On the 3d of August it hid not a spot upon it. Could this be the name dog that was lost ? He should prove also that the dog was in beautiful condition at this time ; that it had no distemper: could this be the same dog, shish was represented as just recovering from the distemper? NV ich respect to the man who sold the dog, he should prove that Richard Hill said to Miss Kidney that he knew him very well, and that his brother was groom to Lord Ashbumham. It is +mid, in aggravation of this rase, that Miss Kidney sent for a wswerable. She acted pru dently in so doing. She thought u an attempt had already been matle by House to take away the dog by force, he might repeat it. She sent accordingly for a constable, as the most certain means of keeping the peace. He should now advert to another point. When House came for his dog he represented it as being the property of his master, Mr. Mitchell(' leman of very great respectability, said Mr. Searlett, and whom I the pleasure of intimately knowing), and that he (House) came to claim the dog on his be half. Again, his description of the dog to Miss Kidney was very curious. He said tire tail was entirely crushed off, except a small piece of skin. Resides all this, when the matter was Mime the Magistrate, if It had been settled that the dog was the property. of House, she would undoubtedly have given it up to him. She had no wish to keep it wrongfully. It was a favourite certainly, but it was trot ber companion —she was not in love with it. 1 Alias Tracy, a young lady apparently about In, was called, and examined by Mr. SCARLZTT-1 know Miss Kidney, I wan on a visit to her when the dog was offered for sale; Richard Hill intro duced the man, and said he had known him for many yesrs; the dig was very young, coite a puppy , he hod two very light spots, L but nodark ones; be was white all over ; at a short distance be appeared perfectly white. He was not fit to run atter a carriage; he way in good condition. We went down into the yard to examine him, and I induced Miss Kidney to buy him, because he had such a beautiful white nose; if I had not seen him again till December.

Mr. Spagrtioletti.—l am acquainted with Miss Kidney. 1 wan sent down to see the dog after it was purchase/ ; there were several large spots ; it appeared to have been distentpeted ; the hair was off in places, and it had all the marks of the distemper. Mr. Mitchell came, and said the dog was not his, but his servants; the dog had a large dark spot behind ; it appeared to be three or four months old. Mr. Hunt —I am a constable. I was sent for by Miss Kid ney. House said the dog was the property of his master, Mr. Mitchell. and he claimed it on his account. Cross.examined by 31r.

He said that from the description House gave of his dog, this could not be the same. He did not say this doubtfully. Mr. Coststox SERGEANT replied upon the evidence for the defence very acutely and at considerable length. The LOAD CHIEF JUSTICE was proceeding to sum up. when the Foreman of the Jury, addressing his Lordship, maid, they would spare his Lordship that trouble, as they had all made up their minds.

Mr. LIAR wwri.z. applied for the usual license to this placed amusement in the name of Messrs.

Mr. Rancor said he was not aware that the proprietors were differently situated as to the time of closing their bar, to any other publican.

