Upon close questioning, the witness admitted ha was to present it for payment. a man named Taylor upon t h e se Witness continued—l opposed fictitious bills; and he was remanded eighteen months. Mr. Po LLOCK addressed the l'ourt. 'There was not the slightest pretence for making Mart a creditor for 5001: it was a species of fraud. That the bills were ate to fur 3lr. II art's accommodation, is a gross falsehood. Tire insolvent was the agent, the negociatom the vender of these fraudulent bills, and engaged in sending them into circulation, without the least probable expectation of ever bAng ableatiop, to pay a farthing. He (Mr. Pollock) would not say inure but leave it to the Court. Mr. h EAT ti replied in an ingenious speech. The Court considered both insolvent and creditor engaged in one teak, and that upon Hart's opposition it would act improperly in retnanding the insolvent, but earnestly wished some <Wm aeditor had opposed. l'inier the present circumstances, the whole appeared concerned in a ruinous affair : however, thc oposition must fail, and the insolvent be entitidd to the benefit of th e Act. POLICE. Roenrittrs aT SEIIIVANTS.—Two cases of robbery by see. lent', in both of which it is feared the oticuders will escape the pimishment they merit, through the want of proper care and ma nagement on the part of their employers to detect and bring theua to justice, occurred at this office ytaterday, before the Sitting Al derman, Sir It. Dkv a, Bart. Johm Shirley, Itheitintut at Messrs. Davenports, &es and china. men, Fleet.stretr, and one lierhernt, en old man, who keeps a glass and earthenware stall in M'hiteeross-street, were charged. the former, with rubbing his employers. and the latter, with me acting the property. knowing it to have been stolen. Property, it seems, had been missed frequently of late, and to detect the thief, a private marl: was put upon several articles. Two cut glass vinegar cruets, so marked, were found on Saturday cc. ;awed la sale at Finchtim's stall, who occasionally deals at Messrs. Davenport's for disfigured or defogged articles. Finchum at first said he had bought the cruets is question of a Jew in Petticoat lane; but subsequently, on some promises, confessed having pur chased them from the prisoner Shirley, who, on being taken into custody, and tiudinA himself likely to be searched, owe up three other similar cruets that he had in his pockets. A boy in the em ploy of Messrs. Iherenport saw bim also previously pull out another from his pockets, and put it away on a shelf. All the six cruets were . produced before the Magistrate, but untOrtuantsly the four seen i n the prisoner's passes ion were not marked ; and though the peosecuton had no doubt that they were their manufacture, they could not swear to them positively as their property; nor could they say they had not sold them. And with regard to the two found at ' , indium's, there was no proof, except that of the receiver, that they had ever been in the posses sion of Shirley. The Alderman, however, thought there was sufficient groupd of suspicion to warrant I • in 'emending the ptisoncra, that Messrs. Davenports might try if they could mend their ease against them. • • the hotel, the Swan with Two Neck" , Mr. Kingsford, who keel 1.111-lane, brought up his two porters, Jolts Lewis and wrJ /guava's, whom he had given in custody on suspicion of having stolen sonic wine; but as the evidence did not bring the case home • to the prisoners, they were necessarily discharged.

He took his choice of several, and desired the one he selected to be !sent to Cobb's, in Raker'is-row, where be said he held bhee • ebalse. He observed that he was only going to Kingston-upon-Thames, and should be back in the evening. lie wan of with the hoes' and chaise and was never seen either by Mr. Rates at Mr. Cobb, until Wednesday last, when the former met him so Ascot Heath Race Course, and gave hint in charge to two of the pentad, to whom he said, that he had sold the horse to pay debt, in order to avoid going to prison. He was then taken before Sir Richard Rank, in the police marquee, and committed to the !Middlesex House of Correction for anot her examination, the &hely lif any) having taken place in this county. The manner admitted having had the horse and gig, and offered to pay the owners their full demand fur each, but he denied that he had sold them, or that he ever said be had. The fact was, they were taken from him by a person to whom he owed money. Sir It. Minx ea was of opinion that this ease was exactly similar to that of the celebrated hlajor Semple, who having bleed • horse and gig for a day, sold it, and applied the money to his own use. This was held to be a felony. and he was transported. The prisoner was fully committed to Newgste for nisi. Hat N E CON:lint x.—The drivers of the hackney-coaches, New. 1,057 and 91, were summoned to answer the complaints oi Mr. Hesse, the solicitor to the binary-OH/Ice, at Somerset House, for refusing to take a fare when legally required to do so.

The waternien of the stand brought a pail. tut the horses did not drink one drop. Jarvis again drove away, and shortly after returned once more to the stand. Well," said the complailiant's servant, " are you come to water your horses now ?" " Yes, Spolicy, I ani," replies Jarvis, and drew his coach up to the side of the street, refusiag to stir from the spot. 'lts poor footman, after being exposed to a soaking rain for two hours, was obliged to return without a coach, and Mr. Hew was under the necessity awaking up 'mils for his friends. Both the coachmen declared that the story of the footman was all false.

