Samuel Clough, a labourer in the East India Com pany's service, was brought before the Lout) MAYOR for final examination, charged with having robbed the Company's warehouses of goods to a vcry large amount. On Saturday week the prisoner, who %vas well acquainted with the construction-of the warehouses and the mode of arranging the property therein, managed to conceal himself in one of the tea-ware houses, and patiently watched for a good opportu nity, when he cut, and bored, and punched his way through sundry floors and roofs until he reached one of the depositories in which the silk goods are kept. Determined to do the job properly, he opened seve ral of the packages, and selected from an infinite variety some of the most choice articles. !laving tied them up, he broke out through the roof over his head, and dropped them down into an oh-cure yard in Arrow-alley. He then prepared to descend himself, for which purpose he fastened a rope to a chimney, but here his good fortune deserted him. Lly some mismanagement he tumbled into a tank of • water, and he.was soon afterwards apprehended. The prisoner was fully committed. Powell, a younvman, nearly out of his time as an apprentice to a respectable slopseller in Houndsditch, was charged with having stolen a number of gold seals in the shop of Mr. EdWard Taylor, jeweller, 25, Leadenhall-street. The prisoner had, it was stated by his master, seduced a young girl, with whom he lived. After various irregularities committed to support this ex pence, which his master told hins, would one (1, 1 lead him to Newgate, he absconded about a month ago. Since that time efforts had been made to find him, but he was only heard of when apprehended upon this charge of robbery. The prisoner was fully committed to Newgate.

Victor Alphonse Daumas Dupin, ci-derant officer and paymaster of one of the regiments of the old Imperial Guard, and a Knight of the Legion of Honour, being suspected of the murders of a young man of the name of Prudhomme, and of his still more youthful wife (only I 6 years of age,) at the valley of Montmorency, on the 24th of January last, was pursued by the police, whom he baffled, and effected his escape to Milan, whence he wrote to his sister, announcing that at length he began to breathe—having, while still on French ground, every moment expected to be captured :—" every leaf that fell seemed to him the tread of the officers of justice." This letter destroyed him. It was intercepted, and in consequence, upon the applica tion of the French Minister, Dupin was arrested, and handed over to some French police-officers, by whom he was conveyed a prisoner to Paris. Shortly after his arrival in Paris, he was transferred to Ver sailles, and brought to trial before the tribunal of that district (the Seine et Oise,) in which the beautiful valley of Montmorency is situated. On his trial he defended himself with great ingenuity. He confessed that ho had gone to the house (a small inn) of the unfortunate Prudhomme with a compa nion, determined to rob it, and having gone out for a moment, he found that his companion had, in his absence, murdered the newly-married owners of the auberge with an axe ; that he had par ticipated in the plunder, but with reluc tance; and that fear of his accomplice (who has not yet been apprehended) had prevented his denouncing him, &c. Notwithstadding this story, Dupin was convicted, and condemned to death; but the report of the proceedings not having been duly signed by an officer of the Court, the judgment was annulled, and Dupin was transmitted for trial to Paris, being in a different district, and was, on the 31st of October, again convicted, and sentenced to death. Ile appealed to the Court of Cassation merely, as he himself declared on Thursday last, in compliance with the entreaties of his afflicted rela tions. His appeal was rejected on the 24th ult., and Dupin was ordered for execution on Wednesday last. Ileace resulted a circumstance truly French. On Tuesday he recollected that the day fixed for his execution was the 2d of December, the anniver sary of the battle of Austerlitz, in which glorious field he had received the Cross of the Legion of Ho nour for his good conduct in that celebrated conflict. He therefore applied for an extension of his life for 24 hours, not wishing to terminate his miserable ' career on the anniversary of that day on which he had been decorated in the field of honour ! This request was complied with, and early on Thursday he was transferred from the Bicetre to the Concier gerie. At a few minutes after four, the cavalcade entered the Place du Greve, the culprit, as usual, attended by a priest, to whose exhortations, how ever, he was evidently incapable of attending, being apparently wholly lost to a sense of all surrounding objects. His countenance was pale, even to ghast liness, and though visibly attenuated by long impri sonment, his figure was that of a well-formed man of the middle size. Arrived at the foot of the guillo tine, he rose from his seat, and descended the ve hicle with a feeble step, but without assistance. A delay of a few seconds took place at the foot of the scaffold, after which lie ascended, and being placed under the fatal axe, he breathed his last within less than two minutes from the time of his arrival at the Place du Greve. The concourse of spectators was immense, of whom females of the lowest order form majority. --P ar i s P a p er . ed a great and disgusting W. E.

