POLICE.
' 111Arrole Beartatar.—Yestethe carious case of two
men claiming a child each as own, came on to be heard,
but Mr: Sergeant Sellon stated that he had no jurisdiction,
aad.that he had granted a summons in expectation that the
parties might/come to an amicable arrangement; but as both
were determined to defend their conduct he must dismiss
the charge, advising the complainant to procure a Habeas
Corpus to bring forward the child. .
MARLBOROVGH STREET.—Yesterday Mr. Wallis' the
proprietor of the Fulham Stage Coach, was condeintretl by
Idle. Oetrairr, the Magistrate, fur having suffered his coach
to sand iO Piccadilly, opposite Hatchet's Hotel, a longer
. time than seeessary for taking up passengers, to pay a pe
malty of 40s. and costs.
QuallSSlPAßE.—Yesterdsy Mr. James Jallion appeared
to answer to the complaint of Colonel James. Both the
putties were driving oat of town in gigs yesterday week,
and were a little beyond Hyde Park Corner, when the de
lindens succeeded in his endeavours to pass the complain-
ant, and then flogged his horse very severely, and struck
•at the complainant himself with his whip. This was the
specific complaint, but it was denied, and met with so many
recriminations, that we think it right not to enter into par.
tiealars. The parties are to-appear made on Thursday,
with witnesses ready to support their statements. .
Uatiost-natt.—A intaicem MIST tiCt.—Two gentlemen
tame to the office in the course of the flay. One of them,
who stated himself to be an officer in the navy, charged the,
• other, a venerable looking gentleman, about 70 years of
age, with having defrauded him on the continent, three
yeses ago, under the following cireamstanees:— •
The naval geatleman then stated, that ahoot three years 1
• age he was at Amsterdam, .and became acquaicted with a
person who went under the assumed name of Wilson, with
velum he had some mercantile transactions, He advanced
to that person from time to time upwards of MIL in money
aril goods, and also put . a witch into his hands. Mr.
Wilson soon afterwards stated. hat be,wislte4l to leave Am •
sterdato for Cologne on a mercantile speculation, which pro.
'lased considerable advantage ; sal previoualy to Isis de-
parture he gave to the eonsplainant a bill of exchange for a
pan of the money advanced. drawn upon the house of
Retbselsild in London, and promised to liquidate the , re-
mainder on his vetnro from Cologne. Mr. Wilson proved
to be not so good as his word, and the complainant was ob-
liged to console himself with the prospect of a call at
Rothschild's, whose-name arse much more to he relied
upon. The day arrived, and the bill was presented, hut to
the surprise and horror of the complainant it was pronoune.
a -to be a forgery. Nothing remained hat to wait with
patience for one of those strange occurrences which bring
about interviews, however little desired by either-or both
parties. No tidings could be beard of Mr. Wilson,' no Mr.
Wilaap,was to be seen until the day on which the complain-
ant appeared before the magistrate, and the old gentkman
whys accompanied him was the very Mtn. • •
'''be defendant, who appeared exceedingly iodignant at
„BakOlive. .declared, in the most solemn manner, that
then was not the slightest ground for the suspicion tbat he
• was the person who commuted this act of then and forgery.
The complainant laboured under the greatest error. He

) never had sten him hafore, and never had visit-
d tire tince the year 1784.
- 'Fhe complainant persisted in his statement. It was, he
said, impossible that he could be mistaken. Of the coup,
teca.nce he bad the most *feet recollection, on account of
tic baseness of the transaction. . The only difference in thi
appearance of the person was, that at Anistertlam the de-
fendant dressed in the most fashionable manner, in compa-
nion with whirls lie was now in complete disguise. 1
Defendant.—You labour under some strange delusion
when you thus positively say that I ant the man I sin not.
A zain 1 declare to you that I am not the person you have
a•rightto accuse and deprive of his liberty. 1 could make

t :Still the plaintiff said be could not he mistaken.
t 'Mr. Young then' informed the Magistrate, that be was
',proprietor of a number of houses in the neighbourhood of
the office, and was well known.
air. Sadler, who lives ita the neighbourhood, at this mo-
ment entered the office, and recognised the defendant as a
most respectable man, whom he had been in the habit of
meeting in London for the last 12 years most constantly.
Anotuer gentleman stated, that he was confident the de-
fendant had not been out of the kingdom for many years,
.litetrthat he would be the last man that could commit the

imputed to him. •
- Thb Magistrate said he was perfectly satisfied that the
complainant was labouring under a mistake. There were

