The following it the official return of deaths from cholera and diarrhuti registered on Wednesday: Cholera. Diarrheas.

Williams, Gadsden ' and Williams, wine-merchants, of Great St Helen's, Bishopsgate, made anonymously the munificent present of a pipe of old port to the Mansion-house Com mittee, for distribution among the sick end convalescent. The value of the gift was further enhanced by the wine beingp the te d lar y few d free ;ys the Lord Mayor has been interesting himself in endeavouring to procure a better supply of water in the poorer parts of the City, and espe dolly on Sundays, repeated complaints having been made recently to the City Commissioners of Sewers that the supply on Sundays was scant, and that the poor were much inconvenienced in consequence. The result goes to show that it is the niggardliness of the landlords of small houses, and not the water companies who are to blame in this matter, and that the New River Company in particular has, of its own spontaneous motion and freeof charge, done much to make up for the short comings of landlords in that respect, especially while the epidemic has been prevalent. A deputation, yesterday, from the eastern district of Whitechapel attributed much of the low fever which has set in there since cholera has abated to the short supply of water to small tenements among other predisponeg Muses, and to the bad drainage. In Little Collingwood-street, where they said there was fever in almost every house, the water after heavy rains was.to be seen stagnating 4 inches deep in places, and the drainage was altogether unsatisfactory. This state of things arose wholly, they mid, from the neglect of land lords, and the tenants, who were mostly poor, were powerless to help themselves. They did not even com plain, fearing that if they did, and the landlords were put to expense in consequence, that their rents would be raised. A letter addressed to the Lord Mayor, on the part of the New River Company, states that for years past the company has given a Sunday supply wherever pariah authorities had shown that they were enable to compel landlords of small houses inhabited by the poor to provide properly for their tenants, and during the late alarm consequent upon cholera, without waiting for an application, the company has granted a Sunday supply to about 50,000 houses. Indeed, wherever consumers are ready to take water in any way, and will give a sufficient guarantee against waste, the company are reedy to make the supply constant. Besides, as a tempo rary arrangement during the epidemic, in ceder to provide drinking water for poor people without the contamination which comes from its store in foul cisterns, the company see allowing, free of charge, supplies of water to standpoets in the courts and alleys throughout their districts. The local committees in the districts lately infected, who attends at the Mansion-house, concur in representing that the disease continues to subside, and that in some parts it has been altogether stamped out ; but them is much distress from breavements, especially among children, and from the heads of families whom the epide mic had attacked being too weak from its effects to work. The low diet, also, upon which thousands of the poorest classes in the east of London habitually subsist, has, with other concurrent causes, superinduced fever in many parts. In the case of many of the convalescent patients from the Wapping Cholera Hospital, after having been discharged, there has been • relapse of disease on returning to their own homes. Many of the patients who had resorted to the hospital there were working men and seafaring people of the better class, and where death has resulted there have been some painful instances of bereavement among widows and orphans. The case was mentioned yesterday of • man named Ball and his wife ' who had both died in the hos pital, leaving four little children. Mr. Richmond—There have been six &talcum of cholera within the last few days, but the disease has been entirely confined to the workhouse, and is said to have been im ported there by a woman from the east of London, and who became its first victim. There were no fresh eases yesterday. At a meeting of the working committee, held yesterday, Sr Mordaunt Wells in the chair, grants of 1001. for pur poses of general relief, and 501. for assisting convalescents, w ere made to the district of St. Leonard's, Shoreditch ; 501. and 25/. for these purposes respectively, to the east district of Whitechapel ; and 501. for convalescents