Mr. Semitesre rated that that was an action brought against the late High Sheriff of this county, Sir John Greene, Knight. fur the lathes of his officers in taking insufficient pledges, who proved afterwards, oti the bonds being put in execution, to be as " a grain of dust in the balance." It appeared front the statement of the Learned Gentleman, that a distress for rent had been made, when a replevin bond was given, and sureties taken by the defendant's officers, who were in insol vent circumstances at the time it was given, and who, on their ex amination, further stated, that they executed the instrument, think ing that it was a mere matter of form. The rent was little ranee than 121. and both of the bondsmen swore, on theit crasa.exaroln ation by Mr. Sergeant Cans. who was Counsel for the defendautt, that they were not worth double the sum, as is by law required, when replevin bonds are taken. The Learned BARON said, that the plaintiff's had brought their action under a very useful Act of Parliament passed in the Deign of King Charles 11., and that it was quite clear the Shen, was liable for the latches of his officers; and, to this ineraters. to double the amount of the rent for which the replevin bond had been taken. The Jury, therefore, found under his Lordship's cheep, Ver dict for the plaintiff—Damages 221. 2s. 61—Costs 40a. The other prisoner said that he found the spoon. A drabbish.looking girl appeared to give bCOIL a character, but it appearing that she was his sister, she was nut examined. Verdict, buth Guilty. They were semi:axed to seven years' transportation.

Mr. Sergeant Caoss conducted the defence, and contended that the accident arose solely front the effects of a storm at sea, which had been described by the witnesses on the part of the defendant, and which he could not control. Mr. SCARLETT in his reply. after some preliminary observe tons, said " that his Learned Friend had contended that the plain. tiff's vessel had been wrecked by the effects of a storm, but it was no such thing, and he would tell the Gentlemen of the ' lury it was no more a storm than the storm of a chamber-pot !" (Loud bursts of laughter followed this simile;) on its ceasing the Learned Oen demon evidently entharrassed--(seeing some ladies in the Court blushing) said, Gentlemen of the Jury, you know, u I told you before, Gentlemen of the Jury, I have proved that It did rot arise from the storm." It was with difficulty the laughter was sup. pressed so as to enable the Learned Gentleman to finish his reply. The Jury found for the plaintiff--llamages MIL costs 40a. HUGHES V. ST•THAM, TOWN came or LIVERPOOL. Mr. SCARLSTT. Mr. Serpent Caoss, and Mr Pal - meow, were for the plaintiff; and r. Bacstronast, Mr. STATUE, and Mr. Ataeasott, for the defendant. The damages were laid in the pleadings at 6,000 L The defend. ant pleaded eon asnonpsit. r. ScaaLETT stated the nature of the action, which was brought against the defi.utlant as Clerk of the Peace for the Borough of Liverpool, to recover one.fourdi part of certain fees paid to hint, arising front the prosecution against felons, by virtue of the office which he held as such Clerk, front which he was en titled to receive four shillings or every count in the indictment, and which the defendant was liable to pay a division of to the plaintiff, ' as a partnership claim, tinder an agreement dated the 211th of Fe bruary, 11110. A dissolution of pannership of the let of March appeared to have been contemplated, but had never been Garetted. Mr. Sergeant CROSS contended, that under the Act of Perlis. met of 2•Jd George 11. the plaintiff could not recover in this action, as he could not act in a twofold capacity as Tows Clerk awl Solicitor in the prosecutions for felonies nines either in the Borough, County, or Quarter Sessions. Mr. S T said, Mr. Statham had filed &bill in equity against Mr. Hughes. Mr. ALDERSON said, there had been an award made between the parties, winch recited that the plaintiff should be entitled to ono-fourth pert of the profits that might arise from all prosecutions for felonies in the borough of Liverpool, &c. ; and that the plain , tiff had said, Mr. Alderson toads no claim until the latter end of the last year, for which he had brought his action, awl at all events he was concluded by the award. Mr. Scaaxxve said, that the word " arise" might as well have Mss fuller. Mr. A tettesow—My Learned Friend knows a joke is no argument. A Gentleman proved thet Mr. Statham had requested him to associate with Mr. Slashes, and that he signed the agreement. Mr. Scast ETT suggested a reference.

A verdict was then nominally taken for the plaintiff—Damesse 6,00 M, costs 40s. subjest to the bill in equity, in which all parties were to enter into a rule of Court. PIRIETT t. AIIIN. Mr. BIitIDITIT opened the pleadings, and— Mr. Bun trott•st stated, that this was an action brought by the plaintiff; a cattle-dealer of great respectability, for the freig ht of 131 sheep and 15 head of oxen.

