POLICE INTELLIGENCE,-I'llls DAY• BO \V-STREET, A Pious MENDICANT.-31ary Crawley, an old woman, well known at this court as a " blind" beggar, was brought up again on the usual charge. Police-constable Wiudebank, 361 A, said that on Saturday he saw the prisoner begging in front of Drummond's Bank, when one gentleman gave her a florin. Witness told her she could not he allowed to beg, and ordered her away. She next went to the gate of NorthumberlAnd House, where she again began begging. He saw her receive ls. and several sixpences and coppers, in all 4s. 2d. tie told her to go away, but she refused, and declared that she would not go away. till she chose. At last he was obliged to take her into custody. She used a great dual of bad lan guage, as indeed she usually did. The moment she saw him coming, Elie invariably began to discharge a voll y of abuse at hint. Mr. Flowers— How cau she see you if she is blind ? Witness—She is not totally blind. She can get her eyes open when she tries, aud then she shades them with her hand and she can see quite plain. Oa Saturday, a blind man came to Northumber ltnd-gate, and as soon as she saw him, she flew into a passion, asked him how he dare CJIIIO there to " rob" her, set upon him with her stick, and be laboured him so severely that he was glad to make his escape. Sergeant Reimers said the prisoner could see well enough when she' liked. lie had often seen her at work in her own lodgings, mending her stockings by candlelight. When she went to the chandler's shop to make purchases slie looked at the articles supplied to her to see that she got what she wanted and of proper quality. The prisoner kept up throughout the examina tion a series of whining protestations, mixed up with pious phrases and appeals to the Deity. Reimers•—That is the way she goes on, sir. She gets hold of ladies and gentlemen, and talks to them about God and Jesus, and they pay her for it. Then, when she sees a policeman, she attacks him with all sorts of blasphemy. When she is locked up she strips herself, and dances about the cell, cursing and swearing horribly. She has been 31 times convicted since 1864, and her conviction was lately returned, _ _ Mr. Flowers committed her to prison for three months, and cautioned her that if she was brought there again she really must be sent to the Sessions, when probably, on so many convictions being ➢roved, she would be sent to prison for a year. Mr. Alfred Langridge, proprietor of the Sun and Fakton, Damio-street, Piccadilly, said that last evening he went to the Three Compasses, Pimlico, and sat in the parlour while he drank some sherry and water. When about to g ) he found that his umbrella, which he had placed .in a corner of the room, had disappeared. 'The landlord, the waiter, and prosecutor, all took dif%erent routes to see if they could find the umbrella, which it was evident ha I been taken by some person who had left the roo:n. Prosecutor, fort unately, fomal it. He went towards Chelsea Hos pital, where opposite the College he found the prisoner carrying the umbrella partially con cealed under her shawl. Ile charged the pri soner, who had been at the Three Compasses, wil:;11 stalling his umbrella, when she declared she did not take it, although he had wrested it but a moment before from her. F risoner said she was taking some refreshments in the Three Compasses, when she, by accident, kno :ked her umbrella, whlch was behind her, down, and picked it up, and replaced it in a corner. When she was about to g.), she di I not think that t.ie umbrella belonged to anyone, and, clnsequently, that she might as well take it as any one else. Mr. Selfe —They call that thieving. A friend of prisoner, a pensioner from the army, said he took her in there to give her some ale, and she must have thought the umbrella belonged to him or a friend who was with him. Mr. Selfe— She has not said that herself. Witness—She scarcely means what she says. It is quite a mistake on her part. She does not un derstand how to give a description of it. It was stated that prisoner had worked for the sante laundry six years, and bore a good charac ter. Mr. Selfe, in order to punish her for the offence, 'ormally remanded her for eight days, at the same ime expressing great doubts whether he ought not to convict her of felony. what had j udges those patties must time been who heaped the money on him for the Goodwood Stakes. Ho , 6tarted first