THE SATIRIST NEWSPAPER.

This morning Mr. BARRY made application that Barnard
Gregory and James Thomson should be ordered to give t. 2-1
hours notice of bail, upon eight different indictments that had
been preferred against them, by the Messrs. Dicas, sen. and
jun., for assaults and libels; and Mr. HEATON, contra, made
a similar application on behalf of the defendants, calling on
the former plaintiffs to give notice of bail to five indict-
ments, and Dicas, sen. along with Charles Bluck, to other
three. All these indictments arose out of articles that ap-
peared in the Satirist, and assaults committed in consequence
of them.

Henry M'Lean was indicted for ,on the 15th July, in-
decently exposing his person to a female named Margaret
Gazlee, in the parish of Hackney. The prosecutrix proved
the case, and was very much agitated while under examination.
The Jury returned a verdict of Guilty, and the Chairman
sentenced the prisoner to be imprisoned for three months.

There were only two assault cases for trial after this, when
the Sessions will be finished.

OLD BAILEY.-(THIS DAY.)

OLD COURT.

James Brown was indicted for stealing 17s. in silver from the
shop of Lucy Johnson, in Hackney.
The prosecutrix keeps a shop in Hackney-road. On the 31st
of August, while sitting in her back parlour, she saw the pri-
soner come into her shop, and go rapidly out again. On going
to the till, she missed seventeen shillings in silver, and gave
information to a policeman, who went after him and caught him
in the London-fields, in the act of counting some silver. The
policeman found on him 175., one of which was a shilling of a
peculiar appearance, which the prosecutrix could swear as hav-
ing been in her tilL

The prisoner, in his defence, said, he was out of employ, and
being in want of a pair of shoes and a pair of trowsers, he bor-
rowed eighteen shillings of his brother ; that he spent Is., and
had the 17s. left when he was apprehended. He said he had a
witness to prove that his brother lent him the money.
The person the prisoner alluded to was called, but did not
appear. The jury found him Guilty.
Henry Hughes was charged with embezzling 161. the property
of his employer, Edward Miller.

The prosecutor was a farmer at Cranfield, in Bedfordshire,
and was in the habit of employing the prisoner as his drover.
On the 3d of August the prosecutor sold a cow and calf to Mr.
Palmer, a butcher in Marylebone, for 161., and he sent the ani-
mals by the prisoner to Mr. Palmer, with directions to bring
back the money. Mr. Palmer paid the prisoner the 161., after
which the latter absconded; but on the 2Sth of the same month
he was apprehended, and he said he had contemplated em-
bezzling the money before he received it, as he knew his master
could well afford it, and that he had " stuck to it and spent
every halfpenny."

In his defence, the prisoner said after he received the money,
he met an acquaintance, with whom he got drunk, and then
fell asleep in a public-house, and that on awaking he missed
all the money.
The prisoner was found Guilty.

Daniel Lanzbert was indicted for stealing a coat, three
waistcoats, a pair of trowsers, and other articles, the property
of Mr. Thompson.

The prosecutor lodged at No. 4, Hartshorn-court, Golden-
lane, and kept the goods named in the indictment in a drawer
in his bed-room. The prisoner was a fellow-lodger ; on the
Ist of August the prosecutor missed the articles, and upon
charging the prisoner with stealing them, he at once confessed
that he had taken them, and pawned them.
The prisoner received an excellent character from several
respectable tradesmen, one of whom offered to take him in his
employ if the Court would discharge him, or deal leniently with
him. One witness said that the prosecutor, before taking the
prisoner into custody, had agreed to receive what the property
was pawned for by instalments of ss. a week.

The prisoner was found Guilty, but recommended to mercy.
He was sentenced to 14 days' imprisonment.
John Wilson, aged 20, was indicted for stealing a watch,
value 51., and a chain and seal, from the person of Wm. Scott.
The prisoner was found Guilty, and sentenced to be trans-
ported for life.—Prisoner.—Thank ye.