to the Wapping Hospital. A deputation from the Bow and Bromley health com mittee of the Poplar District Board of Works, composed of Mr. Blott, the chairman, Dr. Woodforde, medical officer of health, Mr. Cornelius Hoare, Mr. W. Oakley, Mr. Sherrard, and Mr. W. R. Brooks, waited upon the committee in reference to a statement made by a cholera relief committee from Bromley by Bow, of which the Rev. Henry Lance is chairman, to the Mansion-house committee on Monday last, es to the dreadful state of the drainage there, and espe cially in reference to • remark by one member of that local committee to the effect that in some parts of the district night soil was being used in making new roads, and even in some way for building purposes ; and Mr. Blott, the chairman, and Dr. Woodforde, the medical officer, on the part of the deputation, gave an emphatic contraiction to the latter statement, but admitted that the drainage was in an unsatisfactory state, arising from the low level sewer being unfinished and from there not being sufficient pumping power to drain the district. That being so, they said they had made extraordinary exertions to deodorise the district by the extensive use of carbolic acid, and by flushing it thoroughly with water. There were also so many agencies at work relieving the distress that they did not believe any case of real destitution could have gone unrelieved. The entire District Board of Works was divided into two parts for that special purpose. They had dispensaries open night and day, and provision was made for supplying medicine, disinfectant!, and stimulant'. They had, in fact, taken action in the matter before the publication of the Order in Council. Sir MORDAVNT WELLS, the chairman, asked the depu tation if they did not think that sonic of the servants cs workmen of the local Board of Works might have used night soil in the abominable way which had been stated unknown to them, adding that they all knew to what courses sub-contractors and the like sometimes resorted. Dr. WooDeonte replied that he did not believe it possi ble that such a thing could have been done without their knowledge, and he entered into some details to show the promptitude with which they had dealt with nuisances whenever brought under their notice. Sr MORDAUNT Weid.a said, before coming there to com plain of the statement made by the member of the local relief committee in question, the deputation ought to have written to the person making it to )mow on what grounds he had done so. They would then as public men have been in • position to give an explanation, but be did not think they were at present able to give a total denial to the statement. It might be when they come to investi gate the matter as a board of works that they would find something had been done which ought not to have been done, or. as they now said, that there was no foundation for the statement. Be that as it might, the committee would rest assured, after the statement of Dr. Woodforde, that the local board had done all that was fairly required of them in the emergency. METROPOLITAN SANITARY ASSOCIATION. —A con ference meeting will be held on Wednesday, the 12th in stant, to consider the subject of the present epidemic of cholera, in its medical, sanitary, and social aspects, by the Bishop of London, who has expressed his wfflingness to preside. A full attendance is expected of gentlemen who desire to discuss the question whether everything has been done that ought to have been done to check the present epidemic.—Medical Times.

Henry Francis, 19, was indicted for stealing three brushes, value •2s. 6d., the property of Thomas Talbot. Hr. Thomas Talbot, manager to the Institution for the Relief of the Blind, in Commercial-street, Whitechapel, said a month ago he found the prisoner in the street in a very wretched and destitute condition, and having pity upon him he engaged his at Is. 6d. a day to clean the windows of the i nsti tution, and be was so occupied for week. Believing that he could make the prisoner perma nently useful, be engaged him as messenger at 9a. a week, stripped him of his rags, and gave him the new Bull of clothes he was now wearing. He had only been in his new situation a week when it came to witness's knowledge that he had taken a pocket-comb from a poor blind man's pocket. He told the prisoner that in formation had reached him that he had robbed the blind man of his comb but the prisoner denied having d one so, said he found it lying in the workshop, and that he ha d riven it to a little boy.

