The publication of 'NE Sun NEWSPAPER commenced this day at 23 minutes past 3 o'clock. • . , - - uff ,S • - ~b im+ LONDON, FRIDAY EVENING, MAY is, 1335. The Hon. GEORCE BYNG, the candidate for Poole, is appointed Comptroller of the Househqld. The Marquis WELLESLEY has resigned the office of Lord Chamberlain. The cordial reception given to Lord, JOHN Rus- SELL, by the electors of Stroud, is no less gratifying, to the friends of Reform, than it is galling to the ad vocates of civil and ecclesiastical abuses. These con sistent upholders of " iniquity in high places " would fain play the same game among the liberal and en lightened inhabitants of Stroud, which they found so successful among the ignorant clod-hoppers of Devonshire. The priest-ridden believers in witch craft—those glorious seals of a gospel Ministry— those living proofs of the usefulness of an established Ministry—supplied them with proper tools for their un hallowed work. The "No Popery" cry was raised and re-echoed from the one end of the county to the other, and so unscrupulous were the " spiritual pastors and masters" of the flocks of South Devon, in the use of means towards the end they had in view, that some of them actually announced from the pulpit, that that pulpit would probably be filled next Sun day by a Popish priest I Such a fact as this—the very utterance of such an absurdity—laying aside all consideration of the want of principle in the man who uttered it—shews in what a benighted state the con gregation must be, on whose credulity its pastor could dare to make so bold an experiment. Such priestly pranks, however, will not succeed with the electors of Stroud. Should they be at tempted, they will be met by the only notice of which they are deserving—the smile of derision. The Tories, we are well aware, are above all things anxious to defeat Lord JOHN RUSSELL a second time ; but, alas, they have little hope, and no expectation, of accomplishing their favourite object. They have in the silence of the night placarded the walls with " No Popery," but no body heeds it. They have also circulated a report that a candidate is to be started in opposition to Lord JOHN in the person of a Mr. MILDMAY, a son-in-law, we believe, of the -person who was lately - shovelled in among the Peers, under the style and title of Lord ASHBURTON. They have also sounded the constituency, and find to their great mortification that they cannot muster, at the very utmost, 300 votes out of the 1,300. On discovering how little chance they had in case of a contest, they gave a soft of demi-official intimation to Lord JOHN RUSSELL'S Committee, that the Noble Lord would not be opposed, with the insidious purpose of throwing the liberal party off their guard; for at the very time they made this communication, they sent off two per sons, the most active of their body, to London, to see what the Carlton Club would do for them. The aid they want is money, and the use they mean to make of it may easily be imagined. There is, however, no fear for the result. Should the Club empty its coffers, LORD JOHN is safe. It is possible that some of the electors may be deterred from voting ; but at the very lowest computation, the Noble LORD will have a ma jority of more than 500 votes. The charges brought forward last night in the House of Commons by Lord MANDEVILLE against the Earl of GOSFORD are a very fair sample of Orange calumny—full of rancour ; put together with much adroitness and plausibility ; insisted on with a world of emphasis ; presenting an imposing array of sophistical arguments ; yet, when subjected to the searching test of common sense, found to be wholly destitute of foundation, and dissolving before the light of truth, like snow-wreaths in the morning sun. Con sidered per se, the Noble Viscount's charges scarcely merit even a passing notice ; but as illustrating the favourite mode of attack adopted by the Irish Con servatives towards their adversaries, they become of some little importance ; and from the masterly expo sure of them by Dr. LUSHINGTON, the public will deduce this inference, that no calumny is too ridicu lous to be propagated—no falsehood too monstrous to be uttered by an Orangeman—provided it tends, for the time, to injure the characters of thaw who may be opposed to him in politics. Not the faintest shadow of a foundation had Lord MANDEVILLE for his attack on the Earl of GOSFORD ; yet he adhered to it with a pertinacity which in a good cause would have been firmness, but in a had one, is sheer obstinacy. When, one by one, his charges were refuted—when, driven from post to post, be had none left to take refuge in—he did not even then surrender, but still maintained a sort of Parthian fight ; contending, in his reply, that " the investigation had not been fairly conducted," because, forsooth, it was only confined to the points at issue, instead of going back to periods and events with which it had no more connexion, than a squabble between Catholic and Protestant ; at the present day, would have with a similar squabble in the reign of King