No bills were found against William Keynolds, Mary Morgan, William Williams, George Jones, Barbara Morgan, Lewis Morgan, Ann Jones and James Dwyer. HORSE STEALING.—A man, calling himself James Webb, came to the Butcher's Arms, Monmouth, on Saturday night last, with a mare. The landlord's suspicions being excited, he had him apprehended and taken before a magistrate, in the forenoon of Sunday, by whom the man was committed for further examination. On lookinG" over the" Hue and Cry" which came by that day's mail, it appeared that a mare, answering the description of the one in the prisoner's possession, was stolen from the neighbour- hood of Frome, Somersetshire, on the 27th of June, and that a reward of 101, was offered for the appre- hension and conviction of the offender. This is the fourth committal to Monmouth gaol, for horsestealing, since the assizes in March. POST OFFICE IMPROVEMENT.—By an improved regulation about to be adopted, it will he arranged, that the mail from Lqndon, will reach Monmouth at 12, instead of half-past 12, and the mail from Mil. ford will reach us half an hour later than at present, which will leave us an hour and a half interval be- tween the arrival of letters from London and their departure for that place.
