EXTENSIVE SWINDLING TRANSACTIONS
as' " A F REIGNER RANY."--A discovery of an
unpl a•ant nature, produced a considerable " sensation"
during the pad week at the west end of the town, which
originated in the nefarious conduct of a certain chevalier
d'industrie, recently arrived in this country, and who
has managed to get introduced into the fist circles. The
principal sufferers on this occasion are, as usual, hotel.
keepers, jewellers, tailors, livery stable keepers, &e., and
although the party has only been in this country about
three weeks or a month, the amount of the pr perry he
has succeeded in obtaining by false representations, is
ratt dto be considerable. The Baron
stain from mentioning his name in the present instance)
is a German by birth, about 35 or 36 years of age, of
slender make, with light hair, and s mdv mustachios, and
speaks English very imperfectly. On his arrival in town
he stopped at a hotel in the city, but shortly of erwards
removed to one of the most respectable hotel. in the vicinity
of Berkeley-square. He possessed a me species of intro•
suction to several of the Foreign Ministers, and at one of
the principal embassies, of which he availed himself to
countenance his assertion that the object of his visit to
this country, was to transact " important diplomatic
business." He hired a dashing cabriolet and
lively servants ; and purchased four very valuable
horses ; gave extensive orders to the tradesmen
of the parties to whom he had introduced himself, fir gold
chains, suits of clothes, Sze. ; and also gave sumptuous
dinner parties, nor was the slightest suspicion entertained,
until the City hotel-keeper paid a visit to his fellow.sufferer
at the west end, on Wednesday last, when it transpired
that the Baron had not " shown the colour of his money"
at either place ; the four horses were unpaid for, and
standing at livery near Aldgate. The Baron did not re-
turn to his hotel that ❑ight, having enjoyed the nocturnal
orcies at Crockford's, which led to the supposition, that
he had made a hasty retreat, and has not since returned.
Upon a slight examination of a single portmanteau (all
the Baron's luggage), it was found to be empty, and all
surmises as to the solvency of the Baron became now at
an end, and the hotel has since been daily beset by trades-
people who have suffered, anti were about still farther to
suffer from the Baron's patronage. So soon as the Noble-
men and gentlemen whose names he had used became
aware of his proceedings, they sent round to caution their
tradesmen from trusting him, and it was then discovered
that there was not one but what had suffered. There are
several "gentlemen of the law" anxious to have an inter-
view with the Baron, who, it is supposed, has not yet
quitted town.
Lady BLESSINGTON continues, in the pre-
sent number of the " New Monthly Magazine," her deli-
neations oh Lord BYRON'S extraordinary character, derived
from his Lordship's own confessions, as well as from the
close intuition she has herself so evidently obtained into
his peculiarities, llis thoughts on women, as developed
in this new portion of the " Conversations," will affect,
with some surprise, those who hive been accustomed to
consider Lord BYRON on►y as a cynic in his estimate of
the female heart and qualities ; nor, on the other hand,
will the fresh series of his caustic reflections on London
society, be found less piquant than those which the pen
of Lady BLESSINGTON has previously revealed to the
world, through the same channel.

The vessel Luxor is now moored in the grand
basin of Cherbourg, the magnificence of which recals the
great works of Egypt at the time of her splendour. The
superb monument, which, during so many ages, was the
ornament of ancient Thebes, and the wonder of the Grecian
and Roman travellers who visited it, will be conveyed to
the French capital as soon as theo,Seine sha,l have become
navigable for the Luxor. This ves,el will ascend the river
without the help of any propelling force, precisely as it
ascended the Nile, and will be seen in Paris such as it was
in Thebes.
THE THREE SISTERS.—There are at pre-
sent in the Orphan Hospital of this city (Edinburgh)
three twin-born girls, whose size, features, and appearance,
every way, are so much ahk,, that strangers cannot know
the one from the other, nor could even their teachers
identify them when separa ed, were it not from a small
freckle or mole placed on the bottom of their foreheads,
betwixt their eyebrows ! These freckles also heir a strong
resemblance to each other, but from a slight diffrrrnce in
their position, a little experience leads to distinguish be-
twixt the children by these natural masks• The three
sitters attracted much attention en their pleasure trip to
Stirling on Thursday, and should the similarity continue
until ti,e girls grow up to womanhood, we can fancy many
an awkward rencontre that may occur by their lovers
mistaking the one for the other.

