POLICE INTELLIGENCE.

MAYsiox-Housr.—A short time ago a person of das'ting
appearance, named Lindo, who drives his gig. called at the
shop of Mr. Dulin, the koldsmitn, of Cornhill, and ordered
some articles of plate. lie gave a check upon his banker for
•he amount, which was instantly paid. lie afterwards
visited Mr. Dulin's shop for the same purpose, and his
deck was honoured with equal punctuelity. This course gra-
dua ly led to less ceremonious dealings, and Mr. Linda
got considerably into debt for expensive articles of plate
and jewellery, which were no sooner received by him than
they were converted into money at the pawnbrokers'.:..-
Being at a loss in what manner to obtain any more of
Mr. Dulin's property upon credit, he went once more to the
shop. He entered in a hurry, said that he. had a friend who
was in want of a valuable snuff-box, and requested Mr. Dulin
to tie: him have one of the handsomest to t•h iv/ to his friend. A
positive promise was made by him to return with the box, if it
did not suit his friend's taste, or with the price of it (35 gui-
neas) if it did. The snuff-bt x was, under those circumstances,
put iwo his possess'on, huttbe friend to whom he went to exhibit
it was no other than a pawnbroker with whom it was pledged. As
soon as it was discovered that the box had been pawned, a war.
rant was applied for in Middlesex to apprehend Mr. Lindo for a
felony. The Magistrate however did not think that the offence
amounted to that, but issued a warrant against him for having Un-
lawfully pawned the property. This warrant was executed-by the
officer whobrought the prisoner to the Mansion-house. At the de-
sire of the other party the prisoner was remanded from day to
day ; hut it was asserted by the attorney for the prosecution that
the offence was a felony, and in all probability Lindo would
have been committed on that charge, had he not contrived to
redeem the snuff-box. On the last day he was brought up, his
Solicitor said that Mr. Lindo never contemplated anything dis..
honest, to prove which Mr. Dulin had been actually put in pos-
session of his property that morning. The Lorin Marcia hav-
ing asked whether any person appeared against Lindo, and no
answer being given, said, without making any comment, " Let
the-prisoner be discharged."
CHRISTIAN EVIDENCE SOCIETY.—The LORD MArOR
took occasion to state, that he had received several letters, com-
plaining that measures were not taken to prevent the meeting
of a Society, called the Christian Evidence Society, in which
blasphemous discussions often took place. his worthy prede-
cessor had, he knew, received communications to the same ef-
fect. Now, he admitted that the irreligious conduct of the per-
sons who promoted and supported the iniquitous objects of the
Society was disgusting in the extreme; but he considered that
they carried about them an unfailing antidote, and he felt con-
fident that the truths of Christianity would be in no danger from
the efforts of the Society in Cateaton.street, whose occupation
was too contemptible to do any mischief.

GUlLDHALL.—.Yesterday William Smith, who stands
charged with stealing a large quantity of flour sacks, was re-
examined. The evidence was completed, and went to shew
that he was present, and the Foreman of the Mill at Merton,
when the sacks in question were sorted out for cutting,
were cut, weighed, and put in a cart by the man, and that
he received the produce of the sale, 41. 10s. Some pieces of
sacks were identified as the property of Messrs. Fell and Co.
of Bankside, and Messrs. Bell and Fuller, of Maidehead_
Mr. Fuller, however, admitted he could not swear the sacks
had been stolen. Mr.f Wood, who appeared as Solicitor for
the prosecution, contended he had made out a case for com-
mittal, inasmuch as the legal possession of the sacks had
never been parted with by the persons whose marks they bore,
by sale or otherwise; and the prisoner had nevertheless appro-
priated them to his own use, cutting them up as waste, and re-
ceiving the price they fetched. This conversion was in law a
stealing. Mr. Humphreys, for the prisoner, insisted there
could be no felony unless it was proved that it caine out of the
prosecutor's possession in a felonious manner, and that nobody
had presumed to say. Mr. Alderman Ansley said, he had
made up his mind to commit the prisoner, but would remand
him, merely that the evidence might be drawn out.

3:IA111.130110MM - STItEET. MYSTEIIIOI7S C111C17141-
STANCE.—Yesterday two servant girls, named Margaret Ker-
ring and Ann Bradky, were charged at this office on suspicion
of exposing the body of an infant child, the cause of whose death
was considered extremely suspicious. A watchman observed them
walk down Upper Montague-mews, Montague-square. They
had a muWand a bundle in their arms at the time. Ile followed
them down, knowing that it was not a thoroughfare, arid asked
them what they were doing? They returned, and on heir coming
to the top of the mews, he observed a bundle lying on the step
of a clOor. He conceived that the prisoners had put it there,
and he examined it, and found it was a dead cnild, wrapped in
a shawl. He took the prisoners into custody.—The prisoners
denied all knowledge of the child. A surgeon, who examined
the child, said it had sustained no violence, and a female, who
searched the prisoners, said neither of them had recently given
birth to a child.—The girls were discharged, and they were di-
rected to attend the Inquest to be held on the child's body.