Joseph Smith, another warder of the Coldbath-fields Prison, also provedtbree other convictions of three months each against the prisons. These were summary convic tions, Mr. Serjeant Dowling said the prisoner was a mart ungrateful fellow to rob his benefactor, and sentenced him to eighteen months' hard labour. Amelia Warren, 26, was indicted for 'dealing puree and the sum of 10e. from the person of Abraham Isaac Seckall. The prosecutor said be was an escapement-maker, and as he was going home through Lee-street, Kingsland, about eleven o'clock on the night of the 21st of August, the prisoner followed him and asked him to home with her. He had his purse safe in his coat pock et when she came up to him. She put her arm round , and preload him, and directly afterwards she went away, when he missed his purse. He followed her, and told her that she had taken his puree, and she pointed to it lying on the ground, and said " There it is." He picked it up, and found it empty. James Craning, police-constable 71 N, said on the 21st of August be was on duty in Sinpland-road, and saw the prosecutor . dragg li ng with the prisoner in the street. He said, ' She has robbed me of half a sovereign and other moneys," and he saw the prisoner attempt to pass some thing to another woman who was standing near. He caught her hand, and told her she had better give it to him, but she tried to put into her month. He found in her hand a half-sovereign, Is. lid., and a watch-key. She said it was all her own money, and that the prosecutor had given it to her. The prisoner said the prosecutor bad given her the money ; which the prosecutor positively denied. The jury found the prisoner Guilty. Mr. Ser jesnt Dowling sentenced her to be imprisoned and kept to bard labour for three months. SECOND COURT. (Before Mr. Payne.) 1 John Warner, 27, described in the calendar as a cabinet maker, was indicted for stealing 651 b. of lead, value Is., the property of some person unknown. The prisoner pleaded not guilty. William Bridgemnn, police-constable 35 K, said that he saw the prisoner in Commercial-road East, carrying 651 b. of lead, which he now produced, in a sack. He was followed by two men. He asked prisoner what it was, and he said, " I don't know." The other persons ran away. He took the prisoner into custody, and he said the men had given the bag to him to carry. The prisoner said the men had given him the bag to carry. He knew nothing about them except that they promised him sixpence for carrying it. A verdict of Acquittal was taken. Thomas Howard, 19, described es a watchmaker, was indicted for stealing a silver watch, value Si., the pro perty of William Gudgeon, from his person. The prisoner pleaded not guilty. The prosecutor was walking along Shorediteh, when the prisoner rushed at him and snatched his watch. The pro secutor pursued him, and he ran into a house. He was afterwards apprehended and taken to the police station. The prosecutor was fetched, and he immediately identified the prisoner from amongst others as the person who had stolen his watch. The jury found him Guilty. Mr. George Locker and Warder Reeves proved that the prisoner was a daring thief, and had been previously con victed of felony and sentenced to twelve months' imprison ment with bard labour. Mr. Payne said the prisoner must have • heavier sen tence this time ; he must be imprisoned and kept to hard labour for eighteen calendar months. Blanche Lasey and Susan Norman, two young women looking like servant girls, were convicted of stealing a pair of boots. The prisoners pleaded not guilty. The prisoners stole a pair of boots from the prosecutor's shop door. The prisoner Blanche Lessey said her friends were at Bir mingham, and it would break her mother's heart if alit knew of her position at this court. A juryman suggested that that if the case was mentioned in the public press her friends might come forward. The other prisoner said she was • general servant, and had been lodging in Drury-lane and Holborn-buildings. Mr. Payne said he should like to know something more about the prisoners, and had no doubt that if their names were mentioned in the newspapers something more might I be learnt of them. He directed Police.constable Lucy, 120 Y ? who took the prisoners into custody, to make some inquiries. ' The judgment of the court was postponed until next session.

