A Court of Proprietors was held yesterday to receive

GUILDHALL.

One of the waiters in the Guildhall was brought up, on suspicion
of intending to steal two glass pepper a9torc, which he bad been
observed, by one of the Lord biayot's Contniittee, to secrete in his
coat pocket.
The Contmittee•tnan was not in attendance to support his charge,
and the prisoner (who declared he put the castors in his pocket for
safety, seeing they were about to roll off the basket of crockery he
was carrying to the kitchen) was remanded. The articles were
produced ; they were of the commonest description, not cot, but
rough blown in a mould, with plated tops, and might be of the value
of 4d. to 6d. each. _ _ _

3lr. Alderman AvstAY said, the preparations for the feast were
the meanest hr had ever wit relied upon such an occasion. lie could
not help feeling ashamed to see the Prince Polignac eating with a
horn handle and three iron pegs stuck in it for a fork, and he thought
the Prince seemed disgusted with it too.—(Laughter).

Of pickpockets, attendant upon the civic procession, there was a
large assortment—some fourteen or fifteen Jews and Gentiles, of all
sizes; and for the most part taken into custody by those who have
no business to be meddling with such matters in the City—viz. the
Bow street patrol. Some of the prisoners had been caught in the
fact, and were committed to Newgate, preparatory to their retiring
from business altogether in this country; whilst others were only
suspected of being about to qualify themselves fur such retirement.
Among the latter was one Mr. Illnurice Delay, a worthy protessor
of pugilism—a giver and taker of black eyes and blood for the
amusement and profit of the Gentlemen of" the Fancy." He was
brought in by James Brown, one of the Bow-street patrol, who de-
posed, that being accidentally on Ludgate•hill whilst the civic pro.
cession was proceeding towards Westminster, he aaw Mr. Maurice
Delay and about twenty other "suspicious characters," dividing
themselves into parties, and meeting together so as to jostle and
bustle the innocent gapers at the " strew" between them; and hr
had no doubt they did " much business" by those means, but he was
unable to detect them in so doing, and the prisoner was discharged.

MARY-LA-BONNE-

Yesterday a respectable female, accompanied by two little girls,
stated that the children are motherless, and their father, a Mr.
Hatt, a few months ago, went the Northern Circuit, as a Reporter,
and had not since been heard of. He left Use children under the
care of a person at Kentish-town, but u he had not made any re-
' tance for their support, that person declined keeping them any
longer, and therefore bad brought them to her, who is their grand-,
mother. She did not believe her son meant to desert the children;
for he was too fond of them, yet she could not account for his
neglect ; but much as she wished to give them a home, she did net
possess the means, and here her tears prevented her saying more.
The children evinced great sensibility of their destitute condition,
when a Gentleman said he knew the father well, and had seen him
lately in Westniureland. He represented him as an eccentric cha-
racter, and he believed him to be still in that part of the country,
writing a poetical description of the Lake of Windermere.
Mr. Guerin' recommended the children to the care of the Parish
Officers of St. Pancras, and desired that proper enquiry should be
made to find the father.

THE INTENDED EAST LONDON THEATRE.

Mr. PILINDIRGAST opposed, on behalf of the parish officers of St.
George in the East, and stated that having learned through the
medium of the Newspapers, that the Magistrates had promised to
give Mr. Dunn a Licence for his intended Theatre, in Cannon-
street Road, as soon as It should be built, they wished to inform the
Court that it was their intention to oppose the application for that
licence, as they had many objection to urge against the situation
which be had selected for such a purpose.
The CUAIRMAN informed the Learned Counsel that the statement
in the Newspapers was erroneous, as he had given no pledge to Mr.
Dunn as to the result of any future application on his part. He had
merely stated that to. Mr. Dunn personally he knew of no objection,
but that the Court could entertain no application for a licence for any
place before it was built.
Mr. PasiwesoAsT observed, that the parish would be perfectly
satisfied with the LearneeiChainnan's correction of the misstatement.

Nov. W.—Samuel Powell and. Sonnet Lingtarty Glynn, were ha.
dieted for an assault upon John Van, a Bow-street patrol, on the
12th of last month.

The Jury returned a verdict of Cmins. and the CuAtessim after
bestowing a severe reprimand'on tbr prisoners, tined them 71. each,
upon payment of which they left the Court.

