This Case occupied the a‘rentiOn of the, Court
some `time, and in-order to ti;t‘thecharge upon the
Prisoners some part of the evidence was given con.
siderably in detail. 'lt'appeared upon the whole to
be the result of some Mcchanalian and amorous p.1f0."

with liquor, met the Prisoner late at night", and
accompanied her to her lodging 4 in Tothil-tie4i, ;•
t after sleeping some time, he found that he was rob=

rotting of the than.at the time, who is a:Soldier in.
the Guards, and it appeared had cohabited with the
Prisoner, Sarah CaSlnore, who is_ a very young,
girl. The charge, as affeaing the man, was, esta-
blished principally by. the evidence of a woman of
the name of Kelly, who lived in the same. house
‘vith the Prisoners, and who stated, among other'
material circumstances, thA about the time the Pro-
secutor described himself to have been in Sarah
Cashmore's apartthent, the Prisoner Dandaye was:
sitting in her (Kelly's) room, when Cashmoretame
•. in and whispered to hiin, on whiche he very socrn
after, took off his jacket and a hoes, and went very
softly, up stairs, to Cashinore's apartment.. The:
watch *as soon afterwards 'seen in the possesSion of
Dandaye; and in abed where he had lain in the
'following day the Prosecutor's ,penciLcase and
buckles were found. -These joined 'to several col-
. lateral proofs, together, with the obseivations of the
Judge with respect to the participation of the girl_ in
the guilt, though her's might not have been the hand
that robbed the Prosecutor, induced' the Jury to
find them both Guilty.

Henrylkinsqn was indifted for feloniOusly
stealing, on the stlvol July, six yards of linen
cloth, value_ 6, and an apron value 6d. the property
of Thos. Norris. '
.It appeared. that Mrs. Norris, the wife of the
Prosecutor, had bought the cloth in queStion,. the
day on which it was stolen ; in her way home she
called into the shop of a Mr. Lucas in Sboreditch,
and looked at. some stockings. She observed the
Prisoner,and. another man come into the shop, about
the same time with her. She laid the cloth on. the
counter while she was bargaining about some stock..
ings, but very shortly missed it. She immediately
taxed the Prisoner With the theft ; at this"time his
companion had absconded ; some words ensued, after
which the Prisoner told Mrs. Norris if she would
go with him to the Pewter Platter, a neighbouring
pilie.-house, she should get her cloth. 'The result
of this proposition was, that the- Prisoner deposited
MN a guinea with Mrs. Norris, as -a security for
-the forth-coming.of the cloth. In a few minutes
after.; he returned' with the cloth, and demanded
his money ; and in'some time afterwards the Prose-
' cutor had him apprehended.
The Prisoner's defence consisted of a narrative of
little more than the tarts related on the part.of the.
Prosecution;, to which he vainly endeavoured to give
a complexion favourable to himself.
The Learned judge observed,. that.the Law deem..
(xi a confederate, in such a case as the present, equally
guilty with the
.person whose hand adually corn-
rnittedthe theft ; and that it appeared clearly in
evidence that the Prisoner knew what became of the
Cloth, by his propOsal to Mrs. Norris, and after-
wards producing the property.
The Jury 'had little hesitation in finding him
Guilty. ,

William Wright was charged with stealing, on
the z7th of May, twenty pigeons; valued at ios.
the property of Wm. Clarke. '
It appeared that the parties, and also one or, two
of the witnesses, were dealers in pigeons. The
Prosecutor swore to his loss, and the subsequent re.
covery of three of them..ln the endeavour to prove
that these pigeons had been stolen by the Prisoner,
some of the witnesses stated, that they had bought
pigeons from the Prisoner, which the Prosecutor
asserted- to be his ; but, the pigeons, produced in
'Court as the identical ones, not one of • the Wit-
nesses would swear that they were those which they
bought of the Prisoner. , •
The Learned Judge thought it unnecessary to put
the Prisoner on his defence, as the material point of
the identity of the property could not be established.
The Jury, therefore, acquitted the Prisoner:

tell the amourit or description of the Notes, far-
ther than what he said a Clerk at the Pav-Offiee
told him _the person, however, was not brought
forward, nor had he -any Witnesses in support of,
tire foregoing charge.
The-learned judge observek that though it
might appear the poor fellow hail been ill,treared
by some folks in company with the girl ; yet, the
charge being against her expressly fdr gealing two
Bank Notes, of which, in :the first. instance, there
was no proof, farther thaa drat the: PrQitCUlof Was
told they were Bank Notes—this in such a.ease
was no evidence', arid-under such defect, evidence,
he was afraid they must.acquit the Prisoner :—Ver-

Jeremiah • Emblen was indi&ed :upon two-
counts ; the first, for _embezzling a draft for 2091.
s.• the 'property of Mr. ‘Benbow, with whom he
was iinployed as a clerk ; and the second count, for
'stealing and running away with four fifty pound
notes of the Erik of England, ,which • he,had,re-
cei vett for this diaft. Mr. GURNEY opened the in,-
dietment, And .called Mr. John Benhow; • who .tsaid
that the' Prisoner was a clerk to him ; that on the
z6tl4 of May he sent him -with a draft upon Gus,
ling and Sharp, Bankers, fOr 2091.1 Is. with wilich
he gave him orders- :to take up -a bill which was, due
at' Messrs. Esdaile and Co.'s ; that the Prisoner re_
ceived payment of the draft, but never went
,for the
Other bill, nor-returned till he was apprehended ac
Bath, on the 3d of June ; that when he saw. him at
Bow-stitet Office, he was so much altered in dress
and manner that he scarcely knew hiM.
Mr. Hewing said _he was cashier at Mr.
Gosling's ; that on,the 26th of M4y he paid the
prisoner the 'draft for 2091. i is.-for Mr. Beubow ;
bur 'that he was so disfigured in his dress and ap-
pearance, that he at first could not positively swear
to him ; that he paid him in- four fifty_pound notes
on the Bank of England, and gave the numbers of
thrrn. -
_ _ _

~everal other Witnesses were called,:all of Whom
clearly corroborated the preceding account. Their
evidence- merely went to riace the hands through
which the Nores passed, and to bring guilt home
undeniable to the Prisoner.
On being called upon for his defence, the PriSoner
threw himself On the Mercy of the Court. He was
immediately found. guilty. The whole Case was
indeed clear beyond the. possibility of doubt.

rel boats after some .of the fish, and before the
whole, were sold, in order to .keep it back till

the price. Mr. GOLDHAM, one .of the Gentle.
then Yeomen of the Waterside; told his Lord--
' ship, that having heard: that. the two boats in
question' had shut-up the hatches and refused to sell.
the mackarel unless they got 4.5.' a, hundred more
than in the course of the day (all the other boats
• having sold their cargoes), he. Went and found this
to be the .fad, and had the hatches opened., This
statement was corroborated by three other persons.

pithy. for this - offepce was 201. but understanding
