POLICE INTELLIGENCE.

MANSION-HOUSE.—Edward Smith, a respectably-
dressed man, about 40 years of age, formerly a touter at
the late Mock Auction Mart, in the Poultry, was placed
at the bar before Sir R. W. Carden, charged with stealing
cigars under the following circumstances :
Mr. G. Reeve, proprietor of the City Arms Tavern,
Pepe's Head-alley, said—About three o'clock yesterday
afternoon my waiter told use that the prisoner had been
seen by a customer to take some cigars from a box that
was standing on the co-inter expo-ed for sale, three or
four different times, and hand them to persons in com-
pany with him. I immediately sent for a policeman,
when I tapped the prisoner on the shoulder and sai i to
him, "I think you have something about you that you
have not come honestly by—cigars, I beieve." He re-
plied that he had three or four in his packet. I then
asked him to have the kindness to let me see them, upon
which he put his hand in his p ;c'et and pulled ou four
loose. I tken said to him, "I think you have more."
He said he had not. However, he placed his hand in his
pocket and pulled out two more. I felt his coat pocket
from which he took these, and said, " I fancy you have
some more." He said, " You may search me if you
please." I told him that with his consent I would do
so. He placed his hand in his pocket again, and gave
me to understand he had no more. I said I was satis-
fied he had, as I could hear them rustling in his pocket.
He eventually pulled out three more. I told him that
he ought to be ashamed of himself to come into a man's
house and rob him of articles exposed for sale on the
counter, upon which he observed that it was his inten-
tion to have paid for them previous to leaving the
house, and that he had frequently done so before. On
being taken to the station-house he was searched,. when
three or four more cigars were found in his hat.
Mr. Carden—Have you any recollection of the pri-
soner being in your house before this occasion ?
Mr. Reeve—Yes, I have seen him there before.
Prisoner--I never should have left without paying for
the cigars, that was my intention.
Mr. R. Henigan, a plasterer, said—l was in the pro-
secutor's house yesterday afternoon, when I noticed the
prisoner put his hand into the cigar box, which was
standing on the counter. There were three other "gen-
tlemen" with him. He took cigars from the box several
times, and put them in his pocket, after carefully look-
ing to ascertain that the attention of the two barmaids
was directed to other parts of the bar.
George Webb, constable, Ne. 433, fully corroborated
the evidence of the prosecutor.
The prisoner was committed for trial.

lower ; in 1851 the average price was only 1/. 18s. 6d.,
the lowest throughout the period. In January, 1854,
the average price was 4/. Os. ld. ; in September it fell
to 21. 16s. 7d., and in November it rose to 3/. lls. 3d.
