ROBERT Taveon.-At the Surry Session, on Monday, this worthy ,
was tried on a charge of having, on Good Friday last, in the Rotunda, Blackfriars Road, performed a most disgusting burlesque of the Lord's Supper. He was found guilty ; and -sentenced to be imprisoned two years in the County Gaol,. to pay a fine of 2001., to enter into his own
recognizance in the sum of 5001. for his good behaviour' and to find two
sureties of 2501. for the next five years. It has since been stated, that he has been harshly used in gaol ; this ought not to be suffered. He deserves no favour, and should receive none; but confinement is his sentence, and no man has a right to aggravate it. He is, in our opinion, a very contemptible person ; but his gaoler is not his judge for all that. Of this prosecution, also, the expediency is very questionable ; it seems to have operated to a certain extent in Taylor's favour.
OLD BAILEY SESSIONS.-None of the cases tried at these Sessions have been of great importance, nor have the circumstances attending them been such as to excite any remarkable interest.
C. F. Reinhart, a person connected with the suite of the young Queen of Portugal, was found guilty of stealing four rings from the Cider Cellar. The only feature in this case was the appearance of Mr. Evans in a new character-he seems to have gone through it creditably. The thief acted well also : he expressed great contrition, and fell into a fit ; . from which we augur a lenient judgment,-punishment, in England, being usually meted out less by the amount of the crime than by the Conduct of the criminal.
A female named English was indicted for bigamy, in intermarrying with a man named Hands, while her first husband, named English, was alive. It did.not appear that she was aware .of his being in life. She afterwards heard of it, and told Bands; but he made no use of the disclosure, until he got tired of his wife, anti then he took this method
of getting rid of her. English, it appeared, died in 1822; Hands was married in 1811. The woman was found guilty, and the Court fined her in one shilling, and discharged her.
Three men were found guilty, in the course of the week, of the rather singular charge of forging a discharge, by which to release one of their number from the Fleet, where he was confined in an Exchequer process : they were condemned to twelve months' imprisonment. The Court pronounced sentence of death yesterday on twenty-eight persons. Three of these were condemned for stabbing Policemen ; one was the Stamp Office clerk, Smith, convicted last sessions of removing Stamps from cancelled instruments, and affixing them to others ; the rest were chiefly for stealing in dwelling-houses-there were three women among the latter. Sixteen were condemned to transportation for life ; fifteen -to transportation for fourteen years ; and sixty-two, of whom Seventeen are women,-for seven years.
