Cornelius Sarpeant, aged 20, was capitally indicted for Stealing twenty silver spoons and three 101. notes, the property of Mr. Thomas Kingston. It appears from th e ev i dence that the prosecutor is a chemist, living in Lower Belgnive-street.

It was a lso lod proved i t by Mr. P onton, a hatter in the Strand, that on the following t h e robbery, the prisoner changed one of d the 10/. notes with him. The prisoner made no defence, nor called any witnesses to character. Mr. Justice DAYLRY summed up, and the Jury re turned a verdict of Guilty—Death. The prisoner asked the Court to order that a watch, taken from him at the time he was apprehended, m i ght i be j:fTert up, as h e sa id i t was left him by his gran dfathe r.

The winners then went on to state the eireningtancea of his being instructed to take the prisoner into custody, which be did on the night of the same day, at which time be (the prisoner) said that he knew he had done wrong, and he (witness) might do with him just what he pleased. By Mr. Pitarars—The prisoner told me he bad been to Mr. Harmer to enquire if he was justified under the circumstances in taking away the box, and he found that he was not. There was more money in the box, which the prisoner might have taken if he pleased. By Mr. CLARKSON—IIe did not go to Mr. Harmer':; until after he took the box. The prisoner entered into a king defence. He had, he said, belonged to the Society for 15 years, lint from an in fringement of one of the rules he lost his employment, and in consequence went down to Windsor, where he kept a little sin:tit. Whilst there he seas taken ill, and he de dared on the Society's box, after receiving the. allowance • for five weeks, the Society fancied that he was not ill. from the circumstance of his one night closing the shut ters of his shop. (His wife, who generally used to do so, being unable on that night from severe indisposition), and he was in consequence of this turned out of the club; he Paine to London, produced a rureeon's certificate of hi+ ill health, and offered to go with the stewards to any medical man to convince them he was not practising a deception. They, however, peremptorily refused to re admit him, and on the following morning, acting under an impulse that he was only asserting his sigh's be took away the box, and also what money he considered .that he was entitled to. If lie hail done xrong it was not from a dishonest motive, for his character was above reproach. and he had maintained a wife and four children with credit from his industry, A clerk of Mr. Hartnerla stated, that on the morn ing after the prisoner took the box, he called at their office awl told them what he hail done, when he was informer] that he had acted illeg illy. lie then expressed his sorrow, and appointed to meet witness at a police office on the following day. He was, however, in the mean time apprehended. A great number of witnesses gave the prisoner a most excellent character. ' Mr. Justice BOSANQUET, in summing up, said, if the Jury were of opinion that the prisoner took the box with a felonious intent, the circumstance of his being a member of the club formed no ground of justification. The Jury, after some deliberation, returned a verdict of Not Guilty. SECOND EurrtoN. SUN OFFICE, Four o'Clock.

I am sorry to add, that amputation has been deemed necessary to ofFord even a chance of Mr. HustossoN's recovery, of which, however, there is but slight hopes.

Mr. Kum was called to the chair, and after some conversation, propositions were carried to the effect that Sir FRANCIS Buanarr, Mr. iloanousx, and Mr. Alderman Woon, should be requested to form part of Mr. WAILIIT'S Committee in that district A numerous list of freeholders, who had volunteered to serve on the Committee, was then handed in, after which the meeting adjourned. In consequence of the refusal to canvass on the part of those gentlemen professing liberal opinions, who have address, d the electors of Southwark, several influen tial individuals have determined on proposing as a candi date that Gallant Officer Lord COCURANX, and wo are persuaded that should his Lordship come forward in his usual open and candid manner, little doubt need be enter tained of his success.—Aforning Paper. The effect produced on the nerves of some persons, when spoken to by Royalty, is quite astonishing. One day last week the Quzzn, the Duke of Camcattnac, and the rest of the Royal suite, returning from their walk round the town, his Royal Highness asked a sentinel oppo• site the Steine, if the gate was open. The poor fellow shouldered arms, but made no reply, seeming absolutely petrified. The question was repeated, but still no answer was returned, the soldier continuing to stare with stupid amazement. A third time the Duke asked if the gate was open ; when at last the sentinel, in a faultering voice, re plied, " No, your Highoess."-;-Brightots Gazette.

