Just as the Marylebicoe police-office was being eosed on Tuesday evening, a fresh complaint was oreferred against Godrey, alias Cooke, of whose examination n a chargc of swindling we gave an account in onr publication of vesterday. The complain. ant was MUr. Ckrpenter, livery-stable.:keper, ef *he Bdgwarc- road, of whom the defendant had contrved to obtain a horse and gig on hire. representingthern t;i be for the use of Mrs. Saun- ders, a lady of foltune, residing at No. 9, Beaumont-street. This AIMrs. Saunders was somne sbort time back resielirg at Craven-hill, and previously at Bayswater, under the sounding name of Mlrs. Stamp Su-ton Cooke, and is the same person whose escape from the rulesof the King's Bencl prison beuame thesubjecttof a trial against the Alarshal in the Court of King's Bench on Tuesday last, when a verdict was obtained by the detaining creditor for 1291. odd, being the amount of his bill for furnishing her house at Bavswa;cr. The complainant was desired by Mir. Hiosais-s. the sitting magistrate, to ca!l eon Thursday, wuen the prisoner would be re-exmnained. The beneficial influence of police-reportinig haI been already apa.a- TCtIL it) thiS c-ase, as several persons who have been swindled by thjis party, having seen the report of the examination in yesterday's daily papers, came forward in the course of the day-, and communicated to Buckeridge, the officer who arrested the prisoner, their intention of appearing this day, and stating their cases. Among other per- sons was J'tr. WVeston7 of 20, Howland-street, who, seeing the re- port in Tihe Times, came forwavd, and stated that they bad obtaihed from him a pedal harp of the value of 40 guineas. Wve stated in yesterday's publication that the prisoner case to the office,acco ipanied'bv ar elegantly dressed femaale, who, however, left imm.ediately afterthe magistrate had pronounced his decision - and notwithstanding the respectable appearance of the prisoner, such was the szute of his pocket, that he was obliged to submit to be taken to prison, linked to the miademeaaants and others sent down from the office on that dav. On arriving at the prison, it appeared he had not cven money to pay for the accommtodation of a b-ed for the night. Mir. Owen calculates that 200 armns, with machines, now manufacture as much cotton as 20.000,000 of' ars were able to imanufacture without inmchines 40 years ago; and that the cotton now manuf'actured in the course of one year i% Great Britain, ivould require, witbout machines, 16,000,009 of workmen vwith simple wheels. He calculates farther, that the quantity ofnmanufanctures of all sorts, at present produced by British workmen wvith the aid of nachines, is so great, that it wzould require, without the assistance of machioery, the labour of 400.000,00 of worken. EXE COTiO AT HEaltFOitI.-Yesterday miorning, hiur- suant to the directions of the learnel Judge, Mlr. Baron (;arrow, who went the last home Lircuit.

The Rev. Alr. Franklyn read aloud, as the melancboly grcup nioved to the scaffold, the burial service. The culprits moved quickly, and walked with much carelessness of manner, and, on reaching the foot of the ateps leading to the plat. form, ran, or rather jumped, swiftly up, and nodlding to some per- sons whom they recoznized in the crowd, smniled, and took up a, position close together uader the fatal beau. r.Joaes then commenceti talking to the executioicr; g'eaver's boa-stedl courage seened suti- *lenly to quit him,3 and his countenance assumed an expression of titatnay and horror. The arrarngenents being completed, the execun tioncr redired, and MSr. WsSilson giving the signal, at five minutes past eight o'Clock this world closed en tmen, aiter a few convulsive struggles. tAdvertisrrenCt.j_E2VGLIst GENTLEOtAN.-On Sunday, the l'Jth inst., a new joumal. under th.e style and title of The Asigfisl.
