~r i d Eavr.rox OF SHERIFFS. Yesterday the Election of trrror the ensuing year took Om nt Outkihall, and Aldermen BROWN and KEY were unanimously chosen, after the usual form*. 'Flom was, at the cmmnencement of the businem, a good deal or merriment ^cited by the cordial manner in which Mr. Sa muel •nd Mr. Henry Hunt approached each other on the hustings, and shook hands. Since Mr. Hunt has heroines cormroaster, he ha. greatly increasoil the number of his city friends, and he was on this occasion complimented by persona of notorimody different po litical piir+uits, upon the perfect restoration of his health and appearam e. When the Lord Mayor and Aldermen returned to the hustings front the l'otirt of Aldermen, and the appointment of the Sheriffs was declared in due font!, Akierwan Itnoww addressed the Livery. No man, he said, could more deeply feel the responsibility 'opened upon him by the tare of his fellow-citizens, than he did himself; a responsibility, which was incensed by their great indulgence in ullowing him to *erre the office at his own time, and by associating him with a col- I' sour for whom he had the highest respect, and whom he was proud thus publicly to acknowledge his friend. It had always been upon rierso.ions of this kind customaty to express the nature of the seminients of those who entered upon the duties of Sheriffs. Ile should merely say, that he had boldly exercised and declared his opinions as an Englishman. He should continue to da so; and whilst lie claimed respect for the expression of his own sentiments, he should entertain a corresponding feeling towards those of others. But in this situation it would, he thought, be his duty to abstain trout the expression of any opinion whatever respecting political men or measures. Some of his duties would, he knew, press upon him heavily, and particularly that of the custody of those actually convicted, and those under the imputation of crime, upon whom the law thought it necessary to place restraints. During the !Petallike there would doubtless be sonic who, under the strong arm of the law, must depart to smother world, to appear be bee thrir Maker, and their Judge. Ile should do all in his p .wer in render the condition of the unfortunate malefactors endurable as passible; and lie felt assured and consoled at th.` assurance that he should have the aid of many humane per sons, ti eder whose immediate tare and inspection they were placed, toperi!olly of that benevolent gentleman whine duty it was to admittooir to them the consolation of religion. It would become his duty to innovate on customs which were considered by some as almost established, but in so doing, he would be only acting in sub. envie:try to principles, to which every thing must give way ; and at the espOation of his office, it would be his gratest reward to olvain the approbation of his fellow.citiwns. (Loud applause.) Alderman Kra most warmly thanked the !Avery for the bonnet thew had conferred upon him, and said that he readily a n d cheerfully consentedto undertake all the duties of the office. Being thus called to the honour, he could no: help congratulating his tellow.eintoms, his colleague, and himself, that the duties devolved upon him at a period of peace and prosperity, after war and tumult, sued agitation had passed away, never, he hoped, to return. The defies of the office. whether they proved to be light or heavy. he should pertimn to the best of his ability. With respect to the Timone.s who should be necessarily in hi s eustode, it would be his duty a+ a I 'longish to use every meuns in his power to endeavour ao Ilit , lllte their stiffrings, and to reform their habits, and to those nnaenpv iiirdenictors whom the law declared to be unlit to remain in Ifin world, he should render every aid in preparing them for that which they were destined prematurely to enter. Ile trusted tilt. he :old his most respectable colleague would be always •.