A Satirical Tale of the Times. e Author of "Pelham" "Devereux," and "The Disowned." iry Colburn and Richard Bentley, New Burlington- The prisoner (who represented himself as an attor ney's clerk) was employed to collect debts for her husband. The prisoner, on the day in question, was employed to take the money in question to Ironmongers' Hall to pay the rent, as also the bill. If the latter was refused, he was to return imme diately. The prisoner did not return, nor did she see him till he was apprehended. No part of the money had been paid or recovered. By Mr. ADOLPHUS—Witness requested the pri-. saner' to take the money to the hail. The Learned Gentleman submitted that there was no case of felony to go to a Jury. John Lancaster was called to prove the delivery of the note and money to his-wife. • - • - Mr. Serjeant. ARABIN told the Jury that ,there. was no trespass in the original taking . ; therefore, as j.tbe law stood, he was sorry to say the prisoner ' must'be acquitted. Verdict—Not Guilty. ` The following , were , convicted 'of :felony before the COMMON SERJEANT—viz. Robert Freedom, John Roe, Thomas Parker, Thomas ,Jones, Ann. Knott, John Antiss, Alexander Andrion, John Barton, James Bailey, and Edward Howard: The following were acquitted by the; same Jury, viz. George Duncan, Charles Hunt, James Welch, James 'Wilson, and Isaac Stokes.

There were two circumstances of novelty, however, attending their present meeting. The first was that such a meeting should at all as semble in this place for the purpose of petitioning for Parliamentary and Burgh ReforM ; and, lecondly, hat it should be done under favour of a Govern ment which had declared itself willing to forward such an object. He did not see the force of the reason assigned by the Lord Provost as inducing him to decrne calling the present meeting.— For his part, he thought to be silent on so important a question, might be productive of very bad consequences. It was certainly neces- silty to do away with the impression under which Mr. Dundas had said in Parliament that the people f Scotland were not desirOus of Reform. He POLICE INTELLIGENCE.

Thomas Furby, a respectably-dressed young man, aged 21, described as a draper, was indicted for furgin and uttering a fictitious request fur the dc livery of certain shawls, with intent to defraud Ro bert Johnson and W'm. Buttner. The Jury found the prisoner Guilty, but recom mended him to mercy, on the ground of his having accounted for large sums of money previous to this charge. The ETCORDER feared that he could not attend to the recommendation of the Jury in this instance, as it was absolutely necessary that merchants and traders should be protected from frauds of this de scription. Benjamin Beattie was then charged with having forged and uttered a fictitious order for goods with intent to defraud the same prosecutors. The Jury found the prisoner Guilty, and he was sentenced to be transported for 1 , 1 years. John Phillips was indicted for having stolen from the Jewish synagogue, Leadenhall-strcet, a prayer book, the property of Samuel Josephs. The facts of the case have lately appeared in the Mansion-house report. The prisoner was found Guilty, and sentenced to be transported for seven years. James Westerly was indicted for having obtained by false pretences a quire o f t h e W - eekly Dispatch newspaper, with intent to defraud Richard James Wood, the acting publisher of that journal. In another count the intent was laid to be to defraud Mr. James Harmer and others.—The Jury found the prisoner Guilty. The COURT told the prisoner, that if he ever ap peared at that bar again he would be transported. To a question by the COURT, Mr. Violet said he discharged the prisoner for dishonest practices, he having robbed him of Gl. or 71. William Wiggins., a respectable-lookin g young man, was indicted for stealing cash and notes, value 9 61. 10s., and a bill of exchange for 9/. 13s. Gd., the property of John Lancaster.

