ASTHMA, INFLUENZA, and INCI PIENT CONSUMPTION. Price la. lid. and 2s. 9d. p er Bottle. From time immemorial Linseed has been proverbial for its virtues in the cure of Coughs and Colds ; but previous to the discovery of the present Chemical Essence, it was merely used in the form of tea, and its benefit comparatively limited. This Essence contains all the medicinal properties of Linseed in a highly concentrated form, combined with other medicinals and herbs, producing the most certain and efficacious remedy for Coughs which has yet been discovered. Children's Coughs, as recent ones in Adults, will be re moved by a few doses of Simco's Essence of Linseed (frequently by the first) ; old standing Chronic Coughs may require per severance, but they ultimately yield to its curative powers. Asthmatic persons, who previously had not been able to lie down in bed, haze received the utmost benefit, and others suf fering from Influenza have been speedily cured by this valuable medicine. LA W INTELLIGENCE. COURT OF BANKRUPTCY, Oct. 24. IN RE GEORGE CHAPMAN. The bankrupt in this case was the proprietor of the well-known dairy at Islington called " Rhodes' Dairy." He had also been the holder of several large farms in the neighbourhood of London. The amount of his debts and liabilities were stated at 20,0001., and the available assets to be about 5,000/. He had on the last day appointed for his hearing written a letter to Mr. Rhodes, the trade assignee, stating that he was about starting for America, and if Providence favoured his undertakings, he would meet all his liabilities to the last farthing. At the last hearing the case stood adjourned to this day, when the meeting was held, pro forma, the pro clamation of outlawry having been announced on the 7th ult. (Before Commissioner Sir C. F. WILLIAMS.) IN RE HODGSON, BROTHERS, AND DOVER. This day was fixed for the final examination of Mr. John Dover, of this firm, who carried on the business of wholesale chemists and druggists, at the Three Cranes wharf, Upper Thames-street. There have been several examinations in relation to this extraordinary bankruptcy, and in the course of which it appeared that the house, being in difficulties between three and four years since, Mr. Dover went off to the Continent, where he continued to live until he was brought to England by the issue of the fiat about the month of February last. Upon leaving home he gave a power to one of his clerks to sign bills and cheques in the name of the firm, and bills in abundance were the result, Mr. Dover never requiring any, even an annual account of the state of his affairs. Debts have been already proved to the amount of about 30,0001. The following is the abstract of the balance-sheet of John Dover, in partnership with T. H o d gson t ill hi s death, and subsequently as survivor, from the Bth Feb., 1836, to the 14th Feb., 1842 : Dr. £. s. d. Trade creditors on his estate Ditto, ditto, T. Hodgson and J. D over 259 3 1 Family Creditors 7,662 3 7 Ditto, ditto, T. Hodgson and J.

