The , Solicitor to the as,ignerst of a bankrupt, who had contracted to excavate at the new irost.olhee. applied to the Loan MAYOR, to authwite the reinoval of a quantity of reallid .ing of considerable value from the premises. The presence of the pollee, he believed, would be absolutely neeeesary to enforce the order, RI there were trot learn than two hundred Irish fence-reed in detaining the property, anal Mote persons were disposed to tight foe it with pick...axes and any other desperate weapons they caudal lay held of. Cie [men 111Aroa asked whether the Irishmen had any claim upon the readidding ? The Solicitor deelared they had not the slightest colour of a de. morel upon the assignees. The contractor tar the new building had employed the bankrupt to supply certain materials to assist to the excavation. On Friday lest the net of bankruptcy was committed. The excavator. who was in the habit of paying the men weekly, wait supplied with the money to ti.iy them tie usual, but they con. Animal now that their week's labour was not paid for, mid there tine insisted upon detaining the which they swore they would not permit to be token from the memoirs without the order Of the LOW 'M ape', who they thought would take care to do them jal The LORD MAYOIII asked whether the assignees could have any rational objection to pay the poor men for work which certainly had been dune by them, and which they ter minty could out milord to give gratilituunly ? The Solicitor repeated, that the bankrupt's property wee not liable fur the week's limy, although he had appropriated to his own purpo.es that which should have been given to theme!). the Loan MA V Olt said, the course which he should adopt, if he were tee of the assigntes, would be to pay the men for ;heir labour. The case war very hard moon the poor hard-working Irishmen. most of whom probably had families to support. Ills '.ordship added. that the assignees must look to the conaegurnme of noy breach of the pence they might 'auction. Ili, Lordship then refmad to authorise the venture' of the property, but sent olfieere to prevent any breach of the peace on either aide. - - - Srarrfrap ROUSER'''. —rawly Pinfbld, a nymph of therm, mad Henry Collard, an old acquaintance of the City Police, who imps a 'muse of accommodation for rogues, it should seem, as well as strampets, at No. 2, King's 11nel-court. in the neighbmirlinod of Barbican, wire brought before the Sitting Alderman, Sir Cl!AßLell FLORIN, yesterday, on suspicion of bring privy to solve robbery. twat least of harbintring the thief.

'll.e Officers went there forthwith, but the bird was flown ; they however found his companion—Pinfold, and the property Jones had described, ythieli, togither with Collard, as he was the keeper of the house, they brought before the Magistrate, Molly Jones resentment having had time to subside, though she still bore the marks of her recent betiting, she now ctintriveil to shape her testimony so as to screen her master and mistress. The Win. she said, was entirely a stranger—a mere casual visitor, who had z•iiiive there with the prisoner Pinfold ; but this same casual vtsrtoe. she allow-Cher had suffered to run up a bill to the amount of IL and had aecorintintiated with the loan of smite eight ten shillings besides; and Collard's wife, though she did nut teeny this friendly neerinniewlstion, was ready in swear that she never saw the win betiwe in her life. The bundle was finind to cm - man a pair of cavalry pistols, nearly new.

Mr. 1',% Iti,Ell. a wilteitor, who attend' far Collard, urged that lietin tile evidence there win no ch:uege against either of the prisoners. The Magistrate, however, not attaining that the pro perty was stolen, thought there was tnftirient against them to letterset their being detwined, at least till that matter shmild be eleven! up, and they were accordingly mnunded, with directions that in the meantime the property should be advertised. II A TTON 11.1.1 t 111 , . N. Vcalerti3y, J. ll'hiltace, a pastry-cook, residing in Lloyd's row.

The singularity of their appearance attracted his at. terition, and on asking them where they were conveying their luggage, they replied that their mistress sent them to deposit with a frietid her own private property, as she intended leaving on the fallowing morning her " Oewl fur nnthing" husband. Read, in a becoming respect for ate connubial state, took t h e women into tuetotly, and Immediately proceeded to the prisoner's house in a teasels, bundline," as he termed it, the ladies with their port— menteans into it. The prisoner was not in his house, but Read was directed Ina neighbouring public house, where " hr was sure to he at krone." On Read's communicating to him the circumstances or the Asc, and the projected plan of his wife's departure, he felt so ilifignnnt at head's premature rerelAtion, that he threw Ilfr his • nat and waistcoat, amt insisted on sonic atonement for disturbing his peace of mind. The posilLetimity of Read WAS abvioudy ex treme, as without much derangement of exterior, lie could have readily placed the defendant in any able pocket. The meliorate inquired of Seidl, it' he wished to press the case of assault a.alilift the inisoner, to which lie replied, that he hail had • ite enough or the matter, lamenting the consequences or init./Fet ing between man anti wife.

