CRIMINAL COURT-(THIS DAY.)

OLD COURT.

Mary Ann Bigivell, 24, was indicted for stealing, on the
2d.June, in the parish of Marylebone, two sovereigns, two
shillings, and a Bank-note, value 101., of Henry Hall, her
master, in his dwelling-house.

The Jury found the prisoner Guilty. The prosecutor
recommended her to mercy, and the Court directed him to
forward anything he had to mention to the advantage of
the prisoner to the Secretary of State.
William Deane was indicted for stealing, on the Ist June,
in the parish of Marylebone, two chissels, one saw, and one
hammer, the property of William Ramidge, his master.
The tools had been taken from the prosecutor's workshop,
and were found in the prisoner's lodgings.—Not Guilty.

Mr. Justice COLTMAN took his seat on the bench at ten
o'clock.

Charles Neweonze, 19, was indicted for forging and
uttering on the 19th of May, in the parish of St. Saviour's,
Southwark, a bill of exchange for 251., with the intent of
defrauding Messrs. Barclay and Co., brewers. The pri-
soner was also indicted for a similar offence with the intent
of defrauding Messrs. Cherrington and Co., Mile-end-road.
After Mr. BODKIN had stated the case to the Jury,
Mr. C. PHILLIPS, on the part of the prisoner, applied
to the Court to allow him to put in a plea of Guilty, as be
had acted under the influence of other parties.
The COURT said that in such cases it was usual to have
the consent of the prosecutor. However, it would be re-
quisite to examine witnesses to prove that the instruments
in question were forgeries.
After the necessary witnesses had been examined for that
purpose, the prisoner was removed from the Bar.

MISSING WHALERS.
(Extract from the agent at Sligo, dated June 14.)
" The Advice from Davis' Straits to Dundee arrived in
this harbour last night in a deplorable state. Out of a crew
of 47, which sailed from Dundee, five only have arrived with
her, two of whom have been sent to the Hospital. The
Advice took on board from the Thomas, of Dundee, twelve
persons, including the master and the surgeon, all of whom
died, except the two latter, and the Advice would have be-
come at total loss had it not been that twe seamen volunteered
to go oa board from a vessel bound from Liverpool to Ame-
rica, at a time when the masters, officers, and remainder of
the crew had made up their minds to abandon her; but they
were deterred from doing so by this timely assistance. The
Advice has only two fish and about 20 tons of oil."