GUILDHALL William Turner, charged with burglarionsly breaking and entering the hat-manufactory belonging to Mr. Armstrong, of Jewin-street-crescent, under went a final examination yesterday before Mr. Al derman LUCAS, and was fully committed for trial. A genteel-looking couple named Thomas Tonikins and Elizabeth Bishop, were charged with behaviog in a disorderly manner in the street. A watchman of Blackfriars heard a cry of " Watch !" and ran over to King Edward-street, at the back of Bridge-street, where a person ordered him to take the prisoners into his charge, who were lying together along the pavement. They were both in some degree intoxicated, and he took them into custody. Mr. Tomkins (who described himself to be a dentist), in reply to sorr.e questions by the Magis trates, said that he and the young Jai) , were well known to each other ; that they had met in company last night, and he had undertaken to see her safely home. He supposed the lady*as affected with what she had drank, and dipped down, and that he, in attempting to raise her, had fallen also; but he - declared that he remembered nothing of the cir cumstance. The Alderman fined them ss. each for being BOW-STREET. Yesterday two pauper boys, apparently not more than between six and seven years old, were brought forward by Mr. Earle, clerk to the churchwardens and overseers of the parish of St. Martin-in-the- Fields, for the purpose of having them examined by the Magistrates, previous to their being bound ap prentice to a master chimney-sweeper. Mr. MiNsllum, observed that they were both very young, and that one of them appeared to be in a delicate state of health. He wished that they could be put out to any other business, and that the ne cessity could be dispensed with of apprenticing children of such tender years to a trade so revolting to humanity. As a proof of the feeling which existed in high quarters upon the subject, he would just mention the fact, that Mr. Peel had lately ordered circulars to be sent to the various public departments under his controul, apprising the principals of his wish that they should emploi sweeping machines, in preference to climbing boys. In answer to a question by Sir IL BIRNIE, it was stated by Mr. Earle that both of the children were orphans. Mr. MINSUULL as the sitting Magistrate, would certainly take time to consider. It was very strange that St. Martin's parish, more than any other, in the district of the office, should, upon so many recent instances, adopt this method of disposing of their pauper children. Here the matter ended. John Larcomb, the owner and driver of a fly waggon that plies between Londou and Stockbridge, in Hampshire, was brought in custody by two police constables, charged with basing fired a pistol from his waggon, about seven o'clock that morning in High Holborn; and also with having assaulted the constables, who, in the discharge of their duty, had searched the waggon and taken him into custody. The prisoner was fined 15s. for the offence. L A M BETH-ST REET. A porter, named John Harris, was brought before Mr. WALKER yesterday at this office, charged with the following brutal assault : The defendant resided somewhere in Rosemary lane, and a distress warrant had been levied upon kis goods ; and upon the broker's going to his house to learn if he intended to pay, the defendant seized him, threw him down, jumped upon him, and inflicted a most serious injury upon him. The assault was most clearly proved, and the Magistrate said it was a most savage assault, and he should inflict the severest penalty of the law, which was, that he should pay 51. to the King, or go to prison for two months. UNION-HALL. Yesterday a sailor, named William Bell, charged a journeyman cooper, named West, with seducing his wife to elope and cohabit with him ; and also with inflicting a very serious assault upon him (Bell), when he went to claim some property that his faithless wife had carried away with her. The sailor said—" When I walked into the room where they, my wife and the cooper, took up their abode, I found them sitting together as com fortable as you please. So says Ito him, come, shipmate, I wants my wilt: and my goods back, that you bolted with. I'm blowed, said he, if you haves the wife back; but you may have every thing else that belongs to you. Well, said I, if that's what you mean, keep the wife with all my heart, and Fll take my goods; so, your Worship, I began to unkiver the bed, what belonged to me, and with that the cooper desired me to be quiet. I then sat down for a little, and my wife complaining that her stomach was queerish, 1 sent out for