were to take up at the places they stopped at.

Aldgate to Temple-bar • be had hoed a dozen already, bit he found
it produced no effect. he hoped what be new said would go to the
Public, and not be disregarded, as the practice of obstructing the
greets must said should be put aunts to; it was rhinini- to the trades-
men of the City, and annoying to the passengers. He al'is wished
to give notice to those who weist with trucks and dogs, that they

would rot be allowed to obstruct the passage by stopping. As giv-
ing notice was his present object, he would convict in the lowest

Slitereett, charged with veering some of the Birmingham notes
stolen frown the Balloon coach, was again brought up, when in ad-
dition to the former charges of uttering three of them, on which he
already stands committed, the following were adduced :—On the
19th uk. he purchased, at the shop of Mr. Pemberton, linen-draper,
in St. John's-street, a piece of Irish linen, which he paid for with
a 5/. note' and received the change, and which was afterwards
proved to be one of the stolen notes. In this case he gave his ad-
dress Stephen Hardy, 25, Gray's Inn-lane. The other case was
preferred by Mr. Tyers, a draper, in the Minories, who stated that
on the 22d ult. the prisoner went to his shop, and, representing
himself as a pedlar, looked out goods to the amount of 3/.134.6d.
and tendered another note of this description. Mr. Tyen, not liking
country mites, went out to consult a neighbour, and, during his ab-
sence, the prisoner said he feared be should be too late for the stage,
and departed, adding, he would call another time for the change,
but never returned. In this case the address he gave was, J. Wil-
liams, 23, Nelson-street, Stepney. By the advice of his nlicitor,
he declined making any defence ; and was fully committed on both
charges, in addition to the three former ones.

NOVIL AND EXTRAORPINA RY Mona or Famin.—Saturday, John
Mimes, alias Hail, a cheeacmonger, residing for the last two years
in Wheeler-street, Spitalfields, was placed at the bar before Mr.
Twrroan, under a charge of as singular a kind in its intention, anal
of as fraudulent a one in its operation, as ever before occupied the
attention of a Police Magistrate. The facts, as they appeared, were
these:—On Friday last, the prisoner took a cellar from ?.Jr. John
Murrell, No. 10, North-street, Finsbury, which he engaged for
two months, at the rate of 2s. per week, under a pretence that he
required it as a store for butter, bacon, and cheese. He then
went to Mr. Wm. Tipping, No. 14, High-street, Borough, an ex-
tensive wholesale cheesemonger, from whom he purchased two sides
of bacon. two firkins of butter,and a large Cheshire cheese, amount-
ing to £9. 12% 4id. and ordered them to be sent with a bill and
receipt to his newly-taken stores. Mr. Tipping's porter delivered
them, and after the prisoner received the property, he banded the
porter five good sovereigns, with some change, and a quantity of
parcels neatly tied up, resembling five shilling cartridges of penny-
pieces, and corresponding so exactly in appearance and weight, as
induced the porter, without farther examination, to consider that
all was right. However, on the way home, the precious parcels re-
ceived some injury by the carriage; and upon their delivery they
were found to be nothing but narrow bars of old lead, so doubled,
as when covered with paper to bear the appearance of penny-
pieces.—Reruanded.