He received a number of cattle on board from Joseph Carrot, with a letter addressed to Patrick Quin, which he delivered to him ; he noted it in his log book of 211th April. Quin said, instead of his paying be would make his master pay. Examined by Mr. SCARLETT—Mr. Carrot appeared like any other gentleman ; he was a great dealer in cattle. By Mr. BROUGHAM—IIe did not know that Quin acted as an agent ; they were delivered to him.

OLD DAILET, MONDAY, SEPTEMBES liefrre 114 C COMYON SEROZAVT. - - Fli:ra touisa Edro, • very interesting young woman, about BO years of age, was indicted fur stealing a scarf and other articles, the property of Robert Clark. The prisoner is the same Mrs. Edey who formerly kept a small coffee-house at Charing-crow and has frequently appeared in our Police Reports , and who was formerly tried at Clerkenwell for üb. tarring goods by false pretences. On the present occasion she was very elegaa tlydressed in mounting, and her appearance was highly respectable. The wife of the prosecutor, an elderly woman, who never gave a direct answer, but chattered Incessantly all the time she was in the witness-box, proved, in substance, that the prisoner lodged in her husband's house, and that she gave the prisoner the key of her drawers to luck thou up. The prisoner in a few minutes returned her the key, and said she had done so. The witness then went oat, and on her return she discovered the articles had been stolen, and that the prisoner was no where to be found ; but about a month after she met the prisoner in St. James's Park, and charga her; with the theft, and offered to make it up for 4!., but the prisoner replied that she had not things to anything like that amount. The witness then asked her for the duplicates of the things, but the prisoner nut away, and was stopped by the people of the whey house. The witness was crow-examined by Mr. Ilkontitici, but no thing important was elicited. The prisoner declined making any defence, but her Counsel called— Edward Frederick AVettenhall, a life-guardsman of gigantic stature and huge whiskers, who merely proved that he was a friend ut the prisoner, and thaethe prosecutor's wife charged the prisoner with the robbery, and that he told the prisonerof it. The Commit N 1..; Len tiract told the Jury to use their own good sense uu the case, and they deliberated for near half a hour, when the Common sergeant read over the whole of the evidence, and one of the Jury asked whether there were not other lodgers in the pro. KeClitOT . ll house ? which being answered in the affirmative, they, after some Mrther deliberation, found the prisoner Not Gaily. George Ilitsn. and Janie Scott., the former aged 18, the latter 12, were indicted for stealing two silver spoons, the property of Edward Hillier. 31r. (Altatx Tow stated the ease, and called Alr. Ili id., it, who stated, that he lived in Cumming street. Pcmotiville, and that on the 11th August two spoons were missed from his kitchen, one of them marked P. L. William Homolds, an officer, stated, that on that day he saw the prismurs together coming up Collier street, which is a turning out of !wooing•street. The prisoner Scott had a spoon in his hand, which he was showing to the Clitt7 7 who, sedng the okicer, said, Om-examined—lt was a dark night, but although it was he could see the wall-eye, and could pick the pony out ohs thousand. If you looked at the pony so attentively, why did you not speak to the man ?—Because I knew hint to be a auspicious character. Then, knowing him to be such. you, as a guardian of the night, never condescended to ask him whose animal it was ?—Because the prisoner and his tither have several horses and ponies at times, as they ore knackers. Mr. Sergeant MIAMI' summed up the evidence, and the Jury returned a verdict el.—Guilty—Death, but recommended him to mercy, considering it to be his first offence. J. F.figlish, aged E., was indicted for stealing, on the lOtli De amber last, in tile parish of Heston, a gelding, value 101. the pro perty of IV. Waterhouse. to. Cole, a tanner, at Sutton—Knew the prisoner, and bought a bay gelding of him on the 10th December, for which he paid him 101. It was the sante as Mr. Waterhouse and another omulinuan had seen since. Witness received a receipt for the Mn t. recelpt was put in and read—it was dated December 10, and or um. for a bay horse, and was showed by the prisoner. Cross-examined-1 hail the horse in my possession ice more theca • month, as well as another horse, previous to the date of the re. cart. I paid the money on the date of the receipt. The horses were lent to me to use occasionally, as the prisoner had nothing for them to do, and I was to keep them. They were not then lit fur the coach use. When 1 had dune with the horses I returned them, and the prisoner wished me to buy them. Ile wanted 121. for the one I bought, and W. for the other. I publicly used them about my farm. The proposition to sell was made before the return of the horses, and I only returned one and kept the other, and used it till about July, before Mr. Waterhouse claimed it. 1 