WILLIAM I If, however, our readers imagine that this was a mere absurd, random assertion, on the part of the Noble Viscount, they will be mistaken : it had a far deeper origin ; it was neither more nor less than a cunning, methodised attempt to revive the recol lection of half-forgotten party feuds. In this light Mr. SHAW viewed, and commented on, it. We are beaten, to be sure—so ran the Hon. and Learned Gentleman's line of argument—still we shall have ef fected some little good for our party, if we can only contrive to fan the flame of bigotry, by one or two dexterous allusions to " the previous occurrences at the Armagh races." Accordingly he tried this last chance—it being quite in his peculiar way—but with no other success than that of at once deciding the House to " negative the charges against the Earl of GosFoRD" as being wholly " without foundation." We should not omit to state that the Tory mag nates took no part in this debate. Sir ROBERT PEEL was silent ; GOULBURN breathed not so much as a whisper; even the fiery HA RDINGE kept the peace. What is to be deduced from this ? Why, that Doctor LUSIIINGTON and Mr. SPRING RICE had so triumphantly disposed of the question, as to leave even Conservative intolerance itself without a peg to hang a sophistry upon I The friends of civil and religious liberty, whether Churchmen or Dissenters, will rejoice to learn that a motion is to be made this night in the house of Com mons by Mr. Po T TER, forinformation respecting the bar barous persecution of Mr. CHILDS. To have allowed so scandalous an outrage upon the liberty of a British subject to pass without animadversion would have been disgraceful to a British Legislature, and we are happy that the task of holding up to the reprobation of the national Senate this—we trust, transient—rem nant of ecclesiastical tyranny, has devolved on one so able to do it well. A letter which we have received from Mr. CHILDS himself, written in the gaol of Ipswich, will be found in another column. Nothing that we could say would give additional effect to the simple pathos and truly Christian spirit which run throughout this letter. Mr. CHILDS hears his sufferings not only without repining, but with the inward satisfaction whish arises from a consciousness that he is suffering in the greatest of causes—the cause which forbids all human interposition between man and his MAKER. "I am removed," says he, with apparent cheerfulness, " forty miles from my family—have, for the first time in my life, slept on an iron bedstead—and am, I believe, the first of my family who has been the inmate of a prison." Gracious GOD I and this for a Church-rate of 17s. 6d. I Who would not rather be the prisoner on his iron bed, than the man, if man he can be called, who placed him there ? We have received the whole of the Paris Papers of Wednesday. The Court of Peers held two secret conferences respecting the letter in the defunct Tri bune, brought forward by the Duke of MONTEBELLO, as a breach of privelege, when it was finally agreed upon by their Lordships that the ninety-one persons whose names were affixed to the letter, together with the late editor of the Tribune, should be summoned to appear at the bar of the Chamber. We dare affirm that so striking an instance of judicial imbecility as this resolution of their Lordships, is not to be found in the annals of any state in Europe. What ! summon the very persons to appear at the bar whose name terrified the Govern ment into an act which threatens to lead to the judicial assassination of the prisoners ? What was it but the fear of encountering the withering looks of these honourable and talented men—the dread of awaken ing the thunders of their eloquence—that induced the KING to outrage the Constitution—to trample upon the established laws—to spurn the equitable rights of Frenchmen, by refusing to permit the prisoners to be defended by the advocates of their choice ? To the KING the question of defence, considered in the ab stract, was of no importance. It was the agents of the accused that he dreaded. He knew that the right of defence once generally admitted, would allow of no restrictions capable of screening his own acts, and those of his Government. He was aware that the conspi racies could be easily traced to the Tuilleries—that the leading anarchists would be found to possess a large share of the Royal confidence. There was but two ways of extricating himself from these diffi culties—either to gag the prisoners altogether, or to allow them to be defended only by such members of the legal profession as he knew to be disposed to bow to the behests of the Court. Such was the crooked policy of Louis PHILIPPE; and yet it was by far the safest that could be adopted under the circum stances by which he had voluntarily surrounded him self. But mark the discrepancy between the conduct of the KING and that of the imbecile instruments of his despotic will. He refused to allow the prisoners to be defended by the writers of the letter in the de funct Tribune, because he dreaded the exposures they might