a nice linkman. At last the prisoner's condert be-
came so very mysterious to him that be was at a loss to
Imo, hew to act, having found that Indeed of baring
ism of the fair sea beside him, his compasion was a
man. The complainant immediately detaiaed him,
and gave him to charge to the officer. The prisoner
being called upon for his defence, said that every word
whkia the complainant had stated was totally erro-
neous. Sir Robert Baker said that it was a very
Wimps offence, and ordered that be should 6nd bail
to answer for the misdemeanour.
A woman named Foster, aged 63, was put to the
bar, charged by Robert Duke, who stated, that yes-
terday evening be was in Brydges-street, and he ob-
served the prisoner pat her hand into several gentle-
men's pockets, bat did not see her take any thing out.
Witness being struck with the appearance of the wo-
mac watched her, and after trying various other per-
sons' pockets withoat effect, she at last succeeded in
picking the pocket of a gentleman in a crowd opposite
Drury-lane Theatre. Witness then informed au of-
ficer of it, and be apprehended her in Bow-street, with
a quaatity of silk handkerchiefs in a bundle : being
asked where she had got the ♦wag, she said a man had
given it to her in Beiford-coart. She was fully com•

BRUTAL OUTR A 6.—lrepterday morning, about n
o'clock, the inhabitants of George-yard, Whitechapel.
were thrown into considerable alarm at hearing ter-
rific screams and load cries of " murder!" proceeding
from a hoes• is that neighbourhood. A crowd of per-
sons immediately assembled in front of the house,
when an ill-looking fellow, brandishing a large rivet-
ring hammer, made his appearance at the third floor
window, who lifted up the sash, and made a desperate
charge at the popu!ace, letting fly at them various ar-
ticles of crockery ware aid other missiles, which soon
ceased them to disperse. The near approach of the
Police being announced, the man retreated front the
window, when instantly a bus•ling noise was heard in-
side, and the cries again became loud. A most fright-
ful scene soon presented itself. The wretch again re-
turned to the window, out of which he, after a bard
strntgle, succeeded in thrusting a female, the features
of whose face seemed disfigured from nouveau and
blood ; she clung fast to the window trams, but the
villain staking her several times with the hammer on
the hands, she was obliged at length to let go her
hold, and was precipitated on the pavement. Fester,
one of the Lambeth-street offirers, accompanied by
Gibbs, Fitch, and Miles, belonging to the Bow-street
Patrol, came up, entered the house, and, after a good
deal of resistance, succeeded in securing two men i
the room where the outrage was committed. A roach
was procured into which the unfortunate female was
put, and conveyed to the London Hospital, almo t in
a dying state, having both her thighs, and arms
broken, and with other severe bodily injuries. The
prhonen were taken to Lambeth•street Police Office,
before Matthew ►Watt, Esq., where they represented
thema•lces as braziers, and their names to be Luke
Smith, and James (O'Brien. The latter proves to be
the husband of the woman and is described to he the
person who had thruun her out of the window' the
other is supposed to be his assistant in committing this
dreadful set. They were remanded for examination
on a future day. Their unhappy victim, who is far
gone with child, is considered in a very precarious
state.

DREADFUL ACCIDENT.--011 Saturday last, just RS
the Royal Mail-coach arrived at SuntL•riand !Iridge.
about three miles from Durham, on the London-road,
the horses took a wide sweep in turning to go over the
bridge, and the wheels grazed along the side of the
wall, but fortunately the coach escaped without being
overturned. and without sustaining any daniAge ; but
it is with deep regret we are under the necessity of
adding, that the occurrence has proved of the most
tragical decription. Two gentlemen, who were upon
the roof the coach, were, in consequence of the violence
with which the wheels came up in cone .ct with the
side of the bridge, thrown from their seats over the
wall upon the bed of the river, which in that part
was dry, a depth of many feet. They were both killed.
Flag.—Between one and two o'clock yesterday
morning, a fire broke out in the colour manufactory
belonging to Messrs. Yallop and Grapes, St. John-
street, which burned for some time with great fury,
owing to some oil vats taking fire. By great exer-
tions, however, the fire was subdued in about half an
hour, after destroying the top part and back premises
of the building.
IMPORTANT DISCOVERY TOR TIE CURE OF RUPTURES.

The immense number of persons that fall victims to a
certain Disease, by being improperly treated, is incredi-
ble. The latent seed of the poison is too often suffered
to lurk in the system, and frequently bursts out years
after ; this is surely of great importance to those on the
eve of matrimony. It was those circumstances which
induced the Learned Doctor to form a Medical Board, at
which Establishment upwards of 30,000 Patients have
been cared—many of them after Hospitals had failed.
