POLICE INTELLIGENCE.

MANSION HOUSE. •
Yesterday Robert J.isel who was charged with forging a Chock
upon Messrs. Williams and Co. bankers, at Birchin-lane, for 1541.
in the month of November, 1827, was brought up for a final eta.
mination. Ile had been remanded at his own request, having
given the Lord Mayor to understand that he had an important
communication to make to his Solicitor ma the subject of the char.,
Mr. nobler, junior, however, said not one word about any tun:.
me nication.
Mr. Gates, the Solicitor to the London Bankers, then tilled on
Mr. Woodward co listen to the evidence which the Chief Clerk hAti
taken down. _ .

Mr. Woodward attended very scrupulously to it, and said he
wished to make some alteration. It bad been stated that be had
said he bad never autborivd the prisoner to fill up blank checks.
He wished that declaration to be confined to this check..

Dir. Gates—End you leave checks open to be app:ied by the pri.-
Goner as he thought proper ?
Mr. Woodward-1 cannot really say.
klr. Gates—Am 1 distinctly to uuderstand that the cheek with/
the signature to it has been filled up without your authority to him?
Mr. Woodward-1 said on my former deposition what I canna
retract. I did not authorise the pri.uner to Ml up the check._
. .

Mr. Gates—You have raised al doubt in this case which d!sl not
exist before. Read over the deposition, and say whether you cal
retract any thing there. In the situation in which I stand I fed it
tube my duty, considering the awful condition art the peisatmt, to
have a most distinct answer to nly proposition. It would appear
from what you have said, that you have sometimes authorised him
to 611 up blank checks. I ask you now, whether that (presenting
the alleged forged check) is nut one?
Mr. Woodward hesitated—He was not aware that he had givst►
any authority of the kind.
The LORD Maros—Has the prisoner been in the habit of filling
up the blink checks?
Mr. Woodward—Certainly not in the habit.
Mr. Mohler, jun.--Has he Dever filled up blank checks, autho.
riled by you?
Alr.Woudwaril—l can't say positively that be has not done so.
My reason for saying so is. that from the multiplicity of business
had to transact with the Gas Company, be has acted in my absence
for me.

Air. Gates—You see the awful situation in which this man
stands. I must press you for a distinct answer, whether he might
not hare filled up this check for you? You must know whether,
on the 541 of Nov. 1827, you authorised him to draw out of the
Bank 154 f. or not. _ _ _

Mr. Nobler, jua. submitted to the Lord Mayor that Mr.WOO4.
ward had already given his evidence, and be would ask his Lord-
ship wbether that was sufficient to authorise the committal of the
prisoner for forgery ?
The Loan ]larva—There is certainly enough, I am sorry to
say. to oblige me to send this case before a Jury. llae charge has
been made out in a sufficiently strung manner.
The prisoner appeared excessively dejected. The deposition
were then signed, and the prisoner was committed to ?sewgate for
trial. Sir Wm. Curtis and a partner in the house et Williams and
Co. were present during the damination.

Yesterday a respectable-looking man, named Frederick 4llird.
by trade a tailor, was brought before Mr. Wa•saa. the Magistrate.
by Dorsett, a parish officer, charged with baying killed a man
named Smith, while they were engaged iu playing a game at skittles.
It appeared the primmer and the deceased, with two other men,
who were present at the time, were all fellow.abepenates In the
employment of Mr. Simpson, a tailor, in St. Swithin's-lane ; and
on the evening before they took a walk, u far as the Duke of York,

posed and acceded to. During the play the deceased stood near
the pins, and by some accident or other, be either stooped or
slipped at the moment the prisoner delivered the ball, which struck
the deceased on the neck near the ear. He instantly fell, gave
three heavy groans, and expired.
Howlett said, be was sent for to the Duke of York: He heard
different versions as to bow the accident took place. One said be
I was adjusting the pins, wither said he was stooping. lighting his
pipe with a match, while a third would have it that Ise slipped,
H. west Into a room where he saw the prisoner, who said that
he was the unfortunate person who bad dose it. He then took
him into custody, and thought it his duty to bring him before the
Magistrate.
Other witnesses were examined who were present, and the pri-
soner was remanded until after a Coroner's Inquest has been held.
He was deeply affected, and regretted extremely that he shoukt
have caused the death of a fellow-creature.

