MAtissoft-Hoftge.---Htoftwoo Rftmetr.—Yester-
day Joke Lyses, a desperate character, was charged
with assaulting Mrs. C. Pike, on the King's high-
way, and taking from her person a lace veil, and a
ridicule, containing a purse with a quantity of silver,
a handkerchief, a silver clasp, some trinkets, and
other articles. The prosecutrit deposed, that between
the boors of nine and ten o'clock on the evening of
the 27th of July last, she was retaining home through
Whitechapel, accompanied by two other Ladies,
when they were suddenly stopped by the prisoner.—
Her companions, terrified at his conduct, fled, and
she being left alone, the prisoner maltreated her, and
succeeded in carrying off the property in question.
An alarm, however, being given, he was pursued,
and though his coat was seized by a by-stander, he
effected his escape. Information of the transaction
was immediately given to the City Officers, and a
warrant issued for his apprehension, but he was not
discovered until Saturday last. Mrs. Rigg, a re-1
spectable woman, who witnessed the robbery, fully
identified the person of the prisyner. The latter,
however, in his defence, denied in violent terms all
knowledge of the crime with which he was charged.
He admitted that he passed that way on the evening
stated, but launched forth into a torrent of abuse and
invective against his 44 perjured" prosecutors, declar.
bog that he woeld never: be conveyed to trial alive !
This outrageous conduct, however, was shortly sub-
dued, and the prisoner was remanded for a final

examination. -

was charged by Mrs. Mary Murphy, who stated that
on the night of the 29th of last month, about eleven
o'clock, the prisoner, accompanied by two men, ful.
lowed her from Shoe-lane into Field-lane, when the
witness asked a watchman to see her homet.which he
refused ; the prisoner then, with his companions, im-
mediately came up, snatched ber shawl from her
neck, her bonnet from her head, a gown tied up in a

At the last Manchester Sessions, Samuel Norwell
was convicted of exposing his wife for sale, with a
halter round her neck—he was sentenced to six
month's imprisonment.
Friday ✓ohs Chieholm was executed at the new drop,
Exeter, for forging a Navy Bill. The unhappy man
was attended by the Rev. Mr. CHAVIL. He seemed
perfectly resigned to his fate, and after praying most
fervently for about ten minutes• he gave the fatal
signal, and was no more.
Yesterday se'nmght, in the evening, the driver of
Harwood's Tiverton waggon, (a lad about 16 or 17
years of age) was found robbed and murdered near
the White Ball, on the Wellington-road. It is sup-
posed that the murderer threw the lad down and
choaked him, by holding his fingers on his throat till
he was dead ; for, on the strictest cxamination by se-
veral surgeons, no signs of violence could be disco-
vered, except the mark of a thumb and finger on his
neck, a little below the chin. The amount stolen
from the deceased was a £1 note and some silver.

Sunday se'nnight, about four o'clock in the mor-
ning, a Shocking murder was committed on the per-
son of Thomas Anderson, at the house of William
Jerome, near the 'Wiltshire Halfway Houses,
Portsea. On an investigation of the circumstances
before R. CALLAWAY, Esq. Coroner, it appeared chat
the deceased came to Jerome's house at the hour
above mentioned, to demand some clothes he had
called for the preceding afternoon, but which Mrs.
Jerome refused to give him. He knocked or threw a
stone at the shutters, upon which the prisoner, George
Jerome, a son, get out of bed and opened the win.
dow, from which he saw a person run round the cor-
ner. He returned to his bed, barring the window sash
up. In a short time the deceased returned, and
knocked or threw stones a second time, upon which
George Jerome again went to the window, and, with-
out speaking, fired off a gun, which had been loaded
the preceding night, and Anderson fell instantly.—
After a very long deliberation the Jury returned a
verdict of Wilful Murder against the mother and son,
the latter for shooting, the tortlier for aiding and abet-
ting, and on Thursday they were committed to the
county gaol, at Winchester. The deceased was son-
, in-law to Jerome.

Thursday night, Mr. Branchouzse, a master taylor
is Finsbury-square, went to bed in a good state of
_health, but, about eleven o'clock, his family were
alarmed by hearing him cursing and uttering the
most extraordinary exclamations, foaming at the
month, and tearing in pieces every thing about him.
In this shocking state of phrenzy he continued till he
died about four o'clock.

Friday se'nnight, a fine lad, 15 years of age, son to
Mr. John Lewis Fitzmaurice, of Tralte, was unfor-
tunately drowned, while bathing in the Canal, near
that town.

Saturday se'nnight, as Mr. Parkes, of Holly-h. 411,
near Dudley was breaking the flint of a fowling piece,
his son, abcitiffifteen, incautiously stood at the mouth,
when a spark catching the priming, is went off, and
caused his immediate death.
