The piece was shorn and a sepa ration appeared marked for the acissus on the piece, thoug h a no se verance, and they were charged to the vendor by the m er as so many liandkerchitis, and nut by the piece, although in the shop they are called a piece. The Learned Judge desired the cause to proceed. The mi. soners were seirAsl at the shop window, and one of them dropped the piece of handkerchief, which had been taken through a cut pane of glass. They had been previously watched by an opposite neighbour. who saw them go away from, and return to the shop, and finally assisted with a Police officer in securing them, to whom they were no strangers. A crooked wire was discovered on the person of Knib well, calculated fordrawing anything out of a window. rite prisoners denied any knowledge of each other; one witness gave reams a good character. The Junta, in summing up, admitted the validity of the first objection, and lied no doubt but the prisoners stole a piece of silk handkerchiefs, which being the joint property of the prosecutun, submitted the prisoners to conviction. '1 he question on the point of law, whether the handkerehiels had been properly described In the indictment, must be a subject for further consideration. Ver dict, Giii/to against hoth.—Judgment respited. Mary srMr/: cons indicted tar stealing several articles of wear ing apparel, the property of Janie* Walker, a cabinet.maker, from his lodgiogs. The articles were traced to her possession, and were valued At 3/., as the prosecutor said they could not be replac ed for that soot ; a pawnbroker had lent Ws. upon them. The prisoner said the things had been given to her by a young man in Fleet Market.—Guilty of stealing underths. which sous the capital offence. (Rlfure the RErossea.) THE NEW COURT. This morning, after so many delays, the New Criminal Court, in the Old Bailey, was opened in duetfocin, by the Recorder of London, Metals, several Aldermen, and City Officers, at nine o'clock. The Al Wiliest: Jury being sworn in, the prisoners were I arraigned, and the Court proceeded to trial. William Bank, was indicted for stealing from the person of John Morris, a silk handkerchief, his property. The case was fully proved spinet him, and the Jury found him Griliy. Joins Cramer, who with his wife, stood intlicsel for stealing a clock and other property, belonging to Thomas Mahon, in the April Sessions, was put to the bar. The property yea sworn to be beyond the value or efts. and the witnesses having clearly proved the case against him the Jury found him Gui/40--Deoth. In the evening the london Jury were suirinioned to attend at five o'clock; according to this arrangement, two for Middlesex and two for London, will be doing business at the same time, which will shorten the Sessions amsuderably. MIDDLESEX MISSIONS, THURSDAY, Juxz 3. Yesterday being Appeal I/ay, the Court were occupied th greater part of the time in hearing appeals as to settlements, and which were only so far of public interest, as tiwy tended to shew the grievous expense at which this species of litigation is frequently maintained. . JONES against SUTTON. This was an application to the Court tor the disaolution of an in denturvof apprenticeship, on the ground of misbehaviour and neg. feet of duty on the part of the apprentice. It appeared that Mr:Sutton had been articled to the appellant, Mr. Jones, surgron, of Prince's -street, for a period of six years, of which time lie had served tour years ; during the latter part of which he had frequently stopped out later at night than Mr. Jones permitted ; and he had also, in sonic instances, absented himsdf an entire day, without permission. Me. Ais I.Er, for the apprentice, stated, that • premium of 1701. had been paid with the youth, on his being bound ; but that they would be willing to cancel the indenture, if a proportionate pan were returned. Mr. A DOLPH tts, for his client, would isot consent to the return of a farthing. The Cot: RT ultimately thought that, although the conduct of the apprentice had been very rtqwehensible, yet it would be too se. vere a punishment to cancel the indenture ; but lithe conduct complained of were repeated, the fact of the present appeal would he borne in ld by the Court in giving its judgment then, if , called on. TURNPIKE TIMIS. FELIX WENN, AGAINST A CONVICTION OF THON•S HALLS, !SU. . . This was an appeal from • conviction at llow.strect, In which the appellant was tined 51. for having taken a toll of aid. from 31r. lireenway, notwithstanding; the production of a ticitet clearing the gate. Thomas lireensay swore to having, on the sth of April, passed through the liammerantith gate in a taxed can, for which he paid 34iL to the appeUaiii, and received a ticket. On returning through the same pie In the evening, the appellant demanded the toll of hint, on which he showed him the mitts lie had received in the morning. notwithstanding which he refused to let hint pass without praying 1114. 111 r. A 1. i.cy, for the appellant, argued, that either Oreenway was the informer, or he was not. it lie was the informer, his evidence was inadmissible ; if he was not, there was no case against his client, as the Act required there should be an informer, inasmuch ea it hail specially directed a moiety of the penalty to go to the informer.

