On ...... .......examinstion witness admitted. after sh• was
knocked down, sne attempted to throw a pail of water over the de-
tendant.

Mr. Merritt, a surgeon, deposed to the nature of the injury sus-
tained by the prosecutrix. She miscarried, end was confined to
her bed in consequence of the ill-treatment she had received.
For th 4 defence it was given in evidence, by Cloose, Mr. Molt's
porter, that as the prosecutrix was passing, she received a slight
and accidental blow from the ladder: Defendant begged the pro-
secnirix's pardon. Prosecutrix turned round, and struck William
Molt, who pushed her away. She rammed, and threw a pail of
water over defendant twice, and finally pitched the pail at his head.
Win. Molt did not strike the prosecutrix. He was dripping wet
from head to foot.
Thomas Molt, defendant's brother, gave a similar account of
the transaction. Defendant was wet all over, as everybody must
hare perceived, for he was in his shirt sleeves.
Thomas Meedy, a hair dresser, deposed to having seen the pro-
secutrix on the Monday after the accident (it. occurred on a Friday)
fighting with a man in the street. Shortly after witness saw her
attack the same man with a bayonet, and throw a pail of water
over him. This was about three or four o'clock of the sth of Sep-
tember. (The assault occurred on the 2d.)
The CHAIRMAN summed up, leaving it to the Jury to decide
between the conflicting testimony.
Kat Guilty.
Caleb Hackman and Pace Saint were indicted far an assault on
John Clayton, on the 2d of July, in the parish of St. Matthew,
Bethnal-green.
It appeared that as the prosecutor was passing along the street,
on the 2d of July, the defendant Saint struck him twice. Heck-
man joined in the assault, and was assisted by his brother, who has
absconded. Defendants all owed witness a spite, in consequence
of his prosecuting a person nameo Taylor for a felony.
On his cross examination by Mr. HALCOMI, the prosecutor

. --
admitted he bad bean tried at the Old Bailey. It occurred in
1817, through his keeping such company as those at the bar. (A
laugh.) It was for a highway robbery. Witness offered to fight
one ofthem, but was not able to tackle-fu with three. This was after
he had been beat. Taylor, whom lie prosecuted at the Old Bailey,
was acquitted. Ile had not been often before a Magistrate laying
informations; not ten times.
Mr. lIALcoMa told the Jury he should call evidence to pose
that the prosecutor had challenged the defendants to fight. Ho
was farther prepared, if necessary, to prove, by respectable teed.
many, that Clayton was not worthy of belief on his oath.
Teo witnessed proved the.prosecutor offered to tight the defend-
ants. He had no appearance of having been beaten at that time.
Henry Rice, a patrol of Bethnal-green—l know Clayton, and do
not consider him a person to be believed on his oath.
Samuel Basingbani-1 would not believe the prosecutor on oath.
I wish he was out of the neighbourhood. I have bailed young
men more than once from whom he attempted to extort money.
The Jury found both prisoners Gai/ty.
The prosecutor begged leave to be heard. His life was in day.
gee in the neighbourhood, through no fault of his, for he had per.
sons ready to speak to his character. However, he wished to re.
commend Caleb Hackman to mercy, on the ground of his having a
family.
The Cwaittware=Prisoners, what do you say ?
' Ilacktnan—We are poor working men, your Worship, and not
able to pay a large fine.
The CHAIRMAN—Then, perhaps, you prefer going to prison ?
Hackman—We get our bread by hard labour, rt,od don't wish to
go to prison ; but hope you will impose a trifling fine.
The CIIAIRMANU'eII, speak to the prosecutor ; try and settle
it with him, and I'll hear what he says. 1 can say no more ; and
perhaps we go too far in these matters, by permitting compositions
to take place. I apprehend that practice occasions many cases to
be brought here that otherwise would not.
The prisoners were put aside; but, as it afterwards appeared,
the prosecutor consented to receive St. as a peace offering, and they
were ordered to be discharged on payment of that sum.

