Guilty—Death.
Twelve were convicted of felony, ♦iz :
J. Keppott, for stealing 12 ounces of tobaccco ; E. Fogg, for
stealing a watch; W. Wright and J. Leveritt, for stealing !Albs.
of Lead; Zilphia Drake, for stealing a table cloth and a sheet ;"

118 halfpence ; 'l. Turner, for stealing a pocket-handkerchief;
and four were acquitted, viz. J. Griffiths, Eleanor Thompson,
Catharine Kirton, and E. Fogg.
Rrnry Wolter, a genteel looking ybung man twenty-
one years of age, was next tried on an indictment,
charging him with stealing a brooch, value 6s. in
the shop of Mr. Jesse Cole, in Hanway-street.
It appeared that the prisoner went into the shop
under pretence of purchasing a pearl ring, and while
looking over different articles, he was seen by the
shopman to put the brooch in his pocket. The shop-
man then called his master, and in his presence ac-
cused the prisoner of having taken the brooch, to
which the prisoner replied. you think I have taken
any thing search my pocket ;" and on Mr. Cole's so
doing, he there found the property in question. The
prisoner was immediately secured, and delivered over
to the hands of justice. The Jury not being satisfied
of the guilt of the prisoner, returned a verdict of—
Acquittal.
-Robert', the evidence against R. Armitage, the
Bank Clerk, who was convicted last Sessions for for-
gery, was yesterday brought to Newgate, preparatory
to his trial this day, for escaping from the House of
Correction. So inveterate are the prejudices of the
other prisoners against- him, that it war thought ne-
cessary to smlude him from their presence.

DUEL.—A meeting took place at Chalk Farm, on
Wednesday morning, between Captain H. and Cap-
tain W. but in consequence of its being interrupted
by a Peace Officer, the parties retired, andmet again
at the back of Holland House, yesterday morning.
Captain H. was attended by Mr. HIPKINS, and Cap-
tain W. by Mr. GRAILS. Shots being exchanged
without effect, and Captain W. still refusing to Make
any apology, Captain H. fired again; Captain W.
then fired in the air, and an explanation took place,
by which it appeared to the satisfaction of both par-
ties, that the origin of the disagreement was au error,
which is now earely done away.

We are sorry to learn that Mr. T. Dibdin fell from
a stage-coach, a few days ago, and broke the radius
or lesser bone, of his right arm.
Thursday Mr. Ruffy, of the Golden Key public-
house, Fleet-mai.ket, was thrown from a chaise, in
the Borough ;•by which his neck was dislocated, and
he died immediately.

Monday se'nnight, at Cargo, near Carlisle, an In-
quest was held on the body ot a man, apparently be-
tween 60 and 70 years old, of a spate and meagre
appearance, who had been found dead about seven
in the evening, in a corn-field, adjoining the high
road, and not more than 100 yards from Cargo-hill.
There biting no absolute evidence before the Jury as
to the manner in which the deceased came by his
death, a general verdict of—Found Dead.
The Madras Courier of 2.9 th January gives the fol-
lowing account of a sauttie in the vicinity of Calcutta;
it is the only instance of this kind of selt-immolation
that has occurred in the neighbourhood ot Calcutta

for some time :
10 Neederham Durt, a Hindoo of the Colst Cast,
died on Sunday morning, after a short illness, at the
age of SI years. On his decease, his wife, who had
attained her 71st year, forthwith declared her resolu-
tion to be burnt with her husband, with whom she
had lived in a state of uninterrupted happiness for 60
years. Accordingly, at two o'clock of the day of her
husband's decease, she was placed in a palankeen,
being too infirm to walk, and borne with the body of
her husband to Cossypore, where the cheeta, or fune.'
cal pile, had been prepared. After ablution in thilt
Hooghly, and the usual Brahminical ceremonies, she
was laid upon the pile, her right arm passing under
her husband's neck, the signal being given, her son
applied the lighted torch; the pile caught the flames,
and the pious widow was quickly placed beyond the
reach of suffering."
The advantages arising from enquiry into cause
and effect, must be of the greatest benefit to mankind;
_when it is acknowledged that more than one-third die
in infancy : the most eminent that have wrote upon
the case agree that ascarides, or small worms, are the
leading cause, as children, even from their birth, are
subject to them, which cause griping pains, fits, con-
vulsions, and decline, which too often close the scene
in death. The attentive observer may see some thou-
sands of worms at Dr. GA teuNEft's, and have the most
respectable references to the parents of those who have
been cured, at 71, Long Acre, or 3, bhoreditch.—

