Twist' swore, that he had been only engaged as a weekly Set ,:tltt, dischargrable at a moment's notice. Mr. l'wiss said, that the servant had been looking into his law Looks., from winch he drew legal inferences in his own favour..—(A Laugh.)—But the truth was as Mrs. Twins had stated. )le. At. t.h. y appeand for the defendant, and Mr. ADOLPHUS for the appellant. He had taken a little trouble to find out at what sons the servant could hare had weekly, at a yearly salary of 81. Perhaps Mr. and Mis. Twins would waist him in his calculations. :tar he made the weekly rate. at 52 weeks, three shillings, three far. things. and 36-52 parts of /1 farthing.—(Loud laughter.) The appeal was allowed. POLICE. Al A 1q8I0'. ;-- -IIOUSE. A man named Ruben Williams was yesterday brought before the Loan Maltose, charged with haying converted to his own use eleven coats, the property of a pet son r.anied Clark. John Connolly stated, that he was security to .Me. Clark far the honest dealing of the prisoner, in whose house a fire afterwards tub place. l'he prisoner pleaded to his employer that the coats bad been all burnt in the fire, and as property wu certainly last. it was supposed that the account was true. However, soon after. wards it was ascertained that some of the coats were pledged at a wnbroker's, and the prisoner admitted that four of them had Wen %ay( and pawned. The unfortunate prisoner said that the tire destroyed all Hs little pmnerty, con:Us:tog of the produce of tire years' hard labour. lie and his wife were obliged to fly almost naletti into the streets, and they had been ever since without even the necessaries of life. There were some poor workmen, ton, who were injured by the lire, and to give some temporary relief to them, as well as to his own fanul v, be pawned what had been snatched from the flames. He did this with a full determination to restore the property as soon as his ii,. dostry anew more supolird him with the means. The Loan Max Oa asked whether what the prisoner had stated was tact? I: was answered, that ills fire had taken place and consumed the furniture of the prisoner, but the loss was represented as of no great importance. The LORD 3lastoa observed, that the furniture of many a man csrestituted his whole 'doe:, and was of course of the very highest ur.portatice to Mr. Connolly said the prisoner had positively pledged some of the property before the fire, and therefore had no ground of excuse for the absence of that which had been entrusted to him to finish. There was no evidence to this effect, and his Lordship remanded I the case. i dgi.trar, who was charged by the Solicitor for the Post.office with having forged the name of one of his bail, was brought up' sod discharged, the Post-office having decided against proceeding. GUILDHALL ROVIIERY BY SE BY A\ Ts.—Another lamentable instance of , that continually-recurring offence—robbery by servants upon their amid yrs—, ame under the evil:wee of 3lr. Alderman SCHOLZ I', the riming Magistrate at this Justice-room, yesterday. The prisoner, in this case, was a very fashionably dressed and ger teel looking f flung man. named BC N o la NI iIS Co A, the confidential war; houseman in the employ of Mr. J. Alarsh, wholesale glover.. Maiden-lane, Wooti.street. Some circumstances had come to Mr. Marsh's knowledge, which led him to suspect that the pri kaner wan appropriating to his own use part of the cash that necessarily came into his hands, as it seemed quite certain that his salary could not support the extravagant nature of his expenditure: an investigation into his accounts was the con sequence. and the first discos - cry was the receipt of a sun. of 21. Ific fcr n hicx he had never accounted, and which, indeed, he ac kloss !edged he had applied to his own uses Mr. Marsh having is.•:n frequently robbed by his servants, determined at last to maks an example. An officer was accordingly sent for, oho, on scarching him, found certain letters, which indicated an expensive connexion with a trail fair one, and as the presents he had made her were such as were likely to have origi. natty formed part of Mr. Marsh's stock, the prisoner's lodgings in Locden Wall were searched, Ind there no less than eight and thirty pair of French gloves of different descriptions, a pair or two of silk garters, &e— were found, all of which Mr. Marsh had no doubt had bc.n stolen from his warehouse. The depredations from his Malta' were not, it seems, sufficient to support the connexions be hat. formed, for no Irss than fourteen duplicates were found, rout"?' for wearing apparel, either el his or the female's. ,Ir. Marsh said he was compelled, in his own defence, to brinp to punishment, as he was the sixth shoptuan in succession who I.stienbbed 'toe prisoner dilating no defence, was atsprdiney remanded for examination. BATTON-GARDEN. (eatrrove—Thainas, alias .la.. Simper's alias Timothy Smith, a geed looking man, about 32 years of age, and of slender make, e.rcesed in a light fuetain frock, having the appearance of a eubli. 