      , had lined a piano valued at £ 23 , which the male prisoner had sent to an auction room , and had it aold for not quite half its value .

O'Brien , prosecuted ; and Mr . Prehdergast and Mr . "Wilde defended . —Mr . Clarkson , in stating the case to the jury , said he appeared for no less than five pawnbrokers and one refiner who had been sufferers on the present occasion , and who were instrumental in getting up the present indictment . —William George Attenborough , of 204 , Fleetsireet

      , pawnoroKer , stated tbat on the 2 nd August , at about half-past seven in the evening , the prisoner Henry Xorris , came into his shop and produced four salt cellars , which he gave to his shopman , who , after examining them , placed them in the plate scale , and having weighed them was about to advance £ 3 5 s . on them . Witness having some suspicion took the salt cellars in hand , and said what nave you here , and Uorris said four silver salt cellnrs , and he wanted £ 3 5 s . on them . Witness asked him to whom they belonged , and he said to a lady named Xorris , living at No . 14 , Portland-street , Oxford-street ; that the lady was an acquaintance of his , and his name was Henry Stone , and he was a whip-maker , residing at Sotting-MIL WitnoKR

      asked him what he thougfet the things were worth and he said that the lady had bought them and « iveii £ 6 for them . Witness then asked him where the lady lived , and be having again stated , told him that ne should goto her , when he became somewhat confused , and said , " nere , lend me £ 4 on these " pulling out a gold watch and chain ; but finding that witness would not let him have back the thin 4 said he would gooutand fetch his elder brother , which witness objected to , and sending for a policeman , gave him into custody . The witness had since testedthe articles , and found them to be copper , electro-plated with . white albata , or some such spurious metal ; had they been silver , that pattern would have made them worth about 6 s . an ounce ; as they were thev

      would not be worth a pawnbroker lending more than 8 s . or 9 s . on them all ; they were in every wav manufactured in a manner calculated to impose upon a person accustomed to see plate , the bottom being indented with a mark somewhat resemblin " the Hall mark of ancient date , somewhat oblite - rated ; and they bore all the appearance of an ancient article of plate , the four weighing about eleven ounces . Tho articles in question were handed in to the jury for inspection . They were massive antique circulars , and formed a salt * cellar staudin " up on three short legs or feet richly chased and en ? bossed , not very strongly electro-plated , and gilt on the inside , and in every way formed so as to deceive at a cursory glance . —In answer to the court , Mr . Aftenborough said that the prisoner came in

      just between the lights , and before the shop was fully lighted . —Xarborough , a police-constable , 3 C 9 , City police , proved the apprehension of the prisoner m Mr . Attenborough ' s shop , and stated tbat , upon searching tho prisoner he found a duplicate on him for four similar saltcellars he bad pledged a short time before at the shop of Messrs . Tomlinson and Dobie , in the Strand . —It was then proved tbat only one person of the name oOorris had lived in Portland-place , and he had never seen anything of the prisoner until he was in custody , and knew nothing of him . —Mr . Tomlinson proved the takin " iu of the goods in question , which he had advanced * os . Gd . an ounce on , they weighing eleven ounces . The prisoner came to him just as tKey were shutting

      up outside , and before the gas was all li ghted . He had pledged a brooch for 15 s . some few days before , and which he then redeemed ; it was the " imitation of the Hall mark tbat took witness off his guard , as he believed it to be true , and they never tested plate . —Daniel May , 357 City police , staled that he was on duty in plain clothes at Guildhall , when the prisoner , Ilenry Xorris , was under examination , and seeing his brother waiting outside , he went up and asked him if it was true tbat he had sent bis brother to pawn the things , and he said it was , upon which he took him into custody . He then made inquiries into the connexions of the prisoners , and on the 15 th of August , traced out the prisoner Miller , who lived at So . 19 , Titchfield-street . It was at a shop , one

      half of which was opened for the sale of cigars , and the other for articles of jewellery and plated goods , and Miller ' s nan : e was on the door , as an electroplater . Upon Miller being denied , he forced his way up stairs , and there he found him at work in a room on the first floor ; all the implements for carrying on the process of dectrotyping plate upon a wholesale scale were in the room . Witness asked him if he had ever sent the apprentice Jacobson to pawn any , and be said he had , and that he had brought him home all the money , but added tbat lie bad only sent three sets to pawn , whilst a brother of Jacobsou's had done all the business , ne did not deny his knowledge of the Xomses , or that the stamps were of his make . — Thomas Yardlcy , a

