MANSIONMOWD!.....ELOPESIENT......YeSterdair, Mr.'
Jackson, of Wolverhampton, whale daughter's elope.
ment has been frequently spoken cf, waited upon the
Lord Mayor, to return him thanks for his humane
sold effectual exertions in the unhappy case of that
young Lady. She had, he said, returned to her pa-
tehts width) these few days sporit.smciasly, and was
now comfortable in thesociet y of her mother and sistets.
The LORD MAYCR expressed great ple.uosre at this
account. He apprehended, he said, from what he
had before heard of the state of her in :ther's mind,
that the consequences would have been very bad if
Miss Jackson had not returned.

Mr. Jackson—That they would have been fatal I
have no doubt. Her mother wit> reduced to extreme
weakness from refusing sustenance ; and as to her
mind, I shall not attempt to describe what was even
in more need of remedy than her body. The man
who now calls himself the protector of u►y child, and
says he had no intention but a pule one, knew this:
but he would have persisted in his scheme, had it not
ben for the publicity given to the circumstances.

The Louts Mayoa s.tid, the Press was a more
powerful instrumet.t than was generally supposed.--
In thin case it bad intimidated the mest ungovern-
able of the passions; and probably, but fur the dread
of further exposure, which w utd have been made
without the ceremony of going into a Court of Jus.
rice, the girl would have had to pass through the
usual routine of debeocberies before her fascists saw
her again.
Mr. Jacksnn Said, the moment it was perceived
that t:.e Paiwts would go as far as possible in the
matter, A message was received by him, desiring to
know wi,ether he would receive his daughter ? Tile
Answer might be easily guessed at. Her uncle met
, this Protector, received from his hands the poor girl,
:sod conducted her to her parents, by whom she was
!revived with open arms. Immediately before this
took piece, the firm to which the Gentleman belongs
met and advised the worthy partner to repair the
misery he had occasioned as well as I.e could, by re-
storing her to her mother.
The Loao Mime said, he had every reason to
think that the tear of ridicule, on account of the dis-
proportion of her age, had induced the person to do
this act of Justice.
Mr. Jackson—Whatever be the cause, I am happy
in recovering her. Her mother is no longer wretched.
I owe it all to your Lordship, and I came up from
Wolverhampton to tell you so. May Goo bless you!
• HAMM-GARDEN—if Rowland for an Oliper.—A
man, who had formerly been convicted tar a like.
trespass (under a local Act of Parliament made for
men's Town) by the Inspector 'of the Pavement,
brought the Inspector up to this Office yesterday, for
wheeling a barrow loaded witlidung along the pave-,
went in Chapel-path. He stated, that the pavement
WAS broke up in the road,' to lay down pipes, and
that he must either submit Co the nuisance of allow-'
ing the dung to collect in his stable, or wheel it on
the footway when he removed it. Mr. RAINUORD,
one of the ISl.4istrates, however, having suggested
that the Act was imperative, and admitted no plea in
hew.,, convicted in tne full penalty.
Guttorraue—W. Smith, around whom a crowd of
peopl: had c• fleeted in Fleet.streer, and from whom
lie had exulted money by a piteous tale of being ill
and in a starving condition, was charged as an im-
postor. A Surgeon attended, and stated him to be
in perfect health ; and he was committed as a rogue
and vagabond.
Mr. Duckworth, a gentleman connected with ieve-
' ral mercantile houses in the City, was brought up
under the following circumstances :—Mr. Broadhurst,
tailor, of Gunpowder-alley, Fleet market, stated, that
he was at the Swan public-houses in New street-
square, reading an advertisement offering a reward
for the apprehension of one Thompson, who had
swindled several persons at Gibraltar ; when Mr. 1).1
came in, and in conversation stated that he had lately
come from Gibraltar. Complainant asked him his
name, and he replied, Thompson. Supposing him
to be the man of whom he had been reading, he
went to fetch Mr. Turner, a constable ; but on his
return Mr. D. was gone. After some time, however,
he found that he lodged it the Bolt-in-Tun Inn, in
Fleetestreet. He therefore again went to Turner,
who had retired to bed, and 'forth they went to the
Inn, where they found Mr. Duckworth, who in vain
attempted to convince the tailor of his error. The
Constable represented the dissimilarity of Mr. D.'s
perion to the description of the culprit ; bat nothing
' would satisfy Broadhurst, and he even threatened the
Constable if he neglected his duty. A coach was
sent for; but, after some time, it was agreed that
Mr. D. should continue at the Inn ; and the coach,
'after waiting taco hours, was discharged. Oa their ,
appearance before the Alderman, he expressed his
surprise that any person should take Mr. D. for the
person described ; observing, he no more resembled
the culprit than lie (the Alderman) dideHercules ;
he should therefore discharge him, and he recom. ,
mended him to pursue proper steps to ensuie indent- ,
nification. Broadhurst, however, would not acknow-
ledge his mistake, and went grumbling away.

Sittings appointed to be held in Middlesex and
London, before the Right Hon. EDWARD Lind EL-
