POLICE INTELLIG ENCE.

Q UEEN- S Q UARE:.
George Mwzday, a man about .50 yea rs of age, dressed
as a countryman, was placed at the bar :upon the following
charge. The appearance of the prisoner was most singular.
He had suffered his hair to grow to an ex- traordinary length►
which was parted with extreme neatness s in the centre of
his forehead, and fell on either shoulder . His beard was
also cut in the Vandyke style.
Police constable 98 A stated that 'km was on duty at
Charing-cross, about half-past nine o'cloe.k yesterday morn-
ing, when he saw the defendant go down o,n his knees in the
carriage-way, take out a book, which ap pe,ared to him to he
a Bible, and begin to preach in a loud tone. His extraor-
dinary conduct collected a considerable crowd, and witness
attempted to persuade him to desist, w hich was met by an
answer from the prisoner that he had ", come there to sot:
the inhabitants, and to warn them of the northern oral.
He then took him into custody. On his vay to the station'
house he behaved in the same extraordinr try manner. ,
Mr. GREGOR IE asked the prisonerwhat he was, and
where he came from.
Prisoner took out a Bible, opened it, an then said be
was a shoemaker, and came from fifteen milts below gala'
stone. His object was to pray for the inhabitants, save
them from the wrath to come, and prepare them for the
great army which is coming from the north.
Mr. GREGORIE—This cannot be allowed. If I let yo
go now, will you go home ? Prisoner (seriously)—l can'
not promise that ; it is just as the spirit wills. I !vigil"
say I would go home, and before I had got out of this office
the Spirit would tell me to go down on my kilees, and P 1
for you all, as Ido now. Oh ! I hope you ve ill take wars'
ing, and remember the army is coming from the north.--*
The prisoner was proceeding in this strain, when Mr. Glti
gorie observed the only course he could adopt was to 13°
the prisoner to bail. The prisoner was then removed,
