Ad the jewellery were presents to soe. ()crept the two plain rings. I received all Askew's let. inns that have been produced, at Cheltenham. About the tie;;,..n.og of August, Askew's disagreement with me began; it ea. *:bout jealousy. I received a gold watch from As. lees at Cheltenham about a fortnight before he had nit arrest ed. I seas arrested en Saturday. the 14th of August, for the mem s I had received fur him at Cheltenham, a hich was 511. At that :line he owed me 761. for wages. I paid the debt and costs into the bards of the Sheriff, which "'vented to OM Askew was at I 'belie:it:mu ut the time, and he turner! me out of the house ou the Is.ittioley. IA paper wax here banded to the v item, who said that oats tin agreement between her and the ptivmrer, st 'nest in England. .tnotior paper wen also given to her. She said it was a paper signed by Askew the day before she was turned away at Chelten ham by desire of her Attorney there. In this document the prisoner aeknos Raged to having received all the goods and bonnets sent to 5124. Perrot.l The s al ary he owed we has never brett paid to me by Askew or any one on Its account. On the Monday f returned to London and applied for my property with a witness, Mr. Idutollins,.who is here, but I have never got it. When I went to Cheltenham, I left my drawers locked, and left an inventory of write of the goods. (A paper was handed to the witness, which she said was the inventory written by Bertrand in Parltel It was whiten before 1 cane to London. When I coatd not get back any !emptily, I employed Mr. Iltibert, a professional gentleman. IV hen applied to Askew, he said, ~ 1 have no objection to give you s Lat is in the drawers, but I will not give you the furniture in the room. I will give yeti your chulies, a few stockings, and shifts, but the turniture is not yours." I applied to him a second time. llama wee wish me. It was shunt a fortnight or three weeks uner. Askew thew said he could notileliver sum thing without his Attorney, and did uOt deliver anything. In a week after, I saw a part of my property. 11r. Hubert brought me a pair of diamond tar-rings, some stocking*, and a few dresses; but no shifts. The ear.tings u ere in the inventory ; they arc worth dl. or 61. I was not present at the opening of my drawers. I described to Mr. Hu bert that he would find a letter from a Nobleman in the drawers. On the dlonday after I received these articles from Mr. Hubert, which was no Saturday, I made a complaint to the Justice; Mr. ileetrand went with me. The Magistrate decided my cause at the meond sitting. I was attended by a Counsel and Attorney, and so was Mr. Askew. I did not tell Hubert that was all my property that he hail brought. I have never got it since. I ant certain that 1 left the Bank notes with the Nobleman's letter, locked toi in the drawer. I gave Mr. Hubert a list of my property that was left at Askew's, as near as I could. The list was partly written by me ar.l partly by Bertrand.—( The list was then handed to the witness, who raid, " that is the list I gave Mr. Ilubert.") Crate-examined by Mr. Anocruts, fur the defence—What Nekletran wrote that letter ?—1 ant willing to tell my Lord, but no ma eht ; because he is a nobleman of high rank; and if I should give up his name he might lose his reputation. •My WOLFS' vs—Nay, his reputation cannot be affected by any suth t Mg. I should not consider my reputation injured by that. Witness-1 cannot give his elate. It might ruin him. 1 will tat my Lord. Mr. Anoxionne—No ; that wont do. I must and will have it. (Ir. Pnicni,s submitted to the Recorder, that the letter only having the initialise( this Nobleman, it amid not be necessary to have his name from the wittier*. • Me. Aoonenus, on the other side, contended that the posses. sines of the name was necessary for the prisoner's defence. The testes might not have been written by this, said Nobleman. As it was dwelt on so Louth by the prosecution, it ought to be proved what P. was alleged to be. 'IDE RECORDER concurred in Mr. Adolphus's view of this point, and observed, that for any thing they knew the Nobleman alit be in Court to disavow the letter. Mr. Ano nen what is his name ? Wi,nees-1 don't wish to tell his name. Armeellus-1 must have it. I The RECORDER-3161 Perrin, It cannot injure the reputation or any Nobleman to have written to you.

