POLICE. .MANstow4loosa.—Yesterday Aleph Pitt was charged before the Lord Mayor. with forcibly tak ing irons the person of Mr. .Prior, a gold watch chain, with. three seals, and a gold key. Mr. Prior stated, that as he was•going home the night 'before, al,out eleven o'elock, he was met by three men, near the corner of Gracechurch.street, who came close up to him : the shortest,of them. (meaning the prisoner), he said, snatched at his gold seals, and broke the, chain close by the ward), and ran away with the seals in his hand ; that he pursued him a few yards, and took him, when he heard the 'seals drop ; that he called for the watchman, who came to his assistance, when they found the gold chain and seals close by, which the watchman produced, and corroborztcd the evidence given by the pro,ecu to'. The prisoner in his defence, denied the chiage : said he was a man of very good family, was a silver ! . smith, and at this time had property to.a consider able amount; he added, that , his Lordship was known to his father and some of his family ; that he had a wife and child, and mentioned whe,re he had lived in respettability. His Lordship said, all might true; but that the prosecutor hial positively tivorn to his taking the chain and. seals by force, and of . pis not having lost sight of him till be took dim irf custody ; as such, he must.commit him for trial, which be did, and bound over the parties , to give ovideoce:. Several respeaable yottng men were summoned before his Lordship by the Keepers of the Royal &change, charging them with . obstro6ting them ono their assistants in shutting .the gates st Poor agreeable to an order given to do so by the Gresham Committee. .Mr. Patten, one of the Chavgo Keepers, complained of the difficulty he aM his as sistants had to obey the orders of the Greshatri Corn mitiee lhat he had pointed out the defendants as being OM Most naive in lire obstrutztion, one of whom 'knocked off the man's hat 'who was ring ing the bell to warn them oat. He was ordered to find bail to answer the complaint, the 'others were discharged. Row.stacrr.--lMonday, John Beaumont, Gethair Kerry, and another man, were brought fo•tt , e Of fice, before Mr. READ, charged wish Minting and destroying some aces in Kensington G4rdens, Suntlay,'und with assaulting SacOn and his as,istants, who have the care of the Gardens, in the eiecution of their duty. The'otficers, after they had secured them, lodged them in Knightsbridge watch-house, where they weic all night without a bed, &c. •theit Progniiiing not to .be guilty of a sitnibir offence, they were ailmitted to bail. George Turner, a pawnbioker, *as conviaed, on the evidence of Samuel Stracham, of taking more profit than is allowed by Act. of Parliament. James Hodge, a baker, was ( conviete,d, on the evidence of the same informer, - for expoiing to sale fitirtwo two penny loaves of wheaten bread, with out having the Roman W.. itnpressed on them, as the Att directs. The defendant pleaded .Guilly, and was fined one shilling for each loaf, and five shillings costs. Uwe HALi...—Yesterday a charge of felony; under the following singular eircurnitances, was pre ferred before the Sitting Magistrate, 'by Edward Barrilla, against a woman of respectable appearance and connections, residing in Penton-place, in which house he lodged. From Mr.'Barrilla's stayer:war, it appeared that he occupied a shop and parlour in the prisoner's liou.+e and on Sunday last he . weot out, accompanied by his wile, leaving nobody in the house but the prisoner ; and on their return, about ten o'clock, she was gone out also; he let hiMself in with a key, which heusually carried in his pocket; and on entering the passage, his progress , was im peded by a large bundle, which on examination proved to tie a micel of sheets.and blankets tied up together, as ready to take out of the house it im nediately struck him the house had been robbed ; and his suspicions were confirmed, when, on going to the parlour doer, he found, it locked, and the key taken away, though be left it open when be went out. The back door, which he secureil'was Unbolt ed, and a small black leather trunk, which he left iu the parlour, was lying in the kitchen. broke open, and the contents scattered about the floor, except 81. in Bank• notes and a slyer watch; which were gone, . , Thete was the diaiter of a writi n g ` l belonging to the prisoner, lying in .the trunk Wiree desk, and a bundleof . the -prisoner's clothes, in the law. °inning up stairs to the part of the house occupial 4' the Prisootr, her featlier-bed was found tied up in a•blanket, is if ready, to be carried away; and two . of the'drawers, in which the keys were left, were emptied of their contents. Some silver Spoors also belonging to the prosecutor, which were in a closet -in the parlour, were left behind, and na thing but the‘watch•and notes. miising. During di/ scald), the prisoner returned ; and on being told by the prosecutor that he was robbed, was about to ex press her sorrow, but percng her writing.desic broke open, immediately said she was rebbed a lit; uth of a 51. no te, _which was in th e drawer; of the tr -of this assertion, the Irosecwor expressed his doubts, as the .prisoner had in the preceoding week several times boo rowed small sums, saying she had no money in the.house.