MIDDLESEX ADJOURNED SESSIONS, Nov. 9

Joseph Woolfe, and siz other defendants of the Jewish
persuasion, name.l Hymns, Moss, Sampson, So&mons,
and Henry and Isaac Alexander, were indicted for a
fin:, and an assault upon Isaac Lazarus. •
The-trial occupied a considerable portion of the morn-
ing, all the defendants Counsel having addressed the
Jury on behalf of their several clients respectively. The
principal circumstances established by the evidence for
the prosecution were briefly these :—A puce of ground,
situate in East-lane, Mile-end, having become the pro-
petty of Messrs. Levy and Harris, was by them let as
a burial ground to the Synagogue in Leadenhall-street.
Not receiving the consideration for which they had let
it, Messrs. Harris and Levy resumed the possession of
the premises, by placing the prosecutor, Lazarus, in
a house e'ected on the burial ground, which was unoc-
cupied at the time. After Lazarus had been in the oc-
cupation of the place about three days, the defendants,
who are members of the Synagogue, came there in a
coach. They had previously applied at Lambeth-street
Police Office for the interference of the Magistrates, to-
wards reinstating them in the possession of the premises ;
and on being told there that they could only recover it
by civil process, they declared their intention of taking
it by force. As soon as they had arrived at the burial
ground, Moss *got on the tots of the coach, and from
that on the wall ; from which, alter throwing broken
bottles at the prosecutor inside, he descended into the
enclosure, followed by Woolfe. Lazarus being outside
the house at the time) Moss got into it, and Lazarus then
placed himself at the door to prevent Woolfe from
getting in also. A scuffle ensued, and Hyams coming
to the assistance of his companions, they succeeded in
opening the door of the burial ground, and let in the
rest of the defendants, who then violently assaulted the
prosecutor, one of them in particular inflicting a severe
wound on his head by a blow of some weighty instru-
ment; after which, they threw him out into the road
covered with blood. He tottered across to the house of
a Mrs. Dilly, who having procured assistance, the pro-
secutor was carried to Lambeth-street Office, and from
there, by the direction of the Magistrate, to the London
Hospital, where he remained in a dangerous state for
five weeks.

- - - -----
The charge of riot having, on the suggestion of the CHAIRMAN,
been abandoned, it was contended, on behalf of the defendants, that
the prosecutor was the aggressor; and evidence to that effect was
produced.
The Jury found all the defendants Guilty.
The CHAIM/AV expressed his opinion that the defendants had
acted under a mistaken notion of the law- and deferred pronouncing
judgment upon them until the first day Of neat Sessions, to afford
the parties an opportunity of coming to some arrangement in the
mean time.

QUEEN-SQUARE

Mr. J. Clements, of Regent-street,wai !barged with being drunk
and disorderly. It appeared that Mr. Clements bad a peculiar me-
thod of imitating the springing of a watchman's rattle, and an
amazing strong voice: he had been in the habit, several times, of
practising this accomplishment, to the great alarm of several watch-
men. Mr. Clement a described himself a teacher of the art of cutting,
to fit the human shape, but would by no means allow himself to be
stiled a tailor. He said, he was overwhelmed with sleep, and was
only yawning, which was the noise heard.—Fined Ss.

• Doyen, Nov. 23.—The account which appesred of
the foss of a French fishing-boat and crew, off Dover, is without
foundation. Some nets brimming to a Dieppe boat ware picked up
at sea, and brought in here, which have this day been reclaimed, and
put on board the boat to which they belonged.
A few days since Captain P. Rogers, in the sloop
Swift, off Oak Neck, bound to New York, three miles
froir land, at eight o'clock in the evening, discovereif
an dr, hove to and the ox swam alongside. In hoisting
him on deck his neck was broke. He proved to be
very fat. On arriving at New York, Captain Rogers
met the owner in the market ; by whom he was in-
formed the ox had jumped out of a market boat at
eight o'clock the evening before. Consequently he was
t*elve hours in the wa►er, and when taken appeared to
be in full strength.—American paper, Oct. 45.
Friday sennight, as Mr. Kemp, a farmer, was return-
ing from Colt fair, and riding at a slow pace near
Saffron Walden, he was observed to fall from his horse
by a person near, who, upon coming up to him, found
him quite dead. It appeared that he died from an os.
sification of the bean.

GRACES OP STYLE.—He that will Witt with preci.
sion, energy. and vigour only, may live only with men;
but he who wishes for suppleness in his style, for
amenity, and for that something which charms and
enchants, will, I believe, do very right to live with wo-
men. When I read that Pericles sactificed every morn•
ing to the Graces, what I understand by it is, that every
day Pericles breakfasted with Aspasia.—Marmonlei.
The current American term " Yankee," was a cant
or favourite word with one Jonathan Hastings, a settler,
at Cambridge, North America, about the year 1715.
The inventor used it to express excellency. F'r in.
stance, a " Yankee good horse," or " Yankee cider;"
meant an excellent horse, and excellent cider. The stn.
dents of a neighbouring college were accustomed to
hire horses of Jonathan; their intercourse with him,
and his use of the word upon all occasions, led them to
adopt it, and they gave hint the name of " Yankee
Jonathan." It was dispersed by the collegians through-
out New England, until it became a settled term of re-
proach to all New Englanders, and eventually to all
North Americans.—The Mirror.

