curity of the works and rates.
The stock and effects of the former Company arc vested in
the incorporated Company, and the latter is made liable to
the debts and engagements of the former.
It is provided that the Proprietors are not liable beyond the
amount of their shares in the capital.

debted beyond the amount of their capital, this provision may
have the effect of relieving the Proprietors from engagements
to which they were before liable, to the prejudice of their cre-
ditors.

Cookham Bridge Bill.—The object of this Bill is to incor-
porate a Joint-stock Company for building a bridge over the

to cease.

The capital of the Compar.y is to be 5,0001., to be raised in
shares of 25/.

SUB-COMMITTRE ON PRIVATE BILLS, No. IV.
Mr. GitlißS in the Chair.
West Durham Railway—lt appearing that the Standing
Orders had not been complied with in one instance, and the
parties not being ready with their witnesses, the case was
adjourned.

Pulham (Norfolk) Inclosure—Petition read. Notices
proved, unopposed. Standing Orders complied with.
Saltash Floating Bridge—Adjourned.
Deal Pier—Petition read. Notices proved. Subscription
15,200/. Estimated expence, 18,9001. Deposit in Bank of
England, 1,6001., unopposed. Standing Orders complied
with.

Pembroke Ferry—This was a case in which the parties for
the Bill contended that the Standing Orders did not
apply on the ground that no further change was
intended them to have a steam boat instead of a common boat,
the ferry being a grant from the Crown. The Chairman dis-
covered that it was intended to increase tolls, and if it did nut
come under class No. 2, it came under the 3d general standing
order, page 15. Committee concurred in this view ; one of
the notices in December, instead of the whole being previous
to that month. Another point arose on its being confessed
that there was no subscription contract under the 1 ith standing
order, page 19; which as there could be no estimate, as there
was no land to be taken, but only a steam boat to be built ; the
ferry belonging to Sir John Owen, who was a petitioner for
the Bill. Special evidence put in that ferry was impassable
during the late severe weather, and that there was not time
to give the notice. Unopposed. Special report.
Varteg Iron Company.—Committee decided as this was a
Bill merely enabling a Company to sue and be sued, no
Standing Orders applied, though the Chairman said they
ought.
SUB-COMMITTEE ON PETITIONS (No. 1.)
Mr. SHAW LEPIIVRY in the Chair.

Metropolitan Suspension Bridgc—Petition for Bill read—
Notices proved—Unopposed—Standing Orders complied with
as to the London Gazette, but defective (by one day only in
time) as to one of the Newspapers in Middlesex.

Edinburgh Estates.—Petition for Bill read, to amend and
extend the powers of former Act—Opposed, and petition in
opposition read, from the Company of Merchants in Leith.
The ground of opposition was, that the Bill went to lower
the tolls, without the consent of the creditors, in the face of a
clause in the former Act.

A discussion arose here between the Chairman of the Com-
mittee and the Agent for the Bill, as to an alleged defect
in the notices.

It was ultimately decided that the Standing Orders had
not been complied with, the agent for the Bill having sup-
po,...d that no notices were requisite for the amended Bill.

unopposed, Standing Orders complied with.
Birmingham, Bristol, and Thames Grand Junction Railway.
—Petition fur Bill read. Bill being to alter a portion of the
line, and to make a station for such Railway at Kensington,

EXTENSIVE JEWEL ROBBERY AT Lo
CHARLEMON T's.•—• Another of those singular robberies, termed
among the police " put up," that is, a robbery deliberatl
planned, and put into execution at a favourable moment, too
place on Saturday night last, at the residence of Lord Charle-.,
mont, No. 49, Lower Grosvenor-street. Lady Charlemont
was in attendance on her Majesty on Saturday, and did not
reach her residence until about twelve o'clock at night. The
first suspicion was created on the discovery being made that
a gold watch, which ustrilly stood in the dressing-room of
Lady Elizabeth Clement was gone. The servants were ques-
tioned, and one of them declared that at a quarter past seven
o'clock that evening the watch was in its usu4l place. Lady
Charlemont, on proceeding to her dressing-room, found the
drawers in it open and ransacked. It was soon ascertained.
that property, consisting principally of jewellery, and upwards
of 2,0001. in value, had been taken away. Information was
instantly conveyed to the station-house, and Inspector
!kitting, of the C division, a very experienced unstable,
proceeded to her Ladyship's residence. Inspector Haining,
after making an inspection of the place, became satisfied that
the thief was a person apparently well acquainted with the
premises, and where the valuable property was kept, and also
that access to the house had been effected through the attic
rooms. It being too dark to pursue the investigation nt that
hour, the Inspector went away, but returned at daylight anti
then proceeded with the search. Notwithstanding a shower
of rain had fallen, which had partially obliterated the foot-
steps, sufficient traces were left to place beyond doubt the fact
of the thief having entered the house from the top. The In-
spector succeeded in tracing the marks to an empty house at
the corner of Davies-street, and five doors from Lord Charle
mont's residence. That the thief or thieves bad been in the
empty house was certain, not only from foot-marks, but from ft
broken window. A description of the missing property was
furnished to the police. It consists of a diamond necklace,
valued at sixteen hundred guineas ; four gold snuff-boxes,
two containing the freedoms of Irish cities presented to Lord.
Charlemont; gold watches, diamond rings, gold chains, anti
a quantity of Irish diamonds. Lord Charlemont is at present
in Dublin, as also is Lady Clement. Information of the rob-
bery was forwarded to both, as it is feared that the loss is not
confined to Lady Charlcmont's property, for in Lady Clement's
dressing-room the drawers bad been forced open and ransacked
also. Inspector Raining has been unremitting in his exertions
to trace the thieves, but up to the present time ho has not been
able to gain any satisfactory clue to them.

