POLICE INTELLIGENCE.
MARLBOROUGH-STREET.
Mrs. Mary Hatildingtox, who gave her address, West-
bourne-grove, was brought before Mr. Hardwick, charged
with having stolen a pair of gloves, a pair of stockings,
and a collar, from theshop of Messrs. Phillips and Co.,
mercers, Regent-street.
An assistant to Messrs. Phillips, named Edwards, said
the prisoner came into the shop that day, and made selec-
tion of some articles, which she wished to be packed in
a parcel, and sent to a Mr. Roberts, of Carlton-terrace.
Witness suspected the prisoner, and on watching her
closely, he saw her take something from the counter,
and place it beneath her shawl. As she was about to
leave the shop, she was stopped and charged with the
offence of stealing. When searched at the station-house
the property now produced was found in her possession
The prisoner, who was very genteelly dressed, in a
very rambling, incoherent way, begged the magistrate
to send for her aunt, and she would tell him all about
it. She said her husband had gone to the Bank to re-
ceive some money, at the end of a Chancery suit, and
she had contrived to leave home without the knowledge
of her family.
Mr. IlanDwicx asked the witness Edwards, if the pri-
soner exhibited the same incoherence when making pur-
chases?—The witness said, certainly not. The prisoner
was as collected and sensible as the most rational of the
customers.
Pelice-constable Mould, C division, said the prisoner
certainly did not exhibit the same eccentricity of man-
ner wh( n he took her into custody.
Mr. Hannwiesc said it would be as well to make in-
quiry of the prisoner's friends, whether the present irra-
tional manner and speech were only assumed, or whether
the prisoner really laboured under disordered intellects.
He should direct the police to make the requisite in-
quiries before he finally committed the prisoner.
The prisoner was then removed, and when in the
lock up cell she gave her address, No. 2, Mountford-
road, Westbourne-road.
MARYLERONE.
A considerable degree of interest was excited at this
ponrt in consequence of its having been the day ap-
pointed for the re-examination of Mr. Thomas Buxton
Baynes, surgeon, Thaxted, Essex, who on Friday last
was brought up by Inspector Tedman, of the D division,
upon a warrant charging him, the said defendant, on
the oath of the Rev. Thomas Harvey, " with having, on
the Ist of April instant, at the parish of Paddington, in
the county of Middlesex, unlawfully taken an unmarried
girl, to wit, Marian Frances Jane Harvey, she being
under the age of 16 years, out of the possession of and
against the will of him, the said Thomas Harvey, her
father."
The particulars which previously transpired require
uo more than a brief statement by way of allusion to
them, inasmuch as the subsequent inquiry (to-day) will
put the public in possession of the whole history of the
transaction. It may be observed that atter the young
lady was missing from her parents' dwelling the Rev.
Mr. Harvey repaired to Thaxted, accompanied by some
friends and Inspector Tedman, and that after a deter-
mined struggle she (the young lady) was brought from
the defendant's house sad taken up to London, where
she was safely lodged in her father's house. The pro-
secution was instituted under 9th Geo. IV., c. 31.

Mr. Clarkson, the barrister, attended for the prose-
cution.
Mrs. Harvey and her daughter, who arrived at the
court soon after one o'clock, were accommodated with
seats in the magistrate's private room, and it was gene-
rally imagined that the young lady would have been
called upon to give evidence. This supposition was the
in the anxious expectation of obtaining a sight of her,
but their wishes were not realised.

" Faiday.
" Dear Sir,—l suppose I shall merit your eternal con-
demnation. I need not refer to late events. I place all
my happiness in the society of Fanny. An uncon.
trollable feeling of regard, which neither you nor Mrs.
Harvey could have been insensible to, has led me to abuse
your hospitality, and break the bonds of friendship and
honour, and make me entirely at your mercy. I wish to
take all the blame upon snyself ; Fanny has received
an earnest and urgent solicitation from me. I cannot
tell how this affair has come about, nor can she.
I believe, though there is a fearful disparity in
our ages, that there exists a mutual regard and affection
of the strongest kind. It would ',Ave been useless to
have asked your consent—that question has been dis-
cussed over and over again. I love Fanny to distrac-
tion. I will work hard tor her support, her happiness,
and comfort. Do not blame me. I will consult all her
wants, study her wishes, and treat her with that con-
sideration and delicacy which is her due. It will be
useless to pursue us—such would be an endless labour,
and would tend to make public those circumstances
which would not be worth the trouble you would have
to encounter. Arrangements arc made which will pre-
vent any possibility of detection. You shall hear from
us to-night. If you wish to communicate with us,
insert a short advertisement, in French. in the
to-morrow morning. Bear in mind lam no adventurer.
You have this to consider—you cannot undo what has
been done. Fanny is happy; but I feel that I have
abused your kindness, and am unworthy your consider-
ation. I hope for your forgiveness.

