MIASTLBOROUG5t-5TItET.--MR. PAUXTL-EPoY..-ince the first public examhination of Mlr. Fauntleroy at this office, a fortnighit age, the utmost anxiety has prevailed in the public mind, atnd con- sitant (taily applications have been made to know on whiat day the next investigation ofhis case was to take place. On tleclay of lisaformner examination he was nominally remanded to the followiing Saturday, %iha perfcct undlerstanding, however, among all the parties, that it was not intended to bring himn up again uponi that day; but, an.. other week hiaving elapsed, it was pretty confidently expected that this would be the tiay for his second examnination. To all inquiries madeupo thesubect o oher nswr was given, nor indeed could thee b as oher thn hatno aywasfixd,because, we have whos frend, weareassred,didnotexpect it to tk lc ni ever, weigigwith the Magistrate, and upntencay canisiu.. nicatn wit the Bankh of England uothsbjc,it was on Thursdlay determined that the prisoner shudb r ugtip yester- day for a second examination of his eae. Sorme sppEcat.iona, we understand, wvere miade on the part of the prlisoner, who did not himself wish the examination so suddenly, to alte this decenWasltion ; but they were not. auccessful., andl accord- ingly Plank, the chief officer of thnis establislinent, proceeded to the House of Correction, Coldbuth-fields, where the prisoner was confined, accompanied by Wescott and Clements, two other officers. They arrived at the prison at lhalf-past 101 o'clock, and imamediatelly received chiarge of the prisoner from the (Governor, Mr. Vickerv, and he was conveyed by those officers in a hackney..roaci -to tuec office. in the stame unres'trained and unshackled irtianner that he has been from the moment of' His apprehension. Plank amried with the prisioner back to the office at about one o'clock, and placed M5r. Fauintlerny under tile charge of Clements and Weacott, in the strong roomi, until the hour of examiinationL shouldl arrive. In conisequenice of its not beinig at all generally known t1tat this examination would takce place, there were very few persons in atten- dancoe during the rmorning, indeed, none but those who appeared upon other business, until one o'clock ; when Alr. Hums, Mir. Good- chIld MAr. Graham, anid one or two other gentlemen, entered, and took their seats in the private room, from which the three former neyer mnoved durin.-, thie whole proceedings, except when called into the public office to give and sign their depositions. In a short time after, the Governor anid Dephtty.Governor, and several other Direc- tors, of the Bank of England arrived, and took their stations. at tile rear of the miagistrates' chair ; and besides these there w ere about two dozen other geaitlemnen, either friends of the magistrates, or of somi-e of the parties presient. In the private room there were also two ladiesi observable. from whose state of agitation and apparent anguish, it was anot difficult to, conclude that thecy bore some intense interest in the procedings about to take place. They, wexe under the care of A gentleman, wlho seemed to use his best endeavours to sooth their aLnguish. Air. BaODERsCsY, the barrister, who, with MVr. Forbes, the so- licitor, anid Air. Butler, the chief clerkc of Mir. Hzrmer (who c-ould not himiself attend),made their appearance, on behialf of the prisoner, about hialf'past one ;, and in a few minutes after Idr. Freshfield was in attendance-, oti the piart of the B3ank of England. At precisely within a quarter to two o'cloc'k, tie Magistrates, Sir G. FAitANA-T, DIr. CONiANT, and Mir. DYER~, havin g taken theit seats upon the bench, Plank was dlirected to produce his priso-ner; but Mlr. Butler said, that as Air. ilanner, wvho had heard the formey examination, was not present, perhiaps the mag-istrates would allow Mir. Broderick tq look over the depositions for a few minutes in the private room. Whs wisli was seceded- to, and the clerk of the office took the depositions into the private roomr for that purpose. In a very short tirae Mlr. Broderick returned, andI a finial order wag now given to Pfank to bring in Mfr. Fauntleroy, and within five minutes to two o'clock the prisoner wasi introduced as before, leaning on the arms of Plank and another officer. The prisoner entered, not, as on the first occasion, with a hurried step and agitated manner, but wvalked firmly into the office, and with. out being directed thereto, inistantly took his istation, leaning, as at the former time, against and outside the bar, within wvhichi prisoners are usually placed, but which now coatained some of the witnesses9 to be examined. Air. Fsauntleroy was dtre-saed precisely as on the former examination-blue coat, blue trousers, and white waistcoat; but nowv wore a black handkerchief round hiis neca, whaereas, at the firstexamnatin, h wor a wite ne,Fie leanied with hiis left sidte aganstth ba, hs eftelow n i, nd ishead resting on his hand. Hiarghe rm e plced eroa hi brest,hold!n lis liat in that hand an ou ofthi peitin h neer ncemoved or stirred during the hol oftheexanaton.Hiscoutenance betrayed a miuct more settled state of mind than when w last saw hiim : lie seemee, in good health, not at all agitated, andt altmost, in point of appear. ance, indiff'erent to the whole proceeding, for the most part. lie. however, occasionally heaved a deep sigfi. The depositions, which were already prepa-red, were nowv handed to the Clerk to be read : and before conmmencing, Mir. Fresaifield, addressing the magistrate, said, that on thxe former examninatiool there wasonecas, tat f awarantof ttoney for 10,0001., completed on he ar oftheprsectio; nd heylid also gone, in part into the videce espetingthre oter wrrats of attorniey I"or othier sums-amel, on for46,001.,one or 1,000., and one for 5,3001.; and h woud nowuroced tocompete tis eidenc-e iii their cases George-Edward Oraham, late par(ner with the prisoner in the bank of Alarsh and Co., wau then sworit, and the following deposition read over to him:-"1 That on tlie 0th of October, 1820,he received from the prisoner, Htenry Fauniteroy, the power of attornev now produced for 46,0001. 3 per Cent Annuities, with directions'to sell the same, which he accordingly did on the -2d of November, 1820; and the signature of G. E. Graham to tile warrant of attorsecy, as having so sold the samne, was signed." This deposition, Mlr. Ura- hiam said, was true. The deposition of Jamies Tyson was next read, anid went to 3ay, "that the signatuire of this depoxtent, sigrned as an attesting witness to ttile names of Hfenry Fauaitleroy and J. D. Hunie, ox this poer of attoney wastheproper signature of' tis tdeponent, and tat h did so'witness the said Henry Fauntlemoy subscribe hiis name to this document, but that the words "1Clerks ii the banking.house of Mlarsh, andI Co," also witnesstes to the signature of J1.