Bell's system, wi.s held at t h e Gei.tral School, Bolds in'a Gardens. We noticed among the Company, his Grace the Archbishop of t'anterbury, the Bishop of London, the Archbishop of York. the Bishops of Exeter, Wor cester, Gloucester, ()Mord, Lord Caltliorpe, lord Bolton. Bean of \Worcester, Rev. Dr. Inglis, Archdeacon Aldershaw, Rev. Dr. Wordsworth, Rev. Dr. Ileresford, Lieutenant-General Thornton, Joshua Watson, Esq. Rev. Dr. IValnisley, and several other per , sons of distinct jot,. ..... Hi, time the Archbishop of Canurbury being called to the Chair— . • • • • 1 , WALMSLET, the Secretary, read the report, which stated that the must important feature to which the General Com. titter had to refer, was the special favour conferred on the National Society by his Majesty's Government, in the grant of a Royal better, addressed through the Archbishops of the Provinces to the parochial clergy, directing them to ',remote contributions throughout their parishes, In aid of the Society's funds. In the last annual report they had occasion to advert to the exhausted state of the funds, and pledged themselves to consider the most effectual remedy of renewing them. In par suance of this, on the24th of June last, they petitioned his Majesty to grant a Royal better, for the elsivementemed purpoise, having two objects in view by preferring this course; the one that under the sanction of such high authority, the more ample renovation of their leads might be effected ; and the other by exciting the attention of the clergy to the blessings of education. His Majesty immedi. ate!) , granted the prayer of their petition. and already 27,311 W. 13s. Id. had been paid into the hands of the Treasurer; and the coniiiiitt^e, through th . powerful inhlui !Ice. had in their possession a fund almost half as large as that whie!i has constituted their entire expenditure from the first institution of the Society to the present time; and they anticipated the happiest results to the great cause of national education. The Central school, under the able super. inteedence of the Roe. Dr. Johnson and Mr. Morgan, exhibits in both departments the successful practice of the national system. The number of children In the schools was 232 boys and 164 glebe. They have been examined once every half year. The num ber of schools assisted in the last year by permanent masters and mistresses, amounts to M. Mr s. Morgan, the present Mitres' of the school, has expressed her desire to resign the situation, and Mrs. Johnson has been induced to accept it. The number of schools united to the National Society, during the last year, was ilfs and the oral *Limn ot to 1,083. Upon a moderate adculition, the whole number of children at present under instruction in this kingdom noisome' to 297.000, independent of the number in schools not limited, but following the plan of the nuciety, which has generally been estimated at 50.000. It is the intention of the Society to establish a school in the neighbourhood of Mary-ls bonne, to educate 498 boys and 209 girls, and a liberal subscrip tion is anticipated, for the annual support of the school ; and In support of this laudable ohje;t the Committee have granted a donation of 500/. (Siker donations have been voted of consider able magnitude by the Society-, and at Newcastle It is proposed to establish a school for the education of two hundred and fifty boys, and an equal number of Girls, at a cost of 1.4001. for the requisite buildings, and the inhabitants provided 970/., and the Committee had great satisfaction in adding from the funds a grant of 300/. At Fiume, in somersetshire, where there is a population of 12,000 persons, • plan was formed for erecting spacious ruonis sufficient to admit 3400 boys and 300 girls, the estimated cost being stated at nearly 1,1001. of which about 53W. was raised by exertions amongst the inhabitants, and a grant of 2501. by the Society. A grant of 2331. had been made to Brighton, Whiteharen, Chorley in Limashire,&e. Similar grants were made to promote the Soden 's plan of education, and duringthelast year have varied from M. to 5001. according to the exigency of each cue. The number of places assisted by grants amounts to 67. The progress of the national system in foreign peed dencies is very extensive. The Committee have received highly interesting reports from Bombay and New Brunswick. At the former place several schools are established, under the liberal pa tronage of the highest authorities, and 1100 children, 