B LAIR'S GOUT AND RHEUMATIC PILLS. Copy of a Letter from the Chevalier De la Garde, Chamberlain to Stanislaus, late King of Poland, (To Mr. Prout, 229, Strand, London.) No. 20 Vere-street. Dec. 11, PM _ SIR,-1 feel myself bound by the duty I owe to my fellow-creatures to request that you will publish the following most extraor dinary effects of Blair's Gout and Rheumatic Pills. For a period of 30 years I have suffered more than I can well exprrss, but at all times have avoided taking advertised remedies, having a power ful antipathy to them, until a few months since, after having been laid up for 22 weeks of an attack of Rheumatic Gout, principally confined to the feet, but at times it travelled to various parts of the frame, and then returning airain with accumulated force to the extre mities, and to such a degree that I was delirious for five days and nights. I now say that, fortunately I was induced to try Blair's Gout and Rheumatic Pills ; and, with truth, I assure yourself and the pub lic that, in less than 24 hours, I was free from pain; and by the time 1 had taken half a box, the infiamation and swelling had disappeared. I have the pleasure of adding that my general health has in no way suiltred, and that the effects of Blair's Pills were imperceptible. I am, Sir, your obedient servant, THE CHEVALIER DE LA GARDE. The testimonials of the astonishing effects of this Medicine are universally accompanied by the fact, that no inconvenience of any s rt attends its administration, but that the patient, without feeling the operation of the medicine, is universally lett in a stronger and better state of health than experienced previous to being afflicted with this disease; and in all cases of acute sulibring, great relief is obtained in afew hours, and a cure is generally effected in two or three days.

SEVEN o'CLocK.—This evening Samuel Long, a har ness maker in the employ of the great Tory carriers, Messrs. Swann and Sons, was arrested on a warrant charging him with corrupting a voter , of the name of George Smith, by giving him nine sovereigns to vote for Mr. Manners Sutton. The complaint on which the war rant issued was made by Richard Foster, Esq., the Chair man of Mr. Gibson's Committee, before the Reverend Professor Hensbow, a borough Magistrate. Long will be brought up to morrow for examination. The case against him is exceedingly strong, and several papers have been found in his possession which disclose a most extensive system of corruption on the part of the Tories, and will, it is believed, lead to results of a highly important character. It need hardly be said that the intelli g ence has excited an immense sensation i n the town. The Tories are frightened beyond measure, and well they may be, as it is well known other warrants are about to be obtained. BRISTOL SUGAR MARKET, AUG. 30. Our sugar-market remains very arm, although it is so much above London that we believe we may say every house in the trade has been driven there to buy. Notwith. standing this extra demand upon London, the relative state of the stocks, to which we have repeatedly drawn attention, is beginning to affect prices, and sales are very languid. The stock on hand, which last week was 5,186 hhds. less than last year, is this week only 1,780 less, whilst there is a surplus in Mauritius of 29,300 mats, and of Bengals 31,940 bags, and the average price 10s. per cwt. higher. As compared with 1837 the stock on hand is greater by 12,700 hhds. and 47,400 mats, besides the immense quantity of Bengals, and the average price 6s. 6d. per cwt. higher ! This paradoxical state of things is at variance with all former experience, and we naturally ask —how long can it last? We are glad to be able to notice that the accounts from the West Indies are, generally, much more satisfactory.—Bristol Mercury. HORRIBLE MURDER. —A most cruel murder has been perpetrated by a party of Irishmen working at the Spon-lane Works, West Bromwich, on the body of an inoffensive and respectable mate. It appears that there are two beer-shops in Spo n-lane, into one of which the Irishmen have issued an o rder that no one shall enter Spon-lane, ur t oo k a friendose of gi v i ng hi m a under fear of their resentment. On. Saturday n i g h t a highly respectable man, na med Thomas B arrett, in the employ the o i f n M te e rd ss ic rs te . glass of ale; they stayed talking there f or some time, and on leaving to go home a party of abo ut 40 Irishmen met them and attacked them with re lentless f ury. Poor Barrett was soon killed, and the monsters then beat his friend until dChboaunsece f,or of the p he became insensible, when they left him a supposed corpse beside the dead body of Barrett. On the Irishmen retreat ing the wounded man was removed to a place of safety, but no hopes are entertained of his surviving. A s many as 20 of the gang have been apprehended as being connected with the murder, and a coroner's jury has been summoned to inquire into the foul deed. Since the perpetration of this diabolical outrage the Englishmen in Messrs. Chance's employ have refused to continue in their employ unless the Irishmen in the works are immediately discharged.— Stafford Examiner.