Worm: are the most frequent sources of Childrens'
disases. Their symptoms every parent and guardian
of children should be acquainted with. They occasion
less of appetite, a paleness of the colour of the face,
emaciation, and irregular state of the bowels, attea.
ded after with violent pains ; they bring on convul-
sions, they affect the growth of the body, and they
prove fatal, by ending in a consumption or decay.—
Both as a preventative and cure of these alarming
complaints, Ching's raiali Worm Lozenge: is univer-
sally allowed, on the testimony of the highest charac-
ters in this country, both in rank and respectability,
to have no equal. The public approbation given to
the Proprietor, from a personal knowledge of its won-
derful success in their own families, stamps its merit
beyond competition, and gives a sanction to it, of
which no other medicine of the kind can boast.—
Parents and others who have the care of children
should have this remedy as a family medicine to re-
sort to, whenever the stomach or bowels of children
are any way disordered, which it will always be
found to relieve. Sold, wholesale and retail, at Mr.

SOCIAL HAPPINESS.
MARRIAGE should be the foundation of Social
Happiness, which is often disturbed through the parties
that form the union not taking those precautions which would se-
cure
them the enjoyment of that great domestic blessing. People
of every rank pay adoration to the shrine of wedlock; but where I
the constitution has been tainted by disease, or debilitated by a
certain habit contracted at an early age, a renovation of stability
previous to entering that state is indispensibly requisite to revive
.the slumbering sparks of life, and to reanimate the system. For
no disorders have contributed more essentially to destroy Hyme-
neal happiness than those which are the consequence of unguarded
pleasure. It was this consideration which induced Messrs I
CURRIE and Co. for these last twenty years, to direct their stu-
dies and practice exclusively to the treatment and cure of the Ve-
nereal Disease, and the disorders arising therefrom; as also to that
derangement of the system, produced by the destructive habit of
the inconsiderate school-buy, which brings on those distressing
Debilities and Deficiencies that prevent or embitter the Matri-
monial state. The successful result of their plan, gives them
additional ardour to oppose the ravages of those complaints,
which are the most important in the catalogue of human infir-
mities. It behovesevery person who has indulged in this soli-
tary vice to seek relief by consulting Professional men of emi-
nency and honour, to which Messrs. CURRIE and Co. claim
the sanction of scholastic authority, as well as the testimony of
uncontradieted facts. In professing the cure of these complaints,
they hold out no inducement to vice ; but sensible as all men
must he of the existence of such calamities, they offer their
assistance as regularly educated Members of the Royal Colleges
of Surgeons of London and Edinburgh. Slight and•recent
cases of Syphilitic infection are radically cured in the short
space of two days. Those of the most obstinate duration, such
as obstructions, inveterate strictures, pains of the bones, gleets.
&c. are permanently and speedily cured. Several Noblemen and
Gentlemen of the first respectability Lave been under the care of
Messrs. Currie and Co. for the removal of complaints of the ure-
thra, strictures, &c. and having received a radical and permanent
cure, request that references may be made to them as satisfactory
eridences of the decided superiority of Messrs. Currie and Co.'s
plan of treatment. Many of these gentlemen had strictures from
to to 20 years, and were under the care of Messrs. Home, Hea-
viside, and other surgeons of equal eminence, who attempted
their cure by the application of the lunar caustic, without success.
Mesirs. Currie and Co. have selected the following letter from
the many they are early receiving from gentlemen returning them
thanks for their restoration to sound and vigorous health. It was
sent to them unsolicited,from the son of a Noble' Earl, who had
laboured under this distressing and painful malady for ten years :
he bad beer. under the care of several surgeons of professional
eminence, none of whom afforded him permanent relief; but
from the superior mode of treatment adopted and pursued by
Messrs. Currie and Co. he received a radical cure in the abort
space of cone month.
MARRIED WOMEN, who have long been disappointed in
their expectations of a family may be assured that in most in.
stances such defects are curable.by medical skill; and although
the removal of such impediments be an object of doubt and uncer
tatnty with others, yet the cure of such defects, by the gradual
progress of renovation, is the acquirement of their experience.
Messrs. Currie and Co. may be consulted by patients of either
Sex, with the greatest sr -recy and honour, at their house, Nu.
