POLICE INTELLIGENCE.

GUILDHALL.—Edward Nettleilnip was charged
with obtaining 31 copies of the New Monthly Magazine
by false pretences.
Mr. Wontoer, who appeared for the prosecutors, said
that Messrs. Chapman and Hall, of 193, Piccadilly, were
the publishers et the New Monthly Magazine. These
gentlemen, having received from the various booksellers
information as to the numbers each would require for
the month, made oti;; a list and sent it down to their
binders, Messrs. Bone and Son, of 76, Fleet-street, with
instructions to deliver to the messengers of the different
firms mentioned therein the number of books placed op-
posite their names. On the 31st of October the prisoner
went to Messrs. Bone's and asked if there was anything
for Piper, and being answered in the affirmative re-
ceived 81 copies of the New Monthly Magazine. Messrs.
Piper subsequently sent for them, when it was dis-
covered that the prisoner had had them on a false repre-
sentation.—Rcmanded.

SOUTHWARK.—Frederick Brown was brought be-
fore Mr. A'Beckett on the following charge of robbery.
William Fairchild, a partner in the firm of White andj
Fairchild, 16, High-street, Southwark, grocers and tea"
dealers, and keepers of the branch post-office, stated that
the prisoner had been in their employ as post-office clerk
for twelve months, and considerable confidence was re-
posed in him. However, latterly they had reason to
suspect his honesty. Witness accordingly marked two
half-sovereigns and three half-crowns, which he handed
to two parties to purchase postage stamps with. They
did so, and after they had quitted the shop witness
wont to the post-office desk and examined the till, when
he only found ono of the marked half-crowns. He im-
mediately charged the prisoner with robbing him, which
he at first denied, but directly afterwards he admitted
that lie had. Witness then called in a constable, and
gave him into custody, when the two marked half-sove-
reigns and the half-crown were found upon him, besides
other gold and silver, amounting to 2/. 19s.
Additional evidence having been. adduced, the defen-
dant was committed for trial.

THAMES. —Joseph. Davidson Hahn, a German,
described as a missionary, was charged with assaulting
William Neale, a police-constable, No. 367 K.
Neale stated that at about half-past twelve on Satur-
day night he was returning with two other constables
from duty at the Poplar station ; they were walking on
the kerb stone, and in single file. Defendant came up
and said—" When I require a policeman I can never
find one, but now here are you three loitering together
when you are not wanted." The defendant then rudely
pushed him into the road, causing his hat to fall off.
Witness told him they were not loitering, and that he
had no business to force him into the road. Defendant
then said they were all drunk, and proceeded to take
their numbers, adding that he would have them up be-
fore Sir R. Mayne. Defendant then gave witness a
slight kick behind ; he then followed witness and his
fellow officers, shouting and vociferating, as far as Gros-
venor-street, and when witness parted from them, de-
fendant rushed on him, seized him by the collar, and
threw him down. A scuffle ensued, and ultimately wit-
ness took the defendant to the station-house.

The witness was severely cross-examined by Mr. Pel-
ham, on behalf of the defendant. Two other constables
were then called in confirmation of complainant's state-
ment, but there was much discrepancy in their evidence,
and Mr. Yardley said it was clear that the solution of
the dispute was that the policemen were taking up the
whole of the pavement, so that the prisoner had either
to go into the road or pass between the policemen. The
police had no right to block up the whole of the pal e•
ment. He did not believe that a foreigner who was
sober would, without provocation, attack three police-
men in the manner stated, and there had been such con-
tradictions in their evidence that he should dismiss the
case.

Titus Cherry, a young man in the employ of Messrs.
Baxendale, the carriers, appeared to answer a complaint
under the Turnpike Act.
Mr. G. Dacre, clerk to the trustees of the Middlesex
and Essex Turnpike Roads, said—The prisoner passed
through the Mile-end Gate with his employers' waggon
and horses on the 24th ult., and presented a ticket given
the same day to another man at the Whalebone Gate,
between Ilford and Romford. That ticket had been
given to a man named Riglan, a carrier several miles
down the road, and would clear him at all the gates to
London, and bad been used by him ; but it would not
clear him back, as he had received a fresh load of goods
in London, and the ticket had no doubt been thrown
away. The defendant had no business with it at all, and
as this system of fraud had been carried on to some ex-
tent along the road it was determined to make an ex-
ample of the prisoner.
_ _ _

kr. Yardley fined the defendant 40s. and costs, and
ordered him to be detained in prison until a return was
made to a distress warrant on his goods and chattels.

Free Press, dated December 15, 1852 :—" Dear Sir,—
A cottager residing at Moulton has requested me to
send you the particulars of the almost miraculous cure
effected by using your ointment and pills. The sufferer's
name is Hewdle, who injured his leg about 14 years ago,
and although he was under medical treatment for weeks
together he derived no benefit. At the age of 60 another
accident happened to the already injured leg, which left
it in a fearful condition. However, by the use of your
medicines alone, his leg has been perfectly cured." Sold
