The last Number of Tide Quarterly Review conn tains a very interesting article, from which we have taken the following Extract. It is am ibut.

Thomas Brown, a wretched-looking, buy, was ind.cted for putting in bodily fear, and violently robbing, a person named Walters. The Prosecutor, on returning from that unlucky valley, had his hat knocked off; he pursued the fellow who did it, and knocked- him down.---- stab him," cried another of the, gang, and strait way Mr. Walters was surrounded by about two dozen ruffians, knocked down, robbed of his money and pocket handkerchief, and left sense less. The next morning the prisoner was seen to pry about the spot, and being asked hy the offi cer what he was doing, answered that Ire was looking for a murdered man. The prosecutor's handkerchief was tound upon him. Justice BEST observed, that there was' proof that a robbery had been c4immitted, and that the prisoner had been connected with 'it. But it was not quite plain that the -prisoner had perpetrated any part of the.violeirce, the evidence which it was necessary to •establish clearly before the pri soner could be ; convicted of highway robbery. -stealing from the person, but not .violently. • •, • ..Henry Lovell, _aged 16, was indicted for vio lently assaulting, on the 27th of July, Michael Heddington, and taking from his person a snuff box, a hat, a handkerchief, and gixtecti in money, at \Vest-End Fair. This robbery was committed by a part of the general gang, amounting to about twenty or thirty., The prosecutor saw them coming to wards him, and getting through a hedge. On approaching him the prisoner came up boldly and knocked off his bat, for which he returned a blew which felled the prisoner. A cry was immediately made of " Stall him, stall hint," by the prisoner. which was re.eehord by the gang, which now amounted to at least fifty. The prosecutor was so dreadfully beaten that he fainted away, and re-. untitled senseless for a day and a night. The prisoner was described by the prosecutor to the . Officers, who, assisted by a body of special con stables, took him and about a dozen others from a booth. The prosecutor recognized the prisoner immediately. from among the others, when they were taken to Bow-street. The prisoner put in a written defence, in which he denied the charge, and described himself as getting his living by going about with a drum and Pan's pipes. He also said that' he had-lost his montl;•organ and drutu in the confusion.—Guilty, Death. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. EXTRAORDINARY CASE OF CHILD-STRIPPING AND STEALING. MARLBOROUGH-STREET. Yesterday Mary 111'Natly, an urchin, eight years .old, but whose depravity shocked all present, was charged with enticing a boy, named Fodder, three years and a half old, from his playmates, and stripping bin) of part of his clothes. A youth n►►med Smith, son of the King's Mes senger of that name, in baton-street, lihnlico, stated, that between six and seven o'clock on Thursday evening, he saw the prisoner in the act oistripning the child, she havin . g.got off the frock and wepara:ed the skirt from the body. He ques tioned her as to what she was doing with the child, when she swore at him and said it was her roiher. Witness followed her from Palace-street to the corner of Stafford -street, when some females interfered, and at their request Winstanley, a sol dier, followed her. The soldier stared, that the prisoner persisted that the child was her brother, nod that she was going to take him home. The child at first made no answer, but subsequently said that she was not his sister, arid the prisoner's reply was, that her brother never spoke without telling lies. The prisoner led witness a dance by Constitution-hill, Park•lone,and Bond-street. She said she ex pected to meet her father, .and if so, the soldier would get his head broke. She gave different unwell and addresses, and to detect Ler Winstau- Jane Greenslade sworn—Two years ago, the 6th of June, the prisoner, John C. Elisha, came to my mistress's house, Mrs. Currie, Upper-terrace, Islington, and drank tea with her; after tea he still staid, and did not seem willing to go. About eight o'clock I took no my mistress's Supper into the parlour, and when I returned into the kitchen, prisoner was sitting by the side of the tire, with his face in front of it. I heard hint rattle the poker against the bars .ofthe grate ; 'stood by the side of, the sink, and pri soner comb ed his hair over his eyes, and I remember it was quite black ; he then caught the poker out of the tire, and gave tne five or six bloWs oti the skull ; prisoner then forced his fingerS. itito try mouth, which was so - seriously it joyed by_ his violence that I c ould scamely speak. There _was also a violent hruize tinder my chin, whiCh did not disappear fora month alter; Ptisoner also in flicted tw) serious -wootols•,. on my right arm with the said poker. lie gave me a blow on the left arm and anothr on the lett finger, so that I could not move my hands nor feed. toy- self for a long time., At lasi prisoner left me nearly dead. lie (hen ran, out of the kitchen up stairs, with the poker in his hand, and th e r e l e f t i t , and went o ut by the back door. My cries at this, timealaroted the neighbourhood ; . my mistress was in the pat lour, and also heard them. liTlien I looked out I saw that the prisoner bad opened the yard done, and let himself out : he then Wulf mond to the front door, and made a violent knocking. Th e neigh bours saw the prisoner knocking at the door, when he told them that somebody had been at No. 11, and murdered the servant ; lie said if they would go for a surgeon, he Would go for an officer, and be then made his escape, Mr. Semple, the surgeon, came and dressed my wounds. My skull was so mod) injured, that he feared I could not li ve th e night out. I - wa s examined by the Magistrate about-a ononth after, and the poker with which the prisoner beat tne was taken and lett there. Mr. Robert Semple, of No. 85, Upper -street, Islington, surgeon, sworn.