      A NOBLEMAN CONVICTED OF SMUGGLING . On Monday last , amongst the persons charged before Mr . Broderip , at the Thames Police Court , was Stephen Moore Viscount KUworth , eldest son of the Earl Monntcashel , on a charge of smuggling , or rather having unlawfully in his possession two pounds and a quarter of foreign manufactured tobacco , for which the duty had not been paid . Mr . Few , of Henrietta-street , Covent Garden , his Lordship ' s solicitor , attended with the noble defendant From the evidence adduced , it appeared that his Lordship arrived by a Rotterdam steamer , which put in at the Brunswick Pier , Blackwill , between seven and eight o " clock on Sunday morning last , where she was boarded by two custom bouse officers in waiting .

      One of the latter , on entering the cabin , observed his Lordship , ( who , at the time , was a perfect stranger to him ) stow away an empty cigar box , and this circumstance exciting his suspicion , he watched him narrowly , and on his leaving the vessel , and while on the pier , asked him if he had any cigars about him ? His Lordship replied that he had about seventy or eighty ; but the officer feeling dissatisfied with his assertion , took him back to the steamer , and , on searching him , found in his pockets two pounds and a qnarter of cigars and tobacco . On this discovery , his Lordship expressed his wilUnirness to pay the duty , whatever it might be ; but the officer ( Scanlaa ) felt it to be his duty to charge him with smuggling , and accordingly took him to th ^ polic 3 station-house at Poplar . There is Lordship gave his proper name , and the charge being taken against him , he was detained from nine o'clock until four in the everune , when he was bailed out

      by a publican at Poplar , and bis mend , both of whom volunteered their services upon being made acquainted with the charge , and the rank and station of his Lordship . When before the magistrates , and after the facts as to his apprehension had beeT deposed to by Scanlan , his Lsrdship did not deny the fact of having the cigars and tobacco upon his person , but said that he had been assured in Holland before purchasing the quantity of cigars and tobacco he had brought , as they were for bis own consumption , they would not be liable ts duty , and that it was upon this representation , and not from the slightest wish to evaue the duty , he made the purchase . His Lordship also said he did not das ; , when challenged by the officer , having cigars upon his person ; and added , thst the moment he was informed that the quantity found on him was liable to duty , he expressed his willingness to pay its amount

      Mr . Broderip observed that while it was his wish to make no distinction between parties brought before him , he was still willing to believe that his lordship had erred from the representations made to him before purchasing the articles as represented , and not from any intention to defraud the revenue . This , however , was only an extenuation , and sot a justification of the offence , as persons could not plead ignorance of the law to justify its violation . Under all the circumstances of the case , however , and being willing to believe his lordship ' s assurance that no evasion of the law was intended , he wonld only fine him in the mitigated penalty of twenty shillings . This his lordship immediately paid , and , accompanied by his solicitor , left the court
