ASSIZES.-(RECEIVED THIS MORNING.)

OXFORD CIRCUIT, GLOUCESTER, AUG. 16.
Wzlliam Hale was indicted for stealing, on the 11th
of June last, 39 sovereigns, the property of a Friendly
Society, called the New Unity Society, at Tewkesbury.
The money stolen was the fund appropriated by the
Society to the relief of sick members and their families,
and had arisen from donations made at an annual feast
held on the 11th of June. The theft was committed in a
peculiarly dexterous manner by the prisoner, who was the
Steward of the Society on the occasion of the dinner.
He was found Guilty, and the JUDGE, sentencing him to
transportation for life, told him that the ingenuity which
he had displayed showed that he had talents which might
have been employed in a much better manner.
The prisoner was a man of respectable appearance.

NORTHERNCIRCUIT.-LA NC ASTER, AuG. 15.

James Johnson, aged 21, Richard Bolton, 19, Wil-
liam Coffee, 26, Royer Kearsley, 21, William Hard-
man, 18, and Benjamin Brown, 19, were indicted for a
criminal assault on a female named Alice Berry, deceased.
On the night of the 20th Jan. last the deceased Alice
Berry had gone with another woman to a public-house for
the husband of the latter, and she bad drank some ale.
About midnight she was seen in the company of four of
the prisoners, who had hold of her, and she was wishing to
be taken home. They, however, took her to a place
called Bambray Fields, and the deceased was heard crying
as she went along, and at the time only one of the
men was with her. The other five prisoners shortly af-
ter came up, and on being informed of the way the man
and woman had taken, they followed after. The woman
was heard shrieking in the field, and a witness said he went
into the field and spoke to the prisoners about the way in
which they were using the woman ; the witness also
stated that several of the prisoners bad the woman on the
ground, and were ill-treating her, and it was evident that
the prisoners had successively violated the woman's per-
son, and while one committed the offence, the others
held her down. Subsequently the prisoners left the wo-
man, and she was found the next morning drowned in a
brook.

The prisoners were indicted at the last Assizes for the
murder of the deceased, and acquitted. By direction of
the Judge they were remanded to be tried upon the pre-
sent charge.
The jury found all the prisoner= Guilty, and
The Learned JUDGE sentenced Hardman to one year's
imprisonment and hard labour, and the others to two
years' imprisonment and hard labour also.
Owen .I.P.Neil, aged 33, member of the police force
at Liverpool, was indicted for having violated the person
of Mary Whitfield, the daughter of a male prisoner at
Sutton.—The Jury returned a verdict of Not Guilty.
On the application of the Counsel for the prosecution
his Lordship ordered the prisoner to be detained, that the
parties might indict him for a common assault if they
thought proper.
