AN INCIDENI! AT WATERLOO.—Of one of these
irreparable losses, my fellow-student and worthy
comrade, Lord Hay, I must say a few words. The day be-
fore the battle of Quatre Bras, Bay, who was in love with
a young lady, entrusted his secret to me. He said he felt a
presentment that he should not escape the first action with
the enemy, and giving me a geld chain for the object of
his affection, and a sword and sash for myself, we parted.
vVe met at my mother's bah on the loth June. I shook
him warmly by the hand ; in less than twelve hours he
was buried near the spot where he had fallen. Hay was
a handsome young man, fond of show and dress, and it
was partly attributable to this that he met his death.
Mounted on a splendid charger, called Abelard, and
decked out in a fancy uniform, he was shot early in the
action, by some straggler belonging to the enemy, who
evidently took him lei a superior officer. Stray ge to say,
his presentment came true in two respects. First, he met
an early death; and secondly, as he anticipated, no trace
of him or his prop,rty remained. His servant, a most
faithful fellow, lost his baggage; and his family, to whom
he was endeared by ties, not alone of consanguinity, but of
love, did not possess the slightest relic of the departed young
hero. I remedied this, as far es lay in my power, by pre-
senting the sword to Hay's brother, the late Lord Erroll,
and his sash to his sister. A few months afterwards, I
gave into the hands of a young end beautiful girl the chain
that had been entrusted to me, and received her thanks and
those 'of her parenis fur having thus faithfully executed be
commission of my old comrade.—Lord W. Lennox's Remi-
niscence*,

POLICE INTELLIGENCE—This Day.

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

EXTENSIVE ROBBERY OF JEWELLIIRY.—George Upson,
address refused, and who described himself as a jeweller,
was brought before Mr. Tyrwhitt by Sergant Thomas, of
the Detective Department, Scotland-yard, charged witch
stealing from No, 23, Portland-place, a large quantity of
jewellery, of the value of about £2OO, the property of Mrs.
Kingdon and others.

Jane Cousins, in the service of Mr. John Galsworthy,
23 Portland-place, said—l went to bed at a quarter to 11 c
the 2d July, and saw that one of the boxes in my room lit ,d
been turned out. The box belonged to Iliss Watson, ar td
had been brought up into my room, It had been brokt 11
open and only a few letters lett in it. I went down stair s,
and a constable was sent for. The trap-dour on the top of
the house bad been torced open. A person could get to LI to
trap-door from Charlotte-street.

Mary Bishop, also in the service of Mr. Galswortlky,
said—About a quarter of en hour before the articles were
missed, I saw he property safe in Miss Watson's, the pro-
perty being in a jewel box. The jewel box produced be-
longs to another lauy, Mrs. Kingdon, and had also been
broken open. It contained watches, chains, &c.
At this stage of the case Mr. Wontuer, jun., attended for
the prisoner.
Miss Harriett Watson said—ln the box which had been
broken open there were several articles of jewellery be-
tonging to my sister, and in a drawer belonging to me there
were a watch, two pairs of earrings, and a number of other
articles. The property belonging to we was of the value of
about £6O, ana that belon,iug to my sister Annie about the
same amount. My sister's name is Annie Kingdon, the
wite of the Rev. George Kingdon.

144 E—At 10 minutes past 11, on the night of 2d July,
I was called to 23, Portland-place, by one of the servants,
and on going to the top room round a box broken open lying
on the servant's bed.. I searched every room in the house
but found no one. I then went on to the roof of the house,
and in the gutter 1 found the box produced, broken open,
and lying in the gutter. I could. find nu footmarks, and
the inspector and sergeant made a further search.

by Mr. Tyrwhitt—A person could get to the trap-door
from other houses.

Sergeant Wheeler. E division—l assisted in searching
the premises, and on the leads of one of the houses i to'jnd
a " jetnuiy," and in comparing it with the marks on' the
box 1 bound it to curreqund.

