LOVDO V SESSIOAS.

The London tarter Seffions were held yefferday
at Guildhall.
Aloft: and yudith Levi were ttied upon an india-
ment for keeping a brothel of the vileff dercription,
in Cavendifh-court, Houndfditch. This indictment
had been (landing over two years, and had been put
off from time to time upon vai ions affidavits. From
the names of the parties, it will appear that they
were unworthy branches of the flock of ?Pad, and, as
was hated by the Common SI.RJEANT in his opening
of the cafe, " veterans in infamy and vice, who, tot-
tering en the brink of the grave, might rather have
been lupporcd anxious to prepare for futurity, than
to he found carrying on, almoff in the loft flage of
dotage, this infamous traffic." Mores ftated himfelf
to be four (core ; and Judith, though tomewhat more
juvenile, had conliderably dillanced her grand c.'imac-
kric. The place they had chofen to carry en their
trade was exactly fronting the door of a Charity
School for the education of female children, whom it
was the main object of their guardians to train up to
virtuous induflry ; but before whore eyes fo vile an
example, daily and nightly exhibited, muff have the
wo• a tendency.
By the advice of their Counfel, Mr. KNAPP, both
the culprits, though with great reluilance, pleaded
guilty ; and the Court contented to furpend its judg-
ment, on their entering into recognizance to quit
their habitation, and abandon their profellion.

Holger Bramlty was charged with affaulting and
ohflrudling, in the execution of his duty, William
Kimber, a peace officer, of the Ward of Fart ingdon
Without, on the night of the 4th of Novembar
From the evidence for the profecution, it appeared,
that on the night in queßion, a perfon named Snell.
grove, the mate of an Eall lndiaman, had been taken
into charge by the watch, for Come riotous conduEl
in palling through Nevegate-Ilreet ; and as the watch-
man, with a peace officer, were conveying him to the
Ponkry Compter, they were met nearly oppotite to
the New London Tavern, in Cheaplide, by Mr.
Bramley, whom the evidence Rated to be then a
little inebriated. He asked the watchman. 4' where
they were taking that gentleman ?" One of the
watchmen anfwered,-44 What buftnefs is that of
yours ? If you want to know, come and fee."—
Mr. Bramley anfwered, It. was not for fuch rafcals
as thefe to drag a gentleman along the tlreet in
that manner ; and that he would go and fee him
righted. He went along with the watchman until
they came near the Poultry, when he went before the
man who had Snellgrove in hold, and Paid he fhould
not take him any further, and kicked the profecutor
on the thins. Upon which Snellgrove, finding a per-
fon In refolutely diipofed to refcue him, and who
Riled himfelf a Freeman and a Liveryman of Lon-
don, became extremely troublefome, and endeavour-
ed, by force, to extricate himfelf from the cutlody of !
the peace officer ; but being overpowered, he at
length went nt, peaceably to the Compter, whether
Mr. Bramley went alfo, and was charged by the
peace officer with the alrault. He was detained in
cutmody about ten minutes ,• but on his giving his
same and addrefs, and depofitirig his gold watch as
fecurity for his appearance before the Magillrate next
day, he was liberated. On appearing next morning
before Alderman Domville, drat Magillrate tlrongly
advifed Mr. Bramley to make up the matter, by
giving the profecutor half a guinea for his trouble.
But he 'potitively refuted, and walled the matter to
come before a Jury of hi. fellow Citizens, that he
might have an opportunity of publicly vindicating
his charaEter.
The Jury, however, found Mr. Bromley Guilty.
The ltsc,ankp., in piling the fentence of the'
Court, animadverted with much leverity upon the
condit& of the D:fendant, who, as a London Mer-
chant, and one of the Livery, !horrid 11.44,-e known
better than to interfere in fuch an affair. However,
it u' as not the with of the Court to deprive him of his
liberty, by confining his pet fon, under all the cir-
cumitanccs, he was lentenetd to pay a lute of ten

pound•.
The Defendant then declared, he amid not hive
interfeied, hut that he thone,lit it a cafe of violence
and extortion. He then paid the fine .And dif
charged.
Dr. Stephenfon,an infolvent debtor, applied by his

