forgotten all the particulars, antic censured his
nation to conceal what he knew. He mentioned,
however, that Page's memory would probably ins-.
prove before the next examination, which would take
place to-morrow.
Mr. Fotter said that Page bad stated the particu-
lars related by hini to his. Lordship, which had given
rise to the wiestiont put by his Lordship to the wit-
nets and the prisoner.
Tie Lotto Mayou said, that in all probability the'
evidence of Page would be rendered unnecessary, as
there were many who could identify the 'prisoner as
one of the rioters. If he was one of the active persons
in Mr. Beck with's shop, there, was little doubt but
Mr. Griffin would recognize him. " As to the piece
which Le acknowledges to have had in his possession
(said his Lordship), I am apprehensive that he
stole it."

The Prisoner repeated the former relation with
respect to the gun, and was proceeding to prove the
impossibility of the truth of the charge, without-a
reference to any witness, when—
His Lordship said, " You can't deny having seen
me at the Exchange r
The prisoner.—l don't know whether I saw you or
not, my Lord, there was so much confu‘ion.
The. LORD MAVOR.—You were actually drivs
away from the Exchange by my means.
Mr. Foster.—He is a man who understands the
business of breaking open, and could easily succeed in
breaking open Mr. Beckwith's ht,iise.
The Lintu Maxon ordered hitn to be bronght up
to-morrow, and directed that a communication sbauld
be made to Mr. Griffin and others, tipin the subject
of this new case. Gunnell was then conducted to
the Ciimpter.

to give so Effie attention as to these which had been
transmitted to him in such quantities since the disap-

" MT Loan—Many attempts have been made to mislead
your Lordship. To put un end to them, told to the waste of the

was the Bull and Butcher, but could ant recollect the
sign of the house between that town and London, on I
his return. He was remanded till Saturday.

his name was Eatton, was brought to Union Hill,
yesterday, chargtcl by Snow, a constable, ( who ap-
prehended him, the preceding night, loitering on the

When the prisoner was called on to give aim accccnt
of himself, he said he was a discharged seaman-
that he had been out of employ for siz months—and
that he was, therei4c, reduced to the greatest dis
tress.--Thice being no circumstance that could
'create suspicion that he was Watson, the prisoner
was ordered to be kept to hard labour in the House of
Correction, for 7 days. and then passed to his parish.
