She was going to live with a soldier, and had partly furnished a lodging with the proceeds of this robbery, She had followed the soldiers to Winchester, and had been sent back by a subscrip tion of some ladies, and her character was anything but I respectable. Mr. O'Brien wished to know if any inquiry had been made as to the character of Simmons or Miss Deane as to morality ? Mr. Witham said almost every one knew that Sim mons's character was bad ; Miss Deane's certainly was not good, but that was no excuse for their servants to rob them. The sentence on the prisoner was, that she be kept to hard labour for 12 calender months. • - - - LONDON, WEDNESDAY EVENING, AUGUST 24, 1853.

BIOGRAPHICAL SKETCH of JAMES 15/ORISON, the Hygeist, with the reasons that led him to the discovery of the Hygetan System of Medicine and the Vegetable Universal Medicine ( Morbon's Pills), after thirty-five years of inexpressible suffering under the medical faculty :—" James Morison, the youngest son of Alexander Mori son, Esq., was born at Bognie, in the county of Aberdeen, in the year 1770. The family has been long known as one of great a filu ence and respectability, and the subject of this brief sketch was the second brother of John Morison, late member for Banffshire. In early life he studied at the University of Aberdeen, and after wards at Hanau, in Germany, being intended for the mercan tile profession. After finishing his studies, he resided at Riga, as a merchant, and subsequently in the West Indies, where he acquired considerable West India property. Having suffered much from ill health, he was obliged to leave that country and pro ceed to Europe, seeking from change of clime a restoration to health. h e cannot do better than describe the foll'wing interesting particulars given by himself in the Morisoniana :—" A thirty-five years' inexpressible suffering, both of body and mind, is an event too. which falls but to the lot of few, if of any at all. Had it pleased God to have called me out of this world eight years ago, I should have died as another man, and been forgotten, and the world could have reaped no benefit from my case and misfortunes nor from the favourable effects produced by the same means on my children. This is a guarantee to the world not often to be met with, and a convincing proof of the motto prefixed to this advice, that ` Health and old age are within the reach of us all.'

SAMUEL LA'MERT, 37, BEDFORD-SQUARE, LONDON Doctor of Medicine, and Matriculated Member of the University e Edinburgh, Honorary Member of the London Hospital Medical Society, Licentiate of Apothecaries' Hall, London, &c., &c. MAY be consulted, personally, or by letter, on the various disorders of the nervous and generative system, resulting from juvenile Irregularities and excesses, which have pro duced more misery in youth, degradation in manhood, and prema ture decay at all stages of life, than perhaps any other class of dis eases known to modern pathologists.

We don't' the ship of fools call a man a fool who, having a good broad back, loins well packed with • new, brawny arms the hide of a rhinoceros, and si more than all, the heart of a lion, cannot keep thin noble machine in proper condition on 10s. a week, up .sixty one week, and intermitted the next ; and therefore hies off can to the diggins. If in England he d onothing better than ply the pick or the . spade, or perhaps on carrying 501 b. of . . brim xtyrounds of f‘adder, from 6 in the mOrniag to d • in the evening, and all for 2s. a-day, which will barely keep him self, not to speak of wife and child, he is no fool for going where sinew and bone a man stand in more stead. No, he is the man for Australia. He is the true lord of the golden soil. England, with its parish allowances, its workhouses, its stone-yards, water gruel, and Mr. Chadwick , • ls no place for him. In Australia he is a moving mine of wealth, a living nugget of gold, a rich vein of auriferous quartz, a real crushing machine. L e t him go, and he will find his place. Only let him beware of strong drink, whether for thirst or for prid e . L et hi m eschew evil company, and keep the middle of the road as he walks through the streets of Melbourne after nightfall. Above all, let him not be too fond of showing his belt round his body, and his nugget of sixty ounces in his breeches pocket. With these and a few other cautions the Briton, be he Saxon or Celt, may pick up enough in a few years to pur chase a farm or open a shop in his own country. So also may the carpenter, the blacksmith, the bricklayer, and any other whose labour is manual, and whose craft is of the useful and elementary sort. The stout domestic servant will get on well there. None of these are fools for going to Aus tralia. Who are the fools, then ? Superfluous clerks, redundant fine gentlemen, crack-brained scholars, neer-do-well fellows of all sorts, hypo chondriac milliners, poets with no readers, flunkies with no characters, and individuals of no profession, class, or description whatever. They are fools in England, and they will be still worse fools in Australia. Let us take our modern Argonaut—some clerk or shopman, sick of 501. a-year, threepenny busses, half-price at the Adelphi, frock-coats in the best style at 265. 