Deposit 1/. per Share. The erection of the works of this Company having been com menced, the Directors adopt this mode of apprising Hotel and Tavern-keepers, Licensed Victuallers, and consumers of Flint glass in general, in London and its environs, that they have ap portioned a certain number of Shares exclusively to them ' • and therefore, in order to secure the advantages to be derived, it is desirable that an early application be made. The holders of one or more Shares will have any quantity of glass supplied full 15 per cent, cheaper than it can be purchased from a retailer or hawker; besides which, they will receive an annual dividend upon the amount of their capital invested of more than fifteen per cent. The manufacture of Flint Glass has hitherto been carried on in London only to a very limited extent, the supply being prin cipally from the North of England. This Company is formed not only to give consumers a cheaper article, but to encourage the production of Glass in the immediate neighbourhood of its consumption ; and as all the materials required for its manufac ture can be obtained at lower prices in the London Market, this (combined with the immense saving of package, freight, breakage, &c. Etc. when brought from the North), will much more than compensate for the extra price of coals and labour; it is therefore:evident that this most important article can be produced cheaper to consumers-on the-spot, than when brought from so great a distance. . The site of ground selected for the'Manufat;tory is most eli gibly situate, being immediately on 'the banks of the river Lea, at Bromley i near -bow, and has been obtained upon very advan tageous terms to the Company.

TO THE INDEPENDENT ELECTORS OF THE BOROUGH OF MANCHESTER.' GENTLEMEN, As one of the oldest and most persevering supporters of the Freedom of Trade in general, and opponents of the Corn-laws in particular, I feel that there can be no impropriety in proffer ing myself for the honour of representing your Borough in Parliament. After having laboured assiduously, both while in Parliament md out of it, to give the greatest publicity to ail the opinions I , sa ve professed, it would be in some degree superfluous for me to trouble you with them in detail, or do more than declare my readiness to explain my views on every public question that may be proposed to me. On one point the actual circumstances of the country induce rue to enlarge. Sharing as I do, to an almost unlimited ex tent, in the opinions of the most numerous classes on the neces sity of some great reform in their relative position, no man can substantiate against me that I have maintained any doctrine un friendly to the general ord. r of society, or failed to insist on the possibility of combining all interests in a common justice which should unite the rich and poor in one bond of mutua goad will At the recommendation of my friends, I lose no time in pledg ing myself to 7o to the poll. I have the honour to be, Gentlemen, your obedient servant, T. PERRONET, THOMPSON York Hotel, Aug. 30, 1839. TO THE IN DEPENDENT ELECTORS OF THE BOROUGH OF MANCHESTER. GENTLEMEN, My Address yesterday was manifestly written under circum stances which excuse my appealing to you again upon points not then within my knowledge. The Address of the Corrunittee in Brown-street impresses on you the importance of your ; repreSelatative being " prac-, tically as well as theoretically!! aequeinted witlilhose commer cial and manufacturing pur su it s on wh s ch the prosperity of the industrious community depend s . Seeing in this something like_ an a ll us i on to the possibility i of my citing your suffrages, I take the liberty of engaging a friendly contest on the conclusion intended to be derived. • The commercial and manufacturing interests hare a hundred men in-the House of Commons, capable of giving the most enoneette,.inforreetion-cea every practical que.l-1011, from the state of foreign markets present or in expectation, to the smallest pin that makes part of one of your machines. It was not here that 'they wanted strength at all. But they had not many who . for fit , een years had battled inces santly, in season and out of season, in, print and by word of mouth, in our own country and abroad, to support that leading principle of universal freedom of trade, which is in reality the turning• point about which all our efforts, to be effectual, must be combined. There is no use in speaking slightingly of this as " theory." Theory is opinion ; and opinion is what moves the world. The practical men would have gene on for ever and for ever, hearing themselves talked out of their wealth 'and their workmen out of their bread, if the despised thing called " theory" had not stepped in to show the sources of their wrong, and rally the masses to the defence. If the question was of adding the hundred-and-first theorist t o half-a-dozen practical manufacturers in the House of Commons, the case would be different. But as the facts stand, I submit impas sionately, not to the constituency of Manchester alone, but to that greater constituency formed by the interested in 'ree Trade throughout the wet Id, whether by refusing to give the sanction of your suffrag es to one successful defender of the general principle, you do not do more for your enemies to rejoice at, than would be balanced by the introduction of any conceivable quantity of practical knowledge that can at this moment be lacking in the House of Commons. Believe me, Gentlemen, there are three or four sentences of what you slight as theory, which if they could once be fairly fought into that House, as your friends in the Ministry could have dune, and did not, would do more good to you and yours, and collect more of popular and ultimately effective support about your cause, than any quantity of practical knowledge that is wanting for success. It is not practical knowledge there is any dearth of. Your enemies fear it not; they fear the man who will frame the knowledge •of principles into small pills for the general throet, and mix It np with the other elements of popular ag,itation and succeis.