think I gave rather more than the precise value. I have known the prisoner for ten years. W. Waterhouse—l am proprietor of the Swan with Two Necks, Dad-lane. The prisoner has been in guy employ about 15 years. He was my principal man at Hounslow, and had from 70 to 100 horses under his care generally. I have stable, there for them. I have no partner in the business. The prisoner had no general au. thority to sell my hones, though he has done so sometimes, when I found that the horses were not fast enough for my work. I have then fixed a price for them, to be disposed of to any customer that might want them. Tne prisoner never had power from me to sell, except those horses which I pointed out. The horse I saw in the possession of W. Cole I ant sure is mine. I never gave the pri soner authority to sell that horse. It was not till about the mid dle of last June that I had reason to know it was sold. The pri soner had neither apprised me of the sale, or given me any money on account of it. I had seen him about once • month during the period front Christmas to June. I sometimes went to Hounslow, and at other times the prisoner came up. I never made any stay at Hounslow, but remained only as long as my business requited. When I did sleep there, It was at a friend's house in the neigh bourhood. I do not recollect sleeping there during the last six months. I never was at Mr. Cole's till the time I went to leek fee my horse. 1 generally live its lad-lane. There is a Massa IS premises at Hounslow, but I have not one in my own ymeshelen. There were eight men altogether under the prisoner, and they would have an opportunity of seeing whether a horse was with- drawn. Ths primmer was never allowed to take a bond k part of payment for wages, but I have ordered him to bens. hone foe hay several times. The prisoner left my .SSr i be ginning of June. We had to settle the . aesepaes AN his 1 laving, and it was about that time that 1 bawd at tile hens ' having been sold ; the prisoner has claimed a balance fire lettuce and something else, amounting to 221. ; the claim is all paid I it was after this that we found out about the horse. I have never heard anything about a claim for the things now put Into my hand, and I have never seen or heard of these claims. Good hay was , worth about 41. a load in December last; have seen White, a grocer, of Hounslow, lately, but had not any conversation with hint about hay delive red ' for this identical horse; but White made some observation about it during a conversation we had about some bad hay I found in one of - my lolls, when White said he understood I had had some hay for this horse ; 1 said that I knew of no hay I had had for that horse, but that I had seen some very ordinary hay in my loft, and upon asking the prisms where it mute froni, he said lie bought it of same person from a place called Friniley, and for which I paid seven pounds to the prisoner; White told me that he understood some hay had been delivered foe two horses; I said yes, that I had been told that four or five parcels bad been scut for two bones; I told him 1 had only heard of it,a sal that I did not know it of my own knowledge. The prisoner put in a written defence, stating, that he had been in • similar situation to that he held under the prosecutor for twenty four years, and he never had the least imputation cast upon his character. He had repeatedly sold and bartered horses for hay at the command of the prosecutor and his sons; that on the lit lof December last Joseph Waterhouse told' him to dispose Of the horse in question sod another for four loads of hay, which he had done. J. White is a grocer at Hounslow--I had some conversation with the prosecutor about some hay on the 16th of last month, when I as ked him if, to his own knowledge, he had not received I some hay fur horses ? lie answered, be had received four or five parcels, but did not kouw how much they contained. Cross-examinnt by Mr. Alio zetins.--Did not mention the barter of any particular horse, neither the time nor person from whom it was received ; one of my . brothers, and two of my ap prentices, were present during th is conversation; they are not here today. Several witnesses gave this prisoner a gond character; but he failed to prove that he was authorised to sell the horse. Verdict— Not Guilty. The prisoner will be brought up again on Wednesday morning, to be tried upon a charge of embezzlement. 31IDDLESEI SESSIONS, Mtocnar, SEPT. 20. Catherine Evans was indicted tor having stolen a quart pot, value lild. the property of Thomas Spring, a public-huust keeper. Mr. Spring proved that the vessel was his property. The 111•11111•11—Was the WWI to your possession Sir. Coatamax—ln what part of your house P.--On the steps of the door, outside. Cumastax—And do you then say it was in your possession when it lay out of your house in the public way ?--1 don't say it exactly was. ' Coal a ss itlf.