Soon afterwards he was walking on one side of Ratclift ' higbway while his sister Catherine Smith , was on the look out ob the other , when a man gave a ' nibble'at his pocket handkerchief , but happening to turn round , and espying the young oman looking very closely after him , he aoon beat » hasty retreat . Soon afterwards , another pickpocket drew the handkerchief at far as It would ' extend out of the prosecutor ' s
coat pocket , the woman seized him by the collar , and mado a prisoner of him . Th » man , however , implored of the woman to let him go , and Baid he was starving . She consented to release Sim , and in less than a minute afterwards a third attempt was made upon her brother ' s pocket by the prisoner , who also drew the handkerchief out to ita full extent , a little bit at a lime , ' but could not suocsed in extricating it . The prosecutor ' * elster pounced upon him and held him fast till a policeman arrived . — -The prisoner said all the wiinesecs were mistaken , and said that he was putting the prosecutor ' s handkerchief in bii pocket , not palling it out . —It was proved that his real name wa « Mutton , and that be sometimes went by the name of Lamb . He had been previously convicted . —The magistrate sentenced him to one month ' fl imprisonment and hard labour .
WORSHIP-STREET Fibiho it a Teiih —W . Pitoh , a toll-colloctor at the Ilford turnpike , was plaeed at tbe bar before Mr Arnold , charged with hiding wilfully fired off a gun , loaded with ball , at sno of the carriages of an « spreBn train or the Eastern Counties Rnilway , whsrebj the lives of the passengers had been placed in imminent danger . —Mr Thomas Miller , the station master at Ilford , stated that on the arrival of tha express train from London at that station , about twenty minutes past three o ' clock on the preceding afternoon , Mr Burrell , a magis . trate for Ipswich , and another gentleman , alighted hastily from one of the first-clats carriages , and informed him that a man had just before deliberately discharged a loaded gun at the carriage in which they were seated , and the ball from which had entered the left window and
passed out at the other elde . On examination of tb » carrlago window he found a perforation about the size of a , bullet , but after a careful examination of tho interior of the carriage , neither the ball nor any trace of it being found , ho coneludedit must bare pnsaed through the othsr window , tho sash ef whioh was dowp . Having obtained from his Informants a description of the perpe . trator of the outrage , he hastened towards the direction given , but was unable to meet with him , and on returning back he found the prisoner in cuttody of two of the passengers who had joined in the pursuit . The prisoner had a gun in his possession at the time , and on asking him whether ho had fired it off nt the time the train was passing , he replied that he had bren shooting at somo birds shortly before it c « me up to him , but had not since
discharged it . On further inquiry the prlionar admitted the ^ nn had been re-loaded , and woe requested to draw the cVargo , when he abstracted from It some small sViet , a further quantity of which , with a packet of powder and about a score of percussion-caps , were afterwards found in hia possession . — Inspector Sparkes stated , that on learning the particulars of tho outrage , he proceeded a considerable distance up the line , in search of the delinquent , and found the prisoner in the custody of a gentleman named Fitzgerald , who had juBt effected his capturo , with the gun in bis possession . Witness then con . ducted prisoner towards one of the carriages , for the purpoie of conveying him to London , when , without any question being put to him , he said , ' I saw you approaching towards me , and threw myself down , that I might escape observation . '—The prisoner here emphatically dented making \ iw of the expression attributed to
!> ina , and in general terms a » Bertud his innocence of the charge . —Mr Widdieombe , who appeared for the proseou'ion , stated that be was unable to proceed further with thecise at present , as the witnesses wb' > were nhle to speak to the prisoner's identity wers in the country , and preined for a rjmand , to give time for their attendance , to which Mr Arnold assented , but said that he would take substantial bail for the prisoner ' s appearance . — At the re examination , none of the other pauasDgera who actually witnessed the transaction being in attendance to give evidence as to the prisoner's identity ; and a gentleman from the office of the company ' s solicitors intimating that he was not instructed to press fur the further detention of the prisoner , if the magistrate would bind him over to appear upon a future occasion , as it was the intention of the company to elucidate the transaction . —Mr Arnold said he should . certainly aocede to that course in the absence of all evidence to
