CRIMINAL COURT,—This Day.

The October sessions commenced to-day before the Lord
Mayor, Recorder, Sheriffs, and other civic officials.
The calendar is a heavy one, and there are some serious
cases to be tried. Ono of the principal cases is that of
Abraham Isaacs, a costormonger, who is indicted for un-
lawfully and maliciously wounding John Pierce, an assis-
tant money-taker at one of the steam-boat piers, near Lon-
don-bridge. On the afternoon of the 24th of August the
complainant was attending to his duty at a ticket-box,
when the prisoner put a basket of nuts in the way of the
customers, upon which the complainant moved it with his
foot, having first asked the prisoner to do so, which ho
refused. A struggle ensued, and the complainant was
injured for life. Another case of violence is that
of John Thomas, who with two other men attacked the pro-
secutor and robbed him. A further case of violent assault
is that of Dennis Macarthy, who is indicted for violently
assaulting two young women in the Commercial-read,
Stepney. It is a serious case, but the parties were all drunk.
A man named William Shaughnessy is charged with feloni-
ously cutting and wounding his wife in the throat with a
razor, with intent to murder her. There was much bru-
tality about the case, but it is one with which a jury will
have little diffiulty in dealing. There are three or four
cases of perjury, all of them, curiously enough, having for
their defendants persons who have held reputable positions
in society. There will not be so many Mint cases as usual.
The trial of the persons charged with victimising foreigners
will, it is thought, be postponed until the November
sessions, as some important evidence from abroad is ex-
pected. The case of the Earl of Shaftesbury against his
late steward, Mr. Walters, will probably be taken on Wed-

_
nesday.
The Recorder, in his charge to the grand jury, referred
to the above cases, and then remitted them to their room
to commence their official duties.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE,—This Day,

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

THE BURGLARY AT THE EARL OF FlFE'S.—Charles
Gustaldi, alias Dubois, calling himself a wino merchant,
but refusing his address, and Joseph Newman, a cabinet-
maker, also refusing his address, were charged before Mr.
Tyrwhitt with burglariously breaking and entering the
residence of the Earl of Fife, No. 35, Dover-street, Picca-
dilly, and stealing a:quantity of jewellery, previously said
to bo of the value of £3OO, but now said to be a much

larger amount, were again brought up, a fresh charge
being preferred against them, that of breaking into the re-
sidence of the Earl of Eldon, No. 1, Hamilton-place,
Piccadilly.

Mr. Edward Lewis, of Great Marlborough-stroot, ap-
peared for the prosecution, and Mr. Hannant, the super-
intendent of the C division, attended to watch the case on
the part of the police.
The greatest interest seemed to be felt in the case, the
court being much crowded.
_ _

Mr. Lewis said his worship would remember that some
time since the metropolis was thrown into a state of great
excitement owing to a number of burglaries being com-
mitted at the residences of several noblemen. Superin-
tendent Hammond, using the greatest discretion, employed
Inspector Draper and Sergeant Cole, and the latter, a most
expert and active officer, succeeded in capturing the pri-
soner. He should give some evidence to-day, and then
ask for another remand—the case of the Earl of Fifo being
completed.

Mr. Wolfries, in the service of the Earl of Eldon, was
then called, and said that at 12 o'clock on the night of the
3d Oct. he saw the house safely secured. Shortly before 7 the
next morning he was called by the police, and found the
street door standing partly open. Ho went with the police
into the library and found the furniture disturbed.
Lydia Fisher, housemaid in the service of the Earl of
Eldon, said she went into the library on the 4th October.
The drawers were on the tea table. Mr. Farron lives in
the house. Tho initials have been picked out, but the
marks remain. A scarf produced she believed to be his,
as also a silk pocket handkerchief. A card case produced
eho believed to be the property of Lady Selina.
In answer to Mr. Collins, for the prisoner, the witDoss
said she could not say when the articles were last seen
safe.

In re-examination by Mr. Lewis, the witness said the
drawers of Mr. Farren's dressing-room were in confusion.
John Brown, coachman to the Countess of Roseberry,
139, Piccadilly, said he was in Piccadilly on the evening
of the 2nd Oct., about 7, and saw Gustaldi there, at the
end of Hamilton-place.

In answer to Mr. Collins, the witness said he had never
seen Gustaldi before that evening.
Sergeant Kenwood, 16 H, proved that on the morning
of the 3rd of October he was in Piccadilly, shortly before
one and a little later, and saw Newman each time near
Hamilton-place.

Police-qonstable 202 0 proved seeing the door of the Earl
n
in g
with the name to prisoner he
found th
of Eldon's house open—time being a quarter before seven.
Sergeant Charles Cole, C division, -who has shown the
greatest activity throughout the case, proved apprehend-
ingg the prisoner, and afterwards going to 36, Dean-street,
and in thee art room