A bre,ich of PR (num—F. E. When the KING came out of Mrs. FITZIIEII, BEET'S on Thursday last, some person, rather shabbily dressed, went up to the carriage, as it left the door, and presented a note to the servants, requesting them to give it his Maatvry ? this not being complied with, the fel low pushed forward, and dropped the note into the car riage through the window. On another occasion, when his 111,a3srry was leaving Mailmen's, 'a person, respectably attired, intruded into the passage, and put a letter in the tirwo's hand. Although his MAJESTY did not evince any displeasure, hut, on the contrary very good-naturedly took the letter with him into the carriage, we ere assured that lie is not pleased at being thus troubled in his drives about the town, and such conduct roust, if persisted in, deter his AIAJKIITY from so often appearing in public as otherwise would be the case.—Brighton Gazette. MRS. FITZHERBERT.—This lady, who once exercised such an important influence on the fortunes of the Prince of WALES, afterwards GEORGE THE FOURTH, was so deeply affected when informed of his late Majesty's death, that she has ever since been confined to her chamber, very seriously ill—and, from her advanced age, and conse quent infirmities, her recovery is considered doubtful. Her maiden name was &mu ; her father a Roman Ca tholic gentleman of an ancient and respectable family ; and previously to her connection with the Prince alit had been twice married ; on the firs► occasion, when only fif teen years of age, to Mr. WEL% the proprietor Of Lulworth Castle (the place assigned to the ex-King CHARLES X. as a residence), who was desirous of an heir to his exten sive estates; in this, however, he was disappointed, for he died without issue in less than a year after marriage, and his estates passed to the possession of his brother THOMAS, father of Da. WELD, whom the Pore has lately invested with the dignity of Cardinal. The lady was again married, before she had completed her twen tieth year, to Mr. FITEHERBERT, but in little snore than three years she was again a widow, and remained single until the period when the heir-apparent to the Crown saw and was fascinated by her charms, thus ripened into maturity. Her virtue, however, Was proof against the temptations of becoming the mere mistress of 4 Prince, and they were privately married, according to the forms both of the Protestant and Catholic Church. The Ro man Catholic Priest who married them consulted his safety by quitting England immediately afterward., and he was well provided for in another country. A separation, induced by prudential considerations, afterwards took place; but there seems, notwithstanding, to have been a strong mutual attachment ; and after the Prince's un happy marriage with, and separation from, the Princess CAROLINE or BRUNSWICK, the connection was renewed. The lady has for many years lived in comparative retire ment; she had an allowance of 6,000/. a year from the KING, the continuance of which has been secured to her upon his Majesty's death. She has been on terms of in timacy with most of the other members of the Royal Family, both male and female, and has received from them visits of condolence since the death of their Royal brother. --Caledonian Mercury. WORCESTER MUSICAL FESTIVAL, SEPT.I 14.—Tke 107th meeting of the three choirs of Worces ter, Gloucester, and Hereford, took place this wtek at Worcester. The principal ringers engaged are Madame MALIBRAN, Mrs. W. KNYVETT, Miss CRAMER, Messrs. MADAM, VAUGMAN, W. KNYVETT, Plintars, E. TAY LOR, and Signor us Manta. The instrumental band, led by F. Caastia, comprises Messrs. Loint.itv, DILA GOWITTI, WILLMAN, NICIIOLsON, PLATT, and Marla, and consists of about sixty performers, and the chorus of seventy. Mr. CLARKE, the organist of the cathedra), is the conductor. The performance this morning is inci dental to the regular service of the church, its principal feature being the matchless Dittengen Te ,Daum of HANDEL ; and seldom have we heard it better performed. The music which was