      pawnbroker in Tottenbam-court-road , said that besides the saltcellars he had taken in from Jacobson , he had been dnped by a set from George Xorris , upon which he had advanced £ 2 10 s . and in value they were not worth ten shillings . — Several other pawnbrokers were then examined , and their evidence went to establish the fact of their having been duped in a similar manner ; and it also appeared tbat when Jacobson was taken into custody it was because they thought he had stolen the goods he had offered in pledge , and Miller ' s coming forward and establishing his right to them and taking them away prevented any further inquiry , or else the fraud would have then been discovered , which was as far back as April last . Another

      transaction was then proved , in which Alfred Norris went to the shop of Mr . Jen-it , the refiner , of Barbican , and after selling some old gold and silver , pushed three of the saltcellars on to the counter , and said , you will not give me what I want for these , and naked Gs . an ounce on them , and Mr . Jen-it ' s shopman thinking them to be plate about thirty years old , and the hall mark deceiving him , at once bought them at that price . Some further evidence having been given , the jury , without any consultation , acquitted Miller , and found the two other prisoners ' Guilty . " — The foreman of the jury snid they thought Miller had been guilty of fraud , but had not acted sufficiently in concert with the others for them to convict him of conspiracy . — Judgment was then respited on the other two prisoners .

      Robbery at the Eastern Cobsties Railway . — Thomas Toyey , SO , labourer , was indicted for stealing a quantity of silk tabaret , valued at £ 13 , the property of the Eastern Counties Railway , and Samuel " Jones , 49 , Joheph Lucas , 43 , and James Thompson , 39 , the three last prisoners surrendering to take their trial , were indicted for feloniously receiving the property in question , knowing it to have been stolen . —Mr . Ballantine and Mr . Cockerell conducted the prosecution ; Mr . M'Mahon appearedfor Povey , and Messrs . Prendergast , Payne , and Metcalfe defended the other prisoners . —It appeared in evidence that on the 2 nd of June a parcel of goods , among which was the piece of tabaret in question , was despatched by the Eastern Counties

      Railway from Braintree , addressed to Messrs Warlter and Co ., Wilson-street , Finsbury . The train arrived in due course at the Shoreditch station , on Sunday morning , the 3 rd of June , and it was moved " off the mainline , and remained thereuntil the following morning , when , upon the train being unloaded , it was discovered that Messrs . Warlter's parcel had been opened , and the piece of tabaret stolen therefrom . The prisoner Povey was employed upon the railway , and therefore bad an opportunity of taking the property , but there was no distinct evidence when or how it was removed . In consequence of inquiries , however , that were made by Inspector Shackell , who is now engaged in the service of the companv , the whole of the prisoners were amwehended , and by his exertions the

      circumstancesconnected with the robbery were discovered . —Serjeant Tcakle deposed that on the 29 th of June he went along with Mr . Shackell to the shop of Messrs . Hampton and Russell , in Leicester-square , and inquired of the shopman what was tho price ot the piece of tabaret which he saw in the window . The shopman replied that it was 33 . 9 d . per yard , and he added that it was " very cheap at that price . He saw a gentleman in the shop and informed him that the tabaret had been stolen , and he then inquired how they became possessed of it , and he was informed that they had purchased it of a person named Jones . Upon receiving this information he took the prisoner Jones into custody , and inquired of him if he had sold any tabaret lately in Leicester-square , and he replied that he had , but said he had forgotten the price ae received for it .

Ballantino remarked that his conduct had been most improper , and was well deserving the censure cast upon it by the court — The Recorder said that , in this instance , there appeared to be very little distinction between the case of Jone 3 and that of the witness Hampton . —Mr Hampton declared he had given the full value of the article —The Recorder said he had no business to have bought it at all , under the circumstances . — lira being the case for the prosecution , Mr . Metcalf submitted tbat there was nothing to go to the jury against Lucas , for whom he appeared . — The Recorder

      said that the case was certainly in a legal point of view very slight against the prisoner and he at the same time observed that although a great deal of pains had evidently been taken to get up the prosecution , he was rather surprised that all the intermediate parties should have been placed at the bar , and that the person who eventually purchased the property should be made a witness . — Mr . Ballantine had no hesitation in saying that if he nad been consulted originally he should have advised a different course , and he abould certainly have directed the indicting of the person in Leicestersquare , and should have asked a jury to say whether the purchasing of property at such a totally inadequate price was not evidence of a sruiltv knowledge

