SOUTILWARK„

William Johnson, a well-dressed young man, was
charged with stealing a carpet bag, containing property of
some value, from the platform of the North Kent Railway.
One of the porters of the railway stated that on Saturday
afternoon, between 4 amid o'clock, while he was engaged
on the platform of the North Kent line, he noticed the
prisoner in the booking-office, with a light great coat on
his arm. After some little time he again observed the pri-
soner, at which period he was walking on the platform, and
he then observed him approach a spot where witness had a
short time previously deposited a carpet bag belonging to
is passenger. When the prisoner reached the place he in-
tentionally dropped the coat off his arm on the carpet bag,
and then reaching down, picked up both the garment and
the bug together, and was hastening with both
towards the gate leading front the platform when
he was stopped by the gentleman who owned it.
The owner on witnessing the prisoner walking
off with his property, went up and addressing the prisoner
sold, " That is my carpet bag you have taken." "Oh,"
said the prisoner, " I beg pardon—l've made a mistake ;"
and then making a low bow, he added, " I resign it with
pleasure to the owner, and only regret that I should have,
in the confusion of the moment, taken that which does not
belong to me." lie considered this a sufficient apology,
and turned round to walk away, when he was stopped by
one of the railway police, to whom the circumstances were
made known, and who brought the prisoner to the station-
house. The witness added that when the prisoner was
questioned on the platform as to what he was doing there,
he said that he was waiting to go by a train to Croydon;
but when searched no money was found in his possession ;
he then altered his statement, and asserted that he was
waiting there for the arrival of a train by which he ex-
pected some of his friends from the country to visit the
Exhibition.
The prisoner, who was identified as having been previously
observed lurking about the same platform on the arrival and
departure of trams, was committed.

SPORTING.
TATTERSALL'S.-310NDAT.
The current set so strong against Mukanna, so long the
leading favourite for the Cesarewitch, that from 7 to 1, laid
early in the afternoon, he declined in the first instance to
10 to 1, and finally to 15 to 1, laid to 2004, and afterwards
offered currently ! This left Darkie in possession of the
premiership; Hippolytus, against whom 20 to 1 was betted
at one time, being second lavourite at the close. Trick-
stresaTerpsichore, and Windischgrats were in some favour,
and Grand Duke was sent out of the market; in all other
respects the betting was dull and unimportant.