Up to yesterday morning 177:rt:Tration was made in the prison regulations with respect to this Gentkman's case, which has been so rigorously enforced since the passing of the sentence upon him. In the course of the day the High Sheriff of the county (Florence Young, Esq.) came into the yard where Mr. O'Callaghan is con fined, accompanied by Mr. Walters, the brother of the Governor ; and observing that several individual* had called on Mr. Weal- highan on Saturday, asked the latter Gendeman whether it was not better that he should allow only a certain number of his friends to see him each day, and named three as the number. Mr. O'Cal. kaftan replied, that the Sheriff might, if he pleased, exclude his friends altogether; but, as far as regarded himself, he would enter into no regulation for excluding some end admitting others, I and th at he would have the visits of his friends unrestricted, otherwise he would not see any at all. The Sheriff then said, that his affair had made so much noise in the metropolis, that one half of the town would be running to see him from curiosity. Mr. O'Callaghan said, that he did not expect any Bitch thing. He understood, he said, that the prison regulations did not restrict persons placed in his situation from seeing all their friends during the proper hours, and then added, that the Sheriff might make any alteration he pleased. but he would again repeat that all hie friends should be admitted, or else none at all. The Sheriff then said, suppose we say six every day. Alr. O'Callaghan said, six or ten made no alteration in the ponciplb, he would see all who came, or noise. The Sheriff then mentioned eight. Mr. O'Cal laghan observed, that it might perhaps appear weak in him to count his imprisonment by the number of hours, but he, never theless, circumstanced as he was, felt every hour of it passing. and that his sentence condemned him to 72 hours of imprison— ment. 3Ni of which he was in solitary coefinement, and during only forty-eight hours of it he was allowed the privilege of seeing his friends, and lie thought that a limitation more than sufficiently severe, without being clogged with the additional restriction of only a certain number to visit hies each day. The Sheriff ap peared to be convinced by this observation, and turning round to Mr. IValters, the Governor's brother, said, that he withdrew the order. Shortly after the above eircumvtances had taken place, Mr. I Denison, 31. P. came into the prison, being met by a friend of Mr. O'Callaghan's. who asked him whether he had teen the Memorial of that gentleman, which had been presented to Mr. Hedger, and addre , se.l to the Visiting Justices of the gaol. Mr. Denison an. livered, that Mr. Hedger had made no communication to him on the sub,iect, and that he had no information respecting the ease, but what he had learned from public report; and it was what he hail seen stated on the subject that then induced him to come down to the prison. Mr. O'Callaghan's friend then explained the nature of the application which had been made, and added, that the prayer of it only amounted for a remission of that part of the sentence which restricted his allowance. Mr. Denison said, that he widerstood the prison regulations allowed every person in his situation to send for provision, if they did not take the county allowance ; but that he could not be allowed to provide for himself, and have the county allowance too. Mr. O'Callaghan's friend replied, that from the first, in consequence of what had fallen from the High Sheriff, Mr. O'Caliaghan had rehired the county allowance, and offered to provide fur himself; but that this was refused, arid he had since been testrieted to the county allowance of bread and water only. Mr. Denison then went to 31r. Walters, the brother of the Governor, and having spoken with him on the subject, gave orders that the prisoner should be allowed to provide himself such pro visions as lie pleased ; that he should be allowed pen, ink, and paper, and the privilege of sending for a Newspaper, if he thought proper, and also be allowed to set such friends as wished to see hint, between the two iron gratings ; that this order was to hold good until Friday next, when there would be a meeting of the Visiting Magistrates, and then such further orders would be given as they should think fit. Then, addressing himself to Mr. O'Cal laghan'a friend, he said. that he had not die power of ordering Mr. O'Callaghan wine, or any fermented liquors ; that such per mission, if required, should come from the Doctor.

(From the Oxftvd Herald of yeaterda_ y.) On Satarday an inquisition was taken by W. Macey, 800,. Co toner, at neuth lawn Lodge, in the Fe:este( Wychwood, us this county, OA the body of James MOM, assistant keeper to Lord Churchill, the Ranger of the Forest, who was found shot, and in • dying state, on Tuesday evening last, between nine and ten o'clock. in a copse called ilensgrove. Mr. Young, a farmer of the neighbourhood, deposed, that at the time above-mentioned he heard the report of a gun, and that immediately afterwayds a person called foe assistance. He hastened to the spot, and found the deceased lying on the. ground. and bleeding profusely from a wound in the left thigh. Ile Immediately went to Astall for assistant*. When he returned; he found Millin In the same situation, with his brother and two other persons by him. He then appeared sensible, called for wa ter, and said that he.had been shot by poachers, although he did not see them. Joseph Millin, the brother of the deceased, Lon! Churchill's keeper, deposed, that on the same evening he was going his rounds, when he heard the report of a gun, which appeared to come from liensgrove Co In going towards the spot he met with H. Pitts way rod W. .ewer. who were going the same way in consequence of having bald the report of the gun. They asked J. Millin dim had shot, he said he had not, but some one else hod. They said they heard a shat said the cry of murder, and from the voice they thought it was James 31illin. They pr oceeded onwards, and found the deceased as before desaibed. They tonic I him to South House Lodge, the. residence of Joseph his brother, where be ex pired about eleven the same evening. Since the death ofJames, his brother Joseph, the delmitmt, ex amined the spit whore deceased had been shot, and plainly disco tiered the place whence the gun had bees discharged, by the mark@ of powder on the leaves and branches of the trees, about ten yards from the lilacs where deceased tell. In a direct line was found a leaden bullet, which had ploughed up the ground, and was found, in the presence of deponent, buried therein. James could give no account of the parson or omens who shot him. Ali. Butt, surgeon, of Witney, proved that the wound was from a gun-shot In tbeinner part of the left thigh, which divided the femoral arter , y, and produced hemorrhage, which caused his death. Verdict-- • Wilful Murder against some person or perso un known." Two persons suspected of the murder were taken up and ex amined, but no evidence being adduced against them, they were discharged. It is conjectured that James was shot by mistake, as be had been only a Ghost time in the service of Lord Churchill, and dim the murderers imagined it was his brother, who has been very active in the detection of poachers. The deceased has left a wife and one child, and was a remarkably sober and steady man. - - hittlog. XL A terrible round : Matthewson hit down most severely ; Mom the best of it, though weak. 37.
