CASE OF THE AL3fORAII. The seittlfe of this vessel at Sydney, New South Wales, ty the oScers of his Majesty's ship siaurv, for an alleged infraction of the Hist India Company's charter, hat roma a subject of great interest with the commercial world generally; who look with much solicitude for the deeison of this mtestion, which has been referrtd to the Prize Courts its Calcutta. We have been desired, therefore, to make public the following statement of the occurrence, as the must aceurste which has vct appeared, and which is taken from the 3rtiey Gazette of the Sitth of February : buret theotrival of the Almorah, the public attentiun has been =taryeeted. This vessel. with a considerable quantity of o board, and all her tine and valuable, cargo, hap been wised by eliptain Mitchell, of his Majesty'. sh ip Slaney. Some epoch go to estimate the value of the ship stud cargo at between OmutiOf. and iff,BooL—a tolerable prise in time of peace, could the swoon for a moment be untenanted that such a seizure is warranted by aoy.Act 0) . Parliament at present extant. T'ie capture is said ts har.: otcatrett under a breath of the navigarom laws, which is alleged to migioate us an infringement on the Last India Corn. psey's Moister We do not pretend to be acquainted with much of the science of law, but, as he as common sense can terry us, Per htirs.we ;my be allowed to express our settimenis to common wide the learned fraternity. That the Fast India Company hare .• the sole end exclusive right of tradirg and using the hum nem of inerchandise in, to. and from the donnr.ione of the Ern pryer of China, sod the whole, sole, and seclusive right of trading us tea, in, to, and from all islands, parse, mad places between the Caot of Good Hope and the Straits of Magellan, Fie. ," is • fact *nit which we are necessarily acquainted ; but that the East India Company, sal even a British man-of. war, has any right to interfere huh, twee of a foreign port, is quite novel doctrine. If Java Is Pita. or China is Java, then the East India Company might with teeth be said to have some darn to " the exclusive trail fa tea ;" but till such is proved actually to be the fact, and that Jive is in any way connected with, or subject to, the Company's territories, we must pronounce the seizure of the Atmore!) by the Slaney to be an impolitic, arbitrary, and illegal act. Whilst the second Minion of the Charter gives the Company the eaclusiee trade with China, the eiebth Notion rens as follows :—" It shall not be law. ftil for any moron, save only the United Company, or such as shall obtain their special leave and license in writing. or a special i leave and Benue in writing under their authority for that pur. po so ship, terry, or put on board any ship in the East Indic% or. ml lelthin'the limits aforesaid, or to import into the said Witport gai T ttmestilitv (Great Britain) from any or place whatever., alty tea." ahosild be obliged to any one tio.t can inform us whether the A in this instance, has imported ten into the United . K n ' e are not now descanting upon the expe diency or l o wa • . of the policy that has marifested itself in the ingd itent imported°, this meglomerated cargo from a foreign post, resew. bit such discussion to a future paper ; but it is the legality of a spire made by a British man-of-war, in a British port. of 4 bitUAS merchant ship, chartered espressly foe thy British Government by a British Governor, that we are iMperiously called upon to dispute. If the act or the will of a Captain of a man of wet is to be opposed at any and every opportunity to the act and will of the Governor of the country in which his rusel may per. chaste be tiring, then it would be equally as reasonable in the Cs.nruaoder of the King's ship to come ea shore, with his crew and a file of marines, and become at once invested with the executive authority. The Governor-in-Chief of this colony, who is Viee. A dottrel of the port, and whose title, either on shore of 'diet, within the.barbour, is far ea perior to that of the Captain or arty nan-of.war, happened to be impelled, from what were conaider,sl motives of ne cessity to change a vessel with the view of proceeding on to the nearest pat, and thus bring down a timely supply of necessaries. TO facilitate this object, as well as to render it more eirient, a Deputy Assistant Commissary-General is directed to proceed as su perego. The vessel being thus chartered by the Government, and put in possession of a King's officer, must be held by every think. tog otac to be bona fide equal to any ship bearing the " leave oe I:cense" of the East India Company. From whom does she receive this license, or, more properly speaking, guarantee from spoliation ? From the King of England, or from his repre- sentative, which is one and the same thing ? And it may be in. maimed, why was TSCOOOOS had to such a step? Because the preservation of thOusands of lives were then conjectured as involved is the measure. But it will be argued, that no authority, how. ever potent, has the power of violating this far-famed