His Lordship expressed a hope that he should one
day have an opportunity of asking Mr. Bennett fcr
an explanation. 1n the meantime he should impress
upon commerc;al men the necessity of exercising
great caution in addressing letters to gentlemen who
were not known to them, whatever might be the
business upon which communications were requested.
William Puddifoot, an old man, whose losses at
gambling have had an evident effect upon his in-
tellect, was brought before the LoRD MAYOR by
Daniel Forrester, charged by two gentlemen of the
Stock Exchange under the following circum-
stances :
Mr. James Clarke (of the Stock Exch tared
that the prisoner, who had been Ict him
about eleven years, and who possessed ears
ago a considerable sum of money, which st in
gambling speculations, came to him on Friday to
purchase some stock for a gentleman of the name of
Langley, a respectable man, residing in Wells-street,
Oxford street, who was in the habit of purchasing.
Witness transferred 201. a year January annuities
into the name of Mr. Langley, having often done a
similar thing for that gentleman, and been paid by
the defendant, whom there had been no occasion in
any previous instance to distrust. The stock, upon
being thus transferred, became the property of Mr.
Langley; but the defendant disappeared when wit-
ness expected to receive the cash, and witness
became a loser to the amount of the value of the
annnities. Mr. Harrison, another stockbroker, had
also transferred some Ssock for Mr. Langley at the
desire of the defendant, and the amount of ca-h,
which was in both cases deficient, was 4431. 12s. 6d.
It was soon ascertained that Mr. Langley had given
the whole of the money to the defendant, who
changed the Bank notes for sovereigns at the Bank
of England, and was nowhere to be found.
Mr. Cope stated although the Defendant had
got hold of so large a sum of money, arid evidently
intended to misappropriate all of I_t,_ still he was
met close to the Mansion House on neiday by Mr.
Langley, who, having been informed of the misap-
propriation, gave him into custody. The defendant
had about him .501., and he mentioned two places
at which lie had left the greater part of the money.
The deficiency then amounted to 49/., and the de-
fendant declared, upon being asked what he had
done with the rest of the money, that he had sat
down to cards with some people in Lisson-grove,
and lost the most of it. Tile defendant made con-
tradictory statements at diff,rent times, and was
eviden•ly a weak man.
The defendant's wife, a very decent poor woman,
came forward and made a statement which excited
universal commiseration. She said that her unf6r-
tunate husband had become very weak and confused
in his intellects on account of misfortunes which
had fallen upon him and his family through his
fatal propensity to gambling. A set of cruel men,
who knew his pilssion for that vice, took every op-
portunity of encouraging him to the exercise of it.
He had lost neatly 2,000/. already, and 251 a year
was all that he, his wife, and six children had re-
maining. That was hers, but she would give up
any part of it to cover the deficiency, and save the
old Man the ignominy of a trial.
The LORD MAYOR (to the defendant—Why did
you convert the bank-notes into sovereigns? De.
fendant—l don't just now know.
The LORD Niawiß—You don't look like a
drinking tnxn. Were you sober? Defendant—
No, I don't thit,k I was ; but I don't know.
The LoRD MAYOR—Where did you go when
you got the sovereigns ? Defendant-1 think I
went to a friend, and then I went home.
The LORD MAYOR—Anti where did you go to
play cards ? Defendant—Don't know, I'm sure.
The LORD MAYOR—What game did you sit
down to ? Defendant—What game ? Why crib•
bage to be sure. Did'nt we run round the board?
The LORD MAYOR—And why did you play
with the money of these gentlemen ? Defendant
—Why ? Why because I lost all my own. What
else had Ito play with ?
The LORD MAYOR wished much that he could
catch hold of the ruffians who, it was evident, had
robbed the old man, and advised the complainants
to accept the proposition of his wife, and to have
some considera.ion in the arrangement for the misery
of the unhappy family.
The complainants declared that they would be as
light as possible upon the old couple.
BOW STREET.

