BOW-STREET.-(THIS DAY.)

William Johnsen was placed at the bar before Mr. Jar-
dine, charged with illegally entering the area of the
house of a Mrs. Forsyth, in Russell-street, Bedford
square, and stealing some meat, bread, &c., from a safe
therein.

It appeared that Mr. Ashworth, a next neighbour of
the prosecutrix, saw the prisoner get into the area, by
climbing over the rails. He immediately went to the
spot and found the prisoner in the area, who clambered
up by the water-butt for the purpose of getting out, and
Mr. Ashworth called a constable, and gave him in
custody. Ile said he went down to get his cap, having
thrown it down by accident, and he thought he had a
right to go down after his own property. Two pieces
of bread, each rather more than half of a 4-Ib. loaf, a
piece of meat, and some other articles, which had been
deposited in the safe, hanging in the area, were after-
wards found in the area, having been thrown on the
ground.

The prisoner, who made no defence, was committed
For trial.

about eight o'clock, in Regent-street, and saw the pri-
soner take two silk umbrellas from the door of Mr.
Melton's shop, 194, Regent-street. Prisoner was run-
ning, and held two umbrellas in his hand. Witness
tripped him up as he passed, secured the prisoner and
one of the umbrellas, but the other was carried off by one
of the prisoner's accomplices.
The prisoner, who had been before convicted, was
committed for trial.

A miserable-looking old woman, named Bridget Moly-
neux was charged betore Mr. Combe with stealing 13
pounds of pork from the shop of Mr. John Conway, a
cheesemonger in Gray's Inn-lane.
The prisoner watched the opportunity, and while Mr.
Conway was busy with a number of customers, snatched
the pork from the window and ran off with it. She
was captured after a sharp chase of nearly a quarter of
a mile.
