Maticesdx.Houss.--Testerday Mr. .11:PAllunt was finalis/52,11
, tMed on the charge of forging Eats lorilaWarrants. The depci-
iltions on the former elimination were read over, and he refit;
sing to enter into any defence, was committed for trial.
UNGRATEFUL ilosarai.—eur Readeri will recollect the case
published in the STAG last week, of a country boy, named Allen
chell,who was robbed on his way to town to seek his fortunes
under circumstances of great aggratation, by a lad named
son, whom he generously relieved. The latter was brought up
for final examination yesterday,when a remarkable circumstance
to* place. An eminent &Meteor, who had transacted busluess
several years ago for the celebrated Bob Allen, the brewer, the
greatest " whip" °Chia day,reongnised the prosecutor as the ille-
gitimate son of his dashing client, and at once took the young
fellow tni ler his protection. "The poor young man, at themoment
he -WA wi h ti's friend, 1:a 1 ndt a farthing in his pocket. The
Solicitor some years ago recovered the s• • • of •ES,OOO for the
prosecutor's mother, to whom Mr. Allen had been touch at-
tached, which sum had been left to ber, scrawled on a piece of
paper tin his death-bed by that gentleman. Atkinson was fully
cimmitted for trial.
GUILDMALL.—John ,Tenon, a workman in the empty of Mr.
Walker, smith, in Harp-alley, Shoe-lane, was brought up before '
the sitting Magistrate, Alderman Scooter, by Catirriqh, a City
offiCetwovito had taken him into custody upon the following charge :
Copsey and Weeks, fellow-workmen with the priscinor, had
occasionally to go into the room in the manufactory where Sut-
ton usually worked, and perceived his drawer partly open, and
a considerable quantity of smoke issuing therefrom, which, on
their inquiring, be at first said proceeded from the 'pop below,
but subsequently attributed to his having an article nealing
therein in some saw-dust. They suspected, at the time, that he
was telling them an untruth, but he shut the drawer, and pre.
' vented their satisfying themselves on the subject. Upon their
quitting the room, Copsey chanced to look back, and saw the
prisoner in the act, of battering a pewter pint pot, which con-
firmed bis suspicion that the smoke they bail observed proceeded
from the melting of pewter. They consulted with the foreman,
and it was agreed, as several pots had been missing front the
manufactory, to give notice of the circumstance to Mr. Wuolter-
too, who keeps the Crown and Anchor public-house, New-street-
bill, where the workmen were in the habit' of dealing for their
porter. Mr. Woolterton and Cadman, the officer, soon arrived,
but in the interim Copsey, observing the prisoner run up stairs,
and suspecting he was about to hide the metal, fa/lowed, and
caught him with the battered pint pot in his apron. Before the
Magistrate, Mr. Woolterton stated that he had called at the ma-
nufactory about half an hour before for his pots, when the pri-
soner told him they had none of bis, for his boy had been there
that miming, and taken them all away. As is usual in cases of
fenny, Cadman, after securing his prisoner, went to search his
(edgings, where he found from twenty to thirty pawnbrokers'
duplicates, all of them for working-tools, which it is suspected,
he had stole.' from the manufactory, as a great Humber of tools,
some the property of Mr. Walker, and others belonging to dif-
ferent workman, had lately been missing,. The prison( had 1110.•
thing to offer in his defence, nor could he plead, although he has
a wife and four children, distress, or even necessary, as an ex-
cuse for his conduct, as, by the statement of Mr. Walker's fore-
man, it appeared he was hi constant employ, a good workman,
and could, if he chose-, earn four guineas a week, but that he
seldom earth half the rnoney, preferring, it ,ho-ld seem, to sup-
ply the deficiency by these petty depredation!.
In order to give Mr. Walker and the workmen an opportu-
nity to make the necessary inquiries as to the tools pledged by
the prisoner, he was remanded.
MARLEOROUGM-STREET.—A Gentleman of fortune at the west
end of the town, applied at this Office on Thursday se'tinight,
fur a warrat t against a dashing Manager of a Minor Theatre,
for a fraud, in having obtained L'i 2:0, upon pretence of obtain-
ing for deponent a situation in his Majesty's Band of Gentlemen
Pensioners. Upon inquiry it appeared there was no such situa-
tion vacant, and the applicant having learned chat the party was
about to quit the country immediately, was particularly anxious
that the warrant should he executed withot:t delay. In a very
few hours a coafictnitial officer contrived to take the Manager
into custody, who upon his arrest immediately deposited the
amount in cash to ;wide the eecis:on of the Magistrate. The
parties shortiy after appeared at the Office, with their Solicitors,
and a private examination being requested, the Magistrate en-
tered his private room with the Solicitors. Here, z..fter a con-
siderable time, a compromise was effected, the money returned
to the gentleman at whose suit the warrant was issued, and the •
Manager set at liberty. One of the parties has since gene to Italy.
Bove-riatter.l erterday, P. OsbJriae was charzed with steal-

UNION-HALL.—Yesterday, Grady, the toll-collector on the
Surrey side of the Wa:erloo-britige, was summoned under the
58th of Geo. fl 1. cap. 23, for having ill gaily obv.ructed Mr.
Marshall, a professional Gentlewan, in pa•sing through the gate.
Mr. Marshall stared, that some days ago he had occasion to
go into the Strand. On arriving at the AVaterloo-gate he found
he had no cash about him but some farthings, which he had kept
for the amusement of his children, and on tendering four of
them for the penny roll, the defendant, with much abuse, re,
fused to pass him through ; and the complainant was compelled
to borrow a penny at a neighbouring tavern, before the defendant
would admit him to pats she gate.

The defendant denied having used abusive language towards;
Mr. Marshall ; but admitted that hr had refused to allow him to
pass the toll, nn the supposition that he was not bound to re-
ceive the farthings in lieu of a penny.

. .
The Magistrate, on referring to a clause in the above Act, be,
formed the defendant that he had subj:cted himself to a penalty
cf 51. for his misconduct to the complainant, %silo, he saki, had
been exceedingly ill tteated.
\ The defendant pleaded hard for a mitigation of the perillty,
having, he said, a wife and seven children wholly dependent on
him for support.
Mr. Marshall interceded for him, and the Magistrate, in con-
aideration of the family, and also the recommendation of the
'complainant, sentenced the defendant to pay the mitigated pe-
nalty of U. and costs.
A N,aval Officer, who had lost an arm in the service, was
charged by his wife with grossly ill using her. The Magistrate
made some very severe observations on the defendant'a conduct,
and ordered him to be confined till he could produce good bail
for his appearance at the Sessions.
Mrs. Barnard, the relation cf Mrs. Sarah Crouch, whose dead
body was suspected 'o have been stolen by a fellow named John
Cousins, with whom she lived, appeared before the Magistrates,
and complained that Cousins had been to her house and claimed
the coffin of her friend as his property; and, in consequence of
her having refused to give it to hint, be had collected a mob
about her house, and insulted hea in the most indecent manner.
She therefore begged for advice.
The Magis rate told her that the better way would be to take
out a warrant against him, if he broke the peace; aud, with re-
spect to the c.itfin, he ordered one of the officers to fetch it away,
and deposit it at the hack of the Office, till further search bad
been made for the body.
An officer accordingly went to York-street, and brought away
the coffi.i, after having me: with considerable opposition,