He (Mr. Haldon) had insured the lives of the emigrants, too, for the benefit of their relations. The LORD MAYOR here asked the Secretary of the Association some questions relative to the Noblemen and Gentlemen of the Association. He had, he said, observed the name of his Grace the Duke of Argyle under the head of President, and he wished to know whether that name appeared by the Dukes authority? The Secretary—Most undoubtedly it does. His Grace takes the greatest interest in the subject, and is most active'for the benefit of the Association. The Secretary admitted that he never saw more than three of the Commissioners at the offices, but that number was sufficient for all the transactions of the Association, who were bound by the acts of the Commissioners. A young man here complained that he had sold certain goods for the use of the vessel, but had re ceived not money but bills in payment. Captain Campbell declared that 3,000/. worth of goods were on board, and the vessel was at Graves end, and the delay had been only caused by the delay of certain machinery. We omit several comments made by the persons who appeared to make complaints. The case was postponed by the Lord Mayor. Yesterday, after the observations made by Mr. Bourdillon upon the stability, and respectability, and signal importance of the Association, that gentleman stated that he rejoiced in having the opportunity- of manifesting, beyond the possibility of a doubt, that the Duke of Argyle sanctioned, and most warmly approved of and recommended its objects. He then produced a book of the proceedings of the Associa tion, and pointed out.l4e...name of the Duke of Argyle, written by his Grace, as Chairman. The Loan .MAron—Does the Duke hold any in terest in shares in this Association? Mr. Bourdillon—Yes, certainly he does. I have here an account in a newspaper of the 23d of July, detailing what took place at a dinner given by the Association to Sir Allan M' Tab, and at which a Noble Duke presided. That is another evidence of the stability of the Association. The LORD MAYOR did not consider that satisfactory evidence. He wished to know whether any other persons attended to make complaints ? Mr. Bourdillon said there was not one. The vessel was, he declared, one of the most perfect in the opinion of the Government, and supplied with every thing for the support and comfort of the emigrants, and he challenged the most rigid inquiry with regard to her in every respect. The LORD MAYOR—It was complained on Saturday that people were not paid for supplying the vessel. Here a man, named Eden, who complained on Saturday, stated that he had nothing now to say. The Loan MAYOR—The emigrants who complained on Saturday, said that they left good employment to go with you to Prince Edward's Island, and that the contracts with them had been broken. Mr. Bourdillon said the Association had nothing to do with the emigrants going out. Mr. Haldon managed with them. The LORD Maxon. here observed that there ap peared to be a vast deal of confusion and mystification about the whole affair, and he did not wonder that poor men should feel suspicion about it. J. L. Blackmore, an iron -moulder, stated that he engaged with Mr. Haldon to go to Prince Edward's Island. Mr. Haldon gave a very good account of the place, and said that witness might make his fortune there. The LORD MAYOR—Did he say what sort of a place it was in winter? Blackmore—He said it was cold in winter.—(A laugh.) Witness was to have 3/. a week for three years with the Association, and to have then the liberty to reside in the island, in which he was to have five acres of land, freehold, at a pound an acre. Mr. Haldon said the land was like that of Gloucestershire or Worcestershire, and would grow anything that was sown in it. Witness had given up a situation of 2/. a week to accept the offer three weeks last Saturday, and never had got a shilling from Mr. Haldon. went up to Gibbs, and said, " If you had broke into my house in the same wa y I would hare served you worse." Cr. £ s. d. Good debts Stock Bills handed to official assignee .. 201 17 3 Fixtures £51,35.5 0 7 The RECORDER—YOU had better not do that, be cause you will run the risk of being transported i you do. £9,973 18 0 9,446 11 2 9,242 1 3 1,619 3 1 The witness was subjected to a long cross-examina tion, during the course of which he said that he heard no noise when the door was forced open, neither did he see any marks. Mary Smith had been at Hussey's on the day in question. Had let Hussey and his wife into the house shortly before the arrival of Gibbs, and had bolted the door after she had l e t th em i n . No person had come in or gone out until Gibbs made his appear ance. Hussey asked him to show his warrant He said No. They had high words, and Gibbs seized Hussey by the collar before Hussey struck him. There was no striking, only a scuffle, and, after there was a great noise, another man came up to help Gibbs. They all then fell down stairs together, and Gibbs fell upon some coals. Witness swore positively that Hussey never struck Gibbs at all, either with the poker or anything else. On her cross-examination, the witness said, that no blow was struck by Hussey at_ the officer in the eye, neither did Hussey tell any one to shut the door, or call for a knife or a hammer. The children screamed " Murder," but she did not hear Gibbs cry " Murder." By the REcounmt—Witness did not see Mrs, Hussey touch either of the men. Several Sheriffs' officers, who had on various coca sions arrested the prisoner, deposed to his having al ways behaved quietly on such occasions. Various witnesses were called to the prisoner's .cha racter. Mr. CLARKSON replied. The RECORDER summed up, and the Jury found the prispner guilty of an aggravated assault, and the Judge sentenced him to twelve months' imprisonment with hard labour. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. (YESTERDAY.) MANSION-HOUSE. THE BRITISH AMERICAN ASSOCIATION FOR EMI GRATION AND COLONIZATION.—Mr. Bourdillon yes 7 terday attended the Justice-room as solicitor to the British American Association for Emigration and Colonisation, to which his Lordship's attention had been called on Saturday. His Lordship had after the ex-parte statement had been made on that day ex pressed a wish that no account should go forth to the world until the Association should be afforded an adequate opportunity of showing that the complaints made against the Association were groundless, and an assurance was given that the wish should be complied with. To the surprise however of the Committee, a statement appeared in a newspaper, and of the most garbled and unfair description to the p re j u di ce o f a Company, formed for the accomplishment of a vast public object, and calculated to render the most im portant advantages to the community. The LORD MAYOR said he had not seen the ac count alluded to, but he was convinced it was not written by the reporter, who regularly attended the Justice-room, and who was aware of the impropriety of publishing complaints against public bodies until due time should be given for refutation. The in justice of such premature disclosures was likely to be injurious to the newspapers themselves as well as to those against whom they now aimed. He was ready to attend to the subject. Mr. Bourdillon said, that a sweeping condemnation from the Chief Magistrate was calculated to do serious mischief, and he should state that the conduct of the Association was strictly honourable and correct. For the purpose of making the case intelligible it is necessary to give an outline of what occurred on Saturday, and to represent some other particulars connected with the affair :-- Bad and doubtful debts Liabilities, per contra Ditto on customers' bills, ditto Net loss on trade from January 3, 1836, to January, 1840...... 5,898 3 5 Ditto from Jan., 1840, to Feb., 1842 5,621 .3 10 Losses on sundry speculations. 4,825 2 9 Amount draivn out by T.

It further stated that the consulting Counsel was the premier Baronet of Scotland and Nova Scotia; that there was one feature in the con stitution of the Association as connected with Scot land and with the interests of the Scottish emigrants, too important to be passed over—the support given to the undertaking by a union with the Baronets of Scotland and Nova Scotia, an order originally cre ated to further the settlement of British North Ame rica, by which its objects are closely interwoven with the interests of the Scottish nobility, and by the members of that order conducting its management a careful supervision was provided over all the interests not only of the shareholders, but more especially of the emigrants confided to its care, a supervision not ceasing with their landing in a new country, but continuing till they should be located in their settle ments, and providing for their future happiness. The names of thirty-four Scotch baronets are given in the list of Vice-Presidents ; following those, the noblemen above-mentioned, and after them are the mimes of the Commissioners :—Sir William Ogilvie, Bart.; Sir William Dunbar, Bart. ; Sir Robert Bar clay, Bart. ; Sir Allan Napier Macnab, Sir Richard Brown, Thomas Rolph, Esq. The offices of the As sociation are stated to be at No. 29, New Bridge street, Blackfriars. Sundry creditors not debited to any account. The LORD MAYOR—Did you consider you were going out for Mr. Haldon or the Association ? Blackmore said he thought he was going for the Association. The LORD MAYOR (having looked at some papers handed to him) said that Blackmore's contract cer tainly was with Mr. Haldon. His Lordship again condemned the delay which had taken place as to the starting of the vessel, and said it was a strange time of the year to send out a vessel to such a pla ce . Mr. Bourdillon admitted the fact of the lateness of the year for the voyage, but said that 40,000 persons were already at the destination, and that the Duke of Argyle was most anxious about the departure of his Highlanders, who were in great multitudes unable to obtain emplyment at home. The LORD MAYOR really did not think the Duke would wish his Highlanders to go at such a period of the year. Mr. Bourdillon—The Association is, my Lord, the child of the Duke of Argyle, who acts from the most benevolent motives, and is supported in his views by all the first men in Edinburgh and other parts of Scotland. lam happy that this has taken place, although intended as an injury to the Association. The LORD MAYOR—You think