implicate the prisoner ; and should only require him to enter into Mb ree ' egnisaners to insure bis appoarance whenever it might be required . Shocking Depraviti . — - Four boys , named Stopben Brown , Miehunl Gorman , James Hughes , and Thomas Coyle , whoso ages varied from ten to fourteen years , were charged before Mr Arnold with various acts of robbery , and a woman , named Emma Galloway , was charged with inciting them to the commission of the offence aHd f . Iouioufily receiving the stolen property . It appeared from the evidence that about ft week since the prisoner Brown suddenly absconded from the house of h ' t mother , wh ' o ' l * an honeBt hard-working person , and after an incessant and anxious search to discover the fugitive , they at length obtained information that he was
harboured , with several ether boys , at the house of the woman Galloway , in Flower and Denn-strcet , Spita / fidds , Thither the boj ' s brother immediately proceeded , accompanied by a constable named Grady , wbo abruptly en > tered an apartment on the ground floor , and discovered the female prisoner presiding at tho bend of a table , around which the younger prisoners were seated , and in the centre was placed an heterogeneous collection of articles , consisting of sugar basins , silt cellars , a flower vaas , and other property , evidently the produce of recent robberies . On requiring them tD account for the possession of tbo property , one of theb ) j » at . once acknowledged thnt the whole of it had been stolen within two
days from various shops by the juvenile members of . the gang . —The woman Galloway denied this statement , and said that the bays bad brought the property to her house without her privity or sanction , and that they had only firmed a fen minutes before the officer made bis appear * ance . —On being called upon for their defence , the younger prisoners declined saying anything , and the womnn Galloway said thnt she could only repeat the statement she had already made to the constable . —Mr Arnold directed the child Coylo , who waft only ten years of ago , to db given up to hii mother , a poor widow in Finabury . market , but ordered ull tho other prisoners to be remimded , to enable the police to procure tho necessary evidence for the identification of the property .
VANDSWORTH . —Bigabt . —W . Lo Fronde , a shoe maker , was finally examined on a charge of intermarrying with Mary Frost , n widow , hit first wife , Eleanor Frostlc , being still alive . —The prisoner , who is a cripple , married his first wife at Hornchurch , in Essex , in 1829 , and bad eleven children by her , « eYen of whom are now alive , four being at present chargeable to the Ongar Union . The prisoner had repeatedly left his wife and cohabited with other women , by whom he , had also had ohildren , and deserted them in their turB , aiydh&djbaen two or three times committed to prison for neglecting to maintain his family . For tho last five years nothing
had been beard of the prisoner , when Bomb hawkers who come out of Essex accidentally met with him in Wimbledon , and on their return homo informed his wife , who proceeded at once to that place , and having ascertained that he had again married , gave him into custody . —The first mariiage having boon proved , Mary Tanner a widow , proved that she married the prisoner on the 19 th of last September . He represented himself as a single man , and she was then a cook in a gentleman ' s family . —Tub prisoner said he BuOulu MfierVo hi * defence . —Ho was fully committed to take his trial at the Central Criminal Court .
LAMBETH . —Omhtbiis Uuppunism , — William Lippin , the conductor of a Clapbam omnibus , ^ app eared to answer to the following charge ; Mr John Harris , physlciun , 28 , "Albomarleatreot , Piccadilly , said that on the night of Sunday week he got into an omnibus at Clap , ham of which the defendant was conductor , and as soon as tho vehicle bad Btarted a young follow who stood on the Btep commenced smoking a cigar , Wtnes OCOUpied one of seats near the door of the vehicle . The smoke was most unpleasant to h ' im , and ho requested the young
man to desist , but he refused to do so . Us then called tho attention af tho defendant to the nuisance , and re . quosted he would causo the young man smoking to desist , but he refused to interfere . The nuisnnce becoming quite intolerable , ho ( Mr Harris ) insisted upon getting oat of tha vehicle . The defendant , on opening the door to let him out , said , ' You ore a damned troublesome felloiv to take a long journey , and I am ghd to get rid of jt' -u , ' This was expressed in ao insolent a tono that he ( Mr Harris ) requested the defendant to give his number but he refused and culled on the driver to go ou , The '