make, and the effect which their eloquence would have upon the country ; and here we have the mere tools of his ambition goaded on by a hair-brained young nobleman, who expects to be repaid for his ser vility to the Court by the Embassy to Naples, issuing their mandate for the appearance at their bar of the re volutionary advocates ! Now, if their possible de fence of others so terrified the KING and Cabinet, what may not the Government apprehend from their actual defence of themselves, as abettors of the crime of the accused ? From a passive opposition, the Cham ber of Peers will now force the chosen advocates of the accused into a strenuously active resistance of the un constitutional power attempted to be exercised by the New Court of the Luxemburg. The Peers have vir tually extended the accusation ; for it was suggested by one of their body, that the surest way to vindicate their honour would be to try the writers of the letter in the Tribune, as accessories to the crime of high treason. But the consequences of the appearance of the chosen advocates at the Bar of the Chamber of Peers, is not the only mortification to which the Government is likely to be exposed. Three of the persons whose signatures are affixed to the letter are members of the Chamber of Deputies, and, consequently without the consent of that body, beyond the jurisdiction of the Chamber of Peers. Now, before a summons is addressed to these gentlemen, it will be necessary to ask the Chamber's Consent to their prosecution--a boon which the De puties will not grant, without re-opening afresh the whole question of the policy of following up the pre. sent prosecutions. The Government knoWs its own position too well, to desire the adoption of such a course as this. It is doubtful, at the present moment, whether the Opposition might not obtain a majority, and were this to happen, a revolution would as assuredly follow as the morning succeeds the night. In the Chamber of Peers on Wednesday little was (lone besides the continuing to read the Act of Indict ment, which will occupy two or three more sittings. There were only twenty-three of the accused present. The accounts from Bayonne, received this morning, are rather favourable, although there is no ground for presuming that the war draws towards an imme diate close. The belligerents on both sides are, how. ever, apparently resolved to spare the effusion of as much blood as possible—consistent with what they regard as their duties to their respective Sovereigns. The following is from the Memorial des Pyrenees : " On the 2d, in the morning, Zumalacarregui attacked the fort of Irurzun with 4,000 men and six pieces of cannon ; but hearing that Valdez was advancing with 12,000 men, he set fire to the church, and retreated into the mountains, hoping, probably, to draw his adversary after him. It may be pre sumed that experience has rendered both parties more circum spect, and that the war will assume a more regular character, and be carried on in a manner more conformable to the law of nations."

Mr. TEMPLE applied in this case that an early day might be appointed for the hearing of the petition. The case was one of great importance, as his client (Mr. Chambers) had suffered an imprisonment of sixteen years. The Learned Gentleman trusted that their Lordships would appoint scme day in the holidays. Sir W. HORNE protested against any course being adopted that would interfere with the holidays. The VICE-CHANCELLOR observed, that if Mr. Temple's client wished the hearing of the petition to be postponed from to-day, it must come on in the regular course. After some further discussion, it was arranged that the case should come on for hearing on an early day in the Term. VIE SUN, LONDON, FRIDAY, MAY 15, 1835. ROLLS' COURT.-(THIS DAY.)

Money concerns at present in the City attract the attention of the public, owing to the Bank contracting their circulation and discounts ; as also the disposing of Exchequer Bills, when a favourable opportunity offers at certain periods. But the want of money is not so great on British Securities as on the Foreign, as the Bankers and Capitalists will not advance on the latter, owing to the immense speculations which of late have been carried on in Spanish and South American Stocks by a certain class of persons who cannot pay the differences, should a considerable fall take place in them. This is settling day in the Foreign Market, and fluctuations to a considerable ex tenChave taken place in most of them. In Spanish Bonds the extreme fluctuation, is about 6 per cent.; in Spanish Scrip. 4 per cent.; in Portuguese'll to 2 per cent. ; New Portuguese about 21- per cent. ; Colombian 7 per cent.—consequently it will be a very heavy account to adjust. The following are the opening prices of this morning : Spanish Bonds, 661 ; Spanish Scrip. 6} prem. ; Portu guese, 1001 ; Mexican, 46k; Colombian, 461 4 ; Bra zilian, 86:V. Consols, which left off yesterday at 92 to -4-, opened at the same price this morning, with little doing, as the chief attraction is in the Foreign Market.