—So, then, you piece your property in a position sufficient in itself to tempt the euumission of theft ; and de you expect I can, under such tircuinstances, transport people for you P Wines..No, Sir, 1 have no such wish ; my only motive is, the preservation of my property. Citainsfax—But placing your property on the steps of y OUT door is not the way to preserve it ; you ought to keep it within your door. I cannot transport a person for you whom yourself have been the trans of tempting. Witness—lce cannot avoid 'lacing them there, for the customers to whom they are sent bring them back and leave thou at the door, where they lie until all are collected for cleaning. There are who make a trade of stealing such vessels. I have lost not pus n. than i 41. in one week by the loss of my vetzels. CHAIRDIABI-1 have no doubt there are publicans in London who lose a sum equal to their rent in that manner; but it is their own fault. It is highly improper to place your property in such places. The houses of Lords and Commons, and other high au thorities, have decided so. That the prisoner has stolen the vessel I have no doubt ; but, under the circumstances, I cannot, if the Jury find her guilty, inflict /I punishment commensuram to the in. 'inhale quality of the offence. The Jury, after sonic hesitation, declared her Guilty. Sentence--Three Daya' Imprisonment. BRI'TAI. 'FILEAT3IENT (IF CHILDREN. Cather;ts Irvine, and dlna beim., her daughter, were indicted for starvieg and ill-treating a number of children named in the in dictment while under their care in 31onamatli-court, St. Gilani, in November and August last. The prismunx were diked very respectably, and pleaded— Not Guilty. Mr. A no Len us conducted the proseeition. John Haywood Schutta—Lives at IFalworth ; is a widower, end father of three children mimed in the indicucent, of the ages of 5, Cross-examined:l She handled the etildren, lint did not meld the itch. She kept her own children apart. • Mary Bodeen lives in Monntouth.street ; had two children, a boy and girl. at Mrs. Irvine's, who went by the name of Wicks.. She paid 4s. lid. for the children, and visited them daily till Janu• ary, when she went to Oxford. On her return, in May, she found the children in a dreadful state—all In wounds. One had lost part of her toe, and they were both in utter starvation. Site did not take them away, because she was in tear of her husband, who was living with one of the prisoners, Mrs. IV icks, and because she had no place to take them to. In a fortnight afterwards she took them away. Her husband continued to live with Mrs. Wicks till the morning of her taking the children away. In a month afterwards the parish officers took her husband away from the prisoner's house to compel him to give her a maintenance. A doctor still attends the boy. Cross•examined.—On her return from Oxford she went for half a day to Mrs. Irvine's. She visited every day for a fortnight. She wss tal..en before a Magistrate by Mrs. Irvine for visiting her husband. She smashed the door of Mrs. Irvine's room, and told John Dale to' turn the prisoners out of the house. She ate and drank at Mrs. Irvine's when she came from Oxford. One morn. log, when she went in. she found her husband half undressed, and another morning in bed with Mrs. Irvine. Charles Otto, eight years old, was with Mrs. Wicks, who never gave him enough victual+. She beat him with a stick, a cans, once or twice a week, for nothing at all. He felt very MM. y afterwards; was black and blue on the back. She beat him with her hand, and sometimes with her list. She broke the cane over Fredy Hunt's back ; he was told not to tell his mother, or she would beat him. He lay on a small bed with another boy, and sometimes was turned on the floor in his own clothes. She pawned his boots, which he never got beck. He was taken to the workhouse. Crass.examined—lVe had sometimes a hard pudding for dinner; tea, bread and butter, and cheese. Mr. Puti.ors —Tea, bread and butter, and cheese, at your tea ?—Not all at once !—(Loud laughing.)—The boys told him his back was black and blue. Breakfast at right; no lunch (a laug"); dinner at one, sometimes lit three; ter 'at five and eight o'clock. A quarter of an hour at breakfast ; 19 minutes at milk and water —never enough. Mr. Buri.e.s. a medical gentleman of St. Giles's pariah, deposed to the state"of the children. PHILLIPII addressed the Jury for the prisoners, and ob. served, it was extraordinary that these children should be in such a squalid state of starvation, when it appeared that their parents saw them daily. Not one of the number said to have been starved was taken away from the school by the parents ; but the parish officer came forward, and brought the whole affair into a Court of Justice. lie applauded him for his vigilance, but wished it had been better em ployed. What, in the name of Clod, could parents expect foe half-a-crown or three shillings a week ? These parents came for ward with fine dresses, bonnets and ribbons, and complained that • poor woman, deserted by her husband, had starved their children at three shillings a week. They had three meals a day, fur three halfpence a meal ; bread, cheese, and butter for three-halfpence, and well fed. The poverty of