STOLEN PROPERTY.  Upon this subject, which, since the Ipswich Mail affair, has been much talked of, Mr. Ham.% the Magistrate at Bow-street, took occasion yesterday to make some strong observations. A Mrs. Seale, in whose house, in Rosemary-lane, about £lOOO worth of property, which had been stolen by burglars from the warehouse of a Mr. Emerson, in Watliug;street, was touud yesterday se'unight, was brought up for re examination, when Mr. Atmaews, as Counsel for the prosecution, begged that she might be again remanded, to give time to procure further evideuce. Mr. HALLS said he should not object to delay in a case of so much importance as this. Now, however, that the Solicitors on both sides were present (Mr. ISAACS attended for the prisoner), as well as all the parties concerned, he felt desirous of making a remark or two upon another subject. It had come to his knowledge, that, of late, where extensive, and, indeed, enormous robberies had been committed, negotiations regularly conducted had been entered into with the rObbers, for the* restoration of the stolen property, upon the payment of stipulated sutras, and other conditions ; and hi viat very sorry to add, that men in the profession of the law, or at least practising as such, had lent thifti selves to these negoeiations, and had been indeed the, go-between in disgraceful transactions of this kind. There were men who had often been profeisionallf .employed in that very Office, and been admitted Ail a matter of courtesy to the Bench, who had been negotiators between the robbers and the robbed.:  What was to become of the justice or ttle eeentry if its courts was to be thus obstructed by men whose duty it was most peculiarly to aid it in its operations ? But let these inaividuals take care; they should not be suffered, *sista been the ease' to carry about stolen property in their blue bagel arid, stipulate for the price of its restoration to the !Awful owner.— Such persons might shelter themselves within the limits of the city, but'let them, or any of their clerks or agents, take case how they did anything of that sort within kis jarlidiction, for if it came to his kns A• ledge, they might rely upon his pursuing the severest measures which the law would authorize. He was not to be understood as applying these remai ks personally to any individual then present ; they we:e thrown out generally, and he hoped Would be attended to. Mrs. Seale must be remanded.  Flizabeth Tomlinson, who was lately committed to Stafford ebunty jail, charged with the wilful murder of her husband, by poison, died on Thursday evening (21st instant). She was infected with jaundice, and confined to her bed when the unnatural  crime was perpetrated. During her short imprison ment, she was regularly attended by the county surgeon, but her complaint was not be subdued by medical skill. To the exhortations of the Clergyman the wretched woman manifested great indifference, and observed, that " she wanted neither Doctors nor Parsons but to the last moments of her existence  she asserted her innocence of the crime with which  she was charged. An Inquest was held on her body, when the Coroners Jury came to the unanimous conclusion that she " Died by the visitation of
