His Lordship, who stood in the body of the Court,
did not reply to the question, but proceeded to con-
sult Mr. Wilde, the barrister, and not having pre-
viously
instructed Counsel, he was allowed to retire
with the Learned Gentleman in question.
After the lapse of some time, Mr. Wilde re-entered
the Court, to grant the prosecutor an opportunity to
speak to the defendant; which having been assented
to, Mr. Wilie retired, and shortly afterwards re-
turned, and said that Lord Frankfort had placed
himself entirely in the hands of the Court, to do with
him what it might consider right, and he (the Coun-
sel) was glad to say, that the parties had communi-
cated, and that the prosecutor was satisfied.
The defendant was then fined Is., and discharged.

little variation.

COFFEE.—This afternoon 70 barrels Jamaica Coffee
were offered at public sale, and nearly all taken in rather
above the value ; low middling at 635, fine fine ordinary
55s to 58,., fine ordinary 4`is to 50; ; rod ordinary 441
to 455, low good ordinary 41s to 425. Native Ceylon
met with little attention, and 951 bags only in part sold
at 37s for good ordinary, and at 30a 6d to 365 6d for
damaged, which is the full value ; but 24 casks Planta-
tion went at stiff rates ; good coloury bold at 70s 6d to
71s 6d, rather small ditto 64s to 665, middling and good

middling 54s 6d to 61s.
SPICES.—To-day a public sale of 370 bags Pimento
went at id per lb advance, and sold at 5i to 5i.1 for mid-
dling quality. Of Jamaica Ginger 139 barrels were
sold at lower rates; very fine quality went at 9145, fine
Si 5 s to 6/, middling and good 2116 s to 4. 6s, low 213 s
to 2111 s. 216 bags Pepper were taken in at 21e1 to
2jd for clean grey Cochin, which is above the value.
TEA.—There has been little desire evinced to operate
in good and fine descriptions of Cougou privately this
week, but merchants generally are not disposed to lower
their prices, and for the limited parcels sold have ob-
tained Is Id to is 4il for the former, and is 6.1 to 2s for
the latter. The lower qualities, however, met with rather
more attention, and brought fire) prices, whilst a fair busi-
ness has been eoucluded ; common at 9d to 61d,good com-
mon 9id to 103, but mid and mid sorts were operated in
with caution, and easier rates were taken, viz. middling
lOid to Is per lb. Ot common there is only a moderate
quantity on offer. The market for the better qualities
of Green is in an inactive state, and having a fair supply,
prices continue on the decline, hut in common kinds
large purchases have been made, in consequence of the
low rates that prevail. All sorts of Young Hyson have
have been in excellent request, and brouget stiffer rates.
In Scented Teas there has been little passing.
RICE.—To-day the market was abundantly supplied
with East India Rice, and the parcels offered at public
sale amounted to 4,694 bags 1,424 packets Bengal, 2,998
bags Madras, and 4,281 bags Ceylon. Merchants were
desirous to sell, but submitting to a reduction on former
rates of 6d per cwt, occasioned the demand to be good,
and nearly the whole found buyers.
MOLASSES,—The demand for all sorts of West India
has been active this week, and prices have assumed an
upward tendency, The private sales are 500 puns.
Antigua of fine quality at 19s ; Grenada fair at 16s 6d,
and St. Lucia at 16s. Of Mavritius some parcels have
been disposed of at 165. In Bengal Treacle large pur-
chases have been made at 183 per cwt for fine quality.
Coco ..—Although there are sellers of West India
upon further reduced terms, yet buyers have been
cautious in their proceedings by private treaty. We
quote Trinidad red at 45s to 495, gray 43s to 47s ;
Grenada 42s to 465, and St. Lucia at 38s to 455. At
public sale 77 bags of Trinidad were part sold, good
dark red 18s 6d, good grey 47s 6d, and middling 455.
Foreign is little required, and 36s to 39s is the value of
Para.
SPIRITS—AII descriptions of Jamaica Rum have been
in go td request during the week, and the rates paid have
been fully equal to those previously current ; indeed the
superior kinds brought rather more money. The total
sales are 250 puns plain quality 31 to 34 per
cent. over proof at 3s 8d to 3s 9d ; 33 to 36 over
middling to good 3s 10d to 4s 2d, and fine 4s 4d to 5s
per gallon ; indeed the operations would have been upon
a more extended sale had the market been better sup-
plied. The home trade continue to be the chief buyers,
Demerara of strong quality is wanted at previous quota-
tions, and for 100 puns 35 to 37 per cent over proof 3s 6d
to 3s 7d have been obtained. East India is yet
little required, and the sules during the week amount
to only 100 puns at Is lid proof with certificate,
whilst there is a fair quantity on offer, and holders are
disposed to sell at present moderate rates. The
market for Leeward Island has a dull appearance,
and the nearest value of pi oof strength is 2s 3d to 2s 4d
per gallon. Of Rum several parcels have been
received. Although Brandy can be obtained upon for-
mer reduced rates, still there is no improvement to no-
tice in the home or export demand for any kind, whilst
there is a plentiful supply, especially of old landed.
Geneva for export is held for 2s 8d to 2s 9d, and fine
for home consumption at 3s 3d to 33 6,1 per gallon, as
the supply is small, but all sorts have been operated in
with caution. For forward delivery there are, however,
sellers these rates. In the value ofEnglish Corn Spirits
and Gin there is no variation at present to make known.
SALTPETRE.—To-day, at public sale, 372 begs Cal-
cutta sold at 293 6d to 30s for fine strong grey, 3i- per
cent refraction, and which is 6d lower; 72 casks were
taken in at 31s for manufactured, 9i per cent.
INDIGO.—The quarterly sale is fixed for the 12th of
October, and the quantity that will. be offered is ex-
pected to be large, amounting to 16,000 chests; at pre-
sent 10,439 chests are declared. East India of all de-
scriptions met with little attention from exporters or
the home trade, although there are sellers rather
under the July sale ; prices are, however, not ex-
pected to be much lower, as the stock is smaller than it
was in the past season ; the deliveries are larger, the
importation smaller, and prices lower. Spanish is little
required, and the limits d business done privately was at
barely-former rates: at auction 23 serous Guatimala
sold at 2s 6d to 3s 4d for middling to gold.
COCHINEAL.—This. afternoon the market was well
supplied with Cochineal, and the quantity offered at
public sale amounted to 929 bags; there was not much
desire shown to operate, and a part only sold Id to 2d
under previous rates.
OlLS.—This afternoon at public sale 126 casket Seal
Oil were sold at easier rates ; straw at 251155, yellow,
251 to 251 10s, brown 241 fos to 241 15. 65 pkgs
Cocoa Nut sold at the stiff rates of 50. 6d to %Os 9d per
cwt.
TALLow.—This afternoon at public sale 150 hhds
North American Butchers' Melted Tallow sold at 45s fid
to 465, and 787 boxes South American at 47s to 47s 9:1
per cwt for fine, which are lower rates.

