place, went out for the purpose of going straight to her
own apartments, when she was followed by Smith, who
pulled her down upon the pavement and beat her re-
peatedly with all her might upon different parts of the
body. The other prisoner then came up And attacked
her in a similarly brutal manner. She called

SOUTHWARK.

EXTENSIVE PLUNDER BY SERVANTS.—job: 57teenma'n,
a carman, and Thomas Roulce, under warehonsemt6; iri
the employ of Messrs. Jeremiah Piicher and Co., mer-
chants, A.lorgan's-lane, Tooley-street, were brought be.
fore Mr. A'Beckett, charged with robbing the firm to a
great extent.
The porter in the prosecutor's employ said that yi.-stcr•
day morning he was cleaning the warehouse r..4d inuer
office shortly after seven o'clock, when the younger rri-
roner, who was under warehouseman, in whom great
confidence was reposed, came into the latter place,
where there was about 23,000 of gold leaf in parcels.
He removed some of them to the counter, hut at that
time he had no suspicion about his honesty, as he fre-
quently removed property in the course of business.
After Roake had removed the gold, he went out, as wit-
ness thought, to breakfast, but he returned again and
went to the counter. He then went out again, and on
the managing clerk coming to the warehouse he told
him what he bad seen, when the gold leaf was counted
and 1,000 missed. Witness went to the counter where
he bad seen Roake go to shortly before, but the gold was
not there. A few minutes afterwards he saw Roake
speaking to the carman, who bad the horse and cart
at the door ready to go away with a load, when he im-
mediately suspected both of them, and on seeing a con-
stable approach he told him of his suspicion, and in one
of the nose bags at the tail of the cart they found two
packets of gold which were missed. Both prisoaers
were given into custody.

Mr. James Maule, managing clerk to Messrs. Pitcher
said, when he came to the warehouse yesterday morning
he was told by the last witness what he had seen, and
after the carman was given into custody he called the
younger prisoner Roake into the counting-house, and
told him he had better say all he knew about the rob.
bery as it would be better for him. Roake then said he
would make a clean brelsst of it, and then he admitted
that six weeks ago he had stolen three hundred weight
of tin, two thousand of gold and the thousand found in
the nose-bag. Witness then gave him into custody.
ge had always, prior to that, a very high opinion of
Roaio, who had access to the private offices on all o
oca-
sions where property was lying about of considerable
value.
police-constable 14d M said ho took Shaman into
ustody, when he said some ono must hare put the gold
c
intd the n,?se-bag to injure him.
Sergeant Squire, 17 M, said he took Roake into cue.
tody on his 0 wn confession.

Mr. A'Bed, ett said there could be no doubt an ex-
tensive system ,of robbery had been carried on by the
prisoners, and as .the prosecutors would require some
time to make furtltar inquiries he should remand them
for a week.
