Dir. WHITE—I have ru doubt it i. the 'truth ; butititfair,
because your vessel is Neuter, that you should take the &delusive,
and jockey the others uct of their station whil,it waiting for high
water? 'fills joekeyship, I ill,o.lre you, will not do, and 1 mast con-

Mr. llfillett stepped forward, and state! that he did not wilb to
enforce the penalty, as the lighterman, business it was to
attend the wintrf, was i.h.ent, cud the peneliy woad fall upon him,
notwithstanding he had been frequently serval the same tria to his

Sat loss. . •
The slatr.istrate said he Wal glad to hear that ; it was but
proper the lightennan should suffer for his neglect of duty ; how.
ever. he would mitigate the penalty to tar. and costa, which was in.
stantly paid.

Cum: os or Fount.. a I.—Yesterday, a young man, named
Thomas Wick, an auctioneer snProti,:s. in Kiug-street, in the
Borengh, was brought before. R. J. Chambers. Esq. charged with
lincmg, utt Ilhh alt hert. hat, at the pariiilt of St. Sariour. South.
wall. feloniously forgcd and counturteited a check, purporting to
he the hand-writing of Joseph l'tirner, and drawn upon Henry
Weston, t'. Allen Young, and Ellis liteitnek, hankers, t it th 7 pay.
nizint of MIL with intent to defraud that flint, against tin:Statute. &c.
The yrixir.cr appears to be about 24 years uf age, and was staled

to have been carrying on a very respectable business in the uphoh,
tery and appraising line in King-street, Snow's-lields,
Upon searching the prisoner, sixty-eight sovereigns were found
in his purse.
Mr. Ilan mEll, who attended for the prisoner, requeit,d
tai.
the case against his client might be postponed for a future ix:
minstion.
The Magistrate said. that he had no objection, if the ptapc,,,f,
met with the consent of one of the firm ( M r. Weston) then
who immediately acquiesced in the suggestion ; and Mr. Clux:
malts haying asked that gentleman whetter he suspected NA
lieved the prisoner to have COMlllitted a fidiory on the busk
which he was a partner, the answer being in the affirmative, t,
prisoner was accordingly remanded.
We understand that two or three other cases of forgery
preferred against the prisoner at the next examination.

A Gentleman from the Mendicity Society applied rstertla,,,,
the part of the poor Irishman, whose ease we noticed lan The,.
day, when it appeared that the order which the Magistrate py

gerously ill with the small-pox, had produced no effict. The re,,,

plied to have the order rescinded, which* was done, see
poor woman left to suffer without any kind of assistance ever etc,.
The Magistrate desired the Overseer and the Parish Serve,
who was sent for, to accompany the gentleman to see the magi
the man's wife; and on their return an order was made out le
fourteen shillings a.week, until the woman's recovery, .f,O„,