introduced into the service consisted of a kind of selected requiem, said to be " in comme moration of his late Most Gracious MaresTy," We pre. sume this was decided upon immediately after his MA JESTY'S decease; it seemed rather late and out of place. Dr. Boycs's imam, " Blessed is be," was more ap propriate, though rather tedious. The duet of " Here shall sort Charity" (we speak with all respect for BoYcs's memory) might be allowed a little repose, and it was not in good taste to thrust it into an anthem which every body felt to he too long. The sermon was presehed by the Bishop of lioctieweert, who is Dean of Worcester to hoot. The cathedral was filled with well-dressed company; and in a temporary gallery on the side, the Maus. of KENT and the Princess VICTORIA were among the auditors, FANCY SALE FOR TIIE NATIONAL SCHOOLS. On Satuiday last the fancy sale was held in the Rimini!, and beautiful rums of the National School, in Church- street, Brighten. It was honoured by the immediate patronage of her MAJESTY, who has condescended to take much interest in the establishment. Soon after twelve o'clock, Church•street and part of the New-road, and Rood-street, were crowded with carriages; and, notwith standing the rain which fell plentifully, those streets were also thronged with great numbers of spectators. At half past twelve o'clock her MAJESTY, accompanied by the Princess Aunus'rA, the Landgravine of IlEssal Homnunu, Earl end Countess of Eason, Miss Furzet.AßENeF„ and others of the Royal suite, arrived at the Schools in theil carriages. Ac! OM the pavement and hall a scarlet cloth was laid down. Her MAJESTY was received at the en trance by the Rev. H. M. WAGNER, Vicar, Sir litvrn Scorr, Bart., the Rev. T. COOKE, and the Rev. T. TaoeicE; and the Churchwardens, Mr. Coanv, Mr. T. PALsica, and Mr. YEATES. The Royal party were first conducted to the school-room, where the children were assembled, who immediately sung the National Anthem. The sale-room, when her MAirsTv entered, war filled by persons of consequence•. The QUEEN walked up to the various stalls, and entered into conversation with the flit . - l'erent ladies who presided, snaking purchases, we believe. of all of them. Her MAJESTY and suite then descended the staircase, and entered the school-room below, escorted by the Earl of Eattor., Sir Davtn Scorr, the Rev. Arica R, and the Rev. T. Coma: ; nt the entrance her Ntaaawry stopped a few minutes to view the children. The QUEEN then advinced to the top of the room, and for a short time took a seat on one of the forms among the children. There was not the least appear ance of affect , d condescension in this; her MAJESTY possessing the 'happy quality of being able to de scend to the mist ordinary incidents, without losing her dignity for a moment. A lady, many years older than her MAJESTY, accidentally dropping in the avenue some article which lad been purchased, the QUEEN im mediately stooped, took it from the floor, and presented it to the lady with that admirable affrhility of which her MaJcsiv is so entirely mistress. The QUICEW then arose, and walked down the avenue towards the entrance, there entering again into conversation with several ladies and gentlemen, occasionally looking round, and viewing the children with evident marks of satisfaction. Her MA. JESTY was dressed in a black silk gown, with gold brace let', and wore a' white silk bonnet with black and white wreath, in her band was a small basket, containing a few of the articles purchased. Some drawings, which the Earl of ERROL carried, seemed to excite considerable attention. Having again surveyed the children, her MA JESTY ascended the steps at the entrance of the room, and proceeded down the stairs, through the hall, tr her carriage. Each side of the stairs an I hall was lined with Indies and gentlemen. On leaving the school-room her MAJESTY graciously bowed to the persons around, and returned the silent but affectionate salutations of those on the stairs and in the ball, with her usual kindnes4 and cande•rensiun.--Brighton Gazette.

