ROBBERY BY AMELs_ . SAILORS 010 1,200 Domans.—
Albion D. Washbarn, described as the third mate of the
ship Ironside, and Smith G. Wells, the carpenter of the
same vessel, just arrived here from New York, were charged
with having stolen 600 dollars from two Frenchmen, named
Peire Breach and Peire Raymond. The prisoners were in
custody of detective officer Cozens, who made a statement;
the substance of which was as foii,;ws : —The complainants
came as passengers by the vessel from .tv-b;',,, York, but before
the ship was long at sea, the prisoners robbe.! the cont.;
plainants of about 600 do.iars a quantity of clothes, And
otber thing's, and treated the poor fellows in the most
abominable and unmanly manner—not fit tone stated. This
was done on the high seas, and when the ship came into
the river, the prisoners, es alleged, stole 600 additional
dollars from a bed where the complainants had the money.
Cozens searched the ship, and other places, but did not
find any of the money. The prisoners were then arrested,
but as the alleged offence was said to be committed in the
district of the county magistrates in the river, the prisoners
were transferred to that court in Clayton-square. The two poor
Frenchmen wera most deplorable objects. They hardly had
any thing on them ; and, besides, they seemed nearly worn out
from ill-u3age, which they said they had received. After
investigating the case, when the above facts transpired, 8
difficulty arose, as there was no direct proof that the robbery
was committed in the river, and the ship being an American,
Mr. Snowball urged that the bench had no jurisdiction in
the care, and the magistrate was therefore compelled to
discharge the prisoners.

MURDEROUS
.ASSAULT AMAwN soFmnALND
Robert Deegan,
alias " Black Bob," a person well known
to the police; wad
charged with having committed a desperate assault on a
woman named Catherine F:yn3, who lives with the
prisoner as his wife, in a house in Ford Street. From the
evidence of police-officer Magee, 677, it appeared that, on
Wednesday, the prisoner got drunk, and created a row with
the complainant, whom he knocked down and kicked in the
most brutal manner, inflicting many severe bruises on her
body, and also a dangerous wound on one of her eyes...-
The officer took her to tie dispensary, and had her wounds
dresstA, and then took her home, when the prisoner swore
a terrible oath that he would murder the woman, and was .
about putting his threat into execution when the officer
arrested him. Whea brought before his Worship, the
woman_ presented a serious appearance, but she utterly
refused to give evidence against the prisoner. His Worship
said he heard evidence enough to convict, and sentenced the
prisdner to six months' imprisonment, with hard labour.
Ito prisoner fell down in the dock and roared like a bull,
until he was removed by force.

INCENDIARY

FIRE.

DESTRUCTION OF THREE STACKS OF CORY.

Abort three o'clock yesterday morning a fire was discovered
is the stockyard in connection with the farm occupied by Mr.
Aspinall, in Ullet-lane. The information was speedily con-
veyed to the West of England and Temple-court fire
stations, and the respective superintendents of those two
partments, accompanied by the members of the fire
sde, and the usual apparatus, were soon at the scene of
a was

the condigration, and by their ex,
extinguished by six o'clock, not, howe

stacks,

two of whi

at and one

were six other stacks
which must have inevitably been dostro3
for the judgment of the respective Superintendents Hewitt
and Barrett, and the exertions of the brigades under their
command. The stock and grain are insured in the Sea
Fire Office for £1,500, but the damage done will not exceed
£l5O. There is no doubt but that the stacks were set on
fire. About the time of the firo a man was observed loiter-
ing about the premises, by one of the Borough Police Con_
stables, who apprehended him as a person of suspicious
character, and upon his being conveyed to the bridewell, he
made a statement to the effect, that he had fired the stacks.
At that time the constable was not aware of the fire, but it
was soon after discovered.