IRELAND.—The valet -of Mr. MARTIN
went before Mr. Rawlinson,at Marylebone office
yesterday, and informed him that he applied on
Sunday for leave to visit. Mr. Ireland, but was
refused. Mr. Raw Nilson told hint that visitors
were not admitted on a Sunday, and diri:cied
him to renew his application day.—At the
same office yesterday, a person naw. d Cavalier,
applied for au order to see Mr. Ireland, as he
believed him to be the person who had imposed
upon hith, by giving a 51. note of the Brlstol
Batik, which had stopped payment- several years
ago. The applicant was desired to attend when
r, Ireland was re-examined.

FRENCH PAPERS.

(From the Etoile, dated Sunday, Nov. 20.)

MADRID, Nov. 13.—0 n the dismissal of M.

Zea a Certain party showed extraordinary joy.—
It was already announced that the first step of
-the Duke del Infantado had been to desire the
recal of the French troops, and that the French
Cabinet demanded the payment of the sums
which are due to it by Spain. There was not a
s'ord of truth in all these suppositions. People
are much mistaken if they suppose that a Royalist
-like the Duke del Infantado, who has given in-
contestable proofs of his fidelity and attachment
to his Sovereign, can take precipitate resolutions
contrary to the interests of his country : and they
are equally mistaken if they fancy that France
has no policy hi Spain but such as is attached to
individuals. Facts daily prove the falsehood of
such suppositions. We are sure that the Duke
del Infantado has declared to the Allied Courts
that the Spanish Government has for its basis

principles, not persons ; and that these principles,
founded on justice, and profoundly engraver in
the heart of the King, emanate directly from his
'Catholic Majesty. He says that though circum-

-stances, and some very serious reasons, require
some personal change, there is no change of the
system, and that to suppose otherwise would be
at) insult to the elevated character of the King,

and wound his delicacy in the tenderest part.
The Spanish Cabinet has manifested at the
same time that his Catholic Majesty, penetrated
with the most lively gratitude, and animated by
the purest friendship towards his august allies,
does not desire to impair, and will not impair,
the strict ties which unite them, and that his
foreign policy is invariable. It has added that the
King, placed by God at the head of the great
family which composes the Spanish Monarchy,
and in a situation to know better than any other
persons its wishes, its true interests, and the re-
medies to the evils which have so long harassed
it, thinks it useless to affirm, that the King will
never depart in the exercise of its sovereignty,
and the administration of his kingdom, front that
path pointed out by those motives which are, and
always will be, the sole guides of his conduct.
This important declaration, drawn up as it is
said on eminently monarchical maxims, cannot
but in,pire the most complete confidence in the acts
of the administration of the Duke del Infantado,
and gain him the good-will of all Governments.
The French Cabinet will dout►t less not be the last to
lend its support to the noble Duke fur the great
work of the regeneration of the Spanish Mo-

narchy.
PARIS, Nov. 19.—The Constitutionnel and the
Aristarque tell us to-day the Cabinet secrets of
the Ministers and of Kings. The first knows
that a mysterious personage has been introduced
.to the Minister of Finance, and that his name is
the Marquis de Livren. The second informs us
of the questions treated in the last Council, and
one of these questions is the dissolution of .the
Chamber (of Deputies). What well informed
journals! 'We have only to wish they may find
readers to believe them.

Accounts from Arequipa, Upper Peru, inform
us that the Ange G uardien, Captain Piguin
Blamhe,dispatched from Bordeaux at the begin-
ning of January 1827, arrived at Quilca between
the 6th and lOth of May following', and that
Bolivar caused ship and cargo to be seized ; de-
clared the crew and all the passengers prisoners ;
and that a sentence passed at Arequipa con-
demned the ship and cargo as good prizes. No
farther details are given of the consequences of
this irregularity.—(illcmorial Hordelais)

PAIUS, Nov. 18.—A journal mentions after
letters from Florence, that same misunderstand-
ing has arisen between the Archduchess Maria
Louisa, Duchess of Parma, and the Austrian
General CountNeipperg-, her Cavalier, d'llouneur,
who commands the troops of the Duchy.

is Chronologically arranged, and comprehends
Regal, Imperial, and Historical 'Characters, as
well as Persons of Eminence in every Art and
•Science. Its advantages of arrangement are
mans, inasmuch as by the juxta position and clas-
sification of contemporaneous lives, a continuity
as well as a sympathy of interest is excited,
which is wholly unattainable in a dictionary or
,other alphabetical form of arrangement, wherein
every subject .of reference must of necessity be
unconnected and isolated ; whereas in a chrono-
ligical and classified arrangement, Biography is
..-not confined to the memoirs of particular indi-
viduals, but comprehends the progress of His-,
',tory Literature, Arts, and Sciences. The first
Series of this Work comprehends the whole of
.Scripture and ancient Biography, to the time
of our SAVIOUR, and is complete in One Volume,
:Trice 18s The Second Series comprehends the
;period from the Birth of CHRIST to the Reforma-
Aion, in two volumes, 1/.los. Published by SHER- .
