[ADVERTISEMENT.] —Jane Hallett, of Whitty Head,
near Netherbury. Dorset, suffered for many years from
a bad leg. From the knee to the ancle it had several
wounds, so that. she was unable to stand or move abou-
the house.
She tried a variety of means and applica-
tions, but without obtaining a cure. By the blessing r I
God and using only three pots of Poor Man's Friend,
and taking three boxes of pills, she was perfectly cured.
Dr. Roberts's Poor Man's Friend, for wounds and erup-
tions of every description, is sold in pots, is. 1-d. and
2s. 93. each. His Piluke Antiscrophulx, for all im-
purities of the blood, is sold in by xes, ls. 111, 2s. 93.,
4s. 6d., lie., and 225. each, by all medicine vendors
throughout the United Kingdom and Colonies.
[ADVERTISEMENT.]—HOLLOWAY'S OINTMENT AND
PILLS. —By the joint action of these two inestimable
specifics all cutaneous eruptions are quickly banished
from the system, the worst description ;of wounds or
ulcers are easily eradicated, the morbific matter which
nature finds injurious to her is thrown out, and a tho-
roughly healthy state of the blood and fluid is the result,
restoring a sound mind and body to sufferers after other
treatment has been found ineffectual, in many cases
saving surgical operations, and even life itself, by their
miraculous Dower. Sold by ail medicine vendors
throughout the world ; at Professor Holloway's Esta-
blishments, 249, Strand, London, and 80, Maiden-lane,
New York; by A. Stampa, Constantinople; A. Guidiey,
Smyrna; and E. Muir, Malta.

The indictment appeared to have been preft reed under
the followieg&rcum.tances :—Dr. Wynne held the lease
of a house in Finsbury-square, and he carried on there
his professional practice, and it appeared that in the
course of last year the prosecutor, Mr. Benham, whe is
the managing clerk of Mr. Jones, an attorney, entered
into an arrangement to occupy a portion of the house for
the use of his family, Dr. Wynne still retaining some
rooms on the ground fkor for the purposes of his pro-
fession, and also a I,ed-room in the upper part of the pre-
mises. There appeared to be no doubt that very soon
after the arrangement in question had been carried out,
and the prosecutor and his family had taken up their
abode in the house, a great deal of ill•feeling arose be-
tween the prosecutor and Dr. Wynne, and that there
were frequent altercations and disputes between them,
and that these disputes eventually led to the occurrence
that was now the suLjec: of inquiry. The assault in
question appeared to have been committed about twelve
o'clock at night on the 29th Dec., and according to the
case for the prosecution, Mr. Benham, his wife, and the
family, consisting of two eons and a daughter, were about
to retire to bed, the bedroom of the prosecutor being on
same landing as the one occup'ed by Dr. Wynne, and as
he was about to enter his room the latter came out of
hisbedroorn, rushed upon the prosecutor, struck bins with
his fist, and forced bins pertly to the ground, and whilst
in that posNon he called to the other prisoner Tinley,
who, it appeared, was the doctor's servant, to come to
his assistance. It was stated upon his doing so Tinley
ran up stairs, exclaiming that he would give the prc-
secutor a pill, and with a poker struck him a violent
blow on the head, and inflicted twe very serious
wounds, and, under these circumstances, the present
in,!iotinent was preferred against both the prisoners.
The jury, after a short deliberation, acquitted both
prisoners.

John Paul, 62, and Joseph William Hawes, 40, were
charged, the former with having feloniou,ly uttered a
receipt for 2901., knowing it to have been forged, aril
the latter with having forged the same instrument, with
intent to defraud the guardians of the poor of the city of
London UniAL

Tnis charge arose out of the frauds and forgeries com-
mitted 1.3, the prisoner Paul in his capacity of clerk to
the guardians (f the city of London Union. It will be
remembered that the prisoner was convicted at the last
session and sentenced to be transported for fourteen
years, and he appeared in the duck in his convict dress,
And exhibited the most dejected and miserable appear-
ance.

The jury, after a short deliberation, returned a verdict
of guilty azainst Paul and acquitted Howes.
No further judgment was passed upon Paul upon this
conviction, but he was merely remanded back to gaol to
undergo his former sentence.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE—March 4.

