OLD hAILFII

On Saturdlay twenty-one prifoners Were tried, one
of whom was capitally convifted,
Sh/thersi, for flealing two pieces of linen* the
property of Mary Gammon, in her dwelling houfe.
H. Wail! was indifted for Reeling two flyer tea
fpoons, in the dwelling houfe of Mrs. Wilkinfon. It
appeared that the profecutrix, who refides in South
Moulton-greet, was applied to on the 12th of Janu-
ary, by two genteel looking men, for a fight of the
lodgings the had to let; and while each endeavoured to
engage the wittwfs in convocation, the heard her plate
rattle at one end of the room r (he inflantly gave the
alarm, and they made off with all fpeed. The prifo-
ner was purfued to Perrot's Hotel, a few doors horn
the houfe, by a Mr. Miller ; where, after leaving his
great coat in the hotel, he came to the door, and
teemed anxious to afcertain the caufe of the uproar :
perfon, however, was identified, and the fpoons
were found in his great coat.—Guilty.
Mrs. Wilkinfon, in firong terms, entreated the
Court to (hew mercy to the prifoner. The Recor-
der anted her whether the interceded through fear,
or of her own accord ? She replied, that the (poke
on her own account, although an application had
been made to her by a perfon calling herfelf the pri-
loner's mother.
He was again indifted for Reeling bank notes to
the amount of 431. from a perfon named Merit*, at
the King's Head in Bear-greet, but on this indie-
ment he was not tried, the firft conviction being fuf-
fici:nt for the ends of publ,c juftice.
Williams Oki was indided for Reeling half a guinea
in gold, a (even Wiling piece, and two fhillings and
fixpence in River' the property of Wm. Gafcoigne.
It appeared that the Profecutor was owner of a
public houfe in Broad-greet, Carnaby Market. On
the 25th of December left, the prifoner went to the
bar, and ordered a pint of Hollands, and chatuge of
a pound note, to be fent to a Gentleman's houfe in
the fame Rivet. The fervant woman was accordingly
feat with the fpirits and the change ; but when flue
arrived within a few yards of the houfe, the prifoner
met her. and took the money laid in the indiftment
from her. He gave her a piece of paper; which had
the appearance of a Bank note, and defired her to
make haße to the houfe with the Hollands, as the
fervent. were waiting for it. He alto defired her to
tell them he had gone to buy fornething to eat, and
would be back in a few minutes. When the woman
got to the houfe, the fervants knew nothing of the
fpirits being ordered; and, on examining the note,
it was found to be a counterfeit of the very worn
kind. The affair relied in this way, and nothing was
heard of the prifoner, until a fhort time ago he was
arrefted on another charge of the fame defcription,
and underwent an examination at Marlborough-ftreet
Office. An account of this appeared in the daily pa
pers, which the Profecutor feetng, he attended at the
Office on the next examination, and identified the
prifoner. He pofitively !wore he could not be mil':
taken in his perfon.
The prifoner made no defence, and the Recorder,
in rimming up the evidence, obfcrved, that this was
not altogether a new fpecies of fraud, nor was the'
prifoner a new face at the bar. The note, he laid,
was a palpable counterfeit; it was made by placing
a good note cn a piece of thin paper, and then, by a
fimple procefs, difeharging part of the ink without
injuring the real note. This would produce foniething
refembling a Bank note, but it could sot be palled
on any perfon who even Rightly call their eyes on it.
The Jury inßantly found the prifoner—Guilty.
1. Bear', F. Berlin, and P. Csitinz, were indifted
for fleeting a box, containing articles of jewellery to
the value of 400 cl. the property of Meffrs Mitchell
and Co.

The prifoners were marjners on board a Weft In•
diarnan, and the box was (hipped by Meals Robin.
fon and Cane, on account of its proprietors. In the
night of the Sib of January, when the chip was off
Portfinouth, the prifoners efcaped from the veffel, and
in the morning it was difcovered that the box was
gone. It was afcertained that they had bent their
eourfe to London, and Bofary was difcovered, by
means of a Wapping damfel, whole perfon he had
prof ufely bedizened with feveral of the articles which
the box contained. He and the lady were of courfe
taken into cuftody, and the was admitted an evidence.
When he was fearched,,a variety of the articles were
found in his potrellion, and a number of duplicates
for thofe he had made away with. Nothing was
found on the other prifoners, but it was proved they
'had all three left the fliip at the fame time. The Jury
found Bnfary Guilty, and acquitted the others.
The following were alto convifted of felonies, viz.
P. Leary, for fteallog a bag of nails, and other things, the goods
of E. Vere ; W. Tomliafon, fur ftealing 7olba. of malls, the property
of -LW; T. A. Vaughan, for (Luling a [beet, the property of

This was an indiament charging the Defendant
with obtaining money under falfe pretences. The
profecutor was Moofieur Bertrand De Maliai, a gen-
tleman, who was the author of the " French Revo.
lotion," and after that was Minifier of the French
Marine. The Defendant was a French Emigrant,
one of the Nobkik. The profecutor came to Eng-
land in tBos. and in 1804 he was introduced to the
defendant ; and the profecutor put into his hands
various Webs of money. Chambonas reprefented
himfelf as member of a club which met at No. 77.
St. James's•fireet, and told the profecutor, if he
could fupply the club with fame good old port, they
would make a good round fum of it. The defendant
fent twenty-five doien, at 455. per dozen, in (malt
quantities, to the houfe of the defendant, who after-
wards told him that the wine was very much liked,
and that he had been paid feventy pounds for it.—
The profit smiling from that was about t9l. and the
profecutor's fbare of that fum was put down to the
credit of the profecutor. The next affair was that
the defendant told the profecutor, that he had an ex-
cellent opportunity of purchafing saoo pieces of linen,
and requefted him to furnith him with as much motor
at potlible, as the greater would be his profit. The
profecutor borrowed pool. which he fent to the defen-
dant. Notwithflanding the fiouriffaing defctiptico of
this trade, the profecutor entertained Come doubts far
the fafety of his money, and It appeared ultimately
that he was deceived. This linen was purchafed ac
a draper'S (bop, and the defendant had no flock, sac
did any trading club exift.
The Jury found the defendant guilty, and dm
Court fentenced him to be imprifoned fix months in
Newgate. Mr. Aris informed the Court that the de-
fendant was in filarfhalfea cuttody to the mount of
Boon!.

flitted that her acquaintance with him began at tbd
late Middlefcx election. Mr. M. proteiled his chef-
tity, and proved that he was at home with his *rife
at the time particularifed. The defendant pert fled
in faying Mr. Moore was the father; but the Jury
difbelieved her, and the was found guilty. Sbe was
fentenced to three months imprifnnment.
