while the kitchen and cellar were densely crowded with
lassies of the same class and character. - -

In answer to the charge, the defendant, in a confident
tone, denied his liability to stch proceedings, upon the
ground that he had acted throughout as a mere agent in
the matter, and had nothing whatever to do with the owner.
ship of the premises.
Mr. Hanimill said that the defence he had attempted to
set up was fortunately provided for under the 14th
section of the statute, which enacted that soy person hav-
ing the can or management of *common lodging-house was
amenable to its provisions; and he should, therefore, con-
vict the defendant in the full penalty of £6 and outs, or
three months' imprisonment.
The defendant, who declared that he would rot In prison
before be paid a farthing, was then removed by the gaoler.
After the cue had been disposed of, a simple-looking
youog euntrymso, named Junes Cunningham, entered
the witness box, and stated that he wished to complain of a
heartless robbery which had been practised upon him at the
house in querion, with the knowledge and connivance, as
he bad every reason to believe,:of the defendant Watson.
It appeared from the statement of the poor fellow, that
he was a native of Manchester, and had reeently been
employed in the government powder mills, et Waltham, in
Ewe, from which plus he was iodated, on Saturday last,
to make his way to London en foot, with the intention of
entering the Army Works Corps. In answer to his inquiries
for a temporary lodging on his arrival in town, be was
directed, in an evil boar, to the house in King's Head-
man, where De saw the man Watson, who readily agreed
to provide him with a room, and offered to take charge of
his carptt bag, containing his extra clotbieg and attar arti-
cles, together with his washing tools, which he valued at
30i. He accordingly pissed the brigand its outsets under
the cue of Watson, what latredneed him into a large rum,
where he found several men and women, who plied him
with drink, which was seat for and shared by the landlord,
until he was completely stupefied, and on waking up next
morning, he found his pockets turned inside out, and that the
whole of his bard d savior, amounting to 41. in gold
and silver, had disappeared. He immediately commusi-
cated his loss to the landlord, but without obtaining any
redress, and on demanding the restoration of the carpet beg
and property which he bad left with him, he was coolly told
by Watson that they had no doubt been stolen by the same
persons who had robbed him of hie money, as they were
not to be found in the room where he had placed them for
safe custody. He was unable to obtaia any further ezpl..-
nation in answer to his remonstrances, and was now entirely
destitute, having been not only deprived of his money, tools,
and clothing, but also been robbed of the written cutout-
dials he bed received from Die late employers, and which
he would be cape oted to produce before he was allowed to
eater the Army Working Corps, although he bad been pro-
visionally accepted, and had passed the usual medical in-
spection.
Mr. Hemmill said that it was certainly a very bud ease,
but, notwithstanding the apparent moral culpability of the
man Watson, be considered there was not sufficient evidence

to support as indictment egsiut him as at accenory to the
robbrry. The situation of the unfortunate epplieant was
greatly to be commiserated, end he would direst Hayward,
the warrant officer' to explain the circumstacees ender
which he had lost hie vouchers of chatao.er to Sir Joseph
Paton, and present him in the meantime with a trifling
auto ft. nt the poor-box for his immediate exigencies.
