%MOM QV EDWARD CLIPTIAD•
HArt9i-Gmtotur. Leacv, the mutderer of
Clifrord was brcinght to this Once yesteidaY, froin
the House of Correction ; as was W. Sideleiy; whose
evidence being read over, he said that he went to
bed, on the night of the murder, about nine o'clock •
and, being very dyed, be did not irate outing the'
night, and therefore could not tell' whetliif Mtg.
Clifford cattle home or not ; be confothdecl the recoil
lection of different nightis so as tint to be poililirear—
The eldest of Mrs. Clifford's, girls, in het examine-
tioa. said, she let her mother in at eleven o'clock, the
room door being bolted; and that when her mother
came in, she ailed Slattery, who elept hi the Loom,
if Clifford or Leary was come liotheyet ?.and that
Slattery answered, be had not seen them. Slattery
said, that he thinks such conversation passed. Leary
was asked by I4r: Tbitrom, the Magistrates how
mahy Children hi bad ? He answered, one ; which,
during the examination' was all the questions put to
him. Mr. WCarthy, Mr. Lyons, the two children
of Mrs. Clifford, and Slattery, were all the witnesses
quotioned. The landlord of the Peacock, in Gray's
lnilane, again attended, and intimated that he had
much to say, and wished that his evidence might be
heard, but which, from the inconsistency of what he
intimated he had to say, was refined.
Mrs. Leary was in the Lockaale-houte, .but was
ordered to lie discharged, as soon as Leery was tent
to New_gate. Slattery was sent to his former lodging
in the House of Correction, and Leary was takeli iR
a hackney-coach to Newgate. At slx o'clock he was
double-ironed, and locked up in line of the Chapel
cells. After he was brought into the cell, and the
handkerchief taken from his neck, and his pockets
searched, he said, " Take my handkerchief and my
.hoes too ; you will soon take my life !" Before the
door was closed, Coot and Thistleton, the Officers
who had him in charge at his examination, came to
;hake hands with him, and wish him farewell; when
he looked on them with a stern eye, and said" 1)-1.-n
such friendship ; you will be soon satisfied when you
see me banned ; that is all you want I"
THE SEIZURE OF THREE THOUSAND GUINEAS.
UNION-HALT.—Yesterday Mr. Seale, sen. who, it
will be recollected, was stated to be the proprietor of
the 3000 guineas seized by Goff and Clark, on Tues-
day evening, applied to Mr. BIRNIE, attended by
Mr. Awset as his Counsel, for their restoration. To
Mr. Alaatit's application the Magistrate replied, the
guineas were not in his possession, but in the posses-
sion of the officers ; he had, indeed, put the office seal
to them, and recommended to the officers to deposit
them in Western's Batik for safe custody. They were
detained by them under the recommendation of the
Solicitor to the Mint, and at his request the mattet
' stood over till Tuesday for a final bearing.
Mr. ,ALLEY, on the part of his client, prtiested
against this delay, which might be of serious conse-
quence to him. Mr. Seale had now come to town
express, and could not attend again on l'ueschy ; he
was ready, hoteever,. on the money being given up, to
give the officers an undertaking to indemnify them
against any inconvenience which might result to them
from so doing.
The evidence upon which they detained the money
having been read, Mr. ALLEY said he imputed no
blame to the officers for their conduct hitherto ; but
as it now turned out their suspicions respecting the
honesty of the porter were unfounded, he submitted
there were no grounds for detaining the property any
longer. There was no Act of Parliament authorizing
such detention : the only Acts on the subject wete
those of the sth of Richard 11. and the 2d of Henry
IV. and Henry VI. which provided, that any person
sending gold coin out of the kingdom, or detected in
putting it on board any vessel, for the purpose of
being sent out of the kingdon, should forfeit fife same.
It appeared, that Mr. Seale was doing neither : he,
therefore, again demanded they should be given up ;
and in case the officers refused to do so, upon Mr.
Seale signing an undertaking to indemnify them
against the consequences, he gave them notice, they
would be arrested for the sum ; and that actions
would be brought against them for any loss which
Mr. Seale might sustain from the &tentioe. He
would' not, however, cause them to be arrested till
this day, that they might have an opportunity of con-
sulting the Solicitor to the Mint.
The officers signifying that they were not prepared
to give thenr up, Mr. ALLEY again gave them notice,
that writs would ba issued against them ; and here
the matter rests for the present.
BOW.STREET.—Yesterday evening Maly Am; Gould
was charged with stealing Al, in bank notes, the pro-
perty of William Mendey, at his house at Clewer, in
Berks. Mrs. Mendey gated, that to July last the
prisoner had been received into the house of the pro-
seeutor, who is a labouring man, from motives of
charity, and one day, while Mrs. Mendey was ill in
bed, she broke open a box, and absconded with the
above property, being all they had in the world, and
which had been intended for the purpose of putting
their son apprentice. After three times coming to
town in search of the prisoner, she met with her yes-
terday, and caused her to be secured. The prisoner
admitted the fact, and said she had spent all the money.
She was committed for trial at the next Assizes.
MANSION-HOnE.—Yesterday a great crowd assem-
bled at the Mansionhouse, to hear the examination
of Mr. May, the broker. The tnoment the doors
were opened, the crowd rushed in so impetuously,
that the room was filled in a few seconds, and several
panes of glass in the windows were broken in endea-
vouring to secure convenient places. Mr. May re-
quested the Loan MAYOR to postpone his examina-
tion, and his Lordship retired along with him .ialrei a
private room, to hear his reasons for the request, from
which, of course, strangers were excluded.
GUlLpliALL.—Yesterday a man of the name of
Rimy. Chambers was brought by an Officer of the Po-
lice before the Alderman (Sir J. Llama), charged
with having, along with another; robbed a Gentleman
a few nights ago: It appeared that the prisoner had
been tried last Sessions at the Old Bailey, and that on
the evening when he had stated himself to `have been
at Barnet, he had been seen in London. The Gen-
tleman who had been robbed not being present, the
Alderman ordered the party to be detained till
Monday.
Ryan' liyaiss,i Jew, was charged by Mary Rich-
ardson, residing at No. I, Rain-cottrt, Smithfield,
with molesting her whesevex he met her. It appeared

