HAMMERSMITH:

Yesterday haviNg heen appointed for the further examina-
tion of Mr. Giibeit .ICanedy, the surgeon, practising in the
Broadway, Hammersmith, and Mr. ,Archibald .APNeill, his
assistant, on a charge of having stolen certain gold chains
and other articles of jewellery, the court was crowded in
every part by respew able persons anxious to witness the
proceedings. _

The prisoner M'Neill was first examined on Monday, the
17th inst., when evidence to the following effect was gone
into. On the 12th of April last (Ra,,ter Sunday) on aged
widow lady, named Riley, lodging in Mr. Kennedy's house,
died, after a short illness. On the afternoon of the same
day Miss Church, the executrix, placed the following pro-
perty, belonging to the deceased lady, in a drawer in the
room in which the body was loin;.;, which was securely
lo.:lted up, viz., a very massive gold chain, weighing upwards
of half a pound, a present from Ferdinand VII., King of
Spain, to Mrs. Riley's brother; a pair of bracelets, to cor-
respond ; a Maltese gold chair. ; four gold seals; a gold key,
like a lock key; a chased gold ring ; a gold eye•glass; and
a gold brooch, &c. On the following Wednesday the articles
were found to have been stolen, although the drawer was
still locked. Within the last few days the police ascertained
that the two chains and abrooch were pledged by M'Neill on
Easter Monday, and taken out again on the Wednesday, when
the robbery was discovered; and M'Neill, on his examina-
tion, declaring that he had received them from Mr. Kennedy,
t 4 whom he pledged them. and to whom he had returned
them, that gentleman was also taken into custody.
At 3 o'clock, Mr. Archibald ,31.'Neill surrendered in dis-
charge of his bail of 4001. to which he was admitted on
Friday last, and was placed at, the bar; as was also Mr.
Gilbert Kennedy, who had been brought up from the
Westminster Bridewell.
On the bench, with Mr. G. Clive, the sitting magistrate,
was the Earl Cadogan, in whose establishment Mr. Kennedy
had formerly been domestic surgeon ; and in the body of the
court we noticed Dr. Quin, Mr. Lavies of Great George-
street, surgeon to the Westminster Bridewell, Mr. Boone
of New Bond-street, and other friends of Mr, Kennedy.
Mr. T. Alley Jones, solicitor, of Hammersmith, attended
on the part of the prosecu(ion ; and Mr. Sleap an.! Mr. Hub-
ler as solicitors for Mr. Kennedy. Mr. M'Neill was unde-
fended.

Mr. Jones requested, as the case for the prosecution had
only been placed in his hands that morning, that the evi-
dence taken at the previous examinations might be read
over by the clerk. His object in making that request was,
that he had heard from a gentleman who was present on
both occasions, that there was some difference between the
,vid.nce given by the same witnesses on the Monday and on
the Tuesday.
Mr. CLIVE said no depositions had yet been taken in the
case, but only the minutes entered, sufficient to warrant a
remand. Those, however, should be read.
Mr. Fletcher, chief clerk, then read the evidence of Miss
Church, the executrix, Amelia Eyles, the charwoman at-
tending Mrs. Riley at her demise, Mrs. Upham, who wts
employed by the prisoner M'Neill to fetal the chains, &c.,
,iut of pledge, Henrietta Mills, Mr. Kennedy's servant,
Sergeant Mount, T 29, and Spurring, T 112, arid also the
statement male by M'Neill before the magistrate.
Mr. CLIVE then asked Mr. Jones if he was prepared with
any fresh evidence in the case ?

lfr. Jones said he was, but he had just understood that
Sergeant Mount, who had the case in hand, was at that
mowe:it engaged at the Central Criminal Court; and as that
officer had in► his possession certain letters, a copy of one of
which had been found in Mr. Kennedy's house, the produc-
duction of which was of
.great importance, he had to
ap;)ly for the postponement of the examination for two or
three days.

Mr. Nobler, on the part Of .11r. Keitheily, said lie had
noticed thlt in the evidence of Sergeant Mount it was statt'd
that certain duplicates of gold watches had been tound in
Mr. Kennedy's room. He wished to know in what name
those articles had been pledged?
Mr. Fletcher said, it was not stated in the minutes of
evidence taken.

