WORSHIP-STRIET.
Jan Jona, a tall young fallow, about 22, was charged
on remand before Mr. Newton, with having stolen a horse
and cab, No. 2,247, the property of George Slough, and
value 40/.
It appeared from the evidence that on the night of Mon-
day, the 30th ult., a cabdriver in the employ of the pro-
prietor, by name Jeffery Drain, left the cab in queetron,
which he had been driving during the day, outside a
publio-house in Phippe-sirsef, Whitechapel, while he went
inside to get some drink. Upon coming out, about WI
minutes afterwards, be found it gone, and soon afterwards
he gave information to the police, and about a quarter-past
one in the moniog of the 31st Police-oonstable
James Millward, 130 K, saw the prisoner driving
the cab down Pentouville-hill. His saspecna WA
not aroused, however, till be saw the prisoner
pull up the cab close to him by the pavement,
and, jumping down off the box, ran away. The police-
man followed and caught him, when he said be was
back to look for his whip, which he had dropped.
'irked for his badge he said he had not got one, and that
the cab was his own. He wars taken into custody and the
cab to the green-yard, where inside the boot was found a
large tarpailin with the infidels of the Great Northern
Railway on it. Prisoner, when questioned respecting it,
denied all knowledge of the tarpaulin, and the man Jeffery
Drain, who afterwards identified the cab, denied that it
was there when the vehicle was in his possession.
William Blake, s shunter at the King's.croaa station
of the Great Northern Railway, stated that on the 2nd of
January the tarpaulin was sae in their posserion, it
having previously arrived from Liverpool. Its actual
value was 50s. He could not say when it was last used,
nee when it was missed.

I[r. Newton addressed the natal caution to the pri•
softer, who had nothing to say, and he was folly committed
for trial.

HAMMERSMITH.
Albert Tilley, police-constable 380 T, who was dressed in
plain clothes, was placed in the dock, charged at the in-
sta•ee of one of the assistant police commissioners for
being drank while on duty, and with assaulting Mr. John
Blanchard, • glssecutter, of 18, Church-street, Kensington.
Mr. Blanchard stated that at a quarter past one o'clock
on Tuesday morning he was with some Mends in High-
street, Kensington, when the prisoner, who wee with •
man and woman, said, " What do you mean?" Witness
replied that he was not talking to him. He struck wit-
ness on the forehead. He told him that he should report
him, and when about halfway to the station the prisoner
detained him, and said be would not let him go. He
wrestled with him and got away. While complaining to
another constable the prisoner struck him • severe blow
on the cheek.

In reply to the magistrate, Inspector Socking said the
prisoner had been in the force a month. The inspector
also snid the prisoner was ordered to attend before the
commissioner on Tuesday, but he was too drank to go
before kin. The commissioner then directed him to be
charged. _ _

Mi... Ingham aid police constables had very large
powers given to them, and if they did not exercise their
duty with propriety the most serious consequences were
likely to arise. He War very sorry for the prisoner, who
was a Toting and inexperienced man, but he thought that
if be did not punish bun severely great complaints would
be made against him, apd it would be said that he allowed
the police to ride roughshod over the inhabitants of the
neighbourhood. The prisoner had been guilty of a double
offence, and he could not pass it over. He then sen-
tenced him to be imprisoned for seven days with hard
labour.

The Prisoner hoped the magietrate would not send him
to prison, but would indict a fine.
Mr. Ingham maid he could not. It was a very serious
offence, and an example must be made, for police con-
stables ought not to be guilty of that kind of conduct.
The prisoner, who had formerly served in the Life
Guards, and had been bought off, was then removed to
the cells.
