AI agistracy, awl of Countr y ilja gistrates 11).1m - tit:I:kr For silpe time past., there has existed a novel but desperate gang of swindling informers, whose eiliarts have beet; particri larly directed against the I'mq:llu:re:is Ssr,stae Cotactk's, to "whoM we trust the exposure oft he present account will prove a salutary warning. The plan pursued. by the harpies is this:—Tory loiter about all parts-of the Country, - through which Stage Coaches pas. , , and under pretenre of r,iring- infortualion against the owners 'for carrying an extra numL-er of passengers, or of luggage, they sibtain a summons or warrant, which they contrive to serre themset'ecs, and by :means of which, but too frequently succeed in frightening the party into the payment of the full penalty, or at least a sun& of money by way of coni;iisinise - . In either case the Magistrate or t he Crown seldom met ire el en oneltalf of the amo u nt levied, while the: informer most gene rally pockets the whole ! But the following account of the ne farious proceedings of these public roliber.s, exceeds any thing. we have premised : Oil the Bth of October last, an information was laid before ii: S. Trimmer, F.N. , 'a Magistrate residing- in the parish of , Middlesex, gainst . .Mr. B. Brother - ton, of Liverpool. This Cientlerrian,v.ho has acquired a eoniiderable fortune as stage-coach owner, t.:as resided in the town mentioned for mails years., where lie has also been held in high estimation, nut for the extent of his establishments, but for his probity anti worth. The vile informers, however, determined upon the attainment of their " base-lucre," actually set fort h° in their information, that Mr. Brotherton.was w resident of the :afore said parish of Ealing in Middlesex, . andthat he had suffered, or caused to be carried on his coach, front Liverpool to Lon than, a quantity of extra luggage, the penalty on Which amounted to nearly 70/. The name of the-principal informer advaheed in this case, was John Situppin, fit. Martin's lane, Charing-cross ut upon the most vigilant enquiry, since set IM foot, no such person was to be,found. The companion of this redaubtable-rufliatt was a fellow calling himself Wit limn Bowes, -who bore out the testimony of Simpson, and they obtained what they wanted —a summons, which they pro mised to serve thonselves ! The day arrived for hearing the summons, the Informerswere in 'attendance, nod swore the sommons was left at the Liverpool Coach-Office, Saracen's Head, SnoWhill No such SUMMOIIS was kit to any one p e r. sole; but Mr. Brothertmt did not appear, the ia fact, without service, put the. summons in their pocket. They now urged the issue of a warrant for the apprehen sion cr - rlllr. 'Brothcrtion, and after saute hesi tation obtained one if, the.usual foram, directing the body of the said good Gentleman to be conv o y e d to the prison of Coldbai la-Gelds, in default of his paying the penalty. By virtue of this, aoother men), natatcd * James Rogers, proceeded to the residence of Mr, Brothertoo4 at Liverpool, where, after hissing his warrant backed by Mr. W -a •Magistrate there, he attempted t o take the former into custody, unless he paid the penalty Mr.' B. was at the moment in the most 'dangerous state of health, and his physicians were of opinion that to rethove hint would he to hazard his life. - •The informer said, he did not so much .rcgardthe custody of Mr. llrothert on, - as lie desired the possession of the money I the penalty which his warrant at tested To.the lasting credit of tifr. Brotherton, however, he re -sisted the claim, but pledged himself to appear before the „Magistrates in London, the moment of his recovery. Th e ,Informer, frightened, decamped, and Me. Brat herton, • hap pily recovering a little, made jorernies to laindim, one to tip , ;peal , personally before the. Magistrate,. and. ;O:rwiteds to attend the Quarter Sessions at to answer the charge of the Intonners: The latter were tint to he found, nor upon. a second visit of Mr. B did:the wi etches dare , tai ap pear to sustain the information. '1 he cons ietion, at:..first ittakle, was of course quashed.

They ran:violefuly against the witness, and on her reinoustrating with 'them, they immediately attacked both her self Mid the younger puning them about in a toast indecent Manner, and making use of very obstene language. A watchman, who observed their conduct, - OuStied them away; and advised them to go home ; but they persisted in maltreat ing the ladies, and were finally taken to the watch hois'e. Two 'watchmen' corroborated the testimony of Mrs. Prosser, and said that the conduct of the young rarer► was most disgraceful. The Loin) MOott reprehended the misconduct of the young' men, and sail he would not suffer such outrages to be 'committed with impunity, His Lordship ordered them to find good bail for their appearance at the Sessions, which they : did, DARING RoBBERY.—Mary Cole, Charles Duproy and WillOnz Sey►izour were brought rap on suspi cion.of having plundered the shop of Mr. Key, dru:zgist, Aidgate. ,The shopman Said; that on Sunday. : night, between 7 and- 9 o'clock; the till of the - shop" .was robbed of a pocket •hook con taining a checkloripl. 145., and Bank-notes and gold amounting to 241.

PAVE:MENTB.—Ye!.;terd.y Wiiii3ol Storey; surveyor of the p,,vvtnents of the parish of St. George,• nanover-sgtiat•e, appeared on stubmons, before the Magistrates, to ~hew cause why the pavements •in Upper Eaton-street and L ' f.) r Eaton -street, Pindico, in that parish, should not be repaired. On the part of the complainants, two Witnesses proved, that for several months past, up to this time, the pavements in the ahove stret.s have been so very defective, :is to occasion-serious‘ inconvenience to passengers and carriages. It was also proved, that the reg.tdar notice red tired by the Act had been served at MI% Story's lirnme in August last. Mr: Leigh, clerk to the Committee of Paving, appeared on. the.pait of .Mr.. Storey, and stated, that the streets mimed in the information were 'private .property and had never been paved by the .parish. The inhabitants never had paid a paving rate, and the Parish Committee never consider, d themselves bound to pave - it. It was part of Lord Grosvenor's estate ; and w4ien it was last paved, it ntust have been done by his Lordship, The Magistrates tirade. an order to• repair upon the Surveyor', cOosidering'the 'streets to be public streets, as described in. the.
