This done, witness carefully deposited the packet in his bosom, and then delivered the prisoner the former pledges before shaded to, and gave him the difference in notes and sovereigns to the amount of 1601. in the whole, when the prisoner went away, a:!d witness almost immediately repaired to the iron chest to de. posit the precious stones then put in his possession, where they rttqiiined until the beupuning of June. when the parcel was opened. and found to contain some rubies and emeralds, of inconsiderable value. Mr. Cr RWOOD, for the defence, submitted to the Court that tbF charge of felony could not be marsh:led for, to say the most of it. it only amounted to a flllll , l.

On Saturday, a hisal;l47i, — nearly7o Teari of age. with a Pad p grey OS 11011 01 a bsJger, was brought before the Loan 'Maros, by the Overseers of a parish, charged upon a case of haste r 4. Tripp, the beadle of the parish, stated that Llnyd, the prisoner, hart no idea of casting a doubt upon the alleged paternity, and I is 'ifs, so far from feeling as most wives would probably feel under such circumstances, bad determined to nurse the child her self. pro i , deci it bore the colour of her husband, who was as yet childless, and who had a very great desire to be a father. The LOlllO MAYOR asked the defendant whether he bad any thing to say upon the subject ? The Bird: grinned and shook his head. " I've no objection," said be, " my Lord, to take care of de young one. so that it hap pen to be my own, and we'll soon see dat." He then leered at his wire and Iris frail companion, who seemed to be on the best of tonna with each other. Thl LORD MAYOR asked the latter how, in the name of al that was horrible, she could have evert thought of injuring the prime of Mrs. Lloyd!' Mrs. Lloyd answered the question with a smile. She declared that her husband was a good tsllow, and that she felt no animositit at-all upon the occasion. As for the babe. if it proved to be the right colour, she would take the greatest care of it. and if it proved white she hoped the parish would look out for another father. Rachel Jacobs, the second or third woman who saw the defend ant's " visage in his mind," kissed the book, and upon being desired to point oat the father, •` There he stands," said she, " that 'ere black old gentleman." Tripp said, that to do Mrs. Lloyd justice, she was one of the roost Indulgent of wives, for the moment she heard what had hap. petted to Rachel she said she would be godmother to whatever God pleased to send, and was now actually employed in making baby clothes. The LORD MAYOR, seemed not at 01 surprised at the con tented manner in which Mrs. Lloyd bore the news that her Ciishand had transferred his tivours to another woman; but his :....ortlahip could not help again expressing his amazement at the ,:range spirit of rivalry with which Rachel had been seized. Rachel Jacobs held down her heed, and pleaded the disparity of yaps. wbich gave the defendant such an advantage over her. " Why how old are you P" said the LORD MAYOR, who did roe think she was such a chicken as she wished to be thought. rlet.hel—Mr. Lloyd, your Lordship, is near seventy, and I'm nn! e. tarty-One. The LORD MAYO* admitted that there was a disparity, but he thought that the youth of the female was scarcely an excuse, not waits:ending the powerful temptation to which she was exposed. The order was then made out; but if the child should turn out white. the parish officers must disregard the oath of Rachel, and part bee judgment to another trial amongst the Inhabitants of Dikes-place. MARLBOROUGH-STREET. bet Saturday, after the office was closed for the day, Mr. Conant, the resident 3legistrate, was applied to for assistance under the following singular circu mai anent : It appeared that one of the Ring's messengers, Mr. Welch, had commissioned the upholsterers, Messrs. France and Basting, of ?a,ilanall, to let his house, I\o.B, Charles -street, St. James's scoots, at a rent which was to be paid weekly. The house admi. :gip salted the taste of a Mr. Goold, a tall, gentlemanly person, etio.forthwlth agreed to take it. It did not appear that Mr. Chad had the slightest objection to the amount of the rent, but it was obvious that h. was by no means pleased with the rather plebeian practice of paying rent, like a journeyman's wages, Ri the week. Bach a mode of settlement would have given his cadence an ungenteel rut, and accordingly for six weeks he did net trouble Messrs. France and Bunting with any Units upon till subject. Them gentlemen's