APPREHENSION OF A NOTORIOUS THIEF.—
DISCOVERY OP STOLES PROPIIRTY.—On Saturday afternoon
last, whilst a waggon belonging to Messrs. Daniel Deacon
and Sons, the tea-dealers of Cripple-gate, was proceeding
along. Oxford-street, heavily laden with chests of tea, a fellow
was observed to go behind and carry off one of the chests, with
which he hastened away through Hanway-street. Ile was
pursued, and given into the custody of a policeman, when ho
dropped the property, and tried to make his escape, but ho
was aprrebended and taken to St. Giles's station-h, we, where
be gave his name Julian Summervill. Yesterday morning he
was taken before the Magistrates at Hatton-Garden, where he
gave the same name, but he was recognized by Sergeant Ash-
ton, No. 11 G, as being Julian Randall, a notorious thief and
fence, who, about twelve months ago, resided on the 'Wood-
bridge estate, Clerkenwell, and made his escape from justice
whilst the officers were in pursuit of him. It appeared that
the prisoner carried on an extensive system of plunder,
and went about robbing carts and waggons, and had
been long suspected by the police. About twelve months
ago he was observed near Blackfriar's Road with a
truck, by a butcher, who saw him take some pro-
perty, consisting of linen, from a cart. Tho butcher
watched him to his house on the Woodbridge estate, into
which he carried the property, and he gave information to the
police, a strong body of whom proceeded thither on a search
warrant, when they forced their way in ; but the prisoner,
being alarmed, made his escape over the roofs of the houses,
and has ever since been missing. His wife was taken into
custody ; and, on searching the house, it was crammed to ex-
cess with stolen property, consisting of furniture, linen, wear-
ing apparel, watches, jewellery, and other property to a consi-
derable amount, the produce of robberies that had been com-
mitted, and owners were traced for it. The wife, after being
detained during several examinations, was discharged ; but
Sergeant Ashton, having received a clue that the prisoner had
gone to Liverpool, was deputed to go in pursuit of him, and
he traced him to various parts of the country, which he had
passed through in the disguise of a Polish Jew, wearing rings
in his ears, and that several depredations had been committed
in his route. Thu prisoner, however, eluded his vigilance,
cud he ( Ashton) returned to London without the fugitive, and
ho was rather astonished at accidentally coming in contact
Sidi him in the office. The prisoner is it determined-looking
man, with a dark visage, and wore a Polish cap, with a brown
frock-coat. Ile was identified, and said nothing in his de-
fence. He was remanded.

Yesterday morning, between five and six o'clock, Rti
two bargemen were drifting with their craft through the second
arch of Waterloo-bridge, on the Aliddlesex side, ti,ey observed
a female standing on the top of the balustrades of one of the
piers, and who was,evidently about to throw herself into the
water. The bargemen shouted to her to desist, but in an in-
stant she precipitated herself head-foremost into the stream.
On rising to the surface, and floating for some distance, the
bargemen succeeded in getting her on board their craft, and
conveyed her ashore. She was in a state of insensibility, awl
was taken by the police to the station-house in Bow-street,
Covent-garden, where medical aid was quickly procured, and
she was eventually resuscitated. She was very respectably
dressed in black ; but refused to give any further account of
herself than that she resided at 'Pulse-hill, and hail left home
at seven o'clock on Sunday evening. She is supposed to be
insane, and was detained in custody.
Yesterday morning, about twelve o'clock, a man on
horseback, name unknown, with a bundle of newspapers under
his arm, was passing the St. Mary-le-Strand Church, in the
direction of Charing-cross, when the horse slipped, and threw
him to a distance of about three yards. lie was itninediateiy
pii.ked up, and it was di,crivered that his skull was fractured.
The unfortunate man, who was intoxicated, WB4 convoyed in a
chaise-cart to Charing-cross Hospital, without any hopes of
recovery.