a pint of rum, and gave her a glass to cheer her spirits ; we then had one all round, and after that I began to pull my bed off the bedstead to take it away, when West came behind me and struck me a blow on the head with a mallet, that knocked me down; and, while I was on the ground, he mailetted away at me, and there I lay,bleeding like a pig, until my cries brought the people of the house into the room. My wife was sitting by all the time, and did not offer to prevent his striking me, though I have always used her with kindness." The wife rushed into the office, and said, " I left you because I loved him better." Mr. CHAKBERs said, she was a shameless creature, and ordered the cooper to pay a fine of 31. ; and in default thereof, he was committed for one month to Brix; on. The sailor lilt the dice to get possession of his property, and he told his wife that for aught he cared she might go to the devil. WINTER ASSIZES. HERTFORD, DEC. 8. Robert Cooper, (aged 30), a thatcher, was charged with maliciously setting fire to an outhouse, and a part of his father's house, at Baldoek. This case has excited an unusual degree of in terest in the county. It will be remembered, that within the last eight or nine months, no less than five attempts have been made to set the town of Baldock on fire. At the last Assizes for this county bills were preferred against fire men in consequence of these at.tempts. No bills were found, and the prisoners were consequently discharged. The present prisoner was the chief evidence against them. It appeared by statement made by a host of wit nesses, that on Saturday night the first of August, between twelve and one o'clock, the out-house and faggot-stack were destroyed, and a part of the dwelling-house in which the prisoner's father and other members of his family reside, considerably damaged. The fire breaking out in different parts of the premises at the same time caused a strong presumption that it was the work of ineendiaries. The prisoner had been drinking that night at the White Horse at Baldock, until ten minutes to twelve o'clock. He then left, taking with him a pipe tobacco which he had just purchased of the land lady of the house. lie was shortly after met in a place called Foot-ball-close, (situate at the back, and forming a sort of by-road to the premises set on fire), by a man named King, whom the prisoner had appeared against on a similar charge at the last Assizes. On the alarm of fire being given, one of the inmates of the house ram down stairs, and sur prised the prisoner in the act of breaking a chair to pieces. He did not attempt to render any assist ance, but stood a careless observer of the progress of the flames. Mr. DOWLING, at the conclusion of the case for the prosecution, submitted that the evidencewas in sufficient to cause the prisoner to be called on for a defence, and the Jury returned a verdict of Not THE OLD FLEET-MARKET AND THE FLEET RIVER. The stalls of the old Fleet-market, from the end of New Bridge-street to Holborn-bridge, are nearly cleared away, and the whole of the ground is now almost a vacant space. By a late order of the Com t of Common Council, it appears that the whole of Fleet-street is to be cleared from the present nui sance of the hackney-coaches now standing therein, and they are for the future to stand in the old Flee:- market. Plevions, however, to ibis arrangement being carried into effect, it is said that the present state of the large common sewer, through which the Fleet river runs from Holborn-bridge into the Thames at Blackfriars-bridge, a distance of about three fur longs, is found to be such, that considerable appre hensions are entertained for the solidity of the sides and arch of the tunnel; and that the Corporation of the city of London will have to open the whole dis tance, repair the brick-work of the sides, and throw a new arch over that part of the Fleet-river already mentioned. If this proposition be carried into effect, much time and great expenee will be required. But that our readers may form some idea of the nature of such a work, it may be necessary to state that the tunnel is at least 11 feet wide, and of such a height, that at spring tiles the water in several places is between eight and nine feet deep; astd it is no uncommon thing on these occasions, with a south-westerly wind, for a Thames wherry to be driven up the Fleet-river as high as Holborn-bridge, where there is a basin large enough for any coal barge on the Thames to swing round in. The work - of the arch and sides are so soft, that the watermen who go up the tunnel for their boats, have no difficulty in taking with their bare hands a con siderable quantity of brick-work out of the sides of the building; and the whole above the water's edge is covered with slime and filth to the depth of six or eight inches. The air in the tunnel is remarkably foul, and the watermen, when they have occasion to enter it, do so in a boat, and prefer a lantern to a torch to light their way, and by these means drag the drifted wherry from Holborn-bridge down to the Thames. CANALS AND RAILWAYS.