Jos. Writ;/81 and Caro. Jackson. two of the officers of the Men dicity Society, were indicted for assaulting and falsely imprisoning, for the space of eighteen hours, James Grant, and Ellen his wife. Wright appeared to take his trial, but a certificate of illness, as ampected Jackson, was put in, and his recogaizances were conse. quently ordered to be respited. An application was made for the defence that the trial of Wright might be postponed till Jackson was able to attend, but as Mr. PHI Litre, for the prosecution, re fried to consent to such arrangement, the trial was oodered to peeeled. all.. Niece.les, in stating the case, observed, that it was one of considerable interest and importanoe. His client was a poor and humble man, but, although poor and humble, had a claim to the protection of the law against the outrages of those who were better circumstanced than himself. The defendants had represented that their conduct had been in react accordance Witt. the instructions of the Managers of the Society of which they were agents, but he could nel, believe such was the can ; if, however, it were so, lie could only say that the Society was a disgrace and discredit to the metropolis. The prosecutor had been supplied with the means of conducting the present trial by the joint contributions of a number of respectable individuals who witneseed the conduct of these offi cers, and who would now come forward to speak to its impropriety. The Learned Counsel proceeded to state the facts of the case, to sustain which be called the following witnesses:— James ()rant, the prosecutor. sworn—l ant a tailor by trade, and ansilso a private in the East Middlesex Militia. On the 19th May I was passing with my wife and two small children (I carrying one and she the other), through Piccadilly, when my attention was attracted by a very grand equipage, which was standing at the door of al r. Hales, a stationer living next door to the Egyptian Gall. 1 was told by the persona who were collected amend, that it was the Marchioness of Londonderry's carriage, and from a feeling of eseiesity I resolved to wait till her Ladyship re-entered her car- Soon after I saw her come out of Mr. Hales's shop, and as the was entering the carriage, • tall man, shabbily dressed in black, came up to her and asked charity. One of the attendants pushed him aside, and as the carriage was driving off, a person came up and took this man into custody, but after carrying him a few yards, let hint go, and then, with the defendant, Jackson came up to my wife, and began to drag her away. I inquired what they were going to do with her ? and Wright replied, " We'll have you too," and then leaving their hold of my wife, they seized hold of me, and commenced dragging me along in a most violent manner. They tore my coat to ribands, knocked off my hat, and after that kept besting me over the head and shoulders, Wright with a thick stick, and the ether with his staff. 1 still had my child in my right arm, and one of the blows happening to hit him, I lost all patience, and letting down the child, hit Wright with my fist in the mouth, and bled him. After this they redoubled their violence, notwithstanding that the crowd kept calling " shame" upon them, and one man in particular, who was on horseback, told them that they ought to take me before a Magistrate if I had been doing anything amiss, and not to use me in that manner ; to which %Fright replied, that he should use me as he liked. and calling the man who interfered a vagabond, and other opprobrious names, said that if he did not go away, he would pull him off his horse, and lock him up in the watchhause also. and wife were finally dragged to St. James's watchhouse, and there locked up in separate black-holes till the following morning, when we were con. ',eyed to Marlborough-street Office. On our way there, Wright took me into a public-house, and gave me some bread and cheese and beer, and told me to acknowledge myself is' fault when before the Magistrate, and that it would then not go so hard against me. I promised so to do. On being brought before the Magistrate, a charge of vagrancy was preferred against me, but was dismissed; and I was then charged with ;assaulting Wright, and on this' charge was ordered to find bail, which being unable to do, I was sent to prison, where I had lain five weeks, when Mr. Hale kindly consented to bail me. While I was imprison, Wright called several times on me, and wanted to persuade me to write a Icier to the managers of the So ciety, acknowledging that I had been guilty of the act of begging charged against me, telling me that if 1 so did, nothing further should be done to me. I told him I would take his advice, but I never did do it, nor did I at the time mean to do it.

The Learned Counsel here referigei to some particulars which the Mendicity Society had supplied him whit; and from the man's answers to the questions thereon wounded. it appeared that the Society had long possessed a most correct knowledge of his name, his place ofhativity, and theresidsoces which he had occupied since his return, some few years back, from Martinique. It also ap peared Mat sometime back he applied to the Society for relief, and received from-them it basin of soup sod at:pence. • Ellen Grant, the wife of the prosecutor, gave an account of the of conduct, similar to that given by her husband.

There was a tall man in the crow who asked charity but was pushed aside by one of her Ladyship's attendants. I did not see either of the complainants ask charity, and I was standing a such a situation that 1 must have seen ahem had they so done. Just as the carriage drove off 'Weight came up and seized hold of Grant's wife. Grant said something to hint but what I could not hear, and immediately after Wright turned round, and seising hold of him, commenced beating him with his staff over the head and shoulders. The other officer also struck him with his staff. One of the blows fell upon the arm, by which Grant was support , ing his child, and caused him to let it down, and it was then, and pot till then, that he struck the officer. By this time the officers had dragged the man some distance, and as I did not leave the shop door, I could only perccise that the officers continued strik ing at him. Cross-examined.—l was examined as a witness before the Grand Jury. Mr. Nathaniel Hales corroborated the lastwitness, and as he ac companied the parties to the watch-house was able, in addition. to confirm the account given by the complainant and his wife, as to the indignation expressed by the mob, and the insolence of the officers towards a person on horseback, who remot.trated against their harshness.