char ter, which having been Infringed on, renders every hypothesis that may be brought forward in support of the step altoge ther unavailing. Let us see, however, how tar this said fetighth section ban been violated. The Government charters the Air:loran to proceed, not to Chins, where the Company have " the thle and exclusive trade," but to the nearest port, which happens to be Batavia, and a foreign port I We will insist that the Governor could under the peculiar circumstances of the sawn have even sent the vessel on to China, and not to the nearest port, bad such been the most advisable way to have acted. Provisions were becoming scam, the harvest wore a for. bidding aspect, and the Government felt compelled to charter the Alinoralt. In the mean time, however, to the aston'shment of the colonists, tbzumee-leoguishing fields yield a produc.ive and luxu. nine barytes. and the famine with which we were threatened has been providentially averted; but this moducesro variation in the case. The stand of jays being under the dominion of the Dutch author ritiemeannot possibly be subject to the rule of the East India COM. psay, and the latter, therefore, dare not, we should presume, think ofbiocking up a friendly port. By the present charter it would ap weerthet • it is not lawful for any person to ship, carry, or put on bowl. any ship in the East Indies, any tea." The absurdity of such 1 clause oust be obvious to the most shallow understanding, if it is to he received in an indefinite settee. In the event Odds clause ob soloing universal sanction, It must follow that the British Perlis meat lua she power of shutting up all foreign ports, in these bakoop days, even to is own distressed Govetnmests. This would be profound legislation with a vengeance ! Has not the Governor of this or any other colony, in eases of emergency, equal right with that of the American skipper, who can run to any port, men Is China, end take home a cargo of tea 1 Then why should K not.bc premised that a British Governor is armed with sufficient autbosity to despatch a vessel, for needful supplies, to the first port, alio:tilting that to be a foreign port? We ehould hope, for the. borour of the British Crown, that the very high authority of a Govertice.in-Chief has not yet dwindled away to the level of a Liostenant In the navy, however respectable we may hold such wink ; for, if it should turn out that the present seizure be a lawful eMze, then most decidedly his Majesty's representative comes under the surveillance of a Post-Captain or Commander. "...Isis may hare been within the limits of the authority of the 'East India °moony, and while it so continent the clause Pri duestion would bell good, except in the present peculiar rase t but stow, that it is without the llmita of the authority of th e East India Compeer, most probably the lawyer will find no Mel difficulty it adjatigiog the AIMOTAii to be a lawful prise, whereas, upon the other hand. considerable comprehension is not requisite to penetrate ir to the only judgment tint can follow err act so Inauspicious and ueyustillthiel .• Foe the information of the public, it would be as well to ascertain soon what authority the Stoney bait attempted this overt act of leelence, within the harbour of Port Jackson? It mop be answered, that the authority of the men-of-war is very great—ray, almost on. Iforlted ; bat yet, it is to be recollected, for the ends of public judos, that there are certain lines of demarcation, beyond which seen the bulwarks of old England dare not obtrude. The civil law, thanks be to the wisdom and energy of our forefathers, assumes to itself the precedence of the military and maritime laws--there valet bow to the sovereign &clam of our civil cede. We have ritsimaits.inn, therefore, in rendering public the enun cation ' that Gagtain Mitchell had no power to make any prise of the Almorab, anther can he be warranted in retaining poasewion, within the bode of Port Jackson ! There might have been a glimpse of a withessful issue ie. a legal contest, had the Shiner fallen in with the Almorah at sea ; but the supposition must not for a moment be fostered , that which would mandate a lawful prise at sea must necessarily hecome a rightful seizure in per.. In illustration of sthich doctrine we beg to lay before the public the following coula, one rather ut point:—ln the year 1819, a tine ship of 1,200.1 WIN belonging to Seen and Co. of Java, took in cargo at the fillohnithis ; her nun* is wonted to have been the Shaw. an& The Masieleane frigate ' Captain Purvis, was then riding lo , Put Louis.

A reversal, however, of the judgment of the Court took place, bat not before the house had been ruined by etas unjustifiable met of a British commander ! in this ewe Captain barge was well aware of the deoger he would incur in outsogiog the Mumma, in tuts-taming a seizure in port; and even when the utters was made on lawful ground ; yet by a court tit justice the egrohtee of Cameos Purvis appeared In the most d'sativantageous Ligi.g, at least as far as legality was included.