The office was much crowded yesterday in con-
sequence of its being known that an investigation
was to take place into a charge of assault pieferred
by Lady Fiances Wedderburne, against a clergy-
man named Mr. James MDonald.
Mr. Philips appeared for Lady Frances, and Mr.
Alley was coun.el for Mr. M•Donald. On the
bench were Sir F. A. Roe, Mr. Mitishull, Mr. Halls,
and a County Magistrate.
Lady Frances Wedderburne on the 23d of August
resided in No. 14, Chesteifiel d-street. On that day,
which was last Friday week, about four o'clock,
her servant knocked at the door, which was opened
by her servant boy, and instantly Mr. M'Donald
rushed in, and with some;hing which he had in
his hand, struck her a violent blow on the head
—he struck her several time; and then the ser-
vant, whom he had knocked down at the door,
came, and her sister, another servant, hearing
the noise, came from up stairs, and both assisted
her; upon which, as the defendant could not then
both defend himself and strike, he seized her very
tight by the arm, and knocked her against the wall,
at the same time kicking a large chair after her.
Her arm and hand even now, at the end of ten days,
ot, ,
tier,
were all marked (she shewed her hand, which bore
h e markss,eNveorwe sI wtrokties hiestriking

l o
lie cali ofed some
revengedW
upn
with a poker, and another with an umbrella, but six
or seven men appeared at the door, and the defendant
cried out, " Now all that belong to me come in."
Her husband, Sir James, was abroad, and she was
left quite unprotected.
William Purdi and Ann and Harriet Terry, ser-
vants to Lady Wedderbui ne, and Mr. Benning, tutor
to the family, were called to support the foregoing
evidence.

John flaw was in the employment of Mr. Ste-
vens, a broker. &crew had made a levy in the

Mr. Warm was about to commit her for a
month, when her husband stepped forward and
begged leave to say a few words.
Mr. WitiTE—What is it you want ? Husband
—Plase your Worship this here woman is my law-
ful wife, and sLe lately had a severe attack of the
cholera, from which I am sorry to say she recovered,
as I thlhk ever since she has been out of her mind,
for, poor woman, if she but smells the bunghole of a
girl cask, she is as drunk as a sow.
Mr. %%' lIITE appeared to doubt whether smelling
a gin cask alone would have such an extraordinary
effect.

Husband—lt is a fact, your Worship, that smell-
ing a gin cask alone will do it ever since she had
the choleia. I don't wean to say but what she will
drink a little drop, when she can get it.
Mr. WHITE—I have no doubt on that point, but
you have given me no reason why she should go and
beg about the streets ?—"Certainly not," replied
the husband, " but I have fought for my King and
country many years, and I hope you will let my wife
go this time, and I will be answerable that she never
appears here again. She is ,uch a terrible woman
tur gin, tha- I will take her into the country as soon
as ever I ieveive my pension."
Mr. WurrE—Well, I'll try you this once. She
may go this time.
Husband—Thanks, your worship. Oh, I wish I
could clap a padlock upon your nose and mouth.
Wife—Well, I can't help smelling you know, my
dear.

Husband—Your nose will be your ruin, if it is
true, as you say, that smelling gin will make you
drunk; but I'll take pr: emus good care fur the fryure
that you sine!l no mule gin. Your worship shall
never see my Nance again, depend upon it.
The unfortunate husband and his wife then left
the office•.
MARLBOROUGH.STREET.

APPOINTMENT OF A MAGISTRATE IN TIIE PLACE
OF SIR F. A. ROE.—Yesterday, pursuant to ap-
pointment from the Secretary of S ate, R. J.
CHAMBERS, Lsq., the talented Magistrate of Union-
Hall, took his seat on the Bench, to supply the va-
cancy caused by the appointment of Sir F. ROE to
the Chief Magistracy.
Ann Thomas, alias Lewis, alias Henry, was yes-
terday placed at the bar, charged on supicion of
stealing a very handsome Chantilly veil under the
following peculiar circumstances :
A few days since an infant belonging to Mrs.
Osborne, a pers in residing in Noel-saeet, Oxford-
street, fell out of a window, and was packed up
nearly insensible. The mother, who was, as may
be conceived, much cl.strcsstd, went to ate Hospi-
tal with the child,leaving her apartments in the care
of the prisoner, who undertook to clean them out.
The veil, at 4 :.'clock in the afternoon, was seen safe
amongst some others which had been left for the
purpose of cleaning and repairing, but at ten the fol-
lnwing morning it was missed.
Mr. DYER inquired the particular cause of suspi-
cion against the prisoner.
The prosecutor said that the prisoner had volun-
teered to clean the room, and no other pet son had
had an opportunity of purloining it.
Prisoner, in defence, knew nothing of the veil.

