Thomas Banker and Margaret Hugies were indicted CURRIE and Co. Surgeons, No. 167, Hatton-Card..n.
for stealing from the person of Joseph Flemmings a -

in Whitechapel.
The prosecutor had - been spending the evening
with some friends, and in his way home called in at
several public-houses and drank so often that he at
' length became so intoxicated that he knew not wlli-
ther he was going. About five o'clock on the ensuing
morning he lottnd himself seated-in a room in George.
yard, Wbitechapel, and his pockets picked of all his
property. The prisoners lived in the house, and a
pawnbroker proved that Hughes pawned with him a
watch which the prosecutor identified as his.
It appeared also, from the evidence of a police offi-
cer, that the female prisoner had told him she believed
the male prisoner, who lived with her, had nibbled the
prosecutor's watch, and said if he went up to him he
would probably come it; but if he did not, she would
tell him where it was lumbered (pawned) in the Mi-
,nories. When she told this tale, she was a little in-
toxicated, and on the ensuing morning denied what
she had said ; but the officer made inquiries, in the
Minories at different pawnbrokers, and at last disco-
vered the watch, and traced it to the possession of the
prisoners. They were both found Guilty.

SHERIFF'S COURT, FEBRUARY 17.

COHEN V. THE LATE SHERIFF AND CAWDRON.
- Mr. LAWNS, for the plaintiff, stated that this was a
writ to assess damages in an action brought by Mr.
Cohen, a merchant, in Great Alie-strect, for a tres-
pass, committed by thndefendant Cawdron, a sheriff's
officer, in levying an execution en leis goods, intended
for another person of the same name, unconnected
with the plaintiff ; and that the plaintiff's motive for
bringing this action was, to punish the misconduct of
the officer in his mode of making the levy, and conti-
nuing in possession a whole night after the mistake
was discovered.

It appeared from the evidence of the plaintiff's
footman, that Cawdron, with his follower, came to
the plaintiff's house in the evening of the 19th of
June, that he inquired if the plaintiff, or if any ( f his
clerks, were at home ? and on being answered in the
negative, he desired the witness to open the door to
his follower ; this the witness declined doing, unless
he would inform him of his business, which he refused
to do ; and while witness went into the parlour to
acquaint his mistress, defendant let the follower in,
and sent him down into the kitchen ; that witness and
plaintiff's wife became alarmed, supposing the men
were come to rob the house ; and. that she, together
with two other ladies, ran into the street, where a
considerable mob gathered, and several of the neigh-
bours coming in, at length prevailed upon die man in
possession to shew his authority. Cawdron having
by that time left the house, the man remained in pos-
session till ten o'clock the next morning, when he was
removed by defendant.
Mr. Pearce, the plaintiff's Solicitor, stated, that he
' was sent for by plaintiff about eleven the same even-
ing ; that, upon being informed of the mistake, he
went to Cawdron's house to apprize him thereof '.—
1 that the defendant being in bed refused to rectify.hie
error that night, but promised to do so next mornipg.
The Under Sheriff, in summing up, commented
very severely on the conduct of the officer, which he
considered grossly reprehensible, in executing the
warrant with so little attention to the feelings of the
plaintiff's family, and without informing them of the
nature of the business, and that upon being convinced
of his mistake, he did not immediately rectify it. He
also considered the plaintiff highly justified in bring-
ing this action, and recommended the Jury to give
such damages as would be an atonement for the in-
jury, and a warning to Sheriff's officers in future.
The Jury gave a verdict of forty pounds; which
the plaintiff immediately declared his intention of re-
, mitring.

most reduced and pitiable situation for two years, unable to fut.

his legs ; in fact, no one who knew him ever suppthed it possible
ifor him to recover. He was advised at last to try your Leakes
Pills—he did so, adhering strictly to the directions given *ids
them—he had not taken more than two boxes, before he found
an alteration for the better—this encouragesk him to proceed and
by taking a few boxes more he found his appetite and strengt*

know. You are welcome, Sir, to refer any persola to me for a

DR. GILBERT's VEGETABLE ANTISCOR-

year, generally originating from impuritis of the blohd, a Title-

medicine to public notice, as being a certain preventative and
cure for numerous diseases, particularly the land and sea scurvy,
cancers, king's evil, ulcerated sore legs, running wounds in any
part of the body, leprosy, eruptions after the small-pox or Rica-

In those dreadful diseases termed the Scrophula, was attited

1, Solomon Anning, of Colyt( n, in the said County, Stone-
mason, was, about five years ago, eized with a violent pain in
my side and head; soon after, a humour broke in my neck,
near the collar-bone, and bream.: a desperate wound; in about three
weeks after three more wounds broke out belovemy ear, and a
large gathering appeared on the other side of my neck, which
caused suck extreme pain I could not gain any rat night or
day. I then took a bottle of Dr. Gilbert's Vegetable Antiwar-
butic Drops, soon after those wounds healed, and the humatr
abated, but not petsevering in the medicine a sufficient time,
violent swelling affected one of my legs, and my knee became so
stiff and enlarged. the faculty deemed it a white swelling, and
treated it as such for a considerable time. i now became a per

feet cripple, soon after my afilictions were greatly increased by a
powerful inflammatory humour, which *titled in my eyes Ana
nearly deprived me of sight; my whole frame now became her-
thened with this disease; the crutches which I had long used
were no longer of use, 1 became confined to my bt.d. The la•t
advice I had from my surgeon was to get myielf removed to one
of the London Infirmaries, this I did not approve of, it appeared.
doubtless whether I could undertake the journey. At my lute!
request I put myself a second time under a course of 1 r.
Vegetable Antiscorhutic Drops, resolving to give them a fair
trial ; the wonderful effects produced a favourable alteration, and
by the time I had taken seven or tight bottles, I became a ,(,end
man, every wound healed, my leg and knee returned to their for-
mer size and strength, having for several months not felt the Iraq
symptom of the aforesaid complaints, and I enjoy a very gooll