(THIS EVENING.)

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.
GUILDHALL.
John Walters, a clerk to Messrs. Da Silva and Co.,
patent medicine warehousemen, Bride-lane, was
brought before Sir Chapman Marshall, Lint., charged
with embezzling money received on account of his
employers.
The evidence previously given was to the effect
that the prisoner had been in the service of Messrs.
Da Silva since January, and in July he was told he
might call on a customer named 'Willoughby, for the
amount of his bill, but not to press him. The pri-
soner called, and was immediately paid, but he did
not account for the money. A month afterwards he
was asked if the customer had paid, and the prisoner
stated that he had not. In a day or two after that
the fact of the payment was discovered, and upon
examining the prisoner's accounts, and finding some
envelopes among the waste rubbish, it was appre-
headed his deficiencies would prove numerous, and he
was given into custody.
Mr. Kearns, the solicitor for the prosecution, now
stated that the customers generally had been written
to, and it had been ascertained that the prisoner's de-
ficiencies amounted to 3001. He was prepared, by
producing the prisoner's receipts, to show the pay-
ment of 561., and other sums, making a total of 1001.
He hoped the Magistrate would dispense with bring-
ing witnesses from Edinburgh, and other distant
places.
Sir CHAPMAN MARSHALL said he could not com-
mit on other than strict legal proof.
The prisoner said he was willing to plead guilty to
receiving the three sums Mr. Kearns referred to.
Sir C. MARSHALL remarked that though the priso-
ner pleaded guilty here, he would at the Old Bailey
have the opportunity of pleading not guilty ; and if
he should do so he would be acquitted if the proper
witnesses were not in attendance.
Mr. Kearns stated that he must, in that case, ask
an adjournment.
The prisoner objected. He was willing to plead
guilty to the charge as presented, but he should not
do so if he were indicted for embezzling 2001. Why
should Mr. Kearns want to go to that extent ? He
pleaded guilty as to the 561., the 141., and the other
sum, and he objected to being remanded.
Sir C. MARSHALL said the complainant required
further time to get up his case, and he saw no reason
to refuse it.
The prisoner was remanded for a week.
Mr. Alderman WooD mentioned that he had re-
ceived an anonymous letter, complaining of the negli-
gence of the police as to certain matters. It was his
practice to pay no regard to such communications.
He believed an anonymous informant seldom spoke
the truth, and often sought to cover some malicious
motive by the secresy of such informations. If the
matter of the letter were true, the writer ought to
have the manliness to come forward and state it.
Jeremiah Scanlan, a lad, was committed for trial for
picking a lady's pocket of her purse, containing about
21., yesterday, in Fleet-street. Upon being detected
he dropped the purse on the ground, and pointed out
somebody who happened to be passing, as the thief.
There was, however, a witness who saw his hand in-
troduced into the lady's pocket.
.Henry Robinson, another lad, was charged with
picking a lady's pocket of her purse, containing about
21., on Ludgate-hill.
He was remanded in the hope of catching his ac-
complices in the act.
CLERKED WEL L.
Susan Porter, a fashionably-dressed young woman,
was charged by Colonel Robert Batty, of Hampton-
place, Camden-town, with having sent him threaten-
ing letters, with intent to extort money.
It appeared that for some time past the Colonel had
been annoyed by some parties sending him threaten-
ing letters, to expose him ; but not containing the
nature of any particular offence. At length he re-
ceived another letter of a similar description, signed
" Susan Porter," King's-road, Camden-town, when he
gave information to Inspector Dodd, F division, who
instituted inquiries, and apprehended the prisoner on
Saturday last, when she was brought to this court and
remanded until this day, in order that further inquiries
might be made.
Inspector Dodd deposed that in consequence of in-
formation which he had received from Colonel Batty,
that he had been annoyed by the receipt of letters
threatening to expose him, &c., one of which, signed
" Susan Porter," being handed to him, he was induced
to make inquiries, and subsequently to call at a house
in King's-road, a short distance from St Pancras
