POLICE INTELLIGENCE.

BOW-STREET.
A dark-complexioned woman, named Elizabeth Bullard,
having the appearance of a servant, was yesterday brought up
by Inspector Bell, and placed at. the liar, before Mr. TWYFORD
and Messrs. WITHAM and RomNsost, County Magistrates,
charged with uttering a certain forged order, for the payment
of the sum of 19/. 75., with intent to defraud Mr. Jas. Meabry
of the same. In consequence of there being several other
charges of a similar nature to be preferred against the prisoner
the office was crowded with a number of tradesmen during the
investigation. The first case brought forward was for having
uttered a forged cheque, purporting to have been drawn by
Lord Duncannon, which, on being presented at the Banking-
house of Messrs. Coutts and Co., Strand, was declared to be a
forgery.
Mr. Woom.nit attended for the prisoner.
Several cases were gone into, in all of which the cheques
uttered by the prisoner were proved to be forgeries, and in-
cluding cheques purporting to be signed by Sir R. Peel, Lord
Gardner, and other Noblemen and Gentlemen. The prisoner
was committed on one case, Lut the evidence not being com-
plete on the other, she was ordered to be brought up again
in a week.

A man named William Danvers also stands charged with
being concerned in forging the cheques which were uttered by
the prisoner; but, upon the application of Gardner, the
officer, he was ordered to be emanded.

WORSHIP-STREET.
THE SHOREDITCH CHARTlSTS.—Yesterday Messrs. Rod-
land and Harris, the Churchwardens, accompanied by other
parish officers of St. Leonard's, Shoreditch, waited upon Mr.
GROVE, the sitting Magistrate, to request his assistance under
r very embarrassing circumstances. Upon the requisition of nine
inhabitant householders they had convened a general meeting
of the parishioners, to be held in the church next Tuesday
evening, for the purpose, as stated in the printed notices, of
taking into consideration the nature of recent events at Bir-
mingham, and the conduct of the Home Office and the Bir-
mingham Mag'strates in connexion with the metropolitan police
(for whose support we are rated), and to adopt such measures
as may then seem necessary for the preservation o, the right o
the people and the peace of the eripire. The requisition as at first
presented to the Churchwardens was so strongly worded that
they rejected it, but the epithets " blood-thirsty," &c., as ap-
plied to the police, having ken struck out, they signed it in
the amended form just given. They seemed to have been un-
aware that the nine requisitionists were the Secretary and
other Chartists, who have frequently of late hoisted the tri-
coloured flag in that parish, and made various unsuccessful at-
tempts at moonlight meetings and other " demonstrations."
They now learned, however, that the Chartists intend to pro-
ceed in a body to the church on Tuesday evening, and there
make a more imposing display, and feeling rather alarmed
for the consequences, they came to consult the Magistrates on
the subject. _

Mr. GitovE expressed some surprise when he found what
use it was intended to make of the church ; but. he intimated
to the Churchwardens that he could not assist them out of
their dilemma, and referred them to the Commissioners of
Police.

The Churchwardens then retired, with the intention, as it
was understood, of applying to the Commissioners.

CORONERs' INQUESTS.

SUICIDE OF A BLIND AIAN.---Yesterday an inquest was
held at the sign of the Axe, in the I-lackney-road, before Mr.
BAKER, on the body of a blind man named William Walmsley,
who had been many years in the habit of stationing himself
near the Ironmongers' Alms-houses, Kingsland-road, to receive
the donations of passers by, wh., had hanged himrelf._Verdict,
Temporary Insanity,

As regards this neighbourhood, and the south of
Yorkshire, it appears that the crops are somewhat slight
and dry, but better as you reach an ordinary level. The
appear highly promising; and the