it will operate as a good advertisement. Mr. Bourdillon—Exactly so. We challenge in quiry, and are sure that the more there is made the better it will be for the Association. Jams Hammond, an engineer, who had engaged to go to Prince Edward's Island, stated that Mr. Haldon led him to believe that the Association had everything to do with the engagement. He had been told that all the preparations had been made not with money, but with bills, and he felt not inclined to go on that account, and for six weeks he was led to be lieve he would have an advance. There was a great deal of mystery about the transactions, which gave much dissatisfaction. The prospectus states further that the operations of the Association are intended to be commenced in se veral seigniories lying on the north bank, of the St. Lawrence, about halfway between Quebec and Mon treal, for the purchase of which agreements have been prepared. These tracts comprehending nearly 200,000 acres, have been selected as being admirably adapted, from their geographical position, to form to gether the centre of the transactions of a great and powerful Association. Several men having complained to the Lord Mayor that they had entered into contracts with those whom they considered to be the representatives of the Association to go to Prince Edward's Island, in the ship Barbadoes, his Lordship directed that the Captain, D. Campbell, who owned that vessel, and Wm. Haldon, who negotiated with the emigrants, should attend to answer the charge of violation of their contracts. In the cour s e o f th e loose and dis jointed statements made on Saturday, a great many assertions, upon the part of the complainants, were de nied upon the part of the individuals accused. One complainant stated that he gave up a lucrative business in London, in order to emigrate, and signed articles to go with the Captain to Prince Edward's Is land, and serve the Association at five guineas per month. After he was on board seven days another Captain, who superseded the first, wanted him to sign articles at five shillings a month less, and agreeing to go to any part of the world.—(Laughter.) He by no means relished such a proposal and refused to sign. Captain Campbell said the fact was, the first cap • fain was in pecuniary difficulties, and u na bl e t o go out with the ship, and another captain was procured, but it wasfound that th e secon d appo i ntment was a i very ndifferent one, for the gentleman who was se lected was one night picked up blind drunk in the Commercial-road, in the society of a low prostitute. The LORD MAYOR said that such a person certainly was not fit to take care of the lives of a number of our fellow creatures. Captain Campbell—Certainly not. But a captain has been since appointed who is in every respect quali fied for the undertaking. I am owner of this ship, and charter it, and am naturally anxious for her safety on every account, and no vessel can be better calculated, as is admitted upon all hands, to undertake the voyage. The LORD MAYOR—Is it not late in the year to send a ship to Prince Edward's Island? Captain Camp bell—Yes; but ships have been later. The LORD MAYOR—At a very high rate of insur rance then ? Capt. Campbell—No, no increase. Thomas Mitchell, a surveyor, here stated that he was in a good situation when Mr. Haldon engaged him to go to Prince Edward's Island, at 21.105. a week, and agreed to advance him 81., which was to be paid back out of witness's earnings. The LORD MAYOR asked whether there was any written agreement ? The witness replied that there was no agreement in writing, but Mr. Haldon had announced that he would abide by what appeared in print. Witness had broken up his house in order to go, and the inconvenience he was put to was immense. Mr. Haldon was anxious that witness should go with out any agreement at all, but the proposal was at once rejected. Mr. Haldon most solemnly assured the Lord Mayor that the most complete arrangements had been made on board for the reception of the emigrants; clothes adapted to the climate, and provisions and everything necessary for their location, were in readi, Childs, the constable, to whom the complainant had made these representations in the first instance, handed in several names of persons, who, he said, were desi rous of complaining of violation of their contracts by Mr. Haldon, or by the Association, but-- The LORD MAYOR advised Mr. Haldon to retire and make some arrangement with them, and his Lord ship stated that he would on Tuesday write to the Duke of Argyle upon a subject of such deep interest to the public. The vessel is now, it is believed, ready to sail. CLERKENWELL. Elizabeth Rose, an unfortunate girl, was charged with obstructing and assaulting police-constable Gold smith, whilst in the execution of his duty. From the constable's statement, it would appear that, at half-past nine o'clock on Saturday night, he was on duty in Charlotte-street, Bloomsbury, when he heard two women making a noise. He desired them to go away ;, but one of them, the prisoner, re mained, and told the other not " to go away for that b-y boy." He stated that when he was taking her into custody she gave him a kick, that he re quired the assistance of other constables to take