4.11. was brought up. charged with a variety of frauds, of the tol -1 :wing euriotte description : It a epti.at44l io es idence, that the prisoner represented himself to have purchased the Vine public-house in Kentish Town, kept for a Lag period by the respectable proprietor, Mr. Tumor. About mere weeks ago, after going to a wine and brandy merchant's in the city (whose name we could not learn). and there ordering home to Kentish 'low:, to the house he had taken, a hogshead of brandy, be went to blesses. Wollcrion and Neck. of Oxfunestreet, and or dered 11 dozen of wine ; from Mr. Burbridge, wine-merchant, of London-street, Fiteroy-square, 16 dozen of ale; from Mr. Forbee, City Chambers'. agent to the house of Remick and Co. Edinbungh, twelve dozen of ale. Determined, as the new landlord, to furbish the house with every article of comfort, he went to Mr. Paine, the celebrated soda water-maker, and ordered from him six dozen of .eider water. From a Mr. Varing, a coal-merehant in Denton-street. SXIIT7II Town, he ordered home a room of coals ; and at Mr. Mor ris's, cheesemonger in Skinner-street, Somers Town, he ordered twine six cheese", a propoitionate quantity of butter, and several other articles. The respectability of the house in Kentish Town, *here the prisoner had ordered the articles to be scot, prevented every suspicion, and away went brandy, ale, soda -water, etc. to Mr. Turner's house, without his having any expectation of such important arrivals ; not being prepared for such visitors, he sent them back to their original residences, and the denoutnent was as follows : Mr. Morris, the cheesemonger, haying privately received infs.:r ens:ion of the character of the new landlord, had hint taken into custody almost immediately after he gave the order for the articles at Cis shop. The seeming hoax was explained by its being stated 5 . 4 evidence, that when he ordered the various articles, he euntrived to procure same money where he ordered the Edinburgh ale, inde• pendently or &hiking three bot•les of it, he borrowed after quitting the office for a ear minutes 4.. 6d., from another 2s. 2d., from another es. 6d., Arc. Ills excuse after giving those orders to his Lee concerns fir his borrowing money. was, at one place fie was • little short of change to make up a hill, at another, he just wanted this price of a stamp to receive a hundred pounds. The office was crowded with complainants, who pledeed them selves to his Worship, that if the case obtained publicity, some more serious charges might be brought againet the prisoner, and he 1436 remanded until Saturday. ATTEMPT AT OPIE-ST EAL ING.—A countryman, ranted W. r:eaas, was yesterday charged with attempting to steal a horse from the stables of a Mr. Whittle, a stable-keeper at Holloeity. About twelve o'clock lost night, the primmer had gut up to the window of the stable, which was about six feet from the ground, and was getting his body through, when by aceidrnt he broke a pane of glass, which awake a man named Jones, alto was sleeping in the lift, and who immediately took the prisoner in custody.

Beech informed the Magistrate, that, as the prosecutor did not attend. he wanted a summons for him. The prisoner denied taking the halter with hint, and said that he vent to the loft to sleep only. The blagistrate granted the summons for the attendance of the yroaccutor to-day, and in the meanwhile the prisoner as.. reinended. CHE OF DISTRIBUTING SEDITIOUS PUBLI CAARGTIONS AMONGST THE SOLDIERS AT WuOL- If' ICII. On Wednesday Mr. 0. Hale, of Lambeth, formerly' shoemaker, in the Strand, was brought to the public office at Woolwich, before Sir Jon% Wrnu, Physician to the Garrison, Rev. Jon* M E BSI. T Ell, Chaplain to the Garrison, and Mr. 31wits*, door-keeper of the Royal Arsenal of Woolwich, Alagistrates acting in that di vision, for final examination, charged with submitting libellous pamphlets, entitled The Tao Opinions, to the soldiers in the Wool-1 with barracks, intending to incite them to acts of insubordination, &c. The prisoner underwent a first examination on Monday. He does not appear to be more than 30, and his dress resembled that worn by the Quakers. Ile was apprehended on Saturday, in the guard-room of the barracks. A number of privates and non-corn nussioned officers appeared to support the charge against the pri- Boner. who, it was stated. had for the last seven months been busily engaged in writing and distributing pamphlets amongst the soldiers and sailors, at all the barn.cks and ducks within 100 miles of London. About eighteen pamphlets were produced, and several bundles of similar publications, unopened, taken from the accusal on his apprehension. The bundles were marked--" Chatham," " Maid stone," " Canterbury." t•San 3 gatc," " DOICT," and " Veal." On being questioned on Monday, Mr. hale said there was nothing secret about his conduct, and he did not hesitate to admit that it was his intention to distribute the pamphlets amongst the soldiers. He said, " I have not written or published a single sentence but what is founded in the sacred truths of the Christian religion, which are to be found in the word of God. My object is, to put an end to war and bloodshed, and the slaughter of my fellow-men ; and I advise the soldiers to obey the word of God rattier than the orders of men. If they would follow my advice they would lay down their arms." Sir J. Webb told Mr. Hale Government was inclined to act towards him with lenity, and the only object was, to stop him in so illegal and dangerous a course. lie wished him (Mr. Hale) to say, whether he would desist from publishing these pamphlets if he were set at liberty. To this Mr. Hale replied— If I were set at liberty now, I would distribute them again, and am ready to answer for what I have done before any tribunal. Answer, me by arguments, and not by threats." It was stated that 30. Hale hail expended in a few mouths 2001. in bills, placards, and pamphlets. addressed to the army and navy ; that he had thrown hand-bills with his books over the barrack walls at Ken sington, Regent's Park, ace. The bill was this—" Soldiers! Listen to the voice of truth, the voice of find, ere it be too late. War is contrary to God's word and the Christ are religion." At the second examination on Wednesday, Mr. Hale was at tended by a gentleman, who conducted his defence, to whom the Magistrates expressed their thanks for his endeavours though , un successful, to persuade 31e. Hale to desist from a further distribu tion of the obnoxious pamphlets. The distribution of the pamphlets having been sworn to, Mr. May, the magistrate's clerk, said to the accused, " Thai* pamphlets you distributed to the eelliers in the garrison, Mr. Hale, did you not?" Mr. Hale's friend here prevented Mr. lisle from making the ad mission rem anxiously endeavoured to be elicited by the Worthy Justice's Clerk; and Mr. Hale, whose shrewdness and rationality upon every subject, save that upon •• War," cannot be disputed, re plied—" Gentlemen. that is an unfair question ; I have no wish to conceal any part of my conduct, but I think vou ought to prove by evidence the offence you charge me with, and nut endeavour to en trap me into admissions of my guilt." Sir J. W'r on then stated, in reply to a question from Mr. Hale, that the charge against him was, that he haul unlawfully distributed publications amongst the soldiery, calculated to excite insubordina tion and discontent in their minds, and to induce them to throw down their arms. 3lr. Hale—ln the pamphlet I have published, there is not one word but what is taken from God's word; the Bible is the founds , thin of the Christian Religion, and I can have done no more wrong then if I hail distributed the Bible amongst the soldiers. Mr. M ESSITER said, that some parts of the pamphlet werelkal cultted to do a great deal of mischief, to which Mr. Hale replied, that there was not one word in the publication but what had been preached a hundred times in different places of public worship ; and the Tracts published by the London Religious Tract Societies, inculcated similar doctrines, which Societies were under the pa tronage of some of the niort eminent men in the country for learning and piety. Sir Juin; EBB—They do not come down to this garrison and distribute their tracts to the soldiers, and endeavour to persuade them to throw down their antis. Mr. Hale—They publish winks against war and bloodshed, and are not prosecuted. Mr. May having read the pamphlet from beginning to end, Mr. 111Essi TER observed, that the most offensive passage was the following:—•• Each of you have souls, and never-dying souls too; and if you lire and die in opposition to the commandments of Christ. you are undone to all eternity ! your fellow-creatures teach and command you to hate and fight against your enemies, they by so doing are leading you on in the must wicked and wilful opposition to the holy religion which they themselves profess to be lieve in and defeed, and in a manner that must end in your own inevitable and eternal ruin ! •Ii any man bath an car, let him hear. Ile that leadeth into captivity, shall go into captivity t he that killeth with the sword, must be killed with the sword.' It is your duty, your interest, and your privilege, to obey God rather than man; and while you are fighting, or even preparing to fight against your fellow-creatures, You are acting contrary to the Chris tian religion, and disobeying the commands of the only Saviour of sinners! Whatever engagements or obligations you dray be under to your fellow-creatures, remember that will not excuse you at the last and terrible day of reckoning! It is your plain duty to obey God in preference to man ! and where God commands you to love and pray for your enemies, and your fellow-creatures teach you to hate and fight against them, it is your duty to obey God, and not man ! ' For all they that take the sword, shrill perish with the sword !' " Mr. Hale said, there was nothing in the above illegal, or that could he charged as libellous. Sir J. Wrliu ordered .Me. May to read an admission of the ac. miser, on Monday last, in which he said that his object in distribut i ing the pamphlets was to induce the soldiers to throw dormi their arms. Mr. Hale observed, that he would nor deny having made that admission, but he wished to captain his meaning. His object was to prevent war in this and in every other country where the Chris tian religion was sanctioned by the existing Government. Mi. East rEn said his notions were as absurd as the South. cistcmians, who the other day were reveling over a stuck pig; he did not question the motives or intentions of the accused, but his acts were dangerous to the Government, and must be repressed ; and he believed that he (Hale) was more tit fur Bedlam than Maid stone gaol. Mr. Hale's Friend said, that he was