motions upon the score of rent hstipened, however, to be English. whilst Mr. Goold had evidently imbibed his Ideas In Ireland; and with the subject of net lie natutailv associated the recollections of middlemen, dis tress, a..aul;, battery, action, and indictment, with numberless other Wyo.. I.llr understood by Irish landlords and tenants. If the mausyee mirusied by his Majesty to Mr. Welch were longer, they certainly were not so numerous or so troublesome, and un etwestionably much less dangerous, than the messages which Messrs. Fiance and Panting had to send to the redoubtable Mr. Goold and his Irish servant Dcly, to obtain the arrears of tent. At ileildth. hoverer, Mr. Bunting contrived, by a happy manoeuvre, to lust a diet:ens into the house, and hennaed upon a piano -forte, unich some locking music-dealer had been induced to let out upon hire to Mr. (bold No sooner, however, had Mr. Bent irg left his office. in quiet possession of the house, than Mr. 'hold, raking him by the shoulders, thrust him into the street, Lrailing an BiLernisit gunnlian of the night, he consigned Si:era's officer to his custody.

WORSHIP-STREET. hwtnntixo.--On Saturday last this office W3ll much crowded, chiefly by silk manufacturers from the neighbourhood of Spical. fields and Bethnal-grecn, to witness the examination of a person named Peter Atkinsme, who had been arrested the preceding even ing, charged with various fraudulent transactions. It appeared that lie was in someway eons exted wiith a firm calling themselves " Alexander %Vele!' and C 0.," general warehousemen, 7s, Queen.street, Cheaps'ile, who have fur some ir.ootha pair dealt extensively in the 'ilk trade, and are now charged with having de frauded various manufacturers of that article of property Litt very considerable ■mnwnt. The prisoner was Hrst placed at the her in the public office, but In contequence of some arrangement between the sitting Magistrate (Mr. B) NETT) and Mr. Dennis, of Austinfriars, who appeared professitraelly for the complainants, the prisoner ►as removed to the private room, and it was ordered that the witnesses should be admitted and examined separately. Beveval witnoeves gtve evidence of Jiff rent acts by which the prisoner had obtained possession of their voile to a considerable extent. The further besting was postponed until evening. but upon the application of Mr. Dumis, the examination wu further postponed until Monday (this day). At this last examination, Mr. Miller, the solicitor, and several mfrobtrs of the Guardian Society, were present ; and it is under stood that the future proceedings will be conducted by them. TOWN-HALL. Host" Thomas, a haekney-coachman, wait nn Saturday brought before Alderman Smith. by Mr. Hill, a surgical student residing in Weston-street, Bertspndsey, on a summons for charging more than his fare, who stated that Master Thomas was called from the stand in Gooch -street, Tottenham-court-road, to take up at the north end of Thornhaugb.street, Fitzroy-square, and convey the comolsinant to Weston-street. Bermondsey, to set down two friends in his passage at the Post-office. Lombard•atreet, and for which service he de manded 4a. Rd. and took it. To this Master Thomas, a son of the whip, rat& " I'll tell your Worship all I knew, of this here btetiress, and I know. that I have measured every inch of the ground my tits travelled over by the wheel of our club."—" Your club?" said his Worship. " Yes, our club," answered Jehu ; " it's established to protect us honest coachmen, and I knows the wheel clicked in Southampton-street, Bloomsbury; in llliddle.row, Holborn; in Newgate-streets in Lombard -street, and the three miles and a half clicked half a fur long this here side of the gentleman's lodgings; but the gentleman may bare it measured again if he likes, for I hate* di.honesty." His Worship paused in admiration ! The complainant stared at the ra►e rats, and s wag content to take the honest man's ward. " But my lost time, your Worship," said thin rare blot. " You are entitled to 2a." said the .Magistrate. • " pay it," Said the student. " And the exponent." said the clerk. " I'll pay them also," said the gentleman. The coachman drew the nether side of the right sleeve of his dreadnought athwart the creep nap of his canter. The gentleman shelled out—the Magistrate looked—, eoachee grinned, sad the audieece burst into • di of rowing laughter. UNION-HALL. POLYGAMY.