MANSION-Houss.—Thomas Coates, a servant of
Mr. Morley, a merchant in Broad-street, was this
day committed, for stealing certain articles of
plate, his master's property. The circumstances
which led to the discovery, arose from.a suspicion
that the prisoner had attempted the perpetration
of a crime of much' greater magnitude. The fol-
lowing are the particulars :—On the night of
Tuesday se'nn;ght, Mr. Morley and family were
alarmed by a noise and cry of murder, proceeding
front the rear of his house. The cause, accord-
ing to the atatement of Coates, was, that bearing
a noise in the ball, and in the lower part.of the
house,adjoining his bed-room, be leaped up, seiz-
ed a sword, which lay by his.bed-side, and 'ran to
the place from which the noise proceeded, and
from thence into the yard, in pursuit or two nActi
who were attempting to make their escape, and
who, he supposed were robbers. That in the
yard he was knocked down by a person. from
.be-
hind ; and before lie recovered front 'tha effects of
the blow the robbers escaped.
The attempt at robbery was evident, as the plate
.was found packed tip ; but the prisoner's account
i.was attended with suspicious circumstances The
:wall over which the robbers were stated to have
,escaped, though not absolutely insurmountable,
must have opposed a considerable obstructions :
the constable: or,officers of the night happened to
be passing at the time, and 'heard the alarm, but
saw no persons escaping, and Coates did not ap-
pear to have sustained any material injury from
the blow which be pretended to have received.
lie was therefore exandued the following clay,
before his Lordship, on suspicion of being
cites' or accomplice in the attempt At robbery.. The evidence, however, not appearing, suffi-
ciently strong, he was. remanded for further exa-
mination this day. But on aking an account of
the plate, by the family, sivt4spoons were missed,
and on investigation, it was fOutul, that Coates
had pawned [hem. This fact appearing both horn
