It appeared, that for sonic time a disposition to resist certain regulations were manifested by the debtors on the !Middlesex side of the prison. One of the most salvo (a Ma jor in the Army) was therefore locked up in a strong room on Saturday afternoon. The consequence was, that the remaining prisoners combined; awl a threatening letter was smitten to the keeper, Mr. Kirby, declaring the intention of violence if the Major was not liberated.

On Monday the whole of the Otheer.4 belonging to this Ot Ace received instructions from Mr. Fielding to make a search in that nett of infamy in the neighbourhood of Tothilbf ebla, and bring on all persons to the Office whom they fume!

B. l'lcalow, &qrs. the Magistrates appointed to this division.— The Officers stated, that they commenced their search at 19 at night, and continued it until six in the morning. The anot her of unhappy creatures they found was so great, that Tothill-fields prison could not contain them; they then flitd the watch-house, and their last resource was to chain a parcel of them together, and leave a guard over them, and that they were obliged to link 20 or 30 ut them together to bring them to the Office ; some of them were in such a state of intesicati that they were obliged to carry them. The greater pal t of the men they knew to be notorious characters; ene of them was the son of the well-known Mother Abbess, of Newton-coot t, Strand. The prisoners were then severally examined ; hen it appeared that they rented miserable apartments in Py e- Street, Duck-lane, and Duck-court, from 3s. to :.s. per week, the chief of which belonged to Mts. Wilkinson. The watts. testes com:nilted to prison all tinder the age of 17, amongst whom were two sisters, in a most deplorable state from disease. The other females were discharged, with a suitable admoni tion ; and inthrmed, that if they did not)cove their wretched abodes before foin days, they should be sent to prison. '1 he men were also discharged ; but ioforitted, it they were seen in the same neighbourhood again, they would be sent to prison as rogues and vagabonds. A man named Durant, residing In St. Margaret's, Westmin ster, was charged wilti seducing his apprentice, a girl appa rently about 11 years old, but who was stated to be ltt, bound from the Doke of York's school to the prisoner's wife previous to his marriage. The girl being sworn most solemnly by the magistrate, declared the prisoner to be her seducer; that she had suffered almost martyrdom until he Oh eted his purpose ; and that fear alone prevented her telling her mistress the situa tion she was iu; but at last she was compelled to go into the workhouse, is hire she remained until the Ist of May, %%lieu she was brought to bed. The magistrate observed, it was a most Islet d transaction: the person under whose protection she was placed was the tint to ruin her. He must, however, be ac countable to the parish, and pay all exp•uees incurred, unless his innocence could be inure clearly manifested. MARLBOROUGH4TREET.