— Saturday Joho Jacobs, alias the Hon. Capt. lie mi/ton, was brought before L. B. Allen, B.q. on a writ of Herbals Corpus, from the King's Bench prison, at the instance of Mrs. Francis Vitellis Baspaldo, on • charge of having contracted mar riage with her at Paris in May lost, he then having a lawful wife living. The examination wen carried en is the prorate room, in consequence of the of being filled with parties engaged in other eases. Much interest was excited on account of the respectability of the parties concerned. The prorecutrix was considerably agitated during the investiga tion, but the prisoner seemed totally regatdLtse of his situation. Before the proceedings were commenced, the prisoner begged the Magistrate to exclude the gentlemen gannected with the press, as in all probability the names of sonic noblemen, and others moving in the first circles, to whom he claimed relationship by marriage, might be dragged forward, and unnecessarily brought befcre the public. Mr. ALLEN said, that he had always carried on examinations in public, except where a premature exposure might defeat the ends of juatice t in this came he saw no reason to deviate from his regular practice of administering public justice, and therefore he should not exclude the gentlemen who had attended for the public papers. The prisoner then begged the reporters not to give the proceed• logs of this examination, because the statement would be ex-parte. Failing in this application, he requested that the examination might be pestponed, as his evidence was not ready. Axxar desired Mr. Butler, who attended for Mr. Harmer, to proceed with his witnesses. _ ..... Mary Eyre, the first witness, was called to prove that a marriage had taken place between Mr. Jacobs and a young girl, named Do. rothea Donovan, at Cove, in the county of Cork, but she seemed to have lost all recollection of dates, and, after • long examination, the Magistrate was of opinion that she did not establish the first mar riage. . . _ - 111 r. BUTLER said that the mother of Mary Eyre could prove the fact of the marriage beyond all doubt. A messenger was therefore despatched for hit., and in the mean time the evidence of the pet. goner's second marriage was heard. Lieutenant Richard Butler was then examined. I know the pri toner very . well. I am an officer in an infantry regiment ; I was formerly in the Guards. The prisoner was married to Miss Ca therine Fitzgerald, a beautiful and accomplished young lady, on the 23d of January, 1817, et the church of St. Michael, Bath. I remember the day well, it being the one on which I was married myself. The marriage between the prisoner and Miss Fitzgerald, as well as mine, was solemnised according to the forms of the Established Church. I know that Mr. and Mrs. Jacobs lived toge ther as man and wife a considerable time; I have seen them toge ther, both in Dublin and in London. I have nut seen Mrs. Jig cobs, she who was married at Bath. recently. Mr. BUTLER stated, that the lady had been summoned in order to be identified, but that she bed refused to attend. On the suggestion of Mr. Staples. she Chief Clerk, a warrant was issued, requiring her immediate attendance. But, although the p•oreedings were procrastinated to a late hour, no intelligence of this lady reached the office. Lieutenant Butler cross-examined—l do not know that proceed. in relate!e to the marriage of Mr. Jacobs and Dorothea Donovan have taken place in the Court of Arches. I should think that Alias Fitzgerald we. about 21 or 22 years of age when she was married to Mr. Jacobs. Mr. RITTtrII then produced the certificate of the prolecutries marriage with the prisoner, which was solemnised be him in the name of " John Julian Hamilton, widower, of the City of Glas gow,"at the House of the British Ambassador at Paris, on the 10th of May last. The Magistrate having left the room, understanding that the witness who bad been sent for could not be in attendance for some hours, we collected the following particulars respecting the pri !toner's life and habits. It impairs that he is of the Jewish per.. suasion, and was fitted out by his hither for Demerara in 1813. on board a ship; that on arriving in the Cove of Cork, be eon. trscted the marriage with Dorothea Donovan ; they both were minors at the time. In 1817 be was Introduced to Illisa Fitagerali, to whom he made love passionately. She listened to his addresses, and at length became his wife, in spite of the advice of her friends and relations. Her health, it is said, is now declining. About a year and a half ago, the prisoner was an inmate of the King's Bench ; he was admitted to the rules, which he