POLICE INTELL IGEN('
MANSION-HOUSE.

A sailor was brought before the 1,01:1) MAYori chargid
with having refued to pay for the hire of a boat from the
Tower-stairs to Rotherhithe.

Nash, the Waterman, of Towcr-steps, stated that the
sailor directed him to row after a steamer that was going.
down the river. Witness pulled away as far as Rother-
hithe, but could not reach the vessel. He then rowed
back, but the sailor refused to pay him six which
he considered to be his fare, which occupied his time nearly
three hours, without offerivg any remuncrati(,n at
At last Jack pulled out eighteenpenee for his accommo-
dation, and as he could not pay the whole demand, was
given into the custody of an officer.
The LORD MAYOR—HOW do you make out the charge of
six shillings. Nash—l charge for distance and the loss of
my time.
The LORD MAYOR—By your own regulations, you can-
not charge for both. You must choose one of the two.
Nash—l-am entitled to six shillings for the job.
The LORD MAYOR—Don't talk nonsense. If you
charge for time, your job is sixpence an hour.
Nash—lt's very hard I should he treated in this man-
ner. I shall charge for distance then.
A policeman stated that several of the boatmen at the
' stairs assured him that they would willingly have taken the
defendant for eighteen pence. _

The Loan AlAYon said, it was evident that the chject
was to impose upon the sailor. The distance to Rother-
hithe entitled the waterman to!eighteen pence, and the dis-
tance back to the same amount. The se:',man therefore is
to pay three shillings.
A Jew crimp, who was half drunk-, and who eyed the
sailor as if the latter had money about him, seemed to be
very much annoyed too.
The policeman stated that the crimp had fixed his affec
tions upon a 51. note, which the sailor ha,l in his posses.
sion, and had been tempted by so dalicious a bait to follow
Jack even into the Mansion llow3c.

The crimp denied that he had a sneaking regard for the
note, and loudly asserted the independence of his spirit,
and his great regard for sailors in general.
The Lotto MAYOR.—WeII, whether you were after the
5/. or not I shall take care that you shan't get it.
The crimp (in a very loud voice).—l shall defend my-
self in the presence of fifty Lord Mayors; Aye, in the
presence of the Queen herself. I'm as peci:,.!s_rnanig any
of you • •
vhe LORD MATOR.-But yiu shan't have the poor fel-
low. 5/. note, and you must not interfere with the business
of this office. Let him be removed, aud call the next case.

The crimp in retiring bellowed about the liberties of an
Englishman; and when he reached tilt cuter room, cried
that he did'ut care a d---n fur all the Lord Alayors on
earth or in hell.

The LORD MAYOR —Let him be locked up in the cage.
it will cool his anger and add to the security of the 5/.
note.

The gaoler immediately obeyed his Lordship's order,
and the cage soon softened down the ferocity of the crimp
to a tone of mild supplication, which drew shouts of
laughter from the crowd it, the outer apartment.