Homne," are in the proper hand.writingof the prisoner, and deponient further saith, that hie never didl witness the signlature of J. D. flume to any instrument whatever." This witness was swvorn, and signed lila deposition. Joseph Golightly, being sworn, deposed, that he, as well as thec last deponent, was a clcrk'in dlie baitkiigh.iotvqc of Marsh and Co. that lie had examined the power of attorney now produiced, anzd that the signature "1 Jost. f?oligzlitly," attache-d thiereto, as an attesting witness to the name of Henry Fauntleroy, is the true and proper signature of thils deponeiit, antii thiat he did so witness the signature ot the said Henry Fauntleroy I buit thiat ttile words I Clerks to MeIssrsi.

John Goodeliild, surgeon, of the Blin-Trec-road, Rcgent's-park, deposed, " that in the maonth of' May, 1818, this dtepionent, together with J. D. flutme, of Pinner's-park-, in the county of Kent, and Henry Fauntleroy, of Bemners-street, banker, were appointed truis- tees to the suim of 48,0001. 3 pe Cnt.

Home and Henry Fauntleroy were, James Tyson and WVilliani Price, clerksi in thie iasikitig-house; andl these depositionis went, as on the former occasions, to say that, as regarded the siignature of Mlr. Fauxntlerey, their attestaion was genuiine, but f'alse as to that of Air. litmes, whom thley never saw subscribe to any docuinsent. Mr. G~ooslchild again deposed as to the signature "1John Good- child," to this warrant of attorney, not being in his hand-writing. Another power of attorney was p reduced for the suns of 5,30D1. 3 per Cent.