Mr. WYATT.—I doubt whether this is not abduction ;
there is something so immoral and base in the conduct of
the parties, that it should not stop here. The certificate,
on being produced, proved to be witnessed by a
Thomas Toole. The complainant said,Toole was an lush.
man who lived with the mother, and after the marriage
they went out together frequently in a coach, spending
Daley's money.
The prisoner denied that any force had been used to
compel the girl to marry him, bat he admitted that all his
money was gone.
He was ordered to find bail fur the assault.
Mr. WYATT desired Mr. Mingay to indict the wretched
woman Wilson for keeping bad houses, and to make further
inquiry relative to thecircumstances above related, in order
that if they can be substantiated, the parties maybe brought
to punishment.
On Monday last, an Inquisition gas taken at Warboys,
on view of the body.of the worthy and much respected
Vicar of tiodmancheater, the Rev. James Chartres. who,
in the height of health, and whilst conversing on the lux-
uriance of• the season, dropped down anti expired, without
a groan or sigh. His death was occasioned by the rupture of
a blood vessel in his bead, He was formerly Fellow of
King's College, B. A. 1778, M. A. 1781.
ACCIDENT AT DAVIS'S AMPIIITHEATRII, WISTAIINSTSR
BRIDGE.—Last night, a boy, motel James Abraham, let a
bottle fall from the gallery of this Theatre, which struck a
Mrs. Sevens, of the Strand, on the bead. She fell sense-
less from her seat, and on bring taken up, was found
severely wounded. Shawas conveyed• home in a coach.—
The boy, it appear., was in the act of holding the bottle to
his mouth, in the front seat of the., gallery, when several
perions came behind hint, and in their eagerness to procure
seats, struck his elbow, and forced the bottle from his hand
over the front of the gallery.—The Amphitheatre closed
last night.
A SINGULAR OCCURRENCE .—A few days ago a• person
at Snrfleet bad a narrow escape from the fury of a beast
which was grazing in a field through which be was cross-
ing. The animal ran at hint, knocked him dowh upon his
back, and attempted to gore hint with its horns, which
being rather wide sesunder, ran into the earth a consider-
able depth on each side the man's body. In this alarming
state be remained pegged to the ground for a considerable
time, until another beast cams up, which attracted the
attention of the infuriated animal, and caused into release
its terrlied prisoner without any material injory.—(Stans-
ford Noes.) .
Out Tuesday evening the 25th, a fine child, about three
years and a half old, belonging to Mr. Robert Macaulay,
painter, of Lincoln, was burnt by its bed-gown catching
tire, so as to occasion its death. The father and mother
were In an adjoining room, tsking leave of a relation at
the time, when on the child screaming, they rushed in and
tore its bed-gown off; but such is the light texture of the
material of children's clothing, that it no sooner catches
than the whole is in a flame, and the child was so badly
burnt that it died in convt;lsions•about 24 hours after-
wards.
On Tuesday evening se'nnight an affair occurred near Port
&Onto's, which at one time wore every appearance of having a
serious consummation. A shoemaker, who occasionally works
for the Enniskillen Dragoons, was plotting his weary way from
the town to the new barracks, when his choler was roused by the
levity of certain youths, who chanced to laugh at his zigzag pro-
gress. Considering himself insulted, he cuffed one of the boys,
wheuw citizen came up, and, after a short altercation, the parties
agreed to Invest boxing bout. A few minutes demonstrated that
the shoemaker was unable for the citizen. About this time a
soldier appeared and challenged his comrade's antagonist, and
after a brief explanation, several rounds were fought, when a
dragoon rushing forward, struck at one of the combatants with a
stake. A shout of disapprobation followed—all order was In-
' sea'etty at an end—missiles of every description were thrown
',at the soldiers, and they were obliged to seek shelter with-
in the Barrack wall. Having obtalde I a reinforcement of
their comrades, the military salied out, and attacked the
people, who were obliged to fly in their turn. Several of
,them took refuge in a shawl factory, and the soldiers tbrew
stones after them through the windows, and demolished
about 70 panes of glass. While the brawl was going on,
one of the Gorbals Commissioners of Police went and in-
formed one of the Officers, and the moment he appeared,
the military retired to the Barracks. The proprietor of the
factory was ordered by the Sheriff to present an account of
the daniaee his work had sustained to the commanding
officer. which he refused to pay till the affair•underwent an
'investigation, to ascerniln who gave the first provocation.
Fortunately no person was severely injured. Major Maddox
has since Iran :comely ordered that every thing injured
should be completely repaired.—(Glaegoto Free Prot.)
About half•past ten o'clock en Thuradaynight, the guard
in the High Churchyard were attecked and fired at by a
numbersof persons. They instantly fired at the aggressors,
who were afterwards pursued by them and the police, and
finding themselves almost surrounded, • they fled through
the washing-grecoand made their escape. .None of the
men on duty were hurt, and it is supposed that some of the
assailants were.wounded from their repeated cries of " Roe-
der," and "assistance."—(!bid.)
Friday last four men called at the sign of the Blue
Anchor public house, near Ham Green, on the road to
Pill, and after regaling themselves for some time, finding
that the landlady (an aged woman) was the only person
besides themselves in the house, one of them quietly
went np stairs. anti hertan breaking open drawers, boxes,
/cc., which lie emptied of what cash and portable articles
he could find, while his associates below kept up a con-
tinual singing to drown the Guise, bove, and divert the
old lady's attention. Having completed their purpose, they
deliberately walked off, but the woman soon discovering
her loss gave the alarm, when our Member (H. Bright.
Esq.), who.resides close by, and his servants, commenced
a search, and took two of the culprits, Who bad secreted