—Ou the Gth June, 1817, I was sent for to the house of Mrs. Currie, where I found Jane Greenslade, the servant, now present, in the parlour, with several wounds on her bead and various parts of her body. On ex amination I found she had received four deep. wrinnds on the right parietal bone, and one on the right side of the os fronds, near the coro na( artery ; they were apparently inflicted by a poker or some such instrument ; several wounds and many black marks were also dis cernible on other parts of her body ; the face was scratched, arid the marks of nails were evi dent on the inside of the lips, probably with in tent•to„strangle her; she vomited much during the night, and at times lost her recollection ; but on the following morning her faculties were re stored, and she continued in perfect possession of thenwill I left• off attending on her. It was about two months before Jane Greenslade re covered of her wounds, which appeared to have been inflicted by some persdns with intent to murder. The prisoner will be tried at the present Ses sions. FlRE.—Last night, between I l and 12 o'clock, an alas-Ming fire broke out at a Gentleman's house, in Golden-square, which consumed the interior, hot by the speedy arrival of engines, the flames were extinguished without further damage. Thursday night, after the Second act of Up 411 Night, Mr. HUNT appeared in one of the dress boxes, accompanied by two Ladies, at the Eng lish Opera House. He was immediately tecog.. nixed, and most loudly cheered from all parts of the house, which he returned by rising and how ing respectfully to the audience. Mr. CHARLES HARMER, a cattle salesman from Wales,. had his .pocket picked at Harlow Bush Fair, in Essex, of his pocket-book, containing cheques and Bank-notes to the amount of tween three and four hundred potrta, w4h which the thief escaped. ed to Mr. SOUTHEY " The National Cnneentio'n, in the year 1793, passed a deci - ee, on the motion of Barrere, that the graves and monuments of the Kings in St. Denis, in all other places thronai;out France, ' should be destroyed. Nor were they contented with this : but the graves c,t all the celebrated persons, who had been interred ar Sr. Denis were opt net) also, that the !e,den coffins might be ap plied to he use of the Republic " The details of this barbarous exhumation are curious, and serve to heighten, if that be possible, our abitorreo‘e of tin act so abominable in every respect. The first vault which they opened was that of Toreone. The-body was to',iul dry like a mummy, and of a light bistre colour, the feat tures perfectly resembling t‘e portrait of ilos dis tinguished Cserietel. As *furenne did nor happen to be an object of popular oh!oq.ty, some enthu siasm was hit or effected at the siaht of his re- Mains, relics were sought after with erect aagt r nest, and Deancitilins cut off one of his little' fingers ; the body was turned over to ~ he person who held the sexton's place, and tic kept it in a chest for some months to make a sh,:w Mf it, till,•at the - intercession of 'M.

The body of Lords XV. was fresh, but red, lying bathed in is liquor formed by the dissolution of the salt with which i; had been covered. In the coffin of Jeanno de Bourbon, wife of Charles V. a gilt distaff was found with the remains of a crown, bracelets and embroidered shoes. The hotly or Louis VIII. was the only iine which had bean sewed op in leather : the leather was strong and thick, and re rallied all its elasticity; the body was almost con sumed, as was the winding-sheet, but fragments of its gold embroidery were still existing. Dagoa bert and his Qieen Natithildes were in one coffin, with a partitton betWeen' them. The workmen were long before they could diScover the vault of Francis 1. and his family. It contained six leaden . coffins deposited upon bait of iron ;" in all these the remains were in a State of liquid putrefaction, which made its way through the lead as they were removed, and the odOur was almost instill. portable. 'The bodies of many of the later Bour• bons were also in a state of decomposition, and when the coffins were opened, they are said to have emitted 'a thick black vapour, which, though vinegar and gunpowder were burnt'to prevent ill consequences, affected the wretches, empicyed in this inhuman work, with fevers and diartheessas-- Two large pits . had beendug in front of the north entrance of the Church, and quick lime laid in them ; into these pits the bodies were cast pro 7 miStuously, anti the entrails which had been depo• sited separately in leaden vessels; this lead and the leaden coffins were then carried to a' furnace which had been erected in tire Cemeptery, and cast into halls ` destined to punish the enemies of the Republic,' and it was more than once proposed in the National Convention Ora: the Church itself should be totally destroyed I" DEATH TUROUGH Passtots.—Yesterday rift r noon an Inquisition WAS taken before Coroner, at the While noise Tavel n, 0. chard street, Westminster, upon the body of John Batchelor, about sixty years of age.—Phebe Briant, a young woman, servant t a the de., ceased, stated, that. about seven o'clock on Wednesday evening, she was in the.bed-room with her mistress, pitting her to bed. The rleceateci was in the sitting-room, and had got up to go kilo the bed-room; but when he cache near the door he fell, aiid continued senseless till a sur geon came, who attempted to bleed him, but no blood would flow, and he expired shortly after wards : be had been quarrelling witli his wife doting the whole day, and when hg attempted to come into the room, he had his arm up,, and his fist clenched, in a threatening manner; he was a very passionate man. The Jury were satisfied, that whatever was the cause of his death, anger facilitated it, and probably produced apoplexy but as no medical Man was in attendance to clear op that point, they returned a verdict of " Natu. rat Death."