Mr. Wood, a respectable silversmith, accompanied by Stone the
beadle, and ass of the Overseers of the Hamlet of Milo-esid Ord
Town, waited on the Magistrates for the purpose of eaposing as
iniquitous attempt made some due since to ilia the parentage of
a bastard child on the former Gentleman. A girl named DiasSata
Geesey had sworn a and to Mr. Wood; but she prevaricated so
grossly that the case was adjourned, and subsequently she had ad-
mitted that a man named Young was the father, and that sbe had
been induced by some female acquaintance to swear it to Mr. Wood,
who, being a wealthy man, could better afford to maintain it.
The girl being questioned by Mr. Haeounct, admitted that she
had sworn falsely, when she deposed that Mr. Wood was the
father of the child, and be ordered her to be committed for twelve
months to the Haug of Correcdon, en her own confessloo, u a

By s Russian Resolution of bis Majesty, of the 2d inst. It is

last, the Bishops who shall open their Episcopal Seminaries shall
be at liberty to proceed immediately to the organization of them,

June, 1827, and the Bulls of the 18th of the Calends of September
of the same year. appointed by a Royal Resolution of the 2d
October following.

THE COLOSSEUM.

The ascending room of this place of wonders is at
length completed. By this ingenious contrivance visitors who
choose it may be raised to the first gallery without the labour of
ascending the stairs and, indeed, without any exertion whatever
on their parts. Besides this convenience, the invention itself, we
understand, is a very extraordinary effort of mechanical invention.
The first idea was imagined by Mr. Horner early in the progress
of the Panorama, but it is only lately that he has been able to
carry his design into complete execution. The Duke and Duchess
of Cumberland, and Prince George. with a numerous suite, were
the first to be raised by it on their visit to the Colosseum on
Saturday week, and numbers who had previously visited it, have
since returned in order to be raised in a similar fashion. Great
improvements have also been made in the Panorama of the Me-
tropolis, which is now considered to be perfect in every respect.

Paddington Church, having been under repairs for
some time past, was re-opened on Sunday last, for Divine Service.
While the repairs were going on, the amiable and venerable Dr.
Cam's, the Pastor, was called to his Fathers! On this mournful
occasion, a funeral sermon was preached at the above church, by
the Rev. Dr. Rictuses, Rector of Saint Martin's, front these

words—. When all she congregation saw that Aaron mis dead, they
mounted for Aaron thirty days, even all the house "'lsrael. Num-
bers, is. v. 29.--From this very appropriate text, the master-
mind of the Preacher was most eminently displayed in delineating
the virtues of the deceased ; and, in him, the beauties of holiness.
By a letter received from Reviere du Loup, it appears,
that the surveying party under Capt. Bayfield were at
that place op the 3d inst. having returned from the Gulf.
Late accounts from the South East frontiers have been
received, confirming the melancholy intelligence men-
tioned in our last. The apprehensions we then ex-
pressed respecting the fate of Lieut. Buriton, we lament
to say, are too well founded.
Letters from Bordeaux of the 6th Oct. state, that
owing to the continuance of the bad weather great damage
has been done to the vintage ; and the quality of the
wine of 1829 will not prove good.
Rajah Teerut Singh, after the massacre at Nunelon,
in which between thirty to forty men wee killed, in-
cluding two English gentlemen, moved southward in
hopes of overpowering the rebels ; but was completely
frustrated by the prompt operations of the political agent,
who called to his aid the Sylbet Light Infantry Battalion,
and directed them to proceed against the insurgents.

THE KING.