presently broke, and went to Paris, where he became acquEnted with the prosectitrix, -Wider the assumed name of the flooourable Captain Hamilton, representing himself as the eon of Lord Charles Hamilton, and in the service of Mr. Canning. He was much in debt when he married bin. Riapaldo. Ssme processes had been taken out against him. lle therefore persuaded his nowly.scouired wife to quit Parts with him in mediately. He professed to have written to the British Government for 6001: which be said would await hint nt Calais, mad in order to arnve there safely, it was nrranged that site should obtain a passport in another name, and he clothe himself in her livery. In this manner he reached London. In the course of the last summer, being tired of the Me. gropolis, he set out for Worthing, leaving the prosecutrix behind, and when there, he made an oiler of marriage to Mrs o—. He afterwards went to Portsmouth, and attempted to purchase an estate in that neighbourhood. Between four and five o'clock the mother of the first witness ap. peered; but the hour heing so late, Mr. ALLEN said it would be impossible to take the depositions that day, so the cane must stand Over. Mr. ntret.Ert was understood to say, that he should at Ono pre file an indictment, the Assizes being now at band. After s short dismission about whether the prisoner should be Committed to gaol, or return to the King's Bench Prison, it was decided that he should go to the latter place. He wks accordingly taken thither by the tipster, who had brought him up with the understanding that he would I.e prosecuted without &lay.

JEALOUSY A .VD MURDER. [From the Glasgow , Citron*le. Dee. 81 A dreadful homicide was perpetrated on Monday night at Bar. rowlield.road, In the house of a eotton-spinner, of the name of Thomas Wl:be-a°, who, being discharged from flarroweed mill at the time he was mentioned in Keen's confession, lately took up his residence at a public-house in that vicinity. which inns the general rendeavoits of the cotton-spinners. A raffle was held in the house on Monday evening, for the purpose of enabling an old spinner to make up his rent. A number of persool were conse quently collected, among them several females. The raffle was succeeded by a dance. There were several companies in the house, and Charles Campbell, who is charged with the crime, hstl been drinking with some companians. A person of the name of John Orr, • cotton-spinner, came into the house about ten o'clock with Sarah AlsVicar, Campbell's wife. He had g one to her father's hour-, and though she was in her shirt, he had advised her to dress, and go to the (lance. Orr took her up to dance a reel, and Campbell took another partner, not knowmg his own wife was there. In dancing the teel, Campbell saw his wife, and patted her on the side of the head, and they spoke a few words to each other. After the reel was over, Orr and some other's retired into a back room to have some whits ty. When Cempliell went into the room, he saw his wile sitting on the knee of D.tniell Orr, brother to John above mentioned, both brothers being unemployed spinners, when he said it would be as propet for her to he sitting on his knee. She replied, " you have got nothing to do with tile; go to your wife and family at Johnstone." Campbell denied this, and said it wns oily a girl who had a child to him there. Oa this he made two strokes at his wife with a knife, but was prevented doing her any berm. Some more high words having plumed between them while she kept sitting on the opposite side of the table, he watched the opportunity, and rising up, plunged the knife into her bosom. She immediately rose, and screamed " get a doctor, for I am gone." She ran from the back room through the kitchen, hold. ing her breast with her two hands. the blood streaming from it. She reached the pavement, bet almost instantly fell. She was car ried inside the shop frame the counter, till medical outshine* could be procured. 