the prisoners were turned against them, it was true ; they were very poor ; they had not a shilling ; but their friends came forward to clothe theni, and to enable him I.) defend them this day. If famine stared the children in the lac,. what must their parents have been made of to have left them one day longer in such a place ? If the Jury gave a verdict against the poor prisoners they would be entirely ruined, and could not remain to this country; but he trusted they would be merciful, and not act on a prejudice to destroy the prospects of these poor women far ever. lie had sixteen wtntues, but he would not call them, to detain the Court till twelve at night. Ile would tears the case is their hands, trusting that they would not sign the fate of the pri soners by awarding a verdict which would be ruinous to them. The Cidat exalt summed up, saying that the charge against Catherine Irvine, was not proved by the father of the child who died. She might have ill fed them ; but the accident of falling over the scraper could not be made attributable to her. The worthy Chairman then commented on the other parts of the evi dence, and the Jury, after tire minutes' deliberation, returned a ver dict of Guilty against both prisoners. The sentence was deferred to this day, on account of the lateness of the hour. The Court was very crowded, sod the hall vu thronged with fe males anxiously waiting the result. MELANCHOLY OCCURRENCE. Duman Pontes ()tries.—On Saturday morning • Mr. John Ileoulevek Tegjert, a lieutenant on half-pay, and a yarns lad, Mr. Thomas LaiMeht West, son of a country elergyinau, went out fishing in • gig boat, and when lying to in Poolbeg the boat upset, and both were unhappily drowned. A rumour having gone abroad that the boat was run down by a collier from Irwin, called the James, and that the two unfortuncte gentlemen acre abandoned to their miserable fate, without any exertions on the I part of the master and crew of the James to save them, notwith standing their entreaties for help, Friday the friends of the de ceased had the master and pilot, together with the ship's crew, bwought before the niagistratea of this of After a very strict examination of the ship's people, separate l y and on "nth, it an • reared that when within thirty yards of the boat they saw it upset, in consequence of both the persona in it having gone to one tide, and that the Captain cried out to the Pilot, " (sets( tiod, what can we do to save them ;" but the Pilot replied, " they could do nothing, for if they attempted to put about theywould loss the vessel, and that the two persons were already gone . " The Captain also staid, that he never was so affected in his life as at seeing the melancholy situation of the two persons, for it very forcibly reminded him of an escape he himself had from a briny grave, by means of a rope which, when he had risen a third time, quite exhausted, he was able to catch between his teeth ; and he declared, with gres,e apparent fiavnur and feeling, that lie would have willingly sacrificed any personal comfort, or pecuniary advantage to have saved the men, for, notwithstanding a long sea lite, they were the first he ever saw hurried to eternity in that way. lie added, that in an instant they lost sight of them as the vessel was going at seven knots an hour. The Pilot. George laude, in answer to oeveral questions as to why he made ro effort to save the gentlemen, re . plied, that lie knew it would be of no use to endanger the vessel and liver of the gee, as the vessel had but one anchor, and it would not be sufficient to bold them, if they bought to, and then they had no stern boat, the one on deck was tilled with lumber, and by the time it would be emptied and lowered, he knew it would be useless to look after the men in distress. If they had • boat at the stern, he had no doubt but they might have saved the two per. sons; but this tide was ebbing at four knots an Nibs, the wood was blowing • brisk gale at S.S.IV., and if they bad put about they would Mina have run on the Bun, or grounded until reset tide, and if a gale of wind tame on in the mean time, they would have been lost. The pilot added, that one of the persons appeared to struggle for a little time. The friends of the deceased observed, that Mr. Taggart was an excellent swimmer, and knew well the management of a boat. It ass stated, that the master of a vessel, when he takes on beard, ceases to have any controul or authority in the norm or navigation of the vs-siel. Alderman Fr.rart ma, after 'carious questions to the crew, Who atm underavnt a WICK errs's-examination by t of the deceased, said, that from the evittetce It appeared tunate accident could not be attributed to the ves,(l. but pearcel there was a total want of exertion on the part of e .ave the pnor gcntlanen ; and whether what he advanced fence might be a sufficient apology for such appartl.t manity, he (the Alderman) wa► not siifficientiy aifairs to be able to determine ; but he advised th, irterd% der, ased to apply to the Ballast Board, who would t.a%c sufficiently investigated.