9d., and general insignificance. Let him beg, borrow, or steal enough to pay for a " select berth" to Melbourne. We will not dwell on the horrors of the middle passage, on drunken doctors, lying-in women, rations of beef consigned to the sharks, water putrid, pas sengers fighting, no lights below, hatchways bat tened down, luggage all at the bottom of the hold, and saturated with sea water as early as the Bay of Biscay, insolent captains, determined roundrobbins, Bass's ale at 2s. 6d. a bottle, and latterly not to be got even at that price. We must pass all that, for it is not our present topic, and we must suppose our young Cockney, in a most venomous state of mind, but, strange to say, in better health than he was ever in before, in the harbour of Port Phillip, as near as his ship will take him to Melbourne. Then comes the tug of war, not between Greek and Greek, but between two very unequal belligerents. The poor fellow longs to laud, if it is only that he may snap his fingers at captain, steward, and cook, and rush to the magistrates with some fifty distinct grievances. So he hails with ecstacy two or three boats approaching the vessel. Having often gone from London-bridge to Westminster very expedi tiously and pleasantly for 2d., he has rather a humble view of river navigation, especially in the craft before him. To his utter disgust, he finds that the charge for taking him and his luggage to Melbourne, or even to land them on the beach almost within a stone's throw, will absorb the whole of his capital, carefully stichedi over night in the lining of his trousers. But his luggage What a world of misery is contained in that word ! The wretched man was persuaded into b • uying an iron house, Oxford-street " cradl es " f or s ifti ng the " dirt," and every thing of the most ponderous description. Having repined all the voyage at the enormous freight he has had to pay for this rubbish, he now discovers that he did not know half the extent to which he has been duped. In the present state of his finances he must leave his iron house on board, at the mercy of his enemy the captain. Waiting his deliverance, he sits down and surveys the scene before him. The beach, which fancy had long strewn with ruddy coral, prime sponges, seaweed of all colours, and shells that would make a broker's fortune, is covered with bones, and with all sorts of inconceivable re fuse, which he begins to smell, even through the bilge water of his own vessel. After some days' impatience a steamer approaches, and,a ruinous charge, he and his more port a bl e goods at are con veyed up the fabulous Yarra. The nearer he ap proaches the garden of the Hesperides the fouler the breath of the dragon that guards it. The river contracts, the paddles stir up the mud, the banks draw nigh, and our friend, who has been dying for ten years to escape the air of Coleman street, sees, hears, smells, and almost tastes and feels, swine devouring the long entrails of slaugh tered cattle, nay, of slaughtered swine, horrid mountains of garbage, shoals of festering bones, piles of raw bides, and abominations too foul to be named, all under a dry, hot, parching sun, that would raise an effluvium out of the very sands of the desert. But this is only a foretaste of what is to follow when our already repentant goldhunter has been dragged in a cart ankle deep in filth from the bed of the Yarra, and deposited, with his long-spoilt baggage, in the dust of the unpaved roadway. Unless it happens to be raining torrents, he sallies forth to learn more of his fate. Wherever he turns lie finds, that if this is a land of gold, he should be shod with gold that treads it. He ventures on a frugal meal at a cookehop, such as in the Strand he would pay a shilling for, with a penny to the waiter. His bill is 12s. He resolves to look next time be fore he leaps, and accordingly asks a multitude of questions, with occasionally a civil answer, espe cially from companions in misery. From these he learns that to take his goods to the diggings would cost him 100/. for carriage. But he has heard of horses running wild on vast plains, and has ima gined himself galloping onwards perpetually with fresh steeds ever at command. Possibly in some such way he may reach the terminus of his hopes. Alas ! any sort of horse costs 200!., a night's stand idg and food 355. ; one shoeing, 40s. ; a pound of hay at the diggings more than twice as much as a pound of the best brown sugar in London ; oats 3/. ss. a bushel, and other things in proportion. He sees that if he cannot walk to the diggings, an d carry all his worldly wealth on his back , he must stay at Melbourne for the present. But there matters are equally unpromising. He sees a shop, such as in London would be found in a third-rate street, and is told that its building cost 20,0001., and that every brick used in the city is computed to cost sd. As to food, he finds himself in the midst of a famine, that is, to one of his scanty means. Pastoral Australia is