UNION 11A1.4 Yesterday a boy, of not more than ten years of age, named Shim. miegtow, was Inought up in the custody of Malloy, a constable, before 1. 11. A r.i.ust, Lag,. charged with having committed the fol lowing daring robbery. Johnson, ahopman to Mr. Jones, • silk mercer, of High -street, Ilarotigh, matted, that about 10 o'clock that morning, as he was engaged behind the counter, he heard a noise proceed from the window, and on looking to it, saw a hand within one of the panes of glass, grasping a valuable shawl and a piece of Ban dannith handkerchiefs. lle instantly jumped across the counter, and taw the prisoner pass the articles to a man, who instantly " bolted," and escaped with the things. The primmer, however, was secured on the spot, but none of the property found upon him. The witness was convinced that it was the prisoner's hand he saw take the shasl rind a piece of Isituditereliters out of the win dow. The pane of glass appeared to have been cut with a glazier's diamond. l'he young thief, on hearing the evidence against him, surprised every body in the Mfice by the ingenious manner in which lie et . unlined the *helms on the improbability of the story he had just told against him. Prisoner—thaw can you swear it was my band you saw in your shop window? If I was the thief, would not the instrument that cut the glass have been found in my ptissession when you were searching me ? - Nu; neither the shawl, handkerchief or any . thing else of suspicion was found upon toy person ; besides, is it likely that I should " do the thing," that can earn an honest living by my trade? I did nut even attempt to run after the rubbery. The Nlaglstrate asked him what his trade was? Primmer-1 goes about curing warts, and if any gentleman In the office has warts or butiyous, I will cure hint of the worst kind in lens than a week, that is, if he pays me. The Magistrate desired hint to tell exactly the truth, and give up the name of his courlattion, but neither threats nor persuasions could induce him to do either. Ile positively declared that he knew nothing at all about the business " lie was had up for," farther than seeing a man thrust something into his breast and run off with it. Ile was asked whether he wan ever " hail up" to any office before? Lard bless you! me, I don't know what it is to be inside a prison, I ant as innocent as the child unborn. Mr. Jones's 'Mantuan hieing positive as to the identity of the prisonor,Mr.ALLs Y observed,that he never yet saw a boy in a surer road to the gallows than he was. It was evident, front the slang terms he haul made use of, that he was not • novice at his business; and there was very little doubt that he was known to the public at the other side of the water. Under these circumstances, he should now be committed for trial. •.• We ate requested to contradict the statement In our pollee report, froin Lambethetrest, yesterday, that Mr. D. W. Magin had been imprituned in the House of f'orrection fix three months. We are mound that this statement is wholly without toundstiou. HORRIBLE MURDER. The Court of Assize, at Rouen, has been occupied with the trim of a barber of that town named Veillsere, fur the murder of hi wife, on the 28th of April last. The principal facts, as detailed in evidence, were as follow s-- On the day above-mentioned. Veilliere, whose wife had been living separate 'from him, in consequence of the cruelty and ds. panty of his conduct, called at the house of a Madame Padais, where his wife happened w he, and insisted upon seeing her. He afflicted a calm and penitent air, and entreated his wife to be re conciled to him. This, however she refused, hut without using any irritating expressions, she end eavoured to leave the apartment, but was prevented by her husband, who still continued talkine to Miulaine Paden. All of a sudden, and without the slightest word or look that could have intimated his intention, he drew his heads front his pocket, where he had held thou billl'e his entrance, and flushing upon his wife, mixed her by the hair of the head, dragged her into a coiner of the room, and stabbed her twice with a knife in the neck. At her eves, Madame Padais ran towsinls them, Nei:lilt N'eilliere, and tore hint front his victim, but rot until be inflicted another wound upon her. Madame Padais and he then struggled for a long time, until they Toth fell. when he escaped front her grasp, leaving the skirt of his coat behind. With re doubled fury, he returned to his expiring wife, and taking the blade of the knife, fur the handle had been broken eft in the strug gle, be ;anew il it into her belly, in which he made a circular In cumin of font or tive Mani in d &meter. Some women who had i Teen present at the commencement of this horrid scene, fled away, I terrified, and erring out for help. Their cries brought the other lodgers in the house to the scene, and as they were about to seize ‘'eilliere, be gave himself several stake with the knife, exclaiming, I wish to die with her." None of the wound' being serious, lie as stein able to undergo an examination. Ile sought to establish Lthat theerione was unpremeditated, saying that when he nuke wined to kiss his wife, she spst in his htee, and that exaspetateti 'at such treatment, he had struck at her with a knife, not knowing what he did. Rut this account was falsified by the witnesses, and other facts brought forwent to ;trove his premeditation ; his having , liven on the watch fin his wife fur some days ; hia having pur. I chased a knife the day before tile murder. During the trial he ex. I hibiteul a firmness and assurance that did not desert hint for a single ' moment. The Jury, after a for minutes deliberation, found him Guilty, unanimously. Ile heard his sentence without the slightest emotion. since his condemnation, he obstinately refused to appeal, and gave, in writing, his determination, which he wrote with a firm hand. The interval between his sentence and execution lie passed, `except the time devoted to sleep, in playing earth'. He had an in. ordinate resins hue gambling, which was the primary cause of his depravity mid ruin. To get his lillow-prisoner to play with hint, he eond to threaten, when they refused, to haunt then after his death. The day betere his execution the cards were never out of , ' his hands, till he went to bed, when lie slept soundly. Next morn. 1 ing, afroe breakfasting heartily, he resumed his card.playing, and did not leave off till the fatal moment came fur hint to go to the • chapel, on his way to the scutfold. He then entreated that his fel ' km-prisoners, who had been playing with him, might be allowed 'to 'wimpy>. hint to chapel. lie confessed, with great calmness, and listened with Attention to the discourse of the rlergymati. On i his way to the seafrold, he showed the same unshakeable firmness.