~ T. 13, B."

848.

P.S. I risk fearful consequences, but it matters not
n hat becomes of me; if you separate us, I can but make
short work of it, and I would suffer death as soon as

diegrace."
Mr. Harvey, in continuation, said—l have since suc-
ceeded in regaining possession of my daughter, whom I
found at defendant's house at Thaxted yesterday week,
at about three in the morning. She was then in bed. I
was resisted by the defendant upon my insisting upon
entering into his dwelling, and in a struggle which took
place at a back door of his house, a pistol fell from his
person. I also found another pistol under my daughter's
pillow; both of them turned out to be capped and loaded.
(Tbe pistols were here produced by Mr. Tedman; they
were small, but of exquisite workmanship.)
The Rev. Gentleman, in reply to a further question
from Mr. Clarkson, said —Upon my catb, it was not in
any way with my sanction or will, that my daughter
went away with defendant, and I would rather see her in
her grave than she should have done so.
By Mr. Wilkin—On the Friday, he might have come
to my house at the request of my wife, but I don't know
that he did. (A letter written by Mrs. Harvey was
brought forward end read ; the purport of it was an
invitation to dine with the family on the Friday, the
day preceding her daughter's abduction.) I have uo
knowledge of my daughter's portrait having been taken
by an artist, at the request of defendant; and until 3 es-
terday I never heard that she had accepted from him
either a riding-hat or a ring.
Another letter from Mrs. Harvey, and which was ad-
dressed to the defendant before the family left Thaxted,
was read by Mr. Wilkin. The said epistle assured de-
fendant that she (Mrs. Harvey) and Fanny were much
attached to him, and that by the aid of steam he might,
in the space of an hour, be with them.
Cross-examination by Mr. Wilkin continued.—l have
not seen defendant walk in the garden with my daughter,
but if I had seen it I should not have objected to it. I
never heard the defendant had been stopped by a high-
wayman some time ago, and that ever since he had car-
ried pistols about him by way of protection.
Mr. Wilkin here produced a number of letters alleged
to be in the handwriting of the Rev. Gentleman's daugh-
ter, and was about to read some of them, when—
Mr. 13itoucwroN asked if the young lady was to be
called as a witness for the prosecution?
Mr. Clarkson.—Certainly not.
Mr. BROUGRTON then decided that the letters could
not be read.
Mr. Clarkson—Now, Mr. Harvey, I ask you this
question, upon your solemn oath, did you ever consent
in any way whatever to your daughter leaving home
with the defendant, or had you the slightest idea that
he was courting her?—Mr. Harvey—Certainly not.
Mr. Harvey, in answer to Mr. Wilkin, said I recollect
Mr. Barnes having asked me to allow him to have Fanny's
portrait taken, and I acceded to his wish. The likeness
was taken by Mr. Gee.
Mr. Clarkson, at this stage of the proceedings, ad-
dressed Mr. Broughton, to the effect, that after the evi-
dence which had been adduced, he thought that there
would be no hesitation with respect to the defendant
being called upon to find good bail for his appearance,
to answer the charge at the next session of the Central

Criminal Court.
Mr. Wilkin trusted that the Magistrate would not do
so, unless he felt that there was a chance of a con-
viction.
Numerous cases were brought forward by Mr. Wilkin,
who conducted the defence in a very able manner, and
he contended that no proof had been adduced as to any
offence having been committed by his client. Letters
which had passed between the parties clearly showed
that there was a strong feeling of affection existing be-
tween his client and the Rev. Gentleman's daughter, and
that there was not the slightest ground for imagining
that she had quitted home otherwise than with her ow❑
free will and consent.
Mr. Clarkson argued, pro contra, at some length, and
asserted that the defendant had, by his own letter ad-
dressed to the complainant, fully established his guilt.
The Learned Gentleman also produced the certificate of
marriage between the parties at St. Margaret's Church,
Westminster, and it was already shown that the de-
fendant had sworn that the young lady whom ho had
married was above the age of IS, and that the alliance
was with the full and entire consent of her parents; thus
showing upon the face of the said document that ho had
committed the crime of perjury.
Mr. BROUGHTON, who aL initio had paid the greatest
attention to the case, and a great deal of whose time
hadtheen devoted to researches into authorities bearing
upon the circumstances connected with the case under
inquiry, reviewed the whole of the evidence adduced,
upon which he expatiated at some length. The conclu-
sion which he ultimately came to was, that it was his
duty to send defendant for trial on the charge of ab-
duction.
The defendant was they committed, but he was allowed
to put in bail to the amount of 1,0001., viz., himself in
6004 and two sureties in 2501. each, for his being forth-
coming to meet the charge at the sessions.
LAMBE,TIL