MIDDLESEX' ADJOURNED SESSIONS, OCT. 1. James Goodrril and Bertiantin Glanville were indicted for es- strutting George Henry Beane, who stated that he WA, a watertnan , plying at the Tower-stairs, and on the Ist of August was shoving his boat off from the Venus steam-packet, when a piece of beef • was thrown at him, which, If it had struck him overt:oval. would, beyond'sll doubt. have driven him under the paddle wheels, and drowned him, though he could have swam like a fish. The de. fendants were under steward and engiseer on board the packet, hut the prosecutor did rot see either of them commit the outrage. A bucket of water was likewise thrown oil him. Tne witness not being able to swear the assault against either of the defendants, the Jury found them both—Nut Guilty. Thomas Luekyrr was indicted for assaulting a little girl of the name of Mary Agnes. The witness deposed that she was preventing two children quarrelling, when the defendant came out and struck her twice very severely with a whip ; the second blow knocked her down the stairs, and she still felt its effects, although given on the 113th of July. She thought that the assault happened about five is the evening. The evidence was corroborated. In his defence the prisoner called a Mr. Brown, who swore that the prisoner drank tea with him on the evening in question, and was in his house from tour o'clock till nearly six. The Jury did not seem to think that the alibi was a sufficient one, for they immediately found the defendant guilty, and he was fined 41. with liberty to speak to the prosecutrix. William Thomarm was indicted for the assault of Anne Ed wards, on the 23ffJuly. Anne Edwards stated that she hail been the servant of the de fendant, but finding the workaoo hard for her, had given warning, on which Captain Newburgh, a lodger in the house, hired her as his own servant. The Captain went out one day in his gig, and told her to get dinner ready by eight o'clock ; she was occupied in so doing, when Thompson ran down and'swore that he would turn her out of the biotite, and struck her violently on the shoulder, on which she cried " Murder," and ran up +tries. On cross-examination by Mr. ANDREWS, the witness said that a female servant of Ike name of Anne Philpot was not in the kitchen at the time of the assanit, and that she did not run up stairs after the assault, and scream " Murder" from the window. For the defence, Mr. Awronwe called Anne Philpot, who swore that she was in the kitchen when the assault happened—that the plaintiff was very impudent to Mrs. Thompson, and that she ran up to the first-floor window, and screamed " Murder." Her mu ter did not strike her, but only pushed her out by the shoulders. Brant, a constable, was passing by, and seeing a mob went in, when Mr. Thompson gave charge of his servant, hut afterwards altered his mind, and said he would apply to Cant. Newbury. The Jury instantly returned a verdict of Guilty, or which the Chairman sentenced the defendant to pay a fine of 201., with liberty to speak to the proaectorix. By this asoteoce the girl will receive 101., from which her ex peeses are to be paid. Edward Neale, a young man, was indicted for assaulting a peace.officer of the name of John Leming'. Mr. C. PHILLIPS, for the defence, admitted that the assault was clearly proved, but dwelt much on tine tact, which was stated in the course of the evidence, that after the assault, and before the prosecutor knew where to find the defendant, the latter himself came voluntarily to the prosecutnt's house to apologize, and ex press how sorry he was that a little liquor should have so fur made him forget himself as to commit the assault in question ; this was entirely admitted by the complainant as a tact, but not as a repara tion, and he had therefore pursued the defendant to conviction. On the Jury returning a verdict of Guilty, The Catataxaw said, that the Court was bound to protect peace.ofEcers, though the complexion of the case was certainly most materially altered by the voluntary and ample apology which the defendant had made to the officer, as soon as his reason re turned to him. Ceder that palliating eircumetanee, the Court would content itself with seotencing him to be imprisoned for the term of seven days, and then to be discharged. Dy the desire of the Chairman, the defendant was kept in Court till the end of the sitting, when his punishment was further miti gated to three days' imprisonment, the Court expressing a high opinion of the contrition that he had evinced. David Bryant stood indicted for assaulting Judith Sheen on the 16th of August last. Mr. ALLEY stated the case for the prosecution. The assault was do most outrageous nature, and was committed in the Court of Requests for the Tower Hamlets, in the presence of the Com missioners of the Court, by whom the present prosecution was in. stituted, in the hope that the judgment of the Court would prevent the occurrence of such outrages in future. Judith Sheen, being sworn, stated, that on the day named in the Indictment, she appeared in the Court of