On Saturday Mr. WM. Potter, pawnbroker, of Brentford, appeared before the Rev. Dr. Walmesley and George Baillie, Esq., the sitting Magistrates to answer a summons under the New Polic e A ct, at the suit of Inspector Marquard, of the T division, for having on Saturday, the 24th ult., being within the Metropolitan Police district, received in pledge a certain chattel from one William Carter, a person apparently under the age of 16 years, whereby be had incurred a penalty not ex ceeding 51. Mr. Potter, on being called on to plead, said, to save the time of the Bench, be would at once plead guilty to the charge. Ile, at the time of taking in the articles from the boy in question, was not aware that such an Act was in existence. He had no opportunity of know ing it but from the public prints, and he bad brought with him the Weekly Dispatch and the Britannia, two papers which be took in, to convince the Bench that they made no mention of any such an enactment having passed. William Carter, a boy to all appearance about eleven or twelve years of age, was then called in, and the Bench said it was impossible the defendant could have considered him to be above sixteen years of age. As it was they believed the first case of the kind that had been brought forward under the Act, they would miti gate the penalty to 40s ~ and they hoped it would not happen again. The defendant said he would take care it should not. He could assure the Bench he bad acted under complete ignorance of the law, the old Act allowing pawnbrokers to take in pledges from children above twelve years of age. Mr. BATLLTE then admonished the boy William Car ter, who it app eare d h a d on M on d ay last been brought before that Magistrate on a charge of having on several occasions robbed his parents, when it was discovered he had pledged the articles at Mr. Potter's, on which the Bench directed the Inspector to lay the information. The boy was then discharged, and the p iwchroker was directed to give up the property to Carter's father, which he did. The Magistrates were occupied for nearly three hours in hearing and disposing of a great number of sum monses against poor inhabitants of the parish of Ealing, for arrears of poor-rates. It appears that most of the houses in question are of the smallest possible descrip tion, some of them consistieg of only one room. They have never before been rated until the passing of the General Assessment Act, under the provisions of which they have been assessed by the Surveyor sent down by the Poor Law Commissioners. Most of the sums claimed varied from 2s. to Bs., for houses rated under 101. per annum ; and it was stated by Mr. Allen, the Assistant Overseer and Collector, that the owners of those houses having refused to come into a composition of two•thircls of the rate, as other owners had done, he bad no alternative but to try to drive them to that by summoning the tenants. The defendants, one and all, pleaded their inability to pay, many of them being but day, labourers, with large families to support k while nearly the majority declared that when: they . took the tenements in question. they were not rated, and. the landlords 'promiied, should they be rated, to see to it. They were each ordered (to the regret of' the bench,. who:said they had no alternative) to pay th e respect i ve amounts w ithin a fortnight, with the addition, in each case of 25 5 -4 d: for:&meg. POLICE INTELLIGENCE, .• .1,, MAN SION-W OUSE. CHARGE OF ATTEMPTING, TO PROVOKE TO FIGHT. Mr. John .41e.randitr. Wilmott and Mr. William Montague, were brought before the Lord Mayor by Dar.iel Forrester, the officer, charged with having at tempted to. provoke Mr. William Nash Round, of the office of Woods and Forests, and Mr. Thomas Prier, of Austen. Friars, solicitor to Mr. Round, to fight with pistols. A lady of very fashionable appearance, who called her se lf M rs . Wil mott, accompanied the defen dants, and remained in the justice room during the in vestigation. M r . R oun d state d t h at he lived at No. 1, Surrey-place, Lower Kent-road, and that he was a clerk in the office of Woods and Forests. On Wed nesday fortnight Mr. Montague called upon him and accused him of having used certain expressions, which he had never used, regarding Mr. and Mrs. Willman, in fact, of baying called Mrs. Wilmott a --. Mr. Montague called upon him to retract the expression, apologize, or name a friend to whom he might refer. He (Mr. Round) referred him to Mr. Prier) and