satisfied as to the purity of ' Mr. Hale's intentions, though he differed with him as to the pro. priety of his conduct; he, however, must confess that he could not see any thing libellous in the pamphlet which .Mr. Hale had published. MT. 31 TOM fellow, he has , got a bee in his esp. Sir Joust Wrna— lf he had pub lished such a pamphlet in any garrison In France he would have been hanged fir it. and for the sakz of his family I advise him to give bail, and do so no more. We wish to act kindly towards him, believing him to be misled. Mr. Hale's Friend—Mr. Hale has solemnly declared that lie has not acted by the advice of any other person, und, therefore, he is mistaken and not misled. Sir Joirte Wasa—lle is mistaken. I slid think he vas insti gated to do this by others, but now I believe his motives are not cnminat. Mr. Hales Friend here remarked, that all the Magistrates on the Bench had bulusitted that they did not doubt the correctness of the accused's motives in publishing the work' in question ; and tem out of the three had admitted that the work wax very harmless, and the soldiers would not pay an attention to ;he therefitre hoped they would divcharge Mr tle, for lie could not see how they could commit Mai fur " ibuting pamphlets, intending to incite the soldiers to acts of insuberdination," when they ad. Indeed that he had vo such motive, atal that they did not think such would he the effect of the publication. Sir Jolts, Wews—The intentions of Mr. [laic are nothing to us ; he had no right to enter this garrison and distribute the tracts to the soldiers. _ _ _ Mr. Hale—You are afraid to meet me before a Jury. I will not desist, but will continue to publish the divine truths of the Christian religion. notwithstanding the opposition and persecution I may meet with. _ . Mr Jou): li'res—A pretty doctrine, truly; you must not fight, even if the Prussiars, Russians, or French were to invade the country, hut tri.st only to faith in God; if a Frenchman was close behind you with his bayonets and ytm trusted only to faith, you would hnd it a fundamental error. (Laughter.) 111 r. Hale here observed, that God had promised to break the swords into ploughvhares, and the spears into priming -hooks, and that none should make his people afraid; and said, that lie was surprised that the Magistrate should ridicule the promises of God. Mr. MESS yr ER said, that Carlile boasted of leis good intentions to his fellow-men as well as the accused, and the objects of both appeared to him to be the same, viz. to weaken the power of the Goverment, by inducing the soldiers to believe they were not bound to 0) to war. Mr. Hale said, that the commands of God were to be observed in preference to all human evgagements, and as to his objee: being similar to that of Garble, as the Magistrate had stated, lie unequi vocally denied it, and boasted that I is (Tilden% and a ioht% were as opposite to these of Carlile as possible, for he (the. eccees,d wished to propagate those opinions which were founded on the Bible and on the Christian religion, which had been decided in Courts of Law to be part and parcel of the law of the land, and it was well known that Carlile denied that the Christian religion was part and parcel of the law of these realms. Ile (Mr. Hale) said he was ready to go to a prison, or he would put in bail to answer tire charge before a Jury, but nut to be of good behaviour, or, in other words, he would not en‘age not to distribute the publications in the meantime. Mr. Must:lT tr. a said, that if he (Mr. lisle) studied his own interest he would put in bail, and avoid further expense Sand trouble, and he would be permitted to remain for several days at a tavern in the custody of an officer, ti.l his bail was produced, if lie thought proper to take that course. Ur. lisle here said, that he was convinced no Jury would find hint ivilty of the offence of which he stood accosts!, and he a ould not hnd bull. ..... Ills commitment WAS then rustle out for Maidstone Gaol, for sant of sureties. _ . . The Maxisorates told hint that a for days' imprisonment might alter his tem., and he could then put in bail either in 3laidstonc, ur before Judge in London. A Dublin Journal says,—" The Rev. Mr. Focter, of Cootchill, is the gentleinau who put a period to his oilst one, a few days ago." A PAIR OF ASSAULTS. I EXTRAORDINAR Y CASE.

To avoid her, he walked down into Piccadilly, int she still followed him, with some man who accompanied her ; aid fearing personal danger from both, he gave the Lady into the Needy of a watchman, and charged her at the watchhouse. Harrington. a watchman, said, that he took charge of the lady, by direction of Mr. Gilbert, whom she attempted several times to strike, while going to the watchhouse; and that the Gentleman who was with the Linty at the time, u 3lr. Sergeantson, a wine merchant, in Pall - mall, endeavoured to rescue her ; and she her. • her - This self offered him (the watchman &sovereign to let go. ._ watchman said, that her Ladyship, whoever she was, was blind bunk at the time lr calling on the defendant for her reply to this charge, the illairixtrate asked her it he should suhlress her as Mrs. M'innington, ar Lady Winrdngton?--She replied, Lady Winnington, certainly, • issisbot Mr. Gilbert nor tine body else could deny.

