POLICE INTELLiGENCE.
GUILDHALL.
A young girl, named Ann Bullings, was placed at the
bar before Sir Peter Laurie, charged with having at-
tempted suicide, by throwing herself from the third arch
of Blackfriars-bridge into the river.
6ergeant Diblen, No. 306, said she fell on her back in
the water, when some men, who were working at the
repairs of the bridge, brought her to shore in a state of
insensibility. She was taken to the receiving-house, and
thence to the Compter. The only effects she complained
of from the fall was a slight pain in her shoulder. N°
less than three similar attempts had been made by other
females last night.
The prisoner said she had been in the service of a fur-
rier, named Collins, in the Newington-road, by whom she
was discharged, and in consequence made the attempt.
Sir P. LAURIE said this bridge was becoming a resort
for persons like the prisoner. It must be put a stop to,
and he was determined by every means in his power to
o
do so. The public mind had, in his belief, been poi
by a set of low penny publications, in which-those cases
were blazoned forth, and they had instances of the effect
produced from such sources in the Monument cases. lie
shOuld, under these circumstances, at least do away with,
the romance of the affair, and commit her on charge of
felony to NeWgate, where she would be tried and most
probably transported.

On Wednesday Eleanor Gooding,. a woman abcut 50 ~
yj
years of age, was charged on suspicion of having been
concerned in plundering the premises of Mr. Louis
Kyczor (to whom she was housekeeper), No. :17,
Edgewarc-road, of. nearly 100 silver watches, valued at ,•
but little short of 3001.
Prosecutor deposed that on Suaday-ovening last be
returned home, between seven and eight o'clock, to an-
other shop of his, and at which he and most of his ..01'
family reside,in Tottenhana-court4oad, when he received
information that the prisoner had, a. short time pie-
viously, come there in breathless baste, saying that
she had been sent for to see his daughter, who, n 6
she bad been informed by a young woman, was LAO
suddenly and dangerously ill. On finding that there
was nothing the matter with her, the prisoner exclaim'
ed, " Oh, my God ! I've no doubt been hoaxed, and
I'm afraid the shop has been robbed." She then raw
out of the place, followed by one of the apprentices ;
and as soon as he (Mr. K.) was made acquainted tvith
what had transpired he called a cab, in which he vas
driven off at a rapid rate to the Eigeware•road. On
arriving at his premises he taw the prisoner and his
apprentice standing at the door, and having aseertailed
that a great number of watches had been carried off
he at once repaired to the station-house. Serjcants
Thompson and Levett, of the D division, returned with
him, and on making an examination it was discovered
that there were no marks of violence on the door lead-
ing into the street, but that the lock of the door oPcn•
ing into the shop had been forced, and by that oleo,
the robbery had been effected. A chisel which ha
°
evidently been used for the purpose was lying by the
side of the counter.
Mr. RAWLINSON—When you made the. discover,' nr,
your loss, what conversation passed between you
the prisoner ? Prosecutor—l told her I was quit,e, ,0
sure it was a " put up" robbery, and asked her who ba".;

stated that a gentleman and two young men had ealleu
upon business and wished to see me. At a little after
seven a young woman knocked at the door, ad e a
telling her that she was wanted dire tly to see MiLis
Kyczor, who was dying, she got into an omnibus

There being. no other evidence to implicate the pri'
Boner, Mr. %MUNSON ordered her to be discharged
for the present.