Robert illurdie, the young man who has been in cus
tody for some days past on a charge of violating the
person of Miss Rebecca Sophia Yarwood, under circum-
stances of great brutality, was placed at the bar before
Mr. Elliott for final examination.;
Mr. Humphreys attended on behalf of the accused,
whose friends were said to be respectable.
The prosecutrix, a genteel, but delicate looking young
woman, who was so affected on seeing the prisoner
as to be unable for some time to go on with her
evidence, stated that she had been acquainted with
the prisoner for about a month previous to the
present occurrence, and he paid her attentions with
the view of marrying her. On the evening of Friday,
the 31st of last month, he called at the house of
her parents, Agnes-street, Waterloo-road, and requested
her to accompany him for a walk, the evening being
very fine. She, with the consent of her mother, went
out with him, and they crossed the Westminster bridge,
passed the Houses of Lords and Commons, the Alillbank
Penitentiary, and Vauxhall bridge, and proceeded so fur
in that direction that both lost their way. The prisoner,
at her request, went into a public house to inquire their
way, and being desired to take the second turning to the
left, they proceeded in that direction. They walked for
some time, and at length came to a narrow bridge, when
the prisoner said he was then quite aware of the neigh-
bourhood and where be was. They crossed the bridge
(Battersea, it is supposed), and on getting over the
night became dark. The prisoner took her along some
new buildings, and on to a piece of ground which ap
peered to be laid out for building, and the place
was so dark and lonely that she dropped his arm
and refused to proceed any further in that direc-
tion. The prisoner asked her if she was afraid of
him, or if she thought he was some villain going
to deceive her? She replied that she did not think
he had any intention to harm or deceive her, and he
declared that, on the word of a man, he would not. He
then asked her if she saw some lights at a distance, and
on her answering in the affirmative, he said it was there
his men worked, and he had to go there daily. They
proceeded a short distance further, when the prisoner,
suddenly seizing her in a violent manner, threw her to
the ground with great force. On falling she felt a severe
blow on the back part of her head, which so stunned her
that she became insensible; and on her recovering she
struggled as well as she was able to get away from him,
but was so weak and exhausted that she fainted, and on
her recovering the prisoner was in the act of lifting
her from the ground, and searching her pockets for a
smelling-bottle. She proceeded with him a short dis-
tance, when her head became so affected that she was
nearly falling into a butcher's chop, and she did not
recollect anything that occurred until she got near
home, when she felt in a wretched and feeble state.
The prisoner then said, " For God's sake walk, if you
can ; my arms are so tired that I cannot get them
to my head, for, in fact, I have been carrying you
for the last hour." He also asked her to have
some brandy, and said that though having no money
about him, he should make it all right by leaving some
artiole for its amount. She declined having any spirits,
and on getting to the top of the street where she lived,
the prisoner remarked that her bonnet was much bruised,
and requested her to take it off and put it into proper
shape. He also entreated her to conceal what had hap-
pened from her mother, and conceal her clothes, so as to
prevent suspicion, and, further, requested she would see
him on the following evening, but she refused to do so.
He then said he should pack up his clothes and start for
the country on the following morning if she persisted in
her refusal, upon which she promised to see him, but this
was solely for the purpose of preventing his going out
of town in the morning, havingdetermined in the interim
to make her parents acquainted with the manner in which
she had been treated. The prisoner parted with her
near the doer, and on going into the house she imme-
diately fainted.
From her replies to the question of Mr. Elliott, as to
the condition in which she found herself on her being
restored to consciousness. as well as to the state in which
she found her clothes on returning home, there could be
no doubt that the treatment which she had experienced
at the hands of the prisoner was of the most brutal de-
scription.
Mr. Humphreys, to the witness—Has the prisoner
frequently promised to marry you?
Witness—Yes, he has.
Mr. Humphreys—Well, if he is willing to keep his
promise, which he always has been, are you willing to
marry him ?
Witness—lf he treated me with the cruelty which he
has done, I should be afraid to marry him.
The mother of the prosecutrix was the next witness
called, and was about to give evidence of what her
daughter had told her on her return home, when she was
stopped by Mr. Humphreys, and her testimony was con-
fined to the shocking state in which she found her
daughter on her return home, and the dangerous state
in which she remained for some days after.
Mr. Wagstaff, the surgeon who examined the prose-
catrix on the morning of the occurrence and afterwards,
deposed that when he first saw her she was labouring
under a slight concussion of the brain, occasioned by
some violent injury on the back of the head, and for two
or three days she was in a highly dangerous state. In
conclusion, Mr. Wagstaff' said he had no doubt the viola-
tion of the prosecutrix had been effected, and with con-
siderable violence.
Mr. Humphreys, in reply to the charge, said the pri-
soner had always intended, and was still willing, to
marry the young woman.
Mr. ELLIOTT said he feltit his duty to send the pri-
soner for trial, and the charge against him was of so
serious a character that he did not feel justified in accept-
ing bail for him.
The prisoner was fully committed.