Grahami,when giving his depositioii as to the sale of the stock under this last wvar.. arat of attorney, said, that he had noow to correct birn6elf as to the fact of fisis aving received this powver of.- attorney, as stated in the derosition, att the bikiskng-house, in Barn ers-street, from Mlfr. Faunt.. leroy. lie could not positively say whether he rreteived the power of attorney from Alr. Fauntleroy, or fromo his broker in the city by, the diretionis of Mr. Fauntleroy, but he was sure that one or othser was the ease; if fromi Mr. Fauntieroy himtself 1hecertalhily did receive it at the banking-tiouse; -and if fromn a broiet, it Must be from either Mfr.

James Tyson, the clerk, was again called, andl aked to look at a request to act, writteni on the beck,of this powter of~ attorney : it ran thu,:- 11We shall feet obliged by the within being aeted upon to-day; as the money is warned for a particular purpoe, 'yesterdav being a holydav.

Robson, a rta.. tioner, residing in Tower-street, at thiree o'~clock in, the morning,. witk inatent to rotb the house. Alir. Rtobsons said, there was a hulk in which a tailor worked, whichi was part of his premises, anid that thie prisoner and hisr compzniozn first broke into the hulk, aned theni proceededl to break down the par- tition between the bulk and the shop, in whiceh there was consider-. able property of value. He had no doubt of the gang to which the prisoner belonged being a most desperate one, in gin* from the ap-. paratus withi which the pri'soner was prep2red to put his object into, execution, and withi which fatal violence mighit easily be committed. Upwards of 100 picklock-kevs were produced. There were also, brought into the justice-room a crowbar, several chisels, a dark.. lantrn,witha pece f wx-cadleiiiit a double-.edged knif'e, as shap a a azo, ad hatmos efectveof all instruments used in A wachmn sated tht a itewaspasingby 5!r.

Witness assisted the soldier in, tatking the prisoner, who wvas the mian he saw struggling with the 8oldier, to cthe watch- hiouse. Upon examination of tile bulk, it was found that the pserti.. tioti, which was miade of wood rnd iroii-.sork, hiad been brok-en through, and thiat an apeerture to thec shop had been tiade. Mlr. HuNsp~itsgis, for the prisoner, asked whether any pattof the hiouse was so broken into as to admuit an ctitry ? The watchman said, that the aperture was nearly large enouglh so adlmits b and. The iron li,,ing within had beent broken, and an en- trance no doubt would have been effec-ted in a very short time, had not the robbers; been interrupted in the rnidst-of their labour, In the hulk were strewed about the pickloek keys, andi the seyeral other housebreaking imyplemients. Williami Alason. a so-ldier, deposed, that as he was passing altong he was alarmied bythe cry of watcl," and saw the prisoner and an.. otlier person rushi from the hull..

He applied the chisel to various marks on t'he partition between the shop and the buil, and prereived that there was an exact corresponidence between those niiarks and the irstruments. Air. Robson's se-rvant deposed, that lie slept in the shop for the seciaty ofthe 'homkse- He bad gone to bed at hiue uual hioot, but w.as' awknd by a noise which appeared to be very near. The noise ceased for a short timie, and upon hearing it repeated, he jumnped up, ranx and opened the door, anat railed the watch. The tailor who works in the bulk in the day-time dleposedi, that he locked the built door at half-past fouir on Thursday- evnt UJpoll going to it the next niorniing, he f'ound that it had been brokea open.

Alr. Robson said the prisoner, it was evident, had for some time concerted the plan of breaking into the house, having beet ubserveg about the premises under circutustances of the greatest SusDicion. The LORD DlAyoon asked whether he could be ideatise Us lhay- ing appeared on any former occasion on tbe remises? Dir.

