BOW-STREET.

In the course of the afternoon Mr. Jardine was waited
upon by three young women of respectable appearance,
who handed him the following letter:—
" TO THE MAGISTRATES OF BOW-STREET, LONDON.
Paris, Feb. 24.
" Gentlemen,—Tbe bearers of this' letter are three
young Englishwomen, Mrs. li,ohy, Miss Goodwin, and
Miss Howard, who were engaged by a Mr. Butler, in
London, as the agent of an Englishman resident in Paris,
Darned Tucker, but who professes to be a Greek, and
passes under various names; among which are those of
the Baron Mortimer, Mr. Ticket, Mr. Deacon, and
Hatiz. It was under this latter name the engagement
was made by toe agent in London. The bearers will
detail to you all the circumstances attending their en-
gagement, their coming to France, and the conduct of
this person to them since they bad been here. Being
in extreme distress, they applied at the British Embassy
and Consulate, and means have been taken, both by my
direction and through the agency of an English profes
sional man resident here, to endeavour to obtain some
redress for the injury irflicted on these unfortunate
young women, but without success.
" I have advised them to lay before you their case on
their return to England, in the hope that the agent in
England, if an accomplice, may be punished, or, if he
be also a dupe of this Mr. Haliz, may be warned against
inflicting injury ou other persons.
‘• They have been furnished with the means of re-
turning to Englund by the English Charitable Fund.
" I have the honour to be, &c.,
" THOMAS lIICRFORD, British Consul."
Mr. JARDINE, after reading the letter, inquired what
was the nature of the agreement and its proposed dura-
tion?
A gentleman who accompanied the applicants stated
that the engagement with Mr. Butler, on behalf of Hafiz,
was that they should each receive 21. per week for dan-
cing at a theatre in Paris, adding that Butler's office
was in the neighbourhood of the court.
Mr. Butler having been sent for by the magistrate,
stated that he was a theatrical agent, and was applied to
in the ordinary way of business by the person in Paris
to make the engagement, and before the ladies signeddr

Dir. BROLTGETON (to the prisoner)—Do you wish to
v(hing in addition to your former statement? Pri-
e
say find •
boner—No, sir.
It will be remembered, that upon the first examina-
tion the prisoner alleged that his late master, Mr. Du-
four, 23, Queen Anne•street, Cavendish-square, and
upon whose prosecution for robbing him of plate he was
tried and sentenced to six months' hard labour, had re-
fusedgive him a !logic farthing out of wages due to
him upon his making application to him (Mr. Dufour),
at his chambers, for a small sum to enable him to go
i. oto the country. Mr. Dufour, having seen a report of
thli ON ill the uerospapero, was preaegt with the iWIY

of stating the facts, which he said were briefly these:
So far from his owing any amount whatever for
wages, he had paid the prisoner money in advance, and
when he (the prisoner) called upon him at his chambers,
and asked him for money to take him into the country,
he did not ;mention a blngle word respecting wages.
After he was tried and convicted, he (Mr. Dufour) as-
certained that he had not loft the service of the Rev.
Mr. Townshend in consequence of his having broken A
blood vessel, but that he had been discharged for fats
moral conduct. Mr. Dufour added that the prisoner had
formerly robbed a fellow-servant, and he (,Jr. Dufour)
being convinced that the prisoner was a worthless cha-
racter, regretted now that he had at the trial recom-
mended him to mercy. His statement as to wages being
due to him was altogether false.
Mr. BROUGHTON asked the prisoner in the usual way
if he had anything to add to the statement which he had
previously made? The prisoner—l could say more, but
for the present I shall keep it to myself.
Mr. BRoUGHTON committed him for trial for "shoot-
ing with intent to murder" Mr. Vcale.
WORSHIP-STREET.
Alfred Moseley, a young man recognised by the police,
was charged with the following burglary:—
A constable of the 11 division was on duty in Crab..
tree-row, Hackney, at an early hour that morning,
when ho saw the prisoner on the opposite side of the
road hurrying along with a bundle under his arm, which
he was manifestly endeavouring to conceal. He inns"
diately pursued the prisoner, stopped him, and de-
mended to know the contents of the bundle, but the pri.
sioner, before any inspection of them could take Place,
flung the parcel out into the road, and darted off with
such rapidity that he was out of sight in an WWl'
Upon examining the parcel it was found to contain
four valuable concertinas, six accordions, two flutes,
a fiegeolette, and other musical instruments, together
with a crowbar, or "jemmy," and other housebreaking
implements. The property was transferred to the stai
tion, and, as it obviously formed part of the produce °,
