this day. And moreover, yotir Committee, have
been informed that the above entry was fhewn to the
Grand Juryman at the time when he took away the
loaves from the prifon.
Your Committee think it neceffary here to Rate,
that it appeared to them upon a minute examina-
tion, that two of the three loaves, which were found
in and taken from the ki•chen of the Houfe of Cor-
ration to the Guildhall, London, were very (tale,,
having been there Come days, and belonged to the
Cook of the PAC:9n; and that the third was alfo what
is called a (tale loaf ; and that none of the loaves
taken away were intended for or had been delivered
to any of the prifuners.
But your Committee, for the Farther information'
of the Court, have extrafted from the Book of the
Priam, the amcunt of each day's delivery of bread
for the prifmers in the Houfe of Corration, lince
the ta day of January left, and have fubjuined the
fame to their Report, whet eby it will appear that the
overweight of bread, delivered in the month of Ja-
nuary, 1807, was 661 b. in the month of February,
.807, 271 b. ; for the month of March, 1807, 421 b.;
in the month of April, 1807, 27111.; in the month of
May, 1807, 131 b.; in the month of June, 1807, 231 b.;
in the month of July, 1807, 321 b. ; in the month of
' Augull, 58137, 801 b. ; in the month of Sept. 0537,
711 b ; in the month of °Sober, 1307, 851 b. ; and in
the month of November, iSc7, 861 b.: making in
the whole a total overweight of bread delivered for
the prifoners in this prifon, fence the 11l day of Ja
nuary fall, of 5521 b. (and which entries and due
delivery of the bread confrizmably thereto, was veri-
fied on oath by the Clerk of the laid Ptifoo, who re-
ceived the fame.)
Upon the v.hole, therefore, of this invefligation,
k appears to your Committee, that the Sheriff has
been imp fed upon. and that the statement made to
him, uhich occafioned Lis writing the letter to the
Chairman of the Seilion, originated in mifapprehen.
fon, was altogether frivolous and unfounded.
And your laid Committee laftly report, they have
frequently examined into the (late and condi inn of
the Houle of Correilion, and of the feveral pi ironer:
therein cnr&ed; they have found the prifon per-
fatly clean, and the prifoners healthy and without
complaint ; and your Committee bare great fati4ac-
tion in reprefenting to the Court, that it appears to
them by the information of the Rev. Mr. Evans, the
Chaplain to the Prilbners ; and Mr. Atis, the G.
vernor, that the prifoners behave orderly in the-
prifon and with decency, and with due decorum in
the Chapel, during divine fervice ; and that the chi'.
dren, who are kept feparate and apart from their
parents, in the prifon, make great rowers in their
learning, all which the Committee !ohmic, &c.

M.,nday, the 3oth ult. the regiment of Ayrefhire
Yeomanry was infpeeled by Lieut. Col. M.DoL'G•ALL,
Infpefling Offices► of the Diaria, who was highly
pleated pith the foldierlike appearance of the corps,
and the flare of the arms and acc6ntrements.

Notwithliandirg the late diallers *tiring fiom
going on the ice before it was fufficiently congealed
to bear, a number of rafh youths yeflerday had the
hardihood to venture on a pond at Pentonville, when
the frozen mafs gave way, and one of them, named
Pike, the fon of a carpenter at • Somers Town, was
unfortunately drowned. _ _

It was lho-cking to humanity, on the afternoon of
Tut!.lay and the courfe of yeiterday, to w•itnefs the
many melancholy accidents that happened in con-
fequence of the (now being (offered to remain frozen
in great lumps on the foot ways. A number of hulks
fell in the carriage ways, and, in confequence of their
broken limbs, were configned to the knife of the
flaughterer. Filh-ftreet and Ludgate Hills, with the
acclivities and declivities of the three Briiges, par
titularly London Bridge, were the molt fatal ; four
honks' in the courfe of the day having been killed
near the end of Tooley.llreet ; but this was not the
greateft injury, a young man in the employ of Mr.
Field, in Fleet-titter, fell, broke his leg, and fractured
his arm ; a tradefman fell from the Reps of New Inn,
his Ikall was fraflored, and his collar bone dinocated;
A boy not fix years old, attempting to Ride, his feet
flipped from under him, arid, on his being taken to
the hofpitsd, it was difcovered the fpine of his back
was very materially injured ; three others with va•
rinus fraCtures, were taken to St. Bartholomew's
Hofrital, and a greater number to St. Thomas and
Guy's Hofp:tals. It is hoped that the perfons whom
it may concern will caufe the foot ways to be cleanfed
as the ACI requires, or put the penalties is force
againit the offenders.

Tuef.lay evening, the Quarter Mailer of the Royal
Horfe Guards went to Wi-ndfor Theatre, and when
the performance WAS over, from his not being °b-
raved to move he war fuppofed to be asleep ; but
was difcnvered to be lif:lefs. He died while fitting
on the ben.:l), without thofe near him having the lead
knowledge of it. He was taken to the Tun Inn, and
every poilible medical affißance tried, but in vain,
the (park of life was gone. When he went to the
Theatre he was in perk& health.

On Tuefday a daring offender, of the name 9f
Merlin, was committed to. Bedford gaol, charged
with breaking open and robbing the bottle of Mr.
Thomas Ekins, of Blunham, near 13igglefwade, on
the night of Saturday, the 21ft of November fall—
The prifoner has been for Come time fug-peeled as
an incendiary, and in the prefeot inflance had left
behind him fume matches, and a. quantity of tinder,
in the houfe broke open. The fame night the wheel
of a cast, belonging to a Mr. James Allen, a farmer
in that parith, was cut to pieces ; and the prifoner,
who had fotmerly occupied this farm, having been
repeatedly heard to vow vengeance againft Mr.
Allen, became fulpated of the above offeffes ; and
an attorney at Bigglefwade proceeded to the rift) _
ner's refidence in Cambridgefhire, fecured him, and
he has been lodged in gaol to take his trial for the
fame at the next Affizes. It is now about a year and
a quarter fine Mr. Allen's premifes were burnt
down, and buildings. corn, &c. defiroyed, to the
amount of isool. and no acc..unt could be then
given for the fire ; a number of burglatiet have been
lately committed in the neighbouthcpd of Biggler
wade.