W. A. Hankcy, Esq., having taken the chair, addressed the meeting at great length, urging every individual, for the sake of Him, " who, though he was rich , for our sakes became poor, that we, through his poverty, might become rich," to evidence their love to him, by assisting the London Mis sionary labours, that those to whom were committed the affairs of the institution might go forth to their labour with increased exertion during the ensuing year. After a long Report had been read by the Secretary, which was very cordially re ceived, varioVs excellent speeches were made by several mini sters, and other gentlemen connected with the auxiliaries and associations of the London Missionary Society, many of whom scem od frequently to touch a string congenial to the feelings of the ti .udience, The proceeding* of the day occupied nearly five hourgr ECCLESIASTICAL OPPRESSION. IPSWICH COUNTY GAOL, May 14tii, 183 5 . TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. SIR-I find my eldest son has addressed a letter to the Churchwardens at whose suit I am imprisoned, for the non-payment of Church Rates ; and that, with unremitting devotion to the public service, you have inserted his letter in your columns, and done justice to a son who never gave his father a pang of sorrow. „ I am removed forty miles froin my family—have, for the first time in my life, slept on an iron bedstead—and am, I believe, the first of my family who has been the inmate of a prison. I will trespass very briefly on your space at a time when your columns arc so fully occupied by the pressure of Parlia mentary intelligence, merely to state one or two considera tions, which I deem of public interest. Having during my whole life dissented from the Esta blished Church, my objection to contribute to its services by the payment of Church Rates has been always equal 4 powerful as at present. In common with my dissent' brethren, I have hitherto endured this among other indika nities visited on the expression of our conscientious opi nion. That we have done so, is no reason why we should not henceforth adopt the most effectual method of relieving ourselves, when the progress of society and the temper of the times afford a reasonable hope of success. In the firm conviction, that persons of one denomination have no right to interfere with the religious concerns of any other, I have uniformly and scrupulously refrained from attendance at Vestry Meetings, at which Church Rates were in question—the obloquy of anti-Christian exaction, in having collected a portion from me, I leave with those who hAve practised it. When the Churchwardens of Bungay had resolved on adopting their present mode of proceeding, several other gentlemen of the Independent congregation were served with notices similar to my own. They deemed it prudent not to incur the expenses which miglat arise, and under various modes of protest paid the sums assessed upon them. But it would be equally unjust and unfounded, to suppose that any one among them would not have gladly endured all that is inflicted on me. I feel that in principle they are with me ; and I have much satisfaction in the certainty which is hourly presented, that, the first step being now taken, hundreds of good men in this county are prepared to protest and to suffer in the cause of religious liberty. I am Sir, your obedient serVant, JOHN CHILDS. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. Six,—Allow me, as a Dissenter, to thank you for the power ful manner in which you have noticed the imprisonment of Mr. John Childs, for non-appearance in the Ecclesiastical Court at Norwich to resist the payment of Church Rates. No sooner is this flairrart enmmittod. though 100 miles from the metropolis, than it is exposed aidi. 7,1 yo , :r ever active and rapidly distributed columns. Indeed, much as wo owe to the press, you have, by the energy which secures to the distant counties the immediate knowledge of the many matters involving their dearest rights and interests, given an astonish ingly increased addition to its power and usefulness. - The understandings of the Bishops and Ministers of the Established Church are evidently darkened, or they never could expect, in this day of religious knowledge, to succeed in forcing men to worship at their shrine. Now, what are the facts of this case, as they appear in the excellent letter of Mr. Childs, junior, to the worthy persecutors ? The father of a large family, at the head of a large print ing establishment, employing numbers of workmen who spend thousands of pounds annually in the town in which he re sides, who has lived thirty years in the same town, publicly known to his friends and neighbours as the head of a Dissenting family, is taken into custody in his own house, carried forty miles from thence to the county jail, and is there incarcerated for the constructive contempt of not appearing to resist the payment of 17s. 6d., a Church-rate assessed upon him to support a Worship in which he cannot join, and which is applied, amongst other things, to the payment of choristers to sing music for an other sect, and to wash the surplices of their minister—whilst bail, though tendered to any amount, is refused. Verily men who