'freir misery at length became so extreme, that on Fri day, the let instant, Edward, though in a dying irate, crawled to the °veneers' office, and on stating his situation, Mr. Scott, one oe the overseers, gave him a shilling, and wished him to go into the workhouse, telling him that it wuuld be much better f i r him,• and Mat when he was sufficiently more:eel lie should be sent to his set .l.-nent in Ireland ; but he refused to go into the workhouee, pre. herring to die amongst his relations. thi Saturday Thomas went to the ONVISCETS . office, and being relieved with one shilling, was g edee d to f oetid the Hoard on Monday, and in case he should be ehotble to do so, to send his aunt; but the tear of being sent to Ire land 'feinted him from attending. Edward, however, went in the e /citing, and received another shilling, and the overseer told him t •at he wield visit hint. On Monday the overseer visited the cel l.- and eteleavourort to prestall upon the sick 'mettle to go to the eorehecae, bat they refused. The limn asked lion for relief ; he Mid het that she seemed to have many decent articles of furniture thaw her, and P./ the young men were her nephews, she ought to do a imeihing fur them.

The three unfortunate beings lay In one miserable bed, in the damp hack cellar, and the ill. fated girl had the horror it lyigg in close contact with her brother's corpse until death put a Period to bet sufferings. As soon as the real. situation of these wretched victims to poverty and discas • was fully known, relief rouredlnespon them front all quarters. but it was then too late as seguded Inthiraret and Mary.

The commotion excited amongst the lower orders of the Irish by the nand-bills we have described was ass great, that the police thought it recessive- to take one of the venders of them into cus tody. Ile was brought befare the sitting Magistrate on Thursday Moaning, and. after receiving a teptimand, and a caution as to his 110011ses in future, was discharged. His name is Richard Butter. north.

Before lie took to this trade, he applied for re nal, when he was rota that it was a shame that a voting man like him should apply for parochial relief. He mentioned the less of Lis men, and was told that he had not lost his wits, and that he neat t e et his living by them ; and, said lie, I have endeavoured to get a living ever since. I should be glad if I could get any other impinynoint, for I here ruptured myself with shunting out the con nets of ray hills. It' I had not cried papers I might have starved. Ten is a curious instance of • man saving himself from starving by publianing an account of the starvation of his fellow-creatures. We understand that as soon as these hand-bills made their cap. ?rennet, the Bormiehreeve and Constables instituted immediate legu e es as to the truth of the statement they cent tined, when they teund that the unfortunate Huthens had died from the epidemic eicese. and not from want.

MIDDLESEX St.SSIONS, SEPT. 16. Joseph Lattrer:y was put to the bar for an assault on John 31• David, a soldier in the 3d regiment of Guards, on the Bth of May. Mr. BRODERICK said this was a public prosecution instituted to protect soldiers In the execution of their arduous duties. some soldiers whom he should call went to a public-house after one of their comrades who wtts absent from his quarters, where was the prisoner and others. They would have gut the man home quietly, and actually had him in the street in custody when he was rescued from them. The man was captured a second time, when the pri. inner excited a mob of thirty persons again to rescue him. Great credit was due to the soldiers in not drawing their side arms in de fence of themselves in the execution of the duty they had to per form. The prisoner abused them in the foulest language, jostled them that the soldier in custody might get away, and spit on one of them. The injury sustained was of no sort of importance; the prosecution was instituted to teach others that tiddlers were not to be assaulted with imptuMy. Ile should call— Alexander FOUii4, corporal in the 2e: battalion of the Ed Regi. men; of Guards—John 31'David is a private of the '2d battalion; on the night of the 9th of May, he was absent front his quarters, at the 3iews Barracks, tipsy, at a public-house in Clare-market. Wit ! nest made Sisson and Glover, two privates, get out of their beds at lialftast ten at night to go with him to fetch 31'David ; witness went into the public-hoose by himself, leaving the two others at the door; there were about a dozen persons in the tap-room ; he took the man out. and when they got to the door, the prisoner and others surrounded them and got the man away, swearing he should not be taken, and using various abusive epithets. They got the malt again, when they were a second time jostled and pushed; the prisoner get between them, desiring they would let the man go ; this was at 12 o'clock ; WitlleAS ordered the men to draw their bayonets, but they were not used. The ptisoner followed them into Great Russell-street, where he advised him to no home. and let them do their duty. The prisoner and about 30 others kept fol lowing them With the foulest language; the prisoner spat on the breast and back nf 31• David, railing them lobsters. &c. So great was the difficulty of keeping oft' the mob, that witness em ployed the watchman to follow in the rear. 31`David and Sisson confirmed the testimony of Foulis. The July found the primla' Guilty. The Co lIT said it was a ease deservingof punishment, as an ea- I ample to others. 