()bier thought perhaps otlk,r officer in the case
h- probably recolle( t the name.
T 112, said he slid 11,,t know the name.
Mr. ilobler then asked where the duplicates were fouud,
or by whom were they produced to the officer?—Spurrirg
replied, that he believed they were taken out of a box by
Mr. Kennedy, who had laid them on a bed before Sergeant
Mount.
Mr. CLAW: said, the evidence showing that the tickets
were given up by Mr. Kennedy under the circumstance
stated by Mr. Jones, he should again remand- the prisoners
until Wednesday.
The Earl of Cadogan said he trusted it would be sufficient
for him, at that moment, to bear his testimony to the high
respectability and excellent character of Mr. Kennedy; and
to state his ✓belief that he was incapable of committing such
an offence as that with which he was charged.
Mr. CIAvE said it should have every weight in his judg-
ment on Ow case.

Mr. Lavies and Mr. Boone then entered into sureties in
the sum of 2001. each, and K.*.mnedy in 4001_ on his be
half; and the bail previously taken for Mr. 411'Neill having
renewed their recognisances in the sum of 4001., fur the ap-
pearance of the prisoner on Wednesday, both prisoners were
liberated.

Mr. tlobler then applied for a copy cf the evidence which
had been taken in the t.:I4P. which wis acceded to.

SINGULAR CIRCUMSTANCE —dRISTOL.—Ah',Ut one
o'clock on Thurday night, or rather Friday morning, a
chaise drove up to the White Lion in this city, just as some
gentlemen were corning out of the hotel, to whom the driver
applied, saying he had come from Southampton, that there
was a lady (as he believed out of her senses) inside with two
sailors, to whose charge she was confided, and who were
ort'ered by a gentleman at Southampton to take her to
Btistol, to a direction they had received; but on going to
the house, which they had much difficulty in finding out, the
parties there refused to see the lady, and as neither the
sailors nor the lady had any money. he (the driver) had
brought them to the hotel, not knowing how to act. On
applying to the sailors, their statement, though not very con-
sistent, was. somewhat the same; the lady's husband (the
captain of one of the mail steamers), they sated, had
ordered them to take her to Bristol, and they showed a letter
to a gentleman of this city, and which was opened, in which
the husband requested hun to have his wife sent on to her
sister's—a request which was not successful, and they now
did not know what to do, as they had received no money
when the lady was placed in their charge. The lady, who
certainly seemed out of her mind, was of polished manners,
and, Ls it was afterwards proved, was one of a large and re-
spectable family once residing in this city. After some delay,
they were driven off to Bath ; but the circumstances of the
case, and the strange and un-uitable custody to which a lady
was confided by her husband, and the hour of their arrival
here, have induced some further inquiries into a matter some-
what suspicious. —Bristol Times.
GRANT OF AN ADVANCE OF WAGES TO KILMARNOCK
CaaPET WeAvEus.—We have great pleasure this week in
being able to state that on Saturday the c trpet manufac-
turers in town agreed to give, from the first of September, the
advanced price which had be: solicited by be weavers of
Scotch or Kidderminster carpets. With the present ad-
ditional remuneration for weaving, and the increase
in the dema.id likely to ho created by the new alterations in
the Athencan tariff. the condition of carpet weavers will in
all likelihood ere long be vastly improved. We hear it
stated, that the weavers of Brussels carpeting both in Scot-
land and England are with a prospect of success, about to me-
morialise their employers for an advance of Id. per yard.—

CHEAP AND WHOLESOME PHYSIC.—The inhabitants
of Hull have of late been undergoing a process of general

Their light-hearted revels we cherish with joy,
Whilst the face is 'numbed of each beautiful boy
Oh 1 there is not a youth, we may venture to say,
But enraptured looks forth to the bright holiday ;
And amongst all the transports, and many are those,
There is nothing that pleases so much as New Clothes 1

fhe very best Clothing provides for each youth,
Transcendently high his great name now it shines,
For Hussar Suits and Tunics of novel designs !
At incredulous prices he now will dispose
Of his splendid assortment of Juvenile Clothes