Ir -Smith, tfre prosecutor, being called, the Alderman, addressing bim, sad, 1' y a letter I have reccived fromn you,! I find yen would 'rather 11ot pursue this prosecu tion. -%ir. 3'smith said, under all the circumstancei of the cae, he did laOt 5.'itentl to proced any further. Mr. Aldermani Woon.-Then I take It for granted that on in- 'lutiry you think that you would rot be able to mlake out a sufficient case to so before a jury. Mlr. Smith said he was notq nie sure of thiat. Mir. Alderosan Woo)...`..Why, then, do YOU not proceed ? You seemed q u ite anxicous~ yestyerda -to prosecute, and appeared to thiink that I did not enter int you viewv of the bu-siness. If you hiave evidence to produce, we are not In the habit here of letting Prisoners ,ecape eaxily a-gainsit whom a cae of felony can he establishedl. Vhat are your ieasons fur now declining the prosecution?I Alr. Soutth sad the prisoner had cnnrtfsed his contrition, and pro. mi,ied to amiend his conduct for the future. This contritiox oni the parn of the prisoner not having been ex- pressed to Mlr. Smith himsRelf personally, but througlh his nephew, .01r. Josiah Smith, the Alderman desired the latter to stand forw'ard. Mlr. Ald~Pnan'WOOD.-It didi appear to me yesterday that the f'acs YOU 'were about to -swear to ivere such as requiredl much consi- sfrr atioln, and it was almost impossible thlat you coulel swear pesi- 'tvl otes withiout a very, minutte exainination to ascertainh re%act number of those articles inanmifactured fromn youir stock-book, the precise quantity that YOU still have in yotur posseassion, and a careful Investigation of your book of sales. Have you macie such an exatnination)? WlTttlesto.-.No, I have not, Sir. Air. Smith thiinkcs thiat the pri- soner has become sensible of his misconduct; h e has so expressed himsaelf to mne and to hits own friends; anid under these circuim. stances;, my uincle thinks that the punishment he has ailready unider- gone is smtifficient to make suich an impresion upon him as will in- tluence his conduct for the futulre. The Alderman then addresed the prisoner at some length upon his folly atnd misconduct, and upon his profe-ssing himnsclf fully sen- ,.ible of his impprppriety, antl his contrition for what had already oc- curred, the Aidierman permnitted him to be discharged. Ma'r. Aldermnan WOOD then, taking up the Mlorninig Ch.'ronicle of yesterday, said-"1 I1 think it necessary just to notice the obser- vatne?1s of some reporters or writers in the newspapers, with respect to) thie present case-not that thev fin(I any fault with me, but thtat I Tamquite surprised that they shaild have appeared, Thieyecannot, LI ami aure, have been written by any one that is a lawyer. It is sel- dom that I have time to read the papen; and I have not red a. esingle report from the Guilfihall offi-e during thle whole of thie week before; but my, a'ttention has been dlirected to the following remarks which have appeared this mornjing." Mlr. Aldermnan Wood now read tromi the leading article in the Mlorning C11ronicke the f'ollowing pas- -age:-` Now in this cae, in whicht the worthy Alderman was not r,atisfied with the evidence, wlhy was not the prisoner aisked, whether or not he took the card-case? The probability is, that he would have acknowledged his gu-ilt. What better evidence -Lan there be of guilt than thle confes%ion of the criminal ?" 