workhouse. He knocked at the door, which was
opened by•the prisoner, when he inquired for Mrs.
Porter. The prisoner said she was not at home, she
had gone to Southampton. Witness then took the
letter out of his pocket, and said he had called about
that letter, which was dated from that house the day
before. She continued to say, " Oh, you come from
Colonel Batty. You do not want to see Mrs. Porter;
it is Miss Porter you want to see. lam Miss Porter,
and that letter is in my handwriting. That is my
name, Susan Porter, at the bottom of the letter.''
Witness then told her that he must take her in
charge, and he brought her to this court. He handed
the letter to the Bench, the contents of which we are
not acquainted with.
Yesterday Colonel Batty, who seemed to be suffer-
ing under ill health, attended at the court, and was
ushered to a seat on the bench.
The prisoner was placed at the bar, and a solicitor
attended to defend her, he having been allowed inter-
views with her prior to the examination.
He now addressed Mr. Tyrw'aitt, and begged to
say that he had had a interview with the prisoner, who
it would appear had been injudiciously advised by her
friends. She now regretted what she had done, and
retracted everything contained in the letter, and
pleaded for mercy, under a promise that no future an-
noyance should take place ; and she had written a
letter to that effect, which he now handed in.
The letter was delivered to Col. Batty, who perused
it, and then real it aloud. It was to the purport of
the soicitor's statement, who said he was willing to
sign and attest it.
Colonel Batty, rising said he came there with the
inti nti ,n to prosecute the prisoner, although he was
stiff ring from ill health, under tic dolereux, and far
from being in a fit state to do so ; but after reading
the letter produced, and in consequence of the pri-
soner's youth, and his state of health, he was induced
to forego further proceedings, but upon the under-
standing that if ever anything of the sort should be
repeated in future, he should most certainly prosecute
to the utmost rigour of the law.
Mr. Tx RWIIITT said that parties must be fully aware
of the serious consequences attendant on sending
letters containing threats of an infamous kind to in-
jure the reputation of others. He (the Colonel) must
be aware of such tendency, and had he carefully con-
sidered the matter, and if he had done so, what were
the principal grounds upon which he would forego a
prosecution ?
Colonel Batty—The prisoner's youth, her retrac-
tation of any malicious motive, and the state of my
health.
Mr. TYRWHITT said that many slight cases were
brought before that court, in which they were glad
when parties did not press a prosecution, but in a
case of this kind he hesitated much as to whether he
should be strictly performing his duty in permitting
such a course. Punishment would be the result of
a prosecution, and as far as he was personally con-
cerned, he could have no desire for such a result, or
no objection under the circumstances to discharge
the prisoner, but he did hope he would not be doing
wrong in acceding to her discharge, in the hope that
she (the prisoner) would avoid anything of the kind
in future.
stated in her letter of re-
Solicitor—What she has
tractation and promise she sincerely feels and means,
I do assure you.
Colonel Batty—Then I am satisfied.
Mr. TYRWUITT remonstrated mildly with her, and
then discharged her, when she left the court with her
solicitor and friends, who appeared to be respectable ;
and the Colonel and his son left by the magistrates'
entrance.
Richard Neil, a watchman, employed by the di-
rectors of the Imperial Gaslight and Coke Company,
John-street, Bedford•row, St. Andrew's, Holborn,
was placed at the bar, charged with stealing 401bs. of
lead, the property of the company.
It appeared that on Wednesday. night, about ten
o'clock, the prisoner took the property to a marine-
store dealer's in Somers Town, and offered it for sale,
but the owner refused to buy it, suspecting that it
was stolen, and he gave information to Etheredge, of
the E division, who followed him and took him into
custody, with the property in his possession.
The superintendent to the company attended, and
said of late robberies of the kind had been committed,
but they did not know whom to suspect.
The prisoner denied stealing the lead, but he was
fully committed for trial.
WESTMINSTER.
Charles Newel, a youth, about 17 years of age,