The SRCRITARY having read the report, which con tained nothing of any moment to the shareholders, Mr. McMu-Lan (the late secretary of the company), called the attention of the chairman and the directors to the total absence in the report of any allusion to the Ilfracombe Railway Company. He thought this unfair to the shareholders. Mr. McMillan then read a report from, we believe, the Western Times of August 28, in which it was stated that the latter company had sued and obtained 10,514/. damages from the Devon and Somerset. The connection of the two companies had become notorious, and he thought that they, the Devon and Somerset, were in a false position, as it now appeared that under the Ilfracombe Railway Act of 1865, the Devon and Somerset Company were bound to fi nd a moiety of the capital required for the construction of the Ilfracombe Railway ; although in August, 1865 , the directors had advised the shareholders not to authorise the raising of the required capitaL The directors had assumed a serious responsibility, and it now appeared that there had been signal incompetency, or wilful blun dering on the part of some one, and he insisted upon the culpable party being held responsible for what had oc curred. A gross deception had been perpetrated on the shareholders, and he protested against the loss falling upon them, or upon the Messrs. Pickering, the contractors, who had so nobly exerted themselves In carrying out the under taking of the Devon and Somerset Railway Company. The Ilfracombe Act of 1865 must have read the same list year as it does now in 1866. The noble CHAIRMAN, in reply, said that he could only say that the directors were now advised that the Ilfra combe Act of 1865 rendered it compulsory on the part of the Devon and Somerset Company to find a moiety of the Ilfracombe capital, although last year they were ad vised it was optional. Mr. McMiLlatit said that a blunder bad been committed by somebody and should like to know who was responsible. Mr. PHILLIPS thought that the directors had better raise the money without delay, as they must ultimately do so. He thought the observations of Mr. Mc Millen entitled to the grave consideration of the meeting. The CHAIRMAN said that it was their duty to raise the money, and he should be glad if he knew where it was to come from. On the motion of Mr. Mc MILLAN, seconded by the Rev. W. BURDETT, an unanimous vote of thanks was accorded to the noble lord for his conduct in the chair, and the meeting broke up. 4 6 b 6 6 8 6 a 6 4 6 4 6 4 4 4 4 8 $ 3 3 3 $ SHIP Rscs FROM CHINA.—The arrival yesterday ' in the Downs, off Deal, of three out of the five clipper ships engaged in the ocean rue from China, created much interest in the City. The ships engaged in the contest ' were the Ariel, a new ship 853 tons, commanded by Cap tain Keay, owned by Messrs. Phillips, Shaw, and Lowther, of Royal Exchange-buildings ; the Fiery Cross, 669 tons, Captain Robinson, belonging to Messrs. J. Campbell, of Livetpool ; the Taeping, 97 tens, Captain Kinnou, com mander, belonging to Messrs. Rogers and Co., of London ; the Taitsing, 815 tons, Captain Nutsfnrd, muter, belong ing to Messrs. J. Findlay and Co., London ; and the Serica, 708 tons, Captain limes, master, belonging to the same owners. The ships are l aden with the first cargo of teas of the season. An additional freight of 10s. per ton is allowed the owner by the consignee of the cargo to the first ship arriving in dock, hence the competition for the prize. Taking Lloyd's list as an authority the Series, Ariel, and Taeping passed Foo-chow-foo Bar for London all on one day, the 30th of May. The Fiery Cross sailed from the same place on the previous day, the 29th , and the Tuning left on the 31st. The next heard of them was from Anger, Straits of Sunda, as follows —Fiery Cross passed through on the 19th of June. The Ariel, Series, Taeping, and Tensing on the 22nd of June, all in a few hours of each other, running the distance from Foo-chow - foo , about 2,790 miles, in 23 days. Yesterday Lloyd's agent telegraphed the arrival of three of the ships in the Downs. The Ariel and Tamping arrived at 8, and the Series passed Deal at lat noon. They had all steam tugs in attendance on them, and were pushing on for the nver with all expedi tion. They are expected at Blackwell to-day. Up to late last evening no news had been received of the Fiery Cross, which won the race last year, or the Taitsing. The distance, 14,060 miles, was run in 99 days. The time taken in last year's race was—Fiery Cross, 109 digs • the Bence, 110 days ; the Taeping, 1 15 days ; the days; Prince, 121 days," and the Flying Spur, 131 days. CRYSTAL PALACE.