(From the Aberdeen Chronicle.) ALEX. B e t e l a ii i i s:p g l i a i e t e n ,. a x i s l 'as n h „ ; o l l d .n , l. by requisi tion, the burtresses, heritors, , 111 :7 Si t sa l e i tillior e c tlida o eY u r r sa tf i l nf l ous e , for the purpose of petition ing; Esq , a ti n o d O n Esq. Banker, was ealleel to the nAgLoEf.xonArtNPhDeatElmitiaourntieloNtilitNarorß); Chair. Mr. BANNERmAN, after returning thanks for the honour said—L" I feel disap pointed ctluianfettrlri.edchtTiron wn i s thn iiOt filled by an older and more worthy citizen; and I regret exceedingly that the Lord Provost did not think it necessary to call the with gl.e meeting, lit bcouse I think h e m i g ht h ave p res id e d propriety on such an o c ca si on; an d if " h e h a d done so, a word, I am sure, would not have been uttered to create an unpleasant feeling to any one. For although I may differ, find this meeting may differ, in many points with the Lord Provost, a more honourable man than Mr. Haddcn does not ex i st , or one who, I am confident, feels a greater interest in the prosperity of the city, and the welfare of i ts inhabitants. As lam called to the chair, how ever, I consider my duty to be to promote, if pos sible, unanimity'; and if I durst mention the ob noxious word sinecure at a Reform meeting, I think I am placed in a sinecure office to-day. I regret that the requisitions, a n d I, among th e nu mb er , should leave presumed to levy a tax of Is. at the door; but if t h e petition from this meeting shall tend in the remotest degree to forward the good cause for which w e are assembl e d, the shilling will be well spent ; and I am glad to see so many more respectable he titors and laouseholders around Inc." Mr. ALLARDITE then rose and said, that the Lord Provost having declined to interfere, the re quisitionists resolved to call this meeting, and in structed a Committee of their number to prepare re solutions on the subject. The Committee had ac cordingly embodied the resolutions in the form of a petition to Parliament; and I now beg leave to pre. sent that petition for the approval of this numerous and highly respectable meeting. The petition was then read by the Chairman : after which Mr. Mar dyce moved its adoption, which was carried by ac clamation. Mr. PELLATT moved that the petition now read Id approved of, should be forwarded to the Right on. Laid Grey, to be presented to the House of ttrds;, end to Joseph flume, Esq., to be presented the Holle of Commons; and that copies of it ibuld also be sent to his Majesty's Ministers, and each of the 'Members of Parliament for Scotland. .e was glad that an opportunity had thus been pre tired to him to express his sentiments upon the •esent important question. If we examined history, e would find that the prosperity and greatness ',every state were commensurate with the freedom 'its institutions. He ; therefore, thought that the thought that the language of Lord Brougham should he particularly attended to, when he stated that the voice of the nation was lifted up in unanimous acclaim in favour of Reform. Combining the s!rength, unanimity, and ripeness of this feeling, with the public acts and promises of the new Government, the grand question of the Reform of the House of Commons cannot stand still, but must advance to an early consummation ; or evils, not to be contemplated, must be the result. He believed that. Parliamentary and Burgh Re form were inseparable,• and that if the one were granted, the other must follow. In regard to the extent- to. which . Reform should be carried, he thought it was better to leave that point to the wis dom of Government. It was not like the question of forming a new code of. laws, where the ground was Perfectly clear. It was rather like repairing an old kouse, where the skill of those acquainted with the building was requisite. The -whole matter was re duced to a single question—is Reform necessary ? The Government say it is, and we say the same, but give no dictation as to the remedy. But however the representation might be constituted, it was clear that the substantial wealth of the country should be included. More than this was unnecessary, and less would not do. Mr. Pellatt continued—Sir, I will only obtrude a very few remarks more on this meet ing. In characterising the inoffensiveness of the burgh system, as a system, let me not be misunder stood. = Let us not confound, too far, the system with the agents under it. I must say, for myself. having revolved the point, that were there a change of municipal government to-morrow (and I look seriously to it as a change that cannot be deferred long), I should not look for, I could not desire to see amid its functionaries, a greater quantum of in. dividual reepectability than we already have under the present system—l mean in this burgh. It would be well to remember that the stations of Ma gistrates must be filled by somebody—that all offices undertaken for the public benefit are thankless on the whole—that they require many sacrifices of time and domestic quiet, on the part of thOse who ill them—and that such Magistrates are themselves the miniFters of God for good to the good, and foK evil to the evil; and are, therefore, on high conside• rations, entitled to _our honour, fear, and gratitude. At a moment like the present, I feel it to be my duty to see that, in exposing the errors of the burgh system, we do not undermine the. influence and re spectability of the public authorities. There is a manifest 'delicacy in individualising, but I may glance at one gentleman—who has grown old under the old system—who has preserved an unsullied in tegrity (as, indeed, all his colleagues