WESTMINSTER SESSIONS, OCT. 24.

-Alexander Farrell, and - Pope, were indiaed
.stealing iron, bars., from a house in jerrnyn-
,
street, neat ot.James's-market: The house from
ffhichthe bars were taken, had formerly been -the,
Gun Taiern, but the proprietor; a French Erni-
grant,-; had been ordered to
.quitthe kingdom se_
veral years ago, and it had remained unoccupied
ever since : the Prisoners, of Course,
,thought, as
it was uninhabited, there could be no'bccasion for
iron bars to keep thieves. out, ,and accordingly they
set to work to wrench them up. Unfortunately for
them, the Patrol, wile; was going his rounds, spied
them ; he:was fearffil of attacking theni, ,and went
to the vVatch-liouse. for his partner. When they
returned, his 'partner observed the Prlson,ers were
two strong fellows,'and might " ibrzo afis.-ht,''
'and theretbte it. would, be Jretter to haNee. a third
man with- them. This Was' agreed .to„ and three
watchmen were chosen to take 'the Prisoners, who
were still busy, Farrell "at pulling the bars-up, and
Pope at, carrying them off, and hiding them behind
a place. where- shutters, were kept. The Officers-
seized and' conveyed them to the watch-house; and
the bars behind the' shutters were fOund, and upOrf
being applied to the area of 'the house, "fitted exan.:
ly. One bar was found in Pope's pocket.
Pope in his defence, declared, that he .bad been
•great part of his life at sea ; that he was an in-
riutrious„ pains-taking 'man, and worked night and
day for his living ; that upon the night of the.
robbery, !u, had bee,n upon a visit to one of As
companions, who lived ley Oxford-road, and com-
ing back,he had found, the iron bar, which, he had
put in hi's pocket, to restore to the right owner in
ease he:shotild ever meet with hini.---Part of this
defence was,strielly true,: for it appeared from the
information of the Officers, he was a common thief,
and had been twice'fransPortedbeyond.sea:

Farrell, who was.a_Soldier in the Ist Regiment
of Guards, handed up a written defence, which
stated his innocence, and that -he Inew nothing of
the other Prisoner.—His §erieant. and- several per-
sons gave him a good charaCter, and proved that,
except in this instance, he had concluded himself
as an honest man and a good Soldier.
The Court told Pope, he was too old an offender
to expert any Mercy. His sentence was,• that he
should be again transported 107 seven years.

As to Farrell, the Court, in consideration of the
charaEter given him, and in hopes that he would
avoid such company as = the Prisoner's in future,
sentenced him to two Months.imprisonment.

fortis, all which, though. the cried-up neztrdrns .of
the day, and used by many physicians called emi-.
nent, frequently leave such diseases as at-6. found too
deep rooted for common skill to remove, aided by
all the Materia Medica or the newfangled philOso-
. phy of the day. The Anti-Impetigines Alas been
found to answer. those very purposes; in radically
curing, in the-most effe6lual manner, such diseases
as mercury, antimony, and aqua fortis to boot, have.
been tried to subdue, and which, from 1, experi-
ence and evidence of fats," are known onlyTto give
a temporary relief, at the expence of the patients'
constitution. - Dr. Nisbett says, " from, all my
-experience, the application of medicine in the gacc-
.ous form has not been sufficiently permanent, even
-when successful, to continue a lasting cure-.