Mr. A Knit E ws, far the defendant, catorneered with explaining the motives which -had ind u red the Society to stip forward to give their ' servant the means of defence. The dutieshe had to perform were of an arduoos meanie, as it was not to be tarred that the sturdy beggar wuuJd submit to the apprehension his person, and the exposure of his artifices, without a violent struggle t . and it there.' fore became the more jecumbent on the Society to protect their servant to the utmost while he might be engaged in' the due discharge of his ditty ; but if on the contrary he abused the power intrusted to him there was no wish on the part of the Society to screen hint from punishment. In the present inns:toe, the object of the Society was the eheitine the truth, and with this view they supplied him with the means of defence ; but it must not therefore be supposed that they were de. tennioad on protecting him triton all itsaardn, or that they would eontinue him in their employ if the result of the proceedings of to day atioithi afford a reasonable conviction that he hal wantonly end wilfully bees guilty of an act of oppression. With respect to the *Heard act of imprisonment, the answer was. that by the new Act of Parliament it was lawful to take into custody any persons who might befoand iirandering about with Main to commit an act of vagrancy. The question of intent was one which required refer. ence to past habits, and was one there/ere which could not always be proved on the instant, a circumstance which accounts for the prieonea not being taken before a magistrate until the following marmite. Reside*. he was given to understand that the magisteatee of the °flint in qiiestion never attended tcleinninfrated cases of this kind' at the evening m that ing, could.doubt hi s• As respecter; the latent, who, after iin Nearingthe evidence niece by (heei• intent ?• Who-was there that did not see t t the carrying of the children in their anus, and pladag them en in a situation so as to attest notice, was all meant to extort my ? And although it might he true that they did not ask shaky, still it was cagy to effect the 11X106 object by-a curtsey from tog wife, and a supplant kook from the husband. The officera, knowing their character*, and fairly inferring their intent from the eireuinstances under which dhey fou n d them, did no more then their duty In apprehending them : and with respect to the alleged assault afterwards, if he was gighdy haepostad by his Wiest, no mere frees had been used than was necessary to repel the resistance which they met with ; but un. fortunately he was riot in *condition to prove this, as the complain ants had artfully contrived to indict both officers ; • still he trusted the Jury would rigittly weigh the case, and return such a verdict as would enable his client to leave the Court with honour. The CHAIRMAN. in summing up, said, that the case was one of very grest importance, and he should therefore pre face the sum. ming up of the evidence by souse general observations. As re petted the imprisonment, he could not consider it illegal, the charge being of • nature that rendered delay necessary, and the character of the man furnishing a strong presumption against him. The question whether the blows had been given, and the circumstances under which they were given, were matters for their (the Jury's) consideration ; and as he should read his notes of the evidence to them, they would be the proper judges as to what credit was to be attached to the evidence of Grant, and whether the violence, if they were of opinion that it had been used, was harsh and unnecessary. The worthy Chairman proceeded to recapitulate the evidence, and concluded by expressing his conviction, that whatever might have been the conduct of the officer whose case was before them, still the society had worked much good by ridding the streets of a great proportion of the impostors who used to infest them. The Jary, after a short conference, found the defendant Carinvi of the assault on Grant, but acquitted him of the assault on his wife, and also of the charge of Islse imprisonment. :sentence was de. Leered till each time as the other defendant might have taken his trial, and in the mean time Wright was admitted to ball. M saitTTlZa . li tt . nesran an aciion of trorer, brought htztita plaintiff, Oho Is a coachman, to recover damages for the toe of a dog. Mv. Conabw fbeactgawr stated the cue. The .lury. he ob. 1 terved. had already heard that the plaintiff was &coachman ; the defendant eta • lady of great opulence. residing at Maids Hill. There was no intention tan impute any dishonest motives to the lady lot teen affair; she had doubtless come fairly by the dog, and some- bine or other it had become a great favourite. and she was unwilling to ran shb k t the history of the transaction was shortly this: the dpi hed'been WWII a Mr. Siaglield, about the beginning of the year ISIS. and sold to Mr. Howe, the plaintiff, in the April fol- lotting. when it was about nine weeeks old. Sometime in July the dog was lost, and Mr. House never a got a glimpse of it for several nimitha. abet he saw it one day following a very handsome ear. mile. He inquired of the footman the name of his mistreat, , wedge las refined; he then laid hold of the dog, when the carriage wee drawn pp, and the lady said to him, " I desire that you will not take that dog away, as it belongs to me." She gave him her card, and desired him to call next morning at nine o'clock. He was punctual to the appointment, but was telld thatnothing could then be done. end he must call again at one o'clock. Redid so, when insteed of having the dog delivered my.

