OLD BATLIT-THIS DAY:

Met Cossassithee, of tbe Coldstream Regiment nt Guards,trius
was committed for wilful perjury as Friday, was this day tried
and convicted, and seotenoed to be transported for seven years.

SENTENCES:
The Commox SERGEANT took his seat on the bench at
eleven o'clock, when the remaining prisoners were
brought up to receive judgment.—The awful sentence
of death was passed on the following unhappy convicts,
accompanied by a most impressive speech,which affected
the whole Court :

William Parkinson, Joseph Jones alias Williams, Francis Pierce,
Akzander Grant. James Fell, Henry Abrahams, George Parker,
Thomas Mansßeid, Sarah Wilmot, Ellen Hartnett, Francis Edema,
James Bishop, John Sidney Smith, Alexander Reline Frederick
Senile, Charlotte Davis,-Amelia Roberts, Patrick Ryley,; Thomas
Foster, James Perry, William Egott, David Bloomield, and
Thomas White.

The general attention of the Court was turned to-
wards Thomas White, found guilty of setting his house
on fire. He approached the bar with a firmness that
was not expected. On hearing his awful doom, he
struck his forehead twice, and kept his eyes fixed.
The CommoN SIRORANT, alluding to the great in-
crease of the crime of robberies by servants, said, he
felt convinced that the only course that could be fol-
lowed to put a stop to it, was, to carry the law into fall
force; and he really believed that hie Majesty's Minis-
ters would feel it their duty to recommend this on the
present occasion, so that it behoved every one of those
who now heard him to prepare for the worst.
The other prisoners were sentenced In the usual way, to various
periods of imprisonment, and the Court adjourned until Than/lay,
7th of December.

Yesterday, Frederick Juaice I.4ahane was indicted for
stealing from his employers, Messrs. Warren and Co.
of Rood lane, sundry Bank of England notes and
sovereigns, their property; and Charles Si*skim', a
young Gentleman of high connections, was also indicted
for receiving the same, knowing them to be stolen.
Mr. LAW opened the prosecution. The prisoner
Latham was indicted for converting to his own use the
money of his employer, and Singleton with receiving it
with a guilty knowledge. A second count charged the
former prisoner with larceny.
It may be recollected, from our Police Reports, that
Latham was a clerk in the house of Warren and Co.
and had taken, up money to pay the duties on some
sugars, which were never paid ; that he got into the
company of Singleton, and proposed a trip to France ;
Singleton agreed, and they both set off, having pur-
chased a variety of articles together, and paid some
tavern bills with the money alleged to be stolen.
Evidence was gone into, but it fastened principally upon Latham.
The case being dosed for the prosecution, Latham offered no
defence ; but Hazleton declared he was innocent of the charge, and
that be had been deceived by Latham to accompany him to Boa-
klu, having several friends there.
Mr. ALLEY had been anxious before the trial proceeded to object
to the indictment, which was laid wrong, so far as the prisoner
(Singleton) was concerned; but the friends of the youth decliied
availing themselves of this advantage.
Several respectable witnesses were then called, who proved, that
Latham had reported, that be expected a legacy, and that be was
afterwards seen in mourning, as If for the loss of a friend; also that
he bad invited others to go with him to France. Numerous other
witnesses were called, and established the high and honourable
character of Singleton ; and it was also proved, that his friends, who
were of the highest respectability, supplied all his wants.
The Jury retired at five o'clock, and continued in deliberation
until half-past eight o'clock, when they were called in, in conse-
quence of a communication made to the Court, that in the case of
Latham they had agreed, but that they were unable to come to an
unanimous verdict with respect to the other prisoner.
The Common Seaucaor inquired whether there was any point on
which they wished for further information? The burden of the
proof, he observed, rested with the prosecutor; and if the guilt of
the prisoner was not made out to the Jury,they were bound to ac-
quit him, by which verdict they would be understood merely to
state the impression nude by the evidence en their minds.
His LORDSHIP then read over those puts of the evidence which
bore on the case of Singleton, and the Jury again retired; and
shortly after ten o'clock this morning a communication was nude
to the Court that the Jury, who had now been out seventeen hours,
bad come to a decision as to the verdict they should return.—They
were accordingly sent for, when the Foreman pronounced Latham
Guilty; but with respect to Singleton, one of the Jurors held out,
in opposition to the eleven others, and would not retract.
The Coeur said, then he would be entitled to an acquittal, since
the whole must agree.
The Jury, however, were discharged, Singleton being ordered to
be detained for trial at the next Sessions.
The Comte sentenced Latham to be transported for 14 years.