have) under a system well calculated in itself to shelter corrupt practices—who has, as a public character, exile- rienced the vicissitudes of popularity incident to it ; but who challenges the increasing esteem of his Fellow-citizens, as ahighly respectable individual, and a truly virtuous Magistrate. Among the other good things I would wish this individual to witness, is the spectacle of the auto dafe of the old system, with which he has been so long and so closely con neetid, and the regeneration of a new one, better suited to the genius of an improved age, and more acceptable to the general wishes and feelings of community. Mr. CALDER—We owe a debt of gratitude to his most gracious Majesty, who has so lately as cended the throne of his ancestors, for his so readily forming the Administration composed of men of sbining, talents, who ere pledged to a correcting of all abuses. He then moved, " That the meeting, considering that this is the first public occasion of the inhabitants assembling together since the com mencement of the present reign, do unanimously vote a loyal and dutiful address to his Most Gra cious Majesty King William the Fourth, and to her Majesty Queen Adelaide, on their accession to the Throne of these realms, and at the same time ex press their gratitude that his Majesty has been pleased to cell to his Councils men who have de• dared their sentiments, in governing the State, to be Reform, Economy, and Peace."—Motion una nimously carried. Mr. JAMES MELLIS said, that he was a very old reformer, and could bear testimony to one fact stated in the petition, viz. :—That the evils of the present burgh system were recorded in Parliament. He himself was a member of a Committee for burgh reform so early as 1790; and a similar statement was made by Mr. Dundas, as now, that no change was wanted in the burgh system; petitions upon petitions were poured into the House of Commons ; the English Members could not reconcile Mr. Dun das's statement with the prayers of these petitions ; a Committee was named in the House to inquire into :he matter ; and but for the breaking out of the French Revolution, he bad no doubt but redress would then have been obtained. He was glad to' see that his Majesty's Ministers had taken up the matter ; they only wanted the support of the people to carry through their good intentions. At the period he at first alluded to, the reformers had had " a long pull ;" in 1718 they had " a strong pull ;" and he hoped that now they would be unanimous, and have " a pull altogether." Mr. PHILIP said, that lest the Reform for which they petitioned might not be accomplished so speedily as was anticipated, or, when brought for ward, it migh the necessary to look for our own share of the benefit, he would propose that a standing Committee be appointed, to svatch the progress of Parliamentary and Burgh Reform, and in particular to see that the interests of Aberdeen were duly cited for. The motion was put and agreed to, and a Committee accordingly appointed. On BAILLIE MILNE'S tame being mentioned, that gentleman rose and said, that it gave him great pleasure to attend the present meeting of the citi zens of Aberdeen—that ha fully concurred in the moderation of the resolutions, which did credit to the meeting, and he would be glad to do all in his power to forward their views; but that he had now ;irrived at that period of life, when it was desirable that he should keep himself aloof from all public business; and, while he felt the high compliment paid by his fellow citizens, in natnino• him as a member of the Committee, and warmly applauded the object of the meeting, he felt compelled to de cline, for the reason he had stated, the honour in tended him. Great applause followed the delivery of this speech, and at its conclusion, the Chairman said, t hat Bailiie Milne, he hoped, would allow his name to stand en the Committee ; he had already been blamed " for being in - bad company, but he hoped that now—"—(Baillie Milne here bowed acqui escence.) The conclusion of the Chairman's obser vation was drowned amid the plaudits of the meet ing ; upon which Baillie Milne replied, that he Yesterday Edmond binzmons and Samuel Davis were brought up for final examination, on the charge of having broken into and plundered the Jews' Syna gogue in. Duke's-place, of property to the value of 301. and upwards. • The examination excited a great deal of interest, and the justice-room was crowded to excess. The case was protracted and complicated by reason of the conflicting evidence. Mr. Hobler, jun. attended for the prosecution, Mr. Wooler for the defence. Mr. Moses Samuel, Secretary to the Jews' Syna gogue, deposed that between the 20Th and the 211 re of December the synagogue was broken into and entered apparently at the casement near one of the staircases. The poor-box; containing charity-money, was stolen, as well 'as three sets of the handles af the Pentateuch, and other articles belonging to the sacred place. There were two silver basins in the Synagogue, but they were not touched. On the spot kvhere the plunder was committed a phos phorus-box and a piece of candle were found. (This witness stated, incidentally, that any injury done to the Pentateuch, which comprehended the Jewish sys tem of faith, was considered as a judgment of Pro vidence, and that a tint generally followed, and ac veral of the Jews had fasted on this occasion.) Mary Moss deposed, that at half-past six in the afternoon on Monday, the 20th of December, she saw Davis and two young men, who were dressed like sailors, near the synagogue. Davis pointed at the synagogue, and that 'matted her attention. An officer produced a phosphorus-box, which