COURT OF ALDERMEN:

Yesterday a Court was held, for th,.. purpose of swearing in
Mr. Thomas. Farneomhe, as Alderman of the Ward of Bas=i-
sh,w, in the room of Mr. White. who resigned.

Mr. WARD, the surron, of Basinghaa-street, whose father,
33 years ago, intr,duced Claud:us Stephen Hunter, thy'
present father of the Court, to the Court of Aldermen, pre-
sented Alderman Farncombe on the present occasion. The
Alderman was accompanied by a number of the most respect-
anle and influential men in the Ward.

Mr. Wano said that he felt high gratification in presenting
to the Court a gentleman of high character and attainments,
and of considerable property, :is the representative of the
Ward of Bassishaw. In proceeding to elect, according to the
terms of the precept, a fit and proper person to the
station of Alderman, the constituency had selected the most
fit and proper person they could find, and although other
very respectable men were named as candidates the esti-
mate formed by the great majority of the Ward of the
merits of Mr. Farncombe was such that all niea of competi-
tion was speedily dropped, and the result was the unanimous
choice of that excellent individual—( Hear, hear.) It was
most creditable to Mr. Farncombe that he voluntarily pledged
himself, upon being elected, to bestow his patronage upon the
Ward ; anal the constituency felt convinced, that if any cir-
cumstances arose which would be likely to call for great exer-
tions on the part of the Magistracy, as was the case in former
times, when Alderman Cornbe and Sir James Shaw acted with
such energy and resolution, the new Alderman of Bassishaw
would not be backward in distinguishing himself.—( Hear.)
Alderman Farncombe then took the oaths and his seat.
The Court, after some preliminary business, proceeded to
the consideration of an application relative to the alienation of
the office of one of the attorneys of the Mayor's Court.
No business of public importance was transacted.

POLICE INTELLIGI.:NCE.
MANSION-HOUSE.

A cabman named John Lambert was brought up for final
examination on the charge of having stolen the sum of 38/. 145.,
the property of Mrs. Yates, which was left in his cab by that
lady.
Mrs. Yates, the wife of the owner of the Crown and Cushion
public-house in Page's-walk, Bermondsey, stated that on
Saturday the 22. d of May she went to the flank of England,
and received there three 10/. notes, eight sovereigns and a
half in gold, and four shillings; that she planed the money
with several private papers, two silk handkerchiefs, and a pair
of gloves, in her reticule ; called a cab, of which the prisoner
was driver, at the City side of London-bridge, and directed
him to drive her to Bermondsey Old Church-gate ; that he
drove her accordingly, and that very soon after she departed
she missed her reticule; that she returned, accompanied by a
friend, to the cab stand, where she was informed the prisoner,
was not come back, but that after a long search she found
him at half-past three in the afternoon of the same day, when
he declared that he knew nothing of the property, but that he
had taken up a gentleman immediately after he set her down.
'the witness also stated that she gave the prisoner into the
custody of a policeman, and ascertained the numbers of the
bank notes from her stockbroker, and put a stop on them at
the Bank.

Henry Jackson (City policeman No. 615) stated that the
prisoner u, on being taken into custody gave as his address a
place which he had left two months. Subsequently the pri-
soner said that he would show witness where the pi oserty
but soon after declared that he knew nothing at all about it,
and that they could but transport him for it.
Jane Mary Pilgrim, who was taken into custody by George
Dewar, a Metropolitan policeman, said that she had been for
the last four months living with the prisoner as his wife, at
No. 21, Three Ton-court, Iledeross-street. About one o'clock
in the afternoon of the 22t1 of May she met the prisoner in
Alliersgate-street. in his cab, in company with another mar.,
and was told by him that he had got some money, and that she
must return home. She did so, and he gave her a 101. note,
and fold her to go and change it. She went soon afterwards
to a straw bonnet-shop in Aldersgate-street, where she bought
two straw bonnets at 25s each, for which she offered the 101. note
in payment, and received the difference. When she returned
h - was out, anti she did not see him again until he was in cus-
tody. She then w,ilked with him to the Compter, and was
tt,ld by him that they were on the mantel-piece behind a shell,
where she found the other notes and the gold. She changed
one of the notes at a public-house, and threw the other over
iars-bridge by the persuasion of some persons, and she
expended and lost the remainder. The prisoner, when be first
returned home on the Saturday, burned a black reticule and
some papers which were in it, and, after he was in custody,
witness wrapped up two silk and one lawn handkerchiefs in
paper, and threw them into the street.
The LORD Ma volt asked her whether the people who
changed the notes for her put any questions to her as to where
she got the notes?
. . . _

The %% itness replied that nobody asked her one word about
the matter.

Mr. nobler, said several tradespeople made it a rule never
to ask any question, All they were desirous of knowing was
whether the bank-notes presented to them were genuine, and
they wished to be known as tradespeople who gave change to
customers without exercising any curiosity. 'I here were, it
was to be regretted, tradesmen of high character who acted in
the manner described.

The LORD MAYOR said that the practice was most disgrace-
ful, and he hoied it would fall under the condemnation of the
Judge.
Mr. John Bullock, stockbroker, of No. 39, Lothbury, stated
that on the 22d May he paid Mrs. Yates three 101. Bank of
England notes, eight sovereigns and a half, and four shillings,
and that the 101. note produced was one of them.
'The prisoner wap then committed for trial.