not a land of milk and honey. The former of these articles is precious as liquid silver. A gentleman, we are told, finds his milk bill equal to his whole annual expenditure a few years ago. The fortunate diggers will not only give any price for what they want, but will use twice as much as what they want in mere bra vado. What is our poor Cockney to do in a state of society in which "navvies" are the million naires ? There is only one consolation. So long as he wears his shabby-genteel London coat, looks hungry and sober, and might be mistaken for a Cambridge wrangler or a country curate, he is safe from molestation. He has no zone of gold, no rich pocket of nuggets, and is not worth murder. As for occupation, he must gradually settle into something that he never expected. Were he a mason, or a carpenter, he could get his Si. a week, with board and lodging. Could he carry 2 cwt. on his shoulders, he might follow with advantage the advice that Samuel Johnson received from the first publisher he applied to. Were he a common labourer he could get his 10s. or 14s. a day ; but he pretends to be a gentleman, wears gloves, a long-tailed coat, and a pretence of clean linen — though washing at 120. a dozen eoon drives him out of that ; so he is glad to get a situation at driving a cart, or watching a store in the absence of the owner, or touting for a ginshop, or anything rather than starve. As for the digging, they are out of the question to all such spoilt mortals as are here described. Few people know how common is the case of the unjust steward, who said to himself, " I cannot dig, to beg I am ashamed ;" for very few, with the degree of refinement supposed in the parable, can dig without excessive fatigue and injury to the constitution. Gardeners, it is commonly said in the country, are not long-lived. The Spad.e, the pick, and the hoe try the muscles of the chest, compel stooping, induce great heats, and render the frame all the more liable to chills. Miners are not a long-lived race, and as for " navvies," who knows how they live—when, or where, or how they die ? They appear when wanted, and disap pear when the railway is opened, like swallows at the approach of winter. These are the nearest approximations to the work of the digger He toils all day under a burning sun, often up to his middle in a mountain stream, or at the bottom of a pit, constantly throwing the earth over his head, or baling out the water. The pit becomes a shaft, sometimes 60 or even 100 feet deep, then comes the work of driving low galleries right through the precious vein, constructing timber sides and props, dragging trays of auriferous earth, pulling it to the top by the windlass, and carrying it in baskets over the head or on the shoulders to the river three miles off. Sometimes these tremendous efforts are rewarded with prizes, , sometimes with blanks, more generally with ague and fever, and not unfrequently with the bullet and the knife. What a reality to wake to after dreams of gold ! Better be roused, not entirely refreshed, but still capable of work, to. hear the chimes of St. Giles's Cripplegate ' call to breakfast and the counter. No. This will never do for the born and bred Londoner. It is a new world, and requires new men. It requires stouter frames and somewhat ruder hands than mere civilisation will prodli ce. among Happily us, an the and y str s s o lia sons of is toilhe country e n s try till abundant for them. STRIKES AND THEIR EFFECTS. (From the Times.) The Kidderminster weavers have returned to their work. They have consented to yield their demand for an increased scale of wages, to work twelve hours a-day, and to receive payment when the work is finished. Thus, then, this " strike" may be considered at an end, if the intelligence forwarded to us should prove to be correct. The wretched victims of the delusion have, however, already paid a heavy penalty for their error—so many days out of work--so large a deduction from their earnings —so . heavy a run upon the little sums accumulated in the savings-banks—so fre quent the visits to the pawnbrokers' shops—so deep the distress of wives and families—so great the loss of confidence and goodwill between employers and employed. For the moment we will only consider the effects of these " strikes" upon the fortunes of the labouring classes, because the injury they inflict upon employers, although grievous enough, is of f ar l ess importance. The money-loss is sustainable in most instances without any very heavy deduction from the opulence and comforts of the wealthy capitalist, but the result to the labourer is in most instances permanent embarrassment. We do not say that this would be a reason for abstaining from a just demand, but it does constitute a very important reason for hesita tion before engaging in a contest which must be fought at such frightful disadvantages. There are, no doubt, exceptional trades ; but we believe that in by far the greater majority of cases a " strike" among mechanics and artificers will lead to one of two results. Either machinery, which will work and not " strike," will be introduced in