charged with robbing the Ferry at the foot Of
vesey-street of various trunks OF valuable clothing
which had been left there in readiness for travellers
to start with to the South. few nights since, IL
appears, the house was entered by means of false
KEYS and suspicion fell upon the prisoner. Search

was sadly deficient in quantity, and as the com
planant had refused to recify the mistake, why he
had made use Of that mode tn get possession OF the
Magistrate limited TO the baker. that this method Of
rectifying mistakes was illegal, and ordered him to
find bail.