THE LATB WIFI MURDER IN BIRMINGHAM At the Police Coirt, Birmingham, yesterday, William Smith, labourer, was charged before Mr. C. T. S. Kyn nersley, stipendiary, with the murder of his wife, Eliza beth Smith, by cutting her throat on the 22nd ult. The deceased, some few weeks ago, left her husband and went to Liverpool, with a man of the name of Langley, with whom she lived for some time, and afterwards returned to her husband at Birmingham. A day or two before the murder was committed Langley died, and on the night of the occurrence the deceased excited her husband by Baying that she loved Langley. Some words ensued, and the man struck her !indent her throat. The deed was done so quickly that some of the neighbours who were in the house were not aware, till they saw deceased bleed, that Smith bad any weapon in his hand, or that she bad been injured. Catherine Bedworth, and two other women, gave evidence to the above effect, and the prisoner was committed to take his trial on the charge of wilful murder. Mr. Mere, of the Midland Circuit, instructed by Mr. Cbestoa, ap peared for the prisoner. The coroner's jury bad returned a verdict et manslaughter. THE - SEPTEMBER -, •7; - - 1866: - S.SIONS. Police-constable Perry, 176 F, who took the prisoner in custody, also said that he believed her to be sober. The prisoner—lt is my firss time of doing wrong. I had taken u little brandy, and that was the cause of it. It was not for the sake of stealing. I did not want one boot. Mr. Flowers—No. You wanted two. You thought you would get the pair, and so would anybody think. I know I should have thought that when the string was cut both boots would come away together. But you see so many people think so that the shopkeeper is obliged to adopt this ingenious mode of tying hi, goods, in order to disap point them. This is a very bad offence ; but as you are not known, and it may be that you have never done any thing of the sort before, I will give you the benefit of that doubt, and sentence you to only one month's imprison ment. John Moore, a drover, was charged with grossly treatingsome bullocks at the Metropolitan Cattle Market. Mr. W. Love, chief officer of the Royal Society for the Prevention of Cruelt to Animals, attended to prosecute. The evidence of Po stable Brooks, 182 Y, was that he was on duty in the market area, when he saw the pri soner behind a drove of bullocks, and without the least provocation he hit one bullock over the head, and he fol lowed this up by bitting it three times on the hocks, and the last time with all his force. He asked the prisoner what he hit the bullocks for, and be said " For nothing particular, only for fun." He had repeatedly cautioned the prisoner about his cruelty. He was not a licensed drover, sad had before been in custody on charges of cruelty. The stick that the prisoner carried was a large heavy weapon, and had a large iron spike at the end of it. The prisoner said that he bit the bullock because it was going the wrong way. Mr. D'Eyncourt said the proper way to punish such fellows as the prisoner would be to administer to them the same amount of ill-usage that they gave to the in offensive animals. He should order the prisoner to pay a fine of 10s., or in default of payment he would have to go to the House of Correction with hard labour for seven days. The prisoner, who said he had got no money, was locked up in default. MARLBOROUGH-STREET. Mr. Joseph Avert!, printaeller, No. 96, Mount-street, formerly carrying on bonuses in the Haymarket, was sum moned before Mr. Tyrwhitt for assaulting Pietro Fenn, an Italian figure maker, of No. 16, Lamb's-conduit-passage. Mr. Lewis, jun., appeared for the defence. The complainant said, on the 20th August he was in Mount-street, having three plaster figures in his hands. On coming to the defendant's abop be was called in by • young man (Mr. Hogarth, jun.), who seised his hands, and immediately afterwards the defendant same from the back shop and seised him by the neck. He was very roughly treated, and on one at the figures being knocked out of his hand the defendant stamped on it and smaahed it into pieces. Mr. Lewis, jun., and the charge agawat the defendant was a most impudent one, the complainant being one of the itinerant image vendors and makers, and the defen dant the well known printseller formerly of the Hay market. The defendant was the agent of Mr. Stark, of Etruria Vale, Staffordshire, the registered proprietor of • bun of the Right Hon. W. E. Gladstone, which bust had been very considerably pirated. The complainant went to the defendant's shop with two plaster figures leaving • third, a pirated copy of Mr. Glubtone's bust outside. He told the complainant to bring the other bust into the shop and then be called his father, the defendant, wbo was in another part of the premises. The defendant ques tioned the complainant about the pirated bust. The com plainant said he had made 500 caste. The defendant was about to take hold of the bust when the complainant be came violent and scratched his face. The complainant was told to leave theshop, and, on refusing, was put out ; but as be created • great disturbance outside, a constable was called, and the complainant was given into custody. At the station the defendant was told he had better take out a summons against the complainant, but as