told ,him that he never had made use of such an expression. The Loan MAYOR—Did he challenge you? Mr. Round.,—N o; but he gave me, after a great deal of words pro ailfl con, to understand that that was his business with" rue. I considered that he came with a hostile intention. lie called again next morning, and said that he understood from Mr. Josiah Rolls that Mr. Prier was a professional man, and, therefore, not fit to be referred to on such an occasion, and I said that 1 would name no other. Mr. Montague—As I was not a professional man I wished the matter to be cleared up in a gentlemanly way. Mr. Wontner, the solicitor who attended for the de fendants, here interposed, and said that.his clients had acted under a mistaken impression, and had no idea of acting with violence. Mr. Round—l used no such expression as that attri buted to me. The LORD MA vox—What does Mr. Prier say? He stated here that Mr. Montague directly challenged him to fight. Mr. Wontner—lt is all a misconception. • Mr. Wilmott—l have not the slightest malice to wards either of the gentlemen, for till now I never saw them, nor ever thought there were such persons in ex istence. Mr. Round—l believe, from what was said, that they were urged on to act in this manner. I believe the matter began from another source. Mr. Wilmott—Yes ; you'll find that it arose from an arbitration which was referred. Mr. Round—l have no doubt at all that it was Mr. Rolls, the floorcloth manufacturer, who urged them on, and that he made the representation to them upon which they acted. Mr. Prier stated that Mr. Montague called at his office, and said that. Mr. Josiah Rolls had told him that Mr. Round had used defamatory language towards Mr. and Mrs. Wilmott. He (Mr. Prier) observed that Mr. Round had, at Farningham races cautioned Mr. Rolls against being seen in such company,if Mr. Wilmott was the person who bad been described to him, and that the caution was meant with a friendly intention. Mr. Mon tague persevered in requiring that Mr. Round should retract what he had stated ; and witness expostulated, and asked whether Mr.Wilmott was not the person who had been tried for bigamy, to which Mr. Montague re plied in the affirmative. Mr. Montague—l never did. Mr. Prier declared that Mr. Montague admitted the fact, and also admitted that Mr. Wilmott was the John Alexander Wilmott who had figured in the Weekly Dispatch newspaper, and that Mrs. Wilmott was the lady who was married in Hanover-square. He (Mr. Prier) then said that Mr. Round certainly would not meet Mr. Wilmott, and Mr. Montague said—" There is no stain upon my name, although there may upon Mr. Wilmott's, and he must meet me." Mr. Montague—lt was in defence of the lady, I wish it. to be understood. I came forward. Mr. Prier said, he mentioned that it was odd that Mr. Montogue should, after admitting the stain upon Mr. Wilmott's name, show a disposition to represent him in a hostile way. Mrs. Wilmott here rose and said, that she had in her possession a letter from Mr. Rolls, denying the correct ness of the statement made by the complainants as to what took place with respect to Farningham Races. Mr. Prier said, that he afterwards heard from Mr. Round that unless he (Mr. Round) consented to fight he would be horsewhipped. If it had not been for the threat, no more notice would have been taken of the oc currence. It had been explained that no personal hos tility existed, and all that Mr. Round and he (Mr. Prier) required was security that they might go about in safety. The Lord MAYOR—WiII you be satisfied with their own security ? Mr. Prier—l would much rather have other security. Mr. Wontner said, that the defendants had no idea of using violence, and observed that as they were taken by surprise it would be inconvenient to procure security at the moment. Mr. Wilmott said, that he and Mr. Montague had been about the town for a fortnight, and might, if they contemplated violence, have carried it into effect long since, as they knew Mr. Round's address. The Loan MAYOR—You might have known Mr. Round's address, but he did not know where you were to be found. Mr. Prier—l have heard that Mr. Mon tague killed a person in a duel at Calais, and I think it to be rather disagreeable to go about in the apprehen sion of being shot.—(A laugh.) The Loan MAYOR-1 shall require bail, two sureties of 50/. each, and the defendants themselves in WO/. each, to keep the peace. They m i g h t cons id er that moderate, as sureties to the amount of 5001. were ge nerally required.