Requests to ans wen a summons obtained against her by the defendant for an alleged debt of 13s. The Commissioners, after hearing the case, deeidel, that there was only 31. due to him. On hearing the decision he flew into a violent passion, and came up to her, and struck her violently in the face, so as to knock her down, and cause the blood to gush out of her mouth and nose. Gregory, one of the Commissioners, and Longhouse, the beadle, confirmed this account. and also swore positively that •no provocation was given him by the woman. For the defence three witnesses were called, who swore they saw the woman strike the first ~!ow. The Jury instantly found him Guilty. The CHAIRMAN told him he hail aggravated his case by calling witnesses to swear to what every body in court must believe to be false. It really was lamentable to see the numbers who were con tinually coming into that Court and perjuring themselves ; indeed the crime had now become so common, that it seemed to have lost all its horror, and he feared it would continue to increase till come example!wss made. The sentence of the Court was, that he be im prisoned two months and kept to hard labour. POLICE. MANSION-HOUSE. On Saturday Joseph Hurt, one of the children of Israel, aged about 16, appeared to answer the complailit of Mrs. Eli:. Levy, whose beautiful figure and dark eyes reminded us of the exquisite description of Rebecca, in the admirable novel of Ivanhoe. She was attended by a tribe of Israelites. Considerable confusion was oc. casioned by their entree. As soon as silence was restored, the complainant, after curt seying gracefully to the Magistrate, made the following state ment:—She had been some few yews married to Mr. Abraham Levy, during which time they lived happily together, but their domestic comfort was entirely destroyed by the defendant, who had been taken into the service of her husband as an apprentice Her husband recently had occasion to go out of town for a few days, and sines his return the defendant hadAboasted to 'erectsl of their mutual friends that he had, during his absence, enjoyed the favours of the complainant. (In her questioning hint on the sub ject, he repeated his statement, and her husband at length was in duced to believe his story, and in consequence treated her with neglect, This was more than she could bear, and the next time she met the defendant she would have murdered him, but for the interposition of some by-standers. She then solemnly declared that every word of his statement wits false, and that Ite had circu lated the same report relative to several other women. Here a host of Ladies from the neighbourhoodlof Houndstlitch stepped forward, all equally anxious to bear testimony to the truth of the above statement, each of whom were attended by their husbands, whose jealous looks intimated that they were not quite satisfied on the . subject Mr. Alderman Scholey (who sat for the Lord Mayor) asked if the complainant had any witnesses to corroborate her asvertion ? to which she replied in the affirmative, and called several persons, who proved that they had heard the offensive words uttered by the defendant, In his defence the Jewish Lothori said, that the statements lie had made were partly untrue. On a late occasion, when his master was out of town, the complainant had invited him to share her bed, saying, that as the window shutters of her mom were out of repair she dreaded sleeping done, end was therefore anxious for his company as an additionsleprotection ; and he not having so great a shire of virtue as his namesake manifested when a similar application was made to him by Mrs. Potiphar, complied with he r request ; but he could assure is Worship that nothing improper took plate between them ; and although the report he had after wards circulated was a little exaggerated, yet the greater part was true. This declaration was answered by an exclamation from the ladies aforesaid of " What a wretch I" while their husbands shrugged up theirshoulders, as if they hesitated which to believe. The Magistrate dismissed the case, and advised. the parties to apply to their High Priest on the subject. It was intimated to the defendant that the punishment for his of fence was by the Jewish law settled that he should be stoned to death.' John Gabey was examined on suspicion of 'being copcemed in a daring burglary, that was committed on Friday night in the house of Mr. Gifford, a wholesale tob ac c on i s t, i n Suffolk-lane. The prosecutor stated, that the prisoner had for some time put been employed by him to toll llavannah segars, which were ex tremely valuable. On Friday night his warehouse was broke open, and the semi which had been manufactured by the prisoner, and kept in a private part of the warehouse known only to the pri soner, were stolen to the amount of upwards of 3001. On his coming to the warehouse on Friday morning he was questioned about the goods, end the answer he gave being unsatisfactory be was given in charge to an officer. He was remanded until further inquiries can be made. GUILDHALL