Tnesday being the day appointed for the sixth annual contest le:tween the IVatemien belonging to the Tower stairs, fur a hand some irlierry, and other prizes given by subscription, the river, at an early hour, presented a very animated appearance below Bridge. The different vessels lying off the Tower and Custom-house hoisted their colours. The Tender mounted her Union Jack, Pennant, and other colours. The Steam Yachts were filled with elegant companies, with hands of music. The competitors had to row tire ' heats, and shout twelve o'clock, the men were seen as foiluw, ft. Ream Red—lt. Payne. Yellow—C. Griggs, Blus — J. Bald win, Parple—R. Chigwell, Green—J. James, l'ink.

The fourth heat was between the first and second men of the first heat against the winners of the third heat. tied and green were the competitors for the grand heat. Red took the lead, closely followed by green, but the former main tained the advantage, and won the boat cleverly.—The successful candidate was placed in the prize, which had been put into n cart, and, preceded by a band or music playing " See the Conquer ing Hero comes," war conveyed to the Royalty Theatre, where the boat was presented to hint on the stage. The house was crowded to excess. ROWING AIATCIf. A grand boat race took place on Monday last, from the Erl.pie House, Twickenham, to a boat moored opposite Lady Dysart's, and back to Twickenham Ait, by six watemen, fin a purse of so vereigns, a hick attracted as numerous an assemblage of beauty and fashion as we have witnessed at any aquatic fete for some time' plot; in fact, old Father Thames presented a very grand and lively scene; and we are happy to say, that the Spectators were not die. appointed in their expectations of good sport. The prizes were de.' tided at four heat■, as under : First Heat—Two o'clock. • George Jackson (blue) - - I Wni. Sleets (red) . . 2 This was well contested, and won by Jackson by three boat. lengths. Second bleat—Three o'clock. Timothy Rigby (red) . .

Third Heat—Four o'clock. Wm. Downs (red) . I George Itedknap (blue) - . 2 This heat was not so well contested as the other two, the men not being so well matched. Retlknap was an aged man, and Downs a strong athletic young one of 23, and who won his match easy. Some brisk betting in a small way now took place opt the follow. ing heat, which was to decide the superiority of the three winners ; when Downs was barked at even against the others. The result was as follows: Fourth and Last bleat—Five o'clock. • Wm. leowns - - - I I;eorge Jackson . . 2 Timothy Rigby - . 3 Strength and youth ma Downs a decisive superiority, as he took and maintained the lead, and won easy.

