MARLDOROUCH-STIMP.T.—.T. Ilfrckan was charged with being a
deserter from the Hon. East India Company Service. A simi.
lar charge was made against him by a Strjeant of the Tower'
Hamlets Militia, who prayed to have the prisoner delivered up to
him ; he having enlisted and deserted from them, previously to
engaging in the East India Service. A difficulty arose whether,
the Tower Hamlets Militia being disembodied, he could be
deemed a deserterLandsacondly, whether the Mutiny Act ap-
plied to any but the King's forces? After much inquiry, it was
discovered that an Act was passed its 1817, specially to punish
Militiamen enlisting in the Company's service, under which the
prisoner was committed to hard labour for six months.
G maraca La.—The Overseers of St. Faith's Parish were charged
with refusing relief to J. Bowman, a healthy man, aged 36. The
Overseers stated, that in their small parish there were half a
dozen other paupers in the same situation as the complainant.—
He had been chargeable, together with his wife and child, since
January, Mel. Two situations had been found for him, but.
he refused to go, and latterly be had been farmed out with Mr.
Sutton, at Islington, at 14s. 6d. per week. Finding he was
quite content to remain in idleness, and the parish having lately
entered into a contract with Messrs. 'Thornton, of Maiden-lane,
to find employment far their poor, they had proposed to give
him constant employment there. and provide for his family in
the workhouse, or allow him 6s. a week for their maintenance.
The employment was breaking flints ar.d granite, and was
scarcely hard work, as there was a knack in it of finding the
vein of the stone, which was acquired in two or three days, and
a man might earn 2s. a day ; but he positively refused to go.
If paupers refusing this work could claim to be supported in
idleness, there was no saying to what extent parochial relief
might be demanded. The complainant ph-aded an injury he
received some years ago, but he did not mention it till he was
desired to work. At all events they wished him to make a trial.
Alderman Baowt: highly commended the plan adopted, and dis-
missed the complaint.
On the 27th ult. the premises of Mr. Laurie, mapaeller, in
Fleet-street, were found open at three o'clock in the morning,
and £7O were missed from the desk. Suspicion fell on Charles
Robinson, the errand-buy ; but, after several examinations, he
was discharged, and all hopes of discovery had been given up,
when, on Tuesday morning, two sweeps applied at Mr. Laurie's,
as from Brown, of Water-lane, who was usually employed, and
were directed to come again on Friday morning ; but the shop.
mats meeting Mr. Brown in the street, finally fixed that he-
should send his men on Thurstk.y instead. Accordingly on that
morning one of Brown's boys did sweep the chimney, and found
in the copper flue a small bag containing 48 sovereigns, which
was recognized to be that stolen from the desk. The application
of the two sweeps was then remembered, and Harrison, the
Marshalman, was in attendance when they came on Friday, and
secured them, as also Charles Robinson, who was found watch-
ing on the other side of the way. The elder sweep said they
were met by Robinson in the Strand, who promised them two
sovereigns if they would bring him a bag in the kitchen chimney,
and told them to say they came from Mr. Brown. The bag and
its contents were identified by Mr. Laurie. Alderman Bitows
advised Robinson to employ the interval before his trial in pre-
paring for the worst, and fully committed him.
Mansion-House—Elisabeth Goldsmith, and Esther Roper, were
charged with robbing W. Hall of a bag containing £l6O. The
complainant, a countryman, was accosted in LeadenhaU-street
by two females, who after inquiring where he was going, aces
asked him to give them some gin. He agreed to do so, and they
led him to a house at which they said he could get it. Upon en-
tering the door, a demand of three shillings was made, for what,
he could not conceive, he said, not knowing it was a brothel.
When, however, lie began to surmise bow it was, he threw down
a shilling, and said he would go, being a family man. But while
Ire was descending the stairs, one of the ladies thrust her hand in
laia pocket, and stole his money-bag. He cried out that he was
robbed of £2O, which Mrs. Goldsmith, the landlady, bearing,
vociferated, " Go it !" upon which the girl ran off with great
speed. The Solicitors who attended for the prisoners, said they
should be able to prove an alibi.—Remanded.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION TO GENTLEMEN.—It
computed that about one in three lose their Hair, or
become grey, before the age of forty. This arises from various
causea : fevers, accouchements, debility, Irregular living, power-
ful medicines, study, perspiration, anxiety of mind, change of
climate, &c. destroy the Hair, in the same way as an extreme
drought destroys vegetation ; for Hair, though an animal matter
grows in a vegetative manner. This was first discovered by Cul-
peper, the famous Botanist, who prepared his Specific, since