On Saturday John Mho* flichardron, the young man who was remanded on a former day on n charge of having been concerned with a man named Wllimn, who was tried at the last Old Bailey seseinns, in committing sundry fraud. by means of obtaining Bina of Exchange frnin different credulous persona, was brought up for re-examination; bet, after waiting one hour, 111 r. A Iderntan Cox discharged him, no prosecutor appearing. sheritrs ollicer was, however, in attendance, who iterated him for debt. Soon after the prisoner *as removed from the bar, Mr. Creed, the tailor. who was originally, concerned in the prosenstion, ap• peered with his witnesses, arid some ducumentaay evidence, sorb as letters, bills of exchange, &c., from a r i t io h e assert "' that he could substantiate a clear case of fraud against Sighardson, it not of forgery. The Alderman, however, declined interfering, alleging that as Richardson was in custody for debt, he might be detained, and brought up on 31ond.sy HOW-STREET. Foaosar ott M EMS. SANSOII Asto Co's 13.%1C.—The fate of Horger, : al , as De (;!Ford, the ci-detant Major, who was im plicated in this transaction, is still undecided. It was confidently erpeeted that tlte prlsoney could have been brought Ito on Saturday for final examination, and 031 he would have been either commit tal or discharged. At twelve o cloak, Mr. Hurnphnes, who conducts the defence, moue into the race. but so Freshfield, the Solicitor for the Bank, nor any of the witnesses, had not arrived. Mr. HALLS, the sitting Magistutre. said it would he better that thecase should stand over wail one o'clock. and Mr. Humphries went away. Soon af terwards, Mr. Freshfield appeared, but hone of the other parties having come forward at two o'clock, Mr. H•f.Le said, that under every circumstance it might be as well to postpone the investigation ' until Tuesday. Mr. Frealiiiild said he saw no objection to this arrangement, and it was co entered ; Mr. Freshfield undertaking to apprise the pi ' goner's solicitor of the change. - - - - - A simple looking young nt -- In having made one of his best bows to the bench, intimated that be had a communication or a very se riou► nature to make. The Magistrate (Mr. flails) was. of course, all ear, and the applicant went on to say, that he had purchased a horse from one of those honourable gentlemen--the Yorkshire Dealers., for which he had paid down in hard cash a very consider able price, urder a positive assurance that the Bucephalus should prove " sound wind and limb t" but what was his consternation. surprise, and dismay, to find that his highly panegyrised animal had, at the time of sale, such a complication of disorders, that all the doctors of Paris, and Edinburgh to boot, would not be able to restore him to a state of convalescence. In fact, beside being spavined, thrusited, broken-winded, and cat-hummed, he was ac tually in the state of a gallofing consumption, though there was not a gallop in his bones. l'he applicant having rung all the changes un the veterinary chimes, to the great edification of Mr. Halls, he at length informed that gentleman that the object of his present visit was to know whether his Worship might not issue a warrant for this faithless warranter, who had cheated Mtn into the belief that the sick horse was a sound one. . Mr. HALLS, however, declined interfering, and recommended the applicant to consult his elicitor. as an action at common law was the only medium of indemnifying himself for any loss sus tained under such circumstances. lIATTON-GARDEN. The landlord of the Sun public-house, Sutton-street, Clerken well, was on Saturday brought up, charged with permitting gam bling in his house. A letter, signed by a person giving it residence in the street, was sent to the office, saying, that a constant scene of gambling, raffling with dice, &c. was carried on in the house, and two officers were despached in consequence. They found a party raffling with dice, and took them all into custody. The landlord said that he had been seven years a publican, and had kept that house two years, but never permitted gambling of any description. Ile admitted that there was a raffle on Friday night, but not for money.—it was merely a charity for a poor black man, Mho raffled a picture of the battle of Waterloo, to obtain a temporary subsistence. Several witnesses bore testimony to the truth of the landlord's account; and the watchman said that his house was always most quiet and orderly. Mr. Larwo—But here is a letter, stating that your house is al ways noted for gambling. You see it is not an anonymous letter, but has a name and address. The officers, Read and Lloyd, said, that they searched in rain at the house specified, and indeed in the whole street, but could find no person of the name stated. The landlord said that lie was unconscious of dice being prohi bited. Mr. LAING again told him that it was not an anonymous letter, but bore a real sn,mature, and he must answer the consequences of suffering gamblirg in his house. Mr. Sergeant SELLOti having glanced over the