THE ADVERTISEMENT SHEET.
lam often amused at the things that we view
In a Journal's adverti.ement columns—aint you ?
Very seldom it is that I happen to miss
So pleasing a part of the paper as this.
Just look at the medley :—Guns, pictures, and knives,
And carpets and fish-hooks, anti husbands and wives,
And pigs and pianos, and lovers' misgivings,
And servants and shovels, and clergymen's livings,
And oil and tobacco, and classic researches.
And scavengers' contracts, and organs for churches,
And tallow and tartlets, and houses to let,
And ballads and sermons, and " razor-blades set,"
And wafers tbr beetles, and blankets and quills,
And lessons in dancing, and pickles and pills,
Announcements in prose and announcements in rhyme—
But here let us pause, for I think it high time.
Yes, I think it high time after what you have heard,
That the Warehouse of MOSES and SON have a word.
I confess that I'm always delighted to meet
E. MOSES and SON on the newspaper sheet.
For all that they say is essentially true ;
Yes, they do what they say, and they say what they do.
I've tried both their houses, the East and the West.
And their garments, I own, must be ranked as the best. t
And I trust that we long shall continue to meet
With their name en the public " Advertisement Sheet."
Notice.—The Fur and Shawl Department are now replete with
every novelty of the season.
Observe.—Any article purchased, either ready-made or made to

against imposAion, but having heard that the untradesmanlike false-
hood of being connected with them, or it is the. same concern, has
been resorted to in many instances, and for obvious reasons. They

the Great Western Railway Company, for such
moiety of profits purchased by them, and if it shall
appear to the South Wales Railway Company, at any
time after such extension to Carmarthen shall have
been opened for public traffic during a period of two
years, that a distinct additional profit has actually

creased profits, regard being first had and allowance
made for the loss, if any, which the Great Western

CIIRIST Cuuncii, BLACKFRIARS.—Yesterday the
inhabitants of this populous parish assembled at the vestry-
room, in pursuance of a notice issued by the churchwardens,
to whom a numerously signed requisition had been pre-
sented, for the purpose of protesting against the recent papa 1
encroachments. There was a crowded attendance. An
ad-
dress to the Queen, expressive of devoted loyalty and
ment to the throne, and of surprise and indignation at
recent aggression and usurpation of the Pope, and praying
for legislative interference, was unanimously adopted • and
attach-
ment
a deputation was appointed to wait on Sir G. Grey with the
alarm.

William Willoughby Gunston an attorney resid-
ing in Hatton-garden, surrendered in discharge of his
bail to meet an indictment charging him with com-
mitting an assault upon Mr. Eenry Symth, clerk is
Somerset House, a witness in the late inquiry re-
specting the state of mind of Mr. Fermor. The
particulars of the assault have already appeared in
our police report at the time the defendant was
brought up.
Mr. CLARKSON, who appeared for the defendant,
said that had the prosecutor offered any explanation
of the evidence he had given, his client would have
been happy to have made any amends for the injury
he had committed.

Mr. CARTER, for the plaintiff; said that such a
COUne could only he considered as an invitation to his
client to admit that he had been guilty of wilful
perjury in the evidence that he had given on oath.
If persons were to be overLwed for eny evid,nce they
might have given in any court of justice, there would
be no securiy for any perg.on whatever.
The Learned Junci sail that 3r. the same time it
should. be observed that if Mr. Smyth refused to give
any explanation he had no right to go about scatter-
ing falsehoods.
Mr. CAETEE said he. was instructed to say that
what.his- client stated be had stated solemnly on his
oath, and what he still believed to be true.
The Learned JUDGE said it appeared to him that
there was no reflection upon Mrs. Gunston in Mr.
Smyth's evidence. The object of that evidence was
to show that Mr. Fermor was insane and labouring
under delusiOns; and when accused of intending to
malign the memory of Mrs. Gunston, Mr. Smyth
ought at time to have disclaimed any such -intention
unless such had been his intention. The defendant
was justified in assuming that he was guilty of what
he imputed to him, in the absence of any denial on his
part; and under such circumstances it was not to be
wondered at that a son should be anxious ,lo defend
the reputation of a deceased mother. The sentence
of the Court Was, that the defendant be fined ls. and
diiclitarged.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.

GUILDHALL.

