being a suspected person, and loitering in Glasshouse-street,
Regent-street, for the purpose of committing a felony.
Dankersby, 117 C, said that at a quarter to one that
morning he saw the prisoner loitering in Glasshouse-street,
neat a hoarding. He asked the prisoner what he was
doing, and he replied, "Nothing." Not feeling satisfied
with this answer ho took the prisoner to the station, when
he said that he had been concerned with some others in two
burglaries which had recently been committed, one of them
in Glasshouse-street, on the morning of the 11th. As there
had been a burglary at a public-house in the street, on the
morning of the 11th, he wished for a remand to Dinka in-
quiries.

The prisoner said the other two men had gone to Bir-
mingham and left him penniless.
Mr Tyr whitt remanded the prisoner.

THAMES.
DRUNKENNESS AMONG MARRIED WOMEN.—The first
five charges heard this morning by Mr Paget were those of
drunkenness. The offenders were :
Sarah /Cummins, with her street-door key in one hand
and market-basket in the other, hired a cab last night, and
when she alighted, she had no money to pay her fare, and
was again taken up and driven to the station-house. She
said she was a respectable married woman, on which Mr
Paget observed that it was anything but respectable for a
married woman to be riding in a cab drunk instead of
being at home. As she had paid her fare, he would dis-
charge her.
Mrs Richard Finn, the wife of a boarding-house keeper
in Old Gravel-lane, St. George-in-the-East, was charged by
Thimberley, a police-constable, No. 119 K, with being
drunk and disorderly. The officer stated that the prisoner's
husband had been once sentenced to six months' imprison.
meat and hard lab, ur by Mr Woolrych for beating a
woman, and held to bail to keep the peace towards his wife
for 12 months. The prisoner annoyed and provoked her
husband, and he turned her out of doors to prevent a for-
feiture of his recognisance.. Mrs Finn was fined ss, which
she paid. The next was a shocking case. Mary Ann
Power, with an infant in her arms, was charged with
being drunk and disorderly in Flint street, Poplar, last
night. She was making a great disturbance, and threw her
child into the road. It would have perished but for the
humanity of Floyd, a police constable, No. 441 K, who
took the child to the workhouse and its inhuman mother to
the station-house, She stated in her defence that her sister
had been on a visit and treated her. Mr Paget said the pri-
soner's conduct was most reprehensible, and she was not
fit to be entrusted with an infant. He discharged her.
Ellen Fenton, apparently a person well off, was drunk and
disorderly last night in High-street. She said she had
u.e.Ouoovau-I+vuovcV lIJOK rut`-hlFlniband and
missed him. Mr Paget remanded the prisoner for inquiries
to be made about her. Mary Ann Harner, who was stated
to be " awfully drunk," and to have been attending a