was found under the circumstances stated above in the synagogue. He searched Simmons's lodgings, and found some bullets, picklock keys, and other things used by desperate characters. _ _ Elizabeth Seddens, a woman of the town, at about four in the afternoon of the 20th of Decem ber, was sitting at her tea at her lodgings, No. 22, Elizabeth street, Waterloo-road, with the prisoner Siminens, with whom she then cohabited, a man named Wilkinson, and a girl of the town, named Anne Hillyard, who lived with Wilkinson. The prisoner Davis and another person entered, and told; Simmons and Wilkinson he would put them into . a good thin g if they would give him a share. Upon being aske d what the thing wae, they re plied that it was to be done at the Jews' Syna gogue. The men then went out, and returned in a couple of hours. Witness then stated that the prisoners afterwards met at the Crown public house, and that conversations took place amongst them, from which it appeared to be evident that they had robbed the synagogue—that Simmons and Wilkinson had determined to keep ail the pro fits,' and not give a halfpenny to Davis or his com rade—that they had agreed not to take the silver basins, and that they calculated upon the robbery being laid upon the. glaziers.. Witness also swore that the phosphorus box found at the synagogue belonged to Simmons, with whom she had seen it : and that Simmons sported plenty of money and a change of clothes, soon after the robbery. Mr. Wooler begged that, in so serious a cate, be fore the Lord Mayor would think of committing the prisoners on the evidence of a prostitute, his Lord ship would hear the testimony of the girl of the town who was said to have been taking tea with the accusing female.—His Lordship consented. Anne Hillyard then swore that she did not take tea on the 20th of December with Elizabeth Sed dons, and that of cotirse she neither saw nor heard any thing of what had been stated. She believed all that:Seddons had stated was false, and she had been herself the whole of the Monday at her father's house. Mr. Hobler then begged that his witness might be called to destroy the evidence of Anne Hillyard, and he called her brother, Jesse Hillyard, who swore that she had not been at her father's house on the day in question. He, however, admitted that he had been asleep a part of the day. His Lordship examined all the witnesses with a great deal of judgment, and stated that he con , sidered there was a case against each of the pri soners. Mr. Wooler submitted, that it would be useless to send Davis for trial at all events, as no Jury could think of finding him guilty. The evidence might justify a charge of conspiracy to plunder: but would not excuse a committal for burglary. The LORD MAYOR considered the evidence quite strong enough. Simmons (against the advice of Mr. Wooler) gan to defend himself by attacking the evidence of Elizabeth Sedduns. The two prisoners were then fully committed for trial. GUILDHALL. William Berry, formerly a clerk in the office of the secretary to the Board of Excise, Dublin, was b ought before Sir P. LAURIE yesterday, for re•cx amination, upon a charge of defrauding several ta vern•keepers. Sir PETER LAURIE remanded him till Tuesday, as there was a prospect that the complainants would be paid, and deputed Mr. Joy to take an account of their claims. BOW-STREET. Yesterday Mr. Thomas, superintendant of letter F division of police, mentioned to Mr. Miss Hum, that John Reader, one of the men in his division, had for some time been annoyed by the brothel keepers in Lazenby-court, who had used every en deavour to bribe him, but without effect. A man named Levy, who kept the brothel No. 1 in the court, and which was decidedly the worst conducted of them all, had last night forced a crown piece upon him by thrusting it down his breast ag.tinst his will. The constable very properly reported the circumstance to h;rri (Mr. Thomas), and handed over the crown to him, and feeling at some loss how to dispose of it, he now offered it to the Ma gistrate, in order that it might be applied to some charitable purpose. Mr. MiNsuum, observed that the conduct of the constable appeared very meritorious, and he directed that a summons should be immediately issued, re quiring the brothel-keeper to attend before him, to account for having interfered with the constable in the execution of his duty. The defendant soon afterwards appeared, when The constable came forward and stated, that having heard that robberies took place almost every night in the defendant's house, he determined to warn per sons from going to it; and accordingly, a few nights ago, he cautioned a gentleman whom he saw about to enter the house with a female, not to go in, add ing that if he did he would most assuredly be robbed. The gentleman was very thankful for the warning, and declined to enter the house. Last night the defendant met him in the court, and entered into conversation with him, saying that if he knew his own interest he would shut his eyes to what was going on around him, and then he offered him a new silk handkerchief, and also a hare, which he said he had in the house for him. Witness, how ever, declined positively to accept of any present from the defendant, telling him that he knew what his object was, and was determined not to be bribed by him, but that, on the contrary, he was resolved to watch his house more narrowly thou ever. The defendant than thrust the crown piece in question down his breast, and went away. The defendant denied that he made any attempt to bribe the constable, and said he merely asked him to take a glass of liquor. Mr. MiNsnum. directed the constable to go