Connfel, Meas. ALLVY and GLEADF, to be brought
up, in order to be difcharged under the late Al.
Mr. B'LLAAD, on behalf of Mr. Heffe, a creditor,
refitted this application, on the grounds, that in a
fait in the Court of Char'cery, between thefe parties,
Mr Hee had charged the infolvent with a fraud,
which he had not anfwered ; and, therefore, until
that queition was inveiligated, the Com t could not
difcharge him.
The Couit were of opinion that they could not
intetfore, and the bultnefs Rands over for next 3cl-
/ions.

ELiIPEM r.—Saturday a Warrant Officer of one
of his Majelty's (hips lately arrived at Porifmouth,
from a Foteign itati'm, appeared at the Police Office
in the Borough, charging a Landfiran with towing
away his wife. It appeared that the fun of Neptune,
nn his r,turn home, was rapturoufly received by his
feemingly loving wife, and he liberally encountered
her kindnef, pouring into her lap the produce of his
toils. His happinels, however, was but of Ilion du-
ration, for, during a temporary vifit to Iris (hip, his
frail helpmate packed up all his little treafure, and
eloped with the perfOn who was the fubjeCt of his
charge.—The Magittrates being of opinion that the
cafe was fitter for difeuffion in the Court of King's
Bench, or Dators' Commons, than before a Bench
of Magifirates, advifed the injured huThand to apply
to any one of aide tribunals for redrefs, and dif
miffed his complaint.

Saturday morning at fix o'clock, fixteen prifoners,
under fentence of tranfportation, and of death, but
who were reprieved, were conveyed on board the
Retribution hulk at Woolwich. Thofe who received
fentence of death, go for life r, the remainder for
feveral periods.
On Saturday morning a Banker's Clerk in the
City underwent a private examination before. the
LORD MAYOR, charged with embezzling the proptr, y
of his employers, to a very confiderable amount.—
He was cc mmitted for further inquiry.

Yeflerday, at the Public Office, Halton Garden,
J. Scarlet charged Aun Knowhind. alias Malon, with
robbing his wife of a quantity of wearing apparel,
which fhe had pledged, and which were produced
by fcveral pawnbrokers. She was fully committed
for ttial.

Mr. Munden had the mifchance to lofe his purfe
out of his dreffing-room, on Friday night, at Covent
Garden Theatre, containing near tcl. in gold, while
he was performing in The Seisml of Reform.
Early on Saturday morning the houfe of Mr. Reed,
dilliller, in Alderfgate flreet, was broke open, and
robbed to a confiderable amount. The thieves railed
a ladder at the back of the premifes, and entered the
drawing room window. From thence they proceeded
to the dining room, and took from the fide-board near
401. worth of plate. They then went down flairs,
opened the counting-houfe door, forced the deiks,
and took what they could find of value. In one of
defks they difcovered the key of the iron chef,
which they opened, but fortunately no cafh had been
depofited there the preceding day. Having pulled
out all the papers, and flrewed the floor with ac-
count books, they decamped, carrying with them
from to to re gallons of brandy, in addition to the
plate and other articles of property they found upon
the premifes. It is manifelt the villains mutt have
had a previous knowledge of the premifes, or they
could not have proceeded fo regularly in their pillage,
or known where to find the keys which opened the
doors leading from one office to the other.
Thurfday, John Robinfon, of Barnhy, near Whit-
by, farmer, and a tenant under the Right Hon. Lord
Mulgrave, was fent from Whitby to York Cafile, to
take his trial at the enfuing affizes for the murder of
Sufan Wilfrn, his maid fel yam. It appears fhe had
left her place fume time fince, and was gone to live
with her friends at Guiflaorough, but had been mif-
fing more than fix weeks, when, at lag, her body
was found on Good Friday, buried in fome part of
her matter's ground.