her to the station-house, and that she gave him two kicks more there. Mr. LONG asked the prisoner what she had to say ? The poor creature exclaimed, " Oh, Sir, I have been cruelly treated. I did no harm ; I did no harm; I was not drunk ; I was dragged to the station-house. I have been locked up since Saturday night; and he (pointing to the constable) kicked me, and I have a bruise on my knee from it." Two constables bore testimony to the unnecessary violence of the complainant, when Mr. LONG said he would discharge the female. The complainant was a young officer, and was excited by her resistance ; but he used unnecessary severity, much more violence than was requisite. The case must be reported to the Commissioners. LAMBETH-STREET. Joss Pitmn, K 3as Yesterday, after the night charges had been dis posed of, police-constable h charged before Mr. Henry, y order a of the 91, w ce Commissioners, w ith assaulting Miss Julia Briggs, the daughter of a dyer, residing in the East India road, Poplar.

CORONERS' INQUESTS. SUSPECTED MURDER.—On Saturday an inquest was held at the Bridge House beer-shop, in the Old Kent-road, on a young woman (name unknown), whose body, with marks of violence upon it, was found in the Surrey Canal. After a brief inquiry, a juryman remarked that as there was so much suspicion about the case he thought it would be advisable to postpone the inquiry, in order, if possible, to procure further evidence. The body of the deceased, with severe marks of injury about the face, had been found, and it appeared to them (the jurymen) that before coming to a decision respecting the causes of her death, which there were strong grounds for supposing to have proceeded from violence, there ought, if possible, to be further testimony brought forward. In this view of the case the CORONER coincided, and the inquest was accordingly adjourned until Wednesday, (to-morrow.) As no persons have yet come forward to identify the body of the deceased, and as it appears she is totally unknown in the vicinity of the Surrey Canal, a description of her dress may lead to a discovery of who her friends are, and probably tend to bring other matters to light, bearing on the future investigation into the circumstances of her death. When taken out of the canal her dress was as follows :—A straw bon net with plait, trimmed with white riband, and flowers underneath on each side; a challis gown with green and white stripes on a buff ground ; nankeen stays, and a shift with the initials " S. S." marked on the bosom part; she had a pair of new shoes on her feet, and in her pockets were found several duplicates re lating to property pledged at the shop of L. Lloyd, Strutton-ground, Westminster. The articles were pledged in the name of " A Mayling." Last evening an inquest, adjourned from Friday last, was resumed before Mr. HIGGS, at the One Tun, Perkins-rents, Great Peter-street, West m i ns t er , on the body of Mary Fleary, aged 65. Mr. John Wright, M.D., of Princes-court, West minster, said he had examined the body, but could not detect any opium, or appearances of that poison. The brain was in a very congested state, which might arise from the action of the poison, mental excite ment, or simple apoplexy. From the morbid appear ances of the other parts of the body he thought the deceased had taken laudanum, but he could not speak positively. John Holland, of No. 36, Bowling-green-lane, Clerkenwell, the son-in-law, detailed at great length the delinquencies of the deceased, and produced 22 duplicates relating to his property, which the de ceased had pledged. On Tuesday week last he spoke to her about it, and the day following, unknown to him, she left his house, atter thrusting a number of tally bills, duplicates, &c., into the fire, and he had not seen her since. After her departure he ascer tained that she had had tally bills in his name, and by some means had become security for the loan of Si. from a Loan Society, 4/. of which she had retained herself. The Secretary of the Society had told him that if she ever came back he would prosecute her for a fraud. On Friday last, he received the following letter from the deceased :—" I have ruined myself by becoming answerable for so many people, and to drown reflection I have taken to drink to great excess. Mary Fleary." He had heard that she had followed it up by drinking great quantities of brandy and ale. She was a woman of strong mind, but after she left his house had nothing but a workhouse or a prison before her eyes. He had not the least doubt but she suffered great mental excitement. After a long deliberation the Jury returned a ver dict—" That the deceased died from congestion of the brain, but whether produced by taking laudanum, mental excitement, or natural causes, there was not sufficient evidence to show." A " Dr. Smith, of Liverpool," as he styles himself, has been making curious pretensions in London about a superior method of educating pauper girls. As he could not even remember the name of the village at which he said he had resided near that town, we have made some inquiry respecting him of Mr. John Smith, the well-known lecturer on the Smith and Dolier Helps to Education, andon Geographical Science, who is lec turing in Hull at present.

