QUEEN-SQUA RP-

Trot MUD Auva.—Mr. WHITE, the Magistrate, was applied
to by a Gentleman, who requested permission to make an affidavit
that a youth named Wm. Doman, aged 16, who was supposed to
be dead and buried, was still alive. It appears that the youth in
question, who was at school at Chelsea, suddenly absented himself,
and although every inquiry was made after him, his retreat could
not be discovered. The body of a youth, quite naked, bat exactly
like Doman, Living been found in the '1 halms two days after his
disappearance, and as it was well known that Doman was partial
to the water, his friends, upon looking at the body, believed It to
be that of the missing youth. They were strengthened in that
opinion, from the circumstance of some of Doman's shoes fitting
the feet of the deceased. A Coroner's Inquest was held on this
supposed Wiliiam Doman ; be was respectably buried in St.
George's Burial-ground, and the relations and friends all went into
mourning on his account. Now the William Doman who returned
in the midst of mourning, was the son of an opulent West India
trader, and would, when he arrived at the age of 21, be entitled
to considerable- property. At present his name was registered
among the tiead, and could not be erased until the Minister was
supplied with an affidavit of the facts.
The Magistrate observed, that he never before heard of so sin-
gular a case, and the affidavit being prepared, the Gentleman was
sworn to the truth of its contents.

Andrew Anderson was fully committed for trial, charged with
burghriouly robbing the stable. of Mr. Forbes, at Chelsea. The
property was valued at upwards of ses. Anderson had only been
liberated from Ncwgate on Saturday senniglit.

the Cock and Lion, in Wiginure.street, on when he Wl9 bilktted,
with ill treatment. lie said his sheets bad not been changed for
Iseven weeks, his food was refused to be cooked, and he stated va-
sinus other complaints of a minor nature.—Mr. W. denied the
charge is tote, and said the complainant was treated as one of his fa-
mily, but that his habits were much too effeminate for the honoiw-
able profession of which be was an humble member.—The Magis-
trate dismissed the charge, but hoped Mr. Webb would, in future,
conduct himself with propriety towards those soldiers who might
be bilktted on him.

A poor man summoned a pawnbroker named Nottrell, for the
injury done by the moth to a coat which he had pledged. The

UNION-HALL.
A decent looking woman, who gave her name Mary Beckwith,
applied for the dlagistrate's assistance under these circumstances:
About eight years ago her husband was obliged to leave this coca-
try, on account of his extensive smuggling transactions. She then
resided at Deal, and being greatly distressed, placed her family of
eight children in the workhouse. and obtained her living by needle•
work. Front time to time, as her circumstances admitted of it,
she took the whole of the children out of the workhouse, with the
exception of one, a boy of 13 years of age. She applied to the
0v to have him restored to her, but they treated her appli-
cat indifference. The Magistrate consoled the poor crea-
ture, and presented her with a letter to Mr. Evance, the Recorder
of Deal, who, be had no doubt, would institute an inquiry into the