WINDSOR, Dgc. 19. His MAJESTY, during his lei-
sure, has for a length of time visited daily th
e. de
and picturesque cottage purchased from Mrs. Bno A ',-
HERD, which stands in one of the most lovely situation.,
in the Great Park ; and since the plantations have either
been pruned or cut down, both in its immediate neigh-
bourhood and in the distance, the view is extensive and
rich. The interior of the house is entirely renovated,
and the furniture wholly new, selected by the KING him-
self. , It has been reported that the house and grounds,
when complete, are to become the residence of the Duke
and Duchess and Prince GEORGE of CUMBERLAND.
We believe there Is not the slightest ground for believing
that story. Either Lord and Lady MOUNTCHARLES, or
Lord and Lady STRATHAV air, are the personages intend-
ed for the honour of the royal and magnificent grant.
The KING and his Court are preparing to quit the Cot-
tage for the Castle, where the apartments are quite ready.
There are but few sleeping rooms, in addition to the
Kum's, and those assigned to the Duke of CUMBER-
LAND and the Duke of CLARENCE, on the first floor, and
which, in the absence of the Royal Dukes, will be occu-
pied by persons immediately about his MAJESTY ; but
the upper chambers are numerous, and fitted up with all
necessary conveniences. These will be given to the
noble guests, who it is the Royal pleasure shall be in-
vited to the Grand Christmas Banquets, which, if the con-
templated arrangements be carried into effect, will be more
magnificent than any that have occurred in our time.
In addition to the Court Circle, all his MAJESTY'S Mi-
nisters and their Ladies, the Foreign Ambassadors, and
those who are usually known as the King's pirate friends
(if that phrase be permitted), are to be invited. The
Duke of DEVONSHIRE, the Earl of EGRIMONT, the
Earl and Lady COWPER, and Lord sad Lady Gs As -
max, are included amongst the latter. The KING'S
general health has not been better for many years ; and his
good spirits, cheerfulness, and urbanity to all who com-
pose the delightful Royal circle, are quite equal to his
health.

EXECUTION AT GLOUCESTER.

On Saturday last William Salewell underwent the
fatal sentence of the law. On Thursday last he was
found guilty of the wilful murder of his wife, and on the
second day after his trial he expiated his offence with his
life. The history of this unfortunate man was truly
wretched. Who his parents were is wholly unknown ;
and the first thing that is known of him is, that he was
a foundling, and that he received the name of Salewell
from his being found at a farm of that name, the pro-
perty of a Gentleman named Ambrose, who lived near
Blakeney. When the unfortunate man grew up, he
worked in digging in the collieries, and about five years
ago he married the unfortunate deceased. The cottage,
or rather hut, in which he lived, was of the most
wretched description, and was situate in the wildest part
of the Forest of Dean : it consisted only of a room formed
by four stone walls and a turfed roof. It had no door,
and there was nothing to prevent the cattle which ranged
the forest from going into it in the night. These miser-
able people had no furniture ; neither chair, table, nor
bedstead ; and there only bed was some loose hay and
fog-grass strewed on the floor. Here lived this wretched
man and his wife ; and, amidst all this misery, the latter,
who was a very meek-epirited and patient young woman,
long suffered from the harsh and cruel treatment of her
husband ; his conduct towards her had always been ex-
tremely violent, indeed so much so, that the unfortunate
woman often said that she could not call her soul her
own ; and it appeared that,. on the day on which she re-
ceived the blows and kicks which caused her death, the
only thing which she had done to provoke the anger of
her husband was, that she told him he had been drinking.
He was a small mild-looking man, with large dark
eyes and straight black hair, and from his appearance no
one would have supposed him capable of such a crime.
However, from the time of his being committed to pri-
son he appeared to be quite resigned to that fate which he
seemed fully aware was awaiting him. The Rev. Chap-
lain of the gaol was from the first very assiduous in pre-
paring him for his• fate.6-however, the wretched man al-
wave mated that his conscience was clear of any preme-
ditited intention of murdering his wife, and that- when he
wee kicking her with•such extreme violence he did not
expect the fatal consequences which followed. This
wretched couple had two children, one of whom has died
since the murder of the unfortunate woman. From the
time of the sentence• being passed no hopes were enter-
tained of a reprieve, and on Saturday* morning- this
wretched being•, after hating peered a life* of the•nroab
abject poverty and wretchedness, ended his mortal' darter
upon the scaffold.

THAMES POLICE.

Tilt Cvsroats Laws.—Yesterday Mr. Abu Crag, chief Elate
of the Earl of Huogerford Indium, appeared before Mr. Damm-
am and Mr. list.s.aurties, open an intoririatiss exlsibited agab.st
him by an dicer of the Customs, for having in his possession one
piece of miles., plate, weighing U otin. es of foreign manufacture,
which bad not paid the duty, and for which offence he was liable
to the forfeiture of the plate, and also the sum of £22 4s. being
treble its value.