He had, prior to apprehending the prisoner, been watching
icl p rodtlee in a
a s portmanteau belonging
the house iii company of Webb, 112 C, and had seen them
go into the house on different days.
lira. Elizabeth IPLaren, 36, Dean-street, Soho, said she
knew Gustaldi by the name of George Dubois, and he oc-
cupied the second floor back room in the house. She had
never seen Newman at the house.
Henry Dawson, 301. A, said he assisted Sergeant Cole
in taking the prisoners into custody. He took Newman,
and found on him a bag containing a " jemmy" and other

articles.
Inspector Walker, of the C division, said that on the
morning of the 4th October he went to Hamilton-place,
and examined the roof and a window leading to a closet,
and found the beading of the window had been broken
off, so as to enlarge it as to admit the body of a man
passing through. The body of a man had passed through,
and the window led to all parts of the house. In the back
drawing-room lie found a davenport had been broken, in
the centre drawing-room a desk had been broken, and in
the dining-room a cellaret and a pickle case. The drawers
of a table had been forced open, and the top of a table
forced off. In another room a drawer was forced open. Ho
found a small padlock of the outer gate had been
broken. He found the whole of the marks on the furni-
ture to correspond with the " jemmy."
In answer Mr. Collins the:witness said that the jemmy
waedpeculiar one, and he had neverseen one like it before.
Henry Morton, 63 L, said he knew the prisoner Gus-
taldi, and said he was tried at the Surrey Sessions on tho
12th June, 1859, in the name of Durand, for breaking into
a jeweller's shop. He pleaded guilty. He was convicted
and sentenced to six years' penal servitude. A former con-
viction at the Central Criminal Court for burglary was
preferred against him. Subsequently he had the prisoner
in custody, but being unable to attend owing to illness to

complete the case against the prisoner, ho was sent back
to do the remainder of his sentence, he being out on a
ticket of leave.

Inspector Draper, C division, said that on the 17th Oc-
tober he went to 3, Litchfield-street, where Newman re-
sided, and found a portmanteau (produced) locked, and
opened it, and in it found a long rope, a jemmy, small
vice, two files, a pair of tweezers, some skeleton keys,
picklocks, &c., the usual implements of burglars.
The prisoner was remanded for the completion of the
depositions.

RINGING THE BELL AT CAMBRIDGE HOUSE.—Charles
Harvey, a bootmakor, living at 38, Greek-street, Soho, was
charged before Mr. Tyrwhitt with unlawfully ringing the
door-bell atCambridge,-house, the residence of the latoLord
Palmerston.

Police-constable Reeves, 41. C, said that about 2 o'clock
on Sunday morning he saw the defendant, who was drunk,
go up to the door of Cambridge House, Piccadilly, and ring
the bell. On asking him what ho wanted, he said he wished
to know when Lord Palmerston was going to be buried.
He requested the defendant to go away, and as ho would
not, and was drunk, ho took him into custody.
_ _

The defendant said he wished to know when Lord Pal-
merston was going to be buried, for a gentleman staying
at the White Bear, Piccadilly. He rang the boll twice, and
the constable came up, and ho then asked him if he could
give him the information he required. The constable told
him he had better go away, when up came another con-
stable and said, "Oh, run him in," and then he was taken
to the station.

Mr. Tyrwhitt said he did not see why the lodge-keeper
should be disturbed at such an hour.

Tho defendant said he often weutto Buckingham Palace
et
to ask for information.

Mr. Tyrwhitt fined tho defendant ss. or four days.

THAMES.

ROBBERY BY A BARNIAN.—John Kennard, aged 17,
described as a barman, in the service of Mr. Waymond
Holmes, landlord of the Conaught Arms, Hainsby-road,
Poplar, was brought before Mr. Paget, charged with stealing
large sums of money belonging to his master.
Mr. Holmes said the prisoner had been in his service five
weeks, and yesterday afternoon, from something that had
occurred, ho stopped him as he was leaving the house, and
said, " John, sit down ; I want you." The prisoner was
very much agitated ; there was guilt in his face at once,
and he said, " What is it you want me for ? " to which ho
replied " I'll tell you presently." He sent fora police-con-
stable, and in his presence said to the prisoner, "John, you
have money belonging to me in your possession." He
said, "No, sir." He told the youth it was no use denying
it. "I know you have, and you had bettor speak the truth,
it will be much bettor for you." The prisoner then said,
" I have," and pulled out a purse from his pocket. It con-
tained £2 18s. Gd. in silver. Ho said, " That is all you
have got." Tho prisoner said, "No, it is not." Ho said,
" Where is the other ?" The prisoner said, "In my box
upstairs." Ho told the constable to go upstairs with him,
and Clark, a police sergeant, No. 40 K, wont up and re-
turned with a small box, containing 245. in silver. He
again said to the prisoner, "That is not all tho money you
have taken from me while in my service by a groat deal."
The prisoner said, "No, sir; I put £lO of yours in the
bank last Monday." He then said, " You have had more
money than that since you came into my service ; where's
the remainder." The prisoner said he spent in in luxuries
of some sort or other.

George Clark, a police sergeant, No. 40 K, was called to
the Connaught Arms yesterday afternoon. The prosecutor
said ho believed the prisoner had stolen a largo sum of
money. The witness then confirmed generally tho state-
ment of the prosecutor, and produced a sayings' bank book,
from which it appeared the prisoner had deposited £lO
there on Monday last.
Mr. Holmes, in answer to a question by Mr. Paget, said
that he had missed money daily since the prisoner had been
in his service. He had missed upwards of £25.
Mr. Paget —£s per week ; if you had not made the dis-
covery you might have been ruined.

The prisoner, who appeared much dejected, said ho had
robbed his master. The money in the Post-office Savings
Bank, and all the money taken from him and in his box, all
bolonged to Mr. Holmes. He hoped he should not do so
again.
Mr. Paget committed tho prisoner for trial.
