He and his family had not been known is Birmingham for more than two years , and his rise was , to all acquainted with the trade of the town , somewhat wonderful . His fate has proved disastrous to those who have been duped by his knaveries . At length , in September last , the bubble burst , and Dauacey then residmg with his father ( who , a few months before , retired from the business ) was declared a bankrupt ; and his debts for iron and upon bills ( some of a very
questionable character ) found , upon examination , to amount to between £ 15 , 100 and £ 20 , 009 . So soon as prompt steps were taken to bring him to account , Dauncey and the whole of his family Quitted Birmingham . Mr . Ssperintendeut Stephens left Birmingham on March the 2 d , in pursuit of the youth , and after visiting various towns on the continent ftund him at Coxhaven , participating one evening in the festivities of a ball . The youth was called out of the room , taken into custody , and brought over to Birmingham , where on Wednesday lust , he was committed for trial , on a charge of not surrendering himself in the . time specified bylaw after becoming a bankrupt .

A book-case and two drawers were broken open in the dining-room ; two bottles of wine and brandy wero taken from the cellaret in the library ; there were found in the drawing-room , and also in the library-room , lucifer
matches ; went and entered the house . Saw footmarks from the windows which had be ^ jr opened across the road ; he supposed , from the 'footsteps , that about five people had been there . Mr . Road , the constable , afterwards fitted a boot to entv of the footmarks ; it corresponded . There was a nail in the centre of each h « el ; had gone to bod a little af ler t « a o ' clock , the night before . All vra& fast then . Saw on the Monday after one of the seals . The witness was cross-examined at some length by Mr . Cottinoiiam , who defended Gr . ffiu , with the purpose of showing that m the confusion consequent upon the burglary some of tho servants mi ^ ht have taken tne Bcalu , & . o . ; but nothing tending to confirm sueh an idea waa elicited .
Several of Mr . Wonnald's servants were called , who deposed that Ibbetscn had been about the house and premises on the day before thorobboiy , inquiring for Mr . Wormald . William Hal « B and James Rochford , watchmen , on duty at the time , apprehended Ibbetson , near Headingley , oa the morning of the roboery , about hili-pajt four o ' clock ; ho was searched but no property was found on him . Edward Koiid , chief constable , of Leeds , deposed , that m cousequenco of information , from Mr . Woraald , he went to Cookridgo Hall on the morning after the robbery . The prisoner , Ibbetson , waa then iu custody . He compared ihe prisoner ' s boots with some of tha foot marks outride Mr . W . ' s house , and found them to correspond exactly .

John Jackson , glass-blower , of Hunslet , was next called , and stated that in November last , ho was committed to York Castle for poaching . The prisoner Ibbotson came there about a week afterwards , and about throo or four weens after that , he made a statement to him . The witness then proceeded to give a long and very circumstantial detail of the whole robbery as stated by Ibbetson to hare been committed by himself and others . In the midst of this story , ibbotson made an application to the Court to withdraw his plea of Not Guilty , and plead Guilty , saying that his Attorney ( meaning we suppose his Counsel ) had thrown him overboard , and that it was uselesa to proceed with the case . The other two men were innocent . The Jud . be refused to allow the ploa to be withdrawn aud ordered the case to go on , The iritnesd waa Tory severely cross-examined by Mr . CornncHAU .