By means of round holes, supplied with vibrating cords, their kites are made to produce a loud h umm i ng noise, like that of atop. The ninth day of the moon is a holiday especially devoted to this national pastime, on which day numbers may be seen repairing to the hills for the purpose of kite-flying.

CENTRAL CRIMINAL COURT. OLD COURT. (Before the RECOR D ER.) CHARGE OF CUTTING AND MAIMING A SHERIFF'S OFFICER.---Martin Hussey, aged 39, was indicted for feloniously cutting and wounding William George Gibbs, on the 12th of September last, with intent to do him some grievous bodily harm. There was a second count charging him with attempting to resist his lawful apprehension. The defendant pleaded not guilty. Mr. CLARKSON, who appeared for the prosecution, stated that the prosecutor in this case was an officer of the Sheriff of Middlesex, who had been employed to arrest the defendant, on a writ of capias. The defendant resided at the Iron-gate Wharf, at Paddington, and on the 12th September, Gibbs the of executing the the prosecutor, went to defendant's house for the purpose process, and arresting th e d efendant. Gibbs found the defendant and his wife sitting together, and on mentioning his business, defendant's wife said that Gibbs should not arrest her husband. The officer attempted to serve the writ and to take his prisoner, on which defendant struck at him and struck his hat off t off. then seized round ed him by the collar, on which towards the fire place, seized a poker, with w hi ch he struck Gibbs across the head, inflicting a mos t severe woun d . Hussey's wife at the same tim e se i z i ng Gibb s b y t h e G d i e b f b e s nda t n h hair. A scuffle ensued while Gibbs was endeavour ing to get Hussey out, and during the scuffle Gibbs pulled Hussey into an ad joining room. Hussey and his wife endeavoured to throw Gibbs down, Hus sey threatening to bite Gibbs' ear. off. They got Gihbs down, aad while he was on the floor, Hussey struck him a blow with his fist in the eye. Gibbs then called out for assistance to a man named James Capelton, who had accompanied him to Hussey's house, but had remained outside. On hearing Gibbs call out Hussey desired his wife to shut the door to keep Capelton out. She shut the door, which Capelton ultimately forced open. Capelton and Gibbs then seized Hussey, who called to his wife to bring him a knife to rip Gibbs up. The wife did not bring the knife, and Hussey desired his daughter to bring a hammer. She did so, but it was taken away before Hussey could get hold of it. With the assistance of a policeman Hussey was then forced into a cab, and driven to the station-house, and ultimately to Whitecross-street Prison. At the station-house ' and on the way t o Whi tecross - s t reet, in the cab, Hussey repeatedly struck the prosecutor. The evidence of the prosecutor fully bore out the statement of the Learned Counsel. On his cross-examination by Mr. C. JONES, who conducted the defence, the prosecutor admitted that some time before he had an execution on defendant's goods, but denied that he had ever s a id t o d e f en d ant tliat for w hm he ou i ld , i t f defendant ell the attorney there was not enouwould dp prisoner had pay his fees and possession money. Prosecutor denied th at h e h a d hs seized w uok him,aprrrials 1 prisoner andne r beforeby swore s e a i t zin thtehco he le had sho we d pr i soner g a r untilhim. He denied positively that he had taken a pitchfork to break open Hussey's door. He had never taken a pitchfork with him at all. ..