I:coecath6r.—Ttiesday. Mr. Blown of Fleet-market, ap-
plied to the Lord alay or for information in what mautier to
proceed against a gentlemen of large fortune, also resides in
Wolverlianiptou, and has destroy ed the happito ss of a family
by atealing away one of the female members of it. The
young lady is 18, the 111411 upwards of
file Lord Mayor said, he had waited 111 analety to hear the
result of the application he had suggested in private to Mr.
Brown, and the father of the young lady. All that he could
do iu this adhering 41141 r shoinld he lane ; and if the acetified
was in the City of Loudon, lie should be responsible at a mu-
nient's warning.
Mr. Brown said, the only addition he had to make to the ae.
count stated in private, was the melancholy one, that the
mother of the young lady was 011 her death bed ; that her
malady was a broker heart, indicted by. the Pt tot, and that
knoll was added to the irreparable injury the had
already sustained.
The Lord Mayor.--You told me that the man.to whom the
family owed all these obligations was lately.couceined in All
affair which I eflected the greatest Swoons. upon I —that in
which the inaalittants of Wolverhampton were SO much in.
ferreted. 'Luse you any doubt us; to the identity of this be-
nevolent person
Mr. Brown.—None: the father of the lady mentioned to
sae his suspicious of this gentleman, and put her tinder my
ea re. She is my wifes near relation, and received front both
of us the most earliest entreaties to guard against his sulici-
tationa. I know that he was one of the advocates of two
pour men who were condemned to die, and that at the
very time lie pretended to be so deeply interested in the
cause of humanity, he was planning the destruction of Miss
Jackson.
.1 lie Lord Mayor.—l wish above all things to serve you in
this case of extremity. Have you such evideuce as may an
thoriae me to issue a warrant?
Mr. Brown.-1 apprehend nut, my Lord. I have no wit-
ness to prove that she went off with him, or that she was seen

ship takes of this plan of iniquity. I saw the seducer in a
hotel opposite lo my house holding up a letter, evidently to
catch the eye of Miss Jackson, which cireunistauce con
itected with hia former practice of following her wherever
she went, coatis toed me lit the opinion that lie took her away.
The medical attendant upon her mother, whose deplorable
state is to ne attributed to this event, called upon this man to
beg for the love 01 Heaven that lac would give back the child
of whom Ins patient had been robbed, as the only means of
presets nig her life. 'llse roomer was, that he was really
sorry, and would convey to the daughter a letter from father
or mother with imuctitality, but as to her restoration not the
slighest hope was held out.
The Lord Mayor.-1 regret more than I can express that
this case dues nut come tinder my authority. 1 should punish
such villainy with the utmost severity. A public exposure
may at any rate he expected here. Are the tugitives now in
London? If so, 1 shtall grant a warrant.
Mr. Brown said, the men was certainly at Wolverhampton.
Mr. Hobler suggested that a habeas should be immediately
served upou
The Lord Mayor. —That is the most advisable course. It
is only necessary to make affidavit of the facts you have
stated, and to procure au affidavit of the medical luau's de.
claration, in order to übtaiu a habeas. If contempt follow.
the hand of Lord Ebenborough will bill with a great weight
upon him.
Mr. Brown seemed delighted with this intelligence. He
presented from the father of the girl a letter of thanks. it
consisted principa'ly of incoherent remarks upon the loss of
his child, the dispair of Ida wife, and his own feelings, mid
410 entreaty to the Lord Mayor.
The Lord Mayor observed, that if any feeling was to be
food in the seducer, that letter would bring it furvnerd. He
desired to lie informed of the consequence of the summary
proceeding lie now recommended.
On Thursday, Mr. Pearsall of Clicapside, stated to the
Lod Mayor, that lie had seen au acomit of a distressing case
of Reduction, in which it was mentioned, that a peraou rest_
ding at Woke' hamptuti, and who had exerted himself in lilt
Case 01 two men lately convicted at the Stafford assizes, WAS
Colletl used. In the report of the circumstances connected
with that case, the names of two gentlemen, of highly re•
spectahle characters, wet e mentioned; the one the Reverend
Air. Garde ; the other Mr. Mender, a relative of Mr. Pears-
all. It was due to the characters of these gentlemen, who
took so prominent and sincere a part in the prevention of an
unmerited I *shmeut, to declare that the charge of so un-
principled a transaction was very remote from application to
either of them.
111 r. Brown, from whose house the yonug lady had been
taken. was at this moment iu the justice room; for the pen pose
of procuring the aSSlStallee of au officer, to search a house
iu Northampton square, where it was positively asserted she
was concealed. Resent the gentlemen just spoken of were
by no means 'alluded tuba the account he had given. He had
never heat d of their names moil that musing, when one of
them called upon hint fur 101.0r111A11011 upon the stilkaect. With
the name and person of the seducer he was well aellllBllllCll
for sometime, and the public would one day have a ler
litowledge.
