Yesterday a man named Cordell, who occasionally works se a porter, was brought before the LOAD Melon on a charge of hay. mg committed an oftensive robbery in a house in Old Broad. street. The house which wu rubbed is one that is let out in offices and apartments to commercial gentlenien. A female who has the cue of the house stated, that the hallaloor is kept open for the convenience of the occupants. (In Friday evening she was busy in the kitchen a little after dusk, when • man suddenly entered with • huge bundle in his arms. He seemed surprised at soling her, but Immediately asked which was the street door, saying, that as the lamp was not lighted he had mis taken his way. She supposed at the time that he belonged to one of the lodger' and told hint he had come down • flight of stairs too much. The thief upon this infurniation went out, and got clear off' with his bundle. She soon after discovered that her own room had been entered, and stripped of all her best wearing ap parel, and that. an apartment belonging to a foreign gentleman, who Is at present nut of town, had been broken open , and robbed of • gold watch, and sonic articles of property, she feared to a very large amount. She immediately gave Brady, the officer, a de. scription of the person who came down Into the kitchen, and she firmly believes the prisoner was the same inan. Brady rutted, that from the exact description given by the last witness, he apprehended the prisoner, who prevaricated very much , in the account which lie gave of the manner in which lie passed the previous evening. The Loam Mayon asked him whether he was not before him on • former occasion, for having been found in an awkward situation ? The prisoner did not recollect such a cite ttttt stance ; but on re. freeing to the books, it appeaml that lie had linen sent to the tread. mill for two months, having been round in a house with the inten tion of stealing. l'he Loan Alia°a remanded him, that scarch might be made for the property. 114)1P-S1 . 11EET. Jo /in Donnell and Jeremiah Oilett, two patrols of St. Martin's parish, were charged with an assault On Mr. lirinze, the landlord of the Star and Garter, St. Alartin's.lane. The two defendants were pluming the complainant's house on Saturday night, and sup , posing they heard a noise, rushed into the house and demanded I the reason of it, and not receiving a satisfactory answer, they seized the landlord by the collar, saying, they had authority so to do from the Magistrates ; and dragged liini before the night constable, who refossil in detain hits, he being a very respectable householder. Mr. Itrinre's shirt was torn, and his anti was black from the effects of their blows. To substantiate his charge Mr. B. called a number of persons, who proved that he gave no provocation. Mr. 14111 CD, the solicitor. called the attention of the Magistrates to the fact, that the two defendants had cloaked their conduct under the idea that the Magistrates had directed them to take the land. lord into custody for having a disnrdoly house. The patrols denied the charge as regarded the assault, but at. tempted to justify the taking into custody, upon the ground of the, Alaostratesorder,. Sir Ricitaan IiIRNIE denied that any such orders had been given, and to make an example of thane he vistaed Mr. Isaacs to lindict them whilst the Sessions were sitting. 3/r. Isaacs expressed his determination so to do. 31A It I.lloli OUGII-S T It I:ET. A few days ago a Gentleman or very respectable and venerable appearance, shout fifty years of s te, &cued in black, and wearing powder in his hair, whose profession, under the present CirCUOI. stance% It is impossible to guess at, came to this ()nice, and applied to Mr. CON•I4T, the Sitting Magistrate, for his advice and as.. alliance to recover • AI. note, of which he stated himself to have been robbed in the following manner : Ile said that about eight o'clock on the evening before, as he wait sauntering along Oxfmil-street, he was accosted by a poor girl, who said she had not a farthing in the.world to help herself with. Feeling fur the unhappy girl's situation, he consented to accompany her to some house, where she said slur could be comfurtcd and re lieved at a trilling expense to him. [laving arrived at the house in question, himself anti his companion were sheen into an apartment very respectably furnished j but he had not been above • quarter of an hour in the room, when, all on a sadden, lie found, as if by magic, his fob turned inside snit, and a W. note and a shilling, which he had therein, vanished therefroni. 31easuro were taken by the land. lady in his presence, but no trace of the Ll. note was etude, and lie was ultimately obliged to quit the hone without recovering it. An officer was despatched for the landlady of the house, No. 23, Sheppard -street, Itund-street, and In a few minutes a very fashion. ably-dressed female made her appearance at the office; and on the Magistrate's relating to her the circumstances stated by the com plainant, and bin charge or suspicion against her, she related, In the gentleman's preneher, her version of the transaction , and added, that the gentleman had the girl's name and address, (or he took it 'town most carefully in his pocket-book. Mr. en NAM? naked the gentleman if this were trite. Ile said It 1 was, and pulling out his pocket-lank, and deliberately turning over the leaves, he read, '• Mary Thompson, 8. IVynyard-street •" but he said that he was quite sure the girl had not the note, and this charge was agaii.st the landlady only, whom be believed to have found the note and kept it. The Magistrate having now made preparation to take down the complainant's deposition, asked, in the usual manner, as a preli minary, his name and address. These the gentleman refused to give; but after some hesitation, he said his residence was in Kart, and wished to have the chuffed dismissed. Mr. Cox•K r replied, he had a charge of felony before him, which must be investigated ; but said the gentleman might retire into the private room, and write tits name and address, which. if he refused to do, the Magistrate said he would commit him. In. stead of writing his name, however, die gentian= Mimed a lie. t«, •••••setti 1b... pare, en the Magistrate, which, when linialud,, he was about to attach a signature to, but suddenly starting from his seat, he exclaimed, I cgtinot sign a false DIM j and 1 twist not-1 dare nut sign my own"--and dashing the pen upon the potind, he paced the room in the greatest agitation. The letter, in this unauthenticated inate, was taken by Plank to Mr. Conan!, alto, after perusing it very attentively, evidently with some @win iso, retired into the private room, and for some time held a conversation with the writer. ' Mr. l'offaer again took his seat upon the bench, and said be would receive the gentleman's word to appear on Tuesday. This promise the mysterious gentleman gave, but on the ap pointed day be did not appear, and the case was adjourned till Friday, when the charge was altogether &rationed. Thus has this gentleman, by the violation of his word of honour, most likely been the means of preventing a simile indulgence by Magistrates in future. UNION HALL. Notts]: lirwat.l wo.— Three men, named Dillon, Gksister, and Moon, were charged on suspicion with having stolen a dark brown horse, about 134 hands high. The prisoners were apprehended in lient,itreet, one of them nding the horse. the fellow who was on horseback when the constable first saw them, in reply to the Magistrate's question, •, Where did you yrt the horse!" said, as he was welktog along Charing-crap on Sunday, a genteelish Lind of a chap came up to him, and said, that he would give him lid. if he would take the horse over to the lleilf.way Houle in the Keut-road and leave him there. lie was, he said, proceeding to that place, when the constable, in a very engenterl kind of a way, came up and frightened the animal, which ran away with hint, and he was tossed orl'his back in the kennel; when the constable, not satisfied with this, mounted the horse him self and rode away, leaving hint (the prisoner) in the hands of a Charley. for horae.atealing. At the conelutlim of this eloquent de fence, Dillon declared that he and his ffielllit were IS innocent as babes unborn. • 'rite ddaemonte directed Mr. Staples, thr clerk, to advertise the horse. and remanded the prisoners until an owner is found to prose cute them. TOWN iiAL4 MACADAIIIIINO.—The unlimited demand at present for la. ',wirers to break up the granite for the purpose of Alacadamizing, and the consequent veer made to the diTcrent partaltes by Mr. M•Atiani, to furnish employment for all the paupers capable of work that they might choose to send him, seems to be looked upon by the parish officers getterally as a sort of windfall, of which they cannot make too much ; and it is now pretty F entially the practice, if a pauper applies fur relief, instead of furnishing him with pecu niary assistance, to set him up with a hammer or two• and drspatch hint with an order to Mr.:ll•Adam ; and they hating thus found hint employ mcnt, is considered as • good reason for refusing all further relief. That this is door somewhat too indiscriminately will appear pretty evident, front the fidlowing case, which occurred yesterday before the sitting Magistrate, Mr. Alderman J. J. Sl4llll : A poor old fellow, 1111111(41i Thomas Murray, apparently between fA and 70 years of age, applied fur the interference of the 3lagistrate to compel the parish of of St. Olave'a to relii.re hint and his family. Ile had applied to them this moriting, and they re fused to do anything fur hint. lie was himself not of employ he had a wife and three children -one of them an in arms, which consequently prevented his wife front being able to do anything to assist lout. Th. Alderman asked Little, the beadle of St. there's, •ho was present. whether there was any question as to the settlement of the family being with their parish Little iephod, that there was no doubt that he belonged to them, but their I/veneers had obtained work for hint at breaking quota line Aluendarnizing the mails. and had furnished him with 9, to buy ban:titers, but instead of baying the hammers and going, to work, lie had appropriated the money to his own use; and having found him employment, the °veneers considered they %ere tint bound to relieve him bother.

I mails inquiry at the place. and found that the insist I could possibly earn at star e•bteaking wa* not more than 6s. a-week. Is not that true, Mr. Lillie? The beadle allowed that 65. was t h e utmost a man of Murray's age and strength would be able to earn. k And 610 e ',dinned Murray, •• tint being enough of itself in s eep me and nay favaly. l thought it would be beat to I , y and LAI little fruit, and it and of buying lin 11111 l ers, your Worship, I bought a *VI !WS.