substitu tion for men, who will " strike" but not work, or strangers will be introduced from distant parts of the country to perform those parts of the under taking which absolutely require the intervention of human hands. We remember well a case in the old days of the bleaching trade, when all the hands in an extensive establishment struck for increased wages. In the course of a week a sufficient number of workmen was introduced from France, and they carried on the works with success, while the mal contents were turned out upon the world to beg gary and starvation. That which was possible , years ago is far more simple now, with our in creased facilities of communication, and we heartily bid our English artificers to be upon their guard, lest, by their own act, they cause foreigners to be brought in over their own heads. Nor can they hope for public sympathy in their distress. Public opinion sympathises quickly enough, and warmly enough, with the real grievances of the labouring classes, but there is about it nothing of a maudlin or irrational charac ter. The public will take the liberty of inquiring on which side lies the fault. If it should be proved that the masters are in reality paying a fair rate of wages, and that the men are but acting in blind obedience to the dictation of a few turbulent ad venturers, there is little doubt that public opinion will do justice between the parties to the dispute. It would be superfluous for us to point out to any rational men that little is to be gained now-a-days by violence and breaches of the peace. Happily we are freed from all further apprehensions of Luddites' and framebreakers. The organisation of the police and military forces of the country, when backed by public opinion, is so complete, that an o verwhelming force could at any given moment be brought to bear upon any point for the suppression of riot and disorder. Such a course has never yet been productive of anything but misery and dis grace to all who entered upon it ; but, at least at the present period of our history, the ruin of their imitators—if any should be found—would be more speedy, if not more complete. The present series of " strikes" has, however, been tarnished by but one actual outrage, and the result of that may be read in our assize intelligence yesterday. It is curious enough to see how readily workmen, who might be supposed from their daily occupation m ln ate o r u ial r w im it p h re w ss h io ic n h o t f hey mt lr d e ay dea w li e na, to understand the money or market value of the a .m s paesrter, contained themselves to be led away by misstatement. a copy of a memorial addressed to the iron published permit masters of the Merthyr district. In this do cument great tr act o i f r o I N n:ae rankt enumber e .,o e ,f ff hi ec l t st that Mr. Robert Crawshay, the son of the ton had above informeda the s ta t e m n workmen " that his father was being offered a con turns out that Mr. Crawshay, • jun., had not only made no such statement, but, in fact, said " that he had heard the price of rails was 9/. a-ton, but he did not believe it." The whole question of the strikes in South Wales turns upon this one point, viz., the price of rails. As evidence of his good faith, Mr. Crawshay has written to Mr. Thomas Stephens, the chairman of the meeting, and offered to supply him, or any customer he may bring, with ' 10,000 tons of rails, to be delivered between now and the 31st of March next, at the rate of 8/. 10s. per ton, Mr. Stephens to be allowed the usual com mission. If Mr. Crawshay be right in his figures —and it would be difficult to give a better proof of his sincerity—the movement among the workmen in South Wales is founded upon error. We sus pect that in very many instances the credulity of the workpeople has been taken advantage of in a similar manner by a few adventurers. If the simple truth were brought home to their minds that their employers are, in point of fact, paying as high a rate of wages as the state of the market will per mit, they would be somewhat slow to court all the evils inseparable from such " strikes." It is credit able to the times in which we live, that in all the declarations from the employers e the employed which have fallen under our notice we have invari ably found the masters pointing to the prices of their commodities in the market as the only crite rion of wages. They endeavour, as in the case of the Manchester dyers, to obta in the services of men who are not affiliated to any of the trades unions ; —they claim, as in the case of Mr. Crawshay and the South Wales ironmasters, to be themselves the judges of the equitable proportion between wages and profits ; but we fin d no trace of any desire to screw the men down to th e lowest point for which human labour can be obtained in the competition for employment always proceeding in an old and over-peopled country. Befere concluding these remarks, we would add a few words of admonition to the employers as well as to the employed. Much depends upon the man ner in which they conduct these painful disputes. Patience should be on the side of intelligence. Ii the masters are in the right, it is quite as easy—as Mr. Crawshay has done—to show the workpeople they are in error, as to turn upon them with threats of instant dismis ers, sal if they do not adopt th e v i ews of their employ be they right or wrong. It is but right that the labouring classes should partici pate in the general prosperity ; it is equally so that they should be made aware of their true position, and not be abandoned to the propagandism of the POLICE INTELLIGENCE. CLE RKENWELL.