- POLICE. mo w.-.-.~. ll.trroN-GARDE - k.---Ba/ditiin, Carr, Oney, and a Voy named Stephenson, who had been - brought be -1:)re---the Magistrates last week, -on a charge of steal ing corn from Mr. Thos. Fag's stables, were yester day again brought up for further e:tarnination. .The Prosecutor, Mr. Fag, was a respeaable stable keeper in George-yard, Leather-lane, andthe Prison ,erßalclwin was a respeaable bricklayer, whO bad a -Stable in the same yard, opposite Mr. Fag's, Oney tii :is Baldwin's man, and Carr was horse-keeper to Mr. Fag. In addition to what had transpired on the former examination,-Mr. John Miller, clerk to Mr: Fag, de: posed, that frequent depredations of this nature ;having been committed, and suspicion falling on some of the Prisoners, he determined to watch their motions ; and, accordingly, On- Thursday morning last, before six o'clock, lie took his station opposite the yard-gate. He.soou after ebservfed Oney knock , at the gate, anti Baldwin, who got up ; Oney lighted a candle, and they both went into Baldwin's gable. Immediately after, out came Carr from Mr. rag's stables, crossed over to Baldwin's, and got_ his candle lighted. In the mean time, the Witness slipped into the stable, and secreted himself ; Carr returned with his candle, and a bag, and he'ob served him go to the oat-binn, fill the bag with corn, And return to Baldwin, to i.vhonyhe gave it. The Witneas then dizicoverd himself to them, and seized Baldwin. There were other persons in: the stal)le; but he could 'not swear to any of them but Bald win, Carr, and Oney. • The bag and corn were produced, and proved by Mr. Fag to. be his property. ; also an empty bag, which was 'found in Baldwin's house, to which lie positively swore. The corn was mixed with beans, pease; and chaff,and proved to be of the value of 15d. the bags 3d. each, which was sufficient to make the offence amount to Grand Larceny. Solicitors attended on both sides ; the Gentleman on behalf of Baldwin, contended, that upon .this evidence his client - was not aprincipal in the theft, but only an accessary, after the fad Was committed ; he was upon his own premises at .the ticoe, , ,where,. lie had a -right, to be ; he therefore suhmittethe' might be discharged upon bail ; he was a mati.of respeaability, his reputation was called.in question, and several persons of known responsibility attended to give security.- The Sitting Magistrate thought, on the contrary, that the whole was a premeditated plan between the • parties ; and he, therefore, felt himself justified in Cully committing them for trial ; which was accord done. As to the boy (Stephenson) it appeared, by the testimony 'of John Trott, the Officer, who Was so aftive in the apprehension of all the parties, that when he went to take up Oney the' boy van away, be followed, and took hire into cuacidy, :when.,;the boy seemed to know the business .perfealy`well.= Hewas detained for' ftirther investigation.

TiE General Quarter Sessions of the 'Peace, for he County of Wilts, were last week held at De- vizes. k . • John Aust was indiaed on the .Statute .6 Geo. 111. for cropping and spoiling timber trees, in - . the parish of Bradford, belonging to John Milliatn Yerbury, Esq. in the night time, which makes the offence fe lony, and empowers the Court to -transport for Seven years the. Jury returned a verdi& of Guilty , when Mr. Yerbury addressed the Court, stating, that as Thomas Wilier (Who was' indieted with Aust, but had for the present escaped from 'justice) ; appeared to be the principal• offender, and most de serving of exemplary punishment, he wished merely that the present conviaion might deter others from Offences of this kind; by doing away a mistaken notion among the lower orders of people, that they are liable to no other punishment than a small fine. This humane recommendation the Court attended to, and 'sentenced the Prisoner to only.six months im prisonMent, instead of the heavy punishment of transportation. - Thomas Dix, Jones Dix, and John Davis, were indiaed for stealing a 'fowl, the property of Mrs. Flower, of Milford, near Bradford; but the two latter only were tried, the former ; having escaped from justice. It appeared, that the Prisoners had . , been out in their vocation, late at night, with three 'terrier dogs; and the noise made by Mrs. Flower's poultry having alarmed the family, they were ptir.,. stied; and at length taken into custody ; but the persons' who first: pursued them were so severely beaten, and bitten by the terriers, as to be left sense less. From 'theseaggravating circ.urnstances, they were sentenced to six months imprisonment ; one in thelcells at Fisherton Gaol, and the other in the cells at Devizes Bridewell. George Young, of Trowbridge, weaver, indiaed. by special dire alon of the Com Missioners, of Taxes,' for resisting the Colle&or of Taxes, and the' Con stable assisting him in levying the same, was found Guilty, and sentenced to be imprisoned three calen dar months,- in Devizes Bridewell, to pay a fine of 01, and to find sureties fora bia good=behaviour for two years. • Lawrence - and John Reuel, indiaed, by di .reCtion -of the Admiralty ; Board,- for• assaulting a Serjeant of Marines, when on duty in the recruiting service, were founa G uilty; and sentenced to be iql prisoned, and to .find sureties for their gOod beha viour ; but,.by consent of the Wart and Prosecu tor, they were allowed to enlist into_ the Royal Ma tines. And six men, who bad deserted their families, were sentenced each to six months' imprisonment.; LELDS, JAN. 18. On Monday last, at the Quarter Sessions for . this Borough, 'William :Pott.i, of Wc;odhouse, clothier,: was convicted of stealing a silver pint; the property. of Mr. Strickland; Innkeeper,:of this town, andsen tenced to be transported for seven years. John Harrison, Joseph ilncicles, and John Sykes, pleade4 guilty to an indiament, charging them with an aSsauit; and were-sentencek . to one. month's im prisontnent. irjiijamin Ellis, Matthew Bradley, and John Ba,•-• . ret; all of 'Royds, near .Beestor4, were charged with assembling in a riotous manner, near the dwelling bense of John 'Hetherington; of tioyds and Also with throwing stones, and breaking his windows, — "This trial occupied the Court several hoUrs. . The witnesses were numerous,' and, in -many important particulars, flatly contradiaed 'each other; to one side or other the guilt of wilful perjury •must be attached. The Jury found all the Defendants — Guilty. ,The RECORDER, after 'expressing hts abhorrence of the perjury which had been. resorted to, sentenced B. Ellis to six miniths'imprisonment.; and'Matthew -Bradley and John Ellis, to fourteen days iniptison- Merit in the Horse of CorreEtion at Wakefield. The two latter were children, apparently not more than twelVe years of age. • , Samuel Wood, clothier; of Wortley, was, indiEted for breaking the window of Cooper', of Wort-. • ley. The rosecutor stated, that on the evening of Sunday, the 22d of September, about half past nine o'clock, he saw the Prisoner approach his house, and after corning close to the Window, to ascertain that there was no person in the houSe, 'the Prisoner took a stone and broke, a pane of glass, and imme diately retired. Four Witnesses were called for the Defendant, who, if their testimony - .had ,been credit ed, would have sufficiently established an alibi. The Jury found the Defendant :Guilty, . but judg : Inent was respited, on a point of law, until the next Sessions- • • , :-- James Whitaker, of Armley, was found Guilty of.: an assault on - Crabtree, of the same place, and sentenced to one montA's imprisonment.