Yesterday William Ashby, a tall, robust-loOking
man: and Harriet Gribble, were brought up before
Mr. Alderman Humphery, charged with misdemea•
nour under the following circumstances :
Police-constable 229 stated that about twenty-five
minutes to four o'clock on Thursday morning he saw
the male prisoner talking to the female in Three Tuns
passage. While requesting them to move on he ob-
served the male prisoner holding his hand down by
his side, which appeared to contain something he
wished to hide from the officer. Witness immediately
secured prisoner's hand, and, on opening it, discovered
a gold watch-guard, with a gold seal and two keys on
a ring attached to it. Seeing that the chain was
broken as if it had been forcibly severed from a watch,
witness asked prisoner whose property it was, and he
replied that it was his own. Not being satisfied with
this account, witness took both the prisoners into
custody.

Alderman HIIMPHERY—To whom does this chain,
with the keys and seal, belong ? Prisoner—They are
mine, your Worship.

Alderman HUMPHERY—The name of William
Ashby does not agree with the initials engraved on
the seal. How do you account for that ? Prisoner
—I bought the ticket and took them out of
pledge. I left the watch at the watchmaker's, Mr.
Connor, in Cheapside, to be repaired. It is a silver
lever.

Alderman lIIIMPHERY—Then you had better stand
down for a few minutes while the officer makes inquiry
at Mr. Connor's.

In the course of the sitting of the Court the officer
returned, and stated that he had been to Mr. Con-
nor's, who had informed him that prisoner had been
in the habit, for the last two or three years, of leaving
watches with him to be repaired. Prisoner left a silver
lever watch with him about a week ago.
Alderman IlumrnEnr—Where is the watch?
Officer—l have not got it. Mr. Connor hesitated,
and did not seem inclined to let me have it.
Alderman lIIIMPrIERY- Go and get it.
In a few minutes the officer returned with the
watch.

A. brother of the prisoner appeared, and stated that
prisoner was a dairyman, residing in Clapham. He
knew the watch to be the property of the prisoner,
William Ashby.

Alderman HUMPHERY—Where did he get this
watch ? The brother—Oh, he bought it somewhere.
Alderman lIIIMPUERY —That may be. I ask the
question because a gentleman was before me yesterday
who was robbed of a watch answering in description
the one now produced ? The brother said the pri-
soner had had it a long time in his possession.
Alderman HUMPHERY—Du you know anything of
tins chain? The brother—Yes; that is the property
of the prisoner.

Alderman IlustruEur—Do you know what is on
the seal? The brother—No, Sir; but 1 think there
is a crown on it.

Alderman Hamra Ear There are the letters
" J. F." engraved on the stone, which is a dark afllo-
- with a crest of a fawn's head on a ducal coro-
net. To say the least of it the case looks very suspi-
cious, particularly as the appears to have been
cut, and it is not at all likely that any gentleman would
cut his own chain. Under these circumstances I
shall discharge the female, as there is nothing against
her, and remand Aahby for further inquiries.
The brother here offered to be bail fur the prisoner,
which was accepted by the Alderman ; and he was
accordingly bound over in the sum of 50/. to answer
for the appearance of the prisoner when called on.
ROBBERY BY AN ERRAND-BOY.— William Matthews
was placed at the bar, charged with stealing a Bank
of Ragland 101. note, the property of Messrs. Braun
and Kortoski, cap-makers, of 34, London-wall.
Marcus Kortoski said he was in the employ of
Benjamin Kortoski. Prisoner was errand-boy to the
firm. On the 24th of August, 1849, witness entrusted
prisoner with a Bank of England note for 101., and
requested him to obtain change for it. Ile went oat
with it, but never returned. Witness went to the
Bank of England on the following day, and ascer-
tained that the prisoner had changed the note there,
and had received ten sovereigns, which he appro-
priated to his own use. The note produced was the
property of Messrs. Braun and Kortoski. The words,
" 34, London-wall," written across the back of it,
were in the prisoner's handwriting.
Richard Adye Bailley, a clerk in the accountant's
office of the Bank of England, identified the prisoneras
the party who changed the note on the 24th of August,
1849. lie requested the prisoner to write the address
across the back before payment.

Police-constable 204 M said, in consequence of in-
formation he received, he apprehended the prisoner in
Star-corner, Bermondsey, on Monday last, when he
admitted having changed the note and kept the money.
The prisoner was then committed for trial.
BOW-STREET.

A Post-office clerk, named Forbes, charged with
opening letters passing through the General Post-
office, was brought up in custody for further exami-
nation.

Several witnesses having been examined, the pH-
Boner, litho declined saying anything in his defence,
was committed for trial.