lowing shameful manner :

LAW INTELLIGENCE.
COURT OF BANKRUPTCY, Sept. 5.
(Before Mr. Commissioner FONBLINQUE.)
1N RE BONNET AND T:EALEIS.

These bankrupts were wine merchants of Knights.
bridge, and Bonney now applied for his certificate.
The trading extended over a period of about eight
months, and the debts now amounted to 1,5001.
Good debts, 6881.; and property, 901. Profits, about
700/. ; and expenses, 1,2001.
He was supported by Mr. Duncan, and opposed
by Mr. Cooke on the ground, that in March and
April last, the bankrupts being in difficulties, having
been sued by certain creditors, applied to the oppo-
sing creditor for wines to a considerable amount and
discount of some bills of exchange, and having ob-
tained goods to the extent of 4671., was sued by
Lemon Hart and Co., to whom a judge's order was
given, and by whom the property was swept away.
In 1843, Bonney gave a bill of sale to a creditor fur
1,3001., and then, in 1846, entered into partnership
with Beales, upon a borrowed capital at an enormous
rate of interest.
The bankrupt having been examined at some length,
and Mr. Duncan heard in an able and lengthened
address to the Court upon his behalf,
His HONOUR said, I entertain no'
-doubt that the
bankrupt Bonney was insolvent as far back as the
year 1843, and the strong fact of his having been so
is, giving the bill of sale of his furniture, and con-
tracting debts by borrowing money at the ruinous
rate of interest of 10 per cent. Clearly insolvent I
believe him to have been when he made this partner-
ship, and it appears to have been very ill considered
upon both sides, for Bonney did not inquire about
the presumed capital to be brought in by Beales, and
the latter did not look into the accounts of Bonney,
whose duty it was to take stock. Respecting certain
wines which had been in the docks for fifteen years,
not taking them out too meet his difficulties shows me
that they were not of great value, and his accounts,
which appear well in figures, are fallacious, not being
the true facts ; and it appears to me that Bonney was
either afraid or declined to look his affairs in the face.
A. man is certainly not to be judged by results; but,
when matters are doubtful, results show a great deal.
In January he was paying 10, 15, and 20 per cent.,
which is not objectionable on a pinch; but for years
this bankrupt has been paying 10 per cent., and
that furnishes me with the strong inference that he
was insolvent ; and in March their bills were not paid,
and they go to Morgan, who, I am of opinion, let
them have goods, supposing that Beales had brought
in his capital. Shortly after -this, Lemon Hart and
Co. get a judge's order, and I regret to say that
judge's orders have been made the instance of most
abominable frauds by bankrupts, which have also.
made void the intention of the Legislature, which
went against secret warrants of attorney. Looking
at all the facts of the case, the certificate must be au..
pended for eighteen months, with protection.
Suspended accordingly.

MIDDLESEX SESSIONS.
(Before the ASSISTANT JUDGE).
Lodge Raymond Frankfort, commonly called Lord
Frankfort de Montmorency, surrendered yesterday to
answer an indictment, charging him with having as-
saulted Robert Hall, on the 4th instant.

PRICE OF SUGAR.
The average price of Brown or Muscovado Sugar, computed
from the returns made in the week ending embptr 7,
1847, is 253. 10d. per cwt.

