Mr. Moore, the proprietor, this day attendel. and rated that this

to him '• that be was sum he was cornogoad, and that he wait plan-

HATTON-GARDEN.
STOLEN PROPERTY TRACT:IE-1n consequence of private in-
irritation concerning some stolen propriy, Charles Read, one of
the Row-stmt patrol, obtained a warrant to search a house=
resorted to by the most nororims characters. in the
purlieus of to. fines's. ar.d on knocking-at the room-door, hewn
refused admittance ; however, having strong reams to suppose that
the property of which he was in search, WAS in all probability de-
posited in this apartment, he burst open the door, and after a long
search, though unable. to obtain tbai of which became in quest, he
pulled from under the bed, a large picture frame richly gilt,. and
sets ral chandelier drops, which he paged to have been trokm 'robs
saute gentleman's house, and accordingly seemed the inmates*?
the room, two young Ivlluwe of very dubious character, who together
with the picture frame, sere.prialuced at this ogre on Tuesday,
and after unacrgoing an examination before the sitting Magistrate
were ordered to find bail, in default of which they were on the
same evening committed to the House °rem-nelson.

Oa Wednesday information was emir:4 at Ilfarysla-bontle.poliee
office, of a burglary and robbery having been committed in the
house of Napier htuart, Esq., of No. 11, Portman-square, and
atnomrst oth_r things stolen thereout, was a say valuable painting
by one of the old masters, the subject, an Ancient Ruin ; it was
therefore conjectured that the persons now in rustody for want of
bail, might be of the party that robbed 3lr. Stuart's house. and in
order to escape detection, literally destroyed the most valuable part
of their booty—the painting Itself.
An of irce of Mary.la•bonim office was dispatched to exam**
the frame which was found to correspond with the deacripeias or
that stolen front Mr. Stuart; a Witcher was immediately sent to
the prison, and as soon as the necessary inquiries have been made
in the places where such gentry generally bad a man for the die.
Kull tit this sort of property, they will he again brought up for es.
aminatioa.

Th;p;inting was one of exquisite touch, and valued at 7W.
It was twenty-six int.hcs by twenty.
A PETEIAN PALIPEU.--James Field, of the
Irtrivrebal age

officers, charged with asking alms in the pu'ilie streets.
The complainants stated, that he held in his hand a little beadle
of matcher, mid went from dour to door, evidently far the pupae
of exciting r.otnpassion, and receiving eleemorynary aids the
matches were only a pretext, which is yule eoniaion with pompoms
in order to evade the charge of begging.
The Magistrate expressed his rurprise that so old and infirm •
man would not prefer going to the parish, where he might snipe=
to be comfortably provided; it would be surely better than a de-
pendance on the promisctious helps of vagrancy.
The officers stated, that he bad b:en in die workhouse before, butt
that he had run away from it.

Magistrate—Then you are not to bt. pitied; if you want, it its
all your own tank.
Prisoner--I could not brie to be always cooped io there ;if they

bate no objection to remain there.
Magistrate—Then you roust be committed kw three we ka to the
House of Correction.

Prisoner - I thank you, :Fir.
John Loy!., a smutty-hooking boy, about nine years of age, was
brought up by a coottable of Clerkenwell, chargeu with souls to a
pub:le-booze yesterday moiniog, and begging_n penny. Mr. Mick
Doyle, his uncle, a respectable tinker oa Osffroaohill, attended to
advocate the cause of his ne.iy.
The boy's story was, that he came over with his mother aborts
Eve weeks ago, who wished to see some of her weld friend% on Sato
when die uncle irtdertoole to Sara him the ttade.
Itlagist-am—What made you go beggink ?
Boy—Became- I hard a Boman crying nine cakes a halfpenny,
so I thought I'd have ape .ry worth.

my mother, Molly Doyle.
Magistrate—M hut lb roar Chris-inn n one?
Boy —t th, your Honour, I don't know my ( beistinn Lanier they
wit me Johnny Doyle.
Magistrate (addressing the uncle, Mick Doyle—Pray. how long
was this boy's mother to risimin with you ?
Mick (scratching his heatl)—Firige, in truth, yuar llonotir, to
tdl God's truth, your Honour, I, can't well say, but I thinks OA%

Magistrate—Then, I suppose, aril get herself passed home
Mick—Don't be oiraid of that, your Honour, for ll\ Fireplenty of nuld kettles, broiceptoo, and fryinypans, to sel- to keep
her up on the road.
As it might be jumpin,t from %tie %Irina= into the Ere to
lengthen their vied, the Alsgoitrate dismissed the parties, advising
Mick immediately to semi his visitant borne ; for, by a leagew Tw
sidence on Saffron-hilt, the boy would probably learn other briaielee
of the tine arts besides that of tiakering, which might indocs Mot
to travel still farther from home.