he was obliged to go go out of town the complainant obtained • summons against the defendant. Mr. Tyrwhitt, after hearing farther evidence said it was a trumpery charge, and if any one had been injured it was the owner of the original. Who more than these Italians and others were likely to pirate works of art? They did not care whether they robbed the owners or not. He had no doubt that the complainant, after striking the defend ant, was thrust out of the shop, and then he thought proper to come forward with this complaint. He should dismiss the summons, and considered that steps ought to be taken to deal with the piracy. THAMES. Charles Howell, a well-known river thief, was brought before Mr. Partridge charged with being concerned with others in stealing 13 bags of sugar, weighing 17 cwt., from a barge alongside a Cork steamer, on the river Thames. The property was removed • few nights ago, and four of the stolen bags of 'agar were afterwards seen in a barge, near the Wheataheaf, -wharf, in Wapping, and the prisoner and another man with them. Two police-constables of the Thames division, namedWolsoncraft and Knight, surprised the two men as they were bringing the roger on shore. One was captured at once, and remanded by Mr. Part ridge until Tuesday next. The prisoner was not captured till last night. He now denied any participation in the robbery, and said he went to the wharf where the barge was lying to meet a friend. He asked the officers if they saw him touch the bags of sugar. The officers replied that the prisoner was called by the man in custody to help him. The man mid " Come along," and the prisoner made an answer that they could not hear, and went towards the bergs. On seeing the offi cers the prisoner ran away. Mr. Partridge—Are you sure the prisoner is the man you saw with the person I have remanded? The officers replied in the affirmative. Mr. Partridge—l shall remand the prisoner till Tuesday next. Alexander Ramsay, , a labourer, was charged before Mr. Partridge with stealing sixpenny worth of bread and meat, the property of Michael Laney, a labourer in the London Docks. The prosecutor deposited his jacket, containing four slices of bread and half a pound of meat, in No. 1 shed of the London Docks, and went about his work. The pri soner and another man were seen loitering about the abed and were watched. The prisoner went into the shed and took the bread and meat away with him. He was imme diately captured by Joseph Lyon, the man who was watch ing him, and given into custody of a police-constable named Chapman, No. 80 H to whom he sand that be did not take the bread and meat for himself, but for another. Mr. Partridge said the prisoner had been guilty of a very mean robbery. It was a dirty proceeding to rob a poor hard working man of his meaL He was afraid the prisoner was an idle fellow who would rather live upon other men's industry than work himself. He sentenced the prisoner to one month's imprisonment and hard labour. WANDSWORTH. EH:abet/I Green was re-examined on a charge of com mitting the following robbery: George Pullen, a labourer, living at Ironmill-road, Wandsworth, stated that on Saturday night, the 25th ult„ be met the prisoner in the company of a man called " Hen y," who asked him to " stand a pint." He treated him and the woman to two pints of beer. The man tint went out, and he was followed by the prisoner. When witness had finished drinking his beer, he left the hones, and found them outside standing together. The prisoner then said she wanted to speak to witness, who walked with her, and the man went in another direction. Shortly afterwards the prisoner ran away, and witness missed his purse, containing 11. 4s. in silver. He followed and called out. " Stop her." She was stopped, and he gave her into custody. Robert Jones, another labourer, aaidhs was in the High street, Wandsworth, aid saw the prisoner running and crying, " Harry." A Mall carnet up and she tried to give him something. The last witness came running up crying, "Stop her, she's robbed me." Witness shoved the man away, and stopped the prisoner. He then saw that her hand was clenched. Re opened her hand and took 3s. from it, at the same time he saw a purse fall to the ground. She swore that if be did not let her go she would run knife into him. He gave the 3a. to the last witness. The prisoner pleaded guilty, and asked the 'magistrate to deal with the case. Mr. Ingham thought the robbery had been planned, and said it was a pity the man was not in custody. He then sentenced the prisoner to six months' imprisonment with hard labour. ATTEMPTID MURDER sr A COMM.