vehicle moved on , but witness , determined on getting the number of bis badge caught hold of hia coat , upon which he kicked violently at him , and getting off the vehicle Btruck him a blow on the left breoat . The omnibus then went on towards town , and witness , on arriving at the Horns Tavern , took a cab und drove to Gracccburcn-strcet , jwhere he again aaw the defendant , and iigaln asked him for the number of his badge . The defendant hesitated for some time , but ultimately took the badge from hia pocket and allowed him to take hia num . ber . Witness then told him that his conduct wa » highly improper , but he should , notwithstanding , forgive him if he made a suitable apology . The defendant , however , refused to make an apology , and he told him the next place they should meet in would be a ceurt of justice . — The defendant denied the whoUof the charge , and said that the complainant , Mr Harris , had torn his coat , and for this he would own he « shouldered him a bit . '—Mr Elliott remarked that the prisoner ' s conduct on this
occasion was most disgraceful and reprehensible . It was bis duty , when called on by Mr Harris , to have immediately repressed the nuisance complained of by that gentleman and not to have the smoking continued . It appeared , however , that he ( the defendant ) was not aware of what bis duties were , for even before him he had not put on his badga , as required by the act of parliament , and for this omission he was liable to a peaalty of 40 a . Tho magistrate then conTictcd the defendant in the penalty of 40 s . for the assault , ZOs . for Muaing to exhibit his badge or give his number when required , and 20 s . for the abusive language , or , in default of payment , to forty days ' imprisonmen t and hard laboar . TCq magistrate added that the defendant had made himself liable to three other penalties ; namely , that of carrying more passengers than the law permitted , for allowing thayouuff man Jardine to stand on the Btep , and for appearing before him without having his badge on . —Tbe defendant subsequontly paid the « . penalty and costs , and was
discharged . GUILDHALL . A Man Fiqhtiko Himself . —James Long , and Ellen , bis wife , wbo had twe children very claan and nicely dressed , and which did great credit to her as a mother , were charged with creating a disturbance at the White Bear , Alderflgate , under the following ludiorous circunutancea . It appeared that the prisoners , with several other persons , attouded a friend ' s wake and funeral in Golden-lane , and after the latter was over they , as is generally the case , on their way home vlaitod several public houses , and amongst others the White Bear , where they regalod themsolves with some gin and beer , At last James Long began to get restless , and quarrelled with one of his Irlends , at the samo time wishing to fight aim . The otber refused ,
which so aggravated the prisoner that , his valour rising with his excitement , he most heroically offered to take the whole of his friends at once , and scorned the paltry idea of ' one down and the other on . ' Finding that all his magnanimous offer * were moat respectfully declined by his friends , he , to tho astonishment of tha whole partly , dropped down on his knees and commenced an amateur bout with himself , which , after a few smart rounds , resulted in his being the victor over himself by a severe black eye , and several otber contusions about the face and body . He was thon turned ou :, but while that operation was being carried into effect , Ellen Long , like a true and lawful spouse , created a great diversion in his favour , by doubling up a pewter quart pot , and sending it at the heads of tbo landlord ' s son and the barman , She was eventually ejected the premises aad
given into custody . —Alderman Gibbs asked the landlord ' s son whether tlie prisoners wero drunk , and was it possible Long had given himself the black eyes , &c , which be had . —The son said that the parties were sober whm they first entered , and that what had beec stated with regard te Long ' s conduct was perfectly true . —Alderman Gibbs asked Long what he had to any!—Long replied that he was very sorry for what had occurred , and that h » must have been very druok , as no man in his sober senses would so punish himself as he bad done . —Alderman Gibbs thought so too . He should therefore fine him 5 s . for being drunk . With respect to the woman , for the sake of her young children , and believing she was excited at the time on account of the husband , he should discharge her . The fiue was paid and tho prisoners discharged .
MARLBOROUGH-STREET . — False Pbitemces . — Jane Smith was finally examined , charged with haying obtained £ 2 by means of fraudulent representations from the Rev . John Mills . —Mr Mills said that the pri . poner bad called on him , and , referring to a person named Smith , whom ho knew , said she was in immediate want of 12 s ,, and if she had that sum she should be enabled to get £ 10 ., which was due to ber from a burying club at Kennington .