letter, said that if the officers could not find the person at the written address, the letter was goal for nothing, and wan the same as if it had been ano nymous, fur it was anonymous to all intents and purposes. Mr. baisro now cautioned the landlord to beware of suffering any more raffling, and ordered him to be discharged. QUEEN-SQUARE. The redoubtable Mary Ann Pcarcc, yclep'd Lady Darrymote, had an audience of Mr. Markland, the sitting Magistrate, on Sa turday. tier Ladyship was attended by Hill, the street-keeper, who ungallantly accused her of having been beastly drunk the night before, and causing a great disturbance around the liquor-shop of Mr. Mills, in Great Chapel-street, Westminster. Iler Ladyship's apparel was In a very dilapidated condition, and she appeared to be in a very bad state of health. She had only left her chakau in Tothill-fields a day or two ago, where she invariably takes up her quarters, but was permitted to take fresh sit upon a promise that her stay would be for ever; however, her broken promises were as numerous as the times that she has paid visits to the different po lice offices, and she was now brought forward to answer for them. The worthy Magistrate, after hearing the charge preferred against her, was again induced, by her making the 157th promise that she would leave Westminster, to discharge her, hoping at the same time she would keep it inviolate. Her ladyship promised most solemnly that if she got her liberty again she would Instantly retire o u t o f IVestminster, and never be sten in it more. Upon this promise the magistrate took compassion upon the un fortunate woman, and ordered her to be set at liberty. WORSH I P-STREET. Mr. Moumfaiw, of the Saracen's Head Inn, Snow-hill, and Mr. iisbleshite, stage-coach proprietors, were ►ummoned, on Satur day, btuor„: Mr. Twyford, the Magistrate, on the information of Johnson, charging them with carrying more than twelve outside passengers by the " Liverpool Express." Johnson's wimess stated, that he observed the coach at the Pea cock, at Islington, and swore that there were more than twelve out. side; but could not Identify Mr. litbblewhite as the wachnisn. Mr. Kibblewbite did not deny being the driver of the coach or its proprietor, but alleged that as the information was incorrect in its material point—namely, the number ; and as Mr. Johnson could trot swear to his person, the Information ought to he quashed. Mr. Twirroßn—This is a rotten ca s e, and I shall quash the in formation. Mr. Kibblewhite complained of being thus brought out of his business„on such slender grounds, and hoped the Magistrate would allow him costs, as well as some compensation for his loss of time. Mr. Ty/Yvon° thought the request a very reasonable one, and on some consultation as to the amount to be allowed for loss of time, ordered Mr. Johnson to pay ten shillings s-day, and costs, which made twenty-six shillings. Mr. Johnsen peremptorily refused to pay the money, and said he knew no law which could compel him to do so. Mr. Kibhlewhite wished of the Magistrate, after such a positive declaration, to inform him how he was to proceed to enforce the payment of the money. Mr. TWYPORD (evidently displeased)—Why, I'll tell you, Mr. Kibblewhite, you may issue a distress on his goods; and if he has none, come again to me, and I will send Mr. Johnson to the House of Correction for one month. Mr. Johnson, not liking the prospect of a month's amusement at the tread-mill, then reluctantly paid the money, observing, at the time he did so, that he did it out of " due homage and respect to the Magistrate ;" " but," said he, "it is not fifty or a hundred pounds that shall induce me to relax in my future endeavours to bring Air. Kibblewhite again before your V. orship." Mr. Kibblewhite thought there was something malicious in Mr. Johnson's manner and w.sertion, and requested to know of the Ma gistrate if he could not alibrd him some protection against the consequences. Mr. Twernitn—T ran afford you no protection ; but if you come here you shall have justice. The office was crowded by cosch proprietors and others interested In the result of the application, and were evidently much delighted with Mr. Twyford's decision. Mr. Johnson, feeling displeased with the issue of the affair, postponed several other informations, which he was about to bring forward, indefinitely. THAMES OFFICE. Edward Clarke appeared at this office on Saturday last before William John Droderip, Esq. the presiding Magistrate, to an in. formation filed against him by Charles Tickell, street-keeper for the hamlet of Ratcliffe, charging him with riding in the public some upon his employers, Messrs. Taylor and Sens' dray, and also with driting the same on the foot.pavement, whereby an in ' jury was sustained, contrary to the act passed in the 57th Geo. 111, c. 29. and alas to the great danger of his Majesty's subjects. 