UNION HALL.

DOG-ST EAL Xll —Lart night, James Fleming was charged
with being on the rremises of William Mappleton in the neigh-
bourhood of Vauxhall-walk, on Sunday last, with the intent of
stealing a dog his property. The prosecutot stated that his dog
had been stolen some weeks before for the purpose of fighting,
it.returned literally torn to pieces ; the poor animal was pro.
duced, it had lost one of its ears, one of its legs was broken and its
chest appeared as ifcut open with a knife; having seen the prisoner
lurking about, and knowing him fo be a dog fancier, he watched
and caught him after getting over the wall. Mr. CHAMBERS
told the prisoner it was fortunate he did not succeed in stealing
the dog, as the law imposed a penalty of from 201. to 301. upon
the offence ; but as it was proved he had entered the premises
of Mr. Mapleton not having any business there, and not being
able to give a good account of himself, he should be committed
to Brixton for one month.

Joseph Smith, William Jarman, and John. Palmer, three
youths of promise, were brought up by Brewer, the constable
of Brixton, under circumstances of the most convincing nature.
Brewer stated, that the depredations in that neighbourhood were
enormous, not a day passed without a complaint being made.
Some houses in the neighbourhood having been recently broken
open, he succeeded in tracing the footateeps to a shed where the
three prisoners worked in a neighbouring field, and the
foot-marks particularly corresponded with the shoes wore
by the prisoner Smith. There was some wearing apparel upon
them, which there is reason to think will be owned in a few
days. Brewer stated that Smith had been only a few days out
of Brixton, and that Jarman was a noted bad character. They
were both remanded. Palmer, was permitted to go at large on
his father becoming responsible for nis appearance when called
for.

Two labouring men, named Charutler and Dburett, were
charged with having assaulted a mannamed Gaynor,: who was
in charge of some premises at Norwood, occupied by a person
named Suffolk. Chandler and Dow:sett who appeared. to have
acted under the influence ' of theit''MaSter. who •' was
• Mr. Suffolk's landlord acknowledged, having. committed the
whole of the assault, hut eltpressed. their_ contrition at hav-
ing broken the peace, conceiving they :had a right to take pos-
session of the house during Gaynor's absence. The Magistrate
(Mr. King; advised them .to reconcile matters, as they .were
working men, and not loose time and money by going to law, as
.that was a subject that required better heads than theirs to study.'
.Gaynor, who at first required 51. to compromise the afikir,
tinally agreed to take 205.: some litigious clown wile accom-
panied him had buoyed him up with the hope of taking home
101. or 15/. for his job.

On Saturday, an unfortunate young female
named Jane Harris, who resides in James-street, near the Co-
bourg Theatre, was brought up to Union-hall Office, from the
watch-house; where she had been confined all night on a charge
of robbery. A young man stepped forward, and stated that he
was the person who gave the young woman in charge, for
having as supposed robbed him of a pocket-book containing
sixteen ten pound Bank of England notes. He had since
found the property, having left it with a person who *as then
in the office. He said he would make any reparation in his
power for his mistake, and gave his name Mr. Redie • he also
said, that lie met Harris at the Dolphin, on Ludgate-hill, and
accompaied her from there in a coach to her residence, upon
his arrival, he missed his pocket-book, and gave her into
custody, A waiter from the Dolphin attended with a watch and
five and a half sovereigns which were left with his master by
the complainant who was persuaded to take care of the property
by the girl Harris. Air. Swaby, addressing Haris, 'said her
honest behaviour did her credit, and that the plea of intoxication
did not justify him in charging a woman with felony. Such
conduct as it affected the liberty of the subject, could not be
passed over by a mere apology. He had subjected himself to
an action for titbit imprisonment, and it was fortunate forhini
that the girl's circumstances and situation in life might incline
her to accept an accommodation. Although an unfortunate
girl, the Laws were framed to protect her as much as any
Dutchess in the land.
