MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

!Men Farrell, the young woman who personated Lady
Lake, was yesterday brought before Me. DYER for final exa-
mination, charged with shoplifting. The prisoner, during her
confinement, appeared to have suffered severely, and during
the examination she remained in a fainting state.
Mr. Ollivicre and Mr. Webb, of the Burlington Arcade,
produced proof enough to induce Mr. Dyer to commit her.
FRAUDULENT CLAIMS TO ESTATES.—It will be recollected
that on Wednesday last, Mr. Campbell, a medical man, living
in Wilton-place, was brought before Mr. DYER and Mr.
CHAMBERS, at this office, charged with stealing the map
or plan of the estate of Mr. Palmer, M. I'., of Holme Park,
Berkshire. It was then alleged against the accused that the
map had been purloined with the views of assisting a fraudu-
lent claimant of the estate of Mr. Palmer, and that a conspi-
racy had been concocted for the purpose of depriving that gen-
tleman of a portion of his property. It was also incidentally
mentioned that a great many other cases of a similar descrip-
tion had been got tab against other gentlemen, whose estates
were thus unexpectedly put in peril. The Magistrates, for
some eneaplained reason, decided upon holding the accused
to bail, hiniscif in 2001. and :wo sureties of 1001. each.
Mr. Rhodes, solicitor, of Davies-strZlet, who conducted the
case against Mr. Campbell, made a remark at the time
which the result has shown to have been a'ell founded, that
from the moderate character of the bail the case was beaten.
Yesterday Mr. Rhodes attended professionally. 11:r. Clark-
son and several witnesses came at the appointed hour .hefzpre
Mr. Dyer to proceed with the charge against Mr. Campbell.
Mr. Campbell did not make his appearance, and consequently
the amount of bail became forfeited. _ _

Mr. Clarkson, addressing Mr. Dyer, said--I am here, Sir,
in attendance with Mr. Rhodes, to gire evidence, and to
substantiate a charge of felony against a Mr. Campbell, who
was to appear here at two o'clock, and who entered into re.-
cognizances for that purpose. My client was at the time im-
pressed with a strong feeling—which had you, Sir, been im-
pressed in the Payne manner, you would have required heavier
sureties—that the smallness of the bail encouraged a course
which no doubt will he the result of these proceedings. I make
this statement in the absence of Mr. Campbell, namely, that
he, in conjunction with Butcher, a clerk in Mr. Rhodes's office,.
concurred in abstracting porn the office of an attorney (Mr.
Rhodes), and from other attorneys' offices, upwards of 100
title-deeds relating to their clients.
Mr. Da Ea—The officer produced a number of copiat Of title-
deeds found in Mr. Campbell's house.
Mr. Rhodes—One of the most gross cases in which Mr-
Campbell has been concerned is that of a poor governess whorra
he swindled.

Q UEEN- S QUA RE.
A young Irishman, whose name appeared on the police
sheet as Henry Tudor, but who subsequently called himself
E. T. Fitzgerald, son of Lieutenant-Colonel Fitzgerald, was
yesterday charged with assaulting H. Pinckard, Esq., mer—
chant, whom he decoyed by an anonymous letter into the Park,
and there struck with a stick, having, however, given com—
plainant •a stick also to defend himself. Mr. Fitzgerald was
bailed, 2001 .himself, and two sureties each in 100/.

THAMES OFFICE.
Yesterday Thomas French, a plumber's foreman, was
brought before Mr. BALLANTINE for re-examination, on a
charge of stealing wines and brandies from the St. Katherine's
Dock, where he had been confidentially employed for ter
years under the master plumber, and had access to all the
vaults and warehouses.

Mr. BALLANTINE-;as sorry the evidence did not warrant
him in sending him to the Old Bailey for trial. He convicted
the prisoner of a misdemeanour under the Police Act, and
sentenced him to imprisonment and hard labour for two months.