'file information being read, the defendant was called upon to plead thereto, and pleaded not guilty. William Thomas 'Jamison was then called, and sworn, and de. posed as follows :—I am superintendent of the Rstcliff pavement. (In the 10th of September, about three o'clock in the afternoon, in company with Charles Tickell, the street-keeper, in Church-lane, Ratcliff-cross. I saw the defendant riding on the shafts of a dray, and over the foot-pavement, which was materially injured thereby, the circumstance was made known to the Commissioners of' Pave. menus, who directed the case to be brought to this office; to pre. vent, if possible, such dangerous practices. Magistrate to the defendant—Have you any questions to ask of the witness? Defendant—No,. your worship, I have not. Charles Tickell, the street.keeper, then being called and sworn, confirmed the last witness's statement, and the defendant being unable to confute the same, the Magistrate explained to him, that under the Act of Parliament to which his case applied, lie, the de. fentlant, hail rendered himself liable to a penalty of 5/. and not less than 40s. ; but as there was • discretionary power vested in the Magistrate, he would convict him in the minor penalty and costs, and in default of payment, lie would be committed to prison. The defendant appeared much satisfied with the lenity which had been shown him by the Worthy Magistrate, paid the conviction, expressed his contrition, and promised not to ntlimtl ague in the like manner. TOWN HALL. A Dockbead blood, exhibiting fanciful symptoms of derange ment of the inward and outward men, was, on Saturday, politely invited to step up into the dock anti listen to the charge of having bilked an angel in his way, a modest hackney-coachman!, of hie lure. William Vt'eller, the rara avis, dressed in the livery of a gentle. man's groom, with the buttons bearing the family crest still at. tacked, respectfully ol.r.erved thet he was the driver of the hackney coach No. 93, and was called from the stand opposite the English Opera Douse at twelta o'clock, on Friday night, by the prisoner, who agreed to Aire hint lts. Lid. for driving hint to Deametreet, Talley-street. During their drive many kind and tempting offers were made to hint, on passing the niffiirent nighthouses, to treat him with gin, which he invariably declined ; and on their arrltall in Tooley.strret, the gentien an descended f rom t h e boa. 1.1:t• out 'his purse, ss he.; the complainant, considered, to pity him : wh en, atier fninbling It for some time, he said it struck him he had paid the fare, which the Complainant declared on' Me oath he never did still he would not have 1.-iven the gentleman into custody had he not repeatedly been urged hr a watchman w bring the case before s Alagistrate it he had been cheared. This the watchman deposed to be the fact, and that In carte. quente the gentleman was taken to the areteh.house. The gentleman said he did not doubt the accuracy of the 'Urge. den; and was ready to pay the coachman his tars and for lou u: time, which was assent's/. AFFECTING INSTAWCZ or SELF-DEstßucrio.‘ An occurrence of a most distressing norm, and attended by fats! consequences, took place on IVednesday last in the family of p er , son named Devonshire. trebling in New Inn-yard, Curtain- rose Shoretlitch. The eldest daughter, Rebecca Devonsitire, reti re d t a her bed.room in the course of the day, leaving the other membe r of the family in a room below stairs. Nothing peculiar in lee r b,„ havintir was then °bunted, but in two or three minutes afterwards the family was alarmed by her groans, and battened up stair., w h ere they found het lying on the bed suffering the most dreadful a3onv. A cup which stood near her, and three papers which were round concealed in her beisorn, each of them labelled " Oxilm pisiniy indicated the cause of her sufferings, osed neediest assistanc e being sought for, Mr. Collier. surgeon.of Crld-street-rosel, sceom pe . flied by some other professional gentlemen, Instantly attended, sad having by means of the Patent Stomach Pomp extracted the cop . tents of the stomach, exerted all their skill for the preservation 0s their wretched pdtient, but in vain, for the quantify of the poison was so large, that its action on the coats of the stomach was in. stantaneous, and so powerful sq to render all their endeavours to counteract its effects abortive ; and the unhappy woman shortly afterwards expired. While the medical gentlemen were thus engaged, a youngey sitter, between whom and the deceased a tender affection had ed. slated, reduced to a state of mind bordering on frenzy by her sister's sufferings and the prospect of their approaching separation, took the cup which still contained the dregs of the potson, sod baring filled it wish water, was in the act of swallowing the deadly (laugh:, when her hand was arrested by Alt.