The real circum. etswen, the said, which occurred on Monday night were these : Hee ekes sane time ago took a house from a Col. blonroo to whom this Mr. ( Hilbert is a sort of agent, and receives the rent. 'For some season or other they now want a pretext to turn her sister out of the Muse, as they seem to repent of the bargain they had made ; and although there is not a farthing rent due until the 25th instant, Mr. Gilbert has been threatening to take possession of the house. pa Monday morning she called on Mr. Gilbert to say that the MR would be paid on the day it became due, by Mr. :Hangnail, of Aldernurnbury, her Solicitor, and therefore not to take any steps against her sister; upon which Mr. Gilbert flew into a rage, and In the rudest wanner turned her out of the house ; and not content with this, he followed her into Piccadilly, for the purpose, as the well knew, of watching where she resided, to give her boalsond an opportunity of annoying her. Mr. Scrgeantson, • rosonionible wine-merchant, who accompanied her, on seeing that Mr. Gilbert was watching her, proposed to get int.) a coach, and by that means escape; " but (said her Ladyship) as I never get into coaches with gentlemen at night, I declined the offer." She then went tip to Mr. Gilbert, and asked him what be, meant by following her ; upon which he called a watchman, to whom he gave her in charge, and had her dragged off in a most brutal manner, and locked up in a watchhouse. A witness was now called on the part of her Ladyship, who swore that Mr. Gilbert followed her into Piccadilly, and whenever she mooed the street to avoid him, he crossed also, and seemed to annoy her very much. • The constable of the night said, that the Lady was certainly wit intoxicated, as stated by the watchman, when she came to the intehhouse.

In reply to .Mr. Puteurs's interrogations, the Lady said, she had lived seven months in the house of Mr. Askew, when, at the end of that period her salary was made 4,000 francs per annum. She received from a nobleman a letter which she locked up in the drawer, and wrapped the letter round the billets. That letter was from a nobleman, and one of the passages in it related to a buy with black eyes, and another boy with bike eyes. 3lr. Hubert called and again sworn, said, most unquestionably the letter shown him and read to Mtn by Mr. Askew, related to the boys with blue and black eyes, and was the same as described by the Lady. Mr.Gat Tr ir (to Mademoiselle Perrot)—Was the letter signed with the nobleman's name ?—No ; only the initials. Mr. Arioteu es—Aye, a noblemen signing his initials! Very pretty indeed! Mr. Puleett.s—Shew the letter; you have it in your pocket. Mr. A DOl.rm t:•—And there I intend to keep it Mr. PHIL *Ars—Then you have no right to insinuate anything. Mr. ADOLPHUS--Oh, yes; whatever I say shall clearly be proved ; aye, and home to those who conic here to swear falsely against this highly respectable man. I will ask this Lady some questions. You say, Madame Perrot, that this letter related to a boy with black, and a boy with blue eves ? 3ladamoiselle Perrot—Yee, Sir, indeed I did. Mr.ADOLPUUs—Pray who wrote this letter ?-1 won't tell you, Monsieur; I will never tell. rile. ADOLpuus—Then I contend this case cannot proceed with out this evidence. If this letter is made the handle upon which I this case is worked, most undoubtedly the fullest, clearest, fairest, and most explicitly direct evidence ought to be given us to its iden tity. Therefore, if the name is held back, some object must be iu view ; and, unless the names be proved, the letter cannot be said to be identified. Zile. Ontrrurn—l don't see that at all, Sir. It is sworn in evidence that certain things were taken front a locked drawer, and a certain document or paper is among them ; and if there are two or three persons who swear to the existence of that document, and two persons swear to having seen it in the possession of the prisoner, that is sufficient, in my opinion, to fix him with the guilty know. ledge; and most certainly if a passage or two is mentioned that sit in that paper, that is sufficient identity of the paper. Mr. AvoLeu es—l contend, Sir, they are obliged to prove the letter carne front an individual, and also not only that individual's name, but all about him, and also to prove every syllable of the document before it can be received in evideitee. This may be a mere invention—no such Noblemen never did exist; and 1 say the letter we have is in effect different from what it is sworn to be. Me. Gm ITPITH—We have nothing to do with the writer of the letter; we have to regard it osly u a paper wrapped round certain property, which, from a sentence a mien in it, can be identified, and is traced to the primary. At common law they are not üblig to prove its contents. HA member the titan is charged with stealing property wrapped up in that letter or paper. 1 again do certainly state my minion to be, that she is not obliged to give up the name of the writer. . . . . 