SOUTIIIVARK SESSIONS, TauisDAy, Ocr. 20. These Sessions ennunerced this day before the Lord Mayor. Recorder, and several Aldermen. The Grand Jury having been sworn, The RECOgDF.I addressed them in a neat and appopriate speech. congratulating them on the few cases for felonies that ap peared in the calendar, and those were of so common occurrence, that no difficulty would occur. He concluded by observing, that he lamented teat tiorn information from the Court beet, in this district, no less than 120 cases had come to the knowledge of that Court, of different tradesmen using false weights and measures, and he doubted, not several would come under the consideration of the Grand Sere ; and should a conviction take place, the Court would not fail in administering such punishment as would in all probability put estop to so disgraceful and injurious a practice. John Ilayne was indicted for feloniously stealing two silver spoons, the property of John Marriott, landlord of the Two Brewers, Redeems-street, Borough, on the 23d of July last. It appeared from the evidence, that the prisoner, in company with two other young men, on the day mentioned in the indict ment, entered the prosecutor's house, and during the absence of the ' landlord from the bar, the prisoner went in and stole the property now produced. The prisoner, and his companions, then made their escape, and offered the spoons for sale at a silversmith's shop in Tooley-street, where the prisoner was detained, and his com panions made their escape. The prisoner made no defence, and the Jury returned a verdict of Guilty. The enurt then sentenced him to seven years' transportation. John Graham was indicted for feloniously stealing a pair of trousers, value 24.. the property of William Townley, tailor. ; 263, High•street, Borough, on the 19th of September last. Morice Horn stated that he was shopman to the prosecutor. On the evening mentioned in the indictment, he perceived an arm ex tended towards reaching a pair of trousers, which were hanging at the door ; and on reaching the step, witness perceived.the prisoner running away with the property under his arm ; witness pursued, and with the assistance of one of the Bow-street patrol, apprehended the priboner. The Jury returned a verdict of Guilty. and he was sentenced to twelve months hard labour, in the House of Correction, Brixton, during which period to beonce privately whipped. William Clarkson and George Robson were convicted and sentenced to three months imprisonment at Brixton, for Riesling a shawl from the person of a little girl named Margaret Ilardwedge, on the ltlih September last, in Tooley-street. ZOJ.E. GUI I. Dii ALL. A very genteelly dresser} young man, who gave his name Jopeph Ginger, but whose station in life did not transpire„ brought before Mr. Alderman VENABLE'. yesterday, u pew Ilse charge of unlawfully seizing and detaining a W. Bank of England. note. • The complainant, Mr. Wm. Furnell, an ostrich feather manu facturer, residing in Nuble-street, Falcon square, stated, that hap pening to call in at the Sun public-house, Lotidomwall, on Wednesday night, he found some persons playing at dominoes in the parlour. lie sat down with them, and in the course of con. versation, as to their respective skill in the game, he offered to play any man in England for a sovereign. At that moment the prisoner entered the TOO ; and having suspected. him of cheating him upon a former occasion by slipping sonic of the dominoes into his pocket, he added to his challelge an exception against Ginger. After atme.further eonveraation,• hawed', he said he *mild pls,y ' with Ginger for gel. a-arffe, and the latter immediakely cried out that he would bet hint (Feirnell) IL sovereign that he was unable te, produce 501. Each then placed a sovereign in the hand of a third person, and he (witness) exhibited a 501. note to most of the persons present, from one of whom the prisoner snatched it, and then declared he would keep it until his sovereign, which, ac cording to the. terms of the wager, he had so fairly lost, wat re. turned to him: Mr. Furnell called in a constable, who found the .501. note upon the prisoner, and took him into custody. Mr. Alderman VEMAIILEL—WeII ; who has the note now. Mr. Furnell—The officer. Mr. Alderman VEWAHLEs—Let the prisoner look at it and say if It is the same Mr. Furnell produced. Mr. Ginger—lt iwthe same, Sir. Alderman Few tat ES—Then give it to Mr. Fumell. You are discharged, and let me hear no more now about this public house gambling bet ; hut let the landlord be summoned for suf fering dominoes to be played in his house. The landlord, who was present, was anxious to enter at once upon his justification, but the Alderman refused to hear him. The stakeholder then applied to know how he should dispose of the two sovereignai the A lderman, however, declined giving him any advice. Upon four girls, named lfolisood, Jones, Green, and Webb, being dharged before him as disorderly, the worthy Lord Mayor elect took occasion to express an opinion as to the treatment those unfortunate females who throng the stteets should receive from the often of the night, very opposite to that we have heard soma times fell from doe or two of the wophiptul bench. . In the prerent case, the watchman admitted he had accompanied his command to some of these unhappy creatures to " keep mov. ings" with a seisure of the arm, which the Alderman condemned as unnecessarily harsh as a first step, and as directly calculated to laid to brawling. The inspector of the watch (of St. Sepulchre's) replied, that they had posirive orders to clear the streets of their parish of all such characters. _ . Mr. Alderman VxwantEs- , -As to clearing the erects of Our, that is hopeless and if you had attempted it last night, you must have found more than the four prisoners you have brought bcfire me. The partiality with which.these orders operate is what I com plain of ; for where is the justice of seizing and punishing one for an offence of whit+ all are equally guilty ? I think that while these wretched ereateres conduct themselves in the streets with propriety, they should not be interfered with at all. The Alderman then committed one of the four, Eliza May wood, an audacious looking girl of seventeen, who was toptesented to have been extremely noisy and perverse, to the treadsiwill for one month.

