hr sod Mr.Gross's Villa, Canon-
tinry•eit wire. and Mr. tiranluer, with other inhabitant. of
Northampterwterraee, lelingtou, attended at this court, for
the purpose of •olleitin.,: the a-sistau.e of Mr. Tyrwhitt,
ma I. a the following eirtainstauees.
TIo v stated tl'at on Monday evening last • balloon
asernifed from soave ganlens in the tici,thloottebood of
:anew.. mail. -hotly aft:mini*, a parachute, freiehted
with a monkey, was separated, and, deeecuiliog at a rapid
rate, it fell in the guiles of Mr. Lovelock. Immense
evils& of disorderly persous aseoulile el. besieging the homes
of applicants, awl forced an entrance, which cowed
great alarm to the ladies and other inmates. Mr.
Lieelock, jour . preseeded to the garden, to take poss..
shin of the awoke,. +WA wueimpresoued iu a cage. Ile was
immediately atta.r., d in a violent manner, and was severely
isaured by the parties who claimed the monkey and were
mellow. to obtain posses ion of it. Although this disgraceful
outrage coatinsed for three quarters of an hour, there was
sot a single ?attic...man to be seen on the spot nor to be
toured its the neighbourhood. Mr. Gardner peeling that the
race and property of himself awl neighbours were in great
sllngrT, rode off in a cabriolet to the station-hone to request
us.ietaitee. but on It return he waited in Vain for the arrival
of the police, and when the riot was over only two con-
etablee made their appearance. Applicants complained
gmerally of the absence of the police in the above ueigh-
bourhoowl, and the monkey. being let down in parachutes
to the damage and injure of their property. Several robberies
had been committed in Canonbury-square, and very recently
our lady had her p. 1.1 tpechkles taken from her nose, and an-
other lady was Nob ed of her gold watch, and hot n siugle
policeman could be found at or near the spot. In answer to a
applicants said the monkey was not attached to
Mr Idouptea's balloon, which ascended on Monday eyes-
Hy, but to a tire balloon. Such balloons were frequently
eeitt up to the &weer of the neiehliourliood.
Tjraliett could not lie: how he could asaia theta. If
she it eroperty was injured by unnnkeys beiag let down in
pm:chutes, the owner. of the balloons who profited by such
exhibitions erg re the parties to he proceeded azainst. It
was cruel in the eluviale to take up pour creatures and send
the to down a, described. With reference to any re elect en
pacttfe of the police, they ought to apply to the CUIIIIIIiI-
- of Colter to Scotland-yard.
Mr. Lovelock said that the unfortunate monkey was
*written and affrighted. The real owners offered a reward
of 5, to t eke the monkeys I. .:k •Itent, and they (appli-
cants) ware continually annoyed in thi, way. They
sh no.e I she nestristrate, and left the court, expressing their
determileatiou to apply to the Commissioners of Police.

James Buller, John !team, and 1411148 SotitA were
rhtrivil on ItPrACIOII with being in the Exhibition for the
toorpose of eomuntting a felony. M•C 111:1 vex+ alao sus-
hming stolen a eont.iining 31. 10e. in gt.Atl.

Broad, 82 L, deposed that about half-past 3 o'cloek on the
previous afternoon he was on duty at the Exhibition, in
plain clothes, wl.en he saw the prisoners, whom i.e kit
to be thieves, come out of the Zollverein department, which
at present is vers• much frequented. Th:Ly stood for a few
momenta, and then went a page age leading to the
water-closets. They all three then got close to each other,
and he saw M'Cann take something front his pocket,
and by his appearance and manner he believed he
was emptying something out with his hand. At
that time a person came out of one of the water-closet.,
and they then walked to a bench close by. M'Cann
sat down on the bench, aed took off his hat,
which he placed between his knees. Witness then
saw him take uniething out of his pocket and place in hi,
hat. lye then went up to them and asked M'Cann what he
had got there ? M'Cann looked up into his face, and said,
Oh, nothing at all." Witness then looked in his bat and
saw tile morocco puree produced. Witness then took it
from the hat, and pia it into his pocket. He then
procured assistance and took them to the station, where
they were searched, and on M'Cann was found 31. 10s., in
gold, and a gold pin; on Butler, 11. Br. Bd. in silver; and
on Smith, :is. 10d., and a Sardinian gold coin of the value
of 31. 12s. in English money. Witness questioned M'Cann
is to his possession of the pu:se, and his replies were
so equivocal that he came to the conclusion the purse
was stolen.
Several constables of thelL division proved that the whole
of the prisoners had been seen together coming out of a
notorious h nose in Ilerbert's-ouildinge, Waterloo-road, no
later than Friday last. Three former convictions were alto
proved against the prisoner Butler.
The nrieoners, who protested their innocence, were re-
manded till Saturday next.