favourite for the 'Welter Cup, but was never in the race, and if WS running is correct, whiet there is no cause to doubt, he is dear at the price thatCaptaiu _Mach it paid for him; but, perhap, he may win him a selling race or two. Wolverhampton Meeting takes place on Tuesday and Wednesday next. This meeting, once so highly patronised when under the management of that highly respected gentleman, Mr Marshall, has fallen from the high position it then hell to a leather-flapping meeting. I have often heard the question asked, how is it there is more public money going at Wolverhampton than many of her neigh bouring towns? The place is situated near to various training stables. The important names of the stakes to be run for at this me eting proves how the town is surrounded by influential families. For instance, the Eeville Welter Cap, the Chillington Stakes, the Holyoake Stakes, the Wrottesley Stakes, and Patshull Stakes. The me ‘ting has be en liberally sup ported by su:no of tie noble lords after whom these stakes are named ; but from seen ) cause or other it only las s for a short tine, and their patronage is withdrawn. There must be something rotten in this state of things, and we would advise those in authority to inquire into the cause and stop their lowawarl toad ency. We notice that the Lord of Enville has not nominated a single horse for any race the:-: this year, which look; very much like his lord ship's having withdrawn his sapport fro.n the meetiog altog,th..r. It was thought that his lordship was dis satisfied with the handicap for the Wolverhampton Stakes I.tst year ; and, iadeod, it was evident from the first appearance of the weights it -was made for the home stable. as Honeymoon won in a canter. It looked at one time a good thing for Fidelia this year, but she rag badly at Goodwood, and lass incurred a 101 b penalty fur winning the Nottingham Handicap. I think there are others in the race that can beat her, if wanted. Caithness has too much weight; indeed, I don't soo anything with a chance until I comp to Pairwind, and I don't suppose his day has coma yet, and your readers must look out when they see any money go on. Mr. Parr's good look ing horse Ecarte will most likely run, but, from the run ning at Goodwood, ho can have no chance with 'mum. If the stable back him, he will win, if not, 1 shall stand the home stable with FIDELIA. The Stamford Biennial looks a goad thing for BADSWORTIL, if he runs, if not, MELODY will win. Of the fifteen horses that aro handicapped for the Stewards' Plate I like GORDIAN KNOT and BRENDA the best, the latter has often deceived the stable this year, but I believe she invariably wins her trials at home, and if she would on'y take it into her head to try, she would win in this com pany. I have no idea what is likely to run for the Staf fordshire Nursery, therefore I shall not hazard an opinion ; and for the Envillo Plate, I shall stand SALLIET with all her weight, as 9st will not stop her in this company, the distance (half-a-mile) being just suited to her The Cleveland Cup, once the principal race at this meet ing, when Ilarkaway, Charles the Twelth, and other famous horses used to contend for this much-contested prize, has now dwindlsd dowa to a regular leather , flapping race ; and, although there has boon several altera tions made in the conditions, it has often ended in a walk over. Within the last few years there have been a very moderate lot entered for it. On the present occasion, LORD PALMERSTON and Runic are the best, and as the latter can stay, as ho was seconi for the Ascot Stakes, and will have all the allowances, I shall stand him to win. There are a very moderate lot accepted for the Borough Members' Plate. Ironmaster on his Northampton run ning would seem to be good enough to beat all the lot, but ho has never ran up to that form since, and as the Skipper will not be pulled out Lady Clinton may be good enough to beat all the others. The Chillington Stakes looks a good thing for Melody. The Holyoake Stakes I shall award to BanNtno. A great many of our New market horses are entered for the Great Autumn Han dicap, and on my return to head-quarters I s hall keep your readers well posted of their doings, and hope to be as fortunate as I was last year, when I was your Now market correspondent ; as your readers will remember I stated the great favourite Honesty was a duffer, and that Julius would win.

