PRICE ID.)  OLD BAILEY, MAY 20.  and pay my rent. I cannot, dear Sir, say more, begging that you make it known, because of men who may suffer for what I have done, and you may depend that what is here related is true. Adieu, dear Sir." The letter was not signed, but was addressed " Nathaniel Stanwood, Esq., Calthorpe street." The Coroner having read the letter, made no observations upon it. Mr. Stanwood requested to have the letter back again. The Coroner's clerk said that the Coroner would re AN A3lOUR.—Ernest Elsnor, a foreign Jew, and Caroline his wife, were indicted for inveigling and feloniously robbing Joseph Lucky, a pork •butcher, residing in Upper Marylehone street, of a sum of 191. The prosecutor, who does considerable business as a pork-butcher, had an affair of gallantry with the male prisoner's wife, who is a very pretty Jewess, and who assured the prosecutor that she loved him much more th-in her own husband. An assignation was made between them for Friday night last ; and the prosecutor, understanding that the male prisoner was to pass the night from home, went about twelve o'clock to his house, in Quixotte-row, New-road, opposite the Golden Compasses, St. Pancras, and was let in by the female prisoner, having given the bell a gentle pull. Much time had ❑ot elapsed before they got into bed, both having completely undressed ; and in about two minutes subsequently, the male prisoner burst into the room, and rushing up to the bedside, cried out to the prosecutor, " That's my wife you are in bed with ; I'll murder you." The prosecutor, alarmed, jumped out of bed, and rushed to throw up the window, which he found fastened, and with much presence of mind be broke the glass and cried for assistance. An individual, named Jasper Lincoln, who lived opposite, hearing the cries for help, burst in the outer door, and narrowly escaped being massacred by the male prisoner, who was vowing " death to the prosecutor." A policeman hastened to the spot, and by the aid of his lamp the situation of the parties was discovered. The prosecutor stood upright in his shirt, and found that his breeches, which contained the money, together with the rest of his clothes, bad been taken from the bedside, where he had laid them. On discovering them in another part of the house, he found he had lost his money ; and the whole of the parties were taken t if to the stationhouse by the officers: the prosecutor on a charge of illicit commerce with the male prisoner's wife ; and they on a charge of having conspired against him and robbed him. There was then no other person in the prisoner's house, and the officers, on their return, discovered the whole of the money : consisting of a 10/. note, a 51. note, three sovereigns, and two half sovereigns. The male prisoner, in his defence, denied the robbery, and all participation in conniving at his wife's guilt with the prosecutor, whose visit be bad reason to expect on the night in question; and be, consequently, told his wife, in order to entrap her and his " dishonourer," that he was going on business, and would not be home for the night. H.-, however, managed to get into his house before the prosecutor arrived, and heard the prosecutor " kish" his wife in a manner that almost drove him mad. He had forbearance until they retired to bed, his object being to make out his case; and then, finding that they had made the room-door fast, he went " thump thump" at it until be burst it open. His wife, he concluded, had been most respectably br ought up in a boarding school, and was most respectably connected. The LEARNED JUDGE summed up the evidence, and it appearing that the female prisoner, whose conduct, be observed, was most disgraceful, bad acted with the sanction of her husband, she was acquitted by the Jury, who, at the same time, pronounced the male prisoner Guilty. He was then called up for judgment, and having been sentenced to seven years' transportatio❑ for his abandoned conduct, he expressed his gratitude for the favour to the Court, and was removed from the bar.