—The conversion of canals into the more promising purposes of railways, seems to be attracting attention. We have heard some observations made by a scientific gentleman, who is of opi nion, that without much expense a very desirable project could be accomplished. In the first place, he suggests that the Union Canal, which has not a single lock between Edinburgh and Port Downie, at Falkirk, could be easily made available. The road can be extended westward to Glasgow along the face of the inclined high ground, with out much cutting, and although the opposition by the Ca nal Companies to any rival conveyance might throw a bar in the way of steam-carriages, yet their own interest may at no distant period point to the new mode of communica tion, as a matter that calls for its adoption by themselves. —Scotsman. EFFECTS OF SEA AlR.—Those who fre quent the sea coast in September are not long in discover ing that their best dyed black hats become of a rusty brown ; and similar effects are produced on some other colours. The brown is, in fact, rust. Most, if not all, the usual black colours, have iron for a basis, the black oxide of which is developed by galls, logwood, er other substances containing gallic acid. Now the sea air con tains a proportion of the muriates over which it is wafted, and these coming into contact with anything dyed black, part with their hydrochloric (nturiatic) acid, and form brown hydrochlorate of iron, or contribute to form the brown or red oxide, called rust. The gallie acid, indeed, from its superior affinity, has the strongest hold of the iron ; but the incessant action of the sea air, loaded with muriates, partially overcemes this, in the same way as any acid, even of inferior affinity to the gallie, when put upon black stuff, will turn it brown.

MUNDEN, THE ACTOR'S, BROTHER.- Among the numerous applicants of paupers for relief from the parish of St. Andrew, Holborn, yesterday, was an old man, brother to a celebrated comedian, now re tired. MUNDEN, the applicant, is now an infirm man of 65 years of age. He was bred a pressman, and has bean employed for many years by several respectable printers; but latterly, by reason of infirmities, and the introduction of machinery, he has been less successful in getting em ployment, and for the last twelvemonths he was out of work. He was accompanied by his wife, aged 75. They were well calculated to excite compassion, evidently in a starving state, infirm with age, and thinly clothed, but clean in their persons. They have of late received small assistance from the parish, but now, having parted with all their clothes excepting what they had on, and all their moveables even their bed, without money, meat, or cre dit, without firing, and sleeping on the boards, they could no longer endure their hard situation, and implored to be admitted to the workhouse. When they made the re quest they both shed tears. They have resided 25 years in the parish, and were well spoken of by the officers. Mr. I3ARTELLOT, one of the overseers, on his own re sponsibility, gave them an order for immediate admission to the house. The old woman shed tears in abundance, and prayed for many blessings on him. She inquired if she should be allou:ed to attend Church, and, on being answered in the affirmative, withdrew to make arrange ments for going directly to the workhouse, apparently with much thankful: a. John illorri4 alias William', a mid,i!e-aged man, was indicted for having obtained, by a :urged written order, two pair of black silk smelting;,smelting;,from the house of Messrs. Bailer, Millar, and Co., silk-mer cers, St. Paul's Church-yard. The prisoner, it appeared, had gone to the shop of the prosecutors and preeented an order to the fol lowing effect : " Please give the bearer two pairs of black silk stockings, of a strong texture. "G. BAINURSDGE. " Queen-square, Nov. 20." The prisoner represented that this order was iu the hand-writing of Miss Bainbridge, daughter of the banker of that name, who resides in St. Paul's Church-yerd, and two pairs of silk stock nes, of the value of Gs. 3d. each, were, without any suspicion, given to the prisoner. Upon subsequent