SPORTING NOTES. Wolverhampton meeting will be held on Tuesday and Wednesday next, when, let me hope, the programme will be conducted in an equally satisfactory manner as undc3r the management of a former clerk of the course—Mr. Devereux—when it was patronised by all the surround ing nobility and gentry, besides any quantity of the " fair sex," who invariably dressed themselves for the occasion. Tuesday's programme does not require much specula tion. SALLIET or LADY HIGHTHORN will Will the Ea villa Plato. As regards the Wolverhampton. Stakes, I fancy ILIUM else appears worthy of is a certainty; indeed nothing notice unless it be FIDELIA, who may turn out next best. For the Tenth Stamford Biennial Stakes I fancy MELODY, but I am sure King of the Rovers is a good horse some day when he is asked. As regards the Staffordshire Nursery Hanlicap, I consider KICKSEY WICKSEY is likely enough to turnlout the winner, and really can see nothing good enough to beat her. The Stewards' Plate is only of the value of 50 soya , and it is therefore uncertain what animals may run ; but if BRENDA does, she must represent me. On Wednesday, I believe in LADY CLINTON for the Borough Members' Plate, and for. The Chillington Stakes, after going over the performances, I have most faith in ROBESPIERRE, next to whom MELODY reads most dange rous. If THE RETURNED should be started for the Holy oake Stakes I think he will win, but in his absence BAR NABO reads like a certainty. I consider it is a really good thing for MILTON, who has sundry allowances, for the Cleveland Oup, which ought to make it a certainty for him. Of course Tue Earl will not run for The Ninth Stamford Biennial Stakes, and as I should not think Speculum will be sent to contest the prize, my opinion is that UNCAs Will win. Bromley is 53 much of a local gathering that I decline to interfere with it. Stockton races will occupy Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday, and never have they been so successful as under the auspices of Mr. T. Craggs, who, as clerk of the course of this and other meetings in the north, has made himself a reputation second to none. The fact is, he possesses two cardinal viriues, viz., civility and perseverance, which aro sure to make him conspicuous amongst his compeers. There aro thirty-three subscribers for the Cleveland Stakes, but as DRYAD obtains 31b. allowance it should be a certainty for her. The Stockton Tradesmen's Handicap has only fourteen acceptances, and of these I have a decided opinion that FORTUNIO will prove the winner. ELVIRE is not overburthene,d with weight for the Harry Fowler Stakes, and I b:lievo TILE SPY will carry his penalty of 81b. extra, and win the Zetland Biennial Stakes for three-year-olds. My preference is forJENNY MILLS, engaged in the Town Plate, but if de feated, it will be by BOOTY. Thursday's engagements at this m3 , 3ting are The Wyn - yard Handicap, for which ATTACIIE sea:ns In )st f tvour - ably handicapped; and the Elton Juvenile Stak-m, tJr which I prefer POMFRET. Tho Middlesbro' Handicap is run on Friday, ant if ever TIMART; could gallop she has an opportunity of winning this stake. The Garbutt Nursery Handicap is a gift to Pox- FRET, unless LOUD BOTUWELL should baat him. Cone •rn iug the thirty subscribers for the Stockton Stewards' Cup, FROLICSOME appears to have a chance sawn 1 to none The Windsor Meeting, which is fixed for Thurs lay and Friday, is sure to be well patronised, as Mr. Frail, of Shrewsbury, under Whose management it is, is a great favourite amongst the "swells," and in my opinion de servedly so too. On the first day PRESIDENT LINCOLN ought to win the Castle Handicap, unless Licron should beat him. In the Park Nursery Handicap KING OF THE ROVERS and TOrT are not heavily handicapped. If MINA runs she will win the Frogmore Handicap, and in her absence I fancy REDIVINUS. Should Zrsc.t come well .to the post for the Forest Handicap Plate I shall look no further for the winner. The best aubnal engaged in The Clewer Stakes is CIIANOINESSE, and I think she will win in spite of her 71b penalty, but if she should not I have most faith in PREBENDAL, who is a good looking filly in a small compass. On Friday, The Windsor August Handicap has only about a dozen competitors loft in, ani of these I think CHORAL has only HONESTY to fear. I do not see anything more favourably in than DISTAFF and THE VIXEN COLT for the Welt 3r Hui lieap, whilst SELEUCUS and Luau are equally well in the Winkfield Nursery Handicap. The Hamilton Cup. has same of the best speed of the day . en ga g e d, and I presume LEONIE will beat all corners, but I should very, much like to ale FLEETWING brought out for this engtgernent. Their re