CHELMSFORD ASSIZES, DEe. 12.

_William Bird, James Dean, and j chn Andrews;
three loose young fellows, represented as- parish pan
pers, were indicted under the. Statute for a misth
meanour, in being found at night in a plantation
Lord Braybrooke s, at Littlebury, in this county,
company with more than three others, and armet
with bludgeons and other offensive weapons, for thi
purpose of killing game. One of the prisoners,
upon being taken into custody, said he had- no ob,.
jection to go to gaol, for he had learned more
poaching while he was in Chelmsford gaol than
-all his life before, and that, in fact, he knew nothiu,
of it till he went there. The sticks taken upon du
prisoners were brought into Court, and the whole o)
'the defence set up for them had for its object to shot
that these saplings were neither " bludgeons" nol
"offensive weapons," but walking-sticks.
Mr. Justice BURMA/Ulf--I never saw such walk•
ing-sticks. If the prisoners were l3robdinagians the
defence might be good.
The prisoners were all found Quilty, and, beiul
known as inveterate poachers, they were each trans-
ported for seven years.

William Reed, aged 20, was indicted for stealing
281bs. of beef, the property of John H. J. Cozen;
from his dwelling-house, on the 20th of November.
Mr. Justice BURROUGII directed the Jury to ac-
quit the prisoner.

The number of prosecutions against servants, par-
ticularly servants in husbandry, fix• robbing thei.
masters, is greater than has been recollected at any
preceding Assizes. The Learned Judges more duo
once said, that those offences would in future be
most severely punished.

Michael Cashon and John Brien were put to the
bar, charged with highway robbery upon one %%TH.
liarn Greenhill, at East Ham, in this county.
The prisoners, on being arraigned, pleaded guilty.
Mr. Baron VAUGHAN told them, that there was
but little hopes, and concluded by adjudging them
to execution. He ‘vas very much affected whilst
addressing them.
