BO IV-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,—The bearers of this letter are three
young Englishwomen, Mrs. Roby, Miss Goodwin, and
Miss Howard, who were engaged by a Mr. Butler, in
London, as the agent (Ilan Englishman resident in Paris,
named 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 the 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 had been here. Being
in extreme distress, they applied at the Briti,h
and Consulate, and means have been tali., In both by my
direction and through the agency of an E.,glish protes
sional man resident here, to endeavour to obtain some
redress for the injury inflicted 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. Hafiz, may be warned against
inflicting injury on other persons.
They have been furnished with the moans of re-
turning to England by the English Charitable Fund.
I have the honour to be, &c.,
" THOMAS BICKFORD, 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 2/. 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 signed
under
the agreement he explained the circumstanceaersta
which it was entered into, and gave them to uundwho
t;
that he had no other knowledge of the

young

yr. Butler said their passage money was forwarded

Mr. JARDINE exonerated Mr. Butler from any blame
in the transaction, and directed that some temporary
relief should be given to the 1. appacants out of the poor-
box, hoping that they • h

Mr. littouorrrobt (to the prisoner)—Do you wish to
say tiny-thing in addition to your former statement? Pri-
sorer—Nu, sir.
it will he remembered, that upon the first examina-
tion the prisoner alleged that his late master, Mr. Du-
four, 23, Queen Anne street, Cavendish-iquare, and
upon whose prosecution for robbing him of plate he was
tried and sentenced to six months' hard labour, had re-
fused to give him a sit.gle 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
into the country. Mr. Dufour, having seed a report of )
'the case in the newspapers, was present with the view

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
wnen he (the prisoner) celled upoe him at his chambers,
and asked him for money to take him into the country,
he did not mention a single word respecting wages.
After he was tried and convicted, he (Mr. Dufour) as-
certained that he had nut left the service of the Rev.
Mr. To enshend in consequence of his having broken a
blood-vessel, but that he had been discharged for im-
moral conduct. Mr. Dufour added that the prisoner had
formerly robbed a fellow-.servant, and he (Slr. 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 ho 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. Veale.
WORSHIP-STREET.
Alfred Moseley, a young man recognised by the pollee,
was charged wide the following burglary:—
A constable of the 11 division was on duty in Crab'
tree-row, Hackney, at an early hour that morning,
when he 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 imme-
diately pursued the prisoner, stopped him, and de-
manded to know the contents of the bundle, but the pri-
soner, before any inspection of them could take Plane,'
flung the parcel out into the road, and darted off
sees rapidity that he was out of sight in an !natant.
Upon examining the parcel it was found to contain
four valuable concertinas, six accordions, two flutes,
a flageolette, and other musical instruments, together
with a crowbar, or " jemmy," and other housebreakin
11°g
implements. The property was transferred to the :
lion, and, as it obviously formed part of the produce pe
some burglary, a route-paper was gent round to the dit
ferent beats, and a short time after Caffrey, a constable
of the same division, happened to be passing the hoc

Kingsland, and, noticing his street door to be wide