Tt will be recollected by our readers, theta case- caMeon at Bow-

nthers were charged with a conspiracy, in taking his wife to a pri-
vate titad.htitiee. Grindell was held to bail, as Was a Mr. Stanton.
I.(lie lute: had engaged Mesiri. Amory and Coles as his solicitors;
and one of their clerks, named Gardner, having been sent to give
Mrs. Grindell notice of the trial, was violently set on by the Lady,
and afterwards sent to the watch-house, as one of the party that.
conspired to carry her off. Oa Saturday the charge and counter.
charge were heard. Mrs. Grindell declared her absolute conviction
that Gardner was one of the party who committed the assault on
her nn the 27th of September, and she observed the circumstance

contended, proved that Mrs. Grindell was mistaken. He hes four-
Iteen clerks, and part of their duty is to enter the names of persons

of the 27th of September were in Gardner's hand-writing, who.

She and Mr. Grindell were then sworn, and Mr. Gardner was in
consequence held to bail.
While Mr. FITZPATRICK was taking the evidence, Mrs. Grindell
said, I will swear that Gardner is one of the pessons who assisted

THE NEW LONDON BRIDGE.

The first stone pf this bridge now executing by
Messrs. J. and G'. Rennie, Engineers) was laid by Mr.
Alderman Garrott (then Lord-Mayor) on the 'lsth of
tune, 1823. • William John Jolliffe, Eq. and Sir Ed-
ward Banks, have contracted to complete the same be-
Ave Msrch, 1830, for the sum of 468,0001. The midd'e
arch of the bridge will he 150 feet span, and 37 feet 6
inches rise ; the arches next the centre, 140'feet spin,
'and 35 feet 9 inches rise, the springine being seven feet
six inches below high-water line. The catnap road
isver the Bridge is to be 36 feet wide, being 12 feet
wider than Blackfriars Bridee; and the f •ot paths are
each to be of the width of 9 feet. The abutment and
two piers next the Surrey side are so far advanced that
several courses of arch-stones are set, and the centres are
getting ready for these two arches. The steam engine,
being no longer wanting there, has been removed from
the Surrey-side, to be employed in pumping the water
out of the remaining three coffer dams, on the City-side
of the river, two of which are sufficiently advaaceil to
admit of the two piers being founded tbis season.—
Ti se whole of the outside work and the arch stones
are. of granite from Aberdeen, or .from Haytor, (De-
von) which is very like the Aberdeen, being a stone
of a blueish colour, and very bard and durable.-
-The interior will be built principally of Bramby Fall
and Whitby stone —From Parliamentary evidence, it!
appeals, that on an average fourteen people were
drowned every year by shooting the Old Bridge; and
as the water is now still mote obstructed by the npw
works, it was found necessary to take down two of the
aches of .the Old Bridge, after having susstitutede on
of wood, in order that the pier in the middle might be
removed; which will, no doubt, afford great relief to'
the,current. The piers of the New Bridge are built
upon beech piles, the tops of which are considerably
below the bed of the river, and 45 feet above high
' water. The foundatinn is farther protected by a row
of piles, driven quite close, and completely tut rounding
the bearing piles, so as to prevent any current of water
getting through them and, loosening_ the gretand. The
system adopted at the Waterloo and Lc:nada Bridges,
, of forming a coffer-dam round the pier, stuf pumping
out the water, is expensive. but the only plan that can
be dependedupon for security. This was demonstrated
in the ca,e of the two piers of Westminster Bridge,
which fell before the bridge was completed ; they were
built in caissons, or large boxes, above water, and after-
wards sunk in their places—a system very much in
vogue at that time, but since brought into discredit by
that and other similar accidents.

COURT OF CONDELEGATES, Nov. 17._

At the time the Court was about to adjourn, the
LORD CHIEF JUSTICE observed that be bad received a
letter complaining of the conduct of an attorney. His
.Lordship begged to say this was irregular; it was no
.use for persons to address themselves to the Judges, I
they could hear no complaints or statements of miscon-
duct of peiSORS behind their backs. if any patties had
reason to complain, it must be by affidavit, which should
be read in open Court, giving the parties complained of
an opportunity of defending themselves.

No business of any moment occurred before the
Court. Dr. LER (one of the Surrogates) inquired into
;he progress of the suit of 41 Brisco against Brisco," in
coarse of appeal from the Consistory Court to the High
L'Autt of Delegates. The Registrar replied, that the
warrant bad been sent op the first day of the present
tem. Dr. LER reiterated his protest against the delay
which had taken place in this suit, a hich he declared he
'would bring under the notice of the High Court.

The intelligence from Groningen is still of a very
gloomy character. In the week closing oo the 9th inst.
the number of deaths still amounted to 105, which was
fire more than the preceding.

This great match ,which drew together many sporting characters'
took place yesterday over a mile piece of ground on the Ipsvrieh
Read. Mr. Barfield, of Norwich, undertook for a wager of MO
sou. to drive two horses tandem, 13 miles in one hour, and to lose