—The defendants declared that they bad not the least idea of committing violence. Mrs. Wihnott then offered to be security for the de fendants. Mr. HOLLER asked Mrs. Wilmott whether she was PRICE 5d , a single lady and a housekeeper ? Mrs, Wilmott re plied that she was. Mr. Prier declared that she was the lady who mar ried Mr. Wilmott at Hanover-square. He had a copy • of the license. There was present a gentleman from Mr. Harmer's office who could swear to the fact. She had married John Alexander Wilmott. Mrs. Wilmott —My husband's name was John Napo!con Wilmott lam qualified to bail these gentlemen. I have 2,0001. a year. . Mr. Wontner submitted th it the lady's bail was suf ficient, a proposition in which the Lord Mayor was dis posed to concur, but Mr. Hobler expressed an opinion that it would be advisable to have other security. Bail, which was approved of by Mr. Prier, was then procured, and the defendants were discharged. A CONSCIENTIOUS ENEMY TO TEETOTALISM.— Mr . Gibby, the owner of a public-house, to which he is himself a most liberal customer, was brought before the Lord Mayor, for having kicked up a row because his ear was bitten off by a tremendous Newfoundland dog. The dog also appeared in the justice-roo m with a fine little boy on his back. The publican, it was stated, having determined to yield obedictice to the new law affecting the oppressed body of which lie is a member, kept his house closed from Saturday night till one o'clock on. tunday, but thi n ki ng t h at i t would be wrong to break t . . suddenly throu g h th e goo d old custom of servingtinit a prohibited time, sat down and gave himsTotiOy up to "blue rui n an d backy." Being the abit of larking when lumpy, Mr. Gibby fixed his eye& upon a brother publican's dog as a fit subject for a little fun, and going up to him, began to shake him by the jowl. The animal patiently bore the insult for some time, but Mr. Gibby, calculating too much upon his forbearance, shook him with greater violence, when the dog, without any more ceremony, shoved a couple of his teeth into the ear of.his - torments, left it dangling from the head, and then again quietly lay dcwi-n to repose on the paVeruent. It would be supposed that such a salutation would.Ond the interview, but there is no knoWing the extent of the operation of a wise law made to put a fatal termination to publicans and to dogs. Mr. Gibby's anger at losing his ear was aggra vated by the recollection of the clause of the New Act. and he attacked the dog; the dog, on the other hand, no doubt having before his eyes the clause which is to put an cad to his career, attacked the publican, and the police, armed with their new authority, took the tv.o transgressors into custody. The LORD MAYOR (to the publican, whose head was tied up)—You unfortunate man, I am sorry to see that you have been punished so severely. You have lost your ear entirely, I suppose ? Mr. Gibby—No, my Lord, I think it will grow again.---(A laugh.) The LORD MAYOR—Grow again! You mean that it was not entirely separat e d, an d will, probably, re unite'? Mr. Gibby—Yes, my Lord. The doctor fixed it on again, and stitched it to my head with a needle and thread. I dare say it will be all right if he didn't put it upside down. _ _ The owner of the dog said that a quieter character than the dog did not breathe, and that he must have been pulled about most unmercifully before he retali ated. The animal was completely under the dominion of the child upon his back. - A person who knew Mr. Gibby said it was true the, dog had been roughly treated. He (witnessllookeci on, and he was struck with one peculiarity. The dog did not at all seem to like the mouthful he had got, ,but dropped it with apparent distaste. Witness was in the habit of stopping to draw inferences from the conduct of the brute creation, and the conehision he Came to was, that as the publican was in the habit of drinking a great deal the ear had a disagreeable flavour from being too near the mouth.—(Laughter.) The. LORD MAYOR thought it must be a consolation to the publican that he was not a teetotaller, for if the dog happened to relish the ear he might not have left off till he bad made a hearty meal.—(Laughter.) You shall go without being fined notwithstanding the Act, for you are , bitterly punished, added his Lordship, but I beseech you to avoid excess. Mr. Libby said it was evident that he was not drunk, for he had a stand-up fight with the dog, and never was undermost in the conflict. He thanked his Lordship, but he knew that if he turned teetotaller he never should be able to fight with man or dog again.