The Magistramsasked him what was his objtmt in

making tbirt confession ?
He repiled—m The crime prayed so opnn my mind
that I could bear it no [wiper ; and I thought it hatter
to lay myself uodrr the lash of ibe law, than to remain
in such a dreadful state of mind--especially separated
as I ins from my poor war and children."

self up to the laws, why did you not return to Scotland

AYIIICTING man and his ssife,
of very decent appearance, applied to the Magistrates
to assist them In recovering their lost daughter. The
man wore a coachman's livery coat, and said his name
was John White, and that he resided at Ham Com-
mon. The following is the substance of the singular
story they told:—
In the latter end of the year 1818 they placed
their only daughter in the service of Mr. P. J. a gen-
tleman of colour, wbe had large possessions in the
West Indies, but was at that time residing near. Bul-
strode in Buckinghamshire. Their daughter was
then only 14, and she was ostensibly engaged to wait
upon the daughter of this Mr. P. J , bat they bad
since learned that he seduced her, and that she had
given birth to a child before she was fifteen. About
this time he removed to London, and afterwards went
abroad; and though they used every exertion to ob-
tain an interview with their daughter they could not
succeed. A short time ago they learned that Mr.
P. J. had returned t England, and was engaged in a
sugar house in Mincing.lane. " Hut wben I applied
to know what was become of my child," said the poor
old woman, " he laughed me to aeorn." In costae-
.

Teener. they said, they had travelled all over London
in search of her, bet they could only learn—that after
ber mastet had.sedueed het,-be' took lodgings fur her
at the west end of the tows; where she lived cone
doe as his kept mistress—that at length he deserted
her, leaving her almost pennyless, and that in the
latter end of last year, she was tried at the Old Bailey
under the name of " Davis" for stealing a shawl—
acquitted, and taken away from Nervgate by two
io • coach nobody knew whither.
They wished the Magistrate to call Mr. P. J. be-
fore him, and force him to say what was become of
the poor girl.
His Worship told them he Lad no power to do this.
According to their own account, they had placed their
daughter in the family of this person as a servant,
and it was possible that he might have discharged her
for misconduct, for they bad no proof whatever be-
yond mere report of any of the allegation, they had
made against him. It was very strange, be said, that
her daughter did not return to them when she was de-
serted.
To this the mother replied that she was probably
ashamed to return ; and after some further conference
the Magistrate dismissed them with a recommendation';
1 to make further inquiry respecting her at Newgate,
and he 'ingested the possibility of Mrs. Fry being
able to give them some information.
QUEEN4QUARE.—On Tuesday William Kelly, a
very genteel looking young eau, was brought before
T. RAINSFOCD, Esq charging him %lids having forge,
a cheque upon Messrs. Cocks and Biddulph, bankers,
at Charing-cross. Upon the Magistrate's inquiring
of the prisoner what be was, he stated that he had no
fixed residence, and was of no profession; but Lad
formerly been an officer in the navy, from whence he
was discharged from the ship Florida, about 6vs years
ego, and had not any fixed residence since.
Edward Jones, of Norfolk-place, opposite the Ele-
phant and Castle, stated that be knew the prisoner by
reason of hie lodging fur some time at the Elephant
and Castle,, Witness was a tailor, and bad made se-
veral waistcoats for the prisoner, for which he had
paid him. About a month ago the prisoner ordered a
suit of black, and directed it to be sent to the Ship
Tavern, Charing-cross; he stated himself to be Capt.
C. Dundas. Witoess took the clothes to the Ship Tit-
vern,but they knew no such person;when begot 'boom he
found the prisoner there,who offered to pay witness 31 in
money, and give him a cheque for the remainder.—
Witness would not, however, part with the clothes,
and the prisoner appointed to meet him at the Ship,.
on Monday morniug, at half-past eight o'clock. Wit-
ness went and met the prisoner, who ut the clothes
on, anti gave witness a cheque for 111. lss, upon
. Cux nd Co., saying, " There, my hooker's
is unly next door but one; there is plenty of effects
to answer this cheque, and I shall pay I,01:01. in very
shortly." The cheque was written by the prisoner in
witness's presence, and was sigued, as well as it could
be made out, "R. P. Dondas." Witness presented
the drefr, when it was refuird paymeet ; and the clerk
requested %tithes+ to fetch the person who gave it him
tie went back to the Ship Tavern fur that purpose.
but the prisoner was gone. Witness never saw ih,
