The prosecutris stated, that she was servant in a
Gentleman's family residing at Sydenham. In she even-
iog of the .31st of July, she took a place, at the lco-
pbant and Castle, on the Sydeabana coach, to go home
frogs London. She was put inside) there being no other
passengers. In the course of the journey prisoner was
. also put into the coach; they fell into conversation, and
the prosecutria freely. communicated to the prisoner
whither she was going. The prisoner told her that he
- was a relation of her master, and said he would be
happy to see her home, to which she teadily assented.
They were put down on Sydenham-common, some dis-
f4auge from the house. She took bold of the prisoner's
Arm, relying upon his kind protection; he prevailed
woo her to late a short cut across the Common, instead
of, gradating on the high read; in about ten minutes
the Prisoner stopped, and suddenly seized her by the
shoelders behind, d—dher eyes, and said that, if she
suede an alarm, he would butcher her ; he then snatched
her bundle out.of her hands and beat her with it about
the bead two or tine, times; in addition to this violence
he kicked her, and tried to throw her down. The pro.
secutrir cried out Murder! two or three times, and two
of the Baw-street hone:patrol came to her assistance,
and she told them of the prisoner's conduct. In the
presence of the patrol, the prisoner beat her again and
kicked her; the prisoner ran-off with the bundle; but
in about two hours afterwards be was taken in his bed,
at his lodgings in a public-house at Sydenham.
The Bow-street patrol corroborated the prosecutrix's
statement, as far as they had observed the transaction.
,It appeared to them that the prisoner was quite sober
at the time.
Several witnesses gave the prisoner an excellent cha-
racter from his youth npu arch.
Mr. Janice PARE summed op the evidence for the
Jury, and they immediately found the prisoner Guilty.
Sesame of death was recorded ; but the Learned
Judge bold out hopes of mercy to the prisoner, on ac-
cess' of his previous good dbaracter.

.Mill, on the 12th of September, a sheep, the property
of Haag Hiltonir.Gailiy.
Jews Tap*, a private in the Royal Marines, was
indicted for stealing (at Woolwich, on the Ist of August)
itt money, the property of William Miles.
It appeared in evidence, that on the night of the Ist
of August, an office belonging to the Pay-Serjeant of
the eityal Marines, in the 'Woolwich- Barracks, was
broken open, and money, to the amount above men-
- tinned, taken out of a desk. The money was destined
•to pay the men. Nest day the prisoner was dash 'of
cash, which he said he had received from his father,
a baker, at Bath. He was liberal in treating a
young woman with whom he kept company. Being
suspected, he was taken up, and whilst in custody
be wrote a letter to his sweetheart, desiring her to 4o
to a particular field, where he had bid some money, in
a sand bank. The girl was watched, and taken Ia the
act of dig, ng out a bag, containing about 201. worth
of silver. flurbag was identified as being that in which
the money stolen from the Pay-office was contained,
Whilst in custody the prisoner made light of the matter,
,and said to the constable, that at all events they could not
hang him. One witness deposed that, during the
oster's concoement in black-hole, the latter endea.
,oared to suborn bias to commit perjury, and swear
that he had' seen a man give him a parcel containing
• limey. 'To this•witness the prisoner admitted that .4

It appeared in evidence, that•on the 12th of August,
the' Royal Sovereign steam ye,* was coming up the
ThatinOs to London, heavily laden with passengers, to
the number of fain or file hundred. The prisoner, the
Preaccacor, and the wife and child in arms of the latter,
were on board. A scale baying takes place betweel

and said, a mere is the "Main dist insulted suer The
premeetor's wife said, II lam ehe perion that struck
yoe." Me instantly tamed round, and stabbed the prO-
starter in the face with dessert-knife, which broke at
the instant, and before the prosecutor could rise, he re-
peated the blow with the remitting portion of the knife,
which took effect in.the upper pert of the left eye, and
laid the eye-lid open.
Mr. Hunter, a surgeoo, of Minciurlane, was ex-
amined as to the nature cliche prosecutor's wounds. He
said that the wounds were not likely to produce any
serious bodily harm. When he first saw the wound in
the eye-lid, he was alarmed for the safety of the eye,
from the contused and inflammatory appearance it pre-
sented, but by the kfith of August both wounds were'
quite well. No serious mischief bad taken place, and
no grievous bodily harm bad been sustained. Upon'
this evidence— ‘'
Mr. Justice PARE interposed, and told the Jury they
must acquit the prisoner. The Surgeon having stated
that the wounds were not of .a nature to produce any
I grievous bodily harm, his ,Lordship said he felt himself
bound to say that thexase did not come within the words
of the statute on which the indictment was founded.—
The Jury immediately returned a verdict of Not Guiky.
Mr. Justice PARK then addressed the prisoner, and
lectured him severely. His conduct, he said, was most
disgraceful and unpardonable; and he ought to thank
GOD for his escape from the perilous situation in which
his rash and-sanguinary temper bad placed him. For
the remainder of his days he ought to be grateful to
PROYIDIINCE for the fortunate torn which the case.had
taken; for had he been found guilty, the law would
most probably have taken its course.
IWer Sonia% was indicted for breaking and entering
,the dwelling elf Mary Ann Pars, at East Greenwich,
in the daytime of the 12th of October, no person
being •therB4i, and stealing various articles of property
to the amorist of 501.—The prisoner was found Guilty,
and judgment of Doak was recorded.

UNION-HALL

A hard-working n shoemaker, named LAE, was sum
moned before L. Attest, Esq. charged by his wife Dorothea,
with having ill-treated her, and refused to support her.
Mrs. Last states!, that she yras subject to all kinds of lll•usage'

years. He has not been content with boating her, bathe serapes tP
allow her a sixpence, and her life was made miserable. She did nut
know what cause on earth she had given him for such conduct to her.,
Mr. Last, during this statement against him, looted. with the
greatest indignation *towards Mr wile, and at the conclusion held.

a deeply-injured man—" Yes, your, Worship (said he), if you read'