‘un4l united for the benefit of the City, and for the preservation o.' its banchite, and that when they resigned their office, it would he 1l Ivi have passed through their hands unimpaired. If they tailed in any r,..siie^t it would he from a want of knowledge, and rot from any want of heelination to their duty. Lastly, it shook! `ne their effort to maintain the office in all its dignity and splendor, am) with a tie of hospitality worthy of this great city. (Loud eileers,l had been mentioned by his colleague, that they would tr•-•!.t their duty to make some innovations in customs almost estab. rsheu ; but those innovations (we understood the worthy Alder isnot to say) would in no respect depreciate the office in its 'picador es dignity. CITY ACCOUNTS. Tile anditora then came forward and read a statement of the finance aff..i-4 of the Lord 3layor. Aldermen, and Commonalty of tit.: Cif r London up to the 3lst May last. From that account it eppeared that the revenue of the city, up to last year, amounted to tile auto of 132,7341/., and that a balance of 8,6t151. had been left in the hotels of the Chamberlain after the total expenditure. The items were road with extreme indistinctness, and seemed to refer rather to what was mere matter of form than to what may be con sidered as real business, if the manner of the reader be a criterion far judgment. Air. HUNT bowed to the Lord Mayor, and said he had a few words to nner.--Although he had stood very chose to the Auditors and bad a very sharp ear, he had not been able to hear anything dis tinctly of this account of the city's cash. The Livery, who were deeply interestnt in the disposal of their own money, hal heard the sums of 40,000/. and 60,000/. mentioned without learning what it was all about. Thin was a strange way of proceeding, and one which he knew could not be very palatable, insomuch as it was a disposal of the property of the Commonalty without letting them know whether it was a proper and judicious disposal or not. Now lie should proyese that the account just read should be published Sat. the benefit of thowe to whom the money belonged. (Applause, ith a mixture of disapprobation). Surely those who had the care of their cash could have no objection to publish an account of its management. to enable their employee to decide whether they were trustworthy or not. Those auditors were appointed by the 'Seery, and it was their duty to see that all the city money wasp pecly received and properly expended. But instead of doing so be understood that they merely confined their exertions to reading over an acceunt and presenting it to the Corporation. This sort of work should be inquired into, and he therefore 'boob' move fur the pab holden of the accounts. One of the Auditors said they were always published. Mr. Hoar asked where, and by whom, and for whom? TheArtorroa said, by the Corporation. Mr. HOST—Oh ! So those who manage and spend the cash ef the City are the persons for whom the accounts are published. They publish those accounts amongst themselves ; I dare say very few of these who pay the money are informed upon the manner of its disposal. The A CDIT on said that 12,000 copies were printed fur the use of the livery annually. Mr. HITNT—Very well, we'll see that. Gentlemen, have any of you seen or read any of these 12,000 copies ? The err amongst the livery was, that they had never seen them. Mr. Ili's:T-1 amine yowl am in just the same predicament; se that if they publish 12,000 copies under the pretence of publishing them to you, and afterwards put them into the fire, the hoax and imposition upon you are palpable. You are put to a needle's ex. pease, under the pretext of llseing informed upon a subject of the highest importance to you, while at the same time the mains of in.. -farroation for which you pay are withheld. lam not aware who those Auditors are ; I dare say they are respectable men, and that all those immense sums which we know so little about may be very properly applied. We are hoe ever bound to have a sharp look out that they are so. I shall therefore submit my motion, in order to' have the matter investigated. Will any one second my motion ? Several Liverymen volunteered, and the motion was acconded by (AUK tots JACKSON, citizen and felt-maket. Mr. Heux—Now, I leave it to any One to say, whether it is not as important that the Livery should examine into the accounts of those who have a power over their properties, as to listen to the worthy Sheriffs declaring, that they would pass people into the other world as easy as they. could, and all that sort of thing. (Loud 'laughter.) Ido not by this insinuate that the Sheriffs will not per form their duty, and merit the thanks of their fellow-citizens at the close of the year. As the motion was about to be put— The Loan MAYOR came !inward. and said—The motion is, that the Auditors accounts be published for the use of the Livery. 