It wasa long way to go to it. It was somewhere about the Bar of Tensile, but I cannot nay curtly where, but it was a long way MI. through many streets and winetngs. 1 brought all these things with me trout Paris, but some of the things in the inventory were left in Paris with Bertrand, and thee - care some in Paris still. Bertrand, when he ante: over, brought me 29 slats, a black AA dress, and seine jewellery. lie brought a large gold chain, nhich 1 now have. I cannot Invitees all he brought.. lie gave me no inventory of the things he bt ought. I lived in Pelisse Nu. 4, Hue de Gracile, when the prisoner came over to engage me. (A letter was handed to tne witness. which she said was Bearand's wriung.) I think it MIS in my chest askew ers, but I have received a great many from hint. ( l'he witness was allowed to epee the letter, when she said. " Teat is Bertrand's writing, addressed to Mademoiselle aren't Behind, who is at As lutes. It was not in my drawer. Another paper was handed to who said. " That la Bertrand's hand-urning.") It Is a declaration hooded to Mr. Abram. alt attorney. I was near him when he wrote, but he did not du it by my directions. Ile did not toad it to me. Tl.e parer was written since 1 (Mae Irons Chelten ham. I was recominended to Hubert by the l'rench Comm', about a wallies after I saw Abram. 1 never mentioned the Udell frames to Abram. 1 have mentioned it too much for nie to have lust it. 2 !;::.c not wallotted the things to Mr. Abram or his clerk. Mr. Abeam was cosily employed to get the furniture of my bedrootn. I do nor recollect mentloeing the jewellery to him. I don't recollect tl.at 1 did, and I can't serer it. (A paper was handed to witness, who paid, " That is the intentor) I gave Hubert)." M. Bertrand lived at No. 11, Hue de Grencile, it. Paris, and was a pour. Ile was not a relation, but by order of Askew I did call hull my brother. He told me to call him so, on our journey to femiloo. Bertrand was cwt duo coming to England. There was a tali of leis cretins to Englatui. He was invited by Askew, in a letter which we have got. Askew told me to caU Bertrand brother, for the reputation of his house. I have been lidded its your country, and I only want justice. Ile gave me no reason on the journey, but afterwards desired me to call Bertrand brother for the 'potation of his house. I tsever called Bertrand brother at fends, but I hare dote so in London, at the desire of Askew. In Ballater's shop, at Paris, prisoner said lie wished to make me , aced Bertrand also. I had the billets de banque in my pus- P orn at the beginning of May. Bertrand brought over arty things with his own, in his bus, which had a lock to it. It tetod in my bed-roan). There were two locks to the box, And I had botti Samoa! gave me the billets de henget) in my bed-chamber. Miss I 1 Actsom saw them one morning, and Mr. Bertrand clinic into the room, and scolded me for chewing them. This sae about a mouth before I went to Chelteuhan). Ile had French and English geld, and never borrowed money front me, or any one else, to my know. lodge. lie had some billets d'ordrebesides, in his possession. Ber trand went to my drawers ac he pleased. Be had Other billets de blliquein 1133 possession I think, but I cannot swear it. I don't re coiled taking an account of the billets de banque when Bertrand gave them to toe. lie used so slap is a warehouse in the wilt. owe 's batter when first he came to England. Ile removed from there abnut three weeks before I went to Cheltenham to Mr. Eio-alfoot's, its Berwick-street; Mts. Askew took the lodgings' tie him. I used to send him little things jinn Askew's house, when be gave me the money for it, by Askew's permission. Mr. Bortrand 1:1‘ Askew's, It const.Nuelice of a quartet between *ism ; but to please me he let me send victuals to Bertra n d, e... 1 he used to send to Bertrand after I was gone to Cheltenham. He wrote so In toe. and told me so too. When I returned from Cheltenham 1 went to lodge at Mrs. Broadfoot's. I kept the billets is Lemma in nil drawers, because, when he went to a furnished laslgnag lie did nut thiek them sake with Eini. Bertrand asked tote on the Saturday before I went to Cheltenham fur the billets de bersque, and I said I would bring them on the Sondey ; but I set ton early in the morning to take them to bin). I was anxious not to go to Cheltenham, and on the Saturday night I had not made up my mind to tro. Askew lives at No. &I, in Oxford-street, near the Pantheon; I left no direction with Bertrand to go for the billets de barque when I went to Citeltenham. I did not take any memorandum of the billets ; it is not our custom in France to do so. I took live or six pair of stockings to Cheltenham ; Askew told me not to take much with me, because if 1 did not like it I should come back. I never wrote to Askew far my clothes ; I was afraid to give niv key because of the jewellery and the money, hut I wrote to him iron t . heitenliten for some of the articles from his Mop. I cannot say