—THE GOLD DUST ROBBERY. — Mr. David Crackowe, surgeon, of Windsor-terrace, City road, again appeared upon his recognisance before Mr. Corrie, cha rge d w i t h having harboured and assisted his son Aaron Crackowe, who stands convicted and sen tenced to seven years' transportation, for having been concerned in the gold dust robbery on board the Lady Flora, Australian vessel. Mr. Parry, the barrister, instructed by Mr. King at tended for the prosecution ; and Mr. Robinson and Mr. Rumsay for the defence. George Gore, second mate of the Lady Flora, who was brought up in custody, was again sworn, and gave a circumstantial account of his visit to defendant's house, but his evidence was not confirmed by other testimony. Mr. Parry pressed f or a committal. Mr. Robinson contended that there was not sufficient to warrant a remand, and suggested that his client's own recognisances would meet the case on a future day; and, after considerable argument, Mr. Corrie ordered the defendant to put in his own recognisances in 1001. to appear and answer the charge in a week. SOUTHWARK.—A. SECOND CANNoN.—Yesterday Daniel Driscoll, a strong-built, powerful-looking fellow, who is a complete terror to the police in this district, having been several times in custody, and recently suf fered six months: imprisonment for assaults on the police, was brought before Mr. Combe, charged with committing a brutal attack on John Avery, who is unfit for duty in consequence. The prisoner had a severe wound on his head, which, together with his shirt and waistcoat, was covered with blood. The complainant stated, that on Sunday morning, between one and two o'clock, he was on duty in Vine street, Tooley-street, a place inhabited by the most dis orderly description of Irish, when he saw the prisoner making use of bad language in the middle of the street. He told him to go home and not disturb the neighbour hood, when he made use of dreadful threats towards him. Knowing him to be a desperate character he was about to turn away for assistance when the prisoner suddenly struck him two blows, the first of which nearly stunned him, and the second knocked him down insensible. Witness produced a certificate from Mr. Odling, the divisional surgeon, showing that he had several contusions on his legs and body, and was unfit for duty. In answer to Mr. Combe, witness said he neither pro voked the prisoner nor struck him, but merely told him to go home. Sergeant Hart, 26 M, stated that shortly after 1 o'clock on Sunday morning, he was passing Vine-street with another constable in private clothes. He saw the last witness fall down, and the prisoner grasping him by the collar, and beating and kicking him. When they arrived, the complainant was insensible. Witness and the constable who accompanied him seized hold of the prisoner and directed other constables to pick 65 M up, and carry him to the surgeon's. They got the prisoner half way to the station-house, when an im mense mob collected, and endeavoured to rescue him. Within 100 yards of the latter place he believed that some of the constables were compelled to use their trun cheons, but not until then. To secure the prisoner they were obliged to strap his legs, and so violent was he to wards the officers who assisted in securing him, that in self-defence they used their truncheons. Rowe, 110 IVI, said he was with last witness in private clothes at the time mentioned, and on seeing Avery fall he went to his assistance. While doing so, the pri soner's mother came up and seized him by the hair. He, however, got away from her and laid hold of her son, and while he was getting the handcuff s ou t t o secure him, the prisoner kicked him and behaved so violently that he was compelled to strike him with them. That was after witness was knocked against the waterbutt. He did not see any other person strike prisoner, but he was so vio lent that some of the constables might, for their own safety, have used a truncheon. _ . It was here stated that there were six or seven con stables near the station-house, endeavouring to get the prisoner there, but they were surrounded by a number of Irish, who threw stones, and attempted to interfere with the police in the execution of their duty. Mr. Combo said, that there appeared to have been sufficient constables to convey the prisoner to the station-house without using such violence. Inspector Branford informed his worship that the pri• soner was a very powerful man, and had only recently been eat of prison, where he had undergone six months' hard labour for a simi.ar offence. He was, in fact, a second Cannon, who was ti aasported for nearly murder ing Dwyer, a constable of the P division. Mr. Combe said, the prisoner had met with a good deal of ill-usage somewhere, both from the constables' truncheons and the handcuffs, or he should most cer- tainly have committed him for trial. He should, how ever sentence him to two months' hard labour at Wandsworth. The prisoner, who seemed agreeably surprised at his worship's lenity, thanked him, and laughingly leaped out of the dock. WORSHIP-STREET.