— (A lau2h.) The poor dog fighter then retired. A claimant for the dog afterwards appeared, and stated that he had lost the animal in July last ; but In spector Brake having in the round of his duties, ob served that the little nephew of Mr. Marshall, who stated that he purchased the dog, was‘constaetly riding him for the last three mouths ; the claim .was negatived by Ins Lordship. BQW-STREET THE NEW METROPOLIS POLICE ACT.-Mr. Burke the landlord of the Garrick's Head Tavern, in Bow street, appeared before Mr. MINSHULL, the presiding Magistrate to answer the complaint of Musgrove, an iespeetor of the F division of police, who charged him with keeping open his house before the hour of one o'clock at noon on Sunday last, fur the sale of spirits, &c., and for other purposes than for the refreshment of travellers, contrary to the provisions of the new Metro polis Police Act. Mr. VIRGO, a solicitor, appeared on behalf of the de fenclut, and the office was crowded with persons in terested in the complaint, several of whom were also summoned for similar alleged offences. The offence alleged against Mr. Burke was proved by Muegrove the inspector, who etated, that on Sun day morning at half-past two o'clock he went into the house of the defendatjt, and he found there fifteen per sons, drinking, singing, and smoking. Mr. VIRGO admitted that this evidence must be considered sufficient to warrant the Magistrate in con victing the defendant, provided he should think that the terms of the Act met the case now before him. The statute provided that no licensed victualler should open his house before the hour of one o'clock for the sale of spirits, &e., on Sundays, Christmas-days, or other holi days, except for the refreshment of travellers. Here there was no fresh opening of the house, which had not been closed ; and ho contended that the Act, hi its direct terms, constituted the offence to be a new open ing of the house, and not a continuation of that open ing which had already commenced before the Sunday. The statute was penal, and must be construed strictly. Mr. Mit;snum. had no hesitation in saying that the case proved was clearly within the meaning of the Act. The object of the Legislature was clear, and it was his duty to endeavour to secure it. Mr. VIRGO suggested that the decision which was now come to would very probably be that which would govern future cases, and that the Magistrate, therefore, if he had any doubt upon the subject, should postpone his judgment until the defendant should have obtained the assistance of counsel. Mr. MiNstium. saw no difficulty in the case. The terms of the statute, its will as the object of its provi sions, were too clear to admit of any doubt, and he must inflict the full penalty of 5/. Mr. VIRGO pointed out that this was the first case under the new law, and hoped that the penalty would not be fixed at so high a sum. He pointed nut that there was no appeal against the decision of the Ma gistrates. Mr. MINSHULL regretted with Mr. Virgo that there was no appeal from his judgment, and thought that the introduction of a provision into the Act to give the par ties the benefit of the judgment of a higher Court would have been exceedingly advantageous. He felt, how ever, that it was his duty to carry out the law with vigour, and that, as there was no suggestion of poverty on the part of the defendant, the infliction of the full penalty was only proper. Mr. Rhodes, of the Cider Cellars, in Maiden-lane, who was also summoned, complained that the law ope rated very hardly upon those houses which were re spectably conducted. He had received no notice from the police, like his neighbours, of the intention to en force the Statute, and he had, therefore, conceived that he was to be exempted from its operation. He begged to inquire how he should act in the event of any persons being in his house, at the hour at which he was re quired to shut up, who had not finished the liquor with which they had been previously served ? Mr. MINSHULL said that he could not answer a sup positious case ; but that his advice would be that all customers should quit Mr. Rhodes' house before Sunday commenced. With regard to the notice, none was ne cessary ; and he could not but say that he was glad tha t the police had attacked the strong.

