CENT

,AL CRIMINAL COURT,
THIS DAY.

• OLD COURT.
James Lynch, aged only nine years, was convicted of steal-
ing a handkerchief from the person of Mr. Henry Harris, in
Farringdon-strect, in the evening of the 29th December.
The prisoner denied his guilt, and declared he never was in
any trouble before.
_ _

-Mr. Wontuer said he had already suffered imprisonment in
Guildford goal.
Mr. Sergeant ARABIN said as the prisoner had already un-
dergone punishment without its producing any amendment in
his conduct, it was the duty of the Court to sentence him to
be transported for seven years. He, at the same time, informed
the boy that he would be sent to the hulks, where, if he pleased,
he would be taught a useful trade, so that he might, at the end
of his term, become a good member of society.
Joeph TViggins, aged' 24, was indicted for 'stealing two
boxes, value ss. 6d., the property of James Dallett, his em-
ployer ; and James Bagskaw and Samuel Pearce were in-
dicted for receiving the same, well knowing them to have beer
stolen.
WigginsPiris in the service of Mr. Dalletx, a candle-maker,
at Putney, as a carter. His duty.was to carry out boxes of
'candles, and bring home the money. On the 22d December,
Wiggins called at a public-house where Bagshaw was hostler,
and sold the two boxes to him. Bagshaw afterwards sold.
them to the other prisoner. This was the statement of Bur-
ton, they-under hostler at the Goat's Head, under Bagshaw.
Mr. Dallett could not swear that the boxes in question had
not been kept by some of his customers and charged to them.
Burton underwent a very severe cross-examination 'ay Mr.
C. Phillips, during which he contradicted himself so often
that the litry interfered, and said if the case rested upon his
te,stimony,, it might not occupy more time. Verdict—Not
Guilty.
John Jones was indicted for stealing eight yards of cloth,
valued at 8/. the property of James Morrison and Co., of
Fore-street.
Mr. C. Phillips stated the case to the Jury.
Mr. M. Solomon examined by Mr. Bodkin. He 'resided
in Moore-street, Compton-street, Soho, a clothes-Alesinan. The prisoner called on him on the 23d December, and offered him two pieces of cloth, containing eight and a half yards for
5/. It was put up in two paper parcels. He thought the
value of it was from 18s. to 20s. That excited some Suspi-
cion, and he asked him if it was his- own. He said he had it
from his brother, a tailor, in Long-lane, Smithfield. Witness
said' he would send and see; if it was all right he would per-
chase it. The prisoner said he was going down to Wales, and
would take 4!. for it sooner than have any more trouble about
it. He then gave him into custody.
William Hatteley took the prisoner into custody. He'then
gave the same account of the cloth, and said it was given to
les, where his mother. was
him in order to take him into Wa
very ill. He found upwards of 5/. ur,on him.
James Brett, cloth buyer in Mo.rrison's, proved that the
cloth in question was the property of the firm. The prisoner
was house porter, and had nothing to do with the business.
Mr. John Dillon, one of the partners of the house, said the
prisoner was in their employ on the day in question, and had
been for two years. The prisoner had the key of a small
beer cellar which adjoined the cloth warehouse, and there was
a communication broken between them.
This was the case for the prosecution.
Several friends gave the prisoner a very excellent character.
Mr. Dillon said they had had a very good character with
the prisoner, in 1832. Verdict—Guilty.
