Frederick Banks was brought before Mr. Hail under
these eireurn,tanee*:—Ab nt two o'clock yesterday the
prisoner applied at the station-house, in Bow-street, and
demanded to be taken into custody, on his own confes-
sion for havi❑g embezzled mo❑ey received on account of
his employer, Mr. Smith, of Long-acre, provision mer-
cha❑t. It appeared that only three weeks ago he had sur-
rendered himself with a similar confession, at the same
police station, but on that occasion Mr. Smith declined
to prosecute.
The prosecutor now stated that after the prisoner was
discharged he (Mr. Smith) took him back into bis ser-
vice as traveller, in the hope that the shame he had
brought upon himself would be a lesson to him, and
that he would not be guilry of any further dishonesty;
but the prisoner kept back several payments since bis
brief return to his employment. He was not at that
moment pr«pared with an account of the sums em-
b zzled, but he would on Thursday produce them and
some of the customers who had mole payments, if the
magistrate put off the case until then.
Mr. Hall accordingly remanded the prisoner to
Thursday next.

, place, and, r the following circumstancws :
It appear, (I, Rost the cottfustd statement made by the
prosecutor, that between ten and a Leven last night he ac-
oomparitel a frannle tot he house of the prisoner, and was
shown into a bed-room, where, after stopping for a few
minutes, the prise ner came into the room, and went up to
a I onion of his clothinz, of which he had divested him-

vegan fumbling about the pocke s. Ile called out, '6 Pull,
what do you want ?" when she replied," I am only come
for my attire which I left t,n the mantle-piece." She then
left, the route, and on pr, secutor feeling in his waistcoat-
p cket he missed his watch. He then went out and
tetched a constable, and gave her in charge.
Police constable 100 C said, at the request of the pro-
secutor he went to No. 13, Buckingham-street, where
be saw the prisoner, who, on being told the nature of the
charge against her, produced the watch, and said she
had lent the prosecutor 10s. upon it, as be had no money
to pay the lady he had been with, and she was quite
ready to give it up upon his giving her the 10s. she had
lent him. The prosecutor denied having borrowed the
money, and witness took the prisoner into custody. The
prosecutor appeared to have been drinking.
The prisoner, in defence, raid the statement she made
to the constable was quite true, and she had fire wit-
nesses to prove it.
In reply to Mr. LONG, the prosecutor said he gave the
female whom he had been with a half soverei,ln, and if
he did receive any money from the prisoner he was nut
aware of it.
Kate Beacham said she occupied apartments in the pri-
soner's house. On the previous night the prisoner met her
and asked her to allow him to go borne with her; she
did so, and he promised to give her 10s. After remain-
ing with her about an hour, he felt in his pocket,
and said he had left his purse at home, and
would call and pay her to-morrow. She told him
that would not do, and then sent for her landlady (the
prisoner), who, at his request, lent him 10s, upon his
watch, and gave him a written paper to the effect that
when he paid the 103, the watch should be delivered to
him. He took the money and gave it to witness, and
then left the house; but in a short time he came back
and gave prisoner in charge for stealing his watch.
Other witnesses having corroborated the evidence of
last witness,
Mr. LONG said it was unnecessary to go on with the
case any further; he was of opinion the prisoner lent
him the money, and should therefore discharge her, and
prosecutor paid her
the lots. lent upon it.

stitution by the late illustrious statesman, and many other
distinguished personages who had ceased to watch its good
workings in this world. No less than 138,448 patients bad
participated in the benefits of the charity since its commence-

demanded its prosperity, alike for the many afflicted indi-