111 r. ADOLPHCS—WeII, well, that, Sir, is your opinion, and I ' wont contend on so slight a point. Pray, Madam. may I ask you whose boy is it that is alluded to in this document ? I'lladamoiselle Perot—That, I say, has nothing to do with it, and I wont tell you, Sir. Mr. (latrirtru—l think so too. I say again we hare only to' identify the paper, and if it be traced I ant satisfied. Mr. Anot.rtius (warnilyl—lt cannot be nicotined unless all the particulars arc stated. I can prove all this to be a tissue of falsehood and fraud. Mr. 6111 Fr ITII again repeated his opinion, observing. certainly he might, if tie pleased, ask a. to the contents if she dose to answer them. . . Mr. A DOLPH t•s--I hare • right to ask whether the child de scribed in this letter is . _ ..... Mr. Pit ILL' Yi-Why, upon my word, my Learned Friend does trot proceed with much delicacy. What gcod, 1 say, can he derive Irma diving into love-letter secrets Mr. Alio t.Pfi VS—There you too are mistaken. It is any thing but a love letter. ..... Mr. l'itit.t.tos—lt is a great pity this letter is not produced. Mr. ADOLPIII.II—No pity at nll. The L:•arncd Gentleman then again endeavoured to persuade the lady to give up the name by sonic ingenious questions, but failed. Mr. PHILLIPS—I now understand the Magistrate to decide against your putting those questions. Therefore I submit I have made out a prima facie case against the man of capital felony, hating proved the money to have been placed in her possession, put by her in a drawer, stolen from that drawer; and the letter, wrapped round the notes is traced to the prisoner subseque.ftly. Therefore I have only now to ask you, Sir, whether it is necessary for me to go on. Mr. 'knot-mitts (latighing)--Go on; that is as you please; but do not verify the old adage. Mr. Lit.s Ifs (angrily)—The letter, you know, is in Askew's custody. Mr. Aoot.rnt•s-_I know the very reverse, as it is at present in my breeches pocket (loud laughter) ; and I will ask the Magistrate whether this is really a case against this gentleman oT not Mr. heir vin it said, for his oun satisfaction, he should with to have it earned further. Mr. Pit i.i.trs then called Timothy Lanigan, who said he was sent to pick a luck in 3lr. Askew's house; he bell:yeti the luck belonged to a drawer. Mere the witness commenced the operation of scratching his head.) 31r. PHtti.iis, with great energy, exclaimed, " Don't scratch your head here, man." Lanigan-1 ant not scratching my head now. Aye, you won't frighten me, ao you need not try. In continuation, he would not speak positively as to what kind of drawer he orencd, declaring UNION HALL.

CORONERS" INQUESTS. An Inquest was yesterday held at the sign of the Unicorn Covent-garden, before T. 8100 S, Esq. on the body of the un known youth, who was found in a dying state under the portico of St. Paul's Church, Covent-garden. Thomas Stevens, of Bedford-court,Covent-garden,stated, that on Wednesday morning last, as he was passing the Church he saw a crowd collected under the east portico of the church ' • the deceased was lying with his AAA! on his hat ; he was alive and sensible, but appeared dangerously ill ; the deceased was questioned as to where he lived' He answered, he had no home; he did not complain of ill. usage. 'Witness went to the watch house ( to which place the young man was subsequently removed), and afterwards went for Mr. Bamfylde, the parish surgeon, who was not then at home ; he was desired by Mr. nuett, holding a situation in the parish, to obtain any me. dical assistance; Mr. Barrett, the watch-house-keeper, in the mean time, met Mr. Bamfvlde, who promptly attended, anti ordered some weak brandy and Water ; the deceased had been previously supplied with a little tea by Mrs. Barrett. Mr. R. W. Itatotylile, surgeon, of Bedford -street, deposed, be saw the deceased about half-past ten o'clock on Wednesday morn ing at the watch.house • he found all pulsation had ceased, his skin was generally cold , he should hare considereilliim dead, but that he felt him breathe; be understood the deceased had the bowel complaint, and brought medicine which he administered to him in tea spoonfuls, also some hot brandy and water, which he took with hTeat difficulty. Witness ordered some blankets to be warmed, in which he was wrapped up and carried up stairs to bed ; be like.. wise had bottles of warm water applied to his feet, but no pulse. don returned. Witness had no hopes of recovering him the instant he saw him. The deceased died about one o'clock. lie is confi dent it was not from starvation, but the bowel complaint, which is very prevalent at this season. There were no marks of violence; he had not examined the body since •;,, nth ; he appeared to be about sixteen years of age. The Jury considered that the body ought to be examined, to which witness readily assented ; and, on his return gave his opinion that the deceased died from the effects of the bowel complaint, and not from starvation. He appeared to have been a strong muscular young man, and no marks of violence were visible on the body. Edward Edwards stated, that he saw the hoy lying under the portico, and mentioned the circumstance to Mrs. Barrett, and as. sided in carrying him to the watchtiouse. Ile questioned the de ceased as to his place of residence, who said he had none, nor any ' friends, and declined giving his name. Witness saw nothing thrown at him, but observed some potatoes near him. Nothing was