THE DUKE OF BRUNSWICK.—IIia Serene Highness the Duke of Baustriwtcx, wi n , arrived in London yesterday morning, proceeded (says a correspondent) in a haehney-coach the same afternoon to the Colonial Office, where, it was preowed, he announced his arrival.— Shortly after he came out of the Office, he entered the coach, sad drove off. In height his Highness is about five feet ten inches, flat faced, and rather stout in person. Dr. GRAY, the respected Bishop of Bristol, narrowly escaped being burnt on Sunday week. He preached in the evening at Bishop-Wearmouth church, and just as he was commencing his sermon, the sleeve of his robe came in contact with one of the candles that lighted the pulpit, and unfortunately caught tire. His Lordship having a glove in the other hand, instantly put out the flume, happ►ly with little injury. ENGLISH OPERA, ADELPIII TUEATRE,--• Last night, the comic opera of the Marriage of Figaro was played at this theatre, for the purpose of introducing Mrs. Evatis, who has already made her successful debut as Rolm:, in a new and more difficult character, that of Susanna. Her voice is a soprano of greater compass than any upon the boards at present, and her science is only to he equalled by her execution. She possesses abilitiea which, when sufficiently matured by experience, will enable her to take a higher rank in genteel comedy than it usually falls to the lot of operatic singers to maintain. She is very pretty, and very lady-like, two qualities of vast consequence to candidates for theatrical honours. Throughout the piece her performance was highly applauded, and we have now no doubt of her ultimate and deserved success in the profession which she has chosen. Mrs. KEELEY played, for the first time, the .1)on Juno of a page Cherubim), and never have we seen it performed with more charming humour and vivacity. She was much applauded. Miss Ems, as the Countess Abnavira, was equally deserving of approbation. In fact, as a whole, we never saw any piece whatever so admirably sustained. The theatre was crowded to the very ceiling. .• There are stated to be no less than 200 English enrolled as privates in the French National Guard.

LAW OI: REAL PROPERTY.—Nn. XI. SECOND REPORT OE Tim COMMISSIONERS. (Continuedfrom our Paper of yetßerday.) It may be objected to the plan, that easeft would inmetimes occur of mistake as to the title nutlet v hi c h l an d is held, and that the party referred to he wrong title in the index, would not only fail of )btaining the benefit provided by the Register as to nrior estates and charges, but, after, registering his conveyance, would remain liable to have the estate acquired by it defeated by the subsequent acts of the grantor; and that in the latter respect he would be in a worse situation than that under. the present law, which gives a purchaser a good title against the subsequent acts of the persons under whom he claims. Before we proceed. to the discussion of this objec tion, we may observe that under the present law security against the subsequent acts of the grantor is not universal. On the contrary, it very commonly happens that a subsequent grantor is enabled to de 'eat a party claiming under a prior conveyance by getting in sin outstanding legal estate. Under the present system, where no assistance is afforded beyond the documentary evidence to which the patty may have access, colnected with the facts, as to possession and acts of ownership, it sometimes happens that where the grantor holds different estates tinder separate titles, and the property has been con eyed by general or imper'ect descriptions, there is difficulty in distinguishing the title under which par ticular lands are held. This takes place not unfre quenly where an estate is made up of small pieces ()fluid acquired by put chase at different times. in such cases, if due caution be not used in requiring • the proper evidence of seisin in the party from whom the title is supposed to be derived, the purchaser may fail in the investigation, and may accept a title not in fact relating to the estate. It is obvious that here protection cannot be afforded by a Regis ter, the provisions of which must always apply to the actual title ; under the existing system of regis tration, founded on alphabetical indexes of names, there is necessarily the same want of protection against prior registered deeds where the wrong title has been made the subject of investigation; and this liability to failure must exist under any other sr tem, unless the occurrence of mistake as to title could be prevented by making it a condition to due registration, that every description in a registered document shall refer to some original description of the land, by maps or otherwise, the objections to which we have before stated ; hut upon the pro posed plan, the consequence to which we have be fore adverted would follow, that a grantee might be defeated by parties claiming by subsequent convey ance from the grantor, registered with reference to the real title. It must therefore be considered, first, whether the case of invalid registration, occasioned by mistake as to title, will he likely to occur; and, secondly, whether the operation of the Register, in cases of failure, will he injurious. We think that, after the establishment of the Register, the order and connection as to title which will be induced by the provision requiring registra tion i►► immediate connection, from time to ,time with the anterior title, will render the occurrence of circumstances under which the actual title could be mistaken, extremely rare ; and provision may be made for cases where there may be difficulty in de termining under which of two