'I he blood was spouting from her bosom, and flossing through the house. She cried " I sot gone; God be met. ciful to my soul !" Dr. Callaghan was called up about midnight, by T. Al`Gowan, the landlord, who requested him to come in haste, as there was a girl who had got stabbed in the neck in his house. The Doctor went as fast as possible, and saw her lying on the shop tenor with her head to the door, and her upper garments all covered with blood. The Doctor requested that she should be removed lo on inner nom. There turner/era! persons rending around her, some of whom lifted her up, took her into a room, and laid her on some chairs. There was a quantity of dotted blood on the zroond, where she had been lying. Site could not be got to lie pro perly on the chain. so that an opportunity might he afforded of examining the wound. She ass laid on the floor. Dr. Callaghan saw of clear arterial blood, a few jets spring front the wound. A forger being placed on the wound, the bleeding ceased externally. The wound was situated in the front of the neck, immediately above the ater. num or breast bone, and was about half an inch to length. The deceased spoke once or twice, but indistinctly; particularly she asked for drink, which was given her by the landlord. She wrought violently with her arms, which were held by some persons present, while Dr. Callaghan examined the wound. e very ',nip. torn of death was fast approaching. The pupil of the eye was dilated, the pulsation ass imperceptible, the countenance was coda verous;and the lower jaw felL It might have been about fifteen minutes from the time the doctor first saw her till life wax extinct. On the fatal deed being perpetrated, some of Campbell's com panions let him out by the back-door. The toll-keeper of Barrow. field very properly watched a; the close till he came nut, when he seised him and thrust him Into the house. He had to step over his wife's bleeding lady into M•flowan's house. A party of the Cal ton patrol crrived and took him to the office about one o'clock on Tuesday morning. The Superintendent and a party went to the public.house, and made prisoner of John Orr, and a woman. Wile body of the deceased was wrapped in • cloak. and ear ned by the patrol to the Calton office. Mr. Leckie went to the house of the deceased's father, where he found the family awaiting her arrival from the dance. The melancholy event was made known to her parents, in the way loud stunting, through the medium of the deceased's cousin, to whom it was imparted at the door by Mr. Leckie. Between 4 and 5, the body was taken to her parent's house in Afillroad-street, and is was heart.rendlng to hear the lamentations of the familyy. Her father is a labourer, and the deceased wrought in a cotton mill. A breakfast knife with a sheep point was found on the floor, with which, it is supposed, the wound was is. Aimed. Campbell said he went home to his mother's for the knife, after Orr had provoked him about his wife. The deceased was a good.looking young woman, aged eighteen years. Campbell seems to be about thirty. He appeared to be drunk when he was taken to the Calton police office. He slept on the floor of the office from about one o'clock till six in the morning. He then tried to p_t_uo, but his limbs were so feeble that he was unable till a s s i s t e d. When be awakened he did not appear to know whet he had done. The Superintendent asked him hew he was ? He replied, what are you that knows me ? What news this morning ? He was told it was bad news; and when informed what he had done, he wrung his hands, and tore his hair, and said he had murdered die best of women. "We will not be long separate ; I hope we will meet In' Heaven. I will put an end to my own existence; you will never see me executed—(he said this several timeel—l wish I had a dug. ger, I would put it into my breast. Where are you, try dear Sally ? Where are you, Sally ? Many a happy hour we have had together; you are gone, and I shall soon be with you. I have sent her to eternity in an unprepared state, and I must expect to lose my life as I hays taken hers ;" and knocking his forehead with his hands, cried out in a distracted manner—" Oh. that the Lord may impute her sins to me, as I mutate occasion of her untimely end ! If the half of the world was mine, I would give it to re store her to life, but that is impossible, and I must follow Sally; oh, that villain, he was the occasion of all this 1 I toyed the lassie ; she wax a bonnie lassie; and where love is in the cue. jealousy is soon kindled. I bred her to distraction. and would sooner suffer death titan s e e her polluted. That rascal is ell to blame ; he went to her fathers. and brought my wife to the public-house without my knowledge. I was dancing among the rest, when to my asto nishment I found my dear wife before medancing along with OR. I patted her on the cheek, and said, ` are you there?' and she did the same to me In return. I advised her to go home, but On-, to provoke me, kept her dancing and singing, and evidently for his own purposes wished to fill her drunk.' . Campbell further stated