POLICE INTELLIGENCE.

ORSHIP-STREET.
William Green, a well-dressed young fellow, but who
was recognised by Alderman, the gaoler, as having been
before convicted, was charged with robbery.
Mr. Abraham Coronel, a cigar-manufacturer in Great
Alie-street, was passing through Commercial-street,
Whitechapel, abont nine o'clock on the preceding even-
ng, accompanied by a friend, when their attention was
attracted to a printed notification respecting the late
election, and on their stopping to read it they speedily
found themselves surrounded by a crowd of about a
dozen persons, among whom were the prisoner and an-
other man, who placed themselves close to them. A
wrangle or dispute was then got up by some of the
others, which led to much contusion, in the midst of
which an outcry was raised by a person employed in
the Post-office, named M•Donald, who warned them
against thieves, as he had just detected a man's hand in
his pocket. At

that ho had not been sensible of the slightest pull or
jerk. He told the prisoner he suspected he had been
trying to rob him, which the prisoner denied; and
turned his face away, but stood perfectly still himself;
the accusation had no sooner been uttered, however, than
the other man, evidently a confederate, took rapidly to
his heels, and was quickly out of sight, upon which the
witness. who had become convinced of a robbery, in-
stantly thrust his hand into his waistcoat, and disco-
vered that his gold watch had been stolen. He there-
upon seized the prisoner and held him till one of the
ward constables took him, but though the stolen pro-
perty was not in his possession, the prosecutor was
quite clear he had stolen it, and passed it to the confe-
derate when the latter escaped.
The Post-office employe M‘Donald positively identified
the prisoner, and could also identify the other man, if
taken.

Mr. IJAMMILL ordered him to be committed until that
day week for the completion of the evidence and to af-
ford the police an opportunity of taking the confederate.

LAMBETH.
As the lion. G. C. Norton was about to leave the
bench, Susannah Harding, a miserably clad but genteel
looking young woman, with a squalid infant in her
arms, was brought up in custody and placed at the bar
on a charge of illegally pawning various articles from
ready-furnished lodgings.
Mrs. Maria Matthews deposed that about three
months ago the prisoner took an apartment at her house,
5, Paget-place, Waterloo-road, when she represented
herself to be a dancer at one of the theatres, and said
her husband was at that time at Brighton. Soon after
a woman, whom she represented to be her servant, came
to live with her, and she was not aware how they,
managed to maintain themselves, but it was quite ap-
parent that they merely existed. They were, however,
in the habit of getting drunk occasionally, and while in
that state they quarrelled so violently that it required
the interference of witness or her daughter to keep them
from injuring each other. Last week witness discovered
that the sheets had been taken off the bed, and the pri-
soner at that time admitted that she had pawned them,
and promised to take them out. This she did not do, but
on the contrary, pawned various other articles since then,
and on that day, by desire of her husband, she gave her
into custody.
From the statement of the unfortunate prisoner, it
appeared that three years since, when but 15 years of
age, and while at a boarding-school in Chigwell-row,
Essex, she became acquainted with the Rev. Alexander
Gordon Bishop, a clergyman of the Church of Eng-
land, and was induced to go and live
with him. The infant she then had in her arms
was six months old, and was the youngest of two chil-
dren she had by him, and Mr. Bishop had given her a
written undertaking to provide for herself and it (the
eldest child being dead), but he neglected his promises
and payments, so that she was driven to the utmost dis-
tress, and was driven to the offance with which she was
charged through absolute necessity. In reply to the
magistrate's questions she admitted that she had taken
out a summons at this court against the Rev. Mr, Bishop,
with the intention of affiliating the child to him, but on
her attending to do so, and also to prefer a charge for a
sent for her, and on
serious assault on her person, ho
his paying down a sovereign and promising to provide
for herself and her child for the future she forgave him.
In reply to a question from Mr. NORTON, complainant
admitted it to be her impression that the prisoner had
been driven to the act by actual want.
Mr. NORTON ultimately remanded thel)r.so trr to give
time for au application being 111 1:
ado to er friends, and
might be done for the
with a view that something
unfor-
tunate creature.

FAIGIITFUL SUICIDE AT THE TAVIBTOCK HOTEL.—
A very painful sensation was caused on Thursday amongst
the occupants of the Tavistock Hotel, Tavistock-street,
Covent-garden, in consequence of the following awful dis-
covery appears that a gentleman belonging to a highly-
respectable American family had been lodging in the hotel,
and from his generally pleasing manners no one for a moment
contemplated that his intellect was impaired. At an early
hour on Thursday some surprise was created from the fact
that the unfortunate gentleman did not make his appearance
at the usual hour; some of the domestics were therefore dis-
patched to his bed-room to call him, but not receiving any
answer, the dcor was opened, when the unfortunate person
was found lying on his back on the floor, a pillow was under
his head, and the throat was severed almost from ear to ear.
A medical man was without loss of time sent for, and in the
course of a few moments two surgeons arrived, and pro-
nounced life extinct. From a mere minute examination
made of the room, there seems no doubt but the deceased
had in the first instance cut his throat whilst lying in bed,
and that he then jumped out and made his bed on the floor,
where he shortly after expired. Mr. Reid, the coroner's
officer was sent for, and he at once communicated with Mr.
Bedford, who, it is expected will hold an inquest on the body
to day. The name of the deceased could not be learned, but
it is well known that he is the son of an American doctor or
1 surgeon.