The prosecutor, who described himself as a porter,
at 64, New Bond-street, stated that about a quarter
to tour o'clock on the evening of the day named in the
indictment, he was proceeding along Bond-street on
his way home to his lodgings, when suddenly he
heard the trampling of feet behind him. lie moved
on one side to let the person pass, and on turning
round, the defendant, without the least provocation,
spat in his face, and exclaimed, "How dare you spit
in my face ?" The prosecutor asked his Lordship
what he meant by spitting in his face, when his Lord-
ship dared him to do the same to him. The prose-
cutor thereupon spat in the defendant's face, but had
no sooner done so than his Lordship struck him with
his fist several times on the breast ; the prosecutor
ran away, but the defendant followed him, and struck
him over the head and face with a heavy walking-
stick, with which he inflicted a severe wound on the
right temple. A policeman came up at the moment,
when the defendant was given in charge for the
assault.
The prosecutor denied that he had given Lord
Frankfort the slightest provocation in the first in-
stance.

THE SUN, LONDON, FRIDAY EVENING, SEPTEMBER 10, 1847.

number of persons running right and left, followed
by a horse and cart driven by the defendant at a
very furious rate. Although the horse was going
at the very top of his speed, defendant was flogging
him most unmercifully with a heavy whip, and it was
a miracle that half a dozen people were not killed or se-
riously injured by defendant's gross misconduct. Com-
plainant called after defendant to stop, but he did not
until he followed towards him. Complainant then
inquired where he lived, and, on his replying, in the
neighbourhood, said he would accompany him home.
Defendant then suddenly commenced flogging his
horse as before, and went away at full speed. Com-
plainant followed, and seeing two constables, told
them what had occurred, and pointed defendant out,
when they followed and apprehended him. Inde-
pendently of the danger to the public by the furious
driving, the defendant was accompanied by a large,
ferocious dog, who was attacking the people on the
right and left, and amongst them complainant, who,
however, contrived to keep him at bay with his stick.
The constable who took the defendant into custody
said that he had to stop him by main force, and that
the dog repeatedly jumped up, and endeavoured to
seize his hand or the horse's head.
Mr. Donogan, an inspector of the B division, said
that a person, who was not now in attendance, came
to the station on the previous evening, and complained
of having been attacked by the dog. The animal had
torn one of the skirts of his coat completely off.
Defendant, in answer to the charge, said "his
horse was very anxious to get home," and he tried to
pull him up.
The master of defendant stood forward and said
that he had been in his service twelve months, and he
never was complained of during that time for im-
proper driving.
Mr. BURRELL said it was a very bad case, and or-
dered defendant to pay 205., or be committed for 14
days, for the furious driving, and a further_ penalty of
55., or 14 days, for suffering an unmuzzled ewfound-
lad dog to be at large.—The fines were paid.
John Dooley, a journeyman bricklayer, was charged
with violently assaulting Mr. Edward Taylor, the
proprietor of the Thistle and Crown, great Peter-
street, Westminster.
Defendant went into the complainant's house on the
previous night and flourishing a bricklayer's trowel
about, swore he would cut off a woman's head. He
then made a blow with the trowel at a woman who
was near him, but she fortunately avoided it by
stepping on one side, and the trowel cut a piece out
of the door. Complainant then interfered, when the
defendant struck him with the trowel upon the fore-
head. Complainant then knocked him down, and
took the trowel from him and gave him into custody.
In answer to an inquiry from the MAGISTRATE,
Mr. Taylor said he was not seriously hurt by the
blow. It, however, gave him a deep cut in the
forehead, from which he bled very freely. He struck
defendant two or three times.
Mr. BURRELL ordered defendant to pay a penalty
of 405., and in default committed him for a month.
ARLBOROUGH-STREET.
Thomas Cooper and Elias Pooie, two journeymen
boot and shoe-makers, were charged with robbing
their employer, Mr. John Simpson, Tottenham-court-
road.
It appeared that some suspicion was entertained by
Mr. Simpson, and Police-constable; Hughes, E 114,
was employed to watch the movements of the pri-
soners. The constable, on Wednesday evening, saw
Cooper leave his master's shop, end go to the door of
a public-house, where Poole came out to him. Cooper
went back, and again came out, and gave something
to Poole. Cooper then returned to the shop, and
about ten o'clock he came out again and went into the
public-house, and gave Poole something, which Poole
put in a bag. The prisoners went away together,
and witness followed. The prisoners were about to
separate, when witness went up to Poole and asked
him what he had in the bag. Cooper then ran off,
and Poole said to witness he supposed that witness
knew all about it. Witness afterwards apprehended