that he then left the dancing room in a high state of Irritation, and joined his own company. He aftermath asked the landlord to tell his wife to came out, but she would not come to him. Orr then took liar into the room a here Campbell was drinking, and sat down with her on his knee before Campbell. and said he meant to pus • part of the night with her. He rave he was much intoxicated, and has only a feint recollection of committing the deed. He was In flamed with jealousy and desperation. " Sally wan sitting opposite Ito me along with Orr. We had a little chat, and I thought elle rather slighted me, when I *manic up in • passion, and. God help me I plunged the knife into bar bosom. On my making the first attempt, they should have disarmed me, when they saw the lutist ' went iu my hand." He was merely placed at the bar of the police office, and told that his case would be examined in a superior Court. He was then taken to the Fiscal office on Tuesday forenoon in a noddy, and afterwards sent to gaol. He said to those around, " farewell, I'll never see you more." There was a great crowd collected to wit. ness his departure. He is of low stature, and has something for lorn in his aspect. He said none could feel his present distress, and he would not know the full extent of it till he was in the soli tary cell. He said he had wrought with her in the same mill, and had courted her for three years ; they were scarcely ever separate at night, and looking out at the coach window opposite Tradeston, he said, " many a happy night my dear Sally and I have had there together." He kept lamenting the fatal deed. He state' that he belongs to Tarbert, Argyleahire, end has respectable friends there. He was bred a cotton-spinner, but while at that business lie attended the medical classes of the college, and prac tised as a surgeon in Tarbert for three years. If he had taken care of himself a lady there offered to procure him the practice den families, that would have been worth 1001. a year to him. Became back to Glasgow about four years ago, and has since wrought as a crettin-spinner. He seems from his conversation to have abilities. Lie occasionally wrote poetry. He was one of the principal leaders of the epinnen combinanon. He wrote letters, aced did other busi. nest for them, lie says be received nothing for his trouble. During the strike he got only the acme allowance as the rest, some time, 2e. dd. or 31. ed. a week. About three months ago he lost his situation in Mr. AlThaire mill by displeasing his employer. He had no allowance from the aatiOrMiioll, as his quarrel did rot con cern the trade. He has since been going about idle, sod imputes his ruin to whisky. He is said to have been rather in a deranged state for sometime back, especially when intoxicated. About six weeks ago he called on Dr. Callaghan for advice respecting some disease. He said he was sitting in an apartment some short time previously, opposite a window, when some one neer him gave a shrill whistle. He felt it going through him like lightning, and immediately felt himself affected in a manner which he de scribed. On examination, nutting was found wrong. On the Doctor reasoning with hint he found him perfectly insane on this point. The story prrmagated yesterdo_y that Campbell had been con fined in the Lunatic Asylum is false. Campbell says he had been married to the deceased abont a year. The couple had not taken up house, but occasionally saw each other. He had repeatedly pressed her to go with him to Tarbett, when he would resume business as a surgeon, but she positively declined to go. He received no countenance from her parents, when it was known that he had two illegitimate children at Johnston. It Is said that this Campbell is one of those who furnished the information sent to Rime respecting the cotton spinners.-- .We are informed that the police have had their eyes on him for some time, and had anr thin. been done by the c o tton spinners' combination , combination, he would have been the first person that would have been Invited after. The unfortunate woman thus suddenly cut off was the grand daughter of poor widow Allan, whose deplorable case, with an allowance from the Session of Is. 3d. a week to fend, clothe, and lodge her, it the advanced age of eighty-nine yeah, was formtely mentioned.

If any man could convince him of the contrary. he could promise the Catholics should cease front holding such meeting% (Hear.) He had brought the draught'of a petition to Parliament, which he should read for them.
