A correspondent asks whether a Magistrate is
not bound to insist on having his warrant, issued in the
Kiwi's name, executed? and whether, were the same
laxity permitted in all cases as in a recent one, every felony
might not be compounded with impunity?

Mr. CONANT—Do you mean to say that the policeman
took your watch purposely ?—I do, most solemnly.
Mr. CONANT-I think such a charge from you is highly
discreditable. A policeman is a most unlikely person to
commit such an offence, as detection is so much the more
certain ; and it is still more unlikely he would have thrown
the watch down when you charged bim with the offence?—
Ile did not throw it down until I had taxed hem with the
theft.

Mr. CONANTI will not entertain a charge of this
sort. The policeman hears a good character, and I can-
not believe there is any truth in the charge against him.—
I solemnly declare I have spoken the truth. lam a trades-
man of character, and I think quite as unlikely to state an
untruth as a policeman.

Mr. CONANT—WeII, you must put in bail.
Mr. Gerry having been removed, a communication was
made to Mr. Conant, which induced him to direct that
Mr. Gerry should be brought in again, upon which he
said that, as he had been assured of Mr. Gerry's respecta-
bility, he should require him to enter into his own re-
cognizance only.

AN AMOUROUS LAMPLIGHTER.-Mrs. Twigg, a
having demolished the bonnets and cloatcs or a couple 01
cherry-checked damsels on the previous evening.
One of the complainants, a tall strapping young woman,
with a considerable share of vulgar beauty, said that Mrs.
Twigg, who was an utter stranger to her, pounced upon
her and her sister, as they were " valking at the Vest
end ;" and, without saying a syllable, commenced tearing
and belabouring them, but in particular herself, at a most
extraoidinary rate. It was quite impossible for her to
divine the cause of Mrs. Twigg's conduct.
" She knows the reason sell enough your Worship,'
said Mrs. Twigg. " She encouraged my husband to
come after her these three years, and since she has lain i❑
lately, he has quite abandoned me and left me without
the means of support."
" Well, young woman," said Mr. CONANT to the first
complainant, " what do you say to the charge of admitting
the visits of a married man ? " Complainant—'Tis quite
false. I'm a respectable young woman, and never has no
men come arter me.

CONA NT—Ai e you married? Complainant—No.
Mr. CONA NT-But you have lately been brought to
bed ?—I have had a little accident of that sort.

" Your Warship," said Mrs. Twigg, " though she pre-
tends to deny that she knows my husband, I have seen
them frequently together in the Quadrant. He takes her
of an evening to a Free and Easy,' and he is always vi-
siting her and her sister at a chandler's shop, where they
lodge, in the Seven Dials."
Mr. CONANT—What is your husband ? Mrs. Twigg—
He is a master lamplighter, living in Rose-street, Covent-
garden. He can afford to give seven guineas for a fine
cloak, which he walks about in, while he has only given
me 10s. to live upon during the last fortnight.
Mr. CONANT, after obtaining a promise that Mrs.
Twigg would not adopt the same violent means of redress-
ing her grievances in future, discharged her upon an apo-
logy being made to the lamplighter's two ladies.