whether any one everssw me with the jewellery on; but probably many may remember it, for I wore It often. I never were the diamonds in the shrew-room, because I would not dress as a lady. Miss Bodkin has seen sonic of my jewellery ; she has not seen it all, because same of it came over with Bertrand. I have a coral neeklece, which I never Raid was amongst the things stolen. I never told :In. Ilroadfoet that I was married to Ber trand, but she is a woman ready to swear that, because she is paid for it, end I know it; a man told mew who arrested us fur the lodging. My attorney has been kind enough to pay the rent, be cause Askew has taken my a l l . The day the prisoner was taken Mrs. Broadfoot's boy said eeerything against the prisoner, and to day he is brought to swear for biro. The man in possession told me that Mrs. Ilmsdfoot and her son had its. a-day, net' a coach to come to the Court in. 31rs. Broadfoot never asked for the rent till the prisoner was arrested. 1 never told Mrs. Broadfoot that I had 151. at Askew's, with which I would pay her. I told her I would pay her all in November, when I could get my things nail money from Askew's, and I said I had furniture there that had cost inc 151. I never said to Mrs. nroadfoot I will have my revenge of Lim—l will hang hint. Ile has robbed me, but it is nut my wish to bang him. Mrs. Hewitt:tot did not say—" stop, be is nut tried yet." I changed 200 francs for Bertrand at No. 21, St. James's- street. I never told a Mr. Unit that Bertrand had brought over only 2.000 francs. which be had changed in Regent-street. I never told Cud., nor did Itertrand in my hearing, that the produce of these 2,000 francs or 200 had been deposited in my drawer. I changed the 200 francs about three weeks ago. Mr. Alio. ru m 5--W hat made Askew and Bertrand quarrel ? Wituess—lt was jealousy of Bertrand on account of Askew thinking I liked hint. On one Sunday morning went into Mr. Askew it room, when he was in bed, and I said, cons* Mr. Askew, here is a tine Sunday morning, why don't you get up, and let us have a walk. lie sai:l, go for my clothes, and I will get up. I went and fetthed his clothes and when I brought Ithern to him, lie took hold of my hand, and kissed it, and endeavoured to pull me to Dim. When I went out of the room, 1 told the maid servant l i that I would never go again into Mr. Askew's bedchamber without her. Askew has turned his wife out of doors. on purpose to get me for hieeeife, RIMt quarrelled with Bertrand, because he was my friend, and therefore he was jealous of hint. That was the only reason ter his smiling Bertrand away. Re-examined—l said I heal lost Ili:. by not getting the fund. lure. (A paper was handed to the witness, who said , that is the receipt cat the prisoner, for the goods b ought of Mot. A letter nut signed was given to the witness. it was an acknowledgment from Askew for the 65/. paid by witness at Cheltenham. She said that letter was brought by the prisoner'e boy, and was his writing. A runiber of other letter were given to the *anew, which she said were in Askew's writing.) I left no key . when I went to l'heltenham with Bertrand. lam certain the jewellery and billets de barque were left in my drawers when I went to Cheltenham. Mr. Abram, whom 1 fleet employed as my Attor ney, never got me any thing, and I then employed Mr. Hubert. I called the Russian gentleman Nublenian, because I had hoard him called his Excellency. The reason the conversation took place on our journey form Paris about Bertrand was, because Askew wished to be very civil and kind, to me, and I told bite you are a ninyried man, and lam engaged to Bertrand. And after I told him, be wished me to call Bertrand my brother. I always ex pected Bertram! would come over to England fur to see me. A variety of papers were here put in by Alr. Phillips. Amongst them were the three letters which be had read in his opening ad. dress. There were also three other letters, tinder the respective dates of the 7th of July, the 11th of July, and the 11th of August, together with an agreement that had been executed last May, be. tweets the Prosecetrix and the prisoner; one of the articles of which was, to raise her salary to 40110 francs annually Mr. 11"aus, the ntanaging clerk to the Attorney who drew up the agreement, and who was a subscribing *loess. was put into the No:, and examined by Mr. rumbles, as to the fact of the instrument in question having been drawn at the iestance of both the partiies to it. ADO Lentos cross-examined the witness as to several tech. nical points with regard to the agreement of no interest, and it was fteerwards nail by the Clerk. ft was clued the 17th Mae, 1024, and stated to be an agreement between James Askew aed Elizabeth Virginia l'etot, by which the former utuiertook to allow the latter a salary of &WO francs annually, together with hoard and lodging, arid 4s. tid. • week for washing; soil if lie should dispose of his business purchaser should be bolted to do the saute, and more_ over