Hill, F division, mid about four o'clock yesterday morn-
lot the corner of Mooratreet, halliard the prisoner quer-
fig with three other women. He went up and asked
what she had in her hand, when she tried to throw away a
5/. note of the Bank of Birmingham, and to damp it under
bar foot. He also found on her seven half-crowns, and at
the station an eye-glass was found secreted on her. He
knew she had been previously convicted, and was a constant
associate of thieve'. He had since taking her into custody,
found that • gentleman had been robbed in Leicestenaquare.
He therefore wished for a remand for a few days.
The note, which was produced, has been frequently

Mr. Bead= remanded the prisoner for a week.
!Frederick JoAniptotte, of 10, Curzon -street, was re-examined
blare Mr. Berton on the charge of stealing two jewelled
bracelets of the value of 400/. at 39, Bruton-street, the pro-
perty of Mr. Charles Frederick Hancock, jeweller.
The full particulars of this mule have been already given,
and so recently, that they need not be recapitulated.
As on the former occasion Mr. Lewis, of Ely-place,
attended for the prosecution, and Mr. Wontner for the
defend.
_ _. .

Mr. Lewis, addressing the court, said that on the last ex-
amination the name of the prisoner was given Johnson ; it
should have been Johnstooe, and though the latter was the
one mourned by the prisooer, he should show that he was
entitled to neither one nor the other, as his real name was
Dimedale, that he was a solicitor, and formerly carried on
his business in Kings Arms-yard, Coleman-street, City.
Mr. William Lund, cutler, Fleet-street and Combat, de-
eel as follows know the prisoner as Frederick Dims-
dale, and never knew him by any other name. I last RAW him
in Mi. Unfortunately rye had good reason to seek him
since then. He was my solicitor, and in partnership originally
with Mr. Barred** who was afterwards succeeded by Mr.
Loyd The office minis King's Anne-yard, Coleman-street.
1 advanced Dimadale, the prisoner, 10,0001. on the mortgage
deed of as estate, to be paid back to roe by instalments, one
of which was paid to his He absconded. The prisoner, as
the mortgagee, was represented as heir-at-law to his father,
who had died intestate, which was not the fact, the property
having been devised to the wife of the deoeased, the pn-
mooer's mother, and the deed valueless.
Mr. Wonkier objected that this was irrelevant to the
charge before the court.
Emma Arnold, of 10, Curzon-stroet, Mayfair, servant to
the prisoner, deposed—On the 10th of August my muter
(the prisoner) and mistress were at home. On that evening
there was no dinner party. Some plate had been brought
to our house. It was never unwrapped from the paper. At
about 10 o'clock that night I saw some articles of jewellery
which were shown me by prisoner and his wife, but no
bracelets. (These, it will be remembered by the evidence
given on the former ocamaion, bail been pledged at an early
hour in the evening.) They left England the following
Sunday.
Mr. Lewis—Among the jewellery was there a neck orna-
ment or necklet, as it is called!
Witness—There was, sir.
Some further evidence having been given,
Mr. Woutner addressed the magistrate on behalf of the
defendant.
Mr. Sendai said it was clear the prisoner obtained the
property by fraud and falsehood, and io his opinion the
Lropmbmwas complete. The question which the judge in all
' 'ty would out to the jury would be, did he borrow
plate upon the strength of a dinner party which never took
place ; and, again, upon the strength of such false assertion,
obtain the jewellery in question ? On the settlement of the
question would depend the whole case. He must say that
the proc ohm/ of Mr. Hancock's assistant in lending the
property was, in his opinion, exceedingly wrung, but that
he bad nothing to do with further them alluding to what
be considered very condemnatory. Hs should now commit
the prisoner for trial.
IG. Lewis hoped it would be to the Coolant Criminal
Court, as it was intended also to indict him under the

transportable offenoe of not rireenctering to hi, lAtt I.-
NA

A remand was asked for by Sergeants Smith and
sou to ascertain if other cases al,ould
large quantity of duplicates found in the prisoucr's
sion on his capture.
Further remanded for a week.
