Dunn, their daughter, were charged on suspicion of
stealing 40 dozen of wine, the property of Mr. Samuel
Anderson, of No. 10, Symond's-inn.
It appeared that about three weeks agothe younger
prisoner was seen in the cellar where the wine
was kept, and on Mr. Anderson returning to to wn

open and the wine gone. The prisoners' lodgings
were searched, but nothing was found.. The male

• CLERKENWELL.—(THIS DAY..)
Thomas Wells was charged with deceiving arr.{ at-
tempting to deceive her Majesty's subjects.
it appeared that yesterday evening, between four
and five o'clock, the prisoner threw himself on the
side of Tottenham-court•road, and pretended to be
labouring under convulsions of the most dreadful de-
scription. .He around his teeth until the blood issued
from his gums, and made all sorts of wry faces. Hun-
dreds of people collected round him, and countless
halfpence were; poured in upon him.
Police constable. 121 E remarked that, notwith-
standing the violence-of the fit, he managed to pick up
the halfpence regularly. He watched him narrowly
for a few minutes, and then discovered it was all sham.
Police-constable Restaud, said that was an old trick
of the prisoner's. He was generally accompanied by
another person who held up his head during the fit,
and made loud lamentations: The mention of a sur-
geon was quite a restorative to the prisoner, who
had been several timez imprisoned for tricks of a
similar character.

Mr. GREENWOOD said it was a most gross and
shameful imposture. 116 would send him for six
weeks to the House of Cowrection, andhari labour.

MARY LEBO NE.—(THIS DAY.)
Caroline Mitrphy and Hannah Mahoney, were
charged by Jones, an officer' of the Mendicity Society,
with begging.
Complainant saw the two prisoners following seve-
ral ladies and gentlemen in. Langham-place, and when
he went up to them, they could make no excuse for
their conduct. He, therefore, took them into custody.
Horsford, another of the Society's officers, showed
Mr. Rawlinson a list, by which it appeared, that he
had had the former priSoner up himself 14 times, and
that each time, she had been committed a month. The
other woman was not known.
Mr. RAWLINSON sent • the former to the House of
Correction for three months, the other was dismisEed
with an admonition.

Edward Bourke, a gerrtlemtmly personage, residing
in Ityde Park-square, was charged with being drunk,
and refusing to pay cab hire.
Charles Dollery, cab-driver 1,535, stated that while
in the rank in Oxford-street a brother cab drove up,
and he drove defendant from the stand in Oxford-
street to Hyde Park-square, and when the gentleman
got out demanded his faro 15.6 d., which he (defendant)
prise by persons unacquainted with the circumstances
refused to pay, and witness, gave hip into custody.
The gentleman, in defence, said that he had paid
the first cabman 3s. 6d., for which he was to have
been driven the whole way. He was sorry, however,
for the trouble he had given, as had he not been tipsy
he should not have refused.

Mr. I.3,Awrassozz advisedlim to settle with the cab-
man, and the gentlemen expressing his willingness to
do so, the case was difeharged.

SALE OF PART OF THE DUKE OF BEAUFORT'S
STUD.—The Duke of Beaufort having determined to
reduce his extensive hunting and racing establish-
ment after the Newmarket meeting, a large draft of
his Grace's stud was brought up from the paddocks
at Badminton, and sold by auction, yesterday, at Tat-
tersall's, We subjoin the prices of some of the prin-
cipal lots. There was little competition, and the
horses generally were knocked down at low prices.
The highest sum realised by one animal was his
Grace's valuable hunter Masquerade, which fetched
125 guineas; Assassin, thorough bred, was sold for
96 guineas ; Anspach, 41 ; Retatnosa, 97 ; Hotspur,
by Percy, 70; Bayadere, 33 ; Lovely, 27 ; Sweet-
meat, 24 ; Mare by Percy, dam by Sultan, 15 ; Cor-
sair, hunter, 20; Jasper, 46, lately ridden by the
Marquis of Worcester ; Fantastic, by Percy, was
knocked down at the low price of six guineas. His
Grace's thorough -bred horses the Abbess, Young
Duchess, Bonnet Pet, Delicate Daphne, &c., realised
moderate prices. The Noble Duke, it is understood,
intends still to keep up his splendid hunting and racing
stud, at Badminton, but on a less extensive scale.
SAVING A PENNY.—A farmer, in the neighbour-
hood of Balfron, sent his servant girl last week to
that village with five pounds' weight of butter to sell.
Having learned that in Campsie, about fifteen miles
off, a certain price could be obtained—one penny a
pound more than he expected in 13alfron—the girl
was ordered, if she did not obtain the higher price in
the village, to walk on to Campsie with her basket.
The result was, that the girl had to trudge to Campsie
and back, about thirty miles, to gain fire pence for
her money-making master. It is needless to say
that her master did not agree to keep the servant in
shoes.—Dundee Herald.
CANAL BETWEEN THE ATLANTIC AND PACIFIC
OCEANS.—It has been decreed by the Congress of New
Grenada, that all the privileges which have heretofore
been given to the French and English, in opening a
canal through Panama, be forfeited and withdrawn,
and the project of connecting the Atlantic with the
Pacific be thrown open to the competition of the whole
m odd.