spntive weights wo u ld b e L eou i e 3 yrs 9st, Fleet wing 2 yrs 6st 101 b, and my impression is that the youngster will win. • A FRESH MAN. (From a Correspondent of the Racing Times.) The Brighton Meeting only requires a few remarks, as with several exceptions, the horses that ran during the week were very little ab - we plating form. Of course Speculum is the best of the lot, and all those who selected him to win the Goodwood and Brighton Cup will now applaud themselves to the skies, but his backers for the Goodwood event won their money in coasequence of Julius having lost his temper and refusing to go nxtr his horses when Daley called on him. The stable held the same opinion that 1 formed of the latter the week before Goodwood, as both his noble owner, trainer, and jockey, thought he was sure to win, and started Speculum to make the running for him. The Brighton Cup was a mere canter for Sp3cu lum, as Blueskin, who was shinsore,could not move from the effects of the severe race he had the day before in the Stakes, whore, I think, he ought to have won. Had he come a little sooner, and got up to Thorndyke's heal, it is the opinion of many people that the son of Thormanby would have cut it as he did at Hampton and Ascot ; but Blueskin never quite reached him, and was just defeated by a head. Paul Jones ran like a bad horse for this event, which corroborated the opinion I formed of him the week after Chester, as he beat nothing of any merit. He has been called by some sporting writers Mr. Hodg man's steam engine, and it was said Mr. Brayley had backed him for a £l,OOO, and that Fordham would like to ride him in the Derby. Such remarks are sure to make bad horses into favourites, but Mr Hodgman must now be convinced that the celebrated " Pirate" is a third-rate horse instead of a steam-engine. Sir Oliver did his stable some service by winning three races. I told your readers he was very fit before he went to Goodwood, but all those that he beat are very moderate. The Duke of Newcastle was apparently afraid to pull out Speculum for the Cham pagne Stakes against Vespasian, and if he had he would certainly have been second. Ho has now returned to New market with all his full-blown honours on his head, and some writers would make the public believe that he is a re gular, clinker, but he has done nothing first rate, as I question if the stable backed Tabouret for auy money on the Good wood Cup ; therefore, the latter's running should not be sot down as any criterion to the Ebor Handicap, for if that is his true form it is 20 to 1 agst him for the York event. The victory of Storm Sing in the Nursery shows the un certainty of private trials at Newmarket, as the Impera trice colt beat him before they left home, and the stable stood the latter for some money. The backers had a bad time of it over Becky Sharp filly, still they put the money down like men, and with as much confidence as if they were sure to pick it up again. The class of horses that ran at Lewes were much the same as those we saw at Brighton.T he running of Leon ie proved what a lot of weight a good animal can give to bad ones, and the running of Reindeer was much better than the form .he showed at Brighton, as he made Leonia gallop. Haymaker is a good looking horse, and is sure to pay his way before the year is Intr. Gannon ball's Pairnrablo parfprnagam ohyviocl MARLBOROUGH-STREET. CHARGE OF MANSLAUGHTER.—tiOIin. Howe, a silversmith, residing at No. 23, Wells -street Oxford-street, was charged before Mr. Tyrwhitt with causing the death of Thomas Price in Wells street. • Mr. George Lewis, jun, of Ely-place, appeared 'or the prisoner. James Morris, 18, Wells-street, Oxford-street, a bootcloser, said on Saturday night, shortly after twelve, he was standing outside his door and heard an altercation outside of the Tiger public-house, and on going up to see the cause he saw the prisoner knock a man down. The man raised himself up again, and the prisoner again struck him, and the man became insensible. Some person procured some brandy and tried to get the man to take it, but he could not. The prisoner stood by all the time. The man was afterwards taken to the Mid dlesex Hospital, and the prisoner followed to the hospital, and when he was informed about five minutes after the man was taken to the hospital that the man was dead he was much affected. In answer to Mr. Lewis, the witness said he did not see the first part of the affair. Joseph Surry, a tailor, of No. 27, Wells-street, Oxford-street, said he was standing at his door and saw the prisoner and another man talking together, and the prisoner suddenly struck the man a blow on the head and the man fell. The prisoner then picked