if :Redline Perrot should at any time wish to enter into part. neeJtip with James Askew ha would agree to admit her. The agreement was to continue in force fer insert years. Mr. Pitt eters, before he asked fur the letters to be read, begged of the Court to bear in mind that they were all written subsequent to the prosecutrix going to Cheltenham. The letters related prin. cipally to business. In one of Ahem, however, the writer says that he should be glad to see Mr. Bertraed again at his house. " for I wish to du any tiling that will make you happy." In another he s. ys, " Vote cannot think that I nor angry with you withuat a cause—you are a misled woman-1 ant constantly tormented, be. cause every thing I propose to you to do is counteracted by one who ought to work fur his bread. That is all the punielituent that I wish biro. Vou are led by one who does not possess one half of your talents." In another place he says, "Itis a pity that a titan at Mr. Bertrand's Care of life should be Idling his tune away." (A paper, dated March 24, 1824, was also put in and read. It was signed Jetties Askew, and was a receipt for 154 paid to bin, by Madame Perrot fur bedstead, blankets, sheets, counterpane, wash hand-stund, and other furniture that he had sold to her.) The pnweezutrix had continued in the witness box during the time these documents were real. At the conclusion of them e Mr. ADOLPIIue put in a number of letters and papers into her hands, and asked whose writing particular parts of them was. 11 - th only ono or two exceptions ehe replied that the writing au I•e-a. . . . .... The letter put in now the witness could no; identify as Bertrand's hantl.wiiting. Victor Bertrand examined.—Did not speak English well ; came here in the cud of April last.

Mademoiselle Perrot did not see him write it.. It weswritteu in a pastry.cook's near Clement's Inn ; he took it to Abraham's. Can't say Mademoiselle Perrot was there. Came here in the end of April, nut in March. Though 1w lost so much property he 110t1 never written ar y note on them, or made any memorandum of than. It was not the custom in France. They were the notes of the Bank of France; supposed it was the Bank of the Government of France; knew of no other. Did not know if there were two Banks; never heard any thing about it. 'rho bills he had were like that now handed to hint (1,090 franca bill); he had had HO billets de bauque, and never remarked them. Ile was a grocer at Paris; left the grocery concern in hands when be came here. No servant of Isis conducted it now; he left it al together when he came over here. Ile made a memorandum or inveutory of bladentoietile Perrot's things, jewelimy, bagucs, &c. Would be glad to be examined by sonic person who knew French, for he could not well explain. Can't recollect that he counted these notes. lie gave her them altogetLer ; he gave them to her in her bed.rootn. eihe mimed the drawers, and he supposed she put them in, but don't recollect which drawer. Can't say if there was a strong box in her room. Yes. the.-e was a box. One of the letters the witness had acknowledged to be written by him.

I claimed above 701. for wages, and creed there were urea French bank bills of IWO francs each. This Wirt not the first occasion. On the fitet occasion I asked fir a settlement and for the property. He said. whatever property she had was in her own drawer. He said he had much to complain of; he had, he said, evidence to prove her a very hail woman, and If he knew him better he would produce those documents. I raid, if you can produce one it will be more satisfactory to me. !Rade mobelle Perrot bad described diet document as being in her chest of drewers. Ile then went up stairs, and produced' a let. ten. I rend the letter two or three times. On reading it, lie said he had a translation of it; hut I already understood the original in French. I said it was extraordinary he *hosed be in possession of a confidential letter. I wished to know how he gut it. He said it was of no consequence bow he had obtained it, but he had got it. 31adenioiselle Perrot had described it as a letter from a French Nobleman. lle identified the letter. I read the transladon, which corresponded with the letter in sense; could not front the letter say whether it was from a foreign Noble. man. The first meeting nas on the 4th, the second on the Tues day after, the 7th. Had seen 3lattentoiselle Perrot. and she gave me the inventory-now recollects she gave it me at the first, and I exhibited it to the prisoner. (In the second interview I took 31ademoisi Ile Perrot with me, and requesed him to ltay her waents and deliver the property in the chest of drawete; I said if lie did so I wool l advise: her to give tip the agreement between them to be esecelled. The prisoner said she had :alrtwdy broke it, and said further he should do nothing without consulting his solicitor; begged to see him agnin, when he flied the next day to go ; did not go because of an intimatitra from 31aslemoiselle Pcrrue; went