Read :

" I lived with Mr. Mortlock three years„ as shopman, and
left him Iwo years and a half ago. Fur nearly two years I ►ave
been in the habit of receiving various dessert china sets, tea
services, and one dialler service, from Daniel Gentle. I used
to go after the shop was shut, and was let in by Gentle;
I used to tie up as much as I could in a handkerchief, sad
take them away at different times.---(Here the confession
goes on to stale the names of the persons to whom the stoles

will convey to the public some idea of the crimes
for which they suffered.
Haut, Hughes, and Eaton, were three of the
band of highway robbers that infested the Edgeware,
Harrow, ■nd Acton roods, during the last autumn,
and pillaged and cruelly treated so many indivi-
duals. They were taken by four police officers,
after a desperate resistance, near Kilburn %Veils,
and were all found armed with loaded pistols,
and oilier offensive weapons. Eight indictments
were found against them.

Godwin was the leader of a numerous gang of
house-breakers residing in Nurth-place. Penton-
•ille. Several of his companions in guilt had already
been the victims of their crimes, but Godwin far a
considerable time eluded the vigilance of the police.
Ile warn, however, at length taken at a public-house
near Old-street. in the act of celebrating the ac-
quittal of one of his comrades. In his house was
found property of various descriptions, which was
identified by the persons whose houses and shops
had been broken into. There were no less than
twelve indictments found against him..—Scott was
convicted of having stabbed and cot in • dread-
ful manner • watchman who endeavoured to
apprehend him while breaking into a house
in Dean-street, Soho. The rapid increase of
street robberies, and the aggravating circunistancea
under which the above offences were committed.
demanded the strict execution of the law clothed
in all its terrors.—The crimes of Gentle and Read
were a flagrant breach of trust, committed on the
property of Mr. Mortlock, who keeps an extensive
chins-warehouse. Gentle was employed in his
service at the time of his detection. and Read laid
been in the same capacity some time previous.
Boni of them acted in combination in the plunder
of their master for a period of nearly two yeas.,
during which time property to a large amount had
been purloined. The discovery of the system of
pillage that had been so long continued was at et-
dentally made by Mr. Mortlock. who observed
part of his goods in a pawnbroker's shop for sale.
Considering the nonsense ■mount of property of
every description which in this commercial city is.
of necessity. intrusted to clerks and servants of
every kind. or placed within their reach, it is not
surprising that offences involving so serious • breach
of confidence ►hould be visited and repressed by
the heaviest penalties. It is hoped that the awful ex-
ample which the death of these unhappy delin-
quents is so calculated to inspire will have a wan-
tary effect, and make • sole 1111 l impression upon the
young and unwary, and the lower classes of society
in general.

eagerly pursued Inns down Suusii.place, and orri.eiy

for no other reason than that he was supposed to
entertain a different opinion from themselves re.
specong the guilt of the Queen. The dastardly •ob,
not cosSeut with these intlegintieli, at length pro-

tended by three constables, and the hut-and-cry was
then raised after them iu the same manlier that *e
have described above, all the way to Witham Green,
to the terror of the peaceable inhabitants of the
surds through which they passed.
Several respectable Gentlemen. who offered their
assistance to Mr. Kirby, and end red to culti-
vate him from the mob, were also indisosiitty
treated, seine being bespattered with mud, some
pushed down, and others taunted with the cn• of
" Spies, spies !" Fortunately no material injury
was done to any of the persons thus assailed ; and
as it was day-light, many of these lawless fellows
were recognized as old Utfenders iu this way, and
we hope they will be justly punished for their infa-
mous conduct. On Saturday the Mayor and Ma-
gistrates met again to investigate this disgraceful
proceeding, when warrants were Potted against L.

AFFLICTING DIIIIMNSATION.—An aecideht pie.
e•harly distressing, happened on Wednesday the
11th inst. in the town of Pulteney. Sometime in
the forenoon. Messrs. Jeduthan
Night', Esq. Jooa-
than %Vales, George Cooper, Noble Sweet, and
Chancey Phelps, left Prattsburgh Centre in • wag.
gon. for the purpose of attending x Justice's Court
in the north part of Puhenry. The wind was
tremendous, and large trees were turn up by the
roots or twisted from their trunks and fulling in cl
directions. Just as they were passing from a piece
of woods into • small clearing, a large walnut tree
standing in a field near the road was torn up by the
whirlwind, and fill in the direction of the waggon.
The driver, sensible of the danger. whipped his
horses to escape. but unfortunately drove so Ls to
bring the centre of the waggon immediately snider
the falling tree—it fell—but a tear into'uLtanly
drops as we attempt to paint the dreadful revue
which ensued. Cooper, a lad of about 16, was
killed ins.tantansoasly--'Squireffighy rut vi tied about
three hours—Mr. Wales only three quarters of an
hour—both senseless. Thus were three souls cut
off in health and happiness, and ushered into an-
other and • better world. It was a sudden and aw.
ful transition. In one moment they were revelling
in all their earthly enjoyments, and looking forward
with joyful anticipation of the future ; but iii the
next, the whirlwind came, and in its fury wafted
their souls to the veiled labyriiitlis of eternity.
They were buried on the 15th inst. fodowed by a
concourse of nearly 500 people. 'Squire fligby
was about 45 years of age, Mr. Wales about 30.
Pholps received some injury to his arni—and Sweet,
a slight wound in his forehead.—(lkew York
