WORSIT IP-STREET.

Sarah Jeffreys, cook, and Eliza Jenkins, housemaid, to Mr.
Chapple, distiller, in Shorcditch, were charged with rubbing their
master. Mr. C. said, that on Wednesday Mrs. C. told him
something was wrong in the kitchen. He immediately sent for an
Officer, who, on searching, found in the cook's box a bottle of gin,
which she confessed she and Jenkins bad brought from below stairs.
The gin was produced, and Mr. C. swore to its being his property,
as none such was, made by any other distiller, and he had never
sold a drt'p of that quality to a dealer, though he had sold some
thousands of gallons to private families. Mr. Beware asked what
peculiLr ingredient he had used to enable Lim to swear so positively
to it ; but that, he said, was a secret of trade which he would not
disclose. The Magistrate said, he would never commit a
prisoner merely from his own confession, unless the Officer had
previously apprised him that such confession would be used in
evidence; and founded his reason on the repeated dictum of the
Judaea..—(Thir dictum was confirmed by Mr. Butler, clerk to Mr.
Harmer); and as no evidence appeared against Jenkins, he should
discharge her, and remand Jeffries; and recommended Mr. C. to
conic provided with witnesses to speak to the distinctive quality and
flavour of his gin.