by Mr. Simpson. Witness afterwards made inquiries,
s
and discovered a quantity of boots and shoes at different
pawnbrokers.
Mr. Simpson stated, that. Cooper had been six
months in his service, and Poole two years. The 16
pairs of boots and seven pairs of shoes now produced
were his property. A great deal more propery had
been stolen, some of which bad been recovered.
Five or six pawnbrokers produced boots and shoes,
which had principally been pledged by Poole.
The prisoners declined to make any defence, and
were fully committed.
WORSHIP-STREET.
Anse Smith, a well-dressed woman, of diminutive
stature, was placed at the bar before Mr. Arnold,
charged with having stolen a cash-box, containg up-
wards of 1001., in bank notes and gold, and also vari-
ous articles of plate, jewellery, and other property,
from the dwelling-house of Mr. Thomas Furley, a
tea-dealer, at Upper Clapton.
The prosecutor stated that, after seeing that his
premises were properly secured on the preceding night,
he retired to rest with his family, and without having
been in the slightest degree disturbed during the
night, was awoke between six and seven the next
morning, according to his directions, to deliver his
keys to his shopman, when he observed that his cash-
box, containing the above sum, remained safe on the
top of a chest of drawers, where he had previously
deposited it. He then returned to bed, and almost
immediately afterwards, hearing some one stealthily
open the room, whom he supposed to be the maid-
servant, he asked her what she wanted, and was an-
swered in a female voice that she had only come for
the rushlight. The door was then closed, and in a
few minutes he was alarmed by the hasty entrance of
his daughter, who, in a great consternation, informed
him that during the night her bed-room had been
ransacked by thieves, who had not only opened her
drawers and taken away numerous articles of jewel-
lery, but actually stole her watch from the head of
the bed upon which she was lying. She farther
stated, that she had some recollection of having heard
footsteps upon the stairs before daybreak, and seeing
the reflection of a light beneath her door, but took no
notice of either, as she imagined it was her mother
going up stairs to visit the children. Upon receiving
this information he started up, and after looking for
the cash-box, which he had so recently seen safe,
found that it had disappeared. He immediately ran
down stairs and alarmed his servants, and in about
twenty minutes afterwards was apprised that the pri-
soner was in custody.
Emma Piper, the prosecutor's housemaid, stated
that upon coming down stairs that morning, a few
minutes before the alarm was raised, she found the
prisoner in the passage, and upon demanding her
business, she said she had just been up stairs to see
Mrs. Furley, who had desired her to wait there for
her. Witness then proceeded to open the parlour
shutters, and while doing so, her mistress hastened
down, exclaiming that the cash-box was stolen, and it
was then found that the prisoner had disappeared.
Two shopmen were sent after her, in different direc-
tions, and witness ran into the back garden, and dis-
covered near the gate, which was open, a large clothes-
basket, completely filled with provisions, knives and
forks, silver spoons, table and other liner., and nume-
rous other articles, which had been purloined from the
lower part of the house.
Edward Payne, one of the shopmen, deposed to
having overtaken the prisoner at a short distance from
the premises, and observing his master's cash-box
protruding from beneath her shawl, expressed his in-
tention to give her into custody, when the prisoner
tee& to her heels, and turning into a nursery, secreted
herself in a water-closet, the door of which she
secured. A policeman came up at the moment, who
forced the door, but the prisoner had, in the mean-
time, got rid of the cash-box, which was subsequently
found secreted in the place, and she was conveyed to
the station.
Inspector Waller and Sergeant Hawke produced a
gold chain, brooch, locket, and numerous other trin-
kets, which the prisoner had in her possession, upon
being searched at the station-house, and the prosecu-
tor's daughter identified as her property.
Upon being asked if she wished to say anything,
the prisoner declined doing so, and the Magistrate
ordered her to be remanded for the completion of the
evidence.

SOUTHWARK.

Elizabeth Marshall, the woman who charged her
husband with administering a poisonous drug to her
in some ale, on Monday night last, was brought before
Mr. Seeker, on a warrant, by Police-constable 42 L,
she having neglected to attend the adjourned exami-
nation on the previous day.
Since the examination on Tuesday, the charge has
assumed a more serious aspect against the prisoner's
husband, as the contents of the stomach had been
analyzed ; and Mr. 'Wagstaff, who was in attendance,
iniormed Mr. Seeker that the drug administered to
her proved to be tobacco, and a large quantity, in a
ground state, was discovered. He further stated,
that a quarter of an ounce of tobacco, infused in a
pint of liquid, would be sufficient to destroy three
full-grown persons. He was also of opinion that,
had not the stomach-pump been used so soon, nothing
could have saved her life.
Mr. Edwin (the chief clerk) stated the nature of
the case to Mr. Seeker, and said, that he believed the
prisoner did not wish to give evidence, and that was
the reason of her neglecting to attend the re-examin-
ation. She had been miraculously saved from being
poisoned, and acknowledged before Mr. Cottingham,
that her husband had threatened to do for her. Con -
sequently Mr. Cottingham considered it his duty to
cause the female to be apprehended on a warrant.
Mr. SECKER (to prisoner)—Why did you not
attend on Wednesday ?
Prisoner—l could not, your Worship, for I was at
work at No. 9, Charlotte-street, Blackfriars-road.
Mr. SECKER-But this was of great importance,
more so than your work. The charge against your
laustani is of such a serious nature that it play affect,