—CHARGE AGAINST A SCRIP TURE READER.—Yesterday, Joshua Mull, a middle aged man of very respectable appearance, describing himself as a Scripture reader at St. Thomas's Church, Bethnal-green, and residing in Kittisford-place Hackney road, was brought up in custody before Mr. Tyrwhitt, charged with indecent conduct in the London-fields, in the presence of a nursemaid and children. Mr. Ashley, who was retained for the defence, de scribed his client as a person of position in society, and contended that the evidence was altogether of too incon clusive a nature for reliance to be placed upon it. He should be able to prove incontestably that the prisoner was not only a married man, but one wholly incapable of such conduct as that attributed to him, and for which, moreover, no possible motive could be assigned. The learned gentleman then called. The Rev. W. Williams, minister of St. Thomas's dis trict church, who stated that the prisoner had been both the organist and a Scripture reader at that church for a considerable time past, and that during the whole of the period he had been so acquainted with him he had never heard the slightest imputation upon his conduct, much less one of indecency, but that, on the contrary, his be haviour had been marked throughout by uniform pro priety._ - Mr. Tyrwhitt said, that every one acquainted with criminal proceedings must be aware of the painful feel ings such charges as these must inevitably excite, and more especially where, as in the present case, a person employed as an assistant-reader to a clerical minister, and receiving from that gentleman and others of un doubted respectability a truly excellent character, was charged with an offence of such a thoroughly disgraceful description. He had not the slightest hesitation in deal ing with the prisoner as a rogue and vagabond, and or dering him to be imprisoned for three months in the House of Correction, and kept to hard labour. THE FATAL ACCIDENT AT THE CRYSTAL PALACE. Last evening a meeting was held at the Crystal Tower, Norwood, in order to promote a subscription for the widows and children of the men killed by the recent accident at the Crystal Palace at Sydenham. It was expected that Lord Dudley Stuart would have taken the chair, but the noble lord sent a letter in which he stated that he found a change of scene and air was absolutely necessary after the severe labours of the session, and that be could not attend, but that he should be happy to join in any subscription for the purpose in view. Mr. Wilkinson also sent a letter expressive of his regret that he could not be present. Mr. Alcock, one of the mem bers for East Surrey, also wrote in similar terms. A letter was also read from Messrs. Fox and Henderson, in which those gentlemen stated that they sympathised deeply with the widows and orphans of the unfortunate men, and fully appreciated the efforts being made in their behalf, but they regretted that they should nit be able to come to the meeting. Mr. Thomas Nunn, the landlord of the house, who, it appears, had organised the meeting, was called to the chair. He expressed the deep sympathy he felt at the calamity. The men w ho bad been so suddenly killed had only a few evenings pr e• viously been at his house, and were enjoying themselves in harmless songs. Their fate had excited deep com miseration. He was happy to say that a subscription had been made for them at the house of Mr. Masters (the Crystal Palace Hotel), and about 40/. or 501. had been raised for them. Mr. W. S. isreti house, Blackheath, then moved_ severalthe ouse , of Ivy meeting rthreg withsoluti h o t ns e . e They stated the deep sympathy f relatives of the men who werekillehde, oapnedneedxpfroersstehdero, an opinion that a subscription shouldg the workmen the and that, with a view of laving oppor tunity of joining in the subscription, f ioo the resolutions wasn, any sum, however small, would be received. One for the formation of a com mittee to promote the subscrip tion. In moving theseresolutions Mr. Northouse urge d the working classes th e mselves to take up the ma tt er , and expressed his opinion that they detested th e id ea o f charity, andtherefore he was sure that th e y wou ld re l y chiefly on their own exertions, although, of course, they would not repudiate the assistance of benevolent frien ds. There were 2,0 00 workmen at the Crystal Palace, and if they would each devote only the price of half a pint of ale a week to the purpose, in one year a sum of 5001. m ight be raised in that way alone for the widows and orphans of these unfortunate sufferers. Mr. Thomas Ruston, churchwarden of Dulwich, seconded the resolu tions, and said that among his peighbours at Dtilwich, and also at Camberwell, deep sympathy was felt for the sufferers. The resolutions were unanimously agreed to, and a committee was formed to 'can'y out the objects of the meeting. CHAIRMANSHIP OP THE LONDON AND No lan-WESTER N. —The chairmanship declined by Lord tonsclale has been accepted by Mr. Benson, who otcapie;; it in lieu of General Moon, resigned. MIDDLESEX SESSIONS.