The prisoner was waited on by two girls, named 'fatnall and Odes,.
who said they found the now a bag Coppice-row. and re-
quested Mrs. Dynan to purchase them. Mrs. Dynan kept the
notes to ascertain if they were genuine; and endeavoured to canoed
herself from the two girls when they called for the value. Seurat-
persons appeared and laid claim to the notes, but the one who ap-
pears to have the clearest title was a shoemaker, who fell dowse
after leaving Bagnigge Wells; several girls' surt-cunded him, and
Giles was recognized to be one of them. Mrs. Dynan *as thee
admitted an evidence, and although she had before denitd the puvJ
chase, she now admitted it; but the Alderman considering these
would be no convicrion if he sent the girls fur trial, discharged ag!.
the parties, and directed the money to be restored to the owner.•

Two young girls, servants of Mrs. Westall, of Blackfriarreotifc
charged their mistress with attempting to poison them. It appeared
that the girls had an unconquerable penchant fog spirits. and Mrs:
W. having frequently missed her liquors, resolved to trap the
thieves, and infused a no very gentle dose of tartar emetic into some
gin, which was left on the sideboard, and which the damsels unwit-
tingly swallowed, getting their pains for their labour. The caw,
plaint was discharged.
IIARLBOROUGII-STREET.
Yesterday, a middle-aged woman was brought to the Office by
Ballard, one of the officers, upon charges of fraud and felony. ie
having obtained from Mr Towns, who keeps a china and glass
warehouse in Great Tichfield-street, Mary-la-bonne, and Mr.
Rochfort, of Brewer-street, various articles, under false pretences.
&int asked by Mr. Dem, the Sitting Magistrate, what she bad
to say ? she answered, that she was driven by the, deepest distress
to the commission of the offences charged against her. She had
lived respectably ; but her husband, who had been a gardener,
having died about nine months ago, and left her with Fcatcely
any means, she had latterly become so' distressed, that she was
forced, by sheer necessity to do what she had done. She had, she
said, formerly lived for a considerable time in the service of 'the
Marquis of Sligo. She was committed for trial.

Letters from Leghorn, Trieste, and Ancona, state,
;in a positive manner, that Patras was delivered up to
the Greeks on the 6th of February, on certain. condi-
tions, which are, however, not stated.
An article in a Petersburgh Paper denies that Spain
:is sending any Commissioner to Russia at the present
juncture, or that Russia has formed any secret treaty
.with Spain relating to military aid.
The following is an extract from a letter received form
on Officer of his Majesty's ship Maidstone, dated Sierra
Leone, February 3 :
" I regret saying this place is dreadfully unhealthy ;
,and at Cape Coast you cannot move without either seeing
dead Ashantees unburied, or some of the Fantee people,
who had died in the town, left only half buried. Nut a,
'man belonging to us is permitted to sleep out of the
'ship, or go on shore, except on duty ; the consequence
is, we have not one man on the sick list with either
dysentery, fever, or any infectious disorder whatever.—
The Ashantee war is now completely at an end. They
have returned to the capital with the remnant of a mi-
serable army, suffering from dyseistery, famine, smal:-
pox, and being dreadfully harassed in their retreat by
the Queen of Akim, and a very powerful Chief, the heal
of the Bentookies.—The Maidstone has released on the
coast nearly 2,000 poor wretched blacks; oue vessel,
120 tons, had 336 men and boys, and 141 women and
girls; the men's room was only about 20 feet square,,
and three feet two inches high ; the women had a place
nine feet aft, 18 feet forward, and four feet high.
For many years past the crime of horse-stealing has
not been so prevalent as at present. In addition to several new
cases that have been made known within the last few days, them
.are now no less than thirty notices 'and informations on the books or
Botv.sereet Mice alone, for the recovery of geldings, mares, Mlles,
