SOUTHWARK.

William Dunn was placed at the bar before Mr. Cotting-
ham, charged on suspicion of being concerned with breaking
into the house of Mr. Joseph.Aniold, near Romford, in Essex,
and stealing 80,. in Bank of England notes, 40 sovereigns,
besides a gold watch and other property.
Mr. Arnold stated that on the flight of the 19th of iiovem-
ber on the morning of the 20th, his house, called Whalebone
Cottage, in the parish of Dagenham, Essex, was broken
into and plundered of the above property. The house was
only occupied by him, his wife, and two servants, and was
situated in rather an unfrequented part of the country. He
kept an excellent watch-dog, but the thieves effected an en-
trance by breaking the pannel of the back door, and having
obtained an en' ry they proceeded to the dining parlour, in
the cupboard of which was an iron chest of prodigious strength
and weight, affixed to the place where it was kept, which
was the depository of the above property. Notwithstand-
ing its cumbrous dimensions the chest was removed by the
thieves to a field at a considerable distance. By the side of
the chest was discovered the body of the watch-dog, which,
there was every reason to believe, had been killed by prussic
acid. The money contained in the iron chest principally
consisted of 51. Bank of England notes, and immediately
after the robbery the complainant gave notice at the Bank
to stop any of the numbers, should they be presented.
Owing to that notification, he was apprised that some of the
stolen notes had been paid in, but he failed in tracing the
parties until a few days since, when one of the Si. notes, No.
24,564, was stopped, which, en inquiry, was ascertained to
have been paid in by Messrs. Fuller, having been received
by that firm from a butcher living on the south side of the
water.
The bank note in question was produced and identified by
Mr. Arnold.
A butcher named Randall, living in the London-road, was
then called, and he stated that about a fortnight ago, to the
best of his recollection, the prisoner, whom he had previously
known about the neighbourhood, called at his shop, and, in
payment for a joint of meat, tendered the 51. Bank of Eng-
land note produced, on which he (witness) wrote the pri-
soner's name, which enabled him to identify it.
In reply to questions from the MAGISTRATE,
The prisoner said he had taken it of a man in Smithfield,
for a black horse, about three weeks since. He did not know
the man's name. The transaction took place at Gardener's
public-house, and, to the best of his knowledge, there were
three or four other men present, two of whose names were,
he thought, Fox and Ferrand. People who attend Smith-
field were obliged to take notes from strangers, and he took
the one in question in the usual way of business.
Policeman Terrick, 26 M, having stated that the prisoner
was tried some time ago for robbery, and that upwards of
twenty of his associates had been transported within that
period,

_
Mr. COTTINGAIM said the character he had just heard of
the prisoner, coupled with the fact of a stolen bank note, the
produce of a daring burglary, being traced to his possession,
decided him in the determination not to accept of bail for the
prisoner's future appearance, and that he should therefore
remand him in order to give time for the production of other
evidence against him.
