POLICE INTELLIGENCE—This Day.

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

REMOVAL OF HUMAN REMAINS.-THE VESTRY OF ST.
PANCRAS AND THE TOTTENHAM COURT-ROAD CHAPEL.

—Mr. Thomas Curtis, the sanitary inspector of St. Pancras
parish, applied this morning to Mr. Knox, on behalf of
the vestry of St. Pancras, for a summons against Mr.
Nathan Woolf Jacobson, of Oxford-street, for unlawfully
removing the remains of certain bodies which have been
interred in the ground attached to Tottenham-court-road
Chapel (once known as Whitfield's Tabernacle), without
the license of one of her M ijesty's Secretaries of State, as
required by the Burial Act, in respect to all places not con-
secrated.

It appears that some years ago the greater portion of the
burial ground was levelled and paved over, but a part was
lett undisturbed till lately when the persons having the
control of the place disposed of some of it to Mr. Jacobson
for building purposes. In excavating the ground for the
purpose of preparing the foundations several coffins have
been exposed to view, and a large quamtity of human re-
mains thrown up. A good deal of excitement has been
caused in the neighbourhood, more especially as in 1856 a
riot took place in the same ground through a number of
men being employed in destroying the graves with the
view of levelling the ground. The matter has been brought
before :the vestry of the St. Pancras parish, in consequence
of the complaints of the inhabitants of John-street; Totten»
ham-court-road, who feel much annoyed at the proceed.•
ing, and in consequence they instructed Mr. Curtis to
apply for a summons against Mr. Jacobson.
Mr. Knox granted the summons.
URGING A DOG TO ATTACK. A CONSTABLE.—PoIydor
Polin, a French cutler, residing at 14, Newport-market,
was charged before Mr. Knox with unlawfuily setting on
and urging a dog to attack Police-constable George Henry
Mayhew, 27 C.
Mayhew said that about two o'clock that morning he
saw the prisoner with several other persons in Danman-
street, St. James's. The prisoner had a dog of the bulldog
breed with him, and set it on an orangeman. He (Mayhew)
was called up by the man to interfere, and as soon as he did
so the prisoner got over some railings and set the dog on
him, urging it to bite him. The dog then flew at him and
bit his hand, and he had been obliged to go to the Charing-
cross-hospital to have it cauterised.
The prisoner in his defence, said the dog was playing at
the time, and flew at the constable.
Mr. Knox asked the constable whether the dog flew at
him in protection of its master, or whether prisoner set the
dog on him.
Mayhew said the prisoner urged the dog to attack him,
and he was badly bitten. _ _ _

Mr. Knox fined the prisoner 20s. or seven days in default.

• THAMES.

DEAD DRUNl.—William Hind, a labourer, was brough
before Mr. Partridge, charged with being- insensibly drunk
iu the West India Dock, Blackwatl.
John Warrington, a constable in the employ of the East
and West India Dock Company, stated that he found the
prisoner lying on one of the quays, close to the water's edge
in the West India Dock last night. The prison( r was quite
insensible, and smelt very strongly of rum, of which he had
imbibed a large quantity, and was to all appearance dead
when found. He had great difficulty in restoring the pri-
soner. He had ascertained the prisoner was at work on
board the Fusileer, a wrecked ship, which was brought back
to discharge cargo yesterday, and spirits were landed from
the vessel.

The prisoner, in defence, said he was very sorry irideed.
The rum he drank got the better of him.
Mr. Partridge—You take it like a glutton, and have
nearly fallen a sacrifice to your propensity for drink. Yuu
are fined .ss.

HIGHWAY ROBBERY.—John Grffiths, a seaman, who
appeared to have been terribly ill used, was charged with
being drunk and incapable of taking care of himself.
Archer, a police constable, No. 101 H, stated that the
prisoner was knocked down and robbed last night by two
lads *who were in custody, and would be brought up on
the charge of felony, when the drunk and disorderly cases
were disposed of. The poor fellow was asking his way
to his lodgings, and the boys, under pretence of showing
him the way, led him astray, ill-used him, and robbed
him.

Mr. Partridge regretted very much the sailor had been
ill-used and robbed. He should discharge the prisoner.
Dennis Macarthy and James Calvert, boys, were then
charged with assaulting and robbing Griffiths in Wellclose-
square last night. They knocked him down and kicked
him, and robbed him of his cap, scarf, and 3s. or 4s. in
money. The prisoners, while running away, were cap-
tured.

Griffiths said his ship would sail to-morrow.
Mr. Partridge sentenced the prisoners to two months'
imprisonment with hard labour.

WESTMINSTER.

SERIOUS ROBBERY OF A. FAMILY.—James Ryan, a
youth of eighteen, was placed at the bar charged with
stealing a garden-full of linen from the model-lodging build-
ings, Fulham-road. . _

Thomas wanks, a journeyman plasterer, with a wife and
family, said that on Friday last the linen, which had been
washed, was hung out in the garden at the rear of the
house. At about half-past seven in the evening he had
occasion to go into the garden, and then saw the linen safe.
He immediately afterwards went out, and as he did so he saw
the prisoner at the end of the entranee, who was making
some remark about the model lodging-houses to some others,
as though to divert attention. Witness thought prisoner's
conduct so suspicious that he would have gone back to
tell his wife to take the linen in, but was so pressed for
time as to be unable to do so. When he returned home at
nine o'clock he found the garden had been stripped of
this linen. Prosecutor here enumerated a vast
number of articles of clothing indispensable to the
cleanliness and comfort of a family. Last night
prosecutor saw the prisoner in company with one
of the same boys he had with him on Friday, and gave him
into custody.
Ann Consahanse said she saw two lads come from the
direction of the garden on the night the clothes were stolen.
Mary Ann Gowan said that on Friday night the prisoner
was near the prosecutor's, and asked her the way to the
model lodgings.
Prisoner—l was not there at all that night.

Wm. Hunt, 107 B—l took prisoner, and I found this
dress (not identified) tucked up in the rafters of the house
where he lives. I asked his father if he knew anything
about it, and he said ho did not.
Joseph M'Cirath proved seeing the prisoner near the
garden on the night in question. He observed them last
night and called the prosecutor.
Mr. Selfe—ls there anything known of the prisoner?
Dennis, the gaoler—He has been in custody before, but
hail not been convicted.

Prisoner—Well, I was hare, but I was not done any,
thing to.

Prisoner was remainded.

currency.

The supply of barley on sale was large, and the trade
ruled heavy, at about previous quotations.
