POLICE INTELLIGENCE,
GUILDHALL.
Yesterday Sarah Saville, alias Low, apparently a re-
spectable young woman, was brought before Alderman
Wilson, charged with attempting
to commit suicide by
throwing herself off Blaekfriars-b ',l
nage.
It appeared from the evidence that about half-past
three on Monday the prisoner mounted the parapet of
Blackfriars-bridge, and was in the act of throwing her-
self from it when a young man, named Danes, rushed
forward and seized her just in time to prevent her com-
mitting the crime. He then gave her in custody.
The prisoner pleaded that she was intoxicated at the
time, and knew not what she was doing. Her husband
was at sea. She hoped the Alderman would forgive her.
Alderman WILSON said ho should have her kept in
custody until her sister, or some other person, came for-
ward to be bail for her good behaviour in future.
The worthy Alderman ordered the sum oil ss. to be
given to Danes for his prompt assistance.

EXTRAORDINARY CHARLIE OF CONSPIRACY.--Henry
Adams, a pugilist, was brought up for further examina-
tion, charged with having conspired, with other persons
not in custody, to defraud James Jackson, landlord of
the King's Head, King-street, Park-lane, of 341. 102.,
under very singular circumstances.
The case had the effect of attracting to the court a
great concourse of that class of men known as connected
with the lower grades of the .4 Fancy."
The circumstances detailed at the former examination
called forth much merriment from the way in which the
complainant, a Yorkshireraan, described the plan by
which he was taken in, and which is as follows:—
The prisoner called son the prosecutor, who was an
acquaintance, and told him he had obtained the patron-
age of a gentleman who had lately come into between
3,0001. and 4,0001., and who wished to take some les-
sons in the art of self-defence. As the gentleman would
pay liberally for accommodation, and order a bottle of
wine at each lesson, it might be worth the prosecutor's
while to find them a room. Prosecutor agreed to do so,
and the prisoner and the gentleman came, and had a
sparring bout. At the second or third visit
the gentleman brought two friends ; and, while
the sparring went on, a challenge was given
to one of the friends to fight with the gloves
the prisoner, 10/. to 301. (The friend asked prosecutor to
put down the money for him. The prosecutor did so,
and the match was made. All parties adjourned to a
public-house in Cumberland-market where there was a
larger room. The fight commenced, and before it was
concluded prosecutor Was induced to put down 25/. 10s.
more, making iu all 34/. 10s. for the friend who was glove
fighting with the prisoner. The money was taken up by
the other friend. The prosecutor seeing that the com-
batants were only shamming and fouling, demanded the
return of his money, on the plea that the whole affair
was a robbery. He
Was threatened with chastisement by
some of the party, but he would not give up his demand,
and after following the party into a public-house in
Lamb's Conduit-street, and seeing them leave him one
after the other, he prevented the prisoner from following
the same road by giving him into custody.
Set up
The defencewas, that the prosecutor betted on
his own account, and that he lost his money fairly.
Mr. Lewis, for the prosecution, applied for a remand.
—Remanded till Saturday.
CHARGE op
BERGLA.RY.—John Biggs, Michael Foy,
and Joseph Massey, were brought up for final examina-
tion, charged with having committed a burglary in
Marshall-street, and stolen a quantity of watches, two
5/. bank-notes, and other property.
John Metcalfe,
the prosecutor, a watchmaker, No.
29, Marshall-street, Golden-square, proved that his
house was robbed on Sunday fortnight of eight watches,
one gold case, two gold lockets and other jewellery, two
5/. notes, and 8/. 10s. in gold. Entrance had been ef-
fected by cutting through a panel in the shop-door. The
property was safe at twelve the previous night. After
the apprehension of the prisoners prosecutor went to
the House of Detention and saw Biggs, his brother-in-

mother in Ham-yard to put the two watches out of
the way. Foy said nothing but money was found upon
him, so they could not do anything, except. perhaps,
give him six months on suspicion. Witness afterwards
saw Massey, and Massey told him to tell Mrs. Foy to
sell the watches, in order to obtain funds with which to
fee counsel.

Police-constable Swanson, G 62, apprehended Foy,
who denied all knowledge of the robbery. Upwards of
5/. were found upon him. On tho same night appre-
hended Massey, who had a new suit on him. Witness
had previously seen all the prisoners together in War-
dour-street, dressed very shahbily.
Police-constable Moore, It 341, said he apprehended
the prisoner Biggs at Greenwich. Biggs denied the
robbery, and said he had been at Maidstone fourteen
weeks, and had only arrived the night before. Biggs
said his name was Watkins.

Biggs declined to make any defence.
Massey said Munro came to him and asked him to
say he gave Mrs. Foy the gold watch.
Foy said the elder Munro came to him and told him
if he did not tell about the watch and other things he
would do what he could for him. Munro promised to
got him a counsel.—The prisoners were fully committed.