his life—therefore you- were bound to attend. It HORRIBLE
appears that the case is adjourned till Monday next,
and as you seem unwilling to appear against your
husband, I must require you to find bail fur your at-
tendance on that day.
In default of the required sureties she was com-
mitted to gaol.
William Taylor was brought up for re-examina-
tion, charged with stealing fifteen pocket handker-
chiefs from the shop of Mr. Farey, hosier, Newing-
ton-causeway.
Elizabeth Potter, a young woman in Mr. Farey's
employ, said that en Saturday morning last, shortly
after eleven o'clock, the prisoner crept stealthily into
the shop and snatched a quantity of silk handker-
chiefs from a bundle, with which he ran out. She
ran to the door and called " Stop thief!" when he
was stopps,d with the property in his possession.
Joseph Jones, a market-gardener, said that he saw
the prisoner running from Mr. Farey's shop, and
hearing last witness call out " Stop thief !" he stopped
him until a constable came up, when he was taken
into custody. The property was found on him, and
identified by the prosecutor.
The prisoner, who made no defence, was com-
mitted for trial.
John Smith, a young man about 17, was charged
with stealing a tubular boiler, belonging to a steam-
engine, the property of Messrs. Cater, boiler-makers,
Great Guildford street, Southwark.
John Farmer, carman in the prosecutors' employ,
said that about eight. o'clock on the previous evening,
while he was proceeding to the stables, he saw the
prisoner enter the yard and go towards the place
where several tubular boilers were lying. He looked
about him for a few minutes, when, believing he was
not observed, he took up the boiler and was walking
out of the yard, when witness went up and secured
him until the arrival of a police-constable, when he
was given into custody.
In answer to the charge, the prisoner said that he
did not go into the yard with the intention of
stealing anything, but seeing the boiler lay in the
path, he took it up to place it out of the way, when he
was collared by the witness.
Mr. SECXaR said he should commit him for trial,
where he would have an opportunity of telling his
story to a jury.

LAMBETH.
Mr. John Hinckley, D ukt -street, Westminster-
read, appeared before Mr. Elliott, to show cause why
an order should not he made by the magistrate to
compel him to deliver up seven chandeliers, of the
value of 151., which it was alleged he had illegally
detained.

Mr. Wooley, from the office of Mr. Sermon, soli-
citor to Mrs. Crockford, attended on behalf of the
complainant, and Mr. Lewis appeared for the de-
fendant. _ _ .

From the evidence it appeared that Mr. Fleming,
a broker, had levied a distress for rent, on behalf of
Mrs. Sarah Frances Crockford, into the well-known
club-house, in St. James's-street, and which has lat-
terly been called the St. James's Assembly rooms,
and white the man was in possession, Mr. Hinckley
succeeded in removing seven chandeliers from one of
the grand saloons. The present proceedings were
therefore taken to compel him to restore the property,
or to pay its value, 151.
Mr. Lewis urged various legal objections against
the proceedings. In the first place, he wished to take
the Magistrate's opinion at to whether or not the fifth
clause of the County Courts Bill did not destroy his
jurisdiction in such cases as the present. In the next
place, he should be able to show that the property in
question was over the value of thirty pounds, or double
that over which his Worship had jurisdiction. In the
third place, he contended that the instructions to the
broker, to distrain or levy, were informal, inasmuch
as it was seized by Mr. Sermon, and not by Mrs.
Crockford. And in the fourth place, he was in a
condition to show that the property in dispute was
the bonci fide property of Mr. Hinckley, and had been
merely let out on hire to the late occupiers of the
club-house or assembly-rooms.
Mr. ELLIOTT, in reply to the objections urged, said
it was his opinion that the County Courts Bill did not
alter the jurisdiction of the maigstrates—that it had
been sworn to that the value of the property did not
exceed fifteen pounds, and that the defendant had no
right to take away the property while under legal
seizure for rent. There were some points of the case
which required further evidence ; and as Mr. Lewis
requested it, he should adjourn the case to a future
day.
Considerable laughter was created during the hear-
ing of a case, in which John Lloyd, an engine-driver
on board one of the Chelsea steam-boats, was sum-
moned for wilfully damaging a room which he oc-
cupied in the house of Mr. Batchelor, a furniture-
broker, in St. George's-row, near the Elephant and
Castle.
Mr. Batchelor deposed that on Saturday morning
last, the defendant, who had lived for some time at
his house, removed from there, and on examining the
apartment which he occupied, witness was utterly
Annoyed at the scene which presented itself. The
house being old fashioned, the walls in the rooms
were fitted with panelling, and on each of these
panels a highly grotesque figure was drawn. The
ceiling was also ornamented. The witness then left
the Court, and in a few moments returned with one
of the panels, which he had removed from the wall,
which bore a drawing in the cartoon style, of a huge,
il I- shapen, terrific-countenanced man. The exhibi-
tion was so truly ludicrous, that it was impossible to
look at it without being provoked to the most exces-
sive laughter, and so it elected every one in the
Court.
Mr. ELLIOTT—What proof have you that it was
the defendant who has caused this damage? Bat-
chelor—Because, your Worship, there was no person
there to do it but himself. Besides, your Worship,
they must have been done by an artist, and his wife
has acknowledged to me that the defendant is an
engineer and draftsman.—(Laughter.)
Mr. King, a painter, was here culled, and said
that the cartoons on the panellings were drawn with
a composition of lamp black and grer-e, and the or-
namental work on the ceiling by the smear or smoke
from a candle, and it would cost at least twenty
shillings to put the room into tenantable order.
The defendant denied being the artist on the occa-
sion ; but his denial was given in such a way as to
leave no doubt on the minds of all present that the
contrary was the fact, and the Magistrate, therefore,
ordered him to pay twenty shillings, the amount of
the injury and the expense of the arrest, or in default
,o stand committed to prison for twenty days.