SURREY SESSIONS, TitEsnAY, OCT. 25.
David Davies, a middle-aged man of a respectable appearance.
was indicted tor having_ endeavoured to entice a Custom-house
officer, of the name of King, to defraud the revenue by making
false entries._

I t appeared that on the 16th of,April last, King was sent on
board the Alert, a vessel that had arrived from Caernarvon with
• cargo of slates. and was then laying at a wharf below London.
bridge. The officer was first addressed by a man named Griffiths,
against whom, however, there was not sufficient evidence to lead to
a conviction. Griffiths asked King if he had before delivered any
slate vessels ? King replied, that he had. " Oh, then," said
Griffith, "you know your business," accompanying the remark
with a significant nei.. After Griffiths departed, the prisoner Da-
vies went on board the vessel, and asked King to omit some of the
tallies of the slates, assuring him that he would arrange with him
on the subject. The officer had previously stated his suspicions
to his superior, who directed him to do what he was bid, in order
that the malpractices might be discovered. King therefore asked
Davies how many he should omit, and he was told 5,000, the
duty ou which would hare amounted to 141. When the officer was
about to leave the vessel, the prisoner informed him that he should
have his share of the profits when the blue book pawed.
The prisoner made no defence.
He was found guilty, and sentenced to pay a fine of 201... and be
imprisoned for fourteen days in the !louse of Correction at
Brixton.

Edward Laurence and George Chick were indicted for stealing
a great coat, value 21., the property of Richard Ilindson.
Smith, servant to Mr. Ilindson, deposed, that on the
Bth of the present month he soy the prisoner Laurence on the top
of his master's wall, when he took a box-coat from his master's
cbaite and threw it down to Chick, who ran away with it. The
witness ran after Chick, and seised hini after he had dropped the
coat; .eitneu saw him all the way he ran, with the coat on his
shoulder. Witness then picked up the coat, and both the pri-
soners were secured.
_ . . .

The prisoner Laurence said, that when he heard a cry of " stop
thief," and saw Chick running oft; he followed him, and was
taken.
Both prisoners were reputed thieves, and had been frequently in-
mates of the House of Correction at Brixton.

They were severalty sentenced to seven yean' transportation.
Willino liometiedge was indicted for feloniously embezzling
the sum of Hi. 145., the property of George NV inter and Geo. Rich,
received by him as their clerk.
Mr. George Winter deposed that he is sn ironmonger, and that
she prisoner vas in his employ fix upwards of three years. Within
the last year his employment was to collect money. A person of
the name of 'looms was indebted to witness in the sum of II!. 148.,
which the prisoner was directed to obtain, but which he had never
paid to witness, or to his partner, Mr. Rich.
Mr. George Tows deposed, that in September last he paid the
prisoner the sum of lit. 14s. fur Messrs. Winter and Rich, and took
his receipt fur that sum.
The prisoner, whose appearance was very respectable, addressed
the Court. He said, that what lie was about to mate was not for
the purpose of doing away the verdict, which he felt enured must
be pronounced against him, but tar the purpose of inducing a more
lenient sentence than in the strict letter of the law might be
awarded to him. Before he entered the service of the prose-
cutor, he had been eighteen or twenty months out of employ, and
during that period he had no means of existing except by small
sums borrowed, and by disposing of his clothes. The income he
received, while in the prosecutor's employment, was 30s. • week,
but he had out of that sum been enabled to pay many of his debts
by instalments. Several of his creditors, however, after waiting foe
two years, became impatient, and his only prospect was a gaol. He
was. therefore, tempted, improperly and imprudently, to use big
employer's money, although at the time he was resolved to rya,
them, and would have done so had not a discovery taken piwie.
Altogether, he had kept boa 201. but the greater portion of die
NUM he subsequently repaid, and meant to repay it all. As a
that lie so intended, he would observe, that he frequently had
larger sums of his master's in his hands, which he might have kept
back. He seldom ate for his breakfast more than a small loaf, and
bread and cheese for his dinner, as he was resolved to lire most
ecunomically until all his debts were paid. lie hoped the Court
would consider those circumstances and be merciful to him, for he
was now 66 years of age. He had been misled by the hope that
the prosecutor would not have proceeded, and had not, therefore,
provided himself with witnesses as to his character, which before
thin unhappy circumstance was irreproachable.
The Jury returned a verdict Guilty, but recommended him to
mercy ; and the Foreman said that he happened often to have met
the prisoner when at his dinner, and he observed that it was always
on bread and cheese. -
The CLASH MAN said, that under all the circumstances of the