'faking into consideration the two months ins prisonment that the prisoner had suffered, the sentence of the Court was, iha: he be imprisoned in the House of Correction one month I more. - John Fuller was indicted by the oafish authorities of Padding ton, for an tumuli on John Ifeys,la constable, while in the execu tion of his duty. There was a second count la the indictment for • common assault. Mr. Avor. mire opened his address by promising to occupy but a small portion of the time of the Court, and described the prisoner as detect& in pillaging handfuls of nuts in Paddington market, when the man at the bar shouted out he was not near the spot; he was charged with an assault at WhitechapeL Mr. Adolphus was inclined to pay little attention to the prieoner till his assertion was backed by the ecoseentor, who said be was nut the man. An officer was sent t , t the New Prison to bring up the right John Fuller. Mr. Adolphus said, in the time of Robespierre one John Fuller would have been enough ; right or wrong he voted have beta sent to the guillotine. In a short time the other John Fuller was put to the bar, and Mr. Adolphus resumed his address. John hays is a constable of Paddington ; on the let of Septem. her he was on duty In Paddington market; a cart was standing there with hazel nuts, which were being sold to the retailers ; be übseived the prisoner several times go to the off aide of the cart and help himself with the nuts, while the countryman's attention was drawn by his customers. Witness went to the prisoner and told hint he bud bad a pretty good run. sad to go away. The pri. saner '• who are you? I shan't go." Witness replied " I'll let you know who I am." and hit him with his cane. The prisoner called hint a body-snatching, took the cane from him, broke it Over his head, hurled the pieces away, and then struck witness in the face with his fist. liretnees got the assistance of Bradbury, the watch.home keeper, and the prisoner was taken to the watch. house. Bradbury confirmed the last witness in his testimony. The prisoner was sentenced to one month's imprisonment in the' ll,iuse of Correction. Thomas Mee. a boy about years old, was indicted for steal. ing two tame lire rabbits from a neighbour, at No. 7, Laurence. street, Chelsea, on the nth of August. The prosecutor had four rabbits in s hutch; on the 29th, at tout In the morning, the prisoner was seen to get over the wall and seal two of them t tie nest awning, about the same hour, the pro. aecutor was awakened b 7 a wells under hie window, and got up to learn what it was, but little suspected that the same thief had toms again so soon. %%lie he was running wand to the back of his house, his next door neighbour had thrown up the sash of his dow, en which the prisoner threw down the rabbits and got over the well. The prosecutor intended to hive tabu the hey for the first loffence. but he kept out of the way. The boy denied being near du place. Ills mother said her husband was a waterman, and that her son had got up that morning at titnr o'clock to get the boar ready ; that there were two other boys with hint, one of whom might have stolen the rabbits. She told the same story to Mr. Gregory that sou told here to•day. Mr. Costar said it was a barefaced invention of the mother'a, which would bring greater punishment on the boy ; he might thank her for it ; she had brought it all on him. The ;lodgment of the Court was, that he be confined three months_in the House of Cor rection to hard labour, and be whipped. Charles Flight pleaded guiliy to stealing a quart pot from Mr. Holston, of the Feathers' public-house, Milbank, on the 11th of Jul! lite officer detected him with the pot opposite the Penitentiary at halt-past nine at night. lit aotweepience of the prisoner pleading guilty, and the confine ment he had already undergone, the Chairman sentenced him only to 10 days longer confinement. Mr. Costar remarked on the impropriety of housekeepers hang ing publican's' pots on the rails and other open places as a great temptation. They had had a great many tried at the Sessions of late for stealing them term such situations, the punisment fur which was always very little, as the Court considered it a great temptation to the nereettitous. Mary Seale was indicted for stealing a shawl from the shoulders of Elizabeth Jane Journk, a black woman, on the 2d of Septets. lice, in Drury-lane. Journie is a traveller with children's little books; she never saw the prisoner before the of September; the prisoner naked her to treat her with gin, and because she would not, she stole her shawl oil her shoulders. The officer saw the prisoner near Illaelentore-street, with the shawl under her arm, and when lie took her in custody, at the desire of the proseentrix, the prisoner threw the shawl on the ground. The prisoner said, site was in company with the prusecuerix the night before, drinking, changed half-a-etown, lent the prosecutrix a shilling, who, next day, gave her the shawl to pawn as the officer came tip. Mr. CONST—T think it one of the most impudent robberies I ever heard of. You ask her forgin, and because site does not choose to give it to you, you take her shawl, which is found under your arm by the officer. I never heard of the like. The sentence on you is, that you he confined in the Ilouse of Correction for two months, and hard labour. Julia Monk anti Peter Chapman, two sweeps, were put to the bar on three indictment', for steeling two publican's pots, found bent in a soot bag, and an apron found in the ha of Monk, stolen from a kitchen where they applied to sweep. They were sentenced to two months' hard labour in the House of Correction for the first offence ; the same term in the same place for the second offence, to fcturnenee at the expiration of the first ; and another two months each, in the sante place, at the end of the second two months.

