'eItOYDON, AUGUST to.

The Assizes for this county commenced at this
town'Yesterday. Last night tbeJudges arrived, and
their commission was read. This morning early they
proceeded to business. On the Civil Side the business
of the day is very flat and uninteresting, but the ca-
lendar contains seal very heavy offences.
CaowN Sinr..—Samuel Lamb, Mary Martin, and
Maria A.ylett, were indicted for stealing 221. in Bank
notes, four rings, a corbet, and opens-glass, and se-
veral other trinkets, the property of Marianne Cooke,
in the dwelling-house of Mary Cooke.
Miss Cooke deposed, that she kept the several ar-
ticles which were stolen in a small cabinet box, and
they were in the box in the parlour of her mother's
house, on the evening of the 7th of March. The
next dsy she missed the box and the articles it con-
tained ; she suspected some other persons, and ap-
plied to Bow-street, but they did not think her sus-
picions sufficiently well founded, and refused to grant
her a warrant. The prisoner, Mary Martin, was the
wife of a Naval Surgeon, and she had known her
.many years. The other female prisoner was her sis-
ter, and the man had lately returned from sea, and
lodged in the house with the other two prisoners.—
The'next day the prisoners left their house at Lam-
beth, and went, as she afterwards discovered, to
North End, Fulham. She heard no more of her pro-
perty for nine or ten days ; at last she heard that
the box, which was a remarkable one, was exposed
o sale at a broker's, in Wych-street, St. Clement's;
she went diem and learnt it had been sold by a man
pad a woman, answering the description cf the man
prisoner, and Mary Martin. She then traced them
to Hammersmith, where they had gone, and, ac-
companied by Adkins, the °Meer, they searched the
house. She found part of an ear-ring, which she
rtiew io be her's upon which Mary Martin confessed
Shehad taken the boi, and said part of the things
were buried in a. little basket in the garden. They
accordingly dug in the garden, and found the bas-
Ll%. with se rer:a of the stolen articles, as she had de-
scribed; The finding of the goods was corroborated

by the witness, who accomianied Miss Cooke, and
- -the broker said he bought the box Iwhich was a ca-
binet otre of ivory) of a man, but he could not speak
.-distinctly to his person. He came to him, and said,
'that, as he understooft he dealt in antiquities and cn-
ribsities, he had brought him that box.
Tbe prisoner, Martin, confessed she had take. tho
bey; but said that her fellow-prisoners were entirely
lifhocetit. • The Jury found her Guilty, and acquitted
• -the others.
George Pearce was indicte4 for wilfully and mali-
cionsly stabbing Robert Rutteridge with a case knife,
In the' parish of Dorking, on the Ist of April last.
By the evidence of a person of the name of Sproke-
lin, it appeared that the prisoner was a Serjeata on a
• recruiting party at 'Dorking. The wounded man
has a Soldier, and on the day stated in the indictment
there were three or them together, and what conver-
sation passed he did not know, but he saw the priso-
ner make a couple of thrusts at Rutteridge ; on the
last of which Rutteridge put his ha*d to his breast,
exclaiming, .6 lam wounded." He saw the blood
trickle through his fingers. He immediately went
for a constable and swgeon. He said that the woun-
ded man afterwards said that there was no animosity
between him and the prisoner.
Mr. Lomax, a surgeon at Dorking, stated, that he
was called in, and found Rutteridge badly wounded;
a case knife had penetrated the cavity of the chest,
apd he considered his wound as extremely dangerous.
He said, that the wounded man who was new with
his regiment, told him that there was no animosity
between him and the prisoner, and he believed the
wound had been accidentally given ; that they were
at dinner together, and that the prisoner was .. sky-
larking" with his knife, and made a thrust at Rutter-
idge, saying, 6. Here, Bob, I have you ;" and that
the Litt struchrhim-
The prisoner, in his defence, protested he had no
intention of injuring his corfirade ; that they *ere
flourishing their knives, and he thrust farther than he
intended.
The Jury found him Not Guilty ; and the Learn-
edludge admonished him to beware how he indtflged
in such foolish-pastime in future, which had very
neatly caused the death of a fellow-creature.
Milian:West was indicted for stealing a black gel-
ding, the property of William Cove, from East Lain-
stead, in the county. of Berks.
• Mr. GURNIY detailed the case, which was proved
as follows :—The prosecutor Cove was a farmer at
East Larrktead, in Berks, and had the horse in his
yard on the night of the 27th of April, but the next
morning he was gone.
A witness, of the name of Knight, proved that he
bought the horse from the prisoner on the Bth of May,
at Milford, in this county. The prisoner, when he
sold him, said he had had the horse all the winter,
and sold him in the name of George Thomas.
The Curse BARON told the Jury, that as the horse
was found so soon atter it was stolen, in the posses-
sion of the prisoner, it became him to account how
he had, come by it, which he had not done. Verdict
—Guilty, •
Hewas also convicted on a second indictment, for
stea a horse; the property of RicharsLfstringer, of
steal
in
rirustead, in the county of Sussex.

GUILDHALL.— Yesterday Me Smith was fully com-
mitted, charged with stealing a qtiantity of metal
from a foupdry at which he was employed, in Shoe:
lien.— Wheeler, the manager of the foundry,
stated, that metal had been frequently missed. The
piece in question, which weighed about 30 pounds;
and had a piece of ropetled to tt, he missed on Tues-
day ; and, suspecting the prisoner, when he went out
to dinner, he brought him back, and found kin bis
small-clothes. The prisoner said nothing in his de-
fence.
MAxstoN-Houss.—Yesterday, a tradesman in St.
Mary Are, was charged by the Foreman of the In-
quest, with affixing two new half-pence to the scale
in which he weighed his butter and cheese, thereby
defrauding his customers of 1 oz. in each parcel he
weighed. In defence he stated, that it was the cus-
tom of the trade to obtain the 'draught in their fa-
vour. This defence, however, his Lordship repro-
bated, and said, that but for his large family, he
would have ordered the City Solicitor to prosecute
him, and that he assuredly would do so, if a similar
charge was again made.

general reprobation, that men destitute of the elements of

public patronage in the profession of physic. For the purpose of

After having receivede regular medical education, as the pupils

carefully attended, as Profcsors and Surgeons of the London Hos-
pital, we entered ourselves as students in that justly celebrated
school for medical acquirements, the Royal College of 17. din-

Surgery, the Theory and Practice of Physic, Chemistry, Mid.-

for a long series of years made VENEREAL COMPLAINTS,
and the various diseases of DEBILITY, the particular object of
our studies and practice, it will, we hope, be allowed that we have
acquired superior knowledge of their treatment and care. In .
slight and recent cases of infection, a perfect re-establishment is
completed in the short period of two days, and in those of the