—Mail the time the convicts were employed at the extremity o Chatham Dockyard, on Wednesday afternoon, • most determined attempt to murder one of the warders was perpetrated by • convict named James Fletcher, who is undergoing a long term of penal servitude. Fletcher had been reported by John Boyle, the warder who was attacked, for some breach of convict discipline, for which he had been punished by being confined to the cells. On Wednes day afternoon be was relented, and sent to his labour with the other convicts in the dockyard, • number of whom were employed in breaking stones at the extreme end of I the yard, close to the extension works. While so employed, under the superintendence of Boyle, who was in charge of the gang, the convict, watching his opportunity, dealt the warder a frightful blow on the forehead with the hammer he was using, the effect of which was to cause • severe fracture of the skull the wound inflicted being some three or four inches in Loth. Before Fletcher could be restrained he followed up t e attack by two other blows on the bead with the hammer, both of which were sufficient to fracture the skull. The sudden ness of the attack prevented the convict being restrained until he had nearly murdered his victim, when he was at ono* seised, but resisted so violently that it was only by the guard using the bayonet that be was at length over powered and secured. The unfortunate warder was at onoe conveyed to the prison hospital in an apparently life less condition, and from the frightful nature al the injuries inflicted on him no expectations whatever were yesterday entertained that he would recover. The injuries Fletcher received during the struggle with the guard are not of • very serious nature. _ _ Air Itramenwr PAll.lBll.—The board of guardians of St. Pancras find themselves in pecuniary diffiaulties, with an estimated deficit on the half-year ending with the present month of 4,6781. ; and being unable to pay the amount of the polioe warrant, 12,0741., now overdue, they have offered payment of half the amount, and begged the Police Commissioners to grant them a respite of two month' for payment of the remainder. TILE POLICE COURTS MANSION-HOUSE. A German, named Henry Keiser, a miserable looking man, was brought before Alderman Finnis charged with stealing an umbrella from Gresham-house. It appeared from the evidence of • man named Evans, who is employed as a messenger at Gresham-house, that he saw the prisoner go into one of the offices and take a silk umbrella from behind the door, and walk o ff with it. He was stopped and given into cust ody, and be then stated that distress had driven him to commit the act. On his being searched Is. 3d. were found on his person. Smart, one of the City detectives, said that he was present at the Central Criminal Court in July, 1863, when the prisoner was convicted of • burglary, and sentenced to tour years penal servitude. This term of imprisonment would, in due course, have expired next February, but he bad been released upon a ticket-of-leave, and he believed that since he had been at liberty he had been trying to obtain an honest livelihood, but partly in consequence of his conviction, and partly on account of his being a foreigner, be had not been able to get anything to do, and he knew that he was in great distress, and he had himself given him small sums of money on several occasions, in consequence of his destitute condition. The prisoner, in broken English, and with tears in his eyes, assured the alderman that he had done all he could to earn his livelihood honestly, but he had not been able to get any employment. Alderman Finnis remanded the prisoner in order that some further inquiries might be made about him. A boy named John Jennings was charged with a street robbery. The complainant was the wife of • tailor named Plea sent, residing in the Commercial-road, and it appeared that about 12 o'clock on Wednesday she was in King William street when she felt a hand in her pocket, and missed her purse, which contained some silver. She seized the prisoner, who was close to her, and saw him hand her purse to another boy, but he dropped it and ran away, and she held the prisoner fast until • policeman came up and took him into custody. Obee, a city detective, informed the court that the pri soner was a notorious young thief, and he was sentenced to twenty-one days' imprisonment at this court, a short time back, for a street robbery. He belonged to • gang who were constantly prowling about Thames-street, and committing robberies upon the passengers by the steam boats, and upon one occasion he met twelve of them, each amain' • cigar, and as they passed him the prisoner touched his cap and said to him, Ah, how are you, Mr. Obee ?" (A laugh.) The prisoner was sentenced to two months' hard labour. BOW-STREET. A ragged, dirty old woman, named Mary Brown, was charged with stealing a boot from the shop of Mr. Mitchell, bootmaker, Drury-lane. The prosecutor said that at about ten o'clock at night the prisoner came to his shop and began turning over several of the pairs of boots arranged in front of the win dow. He watched her for a few minutes, and presently saw her take a pair of scissors from her pocket, and cut the string by . which a pair of boots were fastened together, thus releasing one of the boots, which she took up and put under her shawl. The witness here explained that the string of each . pair of boots was twisted round a piece of Iron wire an such a manner that they could only be got away by cutting the string, and then only one at a time. In order to get the other boot of the pair she would have to cut the string again. The prisoner appeared discontented at this discovery, and was about to apply the scissors for the second time, when a passer-by, not knowing that be was watching bar, called out, Hobos, Mr. Mitchell, here is a woman 'Walls your boots." The prisoner then moved off, but he followed and s her, and took the boot from her. She feigned but he did net believe abs was really tipsy. MARKETS.
