ARREST FOR HIGH TREASON.

,

It will be recollected that amongst those charged
with being concerned in the memorable Catastfeet
Conspiracy, was a man, named John Patin, who was
frequently mentioned in the evidence upon the trials
of 7'histlewood and others, as being an active parti:
cipator in the crimes of those men. He escaped from
the dreadful scene in Cato-street, and contrived to
elude the vigilance of the Police, though a reward
of £lO9 was offered for his arrest ; and it was sup-
posed that he had quitted the country; but within
the last two or three days information was received
which revived the hope of his being secured. All
Thursday night, and yesterday, Ituthven, Ellis, and,
Westcott, the Officers, were in search for him, and'
last night, about nine o'clock, the two last men-
tioned obtained information that he was at a house
in. Short's-gardens, Drury-lane. They proceeded.
there, and posted themselves at the coiner of the
street, where they had only been a few minutes,
when they saw Palin issue from a house, in company
with several other men. Ellis suffered him to pass,
and then rushed upon him, and pinioned his 2rms
behind, while Westcott came in font with a drawn.
cutlass, and threatened to cut him down if he made
any resistance. Ellis also presented a pistol at his
head, and Palin, who at first seemed determined to
' resist, gave himself quietly up, and was brought to
the 130 w-street Office.
Mr. BIRNIE arrived shortly after, and took a short
deposition from Ruthven, and Avis, a patrole, as to
the prisoner's identity. Avis had known him as a
soldier in the East London Militia. The following
dialogue ensued r
Mr. BIRNIEWIIat is your name? Prisoner.—

John Palin.
Mr. BIRNIE.—i presume you know the nature of
the charge upon which you are apprehended? Pri-
soner.—No, I do not ; I am not at all aware of it.
Mr. BlRNlE.—lndeed ! Well, Mr. Palin, you have
giten us a great deal of trouble, but-here you are at
last. It is my duty to inform you that you are
charged with being concerned with Thistlewood,
Tidd, and others, whom you well knew, in the con-
spiracies in which they were engaged, and which
cost them their lives. Prisoner.—l deny the charge,
and shall be able to rebut it.
Mr. Iltaxis.—Well, Sir, I wish you may.—Pri-
soner. lam perfectly innocent, and I declare that I
never had any connection whatever with that party.
Mr. Ditme.—l have told you the nature of the
charge, in order that you may prepare yourself with
erid,..nce, if you have any.—Prisoner. I thank you, Sir.
A warrant of commitment was then made out, and
the priqiner was conveyed in a coach, well guarded,
to the House of Correction. He will be re-examined
on Monday—we presume before the Cabinet Council
at the Home Department. He is a tall man, of mea-
gre aspect, apparently about forty-five years of age,
and shabbily dressed. He conducted himself with
perfect coolness.
