LAMBETH.-8•0111.201.—J. Wood, a well .dressed,
though ruffianly-looking person, and who was said to be a
member of the swell mob, was charged with being con-
cerned, with two other desperate thieves, named Fletcher
and Newport, in stealing the deeds belonging to en estate
out of Leatherhead church on the 26th of May lost. From
the statement of Sergeant Goff, it appeared that on last
" Derby day " the prisoner, with Fletcher and Newport,
managed to make their way into Leatherhead church during
the temporary absence of some workmen employed in b 6
repairs, and carried away a cue containing the deeds of an
estate belonging to the parish. There could be very little
doubt, however, that the communion plate was the property
intended to be secured. The parties were pursued, taken, and
committed for the robbery ; but the prisoner Wood, though
included in the bill of indictment, had not surrendered to
take his Dial. Yesterday he was tried at the Old Smiley
minions on a charge of stealing a cash box containing 381. ;
but was acquitted, owing to gross prevarication of a City
policeman. Goff, who had been en the look out for the pri-
soner on his discharge at the Old Bailey, took him into cus-
tody on the former charge.—The prisoner was remanded to
a future day; but,i was at the same time admitted to bail to
