POLICE IYTELLIGEIVCE.

MANSION-HOUSE.—Various contributions having
been a&enowledged for the emigrants' fund,
Sir K. W. Carden, in handing in his list of subscribers,
said—l think it incumbent upon me to state that,
although the public' have come forward liberally upon
this oceiteion, I regret to be obliged to observe that the
sum at present contributed is quite inadequate to the
g-eat oUject of sending the emigrants to their respective
destinations. I hope that, under such extreme circum-
stances, involving the very existence of nearly 200 of our
fellow-creatures, into the case of every one of whom strict
inquiries have been made, resulting advantageously to
their characters, the energetic aid of the affluent
and humane contributors to the great charities of the
metropelk will be exhibited in a more unquestionable
shape. I hope and believe that those powerfd advocates
of undeserved distress who may now be in different parts
of the country enjoying the blessings which a boun-
tiful Providence has placed at their command for cha-
ritable distribution, and who have upon so many occa-
sions shown that the power has been gratefully received,
will not at this moment forgot the poor emigrants who
have lost all their honest eernings in the struggle to ob-
tain in a distant land the means of preventing them from
being a burden on their native country.

BOW-STREET.—SamueI Alien, a Jew, was placed
at the bar, before Mr. Jardine, charged with obtaining
goods to the value of nearly 1,0001. from various trades-
men by false pretences.
It appeared that Allen, having become the tenant of a
house in Bow street, adjoining the police station, repre-
sented that he was about to open it as a casino. Builders
and decorators were employed to adapt the premises ac-.
cordingly, arid orders were given, chiefly to foreigners,
to supply the rooms with mirrors, chandeliers, massive
furniture, marble tablets, figures, and other sculpture,
&c. By stating that he had obtained a license to open
the premises as a house of entertainment and dancing
saloon, and by advancing a few pounds in one or two
cases, he succeeded in getting the goods into his pos.
session ; but he had no sooner accomplished this object
th in his efforts were directed to the disposal of the
same goods, in various quarters, for whatever amount be
could obtain for them.

Police-constable 27 N, who had been endeavouring to
trace the property, was returning through the Lower-
road, Islington, on Saturday afternoon, when his
eye happened to alight upon the prisoner and his wife,
who were taking refreshments outside of a tavern.
Mr. Lawrence Levy, the prisoner's solicitor, com-
plained that his client had been locked up since Saturday
upon no legal charge. It was a mere affair of debt and
credit, and if people thought fit to trust his client with
their eyes open, they must abide the consequences.
Mr. Jardine said the question was, whether the goods
were supplied upon the faith of Allen's representation
that he had got a licence to open the house, which
was not the fact. His worship then remanded the
prisoner till Saturday, intimating that he would accept
bail if proper securities could be produced.
The prisoner was committed in default.