Little allowed that the pauper had not squandered away the mo ney. but that it had barn applied in support of his wile and family. Mr. Alderman ll—This man and his family must not be mattered to perish. There is nu ground fur refusing to where him.

Can !outset nothing to do, Murray, in the way of employment ? Murray replied, lie was only a ',Maurer; bit if the pans,' wculd allow I a shilling ii-day, with whit occasional jobs be might get, he would try to make it do.

MELANCHOLY CAnuntoPfill, AT lIALTON, NSA& WICSDOTAII, AUCZII, IQ A TASTY 'BON VKLVET TAWS. Morn the Bucks Chronic* of listarday.) An event of a most distressing nature, which has spread a deep concern around the neighbourhood, occurred on l'huroley evening last, in the wide part of the Wand Junction Canal, on Halton Moor, within a mile of Wendover, near Aylesbury. A WV, consisting of six persons, chiefly inhabitants of Tying (five females and a ening man) had engaged • boat to convey them from that place to Wendover, from whence they proceeded to that ntuch.frequented spot, Velvet Lawn, to spend the duty. On their return in the evening, and when they had proceeded about a mile from Wendover the boat upset, and two of the females (Miss Lydia Butcher, of Tring, and Alias Martha Allen, of Leighton. Buzzard) were unfortunateTyedrowned. The ladies were found, one about an hour, and the other about two hours afterwards. They were con. ferra t es exp. f itiously as possible, to the house of Mr. Wm. Reed, near the Reservoir, in the parish of Wendovcr, where every means was re 4011, 0010, 'without effect, to restore animation. Too utuelf cannot be said in praise of isir J. D. King, who was on the spot Immediately after the fatal occurrence, and who conti. rued using every exertion both fur the recovery of the deceased and the consolation of the survivors, till feu, or five o'clock yesterday morning. That gentleman, on hearing of the fatal accident, or. dried several hones to be saddled, and gave directions (after his services in other respects were useless), foe the sad news to be carried to the parents of the deceased persons, and to others. Several religious hooks were picked up near the fatal spot yester. day morning, and also a reticule and a book on matrimony, and into which state we are informed one of th e unfortunate females had been about to enter. The beat which caused this dreadful disaster wee a flat bottomed skiff, peeked at each end, not more titan three yards and a half in length, and about one and a hull broad It was towed by a horse, which was driven by a man and a boy, but nu blame appears to attach to either of them, as had been reported before the Inquest was held. The boy, as will be seen by the Inquest below, was in advance, opening the gate of the towing-path, and it is not on. likely but the opening of the gate might somewhat have alarmed ' I the horse, and caused him to have given the "snatch" spoken of by the witness Lake. The Coroner, J. Clirareity, g4 q • arrived at the house of Mr. Wm. Read, the place where the Inquest was held, about two o'clock yesterday (Friday) afternoon; and the Jury having already beet. summoned by Sir J. D. King, the Inquest proceeded. CORONER'S INQUEST. The Jury, consisting of Sir J. D. Xing (Foreman). Mr. W. Croxford, Sir. 'l'. Croxtord, Mr. W. Purcell, Mr. J. Clarke, Mr. W. Eldridige, Mr. W. Rumen, Sir. W. Wickert, Mr. John Cole man, Mr. J. 011iffe, Mr. Thomas Oanthle, end Mr. John Smith, proceeded to view the bodies; after which the following witnesses were examined : Mr. William Lake, of Marswerth, surveyor, a young man about 20 years of age, said he was in the boat with the two deceased and three other female*, on Thursday night, about halt-past eight o'clock, near Helton Moor; the boat was towed by a horse, and which was driven b a man and a boy. The boy was forward, opening a gate on t he towing path, at the time the accident took place. The party was perfectly steady, and the boat was going at the rate of four miles per hour. 'sir J. V. King here stated that the accident happened in deep water, where the buoyancy of the boat was greater than in shallow water ; end after suiting some facts, which he looped would exclude the necessity of the surviving fe males being called on for their evidence, thereby sparing their al ready too much distressed feelings', the witness proceeded :—Thc Party reached about a mile from K endover—believed the boat was going a little faster than before; it became agitated, as if the hone had given a sudden search, when the fore-end pitched into the water, it upset, and the whole party were immersed in the water. The canal was deeper than the height of the witness. Witness could swim a little, and succeeded In rescuing three of the females ; by this time the two deceased females had sunk. lie matte sonic efforts to find them; but he was quite exhausted, and could not have done more without endangering his own life. The party was seated quite steady when the boat was upset; the drivers were quite steady, and stopped the horse when called to, and witness could not attach the least blame to any one. Robert Vellum (the boy) said he was opening the gate at the time the accident took place; he heard a voice cry " stop ;" it ap peared a cry of alarm ; the man who drove the beat stopped Mune. diately, and went beck to the boat, and assisted to get some of tfie females out of the water. Witness saw the deceased females sink s they did not rise again ; did not know the cause of the boat sinking. The boat was upset in the parish of Halton. The boat, horse, and towing-rope belonged to Sir. Lake. The Coroner said it was necessary to ascertain this fact, as the l iar demanded that a deotland should be laid on every thing at all instrumental in the death of the deceased persons. Thomas Barwick, labourer, was present when the first deceased body was taken out of the water, about nine o'clock. The other was taken out about an hour afterwards. The surgeon and Sir J. D. King were attending the lint belly, while search was making for the discovery of the other. The potion who drove the boat was searching, and appeared quite steady. Mr. W. Reed corroborated the evidence of last witness. Alt. T. W. Turner, surgeon, of Wendover, was called to the first deceased body that was found about a quarter past ten o'clock, and used every, means to restore substation for nearly three hours, but all hill efforts proved ineffectual. He saw the other body about one o'clock ; ft was quite in an irrecoverable state. The death of the unfbrtunete females was caused by suffocation, in consequence of' immersion in water. TbeJegy were sseisdsd with the evidence, and by the Coroner's dlressleale ethwillswid the case, sod retuned a yeediet.—" Aecidess. telly Drowned.'"..-A deodand of is. was laid on the boat be. on the be, and tab. on the rope. Sir J. P. King, as hard of the Manor, expressed a wish that the boat should be broken up, to prevent the recurrence of such a dreadful catastrophe. An undertaker attended early yesterday to measwc the unfortu- i naies for coffins, and it was expected they would be removed in the course of the evening to the distressed habitations of their parents and friends, which they had so lately quitted in health and spirits. They were both possessed of great beauty. The surviving fe. males were, to a - late hour yesterday, at the engine -house, about 200 yards from the melancholy abode of their deceased friends and conteanlons. Miss Butcher was daughter of Mr. Butcher, grocer, at Tring, and Miss Allen, daughter of Mr. Allen, parchment.manufactuter, at Leighton-Buzurd. CORO.VER'S INQUEST.

This was the celebrated Josh liodwin, of Aylesbury, • man of some mettle, and consequently good sport was expected ; but alas, poor Josh, full of heavy wet, atter a few toppers, rolled about and kicked up his legs as would one of his patients (a horse), when afflicted with the gripes. Josh, however, 'hewed game, for about twenty rounds, in the course of which he received as many blows, and as many falls ' (where is the man who could have stood more?) , and by this time feeling a little consolation at having painted the shutters of his op. Ip?nent's ssi.lo:es, lie was easily persuaded by his pickers-•p to yield the victory to hits who has been called the Ludy-killer, but who should now, according to the fashion, change his name to that of Man-kilke. Monday a battle was fought on Wessington Green, near Al. freton, for live guineas, between Jahn Goose, of Pulwell, a young man about twenty years of age, and a Derbyshire man, shoes name we have not heard. The battle lasted fur sonic time, when (hinge tell down, and the other, in tumbling over him, pitched upon his (Goose's) stomach, and caused the young man's death in the course of a few minutes. Spring and Cribb were at Aherdeen during the races last week, and net doubt reaped a plentiful harvest, as they exhibited their pugilistic science. GREAT CRICKET MATCH AT DARNALL, FOR TWO HDNDRED SOVEREIGNS. The grand Cricket Match between eleven Sheffield ahtl eleven Leicestershire players, for which great preparations have been making on the new ground, at Darnall, near t h is phwc. commenced on Tuesday forenoon. The contest having excited a peculiar interest in and around Sheffield, the concourse of spectators was proportionately great. The playing conuuenced about half-past eleven o'clock. _ . On %% cdnestlay, the rain poured in torrents, se as to render it impossible to play on that day. On Thurs.:ay the match was re- 1 commenced ; at the conclusion of the day, odds were in favour of Leicester. On Friday, the weathir pmvetl extremely tine, sad the game afforded very high gratification. The playing on both sides was uncommonly good, and we believe that a better contested match never took place. %Ve should suppose, on a moderate cal culation, that front 20,0110 to 25.01g1 persons were present on this day. Leicester, first and second innings, 213—Sheffield, first aid second innings, 212. FOOT RACY—Os Thursday last, a foot race wan run over linavesmire, near York, by Brown, the pedestrian, as:shift Nelson, two miles. for NI. each. Brown took the lend and was never headed. The distance was run in ten minutes and fire seconds, amidst a great concourse of people. The sinner is the son of the noted Brown, who formerly ran eight miles over the York Race Course in 41 minutes and a half, beating the celebrated cubist, whose petlesu tan feats cannot be forgotten.