Barbadoes, precious - _to ,which she.. was to join_the.conVoy at Cork.' She was unfortunately ;overtaken„by a.dteadful storm, driven on the.Weleh :Coast, and foundered at the back of Holyhead, and all on board perished.; Several. boxes, con taining soap and candles, .haying been: driven on 1 shore, there is reason to suppose she is the Cecilia, of Dublin, Captain BRoWNEj which sailed.on that day. ,?►tlth'Ci , RsDlß, YAN. . In the flight • between, Wednesday and Tluttsday last such immense '.torrents _of rain ,fell.inthis town and neighbourhood, as net only to swell the , rivers to an almost unparalleled magnitude,- but to 61411- date the whole of the laud lying upon their borders. Messrs. FORSTER and. BARGE . 4 wooden bridge at Broughton Pord. was carried away by the strength and rapidity of file flood, and the -merciless element seemed at one time to threaten general devastation. Horses, .sheep, furniture„ and other effects,, were seen floating down the stream,, nor was itpOssible to save the property. All the lower.part of Broughton township was -completely.overfldwed, and, we'are concerned to add, several, cows are stated to have been drowned. The. damage sustained, we have every reason to apprehend,. is.much more consider able than upon any similar occasion. Most of the cellars in the lower parts of. Salford, and the . tmder rooms-of the dwelling-hduses in Strangeways,. were entirely filled with Water,: •large quantities- of -which flowed up the bottorn of :Greengate; its the--after noon of Thursday -the flood began gradually to subside. . • The above dreadful deluge, we fear, must 'have spread its ravages to a wide extent. The mail coach from London to . I,iverpool, which should have reached Warrington:between the hours of eleven and twelve on Thursday night, had' not arrived at the latter town at six o'clock the following morning; nor was the -f,ll,rerpool'irrail-coach - for ~I.,ondonable to proceed farther than. Warrington , Owing to the Cheshire side behig eptireirinurideed: 'The mad froM : Chester to this town was detained by 'a 'similar impediment. ; , • - "One day last week 4 sister of Mrs - , Hogarth, wife of Mr. Hdgarth, spirit-merchant, in Salford, died of what is stated toshaVe been a putrid fever. Mrs. H. in attending her sister, also caught the same dis order, which fatally terminated her ,existence in a : day or two. afterwards. What renders this truly awful and melancholy visitation the more distressing is, that Mr. H. himself, his youngest child, rand a female servant, .have all been attacked by the . same dreadful malady; but hopes are entertained of their recovery. On Saturday se'nnight an alarming fire broke out in the extensive distillery at the top of Mill-street, Belfast, which, however, was got ,under without doing so much damage as was at .first apprehended. It was_occasiontid by one of the spirit vats running over, which caused a dreadful explosion. Two.men were much. burnt ; one of whom is since dead; • • On Saturday se'nnight a child about five years of age,. daughter of Mr. James Harrop, .of Ashton under7line, having gone into a neighbour's house -to: play with other children, they all went into an upper room, where a loaded musket had been left,; 'when, unfortunately, Mr. H.'s.child looked into the muzzle of the. piece at the moment another touched. the trigger,. aißl ! , the contents lacerated the Intaitt's face in so dreadful a manner, that she died the sanie. evening. - • : On Wednesday i ,se'nnight, as John Mabbott,. i.O the service of Mr.,,Morris„. brewer, of Ampthill, Beds, was returning home with a load.of barley, the. rain occasioned him:to reach his groat-oat from the Waggon,' when the wheel moving, his foot was.w , entangled as , nearly to .twist_off his toes, which. brought on a lock jaw", and - occasioned his death.in a •few -days. . . On Saturday afternoon a young man of respea 'able connexions, in the neighbourhood of Tooley-., street; took a boat at Dock-head, and ordered:the..- - waterman to carry him to Billingsgate-stairs. gaining the middle of the stream, he rose, and ex -claimed ‘` will go, no farther ;" on which he pre-' cipitated himself into, the river.
