Pixplsin to the Committee the genera) nature of the este- ,-...- hliehmem„ and .of. the duties allotted so :he foot patrol; which is understood to he Under your suptrintendence?— The foot patrol was estehilshed as long ago as the time . of Sir John Fielding.: when I first had any thing to do with it, was in the time that Sir Richard Ford was Chief''. Magistrate; since that time has been more or less under • my immediate superintendence; latterly I have devoted a great deal of time to it. It was originally appointed i.t consequence, I believe, of the great sumber of footpad robberies that were committed in the immediate vielmte of the metropolis. and sever it of them in the streets et . London ; their duty was to patrol to the extent of three or font Wfiles from [Arden. along the principal . roads and avenues leading into Its but there was no regular inspection, nor any one to look after the street performance of their duty. until I was appointed to that situation. Several alterations have taken plane since • • that time: the first was, that a number of men were seat oat of London, and stationed at the distatt .e of about four miles, generally upon the principal roads leading into the metropolis: it was then arranged that the niell• no stationed at the outskit's at a given hour 1e trolled ' towards London, while another party set off at the same time from the atones ends of the different roads, and tbev: patrolled outwards; so that the party coming in snit the party going oat met niitlrway ; they were eacirtit the extremity of the road at the same time: the coun try party then returned home, awl the London party, after communicating aids the horse patrol, returned to London, by which they cro.sed each other twice on s the road, and the whole length if the road was toles- ably well protected. In consequence of there haring . been a great number of street robberies committed itt London, it was thought neces.ary by his Majesty's then.' Secretary of State, Loral Siduroutli, that the whole of tilt' foot patrol should he withdrawn from the coun•ry duty meal employed in the streets of Londe's; a c.rtain ntintLer of men were then added to the dismounted horse petrel.; and they took op the spate duet was formerly occupied by :. the street foot patrol out of London; the still is mitt; nned ; so that now the horse patrol rind the dismonntill horse patrol do the whole of the country duty, and the Bow-street foot patrol arc confined to the streets of. the metropolis, which has been divided into sixteen districts. ' and a conductor and four men ,nightly patrol each of these districts: the conductors attend weekly at Bows icreet, and deliver in a report of their weekly duty, certi fying the attend ince of the men, and noting' its parti cular occurrence that has taken place. Thret ef t4I e parties also at•ernt weekly to be inspected, and their az. pointutenta examined ; and if every thing is not as It ought to be, the necessary repairs or alterations it. die reeled to I c done. . . What has been the circa of the new power granted by the last year's Act; have a greater number of reputed thieves been brought before the police ?s-No ;I* think not. The new powerhas not had any considerable effect?—l think not. Has it rot dr iven away the reputed thieves altogethee= That is another question; I think rot; but the of ices do not consider, nor do I consider, they have any power to take a man up because they know him to be a thief ; there must be something about that mm's 'conduct at the. moment to indicate all intention to commit a theft. An. officer has not a right to say, I know you are an old thief, come with me before a msgiserate: there must be some circumstance from which the officer draws au inference that the man is about to comm it u felony. , • Do you not consider the improvement in the mariner of lighting the metropolis one of the causes that the lum ber of street robberies has diminished?-No; 1 shoulat think that has very little effect upon it. If the lights wer' brought nearer to those of day, would not that prevent offences ? The smaller 'mustier of - offences in the day-time does not merely arise from the difference of light and dark in the day-time: there are more per•ons moving about. and they are mostly a different description of persons from those those who occasion trouble,at night, who are otherwise engaged in the day. Has it -come tinder your notice, whether the regoile•isn in the Act of last Session with respect to coffee shops, has been of service to the police ?—Uf very great service, though there are many coffee shops now, they are not kept open- to the late hour they were formerly, nor do they harbour thieves as they used. I think if the penal ty the Acts give was less, and the app eal to the sessions • /taken away, it would be very beneficial , for now the y appeal to the sessions, and by the time the sessions c nnn s round, the witnesses are out of the'way or neglect to at= , tend, and the prosecution fails. Have there not in consequence of the Act which gives von power over coffee shops, other shops opened fur the same purposes, only nominally employed in differenttradess such as grocers and butchers ?—No, I am net aware of that ; there are other houses, but they do not (Ivry itstro that extent ; there are many cook-shopssor eating-house., where the hot victuals will be smoking hot at twelve o'clock at night, and the oyster shops. Are there not oyster shops in which there is the same •leseription of company assernbledas formerly assembled in coilce shops?—No, not nearly so bad ; a man is es peed when lie goes into the back parlour of those oys ter shops to spend itinre than would suffice at a coffee hop; it is not the very lowest class of thieves who fres ilient the oyster ahups. It is the upper class of thieves, perhaps ?—Very likely ; they are open to every petson. Are they kept open to a very Me boar?—Not to a very late hour; the theatres are a great inducement to keep them open till one o'clock perhaps. Hare you any reason to suppose they have inere t 0,.,!. because the Penalty applies to the term coffee shop ?-1 do not think so. • Do yow think that if those coffee ahopsmere licensed, it would go still further to give 4, s owee lb the polite' over them ?'-'-Nos I Sbink the prosent s power overthem is iritsi sutficient,und mote ailuidoryi .