BOW-STREET.—THE MILITARY BEGGING-LETTER
IMPOSTOR.-'v illiarn Wilson, the old man who stood re-
manded on the charge of having obtained 8/, from Lord
Rokehy, under false pretences, was brought up for final
examination.

The prisoner had been twice remanded, the first time
for the purpose of inqu'ring as to his antecedents. It ap-
peared that he bad gone by the name of Major Talfrey,
but no former offence was established against him. He
was apparently much agitated, and declared that Taltrry
was his real name, and that he had been an officer. He
was then again remanded, at his own request, as he ex-
pressed a wish to consult his sol'citor, and said he ix-
lievßd he could produce Mrs. Duke, on whose behalf he
had obtained the money.
Mr. Henry now said that he had received a letter from
the prisoner, admitting that he could not produce Mrs.
Duke, and that his'soticitor could not at end. He must
therefore come to the conclusion that the prisoner having
in some way heard of Mrs. Duke had made use of btr
name to obtain the money for his own purposes. Lord
Rokeby and his hrother officers would be glad to assist
Are. Duke if she were living and in distress, but they
had reason to believe that she was dead.

The prisoner—She is living, sir.
Mr. Henry—If so, why not produce her and clear
yourself ?
The prisoner—l cannot without inculpating others. I
have nothing more to say, except that I hope that in ap-
portioning my punishment you will take into account my
advanced age, and the malady I am suffering under:
Mr. Henry—You may be thankful that Lord Rokeby
does not wish to prosecute you at the seEsions, in which
case you would get a much heavier punishment than I
can inflict. '
Committed for three months.

Barney Levy and George Williams were charged
with breaking into the house of Mr. James, of C:eve-
land-square, and stealing 50i. worth of jewellery.
On the night of Jan. 29, the prosecutor's servant,
Charlotte Cockett, was alarmed by a imm passing aloo,g
the parapet In front of the wiudow of her room (the
front attic.) On going down stairs she found that her
mistress's jewel case had been stolen from the dressing-
table. It was found that an entry had been forced by
an attic window adjoining that of the servant's. Foot-
steps were traced between that and an empty house a
few doors off, and a man named Leonard came forward
and stated that he had eeen three men come out of that
house. A few days after the prisoners were taken into
custody for an attempt to enter an empty house in
Keppel-street, and a jimmy and some skeleton key
were found on them. One of the keys fitted the door of
the empty house near St. James's ; the jemmy corre-
sponded with the marks on the forced window, and the
piisocers were identified by Leonard as two of the three
men he had seen leaving the sou,e.— Committed for trial.

MANSION-HOUSE —Margt. C ,cbrane was;brought
h.•f.,rß the Lord Mayor, charged with having stolen a
51. note.

Mr. A. Apples )n, clerk in the accountants' bank-note
office of the Bank of England, said—l produce a Si.
Bank note, No. 22,901, dated De::. 12, 1556, which was
paid info the Bank on the 25th of Feb. last. It is en-
don.ed Cochrane, 17, IThrrk-'ane.
E:izabeth Fletcher, wife of a cheesernongear
tineFnoortes,-
street, Ciipplegato, said—The endorsement is in my
handwriting. About the 9.h or 10th of February the
prisoner brJught the note to me, and bought s me bac(,n
to the amount of 44. 6d. or 5-i., and I gave her the
change. I was very particultv about changinh
and asked her questions' which she answered by saying
that she and her husband were taking care of offic.'s in
Mark-lane, and the latter had received it as a pat t of his

salary.
E. H. Long, clerk to' Mr. Shotbridge, of 17, Mark-
lane, wine merchant, said—Th. counting.-house is on the
ground fl ,or, and we have lan iron safe in the fro,t
counting-house, the key of which safe is in a desk in the
office, which i 4 kept locked at night. We are in the
habit of keeping the money in a box, which is rot kept
!oelied, in a drawer in the iron cafe. On the 28th of
January last I received two 51. notes from Moors.

BRISTOL SUGAR—MAucIi 4.
A cargo of Demeraras has been on offer today, but found
no buyers, from the high prices demanded by the importer..
The present position of political affairs, rendering the course
to be adopted as regards the sugar duties extremely doubtful.
renders the trade very unsettled.