found on him but a razor, and some white powder in a tin case: this latter article was examined, but it contained nothing of a poisonous nature. _ . . The Jury were satisfied upon the evidence produced, that the deceased '• Died by the visitation of tied," and returned a verdict to that effect. An inquest was held on Tuesday, by a respectable Jury assem bled at the Phuinix inn, fur the purpose of inquiring into the cause of the sudden death of Samuel Porter, who was an impute of . Gray's Alms House, and whose decease was supposed to be at tended with rather mysterious circumstances. It appeared that the deceased waste years of age, and in the habit of drinking hard; that on Saturday night last he jetumed home to his apartments, in the above Alms House, inst Kate of intoxication, and on the fol. lowing morning was found by a woman, who brought him some clean linen, in a state of Several witnesses proved that the deceased was in possession of some miner previous to this, which he had reserved to pay for a decent funeral, or the expenses attendant on a lingering illness. fhe followin g it was discovered that this little property had been removed from the box which contained It ; and as a man named Thomas Paul was known to be on very intimate tcrnis with the deceased, suspicion fell upon I • as the purloiner, it having been ascertained that the deceased was accompanied home by him on Friday night. and that, subsequently to his illness, Paul had visited him. It further appeared that he was in the habit or borrowing money at did Brent thorn from the old man, and at the time of his death he owed hint 11. its. for which deceased had received some waistcoat pieces and pension papers as a pledge that the money should be returned to him. Pawl had been seen on oattirday with an unusual quantity of silver, fur the possession of which he could give no satisfactory account ; this led the Jury to believe that he alone must have committed the robbery, and in consequence of other suspicious circumstances. Paul was, at the Intimation of the Coroner, detained in custody until such evidence could be adduced as would clear his character. . . l'he Jury were perfectly satisfied that the deceased came by his death through the decay of nature. in which opinion the, were borne out by the satisfactory evidence of )Ir. Charles Welch, surgeon. who staled that he perceived nit indication■ on the body which could him to presume that siolence had been inflicted. The Jury, after a very patient investigation. which lasted from half-past two tc.til near nine at night. returned a verdict that the deems " Died through the visitation of find.".—Taunton A Coroner's Inquest was held on Satunlay last, at Lower Nun- I nington, in the paroh of klilverton, Somersetshire un the body of I a man named (Clover, who died shindy after taking a mixture of Epsom salts. It was imagined that the salts had been put into a bottle which had previously contained some poisonous mixture, and evidence to that effiet au given, but no poison could be traced in the stomach. The Jury 'mimed a verdict, ' 6 That the deceased died from his having taken into his stomach sonic poisonous !intuit, or other poisonous thing; but what the liguid, or other poisonous thing, consisted of, or by wbont admintatered, no evidence thereof ap. pealed." he could Dot recollect, lie bcliereg it was in the I..int sh op ; ,„ i could not say ;he was there only once; was never i sian , thinks the drswer he upend was • drawer 'litre but key,acrd The whin:A contradicted himself repeatedly, although ed unintentionally, as he was in such a state of nervous app 1 from the energetic examination of hit.

She also aired a letter from Mr. Askew. The letter was addresul t Mademoiselle Perrot to read, as he could not read Fiala; th : letter was in that language; this was about a fortnight ago. sa c remembers having seen some rings, with raised busts, which she I was informed belonged to Mr. Bertrand. They were not diamond s , but were little brilliants. The initials to the letur mho believed were with blue and V., and was about a boy with bl ac k eyes, se t t a N I eyes. Mr. Anot.r/u•—NoW, young lady, is this the passage y oa laded so—" Asp/ have got a boy with black eyes, which roe lay is as like his 1~ as two INNS, and as I have blue eyes, wo rl d advlasjon a look outfor a figher with black eye s foe him." ()tuck Lug tae Witness—Aye, yew that was it I declare. A very amiable and Interesting young lady, named Unit, who is in Mr. Askew's house, was called, but merely proved. in at4Vel to some questions, that she had heard the contents of the drawer were trinkets of value. She had seen with Mademoiselle Perot a cornelian ring and coral ear-rirg. She had heard, in Mr. Agnes presence, of a letter which he had also heard was in the drawer. M r. Pus ar.e rs then commenced observing upon the evidence, seal having detailed minutely all the facts, called upon the Magistrate to commit the prisoner to Newgate. Mr. Annum us, in reply, said there was no ease against lira that could warrant the Magistrate in commitfing hint for trial Was It to be borne that a man like Mr. Askew, surrounded arid situated amid honour, trade, and most affluent circurnstancea, w as to be