MANSToxr-Musr..-Charles Brown, a Mack, was
yesterday brought before the LoiitiMAYOR, and un-
derwent a second examination. He had been taken
up'abont a week .ince On suspicion of-linving st'Olen
some cotton goods, the property ofperons unknown.
The. Offiper who apprehended him -produced tour
pieces of Scotch Pulicat handkerchiefs, such as are
usually made for exportation to the West, Indies,
Which the Prisoner hacl otlitriql for sale. He stated,
that on searching him he found,in his i:osses:fion
plicates of several` other pieces of the same texture,
which had been pawned, in different names, with
ditferent pawnbrokers, together with a duplicate fox.
a piece of very .fine muslin ; but, though he had
made the striftest inquiries, lie was not able to find
any person who could say they bad lost such goods.
The Prisoner, on being questioned by his Lord-
ship, stated, that he
,had some • time since gone a
voyage to Spanish America. and had taken out hard-
ware, for Which he got these goods in exchange, and
brought them back to England.
The Officer stated in opposition to this, that a
Mr. Parker, a pawnbroker, who was not then pre-
sent, knew the Prisoner pert el?tly well to be in Lon-
don for four years back cleaning shoes.
The Loan MAyou said,. that he thought at pre-
sent there was evidence sufficient to commit him
fully for stealing the goods, the property Of persons
unknown ; but thought it better tirSt to remand,
him to prison, and have a 'farther enquiry made after
the owners.

Jams Fleming, a boy about fifteen years of age,
was put ,to 'the bar, chiirgql with stealing Wine
and spirits on beard the I faunal), lately from Guern-
sey, now lying in the River. The Captain "stated,
that the River was infested_ with a gang. of, boys of
which the Prisoner was one, who were COntinu:l4y,
pilfern lg. whatever they could lay their hands'on, on
board the different ships. He said, he had hired.
the Prisoner as a kind of servant, and had had him.
on board for about two days, On Saturday last the
boy,eame on shore ;. and on Sunday morning he
also came on shore ; but, before he returned, the
Prisoner went back to the ship, and, having in-
vited a number of people on board,.stole three bottles
of wine, and a quantity of iipirits, out of his locker.
The Loan M:.tYon at first thought it best to .send
the PriSoner on board a tender, but.bein., informed
that he was not fit for the service, he ordered him
to be impriSoned one month.

turns made by the, baker, it appeared he: liad.pttrr-
chased the flour at the price et. seventHive shillings

a previous private agreement between him and the.
fatAor, that he should pay. the latter only seventy
shillings per sack.. The parties •being confronted,
did not attempt to deny the charge, .and they were

that the Prisoner vas discharged frotn,k4serNice two

Hours after he had received his dismissal. The Ma-
jor having gone in the hiteritn" to a watenqlOset in
the back yard, had there, through inadvertency, left
'his gold watch, 'which he.did' not miss until 'a short
time after the Prisoner had left the house; when,

. had retmined in the .house above two hours atter his'
dismissal; and further, that in' that time had