November last , Uawkrodger shewed him the seal , and stated that it was the property of Matthew Straker , and was for sale .
Mr . Cottingham , on behalf of Jbbetson , addressed the Jury in defence . They would dismiss from their minds any prejudice arising from the statement made by tho prisoner of his wibh to plead guilty . They would judge from the evidence . Ho then went through the evidence against Ibbetsou in detail . jSir Gregory Lkwijt , oa behalf of Griffin , was most bitterly severe on the witness Lawson , and on tho Loeds Police , for the system of entrapping prisoners , by obtaining their confidence in the way of espionage . The Learned Junes summed up with great minuteness , and spoke at great length on tho several points of the evidence as against each of the prisoners separately . The Jury couaultcd for some minutes , aiuLthen returned a verdict of Guilty against ibbotson , and Not Guilty against tho other two .
BURGLARY . Edutard Townend , William Gawkrodger ( the prisoners in tht ) lust case ) , &n < XChartes WtLon , were then put to the bar , charged with a burglary at the house of Aniaziah Empdon , Esq ., of tiuvely , near K caresborough , on the 23 rd of December last . Messrs . Cotiinguam and JBlanshaud appeared for the prosecution . Tno prisoners wero undefended . Mr . Cottinohau opened the case , and called Thomas Rushby , butler to Mr . Etnpson , who fastened the windows of the diuing-room about five o ' clock on the night in question . He fastened the
front door . A large silver uugar-busin , mustard-pot , salt-cellar , two large spoons , two small forks , one tea-spoon , a salt-spoon , and mustard-spoon were left on the dining-room table , on a tray . la tho morning , he found the bolts of the front door drawn , and the keys takun away . The door was shut back : not locked . The witness then proceeded to detail tho articles of missing property , all the plate previously mcmio . ed , and tome other articles , lie found two chisels on the tray whence the plate bad been tuken . There were marks on tho window aud the shutter of the dining-room , such as Would be ma «! e by those chisels .
Charles Wood , an accomplice , was next called . Has known Gawkrodger along time . Never knew Wilson till the nighc of the robbery . Has kndwn Townend two or three years . Tho witness then proceeded , in answer to questions from counsel , to give a long and circumstantial account of the burglary , as committed by himself and the three prisonersy f the bringing away ot the property , and hiding of it in Harewood Park—of his returning to fetch it on the following day , and selling it to one Harris , a general dealer , hring in Templar-street , by whom information being given to Read , he was taken into custody . His testimony was confirmed in many important points by other witnesses , and the Jury found all the prisoners Guilty .
Sentences . —John Straker , John Thomas , Henry Greenwood , John Griffin , William Ibbetson , Edward Townend , William Gawlsrodger , and Charles Wilson , all of them very young men , ( Griffiu only 17 years of age , ) and all having been convicted of burglary , were placed at the bar to receive judgment . On the usual question beiug put , Thomas stated that he had a witness now in attendance , who could prove bis innocence of the crime with which he was charged , and who was most anxious to give his testimony . The witness was in attendance yesterday , but was hurried out of Court , and prevented from returning . He prayed , therefore , that this witness might now be examined . This could not be done . The prisoner holding a paper in his hand , the Learned Judge requested it might be handed to him . It was so . but no
reference was made to its contents . The Judge addressed the prisoners in a short and very severe speech , iu which , he stated that the prisoners evidently constituted part , if not the whole , of a regularly organised gang of depredators , by whom the neighbourhood of Leeds had been long infeated . It had seldom been his lot , in the course of his judicial { experience , to find burglaries more deliberately planned , and determinedly executed , than those of which they had been convicted ; nor had he Been many cases in which the proofs of guilt were more conclusive . It was plain that they had been leading dissolute and abandoned lives , and he should take care that for a very long portion of their remaining lives thoy should work hard - and fare ill . His Lordship then proceeded to sentence them to be respectively transported beyond the seas for the term of fifteen yeara .

Between eight * nd nine wi tuess went out to the butcher ' s , Uaving the prisoner v a bed , and the money safe in the cupboard , which wa » iooked . On returning home in about three quarters o / an hour , she found that he was gone ; and , feeling apprehensive , went straight to the cuoboard . foimt , her money was gone ,

Whitf , of the Traveller's Inn , Westgaie , Rotherham , -pnrfed thafc on tha 9 th of January , the prisoner and - two other men came to White's bouse in Rotherham , £ nd the prisoner seat them with a parcel to Sheffield '; the prisoner then changed his stockings in the bar , and put a suit of new clothes on over his old oney .

The prisoner said he had no money but a few shillings . Henry Womack corroborated the last witness as to the apprehension and searching the prisoner . The prisoner denied that he had beeu & . t Hoyland , or knew such a place . He refused to be ¦¦ eearoheci till Womack produced his staff .

