTering stolen property for sale, and his character would beer the strictest inquiry , . Miss Russell said she rstnembered the boy . bringing tile metal for sale. She asked him where he brought it from, and he said from his mother, who tiled at Lambeth. It weighed one pound three-quarters. There were only I:er mother aad herself in the shop ; she bought it, and her mother paid the boy for it lid., and marked Itin the book. The prisoner, when questioned by the Alderman, agreed with Miss Russell as to the sum he received for the metal ; hut still per sisted that there was only ore woman in the shop and Mr. Russell ; that Mr. Russell was behind the counter, and told him the price, but lie could rot recollect whether he weighed the metal, or who gave him the money for it. Mr. Pearson being desirous, if possible, to make an example of the receiver, as, in his opinion, the worse etlbnder of the two, the Alderman remanded the toy till yesterday. Mr. Russell giving bail for his appearance at the re-hearing. He was accordingly in attendance yesterday. Miss Russell repeated, that her father was out all day ; that she bought it, and her mother paid for it. The boy %Vootteri was then sworn, and, in reply to the Alder man, said that he sold it to Ale. Russell and not to his daughter. lie was accorelingly bound over to give evidence, and Mr. Russell would have been committed but that his son, Mr. James Russell, stationer, No. 80, Aldersgate-street, and Al r. Brown, printer and wationer, No. 20, St. John-street, became bail for his appearar.ce to take his trial at the present Old Bailey Sessions. MARY-LA-BONNE OFFICE. Yesterday, Mr. George Cullum Marc-hunt. of Hammersmith, appeared on an information, under the Ganie Laws, for having, on the 29th of December, being an unlicensed person, killed with a gun certain game, on the estate of Mr. John Essex, at Axon. Mr. Alatehant pleaded rot guilty. It was stated that the information was tiled to check the repeated trespasses committed on Mr. Essex's grounds. The case was prayed. Mr. Merchant begged it to be clearly understood that the gun was not kept for poached, and that it was not the act of any com mon vagrant who lived by that kind of plunder, but was only the folly of an incautious moment. He thought the proceeding very unkind, p his family and that of the prosecutor had been intimates and neighbours for above fifty yearn. !Mr. GRIFFITH said, Essex did not appear to come forward willingly; and as the case was proved, he should convict him in the penalty of 31. The costs were paid by the wish of Mr. Essex, who allowed the defendant his own time (one week), to pay the penalty. UNION HALL. A young man named Edreardr was brought before the sitting Magistrate L. B. ALLEN, Eaq., charged with stabbing Edward Berry, one of the night constables of die Surrey watch-house. The prisoner was taken to the watch-house fot an assault on a gentleman, when he snatched a pair of scissors, which were on . the martle-shelf, and made a plunge with it at Berry, who re ceived the point of them a few inches above the groin. The pri soner, after having inflicted the first wound, made a second plunge, which was fortunately avoided. The prisoner, in defence, said that he had received an accident on his head ; and that when under the influence of liquor (as wit, the case on the night in question), he knew not what he did. He vas held to bail, to answer the charge at the Sessions. LONGEVITY. [From the (aurora Clironiek.l In our last we mentioned the death of a very old man at Barrow. field. His name was Benjamin Pinkerton. He was of Scottish descent, but was born in the county of Donegal, his forefathers having fled there from Scotland during the time of the religious persecution. The family have been remarkable for longevity ; his father hay ing died aged 106, and an uncle of his attained 19, and another 11l years ; and they had scarcely ever a day's sickness. The de ceased came over to this country about 21 years ago, and wrought regularly at his trade as a shoemaker, at the Black Quarry, till lie was SC. Ilia wite died aged about 70, he having been advanced in life when he married. About three years ago he lost the sight of one of his eyes front a cold. He still continued to do a little for his support by mending shoes , and a daughter of his, aged 50. resided with him, and went about selling eggs, &c. for their mutual subsistence. The poor old man was, however, very far front being properly attended to during the increasing infirmity and helpless of his advanced age ; and numerous were the mournful complaints he made to his acquaintances of the neglect shown him in his old age. Ultimately the hoary-headed sage was forced to occupy the wretched hole in which he died at Barrowtield—the entrance to it was only though a mass of filth, and wading in dirty water, which rendered the air quite impure. It is a spot well worthy of a visit from the believers of the doctrine that poverty increases with the means provided for its relict'. In this cold, damp,„clark, dirty ceil did the old pilgrim and his daughter exist ; and when death came to his aid, his daughter had to keep candles burning during the day, to prevent people, when coming into their dreary abode of dark ness, from upsetting her father's remains. There was nothing in the shape of furniture to be seen, except an old chair or two ; and the eye filled on observing the miserable pallet on which his venerable Inane hail lain during his illness. lie was ra ther small in stature, but was uncoturnonly active and smart, considering his years. He walked about till within a short time of his death. wrapped up in a wrt of great coat, sup port:a by his favourite stuff. He was of a remarkably lively and cheerful disposition, had a very pleasing aspect, and it was astonishing to witness the animation wild' he exhi bited in conversation. displaying all the fire of youth. His intellect was little impaired, and lie was tractable to the last. He had a very retentive memory, and was engaging company. He would talk for hours of his tarty courtships, and the exploits of his youth. Ile could give a very intelligent account of the events of the times when he was in his prime, and the only mark of im becility he displayed was when he had ran through his story. Tben, refixting on his destitute situation, and the hard-heart. ednesa of his friends, he liseame quite enraged, stamped his feet, and shook his stuff in displeasure, and declared his determination 1 to commence law proceedings against them. The rent of the place he lodged in. three shillings a month, was paid for him ; and he was allowed 18d. for sustenance. He was at harvest when he was 100 years of age ; and when lie was 102, he reaped nearly two days at Attkenbead, on the Kil:narnock mad. He was placed among the last of the rigs, that he might come up at leisure; but the „spirited veteran epurned at this, end took his station among the foremost of the shearers, and wait the third out of 50 that were first done with their rigs. Ile made a pair of shoes for himself when he was 100 years of age, and within these three months he mended his own shoes. He was able to prepare the yarn for that purpose, and put the bristle into it. He could see to thread a needle, and mended his clothes till he was confined to bed. He was of cleanly habits, and shaved himself till within a fortnight of his death. His voice was good, though of course much declined, and he could sing an excellent song be had learned during the troublesome times of 1/45. His appetite continued goal till his last illness ; and he could partake tit: any kind of food. lie was uncommonly fund of smoking, and just bet to his dissolution, though he had not strength' to draw the smoke, still ft was a satisfaction to him to have the pipe placed between his teeth. He was uncommonly abstinent in drinking all his life 4 for the last half century, he said lie bad not drank half a ntutchkin of whisky. On new year's morning the patnarch was tithed ap in his bed, and said he was far through, and this was the last nut year's morning Its would see : bat he would drink all their healthy', and many happy returns of the season. He then took a glees of gin, saying it was a long time since he had Annk, and it was the best' spirits he had tasted for twenty years. lie invariably invoked a blessing before taking his meals. Hr called all'his children about him, gave them his last biasing, and charged them to bury him beside the remains of Ids beloved wife. On Tuesday morning he expired, ea if la a sleep. MARKETS.