Christopher Charles Thurston, a well-dressed man
formerly a conductor in service of the Hammer.
smith Conveyance Company, was charged on suspicion
of having been concerned in stealing, on the 3d inst.,
from the premises of Mr. William Redkeson, the
Sussex Arms Tavern, Broadway, Hammersmith,
Bank of England notes to the value of 100/., and a
cheque on the banking-house of Messrs. Drewett and
Fowler for 121. 3s. Bd.
Policeman Low, T 50, deposed that from informa-
tion he had received that morning, between 7 and 8
o'clock, he apprehended the prisoner on the above
charge, and he had every reason to believe, that if the
prisoner was remanded for a few days, he should be
able to produce highly important evidence in the case.
By the prisoner—The prisoner, when witness ap-
prehended him, was at the Sussex Arms, where the
robbery was committed.
The prisoner said he had gone there to have an
explanation.
Inspector Morgan, T division, informed the magis-
trate that he had other evidence in Court against the
prisoner, but he did not consider it advisable to bring
it forward on that occasion, as he saw persons then
in Court who would most probably take advantage
of it.
The prisoner said he hoped he should not be re-
manded without sufficient evidence being gone into to
warrant the magistrate in doing so. He had unfor-
tunately no counsel in attendance on his behalf, and
he therefore wished the magistrate would act for him
instead.
Mr. BEIDON inquired if the prisoner was known
to have been ever in custody before on a charge of
felony ?
Inspector Morgan replied that he was not aware
that he had ever been so.
Mr. BEADON then decided on going into further
evidence before he remanded him.
Joseph Gardiner deposed that he lived at No. 11,
Ely-street, Percy-street, Kingsland-road, and was a
porter, working occasionally at Birch's, the confec-
tioner, in Cornhill. The prisoner resembles a man
who came to witness in Cornhill on Friday last, the
3d inst., with a cheque fur 121. 35. Bd. He asked
witness if he was a porter, to which he replied "yes.
He then asked witness if he knew the banking-
house of Messrs. Drewett and Fowler, and what
his charge would be to go there. Witness told him
that he knew the banking-house, and his charge
would be sixpence. The prisoner then gave witness
the cheque, and told him to go to the banking-house
and get it cashed, saying he had to be at the Cross
Keys Inn, Aldersgate-street, at half-past two o'clock,
and as it only wanted a minute to it, witness was to
to bring the money to him there. Witness took the
cheque, and went to Messrs. Drewett and Fowler's,
in Princes-street, Bank, when he was detained, and
the cheque stopped.
By Mr. BEADON—Had not seen the prisoner again
from that time until he saw him that day in custody.
To,the best of his belief the prisoner was the
same mean.
The prisoner asked the witness what time of the
day did he say it was that he gave him the cheque ?
The witness said, half-past two o'clock. Witness
told him that it wanted a minute to it. The prisoner
had not the same coat on then that he had at the bar.
The prisoner hastily said it was the same coat he
had on at the time.
Mr. BZADO:C said he should round the.prisoner for
a week,
