WESTMINSTER SESSIONS.

Several indiElments fur petty larcenies. and for
keeping diforderly houfes, were tried, but none of
them were of any importance.

about fix months ago. During the period of his

The prifonev was difcharged, after an admonition
from the Chairman, to avoid the acquaintance of all
former companions in a prifott.
Yefterday a novel cafe came before the Court. A
profeentor and his witnefs appeared at the Clerk of
tire Indiament Office, and preferred a bill of indin-
ment again(' a man for petty larcency ; but on their
going before the Grand Jury, a difficulty arofe inn ac-
count of the profeeutor not being able to be fororn,

and there being no property found upon the man in

find the bill.

john kred and `John Combe were tried for Ilealing a
quantity of oats. It appeared that the former though
indiaed for Healing, was not concerned in the that ;
he was therefore acquitted, and Juhn Combe was
found guilty.