      on the part otthe purchaser that the article nad been stolen . —Mr . Prendergast , Mr . M'Mahon , and Mr . Payne , then addressed the jury for their several clients . —The Recorder then summed up , and tho jury , after deliberating a short time in the box , expressed a wish to retire . They were absent nearly an hour , and on tbeir return into court they » ave a verdict of " Guilty" against Povey , and acquitted all the other prisoners . The jury at the same time expressed their opinion that there had been a great want of prudence on the part of the witness Hampton in purchasing the property . —The Recorder said he quite agreed in the opinion expressed by the jury , and it really was a fearful thins for the

      public that persons keeping shops and in a respectable position should give such facilities for the disposal of stolen property . —Mr . Hampton begged to be allowed again to state that the article was damaged , and lie considered he bad given the full value for it when he paid fiftceiipence a yard . — The Recorder ( with warmth ) : Then why did you ask 3 s . 9 d . for the same article , and represent it as very cheap ? The more you stir in tie matter , in the more unfavourable light your conduct appears . You will not have your expenses , and I recommend you to consider it good advice not to be connected with such a transaction again , and be more prudent in future . —The prisoner Povey was then sentenced to be transported for seven years .

      The Satirist Xewspapeu . —Martin Hansell , who was convicted on Monday of misdemeanour , in having attempted to extort money by undcrtakin " not to publish lib e llous matter concerning a gentlc - man named Bevan , in the Satirist newspaper , was brought up for judgment . It was intimated to the court , prior to sentence being pronounced , that the prisoner was in a dangerous state from consumption , and that a long confinement would in all probability prove fatal . The Recorder , in passing sentence , said , that the defendant had been convicted of the offence of endeavouring to extort money , for refraining to publish scandalous matter in the newspaper of winch he -was the proprietor , and upon a careful consideration of all the fticts , he felt bound to say , that he entirely agreed in the verdict that

      bad been pronounced by the jury , He found upon inquiry , that the woman Milis , who was included in the indictment with him , and who bad no doubt been the instrument of putting him forward , had been sentenced to six months' imprisonment ; and taking into consideration his superior position in life , and bis superiority in point of education over that person , he did not see how it was possible to pass upon him a more lenient sentence than the one she bad received . He then ordered the defendant to be imprisoned for six months , and at , the same time observed , lhat he bad no doubt he would receive every medical attention which his condition required , and that the Secretary of State would also interfere if the state of his health , resulting from confinement , should render such a step

      necessary . RoniiEnv . —Thomas Langston , 33 , a smith , John Low , 18 , and Charles Low , 22 , also smiths , were indicted for stealing a teapot , a spade , 120 keys , a quantity of iron , and articles of ironmongery * the property of Arthur Williams , their master . —Mr . Clarkson prosecuted , and Mr . Ribton and Mr . Cockle severally appeared for the prisoners . — Although the prisoners were separately tried upon different indictments , the whole of the case arose out of one transaction , which was this . The prosecutor , an ironmonger , carrying on businessat Hammersmith , in the early part of the present year took

      the business , which is a very extensive one , of a Mr . Wright , a great number of whose previous servants be continued in his employment , but in the middle of July , finding that he was being robbed , he gave information to the police , when , upon searching the various places of residence in the occupation' of the prisoners , a quantity of his property was found , the possession of which they could not give any satisfactory account of . The jury found them " Guilty , " and having boon strongly recommended to mercy , they were sentenced , Langston to four months ' , and the two Lows to throe months' imprisonment and hard labour .

      A few days ago , a mother and daughter , named Prutzkener , were executed at Marienweder , in Prussia , for the murder of their husband and father . In February , 1818 , at daybreak , four gendarmes on their way from Berlin saw the two women kneeling as if in prayer at Calvary , near the village of Tullioh , with a large box between them , covered with a blanket . The officers , conceiving some suspicions , went to the women , and asked what they were about . They seemed too terrified to reply , and accordingly the officers opened the box , and to their surprise found in it the corpse of a man dreadfully mutilated . The two women were arrested , and after an investigation had been commenced , they admitted that the deceased was the husband of one , and

      father of the other of them ; and that they had murdered him , the mother , to be enabled to marry a farm labourer , with whom she was in love , tho daughter to escape from what she called a hateful tyranny . This murder , they said , they effected when the man was drunk , by pouting boiling water into the ears and on the face , and by afterwards outting and slashing tho body . The sentence on them was , that they should be crushed on the wheel , beginning at the feet ; but the King commuted this into simple decapitation . —Galignani .