The Jury found the prisoner Guilty , and the Learned Judge said he was not sure he was doing right in not sentencing the prisoner to the severest punishment provided by tho law . It was a great aggravation that he had gone to the house of a relative , where he was sure to be kindly treated , with the preconcerted design of robbing them of all they had . —Two years' imprisonment .
HORSE STEALING . Robert Henderson and Jeremiah Barlow were charged with stealing a black mare , the property of Francis Pawson . Mr . Baines and Mr . Wortlet for the prosecution , and Mr . Pashlet for the defence . The first witness was Francis Pawson , who stated he went to Rutherham December fair with a black mare to sell , and there he saw Henderson with a bay horse , which Barlow appeared to be trying to buy , but Henderson said he wtuld not take £ 12 for
it . Henderson looked at Pawson s mare , wmch he not him to walk outside of the fair , and Barlow tapped Pawson ou the shoulder , and said if he would swap the mare , for which ho asked £ ll , for the horse , he would ^ ive him £ 12 fur the horse . After some bargaining with Henderson , they did swap , and Pawson went towards Barlow to get the £ 12 lor the horse , but several persons came between them and stopped him while the prisoners made off as fast as they could with the mare . Pawson gave information to Bland , and a few hours after he saw the prisoners in custody .
Cross examined by Mr . Pashlet—Before the prisoners were taken into custody , 1 sold the horse for 25 d . 6 < L , wiiich I thought more than it was worth . I have had a little conversation with Barlow , who has been on bail . I did not eay 1 would have done nothing if the constable had not forced me . I said to his father that if they would give back the mare , and pay the oxpences , 1 would not go on with it . Re-examined—I would not set a price on the hor ^ e till after I had looked after the men . It waa one of the four men who stopped that urged me till he sold him the bay horse for 253 . 6 d . I had not examined Henderson ' s horse till after we had swapped . George Oobson , fishmonger , of Rotherham , was in tho lair , and sa < v Henderson lead a bay horse
and Barlow just by him , and Barlow said , "Will you take £ 5 for the the horse , " which Henderson refused . Dobuon afterwards saw Henderson leading a black mare , at a trot , down the fair , and Barlow hit her behind to urge her on . He saw them again in the afternoon , in custody , when one of them had got a macintosh on , and the other a smocktrock . In the morning they were dressed as now . Robert Marshall , beerhouse-keeper , of Rotherham , proved that on tho afternoon of tha fair , the prisoners came to his house with a black maro , which they said might remain till they carno for . They drank together . Cross-examined—The mare remained from Tuesday to Thursday , when Pawsou got her again . My house is in a public street , and waa full of company .
Pigeon , policeman , of riotherham , proved that he saw the prisoners going together up and down the fair durirjg the day . John Bland , in consequence of the information of Paivson , sought the prisoners , whom he at last apprehended in the fair . Ho had seen them in the early part or' the day with four or five others . In the afternoon the dresses they had worn in the morning were covered by a macintosh and a smockfrock . Mr . Pashlet , for Barlow , submitted there was no felony , because there was no trespass , which was involved in it . He argued that Pawson voluntarily parted with the mare , and though there might have been fraud , that was not the charge in this indictmont . He cited several cases in support of the objection . Mr . Baines replied that there was no evidence for
the Jury that the prosecutor did not mean fully to part with his mare , till he had not only received the horse , but alao the £ 12 for the horse . If it had been a mure exehango and no more , then his Learned Friend was right , and the case waa a fraud . The subdequeut sao of the horse was only of value as bearing upon the intention of the prosecutor in tho transaction , which was" ^ the real question for the Jury . The preoise moment of the larceny was , whon the prisoner began to move off with tho mare without the payment of the £ 12 . In support of this argument , Mr . Baines adduced several cases , and urged it was for the Jury to say whether they thought the prisoners meant bona fide to purchase the mare , and whether the inteution of the prosecutor was not to part with his horse till the transaction was complete .
Mr . Wortley argued that this was a joint bargam , and the delivery of the mare was conditional . _ Mr . Pvsshlet argued that the " swap " . with Henderaon mudt be complete before the sale to Barlow . His Lordship was of opinion that the man meant to part with his mare , though he had been defrauded as to the expectation that induced him to do so . If the Jury agreed with this , u was a gross fraud , but not a felony , and they must therefore acquit thw prisoners . The Jury found the prisoners Not Guilty . Mr . Raines applied to have them detained that they might be indicted for fraud , but His Lordship declined to make any order in th « matter . Another indictment was then preferred .
