before Mr. BIRNIE and Sir WILLIAM PARSONS, with
being concerned with two others, in combining a
highway robbery, in St. Martin's-street, en Saturday
night.—Thomas Spilson, a leather cutter, of St.
Martin's-lane, stated, that he was-returning home on
Saturday night, about twelie o'clock, he was met by
the prisoner, in company with two other men, who
surrounded him, and kicked up his heels, and be fell
backwards, when they robbed him of his watch and
hat, which the two other men ran off with. The
prisoner stood over him, holding him down with the
most horrid threats. After he had recovered from
the effects of his fall, he struggled with the prisoner,
and called fur assistance, but none came. The pri-
soner threw him down two or three times, and at
length be ran off,, and made his escape. gave
information of the robbery, and a description of the
robbers, at the Office, and on Monday night, Tho-
mas Jones, the patrole, conducted him to a public-
house in St. Martin's-street, where lie pointed out the

with a number of other men. He was committed
for further examination.

A number of thieves resorted to Greenwich Fair.
on Monday, to rob the holiday-makers. Archibald
Ruthen, belonging to the Odice, detected Robert
Tong alias Willy and Henry niche', two well known
characters. in robbing Mr. White, of Serjeant's-inn.
Chancery-lane, at the entrance into the Park.—They
were committed for trial.

QUIEEN4SQUAREA private of the Guards, on
Saturday last, applied to the Magistrates for a sum-
mons, to bring before them the servant of Alexander
Baring, Esq. M.P. to answer to a charge he should
prefer against him, for obstructing him in his duty at
the British Gallery, Pall Mall. The summons was
granted.
Yesterday the parties appeared; the soldier said,
he was upon guard when the coachman drove up to
the door of the Picture Gallery ; the horses' heads
were opposite his sentry box, and he ordered him to
remove his carriage; the coachman refused, and
struck him with his whip when he was forcing the
horses backwards.

Mr. COLQUrIOLIN.—k What do you say in answer
to this charge, coachman ?'
Servant.—" I drove Mr. Baring to the Picture
Gallery ; he went into the door, and ordered me to
stay with the coach, as he should not be above a mi-
nute ; the moment my master entered the door the
soldier came to me, and ordered me to remove the
'carriage. 1 told him my master would be ont in a
minute ; and, as there was no other carriage in the
street, I said it was not necessary for me to remove,
and I should not. He immediately beat the horses
violently with' the butt end of his gun ; and I, in re-
turn, struck him with my whip."
Mr. CoLuurrotls..." I shall discharge this case;
but as the soldier acted most improperly, he. must
pay the costs."

La:y Chatman, Charles Freeman, .I:den Zver:v, and
two temales, were re-examined, charged with 101)bit,g
a serjeant in the Guards of £4O. The scrjean:, ,ai

HATTON CI A RDEN.-- festerday J. Milliamr, sixteen
years of age, was remanded, charged with atiernptinz
to pick the pocket of Mrs. Hale, of Charlotte-street
Bloomsbury, on Monday last.
UNION-HALL.—RIOT AT BERI4ONDIEY.-•••The neigh-
bourhood of Bermondsey was thrown into a consi-
derable state of confusion and alarm, in consequence
of the riotous conduct of a large body of tanners,
who assembled to the number of three hundred, on
Monday night, and committed various acts of out-
rage. It appeared that Messrs. Timbrell, master-
, tanners, in common with the other masters in the
trade, had been in the practice of giving their men
two holidays at Easter, but from motives of libera-
lity they proposed to the men to work during these
two days, and they should be paid frr their over
hours. This proposition was accepted with pleasure
by the men; but in the midst of their work they %vete
alarmed by a violent attack being made upon the
yard in which the tanpit was situated ; the mob of
tanners entered with dtums beating, fifes playing,
and colours Hying; the colours consisted of long
!pole., to which were appended their working aporns.
They immediately demanded that the men should
come forth to play, but the men refused. Mr. Tim-
brell, senior, came forth, and urged to them peacea-
ble behaviour, but they replied to his mild persua-
sions by knocking him down. At this instant young
Mr. Timbre)) advanced to the rescue of his f*.ither
with arms, and in order to intimidate them, fired a
pima charged with small shot over the heads of the
rioters. Nothing daunted, they continued their at-
tack, when he fired again and wounded several. This
had the desired effect, for they retreated in all direc-
tions, but with a view to demolish his house in the
George road. Fortunately, however, Clark and Col-
lingburn, two of the police officers, arrived, and before
they could put their scheme in execution, took into
custody six of the ringleaders, namely, Daniel Tur-
ner, Thomas Goldsmith, Thomas Fancitt, John
Winch, James Perry; and Thomas Foulke. They
were examined before Mr. Serjeint Swam The
officers were compelled to request the attendance of
Mr. Timbre)), jun, Elizabeth, 'the wife of Daniel.
Turner, who was among the mob, having been
wounded.—Several respec!able witnesses proved that
Mr. T. fired in defence of his life, and the Magistrate
dismissed the complaidt against him. The six mien
were bay committed liar thy riot. • •
