NEGOCIATIONS wiry TOIEFES FOR THE RE- COVEIcY Qk' STOLEN PROPERI Y. Upon this subject, *hid', since the Ipswich mail affair, has been much talked of, Mr. Halls, the magistrate at Bow-street, look occ ision ou Tuesday to make some Wong observatinus.— t Seale, in whose house in Rosemary-Issue about 1,0001. worth of property, which had been stolen by burglars from the warehouse of a Mr. Emerson, in Watling-street, was found on Tuesdav se'nuight, was b.-ought up for re-examination, when Mr. Andrews, as counsel for the prosecution, begged that she be again remanded, to give time to procure further evidence. Mr. /lulls said lie should not object to delay iu a case of so much importance as this. Now, however, that the solicitors on both rides were preseut (Mr. Isaacs attended fur the prisoner), as well u all the parties concerned, he felt desirous of making a remark or two upon another subject. It bud come to lis knowledge, that, of late, where extensive, and indeed, enormous robberies had becn committed, negociations regu larly conducted had been entered into with the robbers, fur the restoration of the stolen property, upon the payment of stipulated PIMA and other conditionns ; and are wis very sorry to add, that men in the profession of the law, or at least practising as such, had lent themselves to these negociations, and had been indeed the go-between in disgraceful trims actions of this kind. There were men who had often been professionally employed in that very Office, and been at:- mitted as a matter of courtesy to the Bench, who had been ne gotiators between the rob!iers and The robbed. What was to become of the justice of the country if its course was to be thus obstructed by men whose duty it was most peculiarly to all it in its operations. But let these imlividuals take tare ; they should not be suffered, as Ind been the case, to curry %boot stolen property in their blue bags, and stipulate fur the price of its restoration to the lawful owner. Such per sons might shelter themselves within the limits of the city, but let them, or any of their clerks or agents, take care how they did any thing of that sort within his jurisdiction, for if it Caine to his knowledge, they might rely upon his pursuing the severest measures which the law would authorize.
