THE DOG OF MONTARGIS RIVALLED !--Yester-
day Robert King was eharged.by James Bloom-
field, of the re4thers, Broadway, Westminster,
on suspicion of having rubbed bins of 24 bottles
of wine, &c.

The Patrole stated, that as he was going his
rounds yesterday Jmorning, about half-past four
o'clock, accompanied, as usual, by his tlog, his
faithful companion began to growl at a man ‘v how
they met, and whom lie in consequence followed,
knowing the superior intelligence of the dog.—
As " master and man" were thus travelling
along, the dog, ceased to follow the suspi-
cious stranger, and made a full stop at the cel-
lar-doer of the Feather's public-house, and be-
gan to growl and grumble more furiously and
intelligenly than ever. Convinced that all was
not right from this circumstance, the patrole pro-
ceeded to call the watch and to alarm the house,
and the house was afterwards searched, but, in
vain, for a considerable time. The conduct of
the dog, however, being, to the patrnle, " con-
t.niatint. strong as proof of holy writ," be would

not give up the Search ; and at last there %vas (us-
covered itt the tellar a man, secreted behind two
beer butts ;. that man was the prisoner at the bar;
and on further search the wine was missed.

Mr. Cpt..atinoti N agreed that the suspicion n►nst
be strong enough, although nothing had been
found on the Iprisoner ; anti he should therefore
teniandlg for a week, to citable Mr. Bloom-
Meld to make enquiry. With te.,Tect to the evi-
►lence, as the patrole -had so much relied on the
dog, and. as " niy dog' begun and finished every
sentence, it might be desirable to know whether
the pati•ole wished the Flog to be examined.—Re-
manded lot a Iveek.

ROBBERY .—Mark Marks, a converted Jew,
taken up a week ago, on suspicion of have robbed
Mr. Pope, of York-street, Westminster, was again
examined ; but 110 direct evidence against him
could be adduced. llr. Izod, of the Strand, said,
that he had been robbed of two such silk hand-
kerchief as were found in Marks possession ; atql
he had never sold Marks the new napkins as re-
presented. Mr. Bayley knew the prisoner, and
had every reason to believe him to be a very bad
character, and that he had fobbed him very con-
siderably. Mr. Day said, Marks once was a
" day and night auctioneer in 'Long-acre.
Committed to' be brought up again on Thurs-
day next.
MANSION-1101'SE.

Pah ick Mitthell, late Serjeant-Major in the
-East India Company's service, and now 'a la-
bourer in the warehouses, was charged by O'Cal-
lan, a felbaw labourer, and late private in the
same regiment, with a violent assault, and threat-
-ening to stab him with a knife. Shaw, the land-
lord of the Bull's [lead, Leadenhall-street, stated,
that the parties came to his house on their arrival
from India, and- had since continued to lodge
with him. They had frequent • quarrels' which
at first alarmed him; hut he. thought lightly of
them until Wednesday last, when he was appre-
hensive of murder. The prisoner did not attempt
to justify his conduct upon any other ground than
that of being violently provoked. The prosecutor
had that morning challenged him to fight with
sword or pistol, but as he had neither, he Offered
to 'face him with a knife; and would assuredly
have plunged it into his heart. The Lofty MAYOR
told him of the consequences which Might have
ensued, and which would have brought him to
the gallows. Prisoner was discharged on his pro-
mise to leave the house that night, and to keep
the peace towards his companion.
A nest of young robbers, who [lave been carry-
ing on depredations, and have been repeatedly
interrupted and brought up fot'; examination, but
for want of evidence discharged, were detected at
half-Tast ten on Wednesday morning, in the act of
breaking into the shop of Mr. Hull, haberdasher,
nishopsgate-street Without.

with cutting a pane of glass from the window and
stealing six silk handkerchiels. His companions,
three in number, escaped : one of them, 18 years
old, has lost an arm, and is known to be captain
of the gang. Mr. Hull stated, that hearing a
noise at his door, he went out and discovered the
prisoner, who was running away. He - pursued
and overtook hint, but found nothing on him.—
James Mitchell, residing at the next door, stated
that he saw the prisoner hand something to his
cOmpaniOns; who made off with it. Ile was re-
manded till his companions are apprehended.
