POLICE INTELLIGENCE.
BOW-STREE7'.
CHARGE 07 CONSPIRACY.--T$E " SATIRIST" NEWS..
PAPER.-Mr. 111. Ansel!, the registered proprietor of the
Satirist weekly newspaper, and Miss S. residing
at Montagu.strcet, Montagu•square, were charged with
having, on the 18th inst., fraudulently conspired to ob-
tain money from Mr. Henry Bevan.
Mr. Ballantine appeared on the part of the complain-
ant, Mr. Hunter attending as counsel for Mr. Ansell,
and Mr. Lewis, the solicitor, for the other defendant.

Mr. Ballantire said the prisoners %ere charged under
the 6th and 7th Vic.;c.96. The complainantwas a gentle-
man of fortune, having his country-house at Twicken-
ham. The female defendant had, without the slightest
claim upon Mr. Bevan, commenced a systematic attack
upon hire. She had filled the situation of governess in
the neighbourhood of Twickenham, and had often seen
the complainant, but no intimacy whatever existed be-
tween them, except a bare recognition in passing. The
first of the proceedings commenced so far back as Sep-
tember, 1848, at which time she wrote to Mr. Bevan,
reminding him of an application she had already
made to him, that he would be her banker for the sum
of 101. This letter he did not answer, and on the 15th of
November she wrote another letter to the complainant,
asking him if it would suit his views to have his im-
moralities with a third person (meaning a married lady)
exposed to his wife and daughters, at the same time
threatening an exposure of his conduct in a well known
satirical journal, and that copies should be seat to the
different members ot.his family. Lie afterwards received
another letter from the same source, stating that the
whole affair" should be exposed to his family, unless
he consented to give the writer the money she required.
On the 31st March an article appeared in the
Satirist, in which an attack was made upon
the character of a " wealthy Lombard-street
banker," residing at Twickenham, &c., the writer
having evidently thought that the present complainant
was Mr. Bevan, the banker; but in that ho was mis-
taken. The Learned Counsel having put in several
letters from the defendants, in order to show to the
Court that they acted together, their common object
being to extort money by threats, quoted the case of
" The Queen v. Hamilton," in which Baron Rolfe ruled

Henry Bevan deposed to the facts stated by the
Learned Counsel. In cross•examinntion, the witness
said he never authorised Mr. Fintnoro to offer her any
money, but directed h►m to advertise for her address its
the morning pap no, with the view of prosecuting her.

Mr: T. Fininoro stated thatja consequence of a coin-
mersication from Mr. Bevan, after the 7th inst., he went
to the office of the journal bi question, and from thus oil

street, Stamford-street, Blackfriurs, nhere ho saw him
on the 13 h, at a rich time his attention was cull, d to
certain paragraphs contained in the SoVrisi from the
31st of March until the 7th iw.t. He told him be was
instructed by Mr. B. van to app'y to him reqeetitrg
"notices to correspondents" v 4 hen appeared in that
paper of the above dates, and to take preceedings if
any further att..cles appeered. The defendant replied
that nothing libellous bad appeared, and he would
' take care nut to publish any libel. Fie also sad
there were several letters in his possession which he
intended to publish, and that the first of the series
should appear in the next number. He then handed
witness a number, and pointed out to him an article en-
titled " The Li'e and Adventures of Captain Aaron
Smith," saying that was the form in which the publica-
tion would appear. Witness asked him if the letters
had been delivered to him by a female, and his reply
was in the negative. He also said that a female had
called upon him on the 2d inst. respecting the notice
to correspondents that had appeared on 31st March,
but as she refused to give her name he declined seeing
her. Witness then asked him if it was possible to stop
the publication of the letters ; and although he was not
authorised by Mr. Bevan to make any proposal, yet he
thought that probably he might be inchued to submit to
a little exertion in order to stop further publication ;
upon which Mr. Ansell advised him nut to have anything
to do with the parties, and having then asked him,
whether, in the event of his client being induced to en-
tertain the idea of a compromise, he (Ansell) would
be the medium of endeavouring to effect it, he replied,
" so." The defendant then promised that the publica-
tion of the letters should be postponed, and that tbey
should not appear without a previous communication
with him. On the following Monday he received the
letter produced from Bennet-street, informing him that
the first of the articles alluded to would appear in the
next work, at the same time furnishing the address of
the female defendant, and informing witness that he was
about to leave town, and would not be able to see him
again upon the subject. Witness next went to the
female's lodgings, accompanied by a gentleman, and he
informed her that he had called respecting letters she
had written to Mr. Bevan ; and en asking if she
had any letters of his in her possession, she
replied she had not, but that they were under
her control. Witness then said that Mr. Bevan might be
induced to give the 101. for which she had applied, if she
gave up the letters, with a pledge that no further mea-
sures should be taken to annoy Mr. Bevan; and he also
said, that should further annoyances cease, he thought
his client might at a future day give a further sum.
Miss Mills, in reply, stated that she considered she
was entitled to the sum of 501., upon which he promised
to communicate with Mr. Bevan, and write to her upon
the subject. Ho had previously asked her upon what.
grounds she made a demand of 104 and her reply was,
as an old friend, and that had Mr. Bevan in the
first instance acceded to her application, she
would not have written the subsequent letters
to him. When she mentioned an " old friend," it was
in reference to the letters she had received. Witilyez

Janniers said he considered it a case for the con-
sideration of a jury, the conduct of the female differ-
ing very little from that of a person who had been
transported for a similar offence. In his opinion any
magistrate would deservedly incur much Censure if he
did not send such a case before a jury.
The defendants were then fully committed to New-
gate for trial, Ansell being ordered to put in bail, him-
self iu 3001., and two sureties in 1501 each, and the
female defendant in the sum of 1001., and two sureties
in 601. each, to ,answer the charge at the Central
Criminal Court.