Mr. HALL said he never heard of a thief so young who had comm itted the robberies f or w hi ch he was to answer at the Old Bailey, in so systematic a manner. They were, it had been proved, perpetrated on the same day, and within twenty-four hours afterwards, the arti cles stolen were in the hands of pawnbrokers, He in quired whether he had parents. The mother, with tears i n her eyes, here stepped up to the bench, and stated that as soon as the prisoner knew how to walk and talk, he began to commit the most serious offences, and all the exertions of herself, of her husband, and other Z / G.o' (''' ' / 0 _ _......- EVENING EDITION relatives, to convince him of the error of his wets, and t,' • • : - c ..- / lead him to the right path, were laughed at and treated - ' - - / \ ? ,, ,w.r... .... . ~. 1 , j ~, i v with contempt.

When they flattered them selves that he was reclaimed, they placed him under the care of a very respectable tradesman named Matthews, at Stepney ; but scarcely had two months expired be fore he decamped with a quantity of jewellery and wearing apparel. He next stole a watch and some plate at the house of Mr. Jackson in Brunswick-square,' and shortly afterwards a piece of India handkerchiefs from a distant relative, in whose house he sought shel ter on one inclement night. This was eight months ago and from that time until his apprehension by police con stable Bradley, 165 G, a few days ago, he had not Leen heird of by his friends. The four offences for which he is to be tried, were committed no longe r back than last week, the other persons whom he has plundtred having refrained from) r osecuting him on account alibis youth. —Mr. Hall commisserated very much with the pa rents, and told them that their son might yet become a useful member of society, as it was very probable that if a conviction takes place he will be sent to an institu tion for juvenile convicts in the Isle of Wight and learn a trade. LAMBETH-STREET. On Saturday Wm. George Cole, the proprietor of several omnibuses plying to and from the Mile-end gate, was charged before Mr. Combo, with committing a most violent assault upon the person of Thomas Hor soy, the conductor of a Bow buss. The complainant stated that between the hours of three and four o'clock in the afternoon of Monday last, • he passed throu g h th e en d o f Mil e - en d ga t e , b e hi n d Mr. Giles's Bow omnibus, on his way to town, and ju i l as he went by, th e d e f en d ant d re W hi s b uss f rom off t waste ground near th e Bli n d B eggar , an d ga ll ope d after him. On approaching close to him, the defendant, who appeared in a great rage, exclaimed, " I'll learn you to come in my time, I'll break your b—y legs for -you ;" And at the same time drove his horses so close to him, that it was with some difficulty he could protect himself from being seriously inju re d, an d th e pane l s o f hi s omni bus from being_ driven in. On reaching Whitechapel ehureh, the heads of the defendant's horses were so close to the door of his buss, that he was compelled to get down and push them away before he could let a passen ger out, and on his doing this the defendant lashed him with his whip in the most violent manner, and made a desperate effort to drive over him. Mr. Burnell, a county Magistrate, nnd Chairman of the Licensing Board for the Tower Hamlets district, said he was in the omnibus of which the complainant was conductor, and witnessed the greater part of the transaction. For some distance the pole of the defend ant's omnibus was• so close to the %chicle in which Mr. Burnell was, that. it appeared to him surprising the defendant could protect himself from injury. At length the complainant found it necessary to get down, and got the horses by the head to prevent mischief ; and,in do ing this, the defendant not only lashed him several times with his whip, but used the same instrument in a most merciless manner on his horses, with the view, as it appeared to him, of running over the conductor. - Mr. Burnell, in conclusion, said, that such was the feeling of the gross misconduct of the defendant at the time, that he gave the - complainant his name, and he told him he would attend-it this office as a witness if he took out a warrant, as he ought to do, against the defendant. Mr. Hoyle, a respectable tradesman, at Bow, who was also in the omnibus of th© complainant at the time, corroborated the statement of Mr. Burnell, and further said, that while the defendant ,was using his whip on the complainant's back and shoulders, he ran his vehicle against a light cart, in which there were two respectable females, and was as near upettintit as possible ; such, however, was the effect; of thegshabk, that the wheel of the vehicle came off, and both ladies were thrown out. The defendant, , in reply to the charge, said the com plainant had first kicked his Ileums on - the head, and challenged him to get'off his box to fight, before be struck him. Both Mr. - Burnell and Mr. Hoyle denied these as sertions, and said the complainant's behaviour was marked with great propriety and forbearance. Mr. COMBE said. that in this case he would send the defendant to the House of Correction for a month, as the Act of Parliament gave him the option to do so, or inflict a penalty. 