6ergeant Franklin, 20 E.---On the morning of the 3d,
about, six o'clock, I went to Charlotte-street, Portia nd-
place, and remained till half-past eight, uhs.rloute-street
being at the sack of Portland place. I then went to 53,
Charlotte-street, and on to the roof of the house. On
going to the corner of Devonshire-street, No. 57, I fou.nd
several slates broken. I found the outer trap door open,
but the inner "me fastened. I sent a constable down to
open, and then I found in the room, as I had also found on
the roof, marks of naked feet, and then made a further
search, and found footmarks from No. 62 to the house
where the robbery took place in Portland-place.
By Mr. I.yrwhitt—l was enabled to trace the footmarks
clearly, there having been no rain lately. I traced the foot-
marks over 32 houses in all.

Mrs. Annie Eliza Newman, a widow, residing at 62,
Charlotte-street, Portland-place. I let prisoner two rooms
furnished about five weeks back--the two top rooms—one as
a bed room and the other as a sitting room. He occupied
the rooms till the 2d July, when he lett without notice,
and owing me four days' rent.

By Mr. Tyrwhict--Did any one live in the rooms with
him?

Witness—No, sir. The last time I saw him he was
coming out of the house at 11 at night. He had nothing in
his hands, but I can't say whether he had a bulky appear-
ance or not.

A servant at 60, Devonshire-street, Portland-place, a
house between 62, Charlotte-street, and 'A, Portland-place,
said—On the 26th of June, at night, I saw a man pass the
parapet window, stooping down. He was going in the
direction of Portland-place. I think the prisoner is the
same man. I called out, and asked what he was doing. I
picked him out this morning from several others. After I
called out to the prisoner Le went back to Charlotte-street
again.

inspector Williamson, of the detective department,
attended to watch the case.

Prisoner was committed formally.
THE CABMAN AND HIS FARE.—A STRANGE FANCY.—
Mr. Charles Harvey, bootmaker, 18, Broau-street, Golden-
square, but lately living at 16, George-street, Grosvenor-
square, and who said he was bootinaker to the Prince of
. .

Wales, was brought before Mr. Tyrwhitt by O'Shaugh-
nessy, one of the %arrant officers, who took him into custody
at two in the morning with some difficulty, the summons
served on him having failed to induce him to attend the
court., charged with refusing to pay his cab tare of 16s.
James Tarrant, a cab-driver, said—On the 30th of June
last I took up the defendant in Portland-place and drove
aim to Buckingham Palace, Marlborough House, Shep-
herds-bu-lf, and back to a bootma,er'a in Pall-mall. From
Pall-mall 1 drove him to 16, George-street, Grosvenor-
square, where he stopped some time and brought out a box,
wnich he told me to be very careful with, as the contents
were very valuable. I said, " The box is very light, and it
can't be valuable," and on lifting up the lid I totind the
box empty. The defendant then told me to chive to Porto-
bello-road, near the Royal Oak, where he was going to see
his nephew. He then told a man to look after the horse,
and wished me to have some refreshment, but did toe pay
for it, and told the roan to ci me with us. I then took the
defendant to Regent-street and then to Duke. street. He
told us to wait, and we waited a long time, and on afterwards
going to 16, George-street, being anxious about my fare.
I found the defendant upstaif s asleep. On asking for my fare
the defendant said, " Oh take a chair, and when my mis-
treas comes in she will pay you." I told the defendant I
wanted 16a. for eight hours' driving, and left. What made
it worse was that I had no money with me, it being my
first fare.

Mr. l'yrwhitt—The defendant must pay the amount,
and, as the cabman has been here three finites he will have
to pay in a, dition Ils. 6d.

The defendant, who appears to have a great fancy fur
riding in cabs, and not seuttng with the 'drivers, paid the
amount ; and as he was leaving the court he was again
taken into custody for not paying a cabman, named Not •
tingham, his tare of 7s. 6d. Tais he settled by paying the
man 16s.
