ANYTHING BUT FRIENDLY.—Justane Remschell was
brought before Mr. Paget, charged with stealing a gold
watch, gold chain, and two gold lockets, valued at £l7, the
property of Augusto Meuzler.
The parties are young men, and natives of Germany.
The evidence of the prosecutor was interpreted by M.
Wintjen, and he stated that he made the acquaintance of
the prisoner at Hahn's Hotel, in America-square, and that
they had frequently met there. Last Tuesday fortnight
the prisoner visited him at his lodgings, No. 10, Little
Prescott-street, Whitechapel. He was in a lower room of
the house washing himself, His gold watch, gold seals,
gold chain, and gold medals (lockets), and a knife were on
the table in the room. There was also a sovereign and ss.
or 6s. in money. He went upstairs to put on his waistcoat,
and when he came down azain his watch and appendages
were gone,and his money
was gone. The prisoner was gone
too. The prisoner was his hiend, but what he did was any-
thing but friendly.

Frederick Hunt, of the Borough of Southampton police,
No. 20, said he arrested the prisoner in that town yesterday
afternoon, and found upon
him two pawn tickets, one
related to a watch only, the other was the duplicate of the
watch and appurtenances pledged in the Waterloo road.
He also found a knife on the prisoner.
The prosecutor--That knife belongs to me. The gold
watch and all the things with it belong to me. The pri-
soner used to come to Hahn's Hotel daily to see me. This
is anything but frendly.

The prisoner who held down his head and was in a very
dejected state, said he had no defence to make. Ho was
committed for trial,

FALL OF A FLOOR WITII SIXTY PERSONS.—
During the progress of a sale at Barton, near Hull, on
Monday, the flooring gave way, and the company, 60 in
number, were precipitated to the kitchen beneath, a distance
of 9 fear. While the floor was breaking one person held on
by a chest of drawers, and after some minutes was able to
drop in safety. A second caught hold of the window ledge,
and escaped with only a few bruiecs. °theta, however,
sustained serious injuries, one gentleman having a com-
pound fracture of the leg, another injury to the spine, and
several others severe lacerated wounds.
CHILDREN ATTACKED BY RATS.—At Tewkes-
bury during the nights of last week the children of
Alfred Smith, marine store dealer, in Smith's-lane, were
twice attacker; in their beds by rats. On one occasion an
infant 18 months old was severely bitten, and on the
other two older children were awakened from sleep, and
their father, alarmed by their cries, found them bitten in
different parts and bleeding profusely, Some adjoining
cottages have lately been taken down, and the newer to
the Avon is near at hand, which accounts for the pre.
sense of the vermin in Smith's house.-11.1anokster