After the observations which have been already made rin this, and my preceding Leiters, it feetus hardly necessary to pay any further attention to these declarations. There appears to be, Sir, a sin- Slit, gular fatality in your,mode of considering this sub jed. You invariablY draw your . conclusions from the tads winch bear upon &ie side of the question, Thellituation you are placed in requires the most itnortial prouedure and whatever your individual opinion may be, the respeCtive facts ought to be - laid open to the pitblic. The most common understand ing must be fullyawareohat nothing but the most. obvious, unanimous, and progrt.:ssise pr, oi, can jos.' tity the decisive,' recommendation of a practice, upon wideb an inunense slake depends. You endeaiour to sueport these declarations by rnentioning,you have the authority of several -Vac cine Instuntions, and.qiiore the rep.irt. of the (01-' loges of Surgeons,and Physicians in,,E.linburgh a nd Gidsgriw, and particularly . bring ,torwaid •I t o state and effects of the Vaccine practice in the island of Ceylon. In my Letters to Dr. Jenner; I have alrt•udy - nit;tt. tioned, that dig opinions of Viicc►ttr itt,tiwt,nt must be considered as ex-park evidett:e„inct are not entitled to the smallesi influence .11 i I r' t_t! , _ folv this question. I cannot indeed make a y objecittin to the reports of tlw other respect,,ble bodies,.but I believe I may safely assert, they AN net ter be coosi tiered as the unanimous opinion ot . these Colleges ; and, at all events, they!cannOt be considered as so perior to those of the same class. I should be glad, Sir, to be jtiformedMow ppri come to be deprived of the declarations of the Physicianri aid Snigeoes of the London aod .Doblm Coliegesi As, to the island of Ceylon, it floes not afford, in my opinion, a lair criwion to judge may be justly con sidered as an hospital.upon a large scale, e the few avenues it posseoes for the admission of Sm ill Pox contagion Oti be at present easiiy .secured and coe trouled. I would,' hoWever, have no objection to risk the triad' of my opinions, and the fate of. the qtotiOtt, upon this very example, , were it not 'the height of meatiness and folly, nay, indeed professi onal stiicide, to allow, either thin the science of me dicine in Great Britain does not possess characters at leait. equal, it not superior, to those of Ceylon, or that the country, in. which the practice originated, does not afford superior opportunities for risceriain 7 mg the efficacy of the Vaccine practice. But hi 00, iosition to such an example, I beg leave to state as a ,act, that the practice of Vaccieation has, during the last two or three years, rapidly ditninished all over the European continent, and in Weeny parts of the Westlndies and America, it is • almost become extinct. Even in meat, eases inimical to the per fection olr the• Vaccine discovery have matte their appearance; and in every sh tuition where the praCe iice has been introduced, it has been , fullne ed . by ciicutnstances exactly . corresponding with those wlinh have been observed here, viz. in all those cases where Small Pox has been introduced into a bind), only those who had been vaccinated were influenced by' tie. contagion,, while those who had' ptis d through the Small Pox, whether froth natu ral or inoculated contagion, uniformly and complete ly resiwed the power elthe epid,emic a secood Also, those individuals who have. been subjected to Small Pox alter Vaccination; have in general exceed« ed the period of two or three years atter the Vaccine process; and in proportion to the distance from Vac cination, so haVe theinstances increased in uumber and severity ; and these cases have in general been ' coefined to' the lower orders of society.. These peculiarities appear to inc decisive. It would surely be unreasonable to , ,eontend, that the uniform exemption in the one case, and the 'lre! quent and regular exertion of, t he variolous influence in the other, can be owing to any thing but, the fee ble, partial, and temporary influence of Vaccination. It certainly would be the height of telly to in sist tha n the giaduel and progressive increase of cases of • Small Pox/ after ehe Cow Puck, every onccessive year, can bermribed to any other cause than the gradual exiinction of Vaccine influence: but it, wonld.be madness itself to maintain, the ,profession • have been so stuifid, base, and wicked, as .to have vaccinated the rich perfectly, and the' poor imper fectly.