      On Tuesday , at nn inquest held before Mr . Bedford , in the Millbank Prison , upon the body of a convict who had died of fever . The foreman of the jury inquired if there were any symptoms of the mitigation of Asiatic clolcra in tho prison ? Mr . Forstor , clerk to the prison , said ho was fearful there was not . A convict was then ( lying , and one had been recently attacked with the disease ; while they had now in gaol only 307 males , and 136 females . At a recent inquest before Mr . Payne , it was stated that in his district there had not been a single inquest in a prison on a person who had died

      of astatic cholera , and Ins district comprised the following establishments : — Newgate , Giltspurstyeet Compter , the Bridewell , Bridge-street , Blackfriars ( in the neighbourhood of which so many deaths had taken place ) , Whitecross-strcet Debtors ' Prison , and the Queen ' s Bench Prison . Mvxchestkh . —Since Friday last there have been ten cases of cholera in the township of Manchester , five of which have proved fatal . In Salford there have been three fatal cases of cholera and two of diarrhoea during the same period ; and in tho outtownship of Choi-Ion there have been fiv <> fiitnl

      cases . Upon the whole , thcdiscaso does not appear to have abated , nov yet has it increased to any great extent . Bristol , Tuesday . —The disease still , fortunately , presents more favourable returns , the new cases and deaths being fewer than they wcro . The return for Bedniinster is equally favourable . The health of the entire parish isako stated to be decidedly improved , and very satisfactory . Gases op Cholera at hie Centkai Criminal Couiit . —Two cases of this prevailing epidemic , one of which has alread y terminated in the decease of the party attacked , have occurred to persons while attending the court on business . The first was that of a respectable tradesman , who had attended the court

      tor the purpose of speaking to the character of the prisoner charged with stealing , and receiving a quantity of bonnet shapes from a manufacturer at Hoxton , the report of which has already appeared . It seems , that as he was standing at the top of thestal'S leading to the New Third Court , waiting to be called upon he complained of feeling pains in the stomach , and cramp , ami very rapidly getting worse , aid was procured , and it being ascertained that he was suffering from Asiatic cholera in its worst form , he was immediately placed in a cab and removed to the hospital , where he expired in a few hours . The second case occurred yesterday morning to ono of the doorkeepers of the New Court , who , whilst atteudingto his duties during the sittings of the judge , was seized with all the premonitory svmntoms in the

      most aggravated form . Immediately upon beimg taken , he was removed below to the grand jury room , and medical assistance called , and everything that skill could suggest was resorted to , but with little beneficial result , and from the violence of the attach , and from the fact of his being a somewhat elderly mant but very faint hopes was entertained of his recovery . During the whole of the session more than ordinary precautions have been taken to taep a current ot pure air continually passing through the courts , -which , coupled with other sanitary operations , bad the desired effect of destroying all the nauseous miasma , which of necessity would arise where so many human beings—a greater portion of whom are of the lowest class-were so crowded together , and it is in all probability owing to the excellent arrangements that more cases have not arisen .

S . ) Advertiser . Camaiv ilKXRicnsos . -It is generally known that Captain llenrichson , the husband of the late Mi-3 . llenrichson , is in the employ of Messrs . James Aikon and Son ; and at the time of the committal ot the atrocious act which rendered him a widower , childless , and homeless , he was on a vovaee , as master ofthe Duncan , to tho East Indies . Many idle rumours are afloat respecting him , and as lo the probable time of his arrival here . Upon inquiry

      in a quarter from which the information may be relied on , we loam that Captain llenrichson sailed from Calcutta on the 18 th of April lust , and that his arrival here is not expected until the end of the present month . Arrangements have been made , upon the Duncan entering the river , to communicate to Captain llenrichson that he must be prepared to expect , upon his arrival , to hear domestic news of a painfully distressing nature , not , however , stating any of the circumstances relative to the late tragedy . With this object the llev . Wm . Pollock , of whose congregation , we believe , Capt . llenrichson and his late lady were members , wvoto a letter , in which religions consolation suitable to the occasion

      was contained . Of this letter twelve copies wove made , which were given to as many pilots , to be handed , by whoever shall board the Duncan , to Capt . llenrichson . From the captain of a vessel which arrived at this port thc other day , and who , on Ins way , put in at St . Helena , we lcai-n that the Liverpool papers had conveyed the whole of tho particulars of the murder to that island , and that the atrocities of it wci-o tho topic of general conversation . At the time this captain left there nothing had been heard of the Duncan ; but she will in all likelihood call there , and there doubtlessly will Capt . lleni-iehson learn the sad tidings which so deeply affect himself . —Liverpool Journal .

It is not however generally known that one-fifth ofthe bulk ofthe blood is continually

Want of energy , wmt of resolution , loss of memory , 4 c , are the consequences . Many medicines have been cried up as possessing the power of purifying the blood , but they have miserably failed .