AIANSION-HOUSE.

James Wallis, alias Watkins, who was some time ago charged
with committing a felony, by appropriating to his own use 851.
10s. the property of Messrs. Todd, of Fore-street, which had been
intrusted to ham as petty cash, was brought up for another examin-
ation. The money had been put into his possession, at eight
o'clock in the morning, and at nine, he disappeared, without making
any acknowledgment. When Ole officer apprehended him, he ad-
mitted, after a slight attempt at evasion, that he was the person
sought after. " I came," said the officer, "after that 2001. which
you took from your masters." " You are wrong," replied the
prisoner, " h bad no more than 1101. altogether." The prisoner was
fully committed.
HATTON-GARDEN.
James Baines and William Harper wek yesterday brought up,
in the custody of Waddington and Keys, two of the Bow-street
patrol, for, picking the pocket of Mr. Atkinson Brown of •sk
handkerchief.
Mr. Brown deposed, that on Monday evening, as he came out of
an Ironmonger's shop in Holborn, near Gray's Inn Coffee-house,
be felt something drawn from his pocket, and on looking suddenly
round lie perceived the prisoners close behind him, and his hand-
kerchief lying in the kennel, which he immediately picked up sad
gave the prison's' in charge.
Waddington stated that he saw the complainant come out of the
shop, and observed the primer Harper point at the handkerchief
hanging out of the pocket to Jathes Haines, who immediately
drew it out, and on complainant looking round, dropped it into the
gutter, from which Mr. Brown picked it up and, anti gave the pri-
soners in charge : and while at the watehhouse delivered the hand-
kerchief in question to him (Waddington).
Keys confirmed the last witness's statement, and added, that
on searching Harper at the watchhouse, he found three silk
handkerchiefs round his neck, and in his pocket a screw-driver.
The prisoners being called on for their defence, Haines firmly
denied the charge, and hoped, that as his father was a very re-
spectable man (we understood him to say connected with Sad-
ler s Wells Theatre) that the Magistrate would believe him to be
innocent.

Harper also solemnly declared his innocerce, and positively
asserted that lie was totally unacquainted whir his fellow-pri•
goner. He stated that he had a regular employ in the gas works,
and is in the habit of wearing a couple of silk handkerchiefs
round his neck ; the third, he said, he bought for five shillings of
a seafaring man, and considering he would look well in it, he put
it on.

The prisoners were immediately conveyed to Clerkenwell Ses-
sions-house, before the firand Jury, who are now sitting.
QUEEN-SQUARE.
Yesterday Mr. Alillett, the gardener, residing at Fulham, ap-
peared before Mr. GREGORIE, the sitting Magistrate, on behalf of
John Ryan, the man who attempted to shoot the two Bow-street
patrol on Sunday evening. Mr. :Milieu admitted that the accused
was in his employ, and had been so for two years. Hewes a faith-
ful, honest, and industrious servant. lie did not deny his being fur-
nished with hire-arms and a stick, to guard his grounds, upon
which depredations had been committed to a considerable extent ;
but since be had watched there, nothing of the kind had occurred.
It seemed that on Wednesday last Ryan's wife, who was a total
stranger in this country, came to Fulham, from Ireland, bringing
with her a family of fair children, and on Sunday last a merry-
making took-place between him and some friends, when two bottler
of Irish whisky were drank among them, of which his man par-
toon too freely, for when the officers saw him he could not be
watching his Me. Al.'s grounds, as he was a mile distance from the
premises. With the exception of this instance he was a very
sober man, had been in his employ fur two years, and always con-
ducted himself with the strictest propriety.
GILEGOUIE.—I presume you will become responsible for
his future good behaviour.