MATRIMONIAL FRACAS IN THE Ai/ELM - IL BOW-6TIIEF.T.—The night constable of St. Martin's watch. house, on presenting his charge-beak on Saturday to the presiding Magistrate (Mr. Halls), stated, that a gentleman, whose name he did not knew. had been given in custody the preceding night, for creating a riot and diaturbance at Tetsall's Hotel, in the Adeiphi, under cirtannstanees of an extraordinary nature The gentleman charged had been bailed out of the watch-house at an early hour of the morning, and did not now appear. The persons, however, who became his soretimwere in nttendance, and would probably account for the gentleman's non-appearance. Wright, the proprietor of an hotel in Adam street, Adeiphi, and -- Goodrich, Esq. a gentleman.at present residing in that house, then came forward, and admitted they had become bail for the individual who was confined in the watch-horse on the preced ing night, and in default or' his appearance they were ready to take the consequences, whatever they might be. Mr. Hanna observed, that the ni;eht-constable should have taken down the name in his charge-book ; but as it appeared to be only a common case of assault, the bail might at present consider them. selves at liberty. with the undeestendtog that they should be held responsible in the event of the charge being pressed by the com plainants at any suture time. The parties then !eft the office. This was all that transpired before the Magistrates ; but a Sunday Paper has published the following facts:— Oa tVednesdity night, Mr, Lambert, a respectable solicitor. drove up in a coach to Tetsall's Hotel, and informed the proprietor that he wanted accommodations for two ladies, whose principal ob jects were renrement and comfort. The request was ireanediately complied with, and the ladies were introduced as Mrs. Haydn, sett., and Mrs. Hayden. jun. They were escorted to the house by Haydon, Esq., of Grove House, Exeter, the son of the elder and husband of the younger lady. The latter was stated to be a ward of Chancery, and heiress to an itnmense fortune: but this ap pears to be, at Iciest as regard& the first assertion, .perfeetly erro neous, her father, Sir Charles Blake. of Galway, being still livirg• The young lady, it seems, conttaey to the advice of her family and friends, bestowed her hand and heart nu Haydon, after a very short acquaintance. They had been married only same mon ths,when Sir Charles Blake's solicitors were intitrmed that Mr. Haydon had it not in Iris power to fulfil the splendid eng.igements by which he had deceived the young lady, in regard to a matrimonial settle. ment, as the extent of his property was about 30W. • year, and which, in fact, lie derived by virtue of a former tn.arriage, Iris first wife being still living! This discovery being communicated to Sir Charles Blake, the solicitor, received instructions to remove the lady front under the control of Mr. Haydon, who. if this fact could be established, had no longer any lawful control over her person!' and liberty. Mr. Haydon being informed of the steps about to be taken, refused at first to deliver up his wife ; at the same time ad mitting his farmer marriage, but contending that Ire had obtained a divorce six years ago. The solicitors, on inquiry, ascertained that such divorce had been sought in the regular way, but was . never finally ratified ; and, consequently, that the first marriage wan binding—the second a nullity. It was therefore insisted that the young lady should be plseed from under the juris diction of Mr. Haydon, until the validity of his right as her husband should be definitively settled. Mr. ilaydon rather reluctantly araeuieseed in this arrangement. with a special proviso that Mrs. Hayden should have the protection of his mother, and Tetsall's Hotel was finally selected for their abode until the young lady was given up to her own friends. Thia point was conceded, with a specific understanding that Mr. Haydon was to abstain from visiting his wife pending the investigation, in which he agreed, and the Solicitors were in hourly expectation of Sir Charles Blake's arrival, when Mr. Haydon, impatient of the re. straint imposed on him, violated his engagement on Friday even. ing, and presented himself at Tetsall's, where he dined in company whit his mother and - wife—drank claret, talked of future happiness, and proposed stopping for the night, when they were rather, mal apropos, interrupted by the appearance of a gentleman, who as sumed the guardianship of the young lady, pro tent. Illnflardoit's vioNted engagement was referred to—his invalidated authority de clared—and his immediate departure insisted on—all which he stoutly resisted. Hot and high words were exchanged, until, at length, Mr. Haydon lost his patience, and a blow was struck, which consigned him to the watch-house, from whence he was liberated by the above-named persons becoming sureties for his appearance to meet the charge of assault. On regaining his liberty, he returned to Tetsall's, where he passed the night with his expectant anxious wife; and, after setting his bill at an early hour in the maering, the trio, Mr. Haydon, his wife, and mother, adjourned to Wright's Hotel, where they took breakfast, and soon after lef t