On Sa;'"urdav a well-dressed min, who gave the name of
Cha).;.es Smith, but who has, for purposes of fraud, occasion-
.ny assumed the names of Captain Cole, Captain Camph.di,
Capt. Forrest, William Prentice, and other 4, and a. woman,
)assinz as his wife, were brought bct)re Mr. CQNANT and
;fr. DvErt on a variety of charges of mendicity, Oce.
Lieutenant Trace:., the Governor of Tothill-fields, stated
hat the woman, 'N hen brought into the prison, conducted her_
'elf with sue►; violence, and appeared so rreolved to wreak
rer spite bn an infant in her arms, that he ordered the child to
ie t''.'isen from her. This was not accomplished without great
eulty; after which the woman, with a violent imprecation,
''Rid she would not rest until '6 she had his - heart out."
For this threat he had caused her to be ironed and placed in
,:he dark cell.

Horsfor(cone of the Mendieity Society's constables, in
August last, proceeded to the residence of Colonel Frederick,
13,2rkeley-square, for the purpose of apprehending the pri-
loners, who had, by fraudulent pretences twice obtained the
'rum of 2/. from the Colonel. When he laid hold of the
wlsoners they both attacked him, beat him very severely, and
we his clothes nearly from his back. The male prisoner
lade his eacape, but the woman was taken, and fully commit-
od for the offence. On searching the woman a quantity of
'uplicates were found, which led to the discovery that the
•risoners had robbed their lodgings, 6, Princes-road, Kenning_
on, and that the male prisoner had stolen a silver spoon be-
miring to the landlady, and had pledged it. The spoon was
reduced and identified, and the pawnbroker was desired 113! •
part with it, as a look out would be kept for the prisoner.
some time the search was fruitless, but lio.-sfor:l about :t

week ago met both the prgo:Aer,; neeldentally, and he took
them into custody.
Mr. Com-NT, "Oh being informed that the pawnbroker had
sold the spoon, severely reprimanded him for hr..z.ng acted
contrary to the directions he had reve;re'&
Colonel Frederick then Came fore.ard to substantiate his
charge ; but, owing to the absence of one of the fraudulent
letter!, it was found that the charge could not be supported.
The next charge was for having fraudulently obtained ;4
from Lord Portarlington. This case likec.ite fell to the
ground, in consequence of the letters not being forthcoming..
The Bench came to the determinatioo of fining the man
-51. or two months' imprisonment for the assault on 1-lor:ford,
and holding the woman to bail for threatening the Governor
of the prison.