1 do not know out of what fund the expense is to be defrayal . • how the copies are to be disposed of or paid for. I know of no funds which are at the disposal of the Livery. Mr. 110,1 T—Indeed ! Why. Gentlemen, don't we know that we have our own funds, ef which this account has just been sub -mined to us. If we have nothing to do with that account why is it rend to us ? I say you have funds. of your own, and I shall leave it to yourselves to decide upon dt fraying the expenses out of those funds. (Laughter and applause.) The motion was then put and carried by a great majority. The Loup Mayon again came forward, and begged to auk the Llvery who was to print and publish and distribute the copies ; or fiat whence they were to be paid for? Mr. Ili N T-1 iut of our own funds, to bemire. Let our Town I Clerk publish thorn, and let them be left is our own plan for our own use. Let troy Liveryman who pleases examine them ; and 1 t cs be beholden to no one. A I. , veryman asked where the money came from to pay foe the I:fitat copies which the Auditor said bad been printed Toe Auditor said that was a mistake. No 12,000 copies had l'ect. printed. The !man MAYOR raid, he wicked to make a few observations %planation. The City Funds were all under the management of the Corporation at large, who appointed the officers for the pur -1 /we; but with respect to any fwds that were under the direct or eisinct control of the Livery, he knew of none, and he believed tier: were none. Ile knew this, because he had tried it acme time ago, with respect to the payment fur MOW resolutions which the Livery voted should he inserted in the public Papers. It being found that the Livery had no funds, the Corporation were applied to, and they did not think proper to pay for theta. He merely stated these Gress, without giving any optmon on them, either one way or the Other. Mr. Hunt—Why, we are told we have very large funds; and 1 hope and trust. notwithstanding what has been baud, that some quarter sr . .it be found from which this eery small expense nifty be ',arrayed. Surely our patriotic Lord Mayer will not think it too treat a sacrifice, .for the benefit of his fellow citizens, to get it done. Bffhaps he will pay foe it; at all events, we can pay for it amongst us. Let tha Lord Mayor 'tat down something toward* it, and I w . . 11 cote? it. (Hissing.) Witat is there to hiss at, when I offer to subscribe to get it done. In the account the money is said to he long to the Lord Mayor, Aldermea, and Commonalty of the City t.f London. I hope tbe woni " Commonalty" will in future be st rick out, if lee are to be toll that we have no control over the to ,nay. The roomon-crier here dissolved the Hall.

HATTON.UARDEN. ADVF.TEFATTOX OF FLOoll.—Yesterday AtAiss, • baker, living at 20, Lower Smith-street, Northampton-square, Ckrkenwell, was charged on information with having on his pre. miscs a quantity of Sal Amoniec, for the purp ose of adulterating meal, flour, or bread. conlary to A4t of Parliament, by which he was liable to a penalty not exceeding 101. nor less than 40a. The defendant pleadel—Ngt W. Read, jun. one of vita off.i.rs deposal, between flee and six o'clock on Saturday last, the 19th instant, he and Limbrick, by virtue of a warrant granted on information, searched the defen dant's premises, and in the bakehinise they found the stone jar than produced, containing sal amonme. which he had no doubt was for the purpose of adulterating meal, flour, or bread. The defendant stated that he was a biscuit-baker as well as a baker of bread, and that such biscuits could not be made without sal amoniac, but, on the contrary, it would split bread and prevent its rising. lo proof of which he produced some loaves of bread and biscuits, some of each having sal *maniac in them, and some not. Mr. Sergeant SELLow, on referring to the Act of Parliament, said, thathe saw no exemption in the Act in famine of biscuit oc fancy-bread bakers, the words of the Act being, " Any baker, in whose house, out-house, grounds, or possession shall be found any mixture for the purpose of adulterating meal, 1k or bread, shah, on onnviction, be liable to the penalty as'before-mentioned." The defendant was accordingly convicted in the mitigated penal- ty of forty shillings and costs. HORSE STEALIXO.