ULLETT,'BROMERS and Co. POLICE OF THE METILOPOLIB: (PARLIAMENTARY DOCUMENT.) In the course of the last Session of Parliament, a ComMit tee of the House of Comnions was appointed to inquire into the state of the Police of the Metr..polis, and to re port the same, with their observations thereupon ; and towards the latter end of such Session (June 17) they made their Report. but unaccompanied by the evidence, in order that a Bill might he introduced pursuant to the 'veconemendations of meth Committee. A Bill was intro theived, but it only partially embraced the objects of the 11140e1fanatevidence, which they classed under the follow- Ping heady: rhe Miff of the City of London. 2. The nightly watch mid the Poll•e of the City of Westminster, end of the several parishes which consti flute the remainder of the Metropolis within the bills of mortality. 3. The police establishment at Bow•street, and (tinder the immediate superintence of tic Chief Magistrate at that 'dice) the foot patrol, and the horse patrol mounted and dismounted. 4. The police establishments at Marlborough-street, Hatton-reardeu, Worship-street. W hitechapel, High-street, Marv-laonae, Queen-square, Union-hall. Thames Police. That evidence is now printed. Mr. Peel, the Home Secretary, was the Chairman of the Committee. The following are extracts: — Sir RICHARD HUME examined. You are head Magistrate of the police-office, Bow street ?—I am. State the establishment of officers at Bow-street? — We have three clerks, eight principal officers, as they are called ; and a hundred foot patrol, under seventeen com manders. You have eight constables attached to your district? — Yea. Two of those are in attendance upon his Majesty ? Two of those are in pretty constant attendance upon his Majesty. State generally the occupation of the other six ?—The other six are in general attending the office, but are most frequently emplo)ed in the country, bring sent for in ewes of crime, where the persons think they would be more effective than the constables of the district ; they take their rotation of attendance at the office when in town. What is the sort of business on which you think it de siable to despatch those officers into the coontry ?—For stery, as under Bask cases ; perhaps burglaries, that arc attended with didicaley in finding out the perpetrators in the local districts. • State how the officer is rewarded?—Generally by the person sending for him, indeed, always; they have only 235. a week as a sort of retaining fee from us, and if they are taken from home, their actual exposes are paid by the parties, and they generally have from half a coin's to a guinea a day during the time they are from home, which the parties sending for them pay. In case of an atrocious crime, where the party con cerned is anxious to procure the detection of the offend er, and cannot afford to pay, do you refuse to despatch an officer ?—No, I do not remember that I ever did so ; nor do I remember any one ever having been refused ; 1 think, if it was very atrocious, and the per ins tenable to pay, I should feel it my duty to seed a❑ ofticer,-and sub mit the case for the Secretaay of State for the time. Have the police officers in general any allort•ance in case they are wounded ; or in case they should lose their lives in the service, is there any pension for their fami lies? —1 believe not; there was a man of the name of Smithery, lost his life about two years ago in Cato Street, a very handsome provision was mule by Government, and a large subscription raised ; but that was a peculiar THEATRE ROYAL, COVENT-GARDEN. ON TUESDAY NEXT, the Itith instant, the WES TERN PHILANTHROPIC INSTITUTION, for the Relief of the necessitous and deserving Poor, will take their ANNUAL BENEFIT, when will he performed, the favourite Opera of DON JOHN. or the TWO VIOLET.

Do you think an arrangement to that effect would be very advantageous in securing the gallant conduct of officers?—Yes; 1 have often lamented that there was not; if there was a prospect of a retired allowance, or any thing for the widow, or any thing in the event of being hurt, 1 think that would be a great stimulus to their exertions. Do you conceive the street robberies have diminished in the metropolis ?—Very much. To what do you attribute the decrease? Last year Lord Sidmotith was making it a very general subject of conversation with all of as ; he suggested the calling in the out-parties, as 1 call them ; viz. the districts that are now patrolled by the dismounted patrol ; they were called in, and a sort of re-organization made of them ; they are kept entirely to the metropolis; they do not go off the stones; there are now no such thing as street rob beries, attended with the cruelties there acre twelve months back. • Has the number of robberies round the environs of London decreased ? Yes, his Lordship's arrangement occasioned an increase to the patrol, because those men being taken from the environs, and placed upon the streets of London, were obliged to be made up ; and they are chiefly men that are candidates for the horse patrol ; they are called by way of distinction dismounted horse patrol. What precaution is taken against robberies that are committed in the greets by day ?-1 am afraid tutu little; awl that is my reason for %visiting for a day patrol. The observations you made in former questions alluded to robberies committed in the streets by night ?- 1( es, certainly. Do you think there hasbeen any decrease of street robbe ries committed by day ?—I think there las, though not in enlarge a proportion as of the night ones; the party that attends the playhouse at night,—(we think that an e asy duty,) an therefore we make them till up their day by patrolling. is it true that the inhabitants of one side of the Strand have established a patrol to patrol the street by. day ? I t is true they have entered into a subscription to give a man Iris. or a guinea a week to walk up and down ;taut diapers mobs, and to look at people standing about, and he cer tainly has been of use. Are the juvenile oll•nces committed principally in the 413 V titlie ?—No ; 1 should think principally at twilight; I think they are not so prevalent as they were; the prac tice of starring the•windows has decreased. is the person appointed by the inhabitants of the Strand a constitute ?-11e acts as such ; we have no pow er to appoint 1 • .
