Thomas Laois, driver of the Bath teeth, No. 5,847, appeared to
a charge of negligently driving sod running over a lamb.
Thomas Wood, a drover, stated that he was going along New-
gate-street, with a drove of thirty lambs, on last Monday fortnight,
when he found himself before the Bath coach, which was coming
so fast on him, that he was obliged to jump out of the way; in so
doing, two of the lambs ran back, and the coachman, instead of
pulling up, drove on, and wen; over sine of the lambs; this he con-
sidered to have been negligently done. The lamb was so much in-
jured, that he immediately cut its throat, and got it dressed by a
butcher, and sold it. It originally cost 255. and the dffierence, in-
cluding what he got for it, amounted tolls. ed.--if this sum were
paid, he was satisfied.
The martian denied that it was done through negligence, and
seemed rather reluctant to pay.
The Alderman said that he should pay the half of the its. 0.
land the expenses, which would be as. 9d. or otherwile he wouM
enforce the fine for negligently driving.
Coachee consented to this, and the money was paid.
BOW-STREET.
Farr Falllo4.—David Bryan was charged before Mr. Bins
with having stolen a gold repeater, and other articles, the property
of Daniel Hickey.
David Bryan is—or rather cos, groom to Colonel Stanhope,
the 17th Lancers, and Daniel Hickey is groom to David Latouclte,
Esq. David Bryan and Daniel Hickey have been comrades toge-
ther in the army, and the hardships they have undergone, and the
fun they have had together in many different parts of the world,
had made them fast friends. If David was in luck, it was no luck
to David unless Daniel shared it ; and if Daniel met with a sky-fall, '
David was sure to be the better for it. Wednesday last David went
to Daniel, at his place in Blandford-mews, and said to him," 'Faith,.
Daniel, but there's an order of idly-adios, and the warrant's out
agen me, and I wants a place to hide my head in till my master
comes to town to settle it." Daniel was sorry to hear this, and in-
stantly offered David an asylum in the hay-loft ; and in the evening,
David made his bed among the hay, and went to sleep there. Next
morning, Daniel went up into the hay-loft with some breakfast for
his friend David, Wit David was gone, andcwith him Daniel's gold
repeater, and many articles of toggrry, too tedious to be here slit
down. Then Daniel (addled one of his master's horses and went
lb pursuit of David; and after having rode, day by Say, almost
all over London, he met David upon Westminster-bridge yesterday
morning. David took to his heels the moment Daniel saw him, I
and would have escaped, but Daniel took to his tongue, and cried,
" Stop thief !" and David was stopped by one of the hone patrol
who was passing that way. " Deevel burn me, but this is bad luck!"
said the breathless pavld, and so it war, for Daniel's gold repeater',
Was found in his fob, and Daniel's stable jacket on his back; and
Daniel's shoes upon his feet: and in his breeches pocket 'were
pawnbrokers' tickets for all the rest of Daniel's property.
When the Magistrate asked David what he had to say in excuse
for this barefaced ingratitude? David assured him that there was
not a bit of ingratitude in it," For," said he, " Daniel told me he'd
anent his master's bay-money, and asked me to pledge the things to
make it up ; apd surely I did, but before I got back to him I tum-
bled into a public-house, and fell upon some drink, and the drink
got the better of me, and the money was missing, and I was
ashamed to go back to him till I got it again. Some friends I. had,
gave me money yesterday, and I got the watch out of pawn, and
was bringing it to him when he met me."
" Thee, why did you run away from him r said the Magistrate.
This question completelY bothered David. He had no-answer at
all ; and he was committed to Newgate for trial.
MARLBOROUGH-STREET.
The widow of the late Mr. Harris, in company-wash • likestle-
man same to the ce yesterday, fee the rosnose •of convoking
idaffistratens (the proper way of obtaining fur Mrs. Harris
toe thane al the proceeds arising from the exhibition of the balboa.
r Mee thedeamet stated that Mr. Harris and the Committee had
entered into a bend, in which it was agreed that they were to share
the profits amen them. The Committee had exhibited the balloon
for a tong time, and must have drawn considerable sums for it;
but the widow had received but a trifle of the profits. She there-
fere wished the Magistrates to give directions that she should be
paid her due share ; or, if that could not be done, that he would
grant an injunction to prevent the exhibition of the ball oon.
Mr. Roe said that a Justice of the Peace had no power to grant
an injunction; and that any directions or advice might be of little
use, as be had no power to enforce them. If an injunctioo were
required she must apply to the Lord Chancellor; but he thought
the best way would be to apply to her attorney for advice. He had
no jurisdiction in the case.