____ ...... _... Mr. CHADWICK JONES for the prisoner, took an objection to the second count of . the indictment, that ddre . ssed had lhe exc j e u e r d 3 e r d the apprehension, which the prisoner resisted, being an arrest under a civil process, was not an appre hension within the meaning of the Act. The RECORDER did not think there was much in the objection, but he would make a note of it. contended AlrC.and his authority—had done that which he . that JONES t II ti then prosecutor addressed had no right to do; and that, therefore, the prisoner was jus tified in resisting him. He should show b y evi dence that th e d o or of the prisoner's house was bolted, and that the prosecutor, Gibbs, had ob tained admission by breaking the door op en ; that his entry was illegal, and that consequentl y t h e prisoner was justified i n resisting his arrest. With regard to the injury which the prosecutor had re ce i ve d , t h e prisoner d en i e d th a t it had been inflicted by a poker. According to the prisoner's account, Gibbs had fallen down stairs in the scuffle, and had cut his head open by the fall. The Learned Counsel having concluded his address, called Robert %Vidling, who was at Iron -gate Wharf on the occasion in question, and who swore th a t h e saw Gibbs go into a s t a ble adjoining, take a stable fork, and wrench open the outer door of ilus- sey's house with it. Capelton was present, and I could not avoid seeing what Gibbs was doing. Witness did not hear any one call out before Capelton went in. He saw them all three, Hus sey , Gibb s, and Capelton, tumble down the stairs together. Witness .P- 4. ;;;7 4 ,/ - 7 body coming," and pushed her on to a bank. She still continued to scream out, upon which he let her go, mounted his horse, and rode off. A s h ort t i me afar, she met Henry Russell, who came to meet her, and she informed him of w h a t h a d occurred, and the conduct of the prisoner, and he (Russell) desired her to make her father acquainted with the circumstance. On Friday- morning she returned home from Bark ing, and then told her father of the conduct of the de fendant. In reply to the questions of Mr. HENRY, the wit ness said the prisoner held the rein of his horse's bridle on his arm, while he assaulted her, so that he could use both his arms. He had not made use of any improper language while endeavouring to force her into the field, nor had he attempted to kiss her. Mr. Samuel Peter Briggs, the father of the com plainant, said he had been informed by his wife, who was much afflicted at the occurrence, of the assault on his daughter on Friday morning last. He at once waited upon Mr. May, the' prisoner's Inspector, and related the circumstances to him, and Mr. May re commended him to forward his complaint to the Com missioners of Police. The defendant had since offered to make a humble apology for his conduct, and his wife had been to him (witness) to beg he would not press the case ; and though he felt it to be his duty to go on with his complaint, yet he did not wish, for the sake of his wife and family, that the defendant should be severely dealt with. Inspector May was sworn, and said for ten years and a half, while the defendant had done duty under him, his conduct had always been good. The men se lected for duty when a horse was required were per sons who had served in the army and dragoon re giments. The prisoner in his defence admitted seeing a young woman on the night in question and entering into conversation with her, when she said her name was Briggs, and that she expected her sweetheart to meet her a little further on. He denied in the most positive terms having dismounted from his horse, or touching the complainant in any way. Mr. HENRY observed, that it was quite impossible to doubt the defendant's identity, or that he was the person by whom the assault had been committed, as the complainant could have no object . in coming for ward and making such a statement against him. Had such an offence been committed by an ordinary per son, he should have felt it to be his duty to have im posed the highest penalty the law would allow; but being committed by a person whose duty it was to protect such persons as the complainant, the offence was thereby grievously aggravated. Under all the circumstances he would not inflict a pecuniary fine s as such, in his opinion, would not be commensurate with the crime he had committed, but would give him the sevQrest penalty he could record ; namely, one month'sjimprisonment in the House of Correction, with hard labour. Mr. Henry added to this sentence his opinion that he had disgraced himself as a man ; and the prisoner, who stands at least si x f ee t hi g h , was then removed from