FAIRS AND MARKETS.
Spalding horse fair on Thursday, Aug. 29, was well
supplied with cattle of every description, which fetched
superior prices.
Corby fair on Tonality se'nnight was also well supplied
with neat cattle, which met Kith a brisk demand. ,
LYNN, Sept. 2.—Since our last we have had toleratly
fine weather, and this day hut little business has been done.
New Wheats were certainly lower.—Barley, very little of-
fering ; that which was in 'fair condition met buyers at
from 30s. to 345. per quarter.--Several samples of New
Oats were offered, which met a ready sale, if in good con•
dition, at about one shilling per stone..
At the first Dundee fair, on Monday, there
were few sheep on the Moor, and those for the most part of
an inferior kind. The prices were dull, and the sales limit-
ed. On Tuesday dive was an abundant supply of fine
cattle ; but no briskness in the sale, and prices were rather
declining. Few dealers from a distance were in the market,
and a great many beasts remained unsold. There was a
scarcity of good horses, but those of an inferior kind were
in abundance. The former met fair sales, and the latter
brought prices in proportion.
YARMOUTH, Sept. 4.—We had a goad supply of Wheat
at our Market on Saturday, (the weather having the ap-
pearance of setting in find,) cansed a complete stagnation
in the trade; and what little business was done was at a
'decline of from 2s. to 4s. per quarter. We have had no
new Wheat at Market yet. '1 he new Barley comes to
hand cold and damp. In other Brain observe no alter-
ation from last week.
LYStrr, Sept. 4.—We have now exceeding fine weather
for the harvest, and we have experienced a great dulness in
our Market: on Tuesday we bad a very fair show of new
Wheat, but the quality is generally damp and inferior; the
hest dry samples have made 525. and 54s , and fine old
Wheats are 4s. per quarter lower. We have several parcels
of new Barley, Oats, Peas, and Rye, which fetch our under-
noted currency. Beans much the same. Reps Seed no
so ready sale, and 1/. per last lower. Flour Is also 3s. per
sack cheaper.
CUIVIIaaTCa Coni-Maarev.—At this market but little busi-
ness was done. There were two samples of new wheat offered,
but we did not hear the price asked. The finest samples for
which a few weeks ago lb/. lbs. had been demanded, were now
refused by 1 millers at 141. The Inspector's return was
—Wheat, 695. 4fd. ; Pease, Ss. fd.
Chichester Beast-Market, on Wednesday lest, was bat thinly
supplied with stock, in consequence of the farmers bt:ng en-
gaged In harvest; the principal part of which, from the brisk-
ness of the demand, was disposed of early. Several graziers,
whose flocks were within two miles of the city—soon, however.
increased the supply, the whole of which was soon disposed of.
Upwards of 200 lambs were sent off for the London market.—
The prices were fully equal to those of last market.
Nose/mit, Sept. Js.—We bad bat a very short supply of
Lean Stork at market on Saturday, and but little business
was doing ; we may report the same of the sheep and lambs.
The Pig market was more plentifully supplied, but the buy-
ers were very thin. Upon the whole, very little business
was done.
At Cawston fair last week, the best lambs were sold at
from 161. to 171. the score, Imt ordinary ones, of which
there was a large quantity, fetched only from 121. to 131.
Warwick fair, on Thursday morning, was well supplied
with cattle, which fetched good prices.
