POLICE INTELLIGENCE.--This Day.

MARLBOROUGH STREET.

ROBBERY AT ST. JAMES'S 'WORKHOUSE —Margaret
Parkin, a tall elderly woman, an inmate of St. James's
Workhouse, was charged before Mr Tyrwhitt with stealing
.omo table knives, the property of the guardians of St
James's parish,

The prisoner was allowed to go out of the workhouse
yesterday morning to attend her chapel, when she took the
opportunity of taking the knives away with her, and offered
them for sale at the shop of Mr Levy, Dudley-street, but
it being seen there that they bore the words " St. James's
Workhouse" upon them they were stopped, and prisoner
made off and escaped, leaving the knives behind her. In
the afternoon the assistant to Mr Levy went to the work-
house and identified the prisoner, who had returned to the
workhouse at dinner time, as the person who had offered
the knives for sale, and she was given into custody.

The prisoner said she was never in Mr Levy's shop in
her life—never saw the assistant—and never that way.
She, however, wished to be tried by the magistrate.
Mr Levy's assistant said he was positive the prisoner was
the women.

Mr Tyrwhitt said ho had no doubt sho had stolen the
knives, and committed hor for 21 days.

WESTMINSTER.

CAUGHT AT LAST.—Henry Clarke, a journeyman painter,
was placed at the bar charged with stealing a watch and
chain, value £5.
Mrs Sarah Howard stated that she was staying in
November last in the house of a Mr Turnbuck, 9, Melton-
street, Grosvenor-place, which was under repait. On the
10th of that month, between 7 and 8 in the morning, she
eft her watch and locket in a drawer in her bedroom, and
at 3 o'clock in the afternoon found it had been stolen. She
immediately came to the conclusion that one of the work-
men must have carried it off, and she accordingly commu-
nicated her suspicions to the foreman of the event. The
prisoner absconded, and was lost sight of for a fortnight,
when he was given into custody, but as the property could
not be found, and there was not sufficient evidence to jus-

tify the detention of the prisouer,he was set at large. but in
consequence of some fresh information obtained, she gave
the prisoner into custody on Saturday again upon the
charge.
Frederick Jackey, assistant to a pawnbroker, 160, Black-
friars-road, said that the wa'ch he now produced was
pawned on the day it was stolen. It was looked at, and a
fresh ticket taken upon it on the Ist inst. It was originally
pawned in the prisoner's name.

•
A police-constable said he went to Hampton-row, Wal'
worth, on Saturday night and took the prisoner into cus-
tody. He at first deniod stealing the things, but hearing
the watch was found he sai3 okbis way to the station, " I
am very sorry I did take the watch and chain, and I have
sold the chain to a Mr Jones in Gravel-lane, with the locket
which was on it.''
Mrs Howard identified the watch which was purchased
by the pawnbroker's assistant.
Prisoner was remanded, and prompt proceedings ordered
to endeavour to recover the gold chain and locket.
