POLIBE.

A ferpeEtable tradefman from the Ciy, and one
from Soho, were yelterday charged at Bow-(greet,
with having uttered counterfeit &filings to a confi-
derable amount. Richard Tanner, a dealer in Welch
flannel, in New Town, Montgomeryfhire, dated, that
he had confiderable dealings with one of the prifoners
in the City ; and laft May, when he was in London,
he applied t 3 him to fettle his account, when iarious
modes were propofed, but none to his fatisfatiinn,
till the tradefman from Soho offered to lend twenty
pounds in (killings, which he agreed to take, and
fettle the account. On his taking them,home, they
all proved to be counterfeit. He made feveral ap-
plications to get them taken again, but all proved in
vain, which induced him to apply to an attorney in
King's Bench Walk, Temple, who referred him to
the Solicitor of the Mint, who took his information,
and yellerday Rivett and Parkes apprehended the
prifoners. On fearching their premifes they found in
the City fixteen counterfeit (billings wrapped in brown
paper, in the defk in the counting 'mule ; and at the
houfe in Soho they found a deal box with about 601.

Thrum HALL.—An information was heard yeller-
day before RICHARD CARPENTER SMITH, Efq. and
T. BROADLEY, refpeaing the feizure of two
China counterpanes. called I'elampores, found in
the (hop of Mr. Melton, a pawnbroker, in Bridge-
Road, Lambeth. The profecution was carried on
by the Commidioners of the Cußoms ; and, it ap-
pears from the evidence of one of the officers, that
having information that the counterpanes in queflion
were expofed for fate, he went to the (hop, when Mr.
Melton very readily handed them over to him, and
expreffed his ignorance that they were contraband.
A Solicitor attended on behalf of Mr. Melton, and
took an objeaion to the form of the infra mation,
which charged him with having k harboured, kept,
and concealed," whereas, in fact, as appeared from
the evidence of the officer, he had not done any fuch
thing, for he had fworn that Mr. M. had expofed
them to fale, without ever being confcious that he
was infringing., the laws. He therefore f» omitted,
that under this contradiaion between the evidence
and the wording of the information, the Defendant
was entitled to an acquittal.
The Magiflrates, after looking at the information,
were of the fame opinion, and the information was
quafhed.

ful a Ran I agyinfl the impotition of fines, for not at-

teer, and who eventually obtained the judgment of
the Court of King's Bench in his favour, was firm.
mooed for not complying with the Azi of Parliament,
requiring him to furnifh his waggon and honks for
the conveyance of troops. The ground of objeaion
to the non-compliance with this rcquilitirn wa., that
die and fufficient notice had n•-n been ferved upon
him. The Magiltr.ttes, however, upon loi.king into
the Aft, found that it exprefsly direas, that perfons
liable to furnifh conveyances, arc bound to furnifh
them upon the immediate demand ; they were there-
fore under the neceffity of infliting the penalty,
namely, 403.
Monday, at the Police Office, Q2een fquare,

the preceding evening, to a honk of civil reception
in Chandos-dreet, and in the morning found himfelf
minus as above ; but as no clear evidence could be
produced aruinft the fair culprit,The was difcharged,
and the old gentleman left to bewail his folly.

very efficacious, will perhaps prove acceptable to the

Mr. B. prepared for the trial of his fttength and
fpeed —after a few minutes had palled, the rolling
vehicle with which the bet was to be decided, made
its appearance, when to the adonilliment of the
fpeetators, it proved to be a barrow purchafed at a
late fair for one of the children of the wag, who pro-
poled the bet. Mr. B. however let out on his expe-
dition, but before be had proceeded twenty yards,