inquiry, however, it turned out that the lady in .juestiozi was in Persia, and that no person named "G. Bain bridge" had a house ia Queen-squate fer the last two years. An officer was then directed to leek after the prisoner, but it was not until he had pre sented another forged order for groeeriee, purporting to bear the signature of Lord Carrington', that the prisoner was apprehended. The order, it appeared, was presented by the prisoner, at the house of Messrs. North, Simpson, Graham, suit Cu., the eminent grocers and tea-dealers, ie Uridge-street, Blackfriars. The case respecting the silk stockings was, however, so conclusive, that it was not eons!. dered necessary to try the prisoner upon the lattre indictment. He was immediately found guilty, and having been called up for judgment, The Learned SEEJEANT said, the sentence of the Court was, that he be transported beyond the seas for the term of seven years. PRICE 7D. NEW COURT. Julia Dias, a Jewess, was indicted for stealitkr three half-sovereigns, three half-crowns, and 12 shillings, from the person of James Grosvenor, on the 17th of October lust. The prosecutor was passing down Whitechapel, about mid•day, when the prisoner and another " lady" met him, and requested him to giro them something to drink. He went to the wine-coulte, and treated them, after which he retired with /ho " Jew girl's" companion to a house of a certain de scription. He put his money for security in hip coat pocket, which he put on the table, but the prisoner came in and took it away ; the other girl was con victed, and transported at the last Sessions. The Jury found the prisoner guilty, and tlio COMMoN SERJEANT sentenced her to be trap-ported for 14 years. Wm. Clark was indicted for uttering two half-crow:.s with intent to cheat and deft-vat), the same being coun terfeited. Mr. ScA KLETT stated the ease for the prosecution, and called several witnesses, who established the prisoner's guilt, and he was sentenced to be kept to hard labour for six calendar months. Elizabeth Raddick was convicted of a similar misde-. ateanour, and it being her second offence, she was sen tenced to be imprisoned for twelve months, and kept to hard labour, and at the expiration thereof to find emetics for her good behaviour for the term of two years. RESPITE OP RECOGNIZANCE. At the end of the Sessions, Mr. BARRY movt`d the Court upon the affidavit of Mr. Wrench, whr.se fine of 40/. was yesterday ordered to be enforce,;. The deponent swore that he was not absent flout Court, from fear, fee, reward, or with a hope there by to thwart the ends of justice, &c. The COSISION SERJEANT remained of the Fame opinion as on yesterday, and refused to caLcid tha estreat, but observed that Mr. Wrench might appeal to the Court of Exchequet.i SENTENCES. The Sessions having terminated, the COMMON SERJEANT (in the absence of the Recorder) pro ceeded to pass sentence of death upon the following persons who were capitally convicted; previous to which he addressed them in the following terms:-- Prisoners at the bar, you have each of you been convicted of offences by which your lives become forfeited to the laws of your country, and it is now' my duty to pass upon you the awful sentence of death, a sentence which is always pronounced from the Bench with the utmost pain. Some among you may perhaps litter themselves, that although sen tence is passed upon them, their lives may be spared. I beseech you all to banish such hopes, and to con sider your lives as forfeited; an act of mercy can alone save any one of you; whether that mercy will be extended to any of you, or if to any, to whom I cannot tell ; whether your lives are spared or not, you will be the better for a proper consideration of your situation with that feeling of sincere repent ance which becomes each of you. There are va rious degrees of crime in your several offences, but justice may perhaps require that an example should be made of some of those who most flatter them selves with the hope of escaping the extreme penalty of the law. Even if your lives are spared, your punishment will be severe; you will at all events be removed for life from the land of your birth, and from all your connections in society. How dismal would such a prospect have appeared to any one of you but a few weeks ago. I beseech you, and all who are likely to follow your example, to consider of this. I again entreat you to endeavour to make your peace with Heaven, and to make every atone ment to those who have been injured byeour con duct.—He then passed sentence of death in the usual form upon— Thomas Holbeck, aged 21, for sheep-stealing ; Wm.