1 . Mr. Haydon, Secretary to-the Society of Omnibus Proprietors, here came forward, and said that the de fendant was a young man of considerable property, and had lately embarked upwards of 4,0001. in the omnibus trade, and he (Mr. Haydon) was perfectly astonished on hearing the charge, as he had known Mr. Cole for some time, and a more peaceable or better conducted )(mug man he was net acquainted with. Mr. ComiE observed that the case was one which, at least, called for the highest penalty, and convicted the defendant in the sum of 51. or two months'imprison ment. THE,USE or THE KNIFE AGAlN.—James ihrkelts, labourer in the docks, was charged with violently as saulting and attempting to stab Charles Whiney, an ostler at the Cape of Good Hope public-house, in Lime house, on the evening before. From the statement of the complainant it appeared that the prisoner was making a disturbance at the house in question on the evening before, and on the complain ant attempting to remove him from the house, he drew out a knife and struck at him with it several times, but he defended himself so well that the prisoner only suc ceeded in giving him a slight scar on the chin. In the struggle, however, the right arm of the complainant was severely hurt, and lie received other injuries. The prisoner, who made a rambling defence, was ccnvicted in the penalty of 3/. or six weeks' imprisonment. TO BUILDERS.

Wi/Liam Thomas, a well-dressed young man was charged with stealing a silk scarf from Ann Cooper, a little girl six years of age. It appeared that the child, in walking along Bermond sey-street to go to school, was met by the prisoner, who, seeing that she was alone, induced her to accompany him to an unfrequented place, on the promise of pur chasing some fruit for her. When, however, he got her there, be immediately pulled the shawl off her shoulders, and ran away, leaving the child in the passage of an old house. He then proceeded to a pawnbroker's shop and offered the shawl for sale, saying that he was sent by his parents, and adding, that his f'mily being in want of money, were cotinelled to make away with their clothes. Information of the robbery baring been given to the police, the prisoner was shortly afterwards taken into custody, and on the way to the station-Louse he told the constable that he was guilty of the offence, and added that he could not tell what could have induced him to rob so young a child, and that it was not from want he did it, as he had got a good home, and wanted for nothing He, however, contrived to dispose of the shawl, and now refused to give a ny information as to where it was to be found. Mr. TRAIL—What have you to say in answer to the charge made ? Prisoner—All I know about it is, that I was possessed of an evil spirit when I took the shawl from the little girl. Mr. TRAIL—But you ought to have resisted the evil spirit, as you call it, and not have robbed the child. This, however, is no excuse for your having committed such an offence, and you must make a jury believe your statement if you can. The prisoner reiterated that he had not got rid of the evil spirit yet, and added that he was in hopes that when in gaol it would leave him altogether. The Magistrate then committed the prisoner for trial. Henry Dorset, a butcher, in the New-cut, was charged with blacking the face of Thomas Baptist, a shoemaker, in Redcross-street, Southwark, and covering his head all over with plaster of Paris. The shoemaker was compelled to have his hair cut off, owing to the adhe sive qualities of the article thrown upon his head, and being cropped close, besides having a fiery red car buncled nose, he cut a most ludicrous figure. He stated that be bad been having a glass of gin and water at the British Lion, and that he afterwards went into a blacksmith's shop, where the defendant and several otker persons were collected at the time. He (complainant) did nothing to offend any one, when the defendant, by way of a practical joke, commenced blackening his face all over with a composition of lampblack and grease, and afterwards thre w a q uantit y of plaster of Paris over his head, which stuck to his hair like birdlime, and al though his wife scrubbed it with hot water and soap, yet she did not succeed in getting it off, and he was there fore compelled to ha ,n s t ' i e le:ei ai tt l iiline hi s hair cut off.