on Saturday after; it was in the morning. in the City, and he desired me to call at four in order to give up the properly. I requested that 31iss Perrot might also be present to identify her property ; he strongly objected to it ; I urged it several times, but he still ob jected, but said, Old if else would write an order and give the key. the property should be delivered to mite. Ile had certainly stipulated that he should bring tile order. I wrote the order row produced. Hiss Perrot Menu! It. The order specified " all the property be longing to me." Mr. Askew shewal me the room, and when I went to open the drawers he went down stairs, leaving there two ladies and a gentletr.u. The things found in the drawers did not correspond with the inventory; there were sane articles did-- wearing 4ppiteel. T drew up an inventory, here it is; 1 found c pelt of diamond earnings (here they were produced), but found no other artede of jewellery whatever. I also found in the drawers another inventory in French. Miss Perrot had given me another iuventury. I searched fur the billets de hanque, and did net find them; did not find the confidential letter which Hiss l'errot dud described. f'ross-examined by Mr. Ariotentes—Had seen Askew twice before going to ,Idlingtoa and Gregory, attorneys for the prisoner; had not then opened the drawers ; demanded verbally the articles in the inventory. The French Consul had written to me ; and though I went to demand her property, Askew gave we the ousel. dentist letter now produced ; it was dated Palermo. Here an argument arose as to whether this letter should be read, I'he .1 e I4 ruled it should not be read; and Mr. Aims, PII es begged the Court to take a note of his having I tendered die nose to be read. it'itness-1 proposed at the third interview that the agreement ' should be given up. The letter was one which it might he dis agreeable to disclose. The twonymeue letter contained the follow. ing words:--" Monsieur the grocer; the child with light eyes de. mends the assistance of you and your sister.-Rue de (Itchy." She was very much vexed at this paper being sent. The first time I went to a Justice was ten days atter the receipt of this letter; but Went about a week before to Mr. l'onante It was before I received the property of 31iss Pe.-nt. The Magistrate. on the I eth, allowed the prisoner to go at large on hls own recognizance. I attended, Three witnesses were then called by 11r. Partin es, whose names were on the back of the Indictment, but they were not owe. sidered necessary to be examined. He then acquainted the Court that wan the conclusion of the case fur the prosecution. The Het:vanes said that it would be as well, to save time, that he should explain to the Jury that in this stage they might very properly take into their consideration, whether the prisoner had possessed himself of this property in consequence of there being an account between them, and much ill.will and contention, without intending to do any thing more. Although such an action would be very Improper, it would. If so, make u material difference in the case. If they should think that the prisoner had detained these things under colour of a suppotted right-and as such it was a mere detention unlawfully, and no felony- then it would do away with the felonious intent, and If so dicer would be an end of the case. If such was their opinion they might consult together and express It now, and it would be unneceseary the case should go on ; but if they should think differently, then it would be necessary the case should be heard out, and the eouneel on the other bide proceed with the defence. The Jury turned round to consult, and the prisoner said that it was his wish the case should go on. 3lr. A Doe rues recommended him to attend to the suggestion and direction of the Learned Judge. The Jury consulted together about 16 minutes, and then re. sullied their seats. The RECORDER asked them if they wished to hear further' evi dence, or had they made tip their minds? The Foreman stated that they were agreed on their verdict, and that he was guilty of unlawfully detaining the property of the pro. seeutrix. They could nut make up their winds that he was gully of a felony premeditatedly. The Juoue acquainted the Foreman of the Jury drat they could not deliver in, no could he receive, such a verdict. They must pro. noutiee him guilty of the felony, or not gritty of it. The Jury begged to know if an acquittal would now deprive the proseeutrix of her right to recover due property hereafter by civil process at ('amnion Law ? The J eDGE-Certaitly not. You may now acquit him, and he will be open to an action. If you think lie did not feloniously take and detain, you must acquit the prisoner. Gentlemen, is ouch your verdict? A Juror—Then the acquittal it is understood, may be the foundation of civil process 'r The JUDGE—Your acquittal certainly does not bar this person bringing nn action of trot cr. The Verdict was then taken—Not Guilty. Mr. Lawns