T I I AM KS OFFICE. Slloolll{o CHARGE OF MURDER.—On Wednesday evening, the inhabitants of Shadwell, mere particularly those In the vicinity of the fatal scene, were thrown into the greatest consternation by the report of a murder having been committed by Mw W.liorwood, a wealthy and respectable undertaker, residing in Union -street, in that parish. It was soon ascertained that the report was' tob true, and that the wretched man had put an end to the existence of his grandson. Ile was taken to the watchhouse for the night, and was yesterday morning brot'giit up for examination. All the avenues leading to the Justice-room, and the street in front of it were thickly crowded. Immediately after Mr. Riehbellhad taken hi s sea t on the bench, the prisoner w as brought before him. On being placed at the bar, the unhappy men (Who hes arrived at the advanced age of 70) seemed an palmed with agitation, agalinoat to deprive him of a consclousnos of the proceeding. He however gradually recovered his self-possession, except at that part of it where it became nerrnsary to produce the dagger with which he had perpetrated the fatal deed. The Best witness was Mrs. Ann Hill, whose evidence was as fol. lows am a housekeeper to the prisoner. About half past eight o'clock on Wednesday evening the deceased George Barton called at our bonse. He was at liberty to come at any time and take his meal*. lie asked me for some meat, aril I cut some for him, to which he objected, saying it sellno fat.

