HATTON-GARDEN.

Mary Lloyd, otherwise Juries, otherwise Williams, otherwise
Edwards, otherwise Brown, and we know not how many other
name: she has at various times assumed, underwent an examination
on a chugs of swindling.
It appears that she has recently put down her carriage, discharged
her mock-groom (her son), and reduced her establishment to a
singlefiontee athwart,. She has been lodging at No. 19, Somers-
street East, New road, promising to pay for the accommod..tion of
a suite of apartments the humble rent of thirty shillings per week,
and levying contributions on the various tradespeople in the neigh.
bourhood, who were so captivated with the urbanity of her man-
ners and general lady-like deportment, that not only her table, but
several others were abundantly furnished with the very best articles
of the pelndiss:s Ws, and a plentiful supply of arse site also, on her
verbal promise of indemnification.
_ _

A host of persons were in attendance toprefer charges against her
for swindling them of goods to various amounts; but, unfortu-
innately, on this, as on every previous occasion, she had ingeniously
contrived to keep out of the fangs of the law. No case of actual
fraud being substantiated,
Mr. ROOlllll said that she must be once more let loose on the
world; and be sincerely regretted that it was not in his power to get
her sent out of the country, as she was one of the most Incorrigible
swindlers he had ever known.

The Lady retired with the utmost nonchalance, laughing at ber
numerous creditors.

Thomas BarneU was charged with stealing a quantity of wet linen.
The prisoner said he was driven to the theft by the most abject dis-
tress, and begged for mercy ; he had, he said, a wife and five
children. He was, notwithwanding, folly committed for trial, and
the parties bound over to prosecute.

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.
Yesterday, two French.egg-merchants applied for Sir Otto. nu-
RANT'S assistance, under the following circumstances:
A fortnight ago they sold a can of eggs to a cheesemonger in
Crown-street, Seho. Two days since they sold him another ; after
he had got them he said there had been eight hundred b.td ones in
the first case, and he would pay no more than £2 2s. 4ed. deducting
it for the bad ones. Complainant had offered him forty-to o eggs,
which be considered a (air allowance, but nothing less than .42
would satisfy the cbomemonger.
