Toropesey, the Officer, said, that last Saterdey night he watched and followed the Prisoner from Flint's shop, and, from the roundabout way is • likh the young man paraded, it appeared to the witness that he feared some eye was upon him ; that the Prisoner slipped a bundle out of his hal, and transferred it to a secret part of his dress with great cattion ; and that he walked into a haberdash. er's shop in the oeighbeerhood of Lincoln's Inn. fields, where the Officer seised hies, and found in his possession some ribands, silks, gloves, ice. which he acknowledged he had abstcaded from Mr. Flint's stock, without the permission of the firm ; that Mr. Flint came in soon after, and to Li• great astonishment heard that the shop belong ed to the Prisoner; that the Prisoner was a married man, and that his wife actually carried on business in that very shop. The officer added, at the Com plainant, upon stemming the stock in the new con. cern, found that be had been robbed to a verb greater event than he was at first aware of, and that he soon ascertained that the Prisoner's shop wet ptinti. patty if not wholly furnished from the fruit of the depredations committed upon the firm. A cart load of goods which had beets taken from the shop, consisting of showy, scarf.,rihands,fiennels,ho siery. end haberdsshery of every description, ar rived at the Mansion•house, end were ideolified, for the mosupert, by Mr. Flint.