can thus act, must be labouring under that infatuation which is preparatory to their downfall. But this is not all, as it regards the persecutors. The Legislature, to Check the oppression of the Eccle siastical Courts, provided by the 57th George 111., c. 127, that for sums under 10/. the justices might enforce the payment by a summary and cheap process, and at a few shillings' expense the Churchwardens could have levied the amount and the expenses, upon his property. He is, and during the maturer period of his life has been, an ac tive and zealous distributor of the Scriptures, and of such religious works as " Henry's Commentary on the Bible," " Doddridge's New Testament," and various other standard works ; in the production of cheap editions of which works, he has invested a large property, and ho has been further ac -1 tive, as most conscientious Dissenters are, in establishing schools in his locality, and communicating knowledge to the rising generation. To this be has added that which all who read the New Testament for themselves usually do add—the love and the desire to promote the civil, social, and political rights of his fellow men. When Sectarian tyranny, under the name of an Established Church, has sought to oppress those who differed from them— when corruption has pleaded the right divine to do wrong within the circle of his influence—he has stood up to repel or assist in repelling the oppression, or exposing the corruption. The image makers have shouted in his ears, " Great is Diana of the Ephesians," but they have not been able to make him fall down and worship their idol. Hence he has been pursued not for the 17s. 6d., but that, if it were possible, the dominant sect might crush in Suffolk and Norfolk the spreading resistance to their spiritual and legal, but unscriptural exactions. The Dissenters must expect nothing from the Establish ment. A slave might as well expect concession from a planter ; the possession of the power to oppress blinds the eyes of the oppressor to the justice of the principle ; and it would be folly to expect that he who has the power will yield it, whilst those who suffer from it submit unresistingly to it. The Ecclesiastical Court embodies and shews forth the spirit which animates the Established Clergy, and such is the spirit of that Court, that it punishes a man for not resisting, just the same as those who do resist. Mr. Childs is actually now in prison, not for the 17s. 6d. assessed upon him—though that gives rise to the suit—but for not appearing and resisting the payment. Such is the practice of the Court called the Court CHRISTIAN. Such proceedings lead one to thank God that the fires of Smithfield cannot be lighted in our day. We cannot doubt that those who have recourse to such proceedings would im molate the Dissenters now, as the Established Clergy of former times destroyed their non-conforming ancestors, but that we now enjoy the benefit of the noble struggles of those ancestors in their day ; and let us bear in mind that our duty as religious men is to follow in their steps, to advocate the same principles, to maintain and increase the influence of those principles, and so to labour that we may each feel, when sum moned to his account, that he is leaving the world better than he found it, and something the better for his having lived himself. To you who were, as usual, the first to notice, in terms o just condemnation, this instance of violence and injustice, again tender the grateful thanks of' A DISSENTER. PARLIAMENTARY SUMMARY. In the LORDS last night several petitions were pre sented. Lord BROUGHAM presented one signed by nearly 12,000 persons, against any grant for procuring additional Church accommodation in Scotland. It was stated that there was more than enough of accommodation, and that in Edinburgh alone there were 5,000 unoccupied sittings. The Noble and Learned Lord postponed till to-day the presentation of the petition from the City of London for the repeal of the Newspaper Stamp duty. In the HOUSE of COMMONS Committees were formed, by Ballot, to try the merits of the Canterbury and Carlow election petitions. Petitions in support of a grant-to the Scotch Church were presented. Mr. M. O'CONNELL postponed his motion relative to General DARLING'S con duct. Mr. DIVETT also postponed his resolution for the extinction of Church Rates in England and Wales. Mr. HUME intimated his intention of asking this evening what course the Government meant to adopt on this question. Lord MANDEVILLE moved for a return of Reports relating to the outrages committed last year at Armagh Races. The allegations made by the Hon. Mem ber were met by Dr. LUSHINGTON, who triumphantly re futed the charges brought against Lord GOSFORD'S impar tiality. • It will be recollected that the Noble Lord insti tuted an enquiry into the Orange outrages at Armagh. Of the 37 Magistrates who were summoned by the Lord Lieutenant of Armagh to attend that enqui r y, 24 o f th em w ere of politics adverse to his Lordship's. Of the first day, of twenty m agistrates who attended, sixteen were O rangemen ; and on the last , the difference was as ten to one. The whole of the Magistrates were satisfied with the manner in w hi c h the evidence was taken. Lord MANDEVILLE was P' resent and did not make any prot es t or even o bj ec ti on a t the time. Mr. S. RICE suggested the withdrawal of the m otion, and Mr. HUME moved an amendment to the effect, that . there was no found a ti o n f or th e c h arges made against Lord GOSF O RD. After a l eng th ene d and interesting discussion, Lord MANDEVILLE'S mo tion was negatived, and Mr. Humes motion put and carried. Mr. HUME then moved for a return of the num- Ex-Lord Chancellors in the receipt of p ens i ons , an d ber of the amount of those pensions. