SURREY SESSIONS. Jan. 10.

[fad hr_ ire Mr. Serjeant OrrsLow, Chairman, and
several Jassires.
Charles Reek, f and William Fellstul, two respeda-
hie traders, in the rope and twine-making business,
were indided for fraudulently receiving half a ton
weight of hemp, the property of Messrs. Duncan
and Haynes, merchants.
On the part of the prosecution, a man of the
name of King was produced, who had formerly
concluded den Weariest of the Prosecutors. He de-
posed, that he lived with them in 1001 and 1804.
On the 24th of July, in the latter year, he sold to
the Prisoners about half a ton of hemp, which be-
longed to the Prosecutors. Being in the habit of
meeting one of the Prisoners at a public house, it
was there the bargain was made.
On cross-eiarnination, the Witness said. the Pri-
soners had asked him whether the hemp were his own
property ? and he told them it was. It lay on his
master's wharf, and one of the carts usually em-
ployed by his master, was hired to carry it to the
Prisoners' premises. The hemp was weighed out
to nirn at nine o'clock in the morning, and carried
of wkhout any particular hurry, as if it bad not
b-en a fraudulent trarisadion. He received eight
pounds down in payment for it, and took the bill
of the Prisoners'. who were in partnership. for
the remainder. This bill was not paid when it be-
came due, the Prisoners having failed, but he has
since, with their other creditors, received two divi-
dends. In August 1804, he was discharged from
the service of the Prosecutors, on suspicion of
having stolen this hemp, and on a promote of not
being himself prosecuted, had informed against
the Prisoners.

The carter who carried the hemp, and some other
Witnesses, were called ; but, on cross-er.imination,
they all said, that the husiness was CAZI ird on in the
usual tbanler, arld,that there was no kind of con-
cealment, whatever, in loading or taking away the
hemp.
Mr. Lows, for the Prisoners, was heard at con-
siderable length, but did nut call witnesses, as he
conceived the Jury were already convinced of the
innocence of his clients.
The CM A I esess then read over the evi.leaze, And
the Jury pronounced a verdi •t of atrquettAi.

Icons Mr. Thonhis Fag's staples, Were yes:ern:,
aguin brought up for further examination.
MI. Fag, was a respeCtable
stable-keeper in George yard, Leather-lane, And
the Prison-, Baldwin, was also a respelabie brick-
layer, •rho and a stable in the same yard, opposite
to Mr. Fag's. Oney was Saddwin's man, and Carr
seal h.eraekeeperto Mr. Fag.
In addition to what had taken place on the former
examination, Mr. John Miller, clerk to Mr. Fag.
deposed. that frequent depredations of this nature
having been committed, and suspicion falling on
some of the Prisoners, be determined to watch their
motions; and accordingly, on Thursday morning
bat, before six o'clock, he took his station opposite
the yard-gate. He soon after observed Oney kni.ck
at the gate, and call Baldwin, who got up ; Oney
lighted a candle, and they both went into Kalil% in's
stable. Immediately after, oat came Carr friar Mr.
Fag% stables, crissed over to Baldwin's, and got
his calcite lighted. in the mean time, the Witness
slipped into the stable, and secreted himself ; Cart
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 whom he gave it. The
Witness then discovered himself to them, and seized
Baldwin. There were other persons in the stable,
but he could not swear to any of them but Bald-
win, Carr, and Oney.
The hag and corn were produced, and proved by
Mr. Fag, to be his property ; also an empty beg,
which was found in Baldwin's house, to which he
positively swore. The corn was mixed with beans.
peas. and chaff, and proved to be of the value of I sd.
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 a principal in the theft,
but only an accessa: y, after the fa!! was committed;
he was upon his own premises at the tine-, where
he had a right to be ; he therefore submitted, he
might be discharged upon bail ; lie was a man of
respeCtability, his reputation was called in question,
and several persons of known responsibility attended
to give security.
The Sireirao M4GISTR AT t thought, on the con-
trary, that the whole was a premeditated plan be-
tween the parries, and he therefore felt himself
•. justified in fully committing them for trial, which
f. was accordingly done.
,ch As to the boy Stephenson, it appeared, by the
aer testimony of Jahn 'nett, the oticer, who was so
on 'Five in the apprehension of all the parties, that
when he went to take up Oney, the boy ran away,
et on he fndowed, and took him into custody, when the
boy seemed to know the buainess perfettly well.