100 of whom are natives, are receiving instruction ; and the various schools contain 3,400 children. '1 he Committee felt great satisfaction in hearing that schools upon the National system were to be imme diately established, in connexion with the new churches, as there was a great deficiency in point of church-roan. The Report con. eluded by showing the considerable good done by the Society, which, although highly gratifying, it would be too voluminous for us to detail. It met with great approbation. At the conclusion of the Report, His (Dace the Archbishop of CANTERBURY rose to move that the Report be printed and circulated, and, in an able speech, dwelt Isgeo_the advantages of the Institution, which was calculated to Weed considerable benefit to the poor, a ndi he urged a continuation of its support. The motion was seconded and carried unanimously. General THORNTQN here rose to make a motion, which he con ceived would tend to great advantage tos aids the children educated by the Society. He could nut but concur with the Report in every respect, especially that part which alluded to the Royal Letter ; but he was of opinion, that if the Society could couple industry with education, it would be most desirable ; and he regretted that it had not ere this beim introduced into the Schools. One hundred years ago, it appeased that reading, writing, and arithmetic were es of education, by which individuals could get subsistence but now they had be come so common, that it was necesrary thal something else should be resorted to, to snake money, and by in. traducing some mode of industry into the schools, the children en leaving them mielot be enabled to work at trades, &c. to procure • living, and would have the effect of preventing that juvenile depts. sky which frequently . existed when the mind of youth was unease pied ; fur instance, 'af the boys and Oils were instructed to make their own clothes, husbandry, and tilling, or other manual em ployments, it would have the effect of lessening the expendi ture of the Society, as' tradesmen who expected premiums from the Society with apprentices, would be glad to take them with the knowledge of their traOss. From his connexion with the army for a number of years, he was aware that tailors and shoemakers re ceived considerable advantages, and at their leisure hours were fre quently employed. lie made several other observations, and moved a resolution, that boys tend girls should be Instructe d industry, &c. His GRACE Meted with the last speaker, that the plan of the Society was at all calculated to give room for depravity. It had proved to the contrary by the exemplary conduct of those individuals who left the Schools, anti he considered that the proper place for the motion would be after the usual business had been gone through. The Bishop of EXETER intimated, as a proof of the excellence of the Society's mode of education, that not one of the scholars educated under the system had been brought to justice. (Aimlause.) The (IF:NERAL remarked that be merely noticed the thing as an omission, which, if obviated, might prove useful to society. Lord Cat.mion re addressed the meeting in • short speech. J. Drisveor, Esq read the annual account of the Society, with the expenditure; and various parts elicited the warmest ap plause. Thanks were then voted to the Chairman, who returned thanks. Thanks were also voted to Drs. Bell, Walmsley, and J. Watson, Esq., and after a short discussion upon General Thornton's motion, which was negatived, the meeting broke up. SHIPPING INTELLIGENCE.

It appeared that the deceased had for the Ilt?It eight years been subject to occasional fits of insanity, which rendered it necessary that she should be constantly attended. The female employed for this purpose had on Tuesday left her walking in the garden, while she went out on some occasion, desiring the servants to keel) an eye upon her. The deceased, however, contrived to elude the °biter's. tion of the servants, and taking with her a mastiff, which she loos. cned from iw fastenings, she retired to the stable, and there sus pended herself to one of the rack staves. The servants shortly alter missing her, commenced a search, when one of them found her hanging in the stable, with her feet within two inches of the ground. She was immediately cut down, and surgical assistance obtained, but without avail—Verdict, SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. EPSOM RACES, 1824. ' I ',Town DAY, Tltt ItSDAY. it SE 3.