then said to the prisoner-Mr. Askew, your ease has not been heard, and I advise you to bring an indictment against these parties for perjury and conspiracy. Mr. Pitit.i.res—lle will do well to abstain. At present all that ears be said of him is, that lie is a lucky man. Mr. 11.awEs--Then I will pledge myself to prosecute them; end for that purpose 1 beg your Lordship will impound the documents now in (:curt as important to our case. TheJ enur —I shall certainly not impound these documents. nor do I think, from the view which the country has taken of the facts disclosed, that the prisener'a Counsel can think it will favour the instituting any ulterior proceedings. Mr. Lawns—You stopped this cause in tho middle of it, to el. elude important evidence, and now you refuse to impound those documents, in order to clear up the man's character. The Rteo DE a—l shall not r:op to argue with you now. I have experienced enough of interruptions already to-day. I hope the Court will be treated with respect, or, if it is not, I know my duty, and shall enforce it, although I should be sorry to do it by means of anything unpleasant. The R ECOII pen asked if there was any other charge against the prisoner, who by this time had been removed from the bar ; being answered in the negative, he directed that he should be discharged forthwith. LICENSING IN THE COUNTY OF SURREY. On Tuesday last the Sessions House in Horsemonger-lana was crowded with persons who applied to the Ilench of Magistrates for licences to retail beer, &c. &c. in various parts of the County. At a little after ten o'clock sixteen Magistrates wete in the great room wo the same doer with the Court, and TIIOIIIAS Lim, It was elected Chairman. There were thirty-six applicants for licences, besides those whose licences were suspended on the last day. A great deal of lenity was abewn by Magistrates in the latter cases, there not being a single instance of loss of licence though sonic CAWS were postponed till the adjournment day. The 'Magistrates have set their faces against granting licences to individuals unless the fact of occupancy is *hewn, This is to stop the mule of victualling adventurers. At the last licensing day, an applicant was told that his license was granted. Ile returned his warmest thanks, and said he should remember tha kindness of the Magistrates to his last breath. " les," .aid the Cam IMAX, • but we wish for some cakes pro mise; we wish that you will preserve good order sod good boars." " Oh, certainly," replied the applicant, " aud what's more, I'll promise the same for the gentleman who succeeds me." "Oh, then probably," said the i:itatitst•ts, "you intend to sell the house ?" Yes. your Worship," replied the publican, smiling, " and I have. a purchaser ready outside." " Very well," exclaimed the CHM n Thug, " you may go to him as soon as you please and sell hint the house, but well take care that you shan't sell hint the licence." The pen was immediately drawn across the unfortunate April canes name, and his dealings in public-houses, except under the lOW. is completely at an raid. The applicroion of the proprietors of Vauxhall Gardens (for a public-house licence is indispensihle even in the ease of this fashion able place of amuse,nent) gore rise to some conversation of an inte resting nature, and various improvements were suggested by a Rev. Magistrate, in order to improve the morality of the Gardens. The licence was granted without any condition, except, we be lieve, that of fighting up the various recesses, and making satis factory regulation< with respect to the watchmen stationed in the Ifao ttepiented parts of the Gardens. We understand that when it townie' necessary to apply for the music licence for the Gardens, the subject of admitting up to a stated hour, and other alterations, will form topics of discussion. After the suspended licenees were disposed of., the new uppliea tions wore immediately entered upon. Eleven of the mast eligible houses were thee declared to be licensed ; of course there were twenty-tire disappointed faces in the Lull. Moat of the utisuceese- ' ful candidates watt away without murmuring, but there was one who had made up his mind upon getting a licence, ant proved It. Ilk house certainly stood well, but then it was known to the Ma gistentesthat tic had kept other houses accessible to the public of both sexes, although tan rewiring licences. Upon learning that their Worships had rejected his application, hs called out, "Justice ! What—Justice in Surrey ! Why a man might as well expat to Lind a boson of cold .174t14 In li-11." roucz. NsION-1101!SE. Ban NOTZII.