—A roan who gnre his name JAN Jay, was brought up in the custody of Wm. Read, sea the head officer, charged on suspicion of stealing two horses, the property of some person or persons unknown. W. Rolfe deposed, he is a workman in the employof Mr. White, a nicker, Who keeps a slaughter-house for horses in Sharp's.alley, Cow-cross ; that morning he met the prisoner in Cow-cross with the two horses in his possession, making inquiry where them sou a slaughter-house for horses witness told him his muter kept one, and he asked the prisooer if he meant to sell those horses to be slaughtered • the prisoner said he did, and he should expect Al. for them, but they must be killed. Witness said six pounds was too much to give for them to be killed, but he thought they were too good to be killed, and desired the prisoner to go with him to his master's. Each mounted a horse, and they rode to Mr. White's. Mr. White deposed, that the prisoner offered him the hones for GI. to be killed, but ou es.unining the horses, he found they were too good to be killed; they were both gentle and perfectly sound, and well worth 301. They were cart horses, bath bays, with long tails and manes, and about 15 hands high ; one was a gelding, six years old, with four white feet and a blaze down its face; the other was an aged mare, with a star on her face, and appeared to be the dam of the gelding. Suspecting that the prisoner had come dis honestly by them, he sent for Mr. Read, the head officer, who took the prisoner into custody. The prisoner, on being examined, gave the following account of himself :-lle said he was serrar.t to Mrs. Wickham, a widow, living at Writtle, a village in Essex, about 10 miles distant from London ; that she keeps a farm of about 60 or 70 acres, and has six cart horses ; that she rant him to London to sell the horses to a slaughterer, in consequence of their breaking a child's leg. Ile left Wnttle about twelve o'clock the preceding day, and did not offer the horses for sale until the time he was apprehended. IVni. Read stated, that he searched the prisoner, and all the mo ney he had about him was three-pence, and he could not believe any person would send him such a distance with PO little money. Ile found a quantity of pewebrokers duplicates on him for articles pledged in Roinford, which made him believe he came from that neighbourhood; that the prisoner equivocated in all his accounts to him, and he believed the horses to be stolen. The prisoner was asked if he knew several persons in Writtle who were named, but he knew note of them. Ile was committed fur further examination next week, to give the officers an opportunity to make the proper inquiry ; to the mean time, the horses were sent to a livery stable to be kept. AIARV.I.E.BONNE. COUTERTEIT Mostew.—Within the last five weeks, the shop keepers of the parish of Mary-la-bonne have been suffering to a very considerable extent by the circulation of counterfeit sovereigns, half-sovereigns, crowns, &c. which have been struck from so good a die as to render it almost impossible for the nicest judge to dis corer them to be bad. So ingenious:) , have the manufacturers of base coin brought their nefarious uncle to perfection, that even the metal. when rung against the counter, Las a sound similar to that of the good money. In consequence of the titterers appearing to illatatit, the tradesmen have entered into a resolution to watch any suspicious persons; ar.d, through the exercise of this laudable plan, one of them was detected in the person of a very interesting female named Sarah Lee. It appeared from the evidence of Mr. Spenser, the Newsman of East -street, that a day , or two since the prisoner came into his shop, end asked Mrs. Spenser for some conversation cards, a pack of which was shown her ; having examined them, she looked at some other articlea of stationery, and made a trifing purchase, ten dering in payment a half-crown, which being shown to Mr. Spenser, he pronounced to be bad ; at this intimation the prisoner affected great surprise, and left the shop, promhing to return. Mr. Spenser followed her through sevetal streets, when she entered the shop of Mr. Ward, butcher, in High-street, and on her coolies out, he entered, and was shown shrif-crown, which she had paid for some beef; this was also a counterfeit ; he immediately ran out, and was observed by the prisoner, who instantly stooped, and appeared to be doing something to one of her patient ; he ap- proached her with .Mr. Ward. and said, " You must come with me ;" she anewered, " Well, I will." Mr. Spenser then picked up a paper, containing two other hod half-crowns, which she was endeavouring to