'Who could have sent sucht an ari'rcle to the press I cannot conceive. It could not, I should think, have been written by the edlitor, and I tshould hardl supj)ose thec writer to be an Enghlimainn. This I can atssure hi t,r . M rver findl me to be the parson to drag a confes- sion Oet Of an1y Pl'noner. We are forced occasionally to have re- cors o etn, means for gaining informnation, but confessions snust aiwaya, be the voluntary act of' the prisoner. If' the writer of' thlis article had been a native of France, I should not have been sur- Prised; but though there may be some timings in the laws of France -OTU hy of our imitation, I hope the extorting of confessions from eiso7nerwitllneve becintroieuced into the criminal jurisprudence of ihi enultry. I have been- in France, and when there, was permit- ted to be present at some criminal examinations, and I felt quite dis- guste at the questions put to prisoners, and the manner in which answers were extorted, and confessions draggedI from them, crimi- oarinl themnselves Mir. Smith here stepped forward, and assured. the Alderman that lie had no knowledge of the article he had alludied to till he saw it in the paper that morning, and disclaimed having in any wvay suggested the questioning of the prisoner. Mr. Alderman WooD-... do not suppose you had any knowledge o.' it. It is not likely ; prosecutors are generally moat unwilling to prmceed agzainst ofFendlers, and in alinost every case desirous of' qhow. jug everY lenlity towards prisoners; indeed,. generally, they are too lenient - but whoever wrote it, I shiould think, was no Englishmani. flOW.SRttET.-Mr. Austin, a livery-stable-keeper, in Wind- mill-street. Haymiarket, applied for a warrant to apprlireed a youn.g mnan, residing in thie city, fur stealing a horse, gig, and harness value tio guinecas. The namte of the young man was not mientionedi pub- jicly, but he was stated tu be the son of a widow lady of the Ihighest respectability, in the vicinity of Clieapsidle. It was stated by Mr. Ausitin, that several weeks ago the y-oung 'man in question applied is4 him to I,ire a horse and gig for three days, abserving, ,that he wanted to go a little way into the coun' etry, and would retumn within the time he specified. The applicant consenited to let the hiorzse and gig for thiree days at 15.s_ per day. A considerable time elapsed, andi the horse and gitz not beinig retuined, Mlr. Austin began to make inquiries, and ap- plied to the uincle of the young mian, a restptctable merchant, who laid,I ipiwws he would take care to ascertain where hi-ehwws nd lie a,,~ured Nlir. Austin thait the hiorse anid gig were perfectly safe, and 'wouldI be retuirnedl, anil the hire paint. Day after dlay anti week alfter week elapsed, and till Mr. Austin could herntigether of the horse and gig, or of the person who hired i.Thunl put him off from time to time with various excuse,tels of whiich was, that his nephew was gone to Brighton, whiere he was ini a very delicate state of health. He assured Mr. Auitit,, lhowever that be need be under no apprehension for the sariety ofhis property, n,r that he would guarantee its safe return. At length he learned that the horse and gigt had been sold by the young man who hired it at 'Brightoni, in 3 or 4 days after it was iaken from Mind-mill-street. The excuses made by the uncle were sub-l sequent 'to the time when the horse and gig were actuaUy sold in) Brighton. Mir. Austin, after a great deal of trouble, traced Che y-oung inan to) Londlon ; and he ascertained that he wvas; con- czealed in the houise of his uncle iit the city. lie had tried in vain to get a sight of him ; he was still cooped up in hirs uncle's house, and he believedI the intention of his friends was to send hini abroaa, ouit of the reach of many persona whe hadl simila-r claims upon him with iMr. Austin. Mr. Austin Ihad watched, and had em- ploycdl others to watch, time uncle's house, hut the young fellow wxas too securely caged to be got at. hllr, Austin ascertained that the young mian had, wvithin a very short time, sold two other horses and gig "BighOn.