—Mr. Brown, the City Marshal, stated to the Lord Mayor that it ier, eetiessary to rut the tradesmen of the me tropolis on their guard, by a public statement against a set of fel lows who had passed a great number of fire and one pound country notes, no longer or any use. They were the old rotes from the " Weald of Kent" bank, which had failed several years ago. They were dated Cranbrook, 11 1 11, but the dries were altqeif to 1823. They were drawn by Mes.rs. .irgles, Bishop, Brenehley, and Bishop. As they were made payable on n very respectable house in tuwn, they were passed with much facility in great numbers. G1'11,1)11A1.1. Yesterday ennolly and ll" , ratf. the hackney coachmen who were charged on Tuesday with violating a deaf mid dumb woman in a coach, were brought up thr re-examination. It appeared that the woman's character was of such a nature rx to put an end to the ca pital (eruct ; but the 31 agibtlatc committed the prisoners till they found bail fur the assault. HA TTON-GAR I) EN. BHUTALI. All9AULT.—Yesterday, Prier Chnseest, a tall athletic Irishman, was brought up front Saffron-hill watchhouse, charged with a brutal assault on his wife. It appearei in evOlence. that, about two o'clock yesterday morn ing, the reighbourhood of We-a-street, Saffron-hill, was alarmed by screams of" Murder !" in the house of the prisoner. The watch. man, with the constable of the night, broke into the prisoner's apartments, and there found the rite lying on the floor dreadfully beaten, with blood flowing from her mouth. They tack the pro. inter to the watchhouse; there he gave bail for his appearance at the office, and returned home, after promising that be would vales your to make amends to his wife for his c.)nduct, and procure sur gical relief the her. On his return home, hairnet, he turned her and her infant out of doors in a state nudity, in a torrent of rain, where they might hare perished but for the humane aceation of the constable of the tight and fla,nley the street-keeper. The wife would not tome forward this day to support the charge. The prisoner, in his defence, stated, that the ruse of his secued outrage on his wife was occasioned by the treatment he himself re ceived, as he was tlr a to the watcbhouse stark naked, withaut shirt, shoe, or stocking. The watchmen explained this circitmstance by stating, that they could actually find nothing to put on hint. 'flue Magistrate expresstd his regret that the forgiving temper of the wile prevented his being unable to punish the ruffian, but thought it likely that the parish would take cognizance of the ease. M .1111.110ROVG H. ST R %ET. Yesterday Mr. Badger, a tailor, residing in Cirencester.plecr, New.roatl, applied to know how he should proceed to recover the amount of a 101. piece of paper, which he then held in his hand. (laving occrsion (%lr. Badger said) to go to the town of ()unstable upon some business, a few days ago ' he unfortunately happened to be detained there on the last Fitir.day. Be was walking about the fair, amusing himself, when he also unfortunately happened to meet a young man of his acquaintance, and while they were in con. verudion, a very respectable-looking man came up, and addressing his friend as if he knew asked him if he could gee him change for a IN. note. His friend said he could not, that he had not so much about him i upon which Mr. Badger, wishing to ob. lige a friend of his friend's, as he thought, offered to change the note, and accordingly took 10 sovereigns out of his pocket, and handed them to the stranger, saying, that he was glad he had it in his power to accommodaie hint, and received the note now pro duced in return. But on its being presented for payment at the banking.house of Messrs. Masterman and Co. the party presenting it was informed that the note was not worth a pin. The note was issued by what was called the Weald of Kent Bank, the firm of which was Argles, Bishop, Brcnchly, and Bishop, but long since defunct. _ _ The Magistrate said, he had better try and trace out the man, and ask him quietly to change the note; and if he refused, he might, without much ceremony, have hint taken before a Magis trate, to hear, at all events, what and who he was. Mr. Badger, said, he thought it not unlikely that he might meet with him again, as he understood he was in the habit of freqttent ing fain about he country ; and whenever he met him, he should certainly seize him. LAM DETHSTREET. Yesterday John B;;;;;;1;en;.-inActi;ii; for pugilistic fame, who, a short time sirs challenged Langan, applied to the Sitting Magistrate. Sir DANIEL. IA Ids. for a warrant to apprehend a flexion who he said had committed a gross and violent assault on his person. Drown said, that en last Monday week a Constable residing in the parish of Devon, in Essex, had grovels assaulted him, by sink. ing him several thr.cs with his staff, and drove in three of his ribs. [Here he shewed his arm, which appeared much swollen, and which he had in a slaw.] The next usy be applied to the Hey. Mr. TOTTEN, a Magistrate of the County, for a warrant; but that gentleman referred him to :dr. Ji.; OD, another Magistrate, but from neither could he obtain a warrant.

Sir DANIS L asked what profession that was. Brown—The prire.riN', your Worship. I sent Langan, the Irish Champion, a for mal challenge, thvaigh a sporting journal, but have not yet received an answer from him.