" Stop," observed Mr. DYER, as she was about
speakmg, " pray be sworn."
Miss Maria then affectedly lisped forth her nar-
rative. She certainly did go to a little bit of a sing-
ing party with the wale, but then she certainly d►d
give it io her mistress directly she got home, and that
was on Monday. She corroborated the statement
of the prosecutrix as to having the woman in charge
of the place.
Some person here intimated to the Magistrate
that the veil had been sent to Mrs. Osborne 's to re-
pair, and that it was worth fifteen guineas.
Mr. L)yER— Was the veil repaired ?—" No,"
observed Miss Maria, " it was to have been done,
but then I didn't do it."

DYER—Why, it was not the way to repair
it to wear it yourself.
" On, your Wort,hip, I didn't wear it more than
an hour I'm sure," said Miss Maria.
Are you

have it inure than an hour on though I'm sure,
repeated Miss Maria.
Mr. CHAalBERs—Was it a ball that you went to
in this valuable veil ?—" Oh tio,"' said Maria,, it
was only a bide singing party I went to."
Mr. CHAMBERS—You ought not to have worn it
out at a party.
" But, your Worship, it was only a little party,"
rejoined Miss Maria.

Mr. Sergeant SELLON thought it a most filthy
instrument for a young gentleman to " lark" with.
--(Laughter.)
Several persons in the office, who knew the
prisoner, said that he was a respectable person, in-
capable of stealing the article.
[he prosecutor stated that he was rather vexed
at the time, or he should not have charged him ;
" but we have made it all comfortable, your Wor-

SHIPWRECKED MARINERS.---Nt,terday the cap-
tain and crew of the Ann, a collier of Sunderland,
applied to Mr. BALLANTINE in a very deplorable
condition for his advice and assistance.

The captain said he had the misfortune to lose
his ship on the Whitings, off the coast of Suffolk,
during the tremendous gale on Saturday night, and
neii her him nor his men had been able to save a
single article except what they stood upright in.
The vessel was bound to Harwich with coals, and
they encountered the storm on Saturday morning.
After being buffetted about all day she was driven
ou the sands, and they were compeiled to take to
the boat. The vessel came off the sands imme-
diately afterwards and went down in deep water.
After they had been driven about for eighteen
hours, without tasting a morsel of food or a drop
of water, they were picked up by the William, of
South Shields, Richardson, master, bound to Lon-
don, who brought them here. What to do, with-
out money, home, or fiends, they knew not.
Mr. BALLANTINE pitied the forlorn condition of
the ship-wrecked mariners, and said that something
must be done for them. lie inquired if there was
any benevolent institution in the metropolis for the
relief of seamen under such circumstances.

The Magistrate was informed by Mr. Leadly, the
clerk, ar►d Mr. Evans, the principal surveyor of
Thames police, that there was no institution of the
kind.

The Captain said he had no jacket on when he
left the ship, b,it he had just been supplied with one
by Mr. James Ballantine, a shipowner, and the land-
lord of the Golden Anchor in Wapping High-street,
who had also fed him.
Mr. BALLANTINE said he never beast
sake mentioned but in connection with good deeds.
It was not long since that he saved part of a family
from the horrors of starvatiun and relieved them.

Mr. J. Brown, the owner of several colliers, who
keeps the City of Qu-bec Tavern at King James's-
sta;rs, soon afterwards presented himself on other
business, and the case of the shipwrecked crew of
the Ann was named to him by the Magistrate, who
said he hoped Mr. Brown would assist them, if it
was in his power, and mention their d stressed con-
dition to the Captains who used his house.
Mr. B. own would get ships for the men if he
could. Ile was sorry to state that he was a sufferer
by the late severe gale. He hall just received infor-
mation of the loss of his ship the Harmony, which
was driven on shore near Sheerness on Saturday
night last, and went to pieces. Two other ships
were lost at the same time and place. He believed
that the late hurricane was the most disastrous he
had ever heard of.

The district of this office may be said to be one
of mourning, from the great number of persons who
have lost a father, a husband, or a brother at sea.
