SURREY SESSIONS, JAN. 15.

Mary Herdy and Mary Shea were indicted for
,having, on the 19th of Novernber, stolen from the
person of James Bul'Winkle a sovereign, and 16s. Gd.
his property.
The prosecutpr' who had an impediment in his
speed], said that he met the two females on Fish-
street-hill, about nine o'clock in the evening of the
day in question, and took them ire a wine-v•ults;
and gave them something' to drink. He got in
liquor, and knew little mere until lie found himself
in the watch-house in Guildford-Street, Southwark,
,
the next morning. When he treated the pruioners,
he changed one sovereign out of two. The women
then took each arm, and led him along into Union-
street, near Union-liall; there he fell down, and the
prisoners took his money ;it was sate till then. He
had been,drinking brandy and water.
Cross-examined by Mr. itoss.—He reckoned his
money after he left the wine-vaults. He was very,
drunk, but he had, his ideas about him. (A laugh.)
He would not undertake to say that every shilling
(Ha not appear double. (A laugh.) He was just
able to stand, and at length fell down. His recol-
lection was going from him, but it was not going so
fast as his feet. (A laugh.) His allowing the
women to take each an arm did not mean that he was
bound to go home and sleep with them. (A laugh.)
When a man had been drinking,. and had taken •
little too much, it did not follow that he was bound
to steer his course homewards...

Joseph Kenriek, formerly a constable of Guild-
ford-street watch-house, - but who now described
himself to be a gentleman, saw the two *prisoners
searching the prosecutor's pockets.
Cross ak- examined.—He could not- swear- that the
women Were searching the prosecutor's pockets. Be
had been a constable ; he did not leave voluntarily,
he was discharged.
*Mr. Ross--What for? Ketirick-!-For doing my
duty. (A laugh.)
Mr. Ross—Yes, that is what all constables get
discharged for. You said that you were a gentle.
man you know -? Kenrick—Yes, and so I am.
The night constable found the money on the
prisoners. Henly said the prosecutor had given her
the silver to go home with him. The prosecutor
was very drunk. He
_must have lost his senses for
a considerable time.

- -
A former conviction of Henly, for a similar offence,
was put in and read.
The prisoners declined saying any thing in their
defence.

The Jury, after a few moments' consultation,
found the prisoners " Guilty."
The CHAIRMAN sentenced the prisoner Henly to
be transported for life; and the prisoner Shea was
sentenced to twelve months' hard lab Our in the
House of Correction.
David Mutton was charged with having, on the
9th of December, embezzled the sum of 21. 12s. 11
the property of John Spratley, in whose employ he
was engaged.
The Jury returned a verdict of " Guilty ;" after
which

The CHAIRMAN sentenced the prisoner to be
:ransported for 14 years.

It appears, on examining the tide.tahles for
the current year, that the tea floods will rise very consi-
derably higher during this year than they have for the 14
preceding years, and may thereby do very serious injury
if not attended to.

LIVERPOOL CORN EXCHANGE.—Jan. 13.
The imports of the past week have, much exceeded the
local demands of the trade, which have been more than
usually limited. At thi3 morning's market' there Was a
very thin attendance of either town or country millers,
and the Wheat trade continued in the same dull state as
previously noted. We cannot, however, vary our quota-
tions. Good heavy Oats were saleable at a reduction of

Id. per bushel,, but. for other qualities there were no
buyers.
