now much distressed from the want of employment.
The police said the mother was separated from her
husband and was much addicted to drinking.
His Lordship reprimanded the mother for training so
young a child to dishonesty, and sentenced her to 10
days' imprisonment. Commiserating the position of the
children, the two elder of whom were evidently indus-
trious girls, and had to work to supply their unnatural
mother with money to spend in drink, his Lordship
directed that they should be given 10s. with which to
meet their present necessities.

The children thanked his Lordship and retired.

GUILDHALL.
ATTEMPTED SUICIDE.— William Holder, of 27, White-
friars-street, London, 42 years of age, was charged, be-
fore Alderman Finnis, with attempting to destroy him-
self.

Police-constable 54 stated that he was on duty this
morning in Shoe-lane, about 10 o'clock, when he saw
the prisoner and his wife in an excited state, the latter
endeavouring to take a phial bottle from her husband.
Witness rendered her assistance, and conveyed the pri-
soner to the station-house, where another bottle was
found on him. Both bottles contained laudanum, and
the prisoner told him, if he took them away, he would
adopt some other means " to do" for himself.
Alderman Finnis remanded the prisoner, to enable the
surgeon of the prison to examine the state of his health.
EXTRAORDINARY CIRCIIIISTANCE.—JOILM JOhiLSOTh was
charged with stealing a purse, containing Bs. 6d., from
the person of Elizabeth Freeman, servant at the Bull
Hotel, Holborn.
Last night, about half-past 6 o'clock, the prosecutrix
was standing looking into the shop of Messrs. Meekin,
of Holborn-hill, when the prisoner stole her purse and
ran off, pursued by several persons, and was apprehended
by police-constable 232, in Hatton garden. When
searched at the station-house, the purse was not found
on him. This morning about seven o'clock, the police-
man went to Hatton-garden, and in front of a house he
found the purse with the money in it, lying across the
area grating, near the pathway. The purse was identi-
fied by the prosecutrix.
Alderman Finnis summarily convicted the prisoner,
and sentenced him to two months' imprisonment. The
purse and money was given up to the promeautrix.
FORGERY BY AN ELECTRIC TELEGRAPH CLERS.-31-or-
ris Nasle was charged with obtaining 11. 12s. 6d. from
the Electric Telegraph Company, by means of a forged
order.
It appeared from the evidence that the prisoner was
engaged in the office of the Telegraph Company, at
Lothbury, and that it was his duty to make out orders
for the repayment of surplus money deposited for the
transmission of messages, which orders were signed by
the assistant-secretary, and were payable on presentation
at any of the company's stations. On Saturday last the
assistant cashier received an anonymous letter, appoint-
ing a meeting with the writer at Tom's Coffee-house,
Holborn. He went there, and found the prisoner. After
some conversation the prisoner showed him two orders,
one signed by the assistant secretary, the other bearing
a forged signature of that officer, and aeked him if they
were both presented, if he coald pay them, and offered
him half for it. The assistant cashier said he would
consider the matter, and on Monday morning gave in-
formation to the assistant secretary, and at his request
made a second appointment with the prisoner, who then
informed him he had presented the forged order at the
London-bridge Station, which was for 11. 12s. 6d., and
had it cashed. At the prisoner's lodgings a quantity of
blank orders were found, many fictitious signatures of
the under-secretary, and one with a genuine signature
which had been obtained by the prisoner making out a
fictitious return paper, and obtained the Assistant-Se-
cretary's signature to it. The signature of the order
paid was a clever imitation of the Assistant-Secretary's
writing.
A clerk from London-bridge Station proved paying
the order for 11. 12s. 6d.
The prisoner was remanded till Saturday.
