THE CONSPIRACIES..-.Saturday the LORD MAYOI,
ac-ompanied by Mr. Borneo, the Chief Clerk, west
to Newgate, where his Lordship resumed the inves-
ligation of the various cases in which the party cos-
victed had complained of being entrapped, or where
convictions took place, in which the evidence of Broci,
Pelham, Power, Vaughan, Johnson, and others of thu
description, prevailed. His Lordship remained en-
gaged in this laudable work from ten o'clock in the
morning until halt-past five in the evening, many of
the parties convicted being ordered for transporta-
don ; and the LOUD MAYOR being desirous that no
removal should cake place upon the evidence of the
persons alluded to, until the matter was fairly and
thoroughly investigated. The above-named persons
were, as occasten required, present at the investiga-
tion of the several cases, and we are happy to learn,
that with the exception of those which have subjected
the person: mentioned to just ignominy, all the con.
Ivictions for felony appeared to be just and goad.—
Several cases of misdemeanor, however, that is for
the passing of pad money, have been discovered, in
addition to those ~which were _some time since pm--
seined to the Aketilic,thropgh the exertions of the
LORD MAYOR., ;in. tfisse.diabolical practices, two
officers pt Middlisea have _takers an. active part, and
with others of theiustainp,.have not unfrequently re-
ceived ten, fifteen, and twenty pounds front the
Bank of England, for die conviction of some poor
ignorant wanderer. A.wretch, the creature of these
harpies, named Co/frnr, has been known to declare,
that he would nut act in the capacity of a-40 nose,"
otherwise informer,- upoo such occasions, under a!
certain price ! It is remarkable that one of the un-,
fortunate men (Caney) convicted of uttering bad
money in this way, had been previously tried, pith
three others, for the capital offence of coining (but
who were acquitted upon a point of law stated in
their behalf by Mr. Justice Bailey), and whose story,
which is Corroborated, is in every respect similar to
that of the three Irishmen, as to .being engaged in the
work which brought him before a Court and Jury,
and ultimately praced him in prison.
Upon the subject of the unfortunate persons some
time since discovered to have been convicted in the
manner described, and who still suffer incarceration,
the Loan MAYOR wrote a litter to the Secretary of
State, but he has net yet been favoured with a reply.
His Lordship means to renew the application, and to
report, of course, the cases of the individuals, which
he investigated on Saturday, in the hope of obtaining
for all a free pardon and liberty.
