POLICE INTELLIGENCE.
MARLBOROUGH-STREET
James Ewer, a respectable-looking young man, was
charged with robbing John F. Nehan.
James Naigle, barman at the Tower public-house, in
Tower-street, said he was told on Saturday night that
several persons in the tap-room were plotting to rob a
gentleman there. He went in and saw a gentleman sit-
ting there helplessly drunk, with two valuable band-
kerchiefs about his neck hanging quite loose, a handsome
watch, with guard chain and appendages, all of gold, on
his person, but quite exposed and loose, and three or
four gold rings on his fingers. In the room at the same
time, and about him, there could not have been less than
twenty persons, most of them ill disposed and suspected.
When he laid hold of the gentleman to take him out of
the room several of them opposed it, and expressed their
disapprobation, and some cried out, "Knock him down,"
meaning witness. The pot-boy then said to the prisoner,
"Come give up the handkerchief that you have got;"
but he denied having any handkerchief. However, as
witness saw that he held his band obstinately in his
pocket, he insisted on his giving it up, and he then pulled
out a handkerchief and gave it up.
John Frederick Nehan identified, and said the hand-
kerchief was his, but he could not say who had taken it
from him.

The prisoner, who had not been seen by any one to
take the handkerchief, said he put it in his pocket as a
thing which nobody owned. Ile gave a good account
of himself, which was found to be true, and he was dis-
charged.
The Goldsmiths' Company sent in their annual dona-
tion of 101. in aid of the poor-box.