The Magistrate, upon this staLtement of Air. Austin's, imme- diately granted a warrant for the appreheonsion of' the young man, a-ad it was put into the bands of Holman, a patrol.

After some debate, the toll was paidlpand the chaise suffered to - r6ceed. It was also - at!aed that the colector behaved with great insolence. The collector in aefence said, the taking of the second toll arose froms mIntake. -* .. : Gtess'a'FxTs having ascertained that le had been collector t that gate for two yeara, observed, that he bad been there long enough to know his duty,which. if he did not know,he would now be (aught, . s he shoald fine him 2Os. and omsts.

Cobmplaint are continually being made at this office of the conduct- f many of the dzivers'of jhe short stages, who are in thc habit of passing along~ the New-road; and the consequence has been, that the Mtagistrates vae come to a deternmination to inflict heavy penalties in ail ases of furious driving wbich may be proved before them. WIrltarn ChandLer, driver of one of the T3ettenhamn coaches, was yesterday summoned on a charge of furiously driving. A gentle. mTn awho went to town by the coach driven by the defendant stated t,hat the coachmhan, notwitligtanding the remonstrances of imself and other passengers, persisted in galloping the horses all the way. He also took up a colmmn female, whom he placed on the box, and kept all the vway paying that attention to her whieb he ought to have pald to his cattet, The complainanlt gave it as .his opinion that the defendant vwas in liquor at the time. flur. C63cead, proprietor of the coach, attended, but ofered, no de. fence beyond seqaking to the man's general character.

A cor.siderable number of females of a certain class werenssembled ncat Lbh ohisce for the purpose of learning the decisioh of the nagis- trates in his case. Hlepaurn, the prosecutor, who is a man nearly sixty years of age lecapitulated his former evidence, as to a man conring behind hi0 on tie night of the 21st of August Inst, in Delahay-street, wih knocked him down by giving him a violeni blow on the head, and robbed hlm of his watch, as he lay in an aalost- senseless state. lr. Harris, a pawnbroker ot ofothill-street, produced a watch which the prisoner pawned at ils shop an the 10th of September. Ilepburn identified the watch as the one of which he was robbed; but le could not positively swear to the personi of the prisoner. I lr. AIARtLAX n._V6ujg OliVet yod stated on your former ex- amination that you bought this wascb of a person name(d TurpIn, and thlat you had evidetnce of that fact ? Oliver. ..I have a witness to prove what I asserted what true. A YoUng fellow was brought into the ofce, and said his name was Edwards (who recently was in cuttodv hiimself on a charge of bur- glary), and he, on being. interrogated bIy the Al agistrate, denied that ever lie saw the prisoner buy a watch of'Turpin or any otherh person. Votng Oliver here declared thiat the witness he had called had sworn falsely to save urpin, who was his companion. T1ree Poeple, the ethicer, stated that there was a man confinled in gaol for an assault, who was ready to make oath that he wasl presenlt when the prisoner bought the watch of Turpin. Another officer stated that when he apprehended the prisoner, Ire said that he purchased tie watch of a man in the street, to whom he was an uttet stranger. Alr. AIARXLAND said that he lhad made up his mind to commit thle pridoner to Newgate for trial, and expressed his sorrow that the father of the prisoner should have sst him :o bad an example, and have led himn to asseciate with the worst and most viciou2 of charac- ters. 'The prisoner, on leaving the efrice, declared his innocence of the roibbery. Alr. M jRXtAVD said that his connexion with such well-known characters as Turpin was a prcof that he was leagued with reputed thieves.-He was then conveyed to Newgate. Three men, named Parton, Morgan, and Mlartin, were charged with being concerned in comnmitting a burglary at the bouse of Alr. Naylor, St. Ornond's-hill, We4tminster. Part of tlle stolen pro- perty wes found on the tiay eflei the robbery at Afartia's house Pye- street, Westmsinster. Pople said the house was what by the thieves was called a fence, and produced the property, which was identified by alr. and aMrs. Naylor. lartin said that his wife, in his absence, bought the property of the prisoner Alorgan, who left a dark-lantern alt the same time, and she did not know the property was stolen. AlMr. AARXLANIl..Yours iS a very curious sort of a house, &r. lllartn; for if any thing is found, it Is taken to your shop for sale; if any thing is stolen, or Iost, the parties go to your shop to inquire for it; and your house could not have obtained this notoriety with- out some cause. Mfartin was committed to Newgate for trial for the robbery, and the other orisoners were remanded.

On searching him, he found on his person an instrumeent calculated to open the fastening ef the boots, and other parts of carriages, in which luggage is depo'sited, rlso a Bank of England note, No. 8,531, dated Aug. 10, 1824, for 51.; and a Spaniah silver medal, without a date, but evidently struck during the tonstitutional Goveniment, having an inscription, of which thc' following is a translation :_" Let us arm for the security of our altars, our glory, our wives, our children, . and our nation."