titles the estate is held, by a power to index the document under the symbol of one of the titles, mid to make a reference from the other. Altogether we aro satisfied that, with the ordinary diligence which must be expected from persons who desire the security to title afforded by law, the chance of failure will be extremely small. We here take occasion to remark, that the laxity which certainly exists as to compliance with the provisions of the present Registers, is not to be ex pected after the establishment of a General Register, upon the principles which, will so essentially alter the nature of the security upon which title to land rests. A strict attention to the provision. of the Register will become one of the most im portant duties of persons intrusted with the business of conveyancing, and there can be no reason for not expecting from professional men, the same acquaints ance with the provisions of the Register, and the same exactions in practice with reference to regis tration, as are now necessary with regard to the complicated machinery in use for the rotection of titles, and the nice and perilous technicalities to which minute attention is essential in the ordinary proceedings for barring entails. Cases often occur requiring an exact acquaintance with some of the • most abstruse and difficult parts of the law of real property, and there can be no question, that a far less degree of skill and attention will be necessary for compliance with the provisions of the Register. Admrting, however, that cases of mistake as to the real title will sometimes arise after the establish ment of the Register, it is to be considered whether this occasions any real ground of objection to the plan. The evil at present is the frequent occurrence, in every title, of opportunities for the intervention of fraud or mistake ; in every step of the title a deed tnay have been suppressed or overlooked; no con trivance or skill is required for the commission of the fraud ; every man understands that a settlement or charge interferes with alienation, and that the diffi culty will be removed by suppressing the deed; yet, with the constant opportunities thus afforded, and the facility with which frauds may be committed, and the risk which must always be incurred, of a settlement or charge having been overlooked, the instances in which purchasers are prejudiced are • comparatively so rare, that some persons have con ' sidered the danger not of sufficient importance to cull for the establishment of it Register. But in order to produce's case in which, after the establish ment of a Register, the title acquired by a purchaser or mortgagee could be prejudiced subsequently by the fraud of the vendor or mortgagor, when the title has been mistaken, a concurrence of several circumstances must happen. It must be supposed that the descriptions in the deeds relating to estate A. held under a registered title, have general words which might have included estate 8.,0r that the descriptions are of such a nature as to dmit of their application to estate IL That upon the sale or mortgage of estate 8., the title to estate A. is offered, instead of that to estate 13,, and that the purchaser or mortgagee accepts the title without requiring proper evidence of the seisin of estate 8., by the party from whom a title is derived, through general or imperfect descriptions ; that. the wrong title was offered to the purchaser or mortgagee in consequence of knowledge in the vendor or mort gagor of some defect 10 - the real title, or for the pur pose of enabling the vendor or mortgagor to defraud a subsequent purchaser or mortgagee (a case of prospective fraud which we believe scarcely ever happens), or that the vendor or mortgagor after , wards discovers that a mistake has been made, and ascertains the real title, and (except in the above mentioned case of prospective fraud, which implies legal skill) that the vendor or mortgagor him suffi cient knowledge to be aware of the legal effect of the state of circumstances, or that the opportunity for fraud is suggested to him by a professional per son. It must, we think, be admitted, that such a case could not often occur. And if the actual infre quency of fraud with reference to the many cases where at present opportunities for it are afforded, be applied to the few cases in which, after the establish ment of a Register, the state of circumstances before adverted to will arise, the risk is so reduced that we think it may safely be disregarded. The same reasoning applies to the case of a sob ! seqoent disposition by the vendor or - mortgagor through mistake. The danger most to be apprehended when the title has been mistaken is that et a disptisition under general words, without an intention to affect particular lands which have been before disposed of. nisi might be met by a provision denying effect, against registered deeds, to a Conveyance of pro perty.not sufficiently specified to show an intention thatit should pass. If a party, After havin g so ld particular lands, makes a conveyance with general words, such as " all the [midi of the said (grantor)" it is obvious that the effect of these words, inde pendently of the provisions of the Register, would not extend to the lands before sold, and fug the aresumption must be that these were not in the !ontemplation of the parties. To what extent the provisionwy have last lug 'rested may be carried without inconvenience, will be a subject for consideration. We will bereremerk that we think some restriction as to the effect of ge neral words in a conveyance of lands very desirable with reference to title generally. This is a question to which our attention will be