POL ICE.

GVILDHALL.—In consequence of what ss'e stated a
few days since, relative to the assembly oil a body of ,
Mendicants, by night, in Fleet Market, the City 01E-
cers were put upon the alert, and yesterday brought
up more than a dozed sturdy fellows, who were
found wandering about the shambles in the Market
the night previous, in a state of vagrancy. Most of
them said they had no home to go to, and were, in
consequence, passed to their parishes.
Bow-sToom—Yesterday there was another hear-
ing, relative to the delivery of coals at Lady Eliza
DruMmond Smith's house, in Piccadilly, without the
insertion of the Meter's name in the Vendor's ticket,
to certify the quality of the coals delivered.—John
Ogle, the labouring Meter, admitted that he had
never countersigned a Vendor's ticket, nor had been
called upon by a merchant, or dealer in coals, to sign
a Vendor's ticket, since he had been a Meter. He
confessed his ignorance upon the subject, and that he
did not know d was his duty to sign them till last
Tuesday, when the examination upon the first infor-
mation took place ; he also admitted, that he had
discovered that he was liable to a penalty of twenty
pounds for not countersigning the Vendor's ticket.
—Mr. HUMPHREYS imputed his client's error to
mere inexperience, and contended that Mr. Brad-
field, the informer, had revengeful motives for laying
the information.—lt was at length agreed that the
defendant, Mr. Alder, the coal-merchant, should-pay
Els on this information, and 10s. each on the six
others, and should abandon his appeal against the
first conviction.—Mr. Bradfield said, lie came for ward
for the public good, and should give his share of the
conviction to the Royal Fever Hospital and the 1111-
mane Society. He added, he was determined to
expose the Meters.
AiAßLtionorcit-sverrn—Three persons .of the
names of Loftin, Dean, and Brooks, where charged
by Pozey, a watchman, in Tottenham-court-road,
uith'beating and kicking him unmercifully. Poiey
stated, that the defendants had charged him with
being asleep, as he was reclining himself on the step
of a door after calling his rounds. Two of the &fen-
, dints, however, were so wcunded about the head by
Mr. Po,: y, that they went to an Hospital to get their
wounds dressed. The Magistrate reprobated the con-
duct of the watchman, Who was committed in de-
fault of bail.
J. Jones, alias G. Clarke, charged with burglary
and robbery at the Tabernacle, in Tottenhant-court-
road, slipped his handcuffs, when fastened to another
prisoner in the hack office, and escaped.
HATTON G t onoN.—Yesterday 1.. ('spit, porter to
'Mr. Smith. bookseller, at the corner of Newman and
Oxford-street, was examined on the following charge:
Mr. Badcock, a neighbour, came into Mr. Smith's
shop, to purchase some stamps ; but the stamps lie
wanted not being there. Sarah Gibbs, the shop-wo-
man, said, she would send fo. some stamps to another
shop, kept by Mr. Smith, in Long-acre ; for which
purpose Mr. B. gave her a£s note. Mrs. G. with-
out examining the amount, put it into her bosom ;
and when the prisoner came in, gave him the note,
saying-4, Here is a 12'2 note, go to Long-acre and
pay for the stamps mentioesd in this paper." The
prisoner, taking advantage of this, gave two one-
pound note., in payment for the stamps. On his re-
turn be %s. :v. sent with the change and stamps to Mr.
Iladcnek's, and then the fraud was discovered.—He
was remanded.
The dead body which. was taken from two fellows
a few nights since in Brunswick-square, by Teasdak
and Smith, the constable and watch-house-keeper,
was deposited in Surgeon's Hall, Lincoln's Inn-fields,
by order of the Magistrate, and not sold to the porter
of St. Thomas's Hospital, as erroneously stated in
some of the newspapers.

Thursday morning Mr. Bnown, of Gravesend, was
stopped going to Maidstone, at Erith, by a single
footpad, and robbed of his money and a silver watch.
A few evenings ago the house of Mr. HORDFR, the
corner of Printer'-street, Earl-street, Blackfriars, was
robbed of money, plate, clothes, and other articles,
to the amount of three hundred pounds. It seems
that on the return of Mr. Mallen, who bad been
during the day at Croydon, to his house, at nine in
the evening, he heard a noise and strange voices on
knocking at the door. Ile went to the watch-house
to get assistance, and on his return found the door
open. On entering the house he saw every thing in
disorder, the decks and drawers forced and rifle^rnd
the rooms stripped of every article of value that
could be removed. The maid-servant was absent,
but the charwoman, whom she had employed to take
care of the louse while she visited her sweetheart,
made her appearance in great agitation. The story
she told was, that the female servant had left her
alone in the care of the house in the early part of the
evening ; shortly after she heard voices up stairs, and
listening attentively she heard somebody say, " Ann,
are you gone out yet ?" Frightened dreadfully, and
fearing that she should be murdered, she crept into
the coal-bole, where she remained locked up until the
I return of Mi. llontona. The servant, on her return,
I seemed astonished at hearing of the robbery, hut,
I being suspected, was taken into custody. The person
she had been to visit was also apprehended. Thcy
underwent long private examinations at Guildhall,
but were discharged after a confinement of two days.
Tuesday se'nnight no less than four persons, three
of them Ladies, had their pockets picked at the Mar-
ket-ctoss in Leeds. A Gentleman was robbed of ten
pounds, a Lady of sixpence, another of fourpence
and a third of two pounds.

Thursday se'nnight, after the Theatre of Liverpool
had closed, as Mr. ROBERT NORRIS was stepping into
his carriage at the box-door, his foot slipped and he
fell. On recovering himself, he found that his gold-
watch, with the chain and appendages, had disap-
peared, and he immediately gave the alarm, when
fellow in the crowd, of the name of Daniel Casey,
rushed forward, and attempted to escape ; but, was
taker, after he had thrown away the watch, which
was soon after found and identified, and the prisoner
committed to take his trial for the offence.
There was rather a thin market at Norwich on
Saturday. Wheats remain stationary, but barley was
something lower.—There was a tolerable show of
Stots and homebred cattle for sale, and the drovers
required some advance in price, on account of the
great change for the better in the pat.tuica and tur-
nip crop.
