ROBBERY RI A SILREANTs--•-A lily sham was pet to the
bar on an indictment, charging her with stealing a bon-
net and I is. the property of Sagan eke,, and two gold
sovereigns, and t'n shillings, the property of Mary
Harrison. The two latter persons were employed as
hail s'dressinakers in thehoese is which tire prisoner
lived as servant, and by this means she got access to the
property with which she absconded.—Ouilty.
RESURRECTION Mae AT FAULT.—Thomals 'Vatter,
Jeremiah Crouie and Thomas Lee were put to the bar on
an indictMent charging them with stealing. on the 12th
of April Itot, in the parish of St. Andrew, Holborn, a
large pattock, the property of the Chttrchwartlens.
The particilars of this case have already been inserted
in this paper.
Mr. Abotarttes objected is the catering to the Jury,
on the ground tart th -re was not sothcknt evidence to
warrant them in believing that the intention of the pri-
*oilers was to steal the lock, their purpose being bf a
very different nature, namely, the removal of the bodies
from the vault. This objection, however, was overruled
by the Recorder.
Lee called four persona to speak to his character ; the
other's said nothing, nor did they call any witnesses.
The Jury, after considerable deliberation fogad all the
prisoners got Guilty, on the ground that they entertsin-
rd doubts as to whether the lock produced was the idea.

action, was commit'ed to Newgare for trial.
A young man of respectable appearance, was brought
before Mi. Alderman Smith, at this office yesterday,
charged by his master, Mr. Lloyd, tobacconist, Snow-'
hill, with having robbed hint.
The prose,utor stated, that knowing the prisoner's fa-
ther, who heed in a•village in North Wales, lie had been
induced to take the prisoner into his servile as a foot-
'boy ; and finding him a smart lad, he, at his own ex-
pease, sent him to school, and paid great attention to
him. Witness afterwards placed him in the shop, and
advanced him as he thought the prisoner deserved, till
he made him a confidential showman. Durieg all this
time his conduct was unexceptiooable; and it was not
till within a short time, that, money being missed at sun-
dry times, sad the dress and company of the prisoner be-,
ing much above what his circumstances would warrant,
he was unwillingly compelled to inspect one who had
shared so largely his confide:lW However, nothing
certain appeared a'csinst him tilt last Saturday, when
one of the witness's other shopmen informed him that he
hail seen the prisoner take a half-crown from the till, and
secret it under a ses:l desk in the shop; where, open
swigs, witness found and merimd it—it was afterwards
takes away, hot w,thess could not ascertain by whom.—
Witness declined clrirging the prisoner then, as he was
anxious to have sumething decisive against him. "On
Thursday evening, be wai again Informed that the pri-
soner had taken tnocey from the 611,—three half-crowns
and some small silver. He no longer !midi-sled uto the

'The Worthy Alderman remarked upon theingraiiticle
of the pri“inee, and slid his cells was very great in a
moral point of view—ingralitnd being in all ages and
countries considered as the vile t indications of a bad.
',rum However, be was inclined to think, from circum-
stances, that the prisoner• had been thoughtlessly led
ihto company not at 411 prop .r for one in his situation,
anti had been tempted to codunit the offence fruiu a &lieu
tor dress, and to make an sppearanre neither suitable to
his means nor pirpertations. • Entering into the views of

he could not avoid paying* high and merited compli-
ment to Mr. Lloyd, not only for his generosity and at-
tention to the youth, but also for his forbearance at pre-
sent, and desire for his future welfare.
• The prisoner bnwed respecting to his Worohip and
also to Mr. Lloyd, and then withdrew.
[lt is most extraordinary that those engaged in retail
trade, should keep tills at all. There are too many young
men ruined by the temptations pat in their way by
their wasters, in consequence of the latter abiding by the
absurd custom of a till to hold what the master's pockets

BO fRECT.--CABRIOLETII V. H•CKNEY-COACHIII.--
Mr. Joe. Arnold, of Duck-lane celebrity, a gentleman
well known in the Funcycircles, appeared upon a sum-
mons, leaned under the Highway Act, to answer the
complaint of Jasper Lincoln, the driver of a back-ca-
briolet.
Ou Saturday, the 3d inst., Jasper Lincoln drove a lady
and gentleman in his cabriolet to Acton, and in returning
empty, he called at a puhlic-house in that village to give
his horse some water. Here he found Mr. J. Arnold also
watering his horses—for Mr. J. Arnold, when there is
nothing particular piing on in the "fancy line," some-
times amuses himself with driving a jareey, and upon
the present occasion, looking upon himself at a represen-
tative of the "jarrey Interest,"he determined upon show-
ing off against " the cabriolet interest." So. as soon at
Jasper Lincoln drove up to the door, Mr. Jos. Arnold
began, by " d—g all cabriolets, and them what set
'em a going!" Jasper Lincoln took no notice of this
sweeping attack, and then Mr. Joseph Arnold descended
pettmonlities, by el—i all cabriolets and them
'what 'elinve 'em Mi net 'one • own Imsiness, Mr.
Arnold," said Jasper Lincoln; " you are a very
`end roan in your way, I believe ; and you mind
your concerns and I'll mind mine." " Wo't gallop
wi' me ?" asked "Mr. Joseph Arnold. " No," replied
Jasper; " I w'll tint." " Wolfight wi' me ?". asked Mr.
Joseph Arnold. "No," replied Jasper, " I'll have no-
thing at all to do with you." " Than 11—mme I'll run
tket'doten !" rejoined Mr. Joseph Arn 'III. And he did
his best to be as good as his word ; for when Jasper Lin-
coln hail watered his !One anti drove off towards town,

Mr. Joseph Arnold instantly mounted the box of his
coach, gagnpe I after him, and, coming abreast of him,
suddenly pulled in upon the cabriolet with the iseentino,
as it appeared, of throwing the cabriolet over into the
ate sr-side ditch. But it dhl not mower: for Jasper Lin-
coln bring upon his gu.rd, checkhd las horse and barked
nut of his way. Mr. Joseph Arnold; being thus foiled
in his muting-down scheme, placed his jarvey right
arrows the road, and swore he wotil I tither snake him
turn hack or keep him where he was all night. At this
moment, however, a gentleman, coining along the road
nn foot. saw what was going on, and got into the cabrio-
let, observing that. be should then be a witness of Mr.
Joseph Arnold's conduct—should he otter any further
obstruction. Upon this, Mr. Joseph Arnold thought
proper to toddle 'off with his jarvey ; and Jasper Lin-
coln and his friendly fare quietly pursued their way to
town.

The Magistrate now culled upon Mr. Joseph Arnold
for his defence—ill-it asking him if he was only the driver
•f the hsekoey coach in question ?
" No," rPpliefl Mr. Joseph Arnold, " No—l'm both
driver and proper-rioter.
" No doubt of it," rejoined his Worship ; " and watt
bare von to eat lever defence?"
"Whit, I've Misrule say," answered lie—" that all.