-Aug. 23. (Before Mr. Sergeant Adams.) SELLING FORGED ORDERS OF ADMISSION TO " THE ADELPHI." unlaw fullyGhaving pretences from John Pallett, one shilling, with intent to cheat and defraud e4rge attempted i‘rewn t o n' obtain 47, pleaded b y him thereof. It appeared that on the 4th inst., the prisoner went to the shop of Mr. Pallett, a fishmonger, in Hunger ford-market, and asked him if he could make use of an guilty false to order for the Adelphi Theatre. He told the prisoner to call for an answer in a quarter of an hour. He went away, and returned within the time mentioned and handed to Mr. Pallett what purported to be an admis sion to the Adelphi Theatre. He asked for money for it, and represented that he was Mr. Webster's mes senger. The prosecutor, while the prisoner was away, had sent for an officer, who apprehended him, and on his being searched, a bundle of similar " orders" was found upon him. It would seem that he had been driving a rather successful trade in his own way, for one night no less than 60 of these spurious orders_wer e presented at the theatre, but were of course refused. The pri soner set up that in consequence of the great cab strike the play-going public could not get to the theatre, which had been the reason of an overflowing issue of orders to make up a house. This was untrue, and the order he had attempted to cheat the prosecutor with was a forgery. The Assistant-Judge said he found the prisoner had twice been convicted of felony, and then sentenced him to one year's hard labour. (Before Mr. Witham.) SINGULAR CASE OF ROBBERY. Elizabeth. Billings, 19, was indicted for having stolen a mahogany box, eight gold rings, and other article; value 201., the property of Selina Deane, in the dwell ing•house of Abraham Simmons. Mr. O'Brien appeared for the prisoner. The prosecutrix stated that she was the kept mistress of Abraham Simmons who was formerly landlord of the Sir John Falstaff public -house in Brydges-street, Covent garden. The prisoner had been in her service as maid of-all-work at that house, and during the time of her servitude several articles were missed. The prisoner left for a short time, but she returned again to her place on the 25th of July, on the following day she missed a box containing eight gold rings, a guard chain, four gold ear rings, and other articles, the value of which she esti mated at something more than 201. On the morning of the 28th of July she went with a sergeant of the detec tive police to 15, Lewisham -street, Westminster, where the prisoner was apprehended ; and on the way to the station in Bow-street, she began to cry, and asked wit ness whether, if she told all about it, she would not for give her ; to which she replied, that if she told all about it before a magistrate she would forgive her, if he would, as she had no wish to prosecute her, and she then said she had taken the things an d h a d pledged part of them. Several pawnbrokers' assistants proved the pawning of the articles by the prisoner. It was an important cir cumstance in the case that one of the rings was pawned on the 23d of July last, but the assistant could not, he said, swear that it was pledged by the prisoner. It was proved that the prisoner said at the police sta tion, " I took the things and afterwards pledged them." Mr. Witham then read from the depositions the fol lowing statement made by the prisoner before the magis trate on the 4th of August : " Last Wednesday week Mr. Simmons gave me the mourning ring. Last Monday morning week I went to his house ;he was standing at the door. I went in with my sister, and he told me to get him a cup of tea. I could not find my mistress, and he told me to go into the kitchen. I went there, and he followed me and be gan pulling me about in a very indecent manner, and I told him to keep his hands to himself. I went into the bar parlour, and he followed me in there. My sister (a child) was outside the bar, and she began to cry. He then brought this box out of a cupboard in the parlour and three receipts. He told me to burn the receipt, and gave me the mahogany box, saying, I will make you a present of this—it contained the rings and the ear-rings, and he behaved very indecently-towards me, and I told hiin I would not allow him to touch me from what I had heard of him. I said to him here's my mistress coming down stairs, and he said no she is not, she is fast asleep, and he began again with me ; and I said if he did not leave me alone I would go out of the house and call an officer. He said I will make you a present of these things, and if anybody asks you anything about it, deny it, and say I did not give it you. I was not to mention how he acted towards me. I asked him for some luci- fers