LOOK AFTER YOUR BACK YARDS.—CharIGS Richardson,
aged 24, and described as a labourer, of Wentworth•streer,
Whitechapel, was brought up on remand charged with
stealing sundry pieces of linen and some wearing apparel
from the back yards of houses in Market-street, Poplar
New Town.

On the night of Friday the 3d instant the prisoner, an
active fellow, entered the back yards of the houses of Nos.
3,5, and 10, Market•strcet, and stole a white shirt and
three pairs of stockings from the first, a boy's white shirt
from the second, and some clothes from the third. Al; the
articles were hanging on lines to dry. The yards or gar-
dens are only separated from each other by walls about four
feet high. On the night above named a man named George
Buckle, who occupies the house No. 5, the last one entered,
was called by his faiher, who said there was a thief in the
yard. He went there and missed some clothes, and saw
the prisoner climbing over the wall. He pursued him, and
overtook him at a foot bridge 250 yards off. The prisoner
dropped a shirt, which Buckle picked up. The prisoner
then jumped over into a yard where there are some stables,
and was lost sight of. George Martin, a police-constable,
No. 411 K, saw the prisoner running along, and carrying a
bundle. The prisoner was found in the stables where he
had concealed himself. He only had one shoe on, and he
was asked if he had lost it in the yard, to which he replied
"No, I lost it running along." At 2 o'clock in the morn-
ing Martin found the bundle which the prisoner was carry-
ing in the pursuit. It contained a blue jacket, and three
pairs of worsted stockings. He also found the prisoner's
shoe close to the bundle.

Various persons identified the property taken from the
printer and thrown away.
The prisoner pleaded guilty.
The Magistrate said he should convict the prisoner of
larceny under the Criminal Justice Act. The prisoner had
committed three mischievous robberies. The property was
of small value, but it belonged to people in humble life who
could not afford the loss. This system of purloining was
very common in the suburbs, and the poor were the suf-
ferers. He sentenced the prisoner to be imprisoned for six
calendar months, and kept to hard labour.

LADVERTISEMENT.j—HoIIoway's Ointment and Pills.—
Wrongs and their Itemedies.—When the safe treatment of
disease by these purifying preparations is so simple, and
the good results so fully known, it seems almost unnecessary
teaask the ailing to give them a trial. The ointment is in-
fallible in curing skin diseases, healing ulcers, arresting
inflammation, reducing enlargements, and removing almost
all external maladies. In all affections of the jiints, gouty,
rheumatic, and scrofulous Lttacks, by which the health of
many is daily drained away, Holloway's ointment and pills
will afford indescribable relief, and will gradually, if they
be used as recommended in the accompanying directions,
bring about a thorough and lasting cure. Both medica-
meLts are suitable for every age, sex, and condition.

Messrs Travers and Hughes, the house surgeons, until
Thursdsy afternoon, when he became low and dull, and a
change for the worse gradually ensued. At 11 o'clock in
the evening he began to sink rapidly, and although every
means that medical skill and science could adopt were re •