Th e papers found in the deceased's bosom, which had contained the acid, were all three labelled differently, from which it appeared that they had been purchased at di ff erent pl ac e s ; a nd I t i s supposed that each paper had contained an ounce, as, on examining the contents of the stomach, it was ascertained that not less than two ounces had been taken. A Coroner's Jury, consisting of some of the most respectable in. habitants of the neighbourhood, assembled the following day at the Jacob's %Fell public-house to investigate the case. A tradesm an , of great respectability, residing in Threadneedle -street, stated that he bad known the deceased intimately for 16 rears, and she had been in the habit of visiting in her family. Within the last three weeks. he said there had been a very perceptible change in the state of her mind, for which he was unable to account. From other evidence adduced it appeared that for some time past the deceased had been in a dejected melancholy state, owing, it was said, to some unfortunate attachment which she had formed. After a due consideration of all the circumstances the Jury were satisfied that the deceased was of unsound mind when she perpe trated the fatal act, and, under the direction of the Coroner, return. ed a verdict to that effect. IMPORTANT INYENTION.—In the present scarcity of draw-boys, it gives us great pleasure to announce, that Claud Wilson and Alexander Lang, weavers, George street, have made a most important improvement upon the French Harness Machine, which, in many respects, will be of the utmost advantage to the trade. The French machine cost 131. for a harness 400 of a tye ; whereas, one upon the new principle can be procured for 3!. and of 200 of a tye, for 4!. ; the treadle in the former requires to be pressed down nine inches, in the latter only four and a half. The web which has been selected for a trial, is a common imitation shawl; but the inventors "re Con6qut that they will be able to, fork a shawl, plaid, or trimming; with three covers, with one half of the cards that are rt• quired upon the French plan. The machine has been ex amined by a number of manufacturers, weavers, and me chanics, who have all expressed themselves highly fied.—Pais/ey Advertiser. ROBBERY OF TIIE BOLTON BANIC.—We understand that the Bolton bankers have not, as yet, hearl any thing of the property which was stolen from the bank last week. It appears probable that something occurred to alarm the robbers whilst they were engaged in their nefarious design ; for they did not penetrate into the interior part of the safe, where was deposited a sum considerably larger than the one they obtained ; and they not only left the safe door open, with the key they had used in the lock; but they also left behind them an Instrument of new invention, and of an in. genious and expensive construction. It was apparently in tended to force open doors by the power of a screw, and Wll in power something like the screw-jack used for taking off the wheels of heavy carriages; but the screw was much finer and more powerful. It was enclosed in a neat leather case, and then looked not unlike a telescope.—/Lf anchtster Guardian. I SHERiORNE MENDICITY SOCIETY.—A very excellent Institution was formed in Sherborne four years ago, for the relief of such meritorious and indigent persons as might be found travelling from place to plice, and soliciting pecu niary aid from those of their fellow creatures who stood in more favourable circumstances. Another object of the so ciety was—to detect and expose, and, where lawful, to pu nish impostors. Lord Digby very handsomely subscribed to it 201. per annum, and other of the inhabitants of the town and neighbourhood, together about 46/. which amount was found amply sufficient to relieve all really digressed persons, who applied for help during the year, and left a considerable amount in the hands of the Treasurer. In that year five hundred and forty-nine persons applied for relief, of whom one hundred and seven were deemed undeserving assistance, and six of them committed ; leaving four hun dred and forty-two persons, who, in the course of the first year, received every kind of necessary aid: The second year the number was decreased to four hundred and twenty-four, fifty were deemed undeserving, and spree only committed. The third year four hundred and forty two applied, forty-eight were rejected, and three commit ted. In the year just ended there have been only three hundted and fifty-nine applicants, nineteen only refused relief, and one committed. Thus, in the course of four years the number of applicants has been diminished Iron five hundred and forty-nine to three hundred and fifty nine; the number of persons refused from one Itundrtil and one to nineteen, and those deserving committal front six to one.—Dorchester Journal. SINGUL•RDEATII.-011 Saturday night, John M‘lican, weaver, a man upwards of eighty years of age, met with his death in a very singular manner. He had sent his grand-daughter to a neighbouring shop, to purchase two pies and half an ounce of snuff; being somewhat under the influence of liquor, lie, on her return, emptied the snuff into one of the pies, of which he afterwards ate s part, which caused suffocation and almost immediate death. He has been a resident in Carted ice for a great number of years, and bore the character of a sober industrious man. —Glasgow Paper. BIRTHS.