FIGHT BETWEEN ROUGH ROBIN, AND CLARKE, TIIE FANCY BA !IDES, OF MARLBOROUGH-ST. ON FRIDAY LAST. This battle was for a purse of twenty-five sovereigns ; twenty to the winner, and five to the loser; given by a few Co rinthians, who are determined to support pugilism in the lutist respectable manner. On Thursday night, at a late hour, the scene of action was made known, and every arrangement was smile for four o'clock next morning, at Haigh 's Fields, better known by the appellation of •• the IVhite-tupe Factory." Orders were received in solemn silence ; every thing /*wog. In die morn ing, vehicles, equestrians, and pedestrians, were on the move—the ground was made good ; the Commissary, with a few of his de partment, attended; the engineers fell to work, and in a few mi nutes the ring wan formed, and the men were ready to go to work, when it was whispered that the blunt was not on the ground. This leading feature of life caused a delay of nearly one hour. We ob. served the fiL.ster of the Ceremonies mount the back of an old ditch, to look out for the Treasurer, who, it was understood, had been sporting at a fancy ball during the night. When the ball broke up he had to arc his fair partner home ; this was apology enough for the delay, as it is well known that an Irishman never tenegatled the field or the petticoat Ile soon appeared, but alas! at the sante instant also appeared a small party of Peo ce (Hikers of College-street division . Immediately all was bustle; the stakes and ropes having been tuade a seizure of, for the want of an over seer, the Master of the Ceremonies Came forward, and claimed them an the property of the P. C., which was agreed to. Every thing being now on the mare, it was agreed that the men should fight, and it was no go if they did not blink the beaks.— I The bonlers of the County Wicklow were now fixed on for the scene of action, if ito more convenient place offered; but as the advanced party on the took out, discovered a beautiful arbour under the spreading foliage of some lofty elms, in the neighbourhood of Stillorgan, thin was hailed as highly advantageous to the party. Here the C ttttt mander.in-Chief halted ; walls, hedges, F ates, fences, ate. were crossed an if by Hunters of the Alpe Soon a new ring was formed; the men peeled, and were reedy fur work. All being prepared, Rough Rollin first threw up his Custer, fol lowed by Sir Patrick Ilalton and Power, a Knight of the Whip Ilrecit, The Barber soon followed, attended by Molloy, a brother chip and a black diamond. On shipping both men b o oked well, but guineas to pounds were currently offered on the Barber. Round I. On shaking hands, at 23 minutes past seven, it was expected the men would go to work instantly; both extremely cautious. Three minutes elapsed before a blow was struck, when the Barber made play, which was beautifully parried by Robin; he returned with quickness, when both men went to it like lions; give and take seemed to be the order of the day; a close—both down, Robin under-5 to on the Barber. This roundoecupied seven minutes. 2. Robin came to the scratch as gay as a lark ; in this round, as the first, a great display of science ; when the Barber made play at his (Robin's) victualling-office, which Robin would not have ; he shewed in this round to be as leary a man as ever stripped ; his method of getting away seemed pszeultar t( himself—in a close, both down. 3. In corning to the match the Maser's right ogle seemed to be queered ; lie thawed first blood ; both met with great cone dew, when Robin made play at the Barber's tripe-shop ; lie was returned on the head with the Barber's, bread-basket ; Robin got away from another finefitiniar that was intended. Here it appeared Mat the Barber laboured under the disadvantage of the rang pot being roped. In a cloxe, the Bathes was thrown on hu heal —.c 4 on Robin. 4.

A respectable and wealthy butcher, named Ilalithe, residing is Walworth, appeared before the Sitting Al.igistratc, at Union all yesterday, to answer the following complaint : A gentleman, who was a customer of the defendant'n,atated, that on Saturday evening he went to his shop for the purposs of put. chasing a joint. /lc took out his purse, which contained a 5/. note and some silver, and paid for the meat with a pan of the siker ; after which he l eft ' the shop, and on the Monday following, having occasion fur some money out of the purse, he immediately trissed the M. note. It at once mewled to him that he must have dropped the note in the defendant's shop when he was paying for the oat on the Saturday, and that ft would be restored to him on applies. lion. In this, however, he was disappointed ; for, on stating his loss to the defendant, in the presence of his wife, both of them de. dared that the note had not been dropped in their shop, and that they knew nothing about it.. The complainant, however, was se satisfied of having lost the rote in the way stated, that he instantly set about an inquiry, and traced it to the FOSICIISIO'I of a Mr. Pat. ten, of Leadenhall market, whose clerk he ascertained had takes I it that morning from Mr. Italphe.—( Here the complainant need the number and the indorsements on the note.)—lle went back is to the defendant's shop, and informed him and his wife of :be circumstance, saying, that he had no inclination to pursue the business any further, if they consented to make good his loss. They refused, however, to listen to any such proposition, sad the defendant's wife insisted that she had taken the note which els given to Patten from a customer. The complainant required the name of that customer to be given up to him ; and on making inquires of the individual mentioned, ascertained that she had rot given the note in question either to the defendant or his wfc. Under these circumstances, he (the complainant) considered that the case was one that should come before a Magistrate. The defendant exclaimeel—" I assure your Worship I know as. thing about thin note; I never take money myself on a Satinetsf in the shop. My mistress always attends to the receiving of mashy from the customers ; and I again declare I du nut know how cornet whom my wife took it." Mr. ALLEY observed, that the case was as clear as risible. The note was traced to have been in the possession of the &Ind. ant, who could not give the slightest satisfactory account of the manner in which he had become possessed of it. If the note was not delivered up to the gentleman by Wednesday, serious come. quences would arise. lie, however, hoped that there would be as necessity for adopting harsh measures, but that the note would be restored to its owner.