the man up and struck him again and he fell. He asked the prisoner why he had struck the man, and said it was a shame, the prisoner threatening to serve him the same. In answer to Mr. Tyrwhitt, the witness said the prisoner struck the man brutally, and would have struck him too if he had had a chance. Police-constable Melhuish, 49 E, said he was sent for to the Middlesex Hospital, and saw a man lying dead there, and took the prisoner into custody, and on telling him the charge he said he was sorry he had done it. Mr. Tyrwhitt said he would remand the prisoner for a week. Mr. Lewis asked the constable whether the pri soner gave any explanation of the affair. The constable said he did not. Mr. Lewis asked the magistrate to take bail, stating that only one side of the case had been heard at present. Mr. Tyrwhitt refused the application. Mr. Lewis said he would like to call a witness. Henry Parke, a young man, was then called by Mr. Lewis, and said that he saw no second blow given, but he saw the deceased while in a sitting position after the first blow, fall back, and severely strike his head. Mr. Tyrwhitt ramanded the prisoner, and de• dined to accept bail. THAMES. ROBBERY BY A SERVANT.—Mary Hunt, aged 20 years, was brought before Mr. Benson charged with stealing a quantity of lace, four white cotton hand kerchiefs, two napkins, some black silk, and other property belonging to Mr. Benedict Mellish, resid ing at 30, Colet-place, Commercial-road-east. The prosecutor said the prisoner had been in his service two months up to yesterday, and that lately Mrs. Mellish had complained that she had lost a good many things, and that the consumption of provisions had increased beyond the consuming powers of the household. Inquiries were made, and it was ascertained that the prisoner, who was very fond of indulging in a love of finery, had been rob bing her master and mistress. Her box was opened with her own consent, and a large piece of bacon, a veil of black Maltese lace, two expensive ostrich feathers, five pocket handkerchiefs, some black silk, and other property, was found in it. Some silver spoons were also missing, and the prisoner said that a young man who kept company with her, and "followed," tilted the plate basket, some of the spoons dropped out, and he put them in his pocket and went away with them: Mr. Benson said the young man should be sough after and taken into custody. Mr. Mellish said the prisoner was discharged from a former place for encouraging the visits of the young man. Michael Hanby, a police-constable, No. 27 K, said the prisoner had acknowledged she took all the things found in her box. The prisoner said that her sweetheart, a young man, took other things while she was out. The mother of the prisoner made a defence for her daughter, who she said had been misled by << h er daughterman," who had himself robbed Mr. M e lli s h . was subjected to fits, and she had o yH n oeu e rn y g li ich lasted nine hours. A doctor said her daughter's mind was affected. Mr. Benson said he could not attend to assertions not supported by evidence. The prisoner pleaded guilty, and her master re commended her to mercy. Mr. Benson said the prisoner had been keeping bad company and robbing her master. A young lady's box had been cleared out and plundered by the prisoner, and the articles found in her box were stolen at different times. He would take into con sideration the recommendation of the prosecutor, and sentence the prisoner only to six weeks' im prisanment and hard labour. A disorderly woman, a friend of the prisoner at the back of the court, here doubled her list at the prosecutor, and exclaimed, " Oh, you wretch." She was immediately removed. WESTMINSTER. AN. AWKWARD MISTAKE.—Martha Carroll, a woman upwards of 50 years of age, of respectable appearance, was charged with stealing au umbrella, WEDNESDAY.

Mr. King was in his forty seventh year, and suffered fro:u disease of the kidneys. lle was bought up ii John Scott's stable, awl was head lad at Whitewall Soule for some time. Shortly after wards, on marrying a Miss Tarlton, of Aintree, he became landlord of the Salutation Inn at Doncaster, where his agreeable manners made him a host of friends. His ability as a trainer, for the resumption of which. occupation ha shortly seceded from hotelkeeping, needs very little. com ment, as ho twice trained Dalby, the winner of the Chaster Cup, for his owner. The wonderful success which ho hail with Challenge, The Skipper, th.,,.belenging to Mr. Richard Porter, for whom ho was training at tiy time of his decease, must be quite fresh in the recollection'of our readers, tuati We can only say, " ReittiCecat_in pace:' Share 100 ICO 100 109 100 16.11.
