POLICE COURTS.--(PKIS DAY.)

MANSION-HOUSE.

Five ragged lads, named Coombe; JPQmeen, Botha-
child, Wars, and Brotonlow, were this morning brought
before the Lord Mayor, under the following circum-
stances:

It appeared from the statements made by two City police
coasts named Hill and Twoee, that on Wednesday after-
noon they were on duty in the Poultry, and observed the
five prisoners, and, knowing them, they watched their
proceedings. One of them first went up to • van and
endeavoured to steal some sugar from it and then they
walked on a short distance and another of the
prisoners went into the shop of an optician and
was sneaking his way stealthily round the
shop towards the till. He I•lllldiscover*d and turned out.
M'Queen then went into a pastrycook's shop and brought
out a lot of tarts and buns, and the little party adjourned
to the corner of • street, where they speedily
disposed of the plunder apparently with great satiefactiori.
Having thus refreshed themselves, they started again, and
one of the prisoners put his hand into the pocket of a
boy who was walking along and pulled out a newspaper.
When the boy remonstrated with him BrownlowandWare,
who were the biggest of the party, interposed, and
began to bully the boy, and he was glad to get away from
them. The prisoners then went to the Poultry, and
Brownlow went into a clothier's shop and stole a waist-
coat, and he then joined his companions, and they were
taken into custody, but they resisted violently and at-
tempted to bite both the constables.
Partridge, the gaoler, informed the Lord Mayor, that
the prisoner who gave the name of Rothschild had been
before committed for 21 days for felony.
The prisoners were remanded, in order that some in-
quiries might be made about them.

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.
VINLEN AND Urn LANDLORD.

Rosekelly, one of the warrant officers of the court, this
morning informed Mr. Knox that, in accordance with the
ejectment warrant placed in his hand, he went on Mon-
day to No. 9, Princes-row, where he found Millen
and his three children lying on an old mattress,
almost in a state of nudity. He left word that
if Finlen did not get out by 10 o'clock the next morning
he should eject him. Accordingly the next morning
he went to the place, and found Finlen, a man lodger,
and the three children huddled up together on the
mattress. One of the children had on a very old and
ragged coat, but no trousers, and the third had not a
vestige of clothing on. He found in the room, betides the
old mattress a frying-pan and a dish, which had been con-
verted into chamber utensils. Platen ordered the children
to leave, and they did so, and went to a neigh-
bouring house, but not being taken in, they
were subsequently taken to St. James's Work-
house and left there, but last night they were taken away
by some person.
Mr. Knox said that there was no actual desertion of the
children, and he had no doubt the parochial authorities
would not have ru the children up to any person
sinless they were satisfied as to their right to do so.
There was now as end of the matter.

SOUTHWARK.
•MAITIR. LED ROBBERY OF A BURGEON TS WAYERLOO-ROAD.
Jistrick Crook, 22, and Jolts Ettalivon, well known as
being connected with a deskiemte gang of thieves infest-
ing the New-cut and vicinity, were charged with being
concerned, with others not in custody, in stealing a gold
watch and chain from the person of Joarph Harrop.
Prosecutor mid he was a surgeon, and resided at 184,
Stamford-street. About 20 minutes past 9 o'clock last
night he was in the Waterloo-road, going towards his re-
sidence. lie bad just passed the railings of St. John's
Church, when from the side of a court called La
Grande Place a man suddenly rushed out and struck
him a blow on the chest with his list. Before
prosecutor could recover himself the man dragged his gold
watch and chain of the value of IW., from his waistcoat,
and then struck him another violent blow on the jaw. He
was about to follow the man down the court, when another
one sprang out from a dark corner and struck him on the
head with a atone which be had in his hand, and nearly
stunned him. They then made oft, and he gave informa-
tion to the police. The prisoner Crook is the one who
first attacked him and stole his watch, and to the best of
his belief the ether was the man who struck him with the
stone.

Sergeant John Langley, 10 1., said he had saeertained
prisoners to have been seen near the spot just previous to
the robbery. He met them this morning in Stam-
ford-street, and followed them to the Stamford Arms, and
thence to Hattield-street. He stopped Crook, and Police-
constable 28 L the other
.prtsoner. He told them
they were wanted for a rietle Waterloo-road, when
Crook said they knew no about it, and that witness
was getting it ap for them. utor afterwards picked
out both prisoners from a number of persons, as those who
had robbed him. _ - . _ . -

The prisoners were further charged with baying robbed
a man in the Flowers of the Forest Tavern, adjoining the
Surrey Theatre, and were remanded.

DEATH PROM EXPOSURE.

INQUEST.-(THIS DAY.)

This morning Mr. Richards, deputy-coroner,
hold an investigation at the Anchor and Hope tavern,
West Ferry-road, Poplar, respecting the death from
alleged ill-treatment of Jane Hi6iguts, aged 48 years.
The case excited considerable mterest in the district, in
consequence of rumours that she had been cruelly used.
It appeared from the evidence that both the deceased
and a man with whom she cohabited were habitually in-
temperate, and that the latter had frequently used violence
towards ber by striking her with his fiats.
Dr. J. Sergeant said that when be was called to the de-
ceived he found her suffering from great debility. There
was a scar on the right cheek bone. Witness was not
then told anything about the illtreatment she had re-
ceived. The right arm and shoulder were covered
with bruise*. There was • wound on the head.
The poat•meitem appearances indicated that the deceased
was a "hard drinker." The cause of death was infiam-
nation of the lungs. Her death had been accelerated by
expaure. The blows received bad not shortened life.
The jury returned a verdict in accordance with the
evidence.

LONDON A PASTURE.—A remarkable illustration
of the forcing character of the late rains may be men in
eonie of the more retired spots in the metropolis. In
Oahley-wpiare, fnr example: Large and beidatifully green
patches of gram have sprung op to the height of two or
three inchm, so that sheep might obtain a better feed there
than could he bad a few days ago in many parts of
Regent's-park.