The accused man was then set at liberty, and after a severe lec-
ture from his master, ordered to go home to his family.

amount to 2,484 bales."
SUGAR.-The Sugar market remained in a very depressed stars
during all the last week, and towards the close some of the holders
became so anxious to effect sales, that they oflerred parcels at a re.
donjon of about 2s. per cwt.; some brown Jamaica sold at 681.
The Sugar market this morning opened with a very heavy appear.

COFFEE.-There were rather extensive public sales of Coffee
brought forward last week, and considerable purchases were re.,
ported at lower prices ; an extensive parcel of good ordinary Brazil
555. and 555. 6d. ; a parcel from Hamburg!, at 54a. ; an extensive
quantity of fair quality St. Domingo sfis. Gd. There were no
public sales this forenoon ; the request by private contract rather

The good Oude sold from is. a 2.. per lb., and the ordinary and

proprietors, The broken and mixed descriptions usually bought
by the customers having sold at extravagant prices, the home trade
have this sale chiefly supplied themselves from the good and mid.

The public sales of Friday and this afternoon, consisting of
Guatemala and Caraceas Indigo, went off freely at the previous
prices.
FRUIT.-Two public sales were brought forward on Wedcea.

was very considerable ; the prices conurue to improve ; several
parcels of under proof Leeward, are reported at 2s, 2 and 1 over

CORONER'S INQUEST.
On Monday evening, at seven' clock, an inquest was held at the
Old Southampton Arms, Tottenham-court.road, before Thumu
Stirling. Esq. to inquire into the death of Mrs. Mary Combey.
Mr. James Corsbey, coachtnaker, of No. 20, Southaniptomstreet,
stated, that on Friday last he came borne to hls dinner shortly before
' two o'clock, and found the deceased, who was his mister-imlaw,
sitting at the dinner table ; she seemed heavy, and looked as if she
was in 41 state of intoxication, she asked him the hour ? Ile replied,
"ten minutes to two," and comtnenced eating his dinner; and on
raising his head in a few moments, he perceived the deceased had
had fallen back in her chair, she at the time having sorne potato! In
her hand, and some food in her mouth, being in the act of raising
her hand to her head when the death blow came upon her. lie, with
his wife, approached her, and finding her insensible, tan out for
medical assistance, and also apprized the husband of deceased of her
situation. Dr. Million and another medical gentleman attended,
and rendered every assistance, administering a strong emetic and
other powerful antidotes, but of no possible avail. She had evidently
suddenly expired. She was 44 years of age. The witness believed
that she had died in a state of excessive intoxication, from the use
of spiritous liquors.
Etizahttli Corsbey, the wife of list atoms. confirmed') his ca-
dence.

Richard Corsbey, the husband of deceased, said he wee in.
formed of the state of his wife by his brother. She had every me-
dical aid procured for her, but of no avail. lie had seen her about
half an hour before she went to his brother's. She was then, be
was sorry to confess, in a state of intoxication.
Mr. Robert Blee, assistant to Mr. Robins. surge in, of Tot.
tenham-court-road, staled that he had found the deceased in the
apartments of James Corabey. in a chair, quite dead; he, by re-
quest of the persons present, used every eon in his power without
success.
Mr. John Hellion, of Conway-street, Fitzroy-square, attended
the deceased, being informed she had poisoned herself; he had
examined the body, and there were no appearances of violence.
After a very long and protracted discussion the Jury found the
verdict of " Died by the Visitation of God." The inquest lasted
six how/.
