All you that wishes to be free,
Come near and hear my chat,
Drink no Spirits, Boer, or Tea,
And wear a smart drab Hat!

OLD B.4ILEY SESSIONS.

Saturday John Trapp was indicted for feloniously
secreting a letter, containing a £5O and a £4O Bank
of England Note, which letter came to his hand in
consequence of his employment in the. General Post-
Office. There was a second indictment against him,
fur having in his possession the stolen property. The
prisoner pleaded Not Guilty to the first indictment,
which constitutes a capital charge ; but, on the ap—
plication of Mr. BARRY, his Counsellor, the Court
permitted him to plead Guilty to the second indict-
ment, which subjects him to transportation for seven
years. Ile was, in consequence, with the consent of
Mr. GURNEY, who conducted the prosecution for the
Post Office, acquitted on the capital charge.
John Booth, another Clerk in the General Post-
Office, was next put to the bar, on an indictment
charging hint with secreting a letter, containing a
C 4 Note, addressed to a Gentleman named Weller,
residing at North Cray, in Kent. The facts were now
folly established in evidence. The prisoner made no
defence, but called live highly respectable indivi-
duals, who gave him an ercellent character for ho-
nesty, during a period of upwards of '2O years that
they had known him. The Jury found him Guilty,
but strongly recommended him to merey, on account
of the ercelleut character he had received.
The prisoner was again found Guilty on a second
indictment, charging him with stealing a letter con-
taining the halves of two £lO Notes, addressed to W.
Lamb. Esq. of Wrestiingwortli, near Bedford. There
were four other charges against the prisoner, which
were not tried.
