CITY OF LONDON SESSIONS.
(THIS DAY.)
Three very respectable looking young men -named
Patrick Tinte, Daniel Griffen, and Morris White,
were indicted for an assault, upon Thomas Jackson,
a constable of the City police force.
The Jury having consulted for a considerable time,
returned a verdlct to the effect, that the three
prisoners were present at the assault, but there was
no evidence toprove who struck the prosecutor.
The RECORDER said he could not recs,ive a verdict
in that form—it was neither a conviction nor ac
quittal. If they could not agree they must be locked
up for the n'ght, and the prisoners tried again next
session.
A constable was then sworn, and the jury retired in
his keeping.
Esher Isaacs pleaded guilty to an indictment
charging him with an assault upon a constable in the
employment of the Commissioners of Sewers for the
City.
The RECORDER ordered him to be fined 405., and
bound over in his own recognizances in the sum of 401.

fessed to having stolen the spoons, and at the same
time said he had sold them to the other prisoner, who
lived in IV
ilderness-row, for eighteen pence. He did
not, know the prisoner before.
l'he other prisoner denied this statement, and said

good enough, when witness said he would procure
some more expensive in the course of an hour. She
said if he would send them to the Countess Noailles,
39; Albion-street, Hyde•park, at six o'clock precisely,
the Count, whom she represented to be the Secretary,

requested to see the rings that he had brought. Wit-

door. Witness did not see her any more till he saw
her in custody-
Harriette Stow, the landlady of the house in Al-
bion-street, deposed that the female prisoner took her

half a week. She volunteered a reference, and
*,rote on a piece of paper, " M. Le Compte de ,Noa-
111es, attache a L'Ambassade Francais." The wit-
ness also corroborated the whole of the latter part of
the last witness's evidence.

ter, of 56, New Bond-street, proved driving the fe-
male prisoner to Mr. Metcalfe's, and various other

SURREY THEATRE.—The tragedy of Venice Pre-
served was played at this theatre last night, the principal
characters were sustained by Mesa-s. Butler, Elton, and
Mrs Runner, and we have seldom seen it played with
greater effect. The acting of Mrs. Honner rs Belvidera
Was chaste and elegant, and Mr. Elton displayed great
skill and energy in representing Jaffier. The perform..
ance altogether was creditable to the Surrey, and elicited
loud applause.
