WORSHIP-STREET.

Five respectably-dressed persons, named CUL Richard
Burdett Prather, Matthew Matthews, Francis Williams,
Richard Lair, and Mouth) Stainbrithie, were charged with
having obtained under false pretences a large amount of
3116CCIIIUICOILS property from tradesmen in different parts of
the metropolis.
Mr. Jay, from the office of the Trades Protection Society,
appeared fur the prosecution, and the court was crowded
with tradesmen and others who were anxious to prefer
charges against the prisoners.
Sarah Saul, shopwoman in the service of Mr. Edward
Watkins, a haberdasher in Norton Potwar, stated that on
the 24th of September last the prisoners Walker and May
' thews drove up to her master's door in a horse and gig,
from which the latter alighted, and, introimeing himself us
" Mr. Walker," of No. 18, Anus's-terrace, Hackney, re-
quested her to send some bonnets, mantles. and other arti-
cles upon approbation to the ladies of his family. A portion
of the goods were accordingly forwarded to that place on
the same evening, and on the following day the prisoner
Matthews again called at the shop, accompanied by three
young women of lady-like appearance, who selected three
bonnets, some mantles, and a Leghorn hat and feather, which
they desired might be sent to them at the same address. Wit-
nesslelivered the articles at the house on the Monday follow-
ing, when she received a further order for two other man-
tles from one of the young ladies, who told her that her
papa would call at the shop next day and pay for the
whole of them. lie failed to do so, however ; and, on
proceeding again to the house, she found it was shut up,
and that ail the parties had absconded.
Mr. William Norris, agent to the Rev. Mr. Moors, the
owner of the house in Anne's-terrace, stated that iu the
month of J uue last he let the premises in question to the
prisoner Walker under a written agreement for three years,
at the rent of TM. per annum ; but shortly before the end
of the first quarter he received information that he had
vacated the place, and the street-door key was soon after-
wards transmitted to him through the " Parcels Delivery
Company." At the time he offered himself as a tenant the
prisoner furnished him with a reference to a Mr. Palmer,
of Millman-street, Bedford-row ; and, on calling at that
place, lie saw the prisoner Stainbridge, who on that occa-
sion assumed the name of Palmer, and assured him that
Mr. Walkir was a highly respectable person, and that he
would find him a most desirable tenant.

A second charge was then preferred by Mr. George
Wise, a portrait painter in Islington-grecu, who stated that
in the early part of September he received an order from
the prisoner Walker to execute two family groups, com-
prising himself and his wife and three children. Ile subse-
quently waited upon the prisoner several times fur that
purpose at his then residence in Angel-terrace, Pcntonville,
and had almost completed the portraits when the prisoner
called upon him in the company of Stainbridge, and took
them away unfinished, alleging that he wished to show
them to some American friends of his who had come over
to sue the Exhibition. The prisoner requested hint at the
souse time to send fur them to his house on the following
day, but on culling there at the time appointed he found
the premises deserted.
A gentleman named Elwell, residing at Camberwell,
stated that about the 10th of August he let the house in
Angel-terrace to the prisoner Matthews, who stated his
mune to be Charles Sitnmons ; he gave a reference to Mr.
Walker, in Anne's-terrace, Hackney. On proceeding to
that place he was introduced to the prisoner Walker, who
spoke in such favourable terms of Mr. Simmons, whose
father he alleged had rented u house otitis at Chelmsford
fur upwards of twenty years, that he at once accepted him
as a tenant.

Police-cuustable Francis, N 227, stated that from informa-
tion he had received he succeeded in tracing the prisoners
on the preceding evening to a house which they had re-
cently talon in Grove Villas, Brixton, where he found the
whole of them, and took them into custody. On apprising
them of the nature of the charge, the priloner Williams
earnestly inquired if he did not think they could "square
it," at the some time producing 60111 C bonnets and other
articles which had been obtained from the witness Watkins,
and which 111,1 oofkr dat once to restore to him. having
token posscsriou of the articles in question together with a
large quantity of other property of a miscellaneous descrip-
tion which was found in the house, and a number of pawn-
brokers' duplicates, the prisoners were conveyed to the
station house.

some other cases of a sinnlar character were partially
gone into, and the priaoriers were remanded for a week.

MAItYLEBONE.
Nearly a dozen driver, of the new omnibuses running from
theMarfileArch and Hatton-garden to Tottenham-coui t- rood
fur one penny were summoned to this court and fined in
sums of 10.. and under for obstructing the street, by stop-
ping 'unnecessarily, or for improper purposes, as for chang-
ing horses.
Mr. Crawford, the originator of the reduced fares, com-
plained of the foul means by which be alleged the proprie-
tors of the old conveyances were trying to ruin the new
undertaking, and alluded to their practice of sending one
bus before and another behind the cheap vehicles, as need-
lessly filling the streets, as well asinjuring