to get out of the house, and he gave me some money to get some, and gave my sister a cake or a half penny not to cry. When he had got hold of me the barman came in, and he went away." The prosecutrix, in cross-examination, denied that she ever taxed Simmons with any impropriety of conduct to the prisoner. She knew Laura Graham, and had seen the party with Mr. Parkinson at the house. Simmons did not get the money he demanded of Parkinson, but probably he would yet. Simmons was then called. He positively denied ever having given the prisoner any of the articles, and indig nantly answered in the negative when asked as to the charge made against him by the prisoner. On the morn ing of the 25th July, when the prisoner alleged this to have occurred, she came to the house with her sister, and he set her to work to get his breakfast. The bar man was present, and could bear him out in stating that what the prisoner had stated was all false. The priso ner's sister, "An interesting child, 17 or 18 months old," he said, began to cry, and he gave her some bread-and-butter and a cake. She cried because her sister was away. He denied the allegations one by one, and swore they were utterly false. . . In cross-examination, he - said he could not recollect whether the Chief Justice told him in his case (Simmons v. Parkinson) that he ought to be indicted forperjury, and told the jury not to believe him on his oath ; but this he knew, that the defendant, Parkinson, owed him more than 4,0001., and that they said he charged too much for goods, and that the jury believed the other side more than they did him, for he didn't get the verdict. Mr. O'Brien—Were you ever tried yourself ? Witness (carelessly)—l don't know. Mr. O'Brien—Don't know, sir ! Do you expect that jury there to believe anything you say after giving that answer ? eiln a kindfr esho. The witness here got very violent, and said be came there to speak the truth, and nothing but facts, and he wished to know what this had to do with the present case. He said he was tried about six years ago for re ceiving a thousand pound note, but Baron Parke, the judgo on the occasion, stopped the case before three words were said. He had received the note as a bet on the course at Epsom, one Derby day, from a man named Green. " The case (he said) never went to the jury, and why is this brought up agin me now ?" and he pro ceeded, heedless of the admonition of the Court, to give the jury his account of all that took place in the bar parlour on the morning of the 25th of July, very earnestly protesting that his only object was to tell the truth. Mr. Witham said the witness was conducting himself with great impropriety. In further cross-examination, he said he had seen the prisoner's father in reference to the case. He did not say to him that if the prisoner would withdraw the charge she had made upon him, he would not prose cute her—but that if she did se he would recommend her to mercy. Mr. O'Brien—Has Miss Deane ever charged you with impropriety towards this young woman. Witness—Well, this is fresh—You ask curious and B t r it i ah e ee n s —epfr prisoner. ns o onn y ye o r u ci. u know eHsta:inas Laura nya tnhdi G n gs r o a om h f a et m thh funny questions — Witness—Yes I do— Mr. O'Brien—And acquainted with her as you are, i b O n y k ' —Answer the question, sir. Witness—Why no, she never did. The barman was then called. His evidence fully cor roborated that of Simmons in negativing the charge curred he must have both seen and heard • it. The pri soner's sister was five or six years old. Mr. O'Brien then addressed the jury, them that the evidence of Simmons Ho urged upon credit, and that as the case dependedwaa not worthy of entirely upon his oath, the jury would see of what value what he had said yoMu made trh. on oath was. The learned counsel then alluded to the late case of Simmons v. Parkinson, and the part the plaintiff had born e i n it—the p ainted horse sums of money charged for ,the immense Graham, with whom , jewell ery, and miss Laura he had slept—and said it was clear that his denial of • what the prisoner had alleged had been got up between him and the barman. The prisoner's father deposed that before the final ex amination before the magistrate, Simmons sent for him and offered to forego all prosecution, if the prisoner would withdraw the charge she had made. . Mr. Witham, in summing up, dwelt strongly on the admissions made by the prisoner, that she had taken the things. If the defence was not true, it was an infa mous one, for then the prisoner had taken advantage of Simmons' bad character—for it could not at all be said that his character was good—to make up this charge against him. The jury found the prisoner guilty, with a strong re commendation to mercy. Mr. Witham inquired on what grounds ? The Foreman said—Under all the circumstances of the case. Mr. Witham did not think it was a case for mercy at all, after the defence set up. Mr. O'Brien said, as he stood there, he believed every word of what the prisoner had said ; and though twelve men would not believe the ow! Simmers, I _ 3l a cue of . tea. ~- oi