RESIGNATION OF THE GOWN or BREAD• STREET
WARD.-At a Court of Alderman held on Tuesday the
Lord Mayor read a letter from Alderman Hughes
Hughes, resigning the gown of Bread-street Ward. Tht
resignation was, after a high eulogium upon Mr. Hughes
Hughes, in which all the members joined, accepted, and
a copy of the resolution of the Court, expressive of their
great respect for his character, was ordered to be forth-
with transmitted to him,

IRELAND.
DUBLIN, APRIL 11.—We are all in a state of anxiety
here respectii.g yesterday's proceedings in London. The
alarm has, however, somewhat subsided in consequence
of the electric telegraph announcing a rise in the funds.
It is not unreasonably concluded that if London had
been in the hands of the mob, the funds, in place of being
in advance of Saturday's quotations, would have been
down a trifle or se.
In Dublin everything is quiet, as pratelic confidence
is beginning to pervade the public mind.
MEETING CI THE CORPORATION.—AII adjourned meet-
ing of the Corporation was held this day, at theAssei?ably
House, William-street; the Lord Mayor in the Chair.
On his Lordship taking the chair, Mr. Creagh inquired
if he had made up his mind relative to the preseetation
of the address voted some time ago to the French people;
to which his Loidship replied that he had submitted the
case to counsel for advice, and until he received the
opinion he could not give an answer. Mr. Creagh was
proceeding to ask further disagreeable questions, when
he was called to order, and the matter dropped.
SLIGO ELECTION.—The polling commenced yesterday
morning, and at half past two Mr. Somers, the late
Member, was in a minority of 12. Subsequent accounts
state that Mr. Townley has been returned.
THE ELECTRIC TELESRAPH.—The Freeman's Journal
complains bitterly of the seizure of the electric tele-
graph by Government. They say they had wade
arrangements by which we hoped to have been able to
give in this impression, by electric telegraph, at least •
resumi of the state of affairs in London up to Monday
evening. Last night, however, we got an intimation
that the Government, having seined upon all the electric
telegraphs, in order to prevent the transmission of all
intelligence save such as it might choose to forward, the
arrangement we had made could not be carried into
effect. «'e confess we cannot look upon this act as other
than most foolish. It, however, indicates a feeling of
alarm which exceeds even what we were previously pre-
pared for. Should the Government open the lines in the
course of the day, we hope in a second edition to be able
to give the intelligence up to Monday evening.
DEFALCATION IN THE KERRY SAYINGS BANS.--"A
great sensation was caused in Tralee on Monday last by
the arrest of Mr. John Lynch, solicitor, of that tOwn,
and for twenty-fire years Secretary to the Savings Bank.
A hurried meeting of the trustees was held on Friday.
at which the details of the defalcation were set forth by
the Rev. Mr. Rowan. Mr. Lynch has admitted the fee?
of the case, and its fraud, and offered to make over his
property to make good the loss to the public. The fraud
was carried on for years, and discovered in consequence
of the late run on the resources of the Bank.

Lockey aud Phillips. The audience, which sise

leading the cheers.
