TRURO. SEPTEMBER 21.

Sund.ty evening last; between the hours of seven
and eight o'clock, Mr. Jenkins, keeper of the turn-
pike gate, leading from Penryn to Falmouth, was
alarmed by dreadful shrieks, and on approaching
the place from whence they proceeded, he discovered
a person in the water, which flows up close to his
house ; the alarm had also drawn to the spot Mr.
Tremayne, of the rope-walk adjoining, who immedi-
ately rescued the. sufferer, who premed to be a ser-
vant girl of Falmouth, named'--'- Hicks ;' cn com-
ing to her senses, she informed them that her throat
had been cut by a man whotn die described to.be in
a light coloured di ess, and-who had thus inhumanit
treated her, and afterwards thrown her into the water,
in consequence of her refusal to comply with his de-
sires ; she still lies dangerously ill :it Falmon*.---
About an hotir after this, a corporal of the 'West
Essex Militia; now at Pendennis garrison, was attack-
ed by two foot-pads, one of whom he described to be
in a dreirsimilar to the above • they first seized. 11
bayonet, ind thesibeii and kielred him in* shockinit
manner, mid alter taking his watch, left him.

veyed to the Compeer.
It appeared in evidence, eltwhe prosectitrix Mary
Jackson was passing Through XiarlholoMevi's Hospital
on Siotdaryeverting about Iralfioast sit o'clock. and
was" steaOltecf by the prisoner 'T./tit:tan, in conipany
i with the prisoner Holbrook ; that Truman stru.tk her
' two violent blows on the breast, andisnatching her
watch which was.by her side immediately made off:
the prosecutrix recovering from her blowi 'pursued
the prisoner, crying Stop Thief ; that two • persons
passing by at the time secured the prisoner, and the
watch was found near the place where the prisoner
was taken ; he was conveyed to the nearest public-
house, and an Officer sent for to take him into cus-
tody. The Officers, on coming out of the public house,
were assailed with sticks and knives by a large gang,
and a most desperate.scuflie ens*, and the Officers
with great difficulty put the prisoner into a hackney-
: coach to convey him to the Comptert but, on the way,
the gang cut the traces and tlae reins of the horses,
and endeavoured again to rescue the prisoner. The
Officers, however, being rejnforscil by two or three
more, Stanton, one of the Officers, rushed though
the mob to the coach-door with a Israce of pistiils,
and with great resolutioti threatened,;p-shoot the pri-
soner or any one who should approach to rescue him.
After a violent contest, they succeedaCtin placing the
prisoner in another coach, and by maintaining a run-
ning fight with the gang succeeded at last in lodging
him in the Compeer, the gang from their numbers
having the effrontery to pursue them to the very
doors of the prison. Three of the o,fficers were se-
verely beaten, and one of them received a wound
with a knife. Several Gentlermn who endeavoured
to assist the Officees had their clothes cut to pieces.
It was impossible from the weakness of the Offi-
cers' party, and the strength of the gang, (being up-
wards of thirty) to secure any of them at the time ;
bit the Officers yesterday morning apprehended the
other prisoners Holbrook and Wyatt, two well known
characters, whom they had marked with others dur-
; ing the whole of the ;array.
Miss Jackson swore to Holbrook as being the per-
! son who was with Truman at the time of the rubbery,
and the Officers positively swore to. both him and
Wyatt, as being some of the most desperate of the
gang.
The Alderman fully committed Truman, and re.
•
manded the other two for further examination this
day.

Bow-STREET. Yesterday Benjamin Berndt was
brought by Charles Humphries to the above Office,
who said he apprehended him on Saturday night,',
about twelve o'clock, in Drury-lane, and well know'
ing him to be a pickpocket, and suspecting him to be
there for the purpose of felony, he took him into cus-
itody. On searching him he found two valuable poc-
ket handkerchiefs, and two pawn-brokers' duplicates
•for others that had been pledged in the course of Sa-
turday.
Mr. READ, the Sitting Magistrate, convicvd the
I Prisoner as a reputed thief, under the Police Act.
I William Cross, of Grub-street, Westminster, was
Icharged with harbouring and concealing Wm. Bas-
sam and Thomas Lear, deserters from his Majesty's
I Royal Marines.
William Bassam, one of the deserters, was admitted'
an' evidence, and stated that he was a private in. this
Woolwich division of Royal Marines, and that on the
14th of last July, he, in company with Thomas Lear,
another private in the'same division, deserted from
Woolwich they •Went in their regimentals and side •
arms to the house of the prisoner, where they were
concealed till Monday the 16th day of tfie same
'month; the prisoner knew they had Aleserted, •and he'
leave him an old coat and 'pair -of breeches IselonriAg
:to the prisoner.. Thomas Lear had also fromtbe
'toner an old coat and a pair of breeches. The priso--
oer supplied them with victuals and drink, for which'
they did not pay, hut paid for the liquor which they
lad.—The prisoner denied the charge. •
'A he Magistrate convicted him in the penalty of
,IV2O, and in default of payment in four days, to be.
'committed for six months.
UNION HAEL.—Yesterday, Ann Ramer, a woman
who keeps a !Untie of 11l faMe in Artille: y-place, St.
George's fields, was brought before *the Magistrate
under the following circumstances Sometime since,
a daughter of Mr. Brandscomb's, who keeps the Sur:
rey Theatre, quitted her father's house, and for sever
rat days eluded all the search which was made for
her ; after some time, however, Mr. Brandscomb was
informed that the 'child, wi:o is only ch.-von yeats of
age, had ben seen at the house of the piscine= he
immediately applied at Uni,r, Hall on the subjecti
and Goff was ordered to go and search Mrs. Rutter's
house. The child, however, was not to be found
but the Officer took Mrs. Rutter and three girls
whom he found living in her house, the eldest of
whom did not appear to be more than fourteen, into
custody. These girls, who it was roved lived by pro.;
stitution, and presented a shocking spectacle of vice
