MIDDLESEX SESSJO\s.

HICKS'z, HALL, DFC. s.
Patrick Mooney and jams Sherlock were indicted
for affluiling John Connell.
The parties v, ere all members of a benefit Vciely,
chiefly composed of knights of the thimble, who met at
the Blue Bell public hnnfe, in Cecil•court. Some
months ago their ffrong box was robbed of a font of
money, by the former clerk or fecritary ; but the
theft could not be fufficiently traced to the offender.
The profecutor, who was one of the Stewards, was
very aaive in endeavouring to bring the criminal /0
junice ; In c,.nfequence of which feveral invelligath.ns I
I took place before the Bow ftreet Magiftrates, and
there followed a fort of general convulfion in the
Society. Some of the connituted authorities were
cafhiercd, others degraded, new ones chofen ; and,
as in all cafes of general eletlions, much acrimony
and party fpirit were excited. Altercation followed
altercation, and the Gnddefs of Difcord reigned
with unlimited fovereignty in this once peaceable
community. Upon one of the club nights, while
thefe controver fres fubfifled, the profecutor had been
in the club room ; hut having retired from thence
to the tap, he was followed by the defendants, who
abufed him, and beat kim in a molt violent and un•
provoked manner.
The Defendants were both found Guilty, and fen.
tented to (even days imprifonment in the Houfe of
Cot-ration.

Bow STRIF.T.—A Itale trick was pranifed on Fri-
day, by an elderly man of the name of 1 Anti d Churn,
having the appearance of a farmer, on a Mrs. Jane
Croucher, a widow lady, of Brompton-row, by pre-
tending to find a d:amond croft, the half of the Imo-
duce of which was to be paid to her. Fine was in•
diced to advance 51. all the money the had about
her, and alto to part with her watch, worth 301. in
return for which the crofs was depotited in her hands,
and the man promifed to call upon her, to give her
401. and to return her money and watch, when the/
crofs was to be returned to him to be diffored of.—
The fuppored diamond crofs was foori afterwards
difcovered to be worth no more than iss. informa-
tion was given at Bow-flreet, and Humphries, one of
the patrole, went with Mrs. C. in tearch of the
(windier, whom they accidentally met in Leiceffer
fquate. He was taken to Bow Ricer, where be un
derwent a long examination, in the evening. before
Mr. NAREs, and was committed for further examina
tion. He is near 70 years of age, is an old offender,
and has been tranfported three times.
Some parties connedted with the prifoner, fince his
laft examination, have been endeavouring to prevent
profecutt ix from appearing, by offering to return
her watch and n• to ;—(this, is what is called by
thieves " flailingrar" the evidence)—but the was
prevented from agreeing to this by the interfcreace
of her brother. A 51. note, which was found upon
the priftner proved to be the fame he obtained fir m
the profecutrit. He was yelerday fully committekt.

John Harvey was indicted for violently afraulting
his matter, Mr William Hammond, of Southfleet,
Surgeon and Apothecary. On the part of the profs-
cution it appeared, that on Sunday, the Bth March
lad, Mr. Hammond had returned from vifiting rogue
of his patients, whu were in a dangerous way, and
wanted to fend out Come medicines in great hall e.—
The defendant, who had been formerly his coach-
man, and then his porter, not being in the way, was
fent for to a neighbouring public houfe, and having
delayed longer than was neceffary, in his matter's
opinion, he reprimanded him with Come little warmth
—upon which the Drfendant became infolent, and
demanded his wages, (wearing that he would not
fir till he received them. Mr. Hamniond then took
hold of his collar, Cor the purpofe of turning him
gently out ; but the Cervant immediately Calmed him
with a knock down blow, threw him over a box in
the !urger y, and injured him fo ferioufly, that he was
ill for a length of time with a fpitting of blood. The
Defendant having thus taken his tevenge for the
foppofed it.fult, ran away, and was not apprehended
for Come time after.

I'HE advar.t.age the 'public mull always derive i

clulively their ftudies to one fpecies of malady, was never more
clearly dorneoftrated than "by the unexampled turrets which has
attended the adminiftration of their new remedy, and the extra- i
ordinary cures it has performed; Fora long feriesof years, Meffrs
CURRIS and Co. Surgeons, formerly in his Majefty's ferviee, I
have made the Venereal Weak ths particular objuß of their in- j

Mr. GLIADC, for the Defendant, obferved, that
it was not very likely that Mr. Hammond was in thri
moll calm and unruffled temper in the world at the
time this affray took place. He had five patients at
the point of death at the moment, and withing to
have his medicines fent immediately, and 'the man
delaying rather long, it was not very probable that
he gra& took the defendant by the collar to turn
him out. The fait however was, as he fhould-prove
in evidence, the defendant delaying when the mailer
was in a hurry, the latter flew in a 'age, and, feizing
him by the collar, &ook him violently, and the man
in his own defence was obliged to knock him down.
He then demanded his wages, againtt which there
was a fet-off of bolus's and medicines, and a further
fet-off of the day being Sunday, and no pay-day.
This tranfation took place in the forgery, when the
very implements of the Profecutor's profeifion were
fulficiently terrile, without the aid of the Profecn-
tor's wife and fon (landing over him, the latter with
a petlle brandithed over his head threatening his
denruaion every moment.
This Ratement was in Tome meafure corroborated
by the female fervant of a near neighbour, who was
an eye witnefs to the tranfaftion, law the violence of
the Profecutor, and (wore politively that he gave the

The CHAIRMAN, in charging the Jury, explained