THE EXECUTIONS A . T LIMERICK . Execution op William Utah ( Pcck ) and Andrew Dka . —Long before the appeinted hour for this tragical affair ( Monday , half-past two o ' clock ) an immense coHCoarse of people , both male and female , of all ranks and conditionsin life , had assembled outside the gaol , and great numbers continued to approach until the appointed hour arrived . Every wall , as well a 9 tho roofs of the stores in the vicinity , from which a view of the fatal drop could be had , were covered with spectators . The deportment of the two unhappy men was suoh as to meet the approbation and excite ine admiration of a \! who visited them preparatory to their execution . From the day of their sentence to the moment of death they devoted
themselves to prayer and the other duties of religion . At the appointed hour the sheriff proceeded to their cell ? , attended by the priests , and announced the awful moment had arrived . The poor criminals , whose arms had been previously pinioned , proceeded immediately after , with slow but firm pace , each with a crucifix before him , and attended by six priests , to the fatal drop . In a few minutes after the tragedy was com - pleted , Dea died instantaneously , without a struggle ; not so with Ryan , who appeared convulsed for about two minutes . After remaining suspended the usual time the bodies were taken down , and , as ordered by tha sentence , were interred within the prison . Both , previous to their execution , made a formal declaration of their guilt .
The Nbnagh Guardian adds the following particulars : ' When the convicts made their appearance on the scaffold—who were busied in ( he usual manner , and accompanied by their clergy—a breathless silence pervaded tho crowd . The convicts came forward with a firm step—they spoke not a word . They seemed to , hswe bean Ivuly ptfiUent , and resigned to their doom . After a short time spent in prayer the hangman drew the fatal bolt , when they were launched intf > eternity . Ryan , who was a powerful man , struggled with death for upwards of seven minutes , daring which time the clergyman stood on the scaffold praying over him . Dea made an struggle , for in two minutes after the drop fell his life was extinct . |

FREE TRADE . For tho refreshment of those who think that , in accordance with tho philosophy of Free Trade , it is absurd to take into consideration the means by which the foreign commodities in which we desire to trade are produced , we have taken tho following from a New York newspaper of the 12 th ult . : —
SOUTHERN ODDITIES . 'Notice . —The subscriber , living en Carroway Lake , oa Hoe ' s Bayou , in Carroll parish , sixteen miles on the road leading from Bayou Mason to Lake Proudence , is ready with a pack of dogs to hunt runaway negroes at any time , Tnese dogs are well trained , and are known throughout the parish . letters addressed to me at Providence will secure immediate attention My terms are five dollars per day for hunting thetraile , whether tbe negro is caught or sot . Where a twelve hours' trail Is shown and the negro not taken so charge Is made . For taking a ntgro , twenty-five dollars , and no ebbrgfe made for hunting . James W . Hall '
The above advertisement we cat from the Madison Jopbwal , published in Richmond , La ., Nov . 20 18 * 7 . Ie app aro in the business department of the paper , surrounded by lawyers' cards , tradesmen ' s advertisements , notices of legal business , and patent medicines , Just as ' a house to let , ' ' a earrings for salo / would be published in a free and , Christian countrj , In tho same paper we find a morning hjmn to the praiBe of God ; a laboured essay in praiao of John Wesley ; arid an eUqutat notice of a superior race-horse , In which there ia an appeal' to the Christian and philosopher , * and to all who would not be unmindful of their duty to God and their oountry , ' to cheriih > be breed . The editor gives no intimation of his political , religious , or social opinions , except what may be gathored from these particulurs .
There is but oneeditorial article . In that he apologises for failing to ifl-Ue a paper the week before . The cause assigned is that his journeyman , who had jaBt returned from Mexico , * one of the immertal few who escaped the memorable charge on tho 3 e masked batteries at Ccrro Gorde , was too drunk to work , The paper ii issued weekly , vrbea tho hands are sober , at five dollars per annum . Wo have given tho spirit of the Maduoh Jocbnal , and , we suppose that gives the very < form and pressure' of the people and the times in Ma'Jison Parish , Lnmaiann . ,
The fastidious might think that we had better do without Louisiana augnr than encourage the business of men who . not only cultivate the sugar cane , but hunt negroes with dogs . The Free Trader , however , has but one teBt of propriety in this matter . Do the people who hunt nogroes with dogs sell sugar at a cheaper rate than otber sugar producers who do not hunt negroes with dogs ? If they do , that settles the matter . The direct reBult of theexercise of the highest human intelligence ia to buy in the cheapest market . Any one who does not reach that height of philosophy is behind the wisdom of the ago , and insensiblo to the sublime theory of' progress * in human affairs . Morning Post ,
