LONDON SE:- bIONS—(THIS DAY.)
(liet ore the RECORDER, LORD DIAIOR, and Aldermen.)
The only but laid before the Grand Jury was one for
assault, which was found, but the defendant traversed.
KEEPING A DISORDERLY llOUSE.—Charbs Smith, of
14, Crown-court, Fleet-street, was convicted of keeping
a house of ill fame. It was proved that he has kept it
for two years.
-

Mr. Stephen*, Secretary to the Society for the Sup-
pression of Vice in the patishes of St. Dunstan and St.
Bride's, proved giving the defendant notice, but he per-
sisted in keeping the house open.
The RECORDER sentenced the defendant to pay a fine
of 25/, and to find two sureties in 251. each to keep the
peace for two years, and also to enter into recognizancea
to the same effect in thzi sum of 1001.

BOW-STREET.—(THIS DAY.)
Catherine Parker, housemaid at the Tavistock Hotel,
having been on Saturday last committed for trial upon
one charge of stealing a 5/. Bank of England note from
the portmanteau of a gentleman staying at the hotel,
was now placed at the bar, before Mr. Henry, being re-
manded on a charge of stealing another Si. note
from the portmanteau of Mr. Palmer, of Mag-
dalene College, Oxford, on Friday, the 16th of
March last, at the same hotel. It was proved
very fully that the note in question was lent to his friend
and fellow colleague, Mr. Saunderson, on Thursday, the
15th, on their arrival at the Tavistock, from Oxford.
Afterwards the latter gentleman gave Mr. Palmer his
purse to keep for him, and it was locked up in the port-
manteau. The purse thec contained the five-pound Bank
of England note borrowed from Mr. Palmer, two pro-
vincial notes for five pounds each, and several sovereigns,
but the owner could not now swear how many. Next
day he asked for his purse, and in his presence
Mr. Palmer attempted to open the portmanteau, but
could not, and was convinced that the lock had been
tampered with. It was then opened by a Smith, and on
examining the purse he found that the Bank of England
note and sovereigns had been abstracted. The provincial
notes were untouched.

After a good deal of evidence to complete the link, a
gentleman from Messrs. Stay and Mantle's, Leicester-
square, proved that the prisoner changed the note in
their house in the course of the Friday, and that she
gave a fictitious address.
The magistrate committed her for trial.

DIALOUUE ON THE NEWMARKET
HANDICAP.
The beaks have put down sweeps, Tom,
Then bet we will, says Jack,
The prophets now must tell us,
The horse that we're to back.
There's a Handicap next week,
At Newmarket to be run,
And if you would a winner be,
•
Read " Horsepick in The Sun."
Ten da3s ego he said, Fernhill
Northampton race would win
I follow'd his advice, and made
A pocket full of tin.
For Tuesday at Newmarket,
Thus reads his prophecy,
" Though many run, I'd speak
Of only the first three.
CANEzou will beat Fernhill,
Frank Butler wins the race,
And it you want a third,
Why; Hornpipe claims that place I
Yours, &c. HORSEPICK.