vise prisoner had beet be'utight OP hist titesdafel
and *as then on bail. Thiriday night, after he was in
the watch-house, he had struck her seiefil
A perion who was present' it the time confirmed the
statetnent of the woman, as to the tiratinent she had
received in the watch-liOnbe, and alsts that the watelt
man did not at all interfere in order to protect her.--
The prisbner described himself to be a broker in Oa-
well-street, and that he and the Woman had lived
together four or Ave years.' The Alderman here in-
terposed, and reprobated the conduct of the man in
the strongest terms : such a person should be sent Out
of the country; and be was not certain whether the
law did not give him the power of doing so: The
Alderman stated', that the watchman, Clarkson, was
Under the jurisdiction of Sir C. Price, and desired the
constable to Mention his conduct to the Deputy of
the Waird.—The prisbner being asked if he had bail?
answered in the affirmative, and twti Jews from the
Rosemary Branch effete.' themselves for that purpose;
but the Alderman Would not. accept them, and or-
dered the prisoner to be detained 'till he shotild find
sufficient bail ,

r

Joha Lawrarser, who was retisanded on Thursday,
charged with having robbed Mr. Parry, in thefair at
Smithfield, was brought up yesterday. Mr. Parry
'stated, that the bills which he had lost had not been
returned ; and etpressed his feats that, should he de.
silt from the charge, he Might be liable to an action
for false imprisonment. The Alderman conceited
such fears to be wholly unfounded but was of opi-
nion, that should he commit the man upon the
grounds alleged by Mr. Parry, he should betray his
trust, and do an irreparable injury to the prisoner.
He should therefore order him to be released.

Satuttlay se'netight a woman twat detected in Mr.
Robinson's liquor shop, adjoining the Court-houses,
in Carlisle, in tendering a forged Bank-note in pay-
ment for some trifling quantity of spirits. She was
taken for examination to the Clerk of the Peace's
Office; and, whilst there, suddenly snatched the note,
which was lying on the table, and swallowed it 1 An
emetic was immediately procured, and forced down
her throat; but not with the desired effect, fot no
note was forthcoming. She way in conseqtlepte dis-
charged.
Tuesday last, a Coronet's Inqtrest was taken on the
body of D. Poole, of Pill. It appeared that he was
found dead on Sunday morning, in a geld on the
North side of the parish of Wraxiiall; and that, when
he died, he was in the act of killing a sheep, which he
had just stolen. In his right hand was a bloody knife,
and bis clothes and body were every where soiled with
gore and dirt; Near him, lay his gun, discharged ;
and, at a short distance, a wounded sheep, which had
evidently beea shot, and had a slight wound under
the ear. Poole, was perfectly lifeless, very black in
the face, and all together a horrible spectacle. In a
ditch was concealed a sack, which being searched,
was found to contain the eattass of another sheep,
paunched, skinned, cleaned, and cut up ; whilst a
patch of newly turned earth marked the spat where
the skin and offals were buried. Verdict—Died by
the Visitation of Gon, in the act of Felony