couceal•witillierfeet ; she was taken into a public house, and horn thence testae watch -house, where she offered live shillings to be allowed to go away—not denying having passed the half-crowns, which she said were given h.r by a gentleman in Oxford-street. This was her defence ; and with the tears trickling down her foam she begged for mercy. she called her sister and another fe male to prove she gained her living by prostitution • and a gentle man had accompanied her to a house in Shepher d , stroet ch: the evening previous to the day of her capture, and had given her mo ney ; but what they could not say. Mr. PowEtt., the Solicitor for the Mint, in calling upon the Magistrate to commit the prisoner, observed, that the defence could not avail her anything, as she was charged with uttering certaip hase eoln, knowing it to be counterfeit ; and therefore it did not signify from whom she received it. Mr. Rawl.; x sox said, the fact of endeavouring to conceal the half-crowns was sufficient. Before he committed her, he required proof of the money being bad ; he therefore detected 11r. Powell to be sworn. Mr. PowEbt.—l must decline being sworn ; you have sufficient evidence as to that fact. Mr. RawbiliSON—Oh dear, no, Sir; we have no evidence at all to that point of the case. Mr. POWELL—Why observe the evidence of Spencer—" I found the half-crowns to be bad ;" and Wood also speaks in similar term,* of that passed on him. Mr. RAWLINSON—I am aware of that ; but yen must also be well aware, that es a committiug Magistrate, I am entitled to have distinct evider.ce to every point of the case, and cannot receive the declarations of witnesses as to discovering the utterer to be the proof of the money so uttered to be bid. 1 ‘ 1 •• POWELL—AIIsw me, Sir to say, that you have sufficient eviderce for the committal of this prisoner under the Act of Par- I hentent ; and I think it would be establishing a precedent as use. less as it is unnecessary, for me to briny evidence here of the fact of the money being bad, when other witnesses are here to prove it I at once. Mr. Raw xsosr—No, Sir; lam of cpinion that the course pursued in bringing up the evidence against this prisoner at the Sessions, should not be departed from here, and if you bring the proof I require there, you, Sir, shall bring it here ; because, it does not follow that the +administration of the law should be different in another Court from that from whence the felon is committed. Mr. POWELL—Why, Sir, the Grand Jury do not require any such proof, and I do think it unnecessary in the first stage of a case like this. Mr. 11.sw LI trsosr—Why, you might as well pronounce it to be unnecessary in the Bank cases, where evidence is adduced to speak to the notes being forged ; and I really cannot discover any distinc• tion in your case and that of a forged note. Mr. POWELL—I thought the distinction was wide. and hinted that no undue advantage would be taken of prisoners because the evidence was nut entered into so fully at the offices as at the Sea. *ions- Ms. RAWLINsox said, he thought that the prisoner should al. ways know the full extent of the case against him ; therefore lie did require that the Mint cases should be fully establi.thed before committal, not throwing open a door for the introduction of other evidence afterwards. Mr. POWELL said he really thought it would only be a repeti tion of evidence ; however, as it was persisted in, he would submit to be sworn, and would give the required proof. Ile was then sworn, and pronounced the half-croons to be coon. terfeit, and all from the same die. The prisoner was then committed for trial. She stated herself not to be married. UNION-IL A LI.. Yesterday morning • man of respectable appearance, of whose sanity there appeared to be mine doubt, preferred a most extract. dinars complaint aoinst several inn-keepers in Blackfrims-road, and the neighbourhood of adulterating their bete with love powders, and other combustible matters. The Magistrate asked what do you mean by love powder, and other combustible matters 7. ('Oniplainarit—They put cantharides and opium into their liquors,and I can prove it. The only proof the complainant offered was his own opinion. which did not satisfy the Magistrate, and be dismissed the com plaint. It was suggested by a publican yrewnt, that the person who brought forward such unfounded and utterly groundless charges, must have escaped out of Bedlam. SHIPPING INTELLIGENCE.
