street, City, was brought before Mr. Benson charged with
stealing • arse and cart, and twenty-four bags of cochi-
neal, value 600/., the property of hie employer.
Mr. Charles Young; solicitor, who conducted the prose-
cution, said he charged the prisoner with being concerned
with others in a very daring robbery, by which Mr.
Hartley would be a sufferer to the amount of over 600/.
Horse and cart robberies generally commenced about
this season, and had been generally committed with
the connivance of dishonest carmen, who left
their horses and carts with valuable merchandise,
and while they were absent taking a cup of tea or coffee,
or drinking a pot of beer, a confederate drove the horse
and cart or van away. After the goods were taken to a
receiver the horse and vehicle were left in the suburb. or
in the country many miles away. Oa Monday, the 23rd
of the present month, the prisoner was sent by his master
with ahoree and van to receive 24 bags of cochineal,
which were delivered to him in White's-row and Spioer-
street, Spitalfields. The prisoner ought to have proceeded
direct to Fresh Wharf, London-bridge, and delivered his
valuable load there ; but instead of doing so he went to a
coffee-shop in Leman-street, Whitechapel, and called for
tea and bread and butter. While there some fellow drove
the horse and cart away, and the cochineal. valued at over
6004, bad not been traced. The horse and cart were dis-
covered the same night in Stratford, EOM, unattended.
Several witnesses, including the prosecutor, were called,
who established the case as stated by Mr. Charles Young,
and it was proved that after the prisoner was informed
his horse and cart had been driven away by a stranger he
ran about wildly for a minute or two, and then returned to
the coffee-shop and finished his tea.
The prisoner made a lengthened statement, alleging that
some one took advantage of his absence and committed
the robbery. He had been for a whole week endeavouring
to trace the thieves, although his footsteps were dogged
by police detectives.
Mr. Benson said the prisoner had no occasion to care
about police detectives ff be were innocent of any com-
plicity in the transaction.
The Prisoner—Why, air, directly I heard my horse and
cart were driven away I went to the City Police-station,
in seething-lane, and was referred back to Leman-street
station.
Mr. Benson remanded the prisoner until Monday next.

CHARGE AGAINST AN INSURANCE BROKER.
Mr. Henry Haggard, insurance broker, of 7,
Clernent's-lane. was yesterday brou6t up at the Man-
sion-Mare before Alderman Sir Roibmt Carden, in cus-
tody of Detective Smart, on a warrant charging him with
having obtained from Mr. John Barker, wine merchant,
venous sums of money, amounting together to 2301.. by
means of false pretences.
Mr. Watson, solicitor, conducted the prosecution, and
briefly stated the circumstances of the case as they after-
wards appeared in the information of Mr. Barker, which
was read by Mr. Gore. In it he stated that be was a wine
merchant, carrsing on business at Nos. 22 and 23, Great
Tower-street, and that ou the 23rd of August, 1367,
the defendant called at his office and said he had
• diamond bracelet, which belonged to his wife,
of the value of 3001.. upon which he wished to
obtain an advance, but that he did not wish to pawn it.
and would not on any consideration allow it to go out of
hie family ; and he further said it was at a jeweller's,
and that he required an advance to pay the charges. Be-
lieving these statements Mr. Barker advanced him 3W.,
and on the following day the defendant brought him the
diamond bracelet, which he represented to be his wife's.
Mr. Barker then advanced him a further sum of 501..
taking the bracelet as security, and subsequently ad-
ditional sums, amounting in all to 2301.. and on the
26th February, iu the present year, the defendant mice
him a memorandum in writing, of which the following
is a copy ;—'• London, 26th February, 1868. Borr.wed of
Meters. Barker, on the security enumerated on the other
side, the sum of 2301., repayable on the 29th May. 115 A
this loan being renewed for me again for the sum of
211. 10s., and in default thereof do hereby empower
Messrs. Barker and Co. to sell the said security for their
repayment, on giving me six days' notice in writing, and
I engage to make good to them all or any deficiency.-1-1.
'haulm." The security stated was "a diamond brace-
let." On the 30th of April, 1868, one Mary Williams
called at Mr. Barker's office, and said the bracelet be-
longed to her, and claimed it. She subsequent) y brought
an action in the Court of Queen's Bmch to
recover the same, and the present defendant was
subpoenaed to attend and give evidence both
by her and Mr. Barker, and the latter saw bim on several
occasions pip! ta the trial, and informed him of the ne.
ttrisiiy of his attendance, and the charge
_that was made
against him by Mies Williams that he had raised money
on her bracelet without her authority. The action was
tried at Westminster on the 4th November, 1868, and
Miss Williamson her examination stated that the diamond
bracelet was hers, and that she had entrusted it to Mr.
Haggard to get it repaired, but had never authorised hint
to Mine money upon it. Kr. Haggard was called upon
his subpoena, but slid not answer or appear, and a ver-
dict wee found for Mies Williams for 2601., to be reduced
to one shilling upon the return of the bracelet. On the
same day, but subsequent to the trial, Mr. Barker saw
the defendant, and informed him of the result, reproech-
thir him at the maw time for not attending as • witness,
sad for having deceived him, by stating that the bracelet
was his wife's. The defendant thereupon admitted that
the bracelet sever did belong to his wife, but said he
would go at once and make arrangements to get the
=Key and repay him the amount he liad advanced upon
it. Mr. Barker, however, declined to enter into any
negotiation with him, and stated that the matter was in
the bands of his attorney.
Detective Smart deposed that a warrant for the ap-
prehension of the defendant was placed in his hands on
the I ith November, and he bad been looking for him since
then. On the previous morning he took him into custody
in Brand-street, and they went in • cab to Seething-lane
Police-station. In reply to the charge, the defendant
said it was a very foolish thing of Mr. Barker to give
him into asetedy, and that the matter might have boon
WITIMaId it he had waited • little longer.
At ibis dye We, Waters said he could not carry the
awe way Mem that day, and applied for a remand.
The Wisner ler the defense applied that the dedendant
might be admitted to bail. stating that the question of the
ownsaldp of the bracelet bad not yet Dana
whisk was • very important
_point. Re asserted tLr.vetit

at the trial, but but wee too Lis, and with regard to the
