POLICI.

Matritrie-Heme.---Yesterday a boy of tt yeari
old, named Hunk,, was charged by his toaster, Mr.
Morris; a jeweller in the City, with having robbed
him of various valuable articles in the line of his
business, and some wearing apparel.
Mr. Morris had employed the urchin as an errand-
boy
not more than six weeks, and never doubted
the innocence and simplicity peculiarly typified on
his countenance. He, however, accidentally ob-
served his shirt-bosom decorated with a sparkling
diamond brooch of considerable value. This excited
strong suspicion, and he charged the boy with hav-
ing robbed him ; . which the latter, with much affect-
ed innocence, positively denied. A Peace Officer
was sent for, and the boy's box searched, in which
were found a handsome silver hunting-watch, vari-
ous fashionable brooches, ear-rings, necklaces, &c.
with some silk handkerchiefs, silk stockings, a waist-
- coat, and some books, all of which his master knew
to be his property. This discovery convinced Mr.
Morris he bad been robbed to a much more consi-
derable extent than he at first suspected ; and he
endeavoured, by every inducement of threat or pro-
mise, to elicit a candid acknowledgment of all the
fans, and of the young culprit's accomplices, but in ii
vain-. He was, consequently, obliged to bring him
before the Chief Magistrate, where he stated these
fads. The Loan MA von remanded the buy until
to-morrow, with a strong injundiun, if he hoped to
escape severe punishment, to acknowledge the full
extent of his guilt, and furnish an account of all the
articles he had stolen from his Master, and of the
manner in which he had ditPosed of them.
BOW-STREET --Yesterday a notorious street-
walker, and one of that gang of nog urnal prowlers
who usually infest the Strand and Fleet-street, was
brought before the Magistrates, Messrs. GRAHAM and
READ, charged with various frauds, by means of ut-
tering fictitious notes of real or pretended country
banks, in payment for various articles of linen drapery
and other goods, and receiving the change in good
notes, or cash. This woman, who has been long
eminent as a noted smasher in this line, was principal-
ly charged by a Mr. Thomas, a linen-draper, near Co-
ecui.ga rden, witii having urchased at his shop, about
a weeks since, some articles of linen-drapery to, the
amount of about 30s. and giving in payment a note
for 51. purporting to be of the Ipswich Hank, pay-
able at an office in St. Michael's-alley, Cornhill,
opened, as our Rustlers will recoiled, a considerable
time since, by two men named Still and Hitchins,
for the purpose of uttering the flutes of a pretended
bank at Ipswich,. and for which both were capitally
indicted at the Old Bailey.
Several other persons appeared to charge the
Pri-
soner with similar frauds, and nearly 600 pawnbro-
ker's duplicate were found upon her when taken,
for brooches, rings, watches, and various other ar-,
ticks, the whole of which, as well as the h&litious
bank notes, she-pretended to have obtained from
Gentlemen in the way of her profession. The Pri-
soner had given her address on passing the notes, at
No. i 6, Paddington-street; but on her examination,
acknowledged her real address to be in Shire-lane,
Temple-bar. Remanded for further examination.
HATTON••GARDEN.—Yesterday ThOtilaS
who droVe one of the Shrewsbury Mails for Mr.
Wellings, was committed for trial, being charged
with receiving several sums, of money from passen-
gers, for which he had not accounted to his_ master.

vitin Lovell and dna Williams, mother and daugh-
ter, were committed to the House of Correaion, for
ten days, for enticing ignorant persons to play at to-
totum, Tottenham-court-road fair, on Tuesday
afternoon.

GUILDHALL...-- Two noted charaEters, Thomas
Woad and his reputed wife, were charged before the
Magistrate with stealing several articles of house-
hold furniture and wearing apparel, a silver watch,
and other property, belonging to a poor man, named
Smith, who had employed Wood to cart his goods
to some new lodgings he had taken in Shoemaker-
row, Blackfriars j and the Prisoner thus possessed
of the property absconded without delivering it.—
A search warrant was granted by the Sitting Ma-
gistrate yesterday to examine the Prisoner's aprt-
monis, where not only all the property was found,
but some other proofs that the Prisoner was, in other
respeEis, an industrious. money-making man ; for
the Officers, in their search, found the complete
apparatus of a portable chamber mint for counter-
feiting coin, and several pieces of base money ready
for distribution by the smashers. The whole charge
being quite a family concern, both Prisoners were
taken into custody.
Alderman CURTIS, who issued the warrant to
search, yesterday, not being able to attend; the Pri-
soners were remanded for'their examination to-mor-
row.

A rumour has prevailed at Madras, which was
stated to have been received from. Pondicherry, that
an insurrection had taken place at'the .Mauritius, in
which the Slaves had followed the example of. their
brethren at Flayti ; but the report was not credited.
A Royal Tiger, measuring to feet from the head
to the end of the tail, nearly Ave feet in height,
has been killed on St. Thomas's Mount, near the
Artillery Cantonments, within nine miles of Ma-
dras, but not before it had done considerable mis-
chief; and it is said, that ariether hai made
its appearance at the same place, which is sup-
posed to be the fetuale associate of that lately de-
stroyed.
In some of the late conflicts between Cu RisTortig
and PRTION, CHRISTOPiIIeS troops were command-
ed by TOUSSAINT, a SOU,- as is said, of' the brave
Chief whose unknown fate has been a source of
merited suspicion against EtIONAPARTE. There is
reason to expect that the next arrival from St. Do-
mingo will brint an account of the complete dis-
comfiture of Pallor:, it is said that CIIRISTOriIit
has under his command more than 40,000 well-
disciplined troops, and is in possession of several
strong places. PaTtON, on the contrary, has but
few troops, and those almost entirely new recruits.
A Gentleman having undertaken to run from the
front of the Register Office, Edinburgh, to the top
of Arthur Seat, and back, in 6o minutes, he lately
started at six o'clock in the morning, and reached
the top in twenty minutes, rested and refresh-
ed himself for five minutes, and returned to his
place of starting within forty-three minutes from Ins
setting off, having gained his bet with ease seven
minutes within
,the time allotted, The morning
. was fine, and considerable bets were depending.