The defendant was stopped by an facer as he was leaving iht
dock with the property in his possession.
It was alleged by the defendant that be had no idea of smug-
gling the areicle, and that appeared to be the opinion of the Magis-
trates ; but t►e case being pressed, the defendant was convicted in
the mitigated penaky of Si. Iles and cuts.

MART-LA-BONNE.

frame Dolled and Edward Eggrews, two young men of shabby
etterior, were brought before Mr. Gamuts, charged with the
following aggravated highway robbery: :
It appes that on Monday evening, an elderly man, named
James Over% read hie dairghter, Ann, went to the Crown public-
hones, arl• Eidgetware, where r considerable member of persona
eras maembied, amongst whom were the pd.oners. Whilst they
remained at the t rown, the young woman's veil was stolen,
and on proceeding hone at half-past ten, they were overtaken
near the fourth mile-stone on the Edgeware-road, by the prisoners,
whew *ratan violently mined the girl, and attempted to drag her
away from her father; but finding she resisted him, be desired his
compatriot' tb produce his pistol, for the purpose of intimidating
her. Rpgreen, however, appeared intent on plundering the old
man, from whom he forcibly took a large bundle, containing
wearing apparel' and other articles. and then ran of. They were
ibstantly pursued, and apprehended in the course of a quarter of an
hour afterwards near the Crown, but the property was not found
upon them. The prisoners set up an alibi In thdr defence, and
brnught two witnesses to swear that they were sitting on a bench
opposite the Crown when the robbery was committed ; but Eg-
green was positively identified by the parties, and :he patrol who
took them into custody stated that the Crown was only ten minutes
calk from the spot where Rogers and his daughter were attacked.
Thr prisoners were remanded.

,Ano,poigi of this old debt has any dividend been paid far many
'ears ; per is any paid on the Cones Bands, off will there be
any more. in all probability, on the Royal Loan, or Perpetual
Rent. Yet in this state of utter destitution the Spanish Govern.
moot instructs its agents to boast of its growing prosperity. A
Paper, established at Bayonne, called las Gawks Erpognok,
whose articles are copied into the Moniker, asserts, ea the
" word of honour" of its Editor, that the revenue of Spain has
aegmented from 450 minions of reels, in 3524, to 508.715.515
reale, in 1828 ; and this year he expects it to be 700 Wilkes ;
while the expenditure amounts only to 448 millions ; sot that
there will be a surplus of ISO millions. These can be no quion
that this vast increase its the Spanish Revenue is a wholly frau-
dulent statement, as it is known that the wants of the Spanish
treasury, last year, led them to seize thirty millions, which the
Intendant of Havannah had c&llected for the payment el• calash)
charges ; the King actually sent his autograph letter to enforce
the seizure, stating that the honour of the Crown would be com-
promised, if the money did not find its way to Madrid. The
Treasury. in April. 1828 publicly declared the insuMelenty of
their receipts, as a reason for paying only sine-third of the civil and
military, and one.half of the widows' pensions—a redecdon which
is still continued. sTo lie and to cheat, ' says the Coutitsitionstel,
" and to cheat and to lie—this is the sad trade of those who have
any thing to do, far or near, with the finances of Spain. It seems
indeed as if since the loss of America, iLese people had raised a
pretension to France, and deemed us bound to fill their pockets.—
It is high time, however, that they should leave us to our repose,
and go to find dupes elsewhere, if they must have them."

ENSUING OLD BAILEY SE&4IOIYS.

In consequence of the long interval since the last Ses-
sion, the Calendar, as, indeed, is usual in September and
April, is numerically heavy. We wish we could stop
without further observation ; but with regret we men-
tion, that out of the aggregate there are upwards of 60
who are charged with offences which put their lives in
jeopardy ; and, among the accused, there are members of
the families intimately connected with respectable com-
mercial houses, and country gentlemen. It is much to
be regretted that the crime of murder stains the Calendar
in two of its pages, and some of the cases of alleged
fbrgery, it is said, assume a serious aspect. It is repul-
sive to our feelings to notice, that, with all our boasted
police regulations, there are 56 persons charged with
something like street robbery.
