GUlLDHALL.—Yesterday, LOVfIaSS and Payne, the
two young men examined on Friday for robbing i
their masters, the one a cloth maker in Noble-street,
the.other a callico-glazer, in Foster-lane, were brought
up to be re-examined, together with Bray, a noted
receiver of stolen goods, through whose temptation,
it appeared from the declaration of the boys, they had
been induced to commit the robberies. There being,
however, no part of the stolen property foundon Bray's
premises, nor any evidence against him bet that of
the boys who stole the goods, he was ordered to be
discharged, but with a strong admonition from the
Magistrate, that he was well known both there and
at the Mansion House, as a pest to honest society,
and that he would be made a severe example to per.'
sons of his description on the very first crime of this
son that could be brouga booze to Lila.