London in a post-chaise and four, but their destination is ucknowo. A BURGLAR SHOT. Qu FEN-S(111AR T.1 7 -6;$;1;71:1;;JO;pAfl r oodltcad, a notorious character, who stands committed for threatening the life of Sophia Surgey, a witness ct the late Guildford Assizes against a compa nion of the prisoner's, was brought up, charged with a burglary in the house of John beach Bennett, Esq. The prosecutor deposal that he resides at Merton, in Surrey. On the night of the 21:,.h ult., his house was fastened up at the usual time, and about half-past three o'clock in the morning he was alarmed by the springing of an alarm bell ; he instantly rose from his bed, took up a fowling-piece, and expecting that the robbers would cross the lawn, he fired the piece low, which had been loaded with powder and from 10 to 12 slugs. The distance might be from 15 to 20 yards from where he saw two persons. He examined the house, and ascertained that the premises had been entered by the kitchen, the robbers having forced the window-shutter with a cen tre-bit. There was a metal watch stolen, and at day.light he found a lantern under a hedge which had been broken down. William Herring said lie mended the lantern now produced for the prisoner. John Levies; No. 27, Charles.street, Westminster, surgeon to Thothill-fields prison,traid the prisoner was placed in the sick ward on the 30th of August ; he told him lie had been shot. On exami nation he discovered three wounds on his back ; two were grazed, and the other was about an inch and a half deep. The latter wound ran in the direction downwards, towards the spine, from the left shoulder. On first seeing his back lie said the wounds bad been dressed at the Hospital ; from the appearance of them they had not been recently done ; he closely examined the deep wound, but could not find say shot. George Poole, an officer, said dist on the 211th ult, he appre hended the prisoner on a peace-warrant, for threatening the life of Sophia Surgey, who gave evidence at the late Guildford Assizes against an intimate acquaintance of the prisoner's, tried for bur glary. A few diva afterwards he understood that the prisoner had been shot hi the back, in consequence of which he, with Cooper, a brother officer, instantly ecmmenced an inquiry, suspecting he was concerned in some robbery, and very soon after ascertained that two persons were shot in committing a burglary at Merton, in Surrey. Suspecting his clothes were shot through, witness examined his waistcoat, which he found bloody, also two shot-holes in it, the size of the balls produced. He was fully 'committed. - New Srsctes or Rosa RRY.—On Friday night, or early on Saturday morning, Brydges-strest, Charles-street, and other thoroughfares in the neighbourhood of Covent-gar den, were visited by some thieves, whose depredations con sisted in depriving almost all the houses in the vicinity of the various brass plates attached to the doors. Mr. W. West, the comedian, Mr. Edwards, Mr. Kinsela, the tailor, 1)ow, bootmaker, and the doors of a variety of other inhabitants, were divested of these useful and neces sary appendages, with which the plunderer escaped un- i "discovered.

Upon the discovery of his r: treat, the Governor of the prison im. mediately despatched to London a full description of his person, and offered a reward for his apprehension. It appeared that Jem, after making his way to London, sought for protection among some of his former associates, in Golden-lime. in the parish of St. Luke's, " the needy villain's general home." Jent was not muck out in his glie3t as to the protection and hospitality Ire expected in that quarter, for he reinained in perfect security from the time of his arrival aatil last Thursday night, when John Vann, one of the Bow-suet: patrol, an active officer, whose naire we have often bed occasion to mention before, having some slight knowledge of Jem's person pre viously, which had been strengthened by the description sent to London from the country, went to the Lion and Lamb, in Golden line, am! there found Jem enjotim hinatall with a few " chosen friends." The officer immediately Wok him inm custody. when Jem made a powerful and desperate resistance. The officer told him that the charge against him was being concerned In a rubbery which had been committed that day. This had the effect of quieting his l.Terkfir) alarm ; and with the assistance of a watchman, and placing a pistol to bins head, Vann succeeded in handcuffing him. The following day he was brought up before Mr. Twyturd, at Worship-rareet Ogler, when his face bore evident proofs of his resistance ; and after some interrogatories he 11:1$ minded, that communications might be mad: ce the Gavc:aor a; the prison in Bedford, which Vann that night despatched; and ore Saturday last the Governor arrived in town, and after haring iden tided Jem's person in Clerkenwell gaol, proceeded to Worship street office, to obtain his discharge, which Mr. Osborn granted. Jena was shortly afterwards accommodated Maim attain round ids legs, which being affixed to a similar instrument, fastened to the roof of one of the coaches, he, accompanied by an *Aker, took his departure from this " gay metropolis, for his old abode in Bed ford gaol.