WILTS QUARTER SESSIONS.
The General Quarter Sessions of the Peace, .for
the county of Wilts, were last week held at De-
vizes.
John .4rd was inclined on the Statute 6 Geo. 111.
for cropping an spoiling timber trees, in the palish
of Bradford, belonging to John William Yerhury,
Esq. in the night home, which mikes the iffence fe-
lony, and empowers tLi- Court to transport for
seven years : the Jury returned a vertliel of GsiO,:.
when Mr. Yesseav addressed the Court, stating,
that as Thomas Hinter (who wit inclined with
Aust, but had for the preser.t escaped from justice)
appeared to he the principal offender, and most de- ,
serving of exemplary punishment, he wistietl merely
that the present convinion might deter others
from offences of this kind, by doing away a mis-
taken notion among the lower orders of people,
that they are liable to no ether punishment than a
small fine. , This humane recommendation the
Court attended to, and sentenced the Prisoner to
only six monthi imprisonment, instead of the heavy
punishment of transportation.
Themes Dir, .I.pries Die, and ,fohn Dati,, were
indined 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 justi. e. It appeared, that the Prisoners had
been out i,,dheir vocalism, late at night, with three
terrier Jogs; and the noise made by Mrs. Flower's
poultry having alarmed the family, they were pur-
sued, and at length taken into custody ; but the
persons who first pursued them were so severely
beaten, and bitten by the ter iers, as to be left cease-
less. From these aggravating circumstances, they
were sentenced to six months imprisonment; ere
In the cells at Fisherton Gaol, and the other in site
cells at Devizes Bridewell.

Tria. Leevreare and John Revel, indiAed by di-
reetioa of the Admiralty Board, for assaulting a
serjeant of marines, when on duty in the recruiting
service, were found Guilty, and sentenced to he
imprisoned, and to find sureties for their good be-
haviour ; but. by consent of the Court and Prose-
cutor, they were allowed to enlist into the Royal

LIEI)S, Jan. IS.

On Monday last, at the quarter Sessions for this
Flomugh, ;PiNees Pens, of %Vondhouse, clothier,
as ciontie-duf stealing a silver pint, the property of
:`•!:-. Strickland, innkeeper, of this town, and sen-
n.a.sed to be transported for seven years.
Harri;on, Joseph RocCr*, and Jule Syker,
guard ruo to an indiament charging them with
our tssault, and were sentenced to one month's int-
prisesnment.
Matthetie Briefley, and Joie Barret,
1111 of Royds, near Beeston, were charged with
issembling in a uotous manner, near the dwelling-
haute of John Hetherington, cf Royds; and also
with throwing stone', and breaking his triodes'''.
'l'nis trial occupied the Court several hours.—The
%Witnesses were numerous, and, in many important
particulas, flatly contradifted each other ; to one
side or other, the Ruth of wtlfal perjury must be
attached. The Juts, found all the Defendants
Gat;!tv.
The ACCOPDV.R. after expressing his abhorrence
of the pt!jury which had been resorted to, serrate ni
R. Ellis t., six months imprisonment; and Matt.
Bradley and John Ellis, to fourteen days imprison-
ment in the linuse of Correftion at Wakefiel 3. The
two latter were childrta, apparently not mote than
IR years te: age.
Seem! MO4, clothier, of Wortley, was indifted
for breaking tha window of Cooper, of Wort-
ley. The Prosecutor stated, that on the evening of
Sunday, the ttd of September, abort ltalf-past nine
o'clock, he saw the Prisoner approach his house,
and after coming 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 im-
mediately retired. Four witnesses were called for
the Defendant, who, if their testimony had been
credited, would have sufficiently established an ebbi.
The Jury found the Defendant Civilly, but judg-
ment was respited, on a point of law, until the next
Sessions.
Jules Whitaker, of Armley, was found Gaut!,
of an assault un Crabtree, of the same plac f„
and sentenced to one month's imprisonment.
Several of these assaults having arisen out of the
unhappy d.ffetence which lately existed amongst
the master: and workmen engaged in the woollen
manufaCSuire, the trials, in consequence, excited
mach interest. and the Court was unusually crowded.
The Ricoausa, adverting to these differences,
said, that it was the determination of the Court, to
punish, with the utmost rigour, all offences origin-
ating in unlawful comhinations.
