lOspee Tomas Patter of the G divisloo, said—About
half-past 9 last night I won 00 Mount Pleasant io einropsny
with constables Fawell 42 A. and Ranger 19J G, sad saw
the two prisoners a abort distsoce before me and behind
some railway vans. We followed them op Phoenix-
place to Wells-street. Grav's4ee-road, where we lost eight
of them for some considerable time. We returned to
Mount-pleasant, and going up Phisuix•plaes. I saw Manning
with a large buudie us his head. I stopped the prisoner
and took him into custody. I asked him what
he had got there, pointing to the boodle. He said, " What
I have wit is my own. and I am going to take it to •
customer of mins." At the same time 1 saw the otber pri-
'"ner stopped by Ranger and Fawell. That prisoner was
also carrying a bale of goods. Manning threw the lamella
down nod tried to get away. Fawell picked up the boodle,
and I took Mesmer to the poliee4itatioo. On examining
the bundle at the policeetalioe I foetid it to metals one roll
of [impel, two pieces of winsey, and one pion of twill. The
whole were wrapped in coarse canvas, the same as moat
hors Sr. that are sent by rail. Whoa the prisoner threw
down the bale he threw it at rue, and it struck me oe the
nose. I have to ask for a remand to Sod no owner for the
Proven!, and I have reason to believe that both prisoners
have beta previously convicted.
The pri,ocer Manning—Did I not tell yen that I had
broimbt the hale from the Greet Northers Railway to oblige
sum I did not know? (A laugh.)
Witness—No, you said nothing of the sort.

A •ttlicrianTid e n Mary Moriarty, wearing au apology
for a dress, without covering to her head, or shoes to her
feet, wu charged before Mr. Tyrwhitt with begging is
ktegent-etrest.
The ceas having been proved by Emil Fritsch, 339 A,
Mr. Tyrwhits asked the child who seat her out.
The child said she was sent out by her mother, who
lived in Muir-yard, in the Strand.
Mr. Tyrwhitt said a good deal had been said by some per-
soca as to the magistrates at the police courts not doing
their duty, and sending these poor girls to inatitutione and
reformatreim ; but in spite of Mr. Sidney Tureen report to
parliament there was ecaroely a place where they could be
sent to without a sum of money or annuity was paid for
them. He should discharge the poor child, there being
more fault attaching to the mother than to her ; but at the
same time he would caution her not to go begging epic.