particularly directed. The conclusion we draw is that the possibility, or even probability of occasional failure, in complying with the requisites to due registration (which muse exist, we apprehend, in a greater or Jess degrees under any system which could be adopted) does not create an important objection to the plan, even if it were admitted that the consequence of a failure in registration, followed by a disposition by the grantor in derogation of his conveyance, would he ittcon %latent with the general object of the Register. But we think that in such a case the operation of the Register would be in accordance Kith stri, t principle. We will take the case (which we con sider the only one which can be contemplated) or mistake as to the real title under which the land is held. A. having two estates, B. and C. produces to D. an intended mortgagee of estate 8., 010 title deeds ;elating to estate C. D. does Hot dile cover the fraud or mistake, that is, ha fails in requiring proper evidence that the title deeda produced apply to the land proposed as , a sel, curity ; he accepts the title and registers under the symbol oldie title C. A.afterwards mortgagesor pens estate B. to 8., having produced to him the title deeds to that estate, and E. registers under the proper symbol. It is evident that as between D. and B. the latter is the person to whom protection ought to be afforded, both upon general principles and the scheme of the proposed Register; E. has failed in nothing. The title which he has scripted is a perfect one, unless affected by a suppressed IL» strument, and against the danger of suppression the Register protects him. Without the protection af forded by the Register the lose would fall on 4. — The Register shifts the loss from the party .who has used due diligence, and to whom no neglect or mistake con be imputed to the party who has failed in his investigation, and, from want of caution or otherwise, has accepted a wrong title. The ohjec don must, therefore, be confined to this, that the Register does not prevent the possibility of a party mistukiug the title, and thereby failing to obtain the benefits intended to be afforded to purchasers. The conclusions at which we arrive are— Ist. The requisites to a valid registration upon the proposed plan are so few and simple, that, nail proper checks in the office, it is almost impossible that error should occur, except in eases of nistaku its to title. 2dly. The provisions as to registration would ins duce such order and connection in the deduction of t itl e , that cases of mislake of title would very rarely occur after the establishment of the Register: :Idly. Instances in which, by fraud or mistake, lands are dealt with without disclosing a prior con veyance or charge are found to be so rare, that the chance of such a concurrence of circumstanc e s. as would he necessary for a CM of actual 10411 to arise, is infinitely small ; and, ‘lthly. That in the possible case of a concurrence of circumstances in which loss would accrue, the operation of the Register would be beneficial in giving preference to the party who ought to be preferred. We think it tveful to make a summary statement of the principal benefits which we conceive will he produced ►mmediately or consequentially by a Gene ral Register established on the plan detailed in this Report. Ist. Titles will be rendered secure against the fraudulent suppression of documents, and against their non-production through ignorance, mistake, or accident. 2d. Titles will be simplified; legal estates in trustee will not be kept on foot and transferred after the purposes of their creation shall have been an swered; thus there will be only one title to an estate instead of many 3d. Titles will not be exposed to the present - hal zard, from the equitable doctrine of notice. 4th. Titles will not be liable to be defeatedb subsequent acts of third parties. 6th. Titles will not be liable to be' defeated irt consequence of the loss or destruction of dociiMents. 601. Forgery deeds will become more perilous. 7th. The difficulty and expense of giving deeds in evidence in Courts of Justice will be greatly di minished. Bth. Attempts at fraud by concealing prior estates and incumbrances ; attempts at forgery of deeds; and attempts at supporting and defeating claima ty false testimony, will be prevented or materially checked. 9Lh. Titles will cease to be unmarketable from the owners not being able to produce or secure the fu ture production of the title deeds. 10th. Equitable and secondary estates will be come marketable. Ilth. The danger both to purehacete mid s ell e rs of entering into contracts without previous minute acquaintance with the tide will be materially dimi- niAlied, 12th. Both the delay and expense unending the investigation of titles previous to the completion of contracts will be materially diminished; abstracts will be shortened; there will be no tracing of colla teral titles; no search after documents; no expense in procuring their production. These are now the chief causes of delay and expense in the transfer of real property. 13th. The expenses attending conveyance will be materially ditnimshed; deeds will be shortened and they will be lessened in number ' such deeds At al. eignments of satisfied terms, and covenants for pro duction of title-deeds will become unnecessary ; copies of deeds will be required to much less extent, and when required, will be furnished eta eheaper rate. 14th, Many causer of litigation es to tines, and as to the performance of connects, ausi as to the possession and the production of deeds, end Aft to the necessary deeds of conveyance end the partici* to them, will be avoided.