the bar. THAMES-POLICE. Yesterday a man named John Smith, who had been a thief from his infancy, was brought before Mr. Bra derip, charged under rather extraordinary circum stances with a marine burglary, in breakinT into the cabin of the schooner Ellen, in the river, with intent to steal the captain's and mate's watches and wearing apparel. Much interest was created by the prisoner's exa mination, and he is suspected to be one of a gang of river pirates lately released from various prisons, who have committed many daring robberies on the Thames during the last three weeks, and baffled the vigilance of the river police. Captain Jeffries, the master of the Ellen, said he went to bed between 12 and 1 o'clock on Saturday night, and left the candle burning on the table, and was roused up by the mate during the night, and on turning out, saw the prisoner running away. Mr. William Elliot, the mate of the Ellen, said the vessel was lying at Bell-wharf-pier, Lower Shad well. About one o'clock in the morning he was in his berth in the steerage, which is divided from the cabin by a pannel only, when he heard a great bustle in the cabin, and upon raising his head saw the pri soner close to the door with one hand on the pannel, and a waistcoat, which belonged to witness, in the other hand. He sang out " Who's that ?" but no answer was returned. He then hailed the prisoner a second time, and asked him what he wanted ? and as he did not speak, witness kicked the bed clothes off him, and told the intruder he would very soon see what he wanted. As he jumped out of bed the pri soner rushed up the companion, but he seized him by. his legs and found he had no shoes on. The pri soner released himself, ran upon deck, and just as he reached the gangway fell down. He was soon, however, upon his feet again, threw off his coat, and jumped clean overboard into the river. On reach- ing the water, he struck out as hard as he was able xi - wards the shore. Witness and the captain put the ladder over the bows, got down, and pursued him, and traced his footsteps among the barges on the shore. The prisoner aftirwards iook a round turn and got away, but they gave chase to him, and one of the ships apprentices caught him behind a pile, near Bell-wharf-stairs, and brought him up all standing. They made him fast until a policeman came to the spot, and then gave him into custody. There wa:s nothing removed but the waistcoat belonging to wit ness, but if the prisoner had s had time to overhaul the Captain's pockets he would have found a watch, be. sides a lot of money. Evans, the superintendent of Thames police, was asked if the prisoner was known, and he replied that he had been summarily convicted by the Magistrates eight times, and had not long come out of prison. His father and brother had been committed from that Court for robberies on the: river, and transported by the Judges at the Central Criminal Court. Mr. BRODERIP said it should not be his fault if the public was not relieved of the prisoner, and he would put him in the way of being transported for life. Al though no property had been stolen from the ship, there had been a sufficient removal of the waistcoat to constitute a felony in the eye of the law, and he should commit him for trial. The prisoner said he was in the cabin, but removed nothing, and seemed very anxious not to be sent to the Old Bailey, where his previous bad character might operate against him. He complained that a grindstone had been thrown upon him while he was in the water, of which the Captain and mate said nothing. The Captain said he had no grindstone on board. The prisoner —You chucked something very heavy on me ; it nearly sunk me altogether. It was a grind stone. Mr. BRODERIP-It is an imaginar7grindstone, you may depend upon it. I shall commit you for trial; you are too dangerous a character to be at large. lENTALS OF METROPOLITAN COMMISSIONS OF SEWERS NOR TH OF THE THAMES . .—Westminster, &c., Commission, 2,788,190/. ; Holborn and Fins bur, 1,316,013/. ; T ower H am l ets, 888,596/ ; City of London, 792,904/. • Poplar, 78,411/. ; St. Ka . tha rine's, 12;964/.
