EXTRACT OF A LETTER FROM BODMIN, OCT. !

" The Police, in some parts of the country,
.s ems to be at A. very low ebb.—Last -.summer, an
'ancient Sahnort Wear; belonging to the Rev.' Dr.
FLAMANK, at Boscarne, in this County, was wan-
tonly and maliciously .destroyed by a numerous ban-
were•then used to discover the ()film=
ders, but. without effel. The weae hoWever was'
:rebuilt, , as an old patrimonial --property •to its
owner, of considerable value. In Auggst
another of the same' numerons'banditti, -dresse&in
sailoe.s jackets, and carter's frocks, with blackened
faces, and armed-with guns,. pistols, 'cutlasses, -and
otlier offensive Weapons, again.destro-yed this SM.
:mon Wear. And in' the night' Wednesday the
.6th inst. the like-depredations were again committed
by the same banditti,, who also attacked the Mill,
near the Wear; deStroyed the tailing -of the. bridge,
burned several gates, and committed- various other
outrages. The Proprietor ha's agaimotilJed a reward .
:or one lanndied pounds for the-d scovery ;of one or
more of the offenders, who h,t ye all hitherto escaped
the most vigilant search. So fiagrant' an instance
depredation upon private.property, by .a‘bapclitti of
offenders, we trust,. has, not often occurred among
; 11,cornm,m methods fail, ,some extviclrdi-
n-try measures ought surely -to be taken; to bring.
sleh offeikTers "to Fiqic—it li:eon-les -,county, it*
not a natiooal cortoetn.?' •

• At -the deneral'Quarter-SesSions artheTeace- held
for the Ton of -Derby, on MonclaV last, Williarn
for' obtaining I;kl,' fal-se pretences from a
SerjeAnt in the Marines a sum of money as an en
bounty, being :anti apprentice, was' ordered to
be imprisoned three months. r •
At -Worcester Sessions, on WedneSday se'nrrigliti•
Geo.Smith,:of Oldswinford, nailor, was intlifted for
'cruelly. beating George Jures, a parish appintice,
and putting.a chain round both his legs, locking
'and keeping it cirvciay and night frOth December
,to
March hist ;* and also. for beating Williarti
another
,parish apprentice); wounding him'in—the
-head and face, and keeping him without his meals
'from tune to time, till_hc.was almOsst Starved.. Ele-
was fully conviaed :on hothindiaments, and was'
iordered by the Court to l imprisoned two years-.
This punishment, will,, we trust, tend to ..create an
.-alteration in the condu& of those , Masters who,.
,taking parish apprentices merely for the:premium,
Tat soon asthey.,have received' it, treat theril in the,
most brutal-manner. This example-'too :(added to
,the many others we have lately. mentioned) ought
to induce overseers binding apprentices. to aEt with
more caution*, and to be-fully satisfied -with- respekt
to the character of the master under whim they place,