dragged from his borne on the evidence, he could fast / one of the most wretched, base, and profligate of mankind? If he had committed this robbery, was it likely that he would havesLowo that paper to the woman s attorney—a paper which he Saw Ta u document that would prove domnatory, and the hest evidence of his guilt ? No man on earth could believe such a thing. Th e Sessions were now sitting, and let them, as they might hare done, take their witnesses there; and the only thing which he knew tiny would receive there would be contempt and derision, the sane which be now treated the case with. The letter was de scribed a funny letter ; yet he could not see how funny it en to have a bastard child, anti to fix upon a person, a noblemae too./ the father of it, and that seemingly denied. It was afloat n Nay as the story in Fielding's novel of the man, boasting of his sums., being wen through the body at the tame moment. He again re. patted that the Magistrate could not mod this respectable man for trial on evidence of that miserable woman, who was only seeking for a poor, but to her a great, triumph—that of committing an honest and highly respectable commercial ci,isen to Ncwgate, rem testimony as scanty as it was loose and insuf fi cient. Mr. Put cke es, m reply, asked why was not the letter produrat If it was not to be produced, why dui this •honest tradesman en. blushingly admit hating it? How came he by it ? If properly, why did he not explain ? And why (said the Learned Gcritleroci did he add cowardice to robbery, awed basely traduce a poor, weal, friendless foreign WOMAN who had placed herself io his house * protection, anti who had proved herself so trustworthy. that in lit!: more than six months the men bad doubled her salary??

The ease ea • clear one, and he called upon the Magistrate to protect the post foreigner, who bad thrown herself upon the hospitality of the coon. try, committing this rich man for trial, from which ordeal, if net guilty, he would cane out with an honourable acquittal; butt' guilty, would only come out to meet his jug and waited pen*. went. /dr. ADOLPIII:11 asked the Magistrate to put hls inttiilt op et letter. 1-- Mr. Gator iris indignantly refused, observing, "I en sorry you have done this. What ! ask me to certify a paper I tan aro seen?" Mr. Anottmus-4 am not sorry at all for asking this, al wish to show at the trial that this is the paper we have prodoced. Mr. GRIIrrITut refused to sign it, and was about messing the whole of the facts of the ease, when another contention arose be tween the Counsel, Mr. Pwar.Lips observing that they were afraid to produce the letter, which ads denied, and Mr. Anotrans be that he might not be bullied. r. l l'uttiotPs—" Oh, God forbid!" The Learned Gold& man then compared some remarks of his Learned Friend's, relative to tiling the child upon a nobleman, who denied being die fisher because of the difference of colour in the eyes, to an Irishman who, having a wooden leg, refused to allow himself to be called father, because the child had not a wooden leg. Mr. Gomm x having read and remarked upon the evidence, and observed upon every circumstance of the case, said, that rev. tainly, under all the circumstances of it, he was bound to belie" it so far proved, and therefore lie must commit Mr. Askew to !sew gate for trial. lie was convinced that the lady must have had the things, and have left them locked in the drawer, from the catalogs* she produced, which was written lung before anything of this wo contemplated. The witnesses were bound over to prosecua, and Mr. Askew taken to Newgste. COACH ACCIDENT.—Many of our readers will toe beard of the distressing accident which occurred le the neighbourhood of Buxton, on Friday, the 3d instant, in consequence of the overthrow of the Royal Buxton coach, the same vehicle which was upset about ten days re viously, on its way from Manchester. Among the fin' singers who were injured were Mrs. Harvey, theda4htee of the late Mr. Cummins, of this Theatre, who, it will be remembered, suddenly fell down on the stage, and imme diately expired. Being thus unable to fulfil an mmage• ment Into which she entered with' the Manager of the Buxton Theatre, she is now reduced, along with tw o infant children, to the most abject want and misery. A este ment was circulated from Sir Francis Darwin, 31• D., and Mr. Skinner, surgeon, from which it appeared that the bone of 3lrs. Harvey's right was broken, snd that she had sustained several contusions and wounds. Fortunately Mr. Henry Johnston, the well-known performer, happened to be in Buxton at the time, and with a spirit of the most commendable sympathy he immediately set about raising a subscription for the unfortunate lady ; and we are happy to say, with a degree of success that reflects the higbeit credit on the benevolence of the visitors at Buxton. In the course of three or four days the munificent sum of 112/. 14s. was obtained at the different hotels, &e. fhe circumstances of the case were mentioned to tby Pule m Devonshire, who happened to visit Buxton for s f;se hours on Monday ; and, with his usual spirit of benevolence, ba. instantly preamited Mr. Johnston with led. for the relief et Mrs. Ilarvey.—Preisi nein, Paper.