A scuffle then took place. The deceased placed himself in a fighting attulude, and again abased the prisoner in the worst language, threatening his life. Ile st ruc k the prisoner a blow. The prisoner ,in return, struck him with a dagger, which he had in his hand et the time. -.......... ..... Magistrate—Hour happened it that he had that dagger at th e time ? Witness—lle used to keep it about him for these some mouth s past to protect himself, as the deceased, who was a very bad cha. meter, threatened that be should either himself murder his grand father, or get some confederate to do so. Examination resumed.--After the deceased was stabbed he stag. gered from the back parlour, where the blow was given, to the front door, on which he supported himself, by pl..cing his ann 'galosh the back. I went up, and asked what was the matter with hits ? He made no reply, but groaned heavily, and instantly fell to the ground He never spoke from the time Le received the fatal wound. I called to the prisoner to procure some assistance, and he went into the street. and in a few minutes returned with a watch. man, who, with an officer, took him into custody, sad removed him to the watchhouse. _ The dagger was produced ; it was very exquisitely fini s h e d, an d appeared of foreign manufacture. The blade, which was about 18 inches long, and of a peculiar form, was so covered with blood that the material of which it was composed was scarce perceptibk. The witness identified it. The wretched prisoner, on its production, closed his eyes, and trembled with extreme agony. Daniel Kinsman, a sea-faring man. residing at Poplar, stated that he wan passing the prisoner's house, wi% he was told Mat murder had been committed, in consequence of which he went for a constable and took the prisoner into custody. The prisoner skid, •• I have done the deed." Several other witnesses gave evidence as to the prisoner's appre, hension„ his voluntary surrender, and confession of the deed. Mr. Miller, a surgeon, residing in Charles -street. St. Georges. imthe-East, steed dist he was called in to attend the deems:NC who was lying at the prisoner's house. The fatal wound was on the left side of his chest, about three-quarters of an inch in length, and between the fourth and fifth ribs. It was evidently intlicel by a sharp instrument. The prisoner was remanded until twelve o'clock this thy, t o abide the result of the inquest, which was to be held last evening. The deceased, who was 25 years of age, pas respectably con. netted, but some time since he formed a connexion with a num bre of vicious characters, his morals consequently became so corrupted that he was deserted by all his relatives except his grandfather (tile prisoner), who clung to him through every misfortune, and only a short time since made a will, bequeathing to him property to a considerable amount. zwiligir T'HE ARMY.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE BRITISH PRESS. Stet,—l am induced from your well-known kindness in the came of humanity, to send you a most truly distressing case. viz. ,—The father of these children was an old Officer on the hilt" pay of the Royal Marines, who had once a good estate in Kent, but which from his too gre ttt liberality he mortgaged for qbove 20,600/. ; th e mortgagees sold the property for less than the mortgage; this hastened his end, and he died in March, 11323, leaving his widow with Seven children totally destitute. The late Captain James Mackay of the 70th Regiment, a brother ter the 'father of these children, immediately took the whole famiyunder his protection, and, with the assistance of a small subscription, supported them. I The widow soon after died of a broken hcatt,Jataving these orphans 4.4101 awe of their uncle (since which one child has also died). !This`tituly good man (who had nothing but his pay to live on) wan a father to them ; but, alas I worn oat with disappointment, anxiety, and grief abut the future provision of these orphans, he died at 'Winchester, on the 6th of .1* last. By his death there six children (four girls and two boys)are left without any means of support. With a view to save these poor children from a worse fate, Sir James Cockburn, Bart., the Rev.

A cave has lately been discovered at Harlaxton ? near Grantham, of a very curious construction : it is hewn out lof the white stone rock, and in the inferior were found aortie wheat and barley, quite black, and,apparently mixed with ashes ; a pair of ancient stone querns lay in the same place. There was a hole in the middle of the bottom Stone for a spindle, and'another in the side for - a shaft to turn the stone round with ; so that the stone might be turned with one baud whilst corn was dropped down with the other like a hopper. When and by whom this cave was used, it Would. be very di ffi cult to determine. There is no appearance of foundations or earth works near the place. The spot was woody and thorny, previous to the enclosure, and formed part of the common cow pasture.— Boston Gazette. A NEW METHOD OF HATCHING CHICEEEL—Wehare read of the man who applied to the Lord Mayor fora patent to hatch chickens by steam, but ii appears . a less exrensive method may be adopted. In Mr. Dowker s watehonse (the London carrier) there were about fifty sheets of wool depo sited, and while Mr. W. Wilson, the agent, and his men, were busily employed the other day, they heard a chirping noise, as of chickens, like enough, as the result will prove. On removing five or SIX of the sheets, they discovered ten chickens and a rotten egg. The birds were all alive, but not healthy and strong, for they had had nothing to eat since they came into the world, and their stomachs were rebel lious. They were fed. put under a hen ; and are now all Irealtbrand strong. No hen could have access to the place where they were discovered. It appears the eggs had been deposited on some straw over which the wool had been laid, and the warmth created by the quantity had nurtured the eggs, and produced the existence of the brood. Then let not the Lord Mayor grant patents (if he can) for this pur pose' as a few eggs, a bundle of straw, a nd a pack of v.ocl. *ill bring forth chickens in abundance. —York Ceti- a , t.
