The Lord Chief J ustic•—The prisoner was brought before

THE POLICE COURT&

MANBION-HOUSE.
Mr. Slater, the Mary of the City of London Hospital
for Dimities of *gawk COMM* Wald the Ocoaamp-
tioa Hospital, Victoria Park, melted upon the Lord
Mayor for the purpose of .Wmowied&g the remiS cd
• sum of money by the hospital, in muumuu", of the ririo-
nitpeomt maryde by him • short titimeback with reference to its
li position.
Xr. Water stated that Mr. Goodman, the chief clerk, had
verykiadly that moreing hooded him the sum of 240&,
which had hermmerived hove • number of charitable indi.
vides& in aid of the fonds of the hospital, and be was de-
sired by the committee to express their thanks to the Lord
Mayor for the permierion he had granted to make known
the difficulties under whit& the hospital was labouring,
through the medium of this court. The hospital was is
debt, and the receipt of this mosey would be a very greet
easistanee.
The Lord Mayor he was afraid from what he bad
beard that the hospital was still in need of seristenee
Mr. Shier said there was still a deficiency of 1,7004, sod
at this orison of the year there was sure to be an incises
of mylioations for relief.
The Lord Mayor said he should always be ready to lend
his andstaaes to such an useful institution as this, and he
bed ao doubt thegentkman of the press would make public
the strimemit that had been made.
Edward Corrine, agedl2, Bdcard Green, aged 13, and Ade
Ants, aged 11, were brought up in custody of Sergeant
Baker, of the City polioe, aarged with being unlawfullyis
pcneassion el • &milder et mutton that had been stolen.
It sppiried from the etridemee of the *Meer that he met
ril the primness walking together near Leadtinhall-
and Green was carrying • wicker basket, which he=
to the girl. Upon examining the basket, he found that it
contained • shoulder of mutton, and when he asked them
where they got it from, they said they saw a man steal two
shoulders of mutton in Leadenhilletreet, and he gave them
one of them not to say anything about it. (A laugh.)
The Lord Mayor askeds the officer whether be had disco-
vered who the shoulder of mutton belonged to
Baker said he had made inquiries in the market, and bad
ameriabied that legs and shoulders of mutton wen con-
stantly stolen on Saturday night, but be ocatkl oat get say
ens to identify the one that was found is the peeromies
of the prisoners.
The Lord Mayor asked the prisoners what they bad to say
in mower to the charge?
Overlain, who volunteered to be spokesman, said that they
maw a man steal two shoulders of mutton is the market
from • butcher's shop, and he saw they were looking at him
and offered them this one not to say anything about it.
The officer said that from the inquiries he had made be
believed that the girl bad stolen • dusk it.. on Saturday
night, which she sold for a shilling, and when he starched
her he found Is. N. upon her. The boy Curtain, when he
took him to the station threw • glove behind the door ;
under this glove he found sd.
The Lord Mayor inquired If anything was known of the
priesmers?
The father and mother of the boys and the mother of the
girl
eeds,tood forward and said they were very bad children
and they could do nothiag with them. Curtain, it
appeared, belonged to Aldgate parochial school, and Green '
to the City of London Union sobooL The girl had also been
In a reformatory, but hod run away. The parents said they
were very anxious to have them placed in some school or
other establishment, as they could do nothing with them.
Mr. Goodman, the chief clerk, observed that it was Don-
NNW for parents to talk of not haring cootiel over children
al the age them were, and it would be very unreasonable to
call upon the public to educate and support them.
The Lord Mayor said he thought the ooly thing be could
do was to sentence them to 21 days' bard labour, and he
hoped this would be a warning.
Yr. the proprietor of a large eating establish-
ment ha dit, wee summoned to show muse why be
to pay.*
*reward to which certain firemen were
:teeter bringing their engines to his house upon the
occasion of a fire in his chimney on the 26th of October last.
It appeared from the evidence of two of the fire brigade-
men stationed in Watling-street, named Charles Brown and
, Alfred Tozer, that they went to the defendant's premises
I on the day in question and found the soot in the chimney
ignited, and it was necessery to throw several pails of eater
down the chimney before the fire could be extinguished.
The firemen alio stated that in their opinion the flue in
question was a very dangerous one, and there had been
three fires in it daring a very few days, and they said that
it required to be swept every day.
Mr. Billington said he had done all he could to prevent
mischief, and he complained of the inconvenience occasioned
to him to him business by the firemen coming to his house,
when, as he stated, there war really no fire. He did not
call any WithOSINIS, however, to support his statement.
The Lord Mayor said he could not disbelieve the evidence
of the firemen, and he made an order for the payments of
21. 7s. He at the same time advised Mr. Billington, if this
really was • dangerous flue, which it certainly appeared, to
be, to have it altered, tube would be continually annoyed.
Thomas. X`Corrity, • boy, aged 16, was charged under
the follizz
circumstenoes.
It ap from the evidence of Baldwin and White, two
of the City police, that on Sunday afternoon they roost ved in-
formation that some person had been seen running along
the roof of No. 84, Lower Thames-street, and on their
Mugs theren

packedru up ready for

mises, arid found the primmer concealed in • cask. He bad
no shoes on, and they were found on the top of one of the
houses. He accounted for being where be was by saying
that he bad gone there with s man to sleep on the Saturday
night, and he denied all knowledge of the lead.
The Lord Mayor said he had no doubt whatever upon the
evidence that the prisoner was in the place where he was
found for an unlawful purpose, and he sentenced him to be
imprisoned and keptto hard labour for three months.
The Lord Mayor requested the press would acknowledge
on his behalf, the receipt of • donation of flee guineas from
the Saireoers•Compsay, toe the poor-box.