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER did not object to the r e t urn . M r . H ARVEY alluded to the putting the Great Seal in Commission. The S OL ICITOR-G i ENERAL said that no i nconven i ence h a d re sulted from t, and that the arrangement would soon cease. M r . PEASE noticed the long list of Iknsioned law functiona ries. The motion was agreed to. Mr. HUME gave notice that he should this evening move for a return of the amount o f F ee s payable by the Lord Chancellor or the Commis sioners on taking the custody of the Great Seal, and on assuming the office of Speaker of the House of Lords, with an account of the patronage, lay and ecclesiastical, exercised by those functionaries. The Orders of the Day were then disposed of, and the Rouse adjourned, CENTRAL CRIMINAL COURT. (THIS DAY.) OLD COURT. Patrick Carroll, it Corporal of Marines, aged 32, was in dicted for the murder of Elizabeth Browning with a bayonet, in the parish of Woolwich, on the 27th of April last, He was also charged oh the Coroner's inquisition with wilful murder. The prisoner appeared in a suit of black, and was much affected while the indictment was read : he leant over the dock, and never once raised his head. Mr. BCDKIN stated the facts of the case to the Jury. Elizabeth Blake examined by Mr. CRESSWELL.—Was a lodger in the iiritannia public-house, kept by the deceased. She knew the prisoner at the bar, and saw him on the 27th of April in the house, at ten o'clock in the morning. There was an inner as well as an outer bar. The prisoner was standing at the latter, asking for a pot of beer, which the deceased refused to give him. The prisoner then wished to speak to her, and she said she would not speak to such a brute as he was, or had been on tno former evening. The prisoner then pushed her into the inner bar; be followed her and shut the door. The pri soner was then sober. Witness was standing near the bar, Land heard the deceased say " Do net begin to ill-use me." The mother of the deceased was along with them. About ten minutes after, witness was sitting by the fire, when she heard a violent scream, which induced her to run into the the inner room, when she saw deceased's face streaming with blood, and the prisoner stabbing her with a bayonet. The bayonet was in the sheath on his side when they went into the room. When the witness went in she found de ceased's mother attempting to save her daughter, by which she received a wound in the hand. Witness went out, and on her return in ten minutes found Mrs. Browning dead. After that witness heard the prisoner say, " I have stabbed her, and I intended to do it." Cross-examined by Mr. PAYNE—Had not seen the prisoner before 10 o'clock. Did not hear deceased say that she would report him at the barracks. The prisoner did not drink any thing in the Brittania after 11 o'clock on the Sunday evening. Never heard the prisoner say that he would sooner destroy himself than be reported at the barracks, nor did she ever hear Mrs. Browning say that he would not be the first man who had destroyed himself for her sake. 'When witness saw the prisoner at three o'clock on Sunday he was very violent, and was taken out of the house. Re-examined—When she saw him at ten o'clock he was much cooler. By the COURT.—When the prisoner was not on duty he was generally in the House. On the Sunday, a gentleman called, who took tea with Mrs. Browning. The prisoner was not in vited, and he said he would serve her out. The prisoner and deceased quarrelled very much, and frequently he said he would do for her. At three o'clock on the Sunday a watch man came to remove the prisoner, but as he was then quiet, deceased begged of the watchman not to take him. After further evidence had been adduced, the Jury consulted for five minutes, when they returned a verdict of Guilty. The RECORDER then sentenced the prisoner to be hanged at Maidstone on Monday next. NEW COURT. Mary Denny, alias Madden, aged seventeen, was indicted for stealing frum furnished lodgings a quantity of furniture, value 201., the property of Ann Hcyworth. The prisoner was afterwards met in the street by the prosecutris, and given into custody. The Jury found the prisoner guilty. John Williams, aged thirty-three, was indicted for stealing a dead sheep, the proporty of John Sherwood. The prisoner took the sheep from a cart in Newgate-street, and walked off with it on his back. He was observed, followed, and taken into custody. Verdict—Guilty. The COMMON SERGEANT remarked that this sort of robberies had been frequent of late, and it would be necessary to make an example of the prisoner. PARLIAMENTARY PROCEEDINGS. HOUSE OF COMMONS.
