POLICE INTELLIGENCE—March 18.

without effect ; and as the applicants were too poor to
incur the expense, they wished to know what course
they were to pursue ?

MANSION-HOUSE.—An application was made to
Sir R. W. Carden on the sth inst., the particular circum-
stances connected with which are calculated to excite
strong public sympathy, and will probably command the
attention of those whose interposition may be effective
in checking the shocking evil which it exposed.
A man of respectable appearance named Thomas
Evans, who resides at John street, Parker's-row, Ber-
mondsey, said he had received information that morning
that his daughter, who was about 16 years of age, had
been inveigled on board a steam-vessel which had started
a few hours before for Hamburg, and that, taking into
consideration the character of those with whom the un-
fortunate girl had been seen, no doubt could be enter-
tained that she would fall a victim to the confederacy of
procureases who traffic between the seaport towns of
England and the continent if the most speedy inter-
ference were not resorted to.

Sir. Arnold intimated that the ordinary mode under
such circumstances was to apply to the parish autho-
rities.

The male applicant observed that the deceased lady
was the cousin of a viscountess, and the whole of her
connexions were of the highest respectability. He
thought it was not right that the deceased should be
buried by the parish while she had sons possessing such
wealth, and he wished to inquire whether they could
not be compelled by law to decently inter the remains
of their deceased parent ?
Mr. Arnold observed that he was reluctant to give
opinions relating to matters over which he had no juris-
diction, but he was nut aware of the existence of any
such law.

The gun-boats Violet and Goldfinch have filled their
ammunition stores with powder, shot, and shell, in pre-
paration for lengthened service, and sailed yesterday
morning from Woolwich, to test the qualities of their
engines and machinery, after which they are to proceed
to Greenhithe to be swung.
A new gun-boat,named the Roebuck, is to be launched
on Saturday at Messrs. Scott Russell's.
Lieut. W. Arthur has hoisted his pennant as com-
mander of the gun-boat Manly ; and Lieut. G. J. Row-
ley, of the Magnet ; both vessels have commenced their
preparations for sea at Deptford.
The schooner Junction is to sail from Woolwich to-
day with guns, mortar-beds, and gun carriages, &a., for
Portsmouth.
The shipment of Ordnance materials from the Low-
moor, Liverpool, and Scotch foundries to the War Dt.-
partment at Woolwich will shortly be suspended, as the
contracts for the season are fast drawing to a termina-
tion. Large numbers of mortars and heavy guns of every
description, with many 68 and 32-pounders, to supply
the fleet of gun-boats, have passed through the proof de
partment there. The new system of firing the proof
singly has been ordered to be entered as a permanent re-
gulation.
Mr. Gottlieb, late storekeeper of Woolwich Dockyard,
in addition to his full pay of active service, has been
granted 10C/. per annum as an equivalent for free quar-
ters. The newly-created post of accountant in the Store-
keeper's-office at the Dockyard, Woolwich, was filled up
on Satnrday, from Portsmouth, at a fixed salary of 5001_
per annum. A first-class clerk in the same department,
with a salary commencing at 3151. and annually increas-
ing 1.5/. up to 4501., was likewise appointed at the same
time from Portsmouth.

IRELAND.

Sir R. W. Carden expressed the utmost readiness to
render all the assistance which a London magistrate
could give in such a case, and immediately sent for two
officers of skill and experience, to whom he gave in-
structions to telegraph to Hamburg, in order that the
vessel in which the girl was stated to have sailed might,
on its arrival, be searched and the girl be protected.
The statement of the father was to the following
effect : —His daughter Susannah, accompanied by a
famale acquaintance, was the day bsfore, as they were
going to their work, met at the corner of Fenchurch-
street by a Belgian Jewess, who appeared to be known
to the latter, and who, in a very friendly manner, asked
them to go with her to tee two or three young girls like
themselves, who resided in Lambert-street, Leman-
street, Goodman's-fields. They consented, and accom-
panied their inviter in a cab to a house situate as de-
, scribed, where they were introduced to two young wo-
men in a room on the second floor. The appearance of
the place and of the women was not satisfactory to Su-
sannah Evans, who expressed much anxiety to get away,
but was prevailed upon by the Belgian Jewess to stay
to dinner, while the new acquaintances informed her
that they were going the next day to Hamburg te get
into splendid situations, in which they would be enabled
to live in style, wear gold watches and other jewellery,
and supply their parents with the luxuries as well as the
necessaries of life. The more desirous she was to go
-horn• the more they pressed her to stay, and at last she
was prevailed upon to go to bed, after having in vain at-
tempted to leave the house. In the morning, a an
early hour, there was a bustle in the house, and off 'she
was hurried in a cab with the two girls to whom she
had been newly introduced and deposited on board a
steamer which lay near St. Catherine's-wharf. These
circumstances the applicant said he had been informed
of by the young girl with whom his daughter had been
walking when she was accosted by the Belgian Jewess,
and who had contrived to escape from the house in
which his daughter had been detained.

DUBLIN, TUESDAY MORNING.

THE TIPPERARY BANK.

The selection of Mr. M'Dowell, F.T.C.D., to fill
the office of official manager was quite a surprise,
no less to the expectants of the prize than to the
public generally, and grave insinuations were freely
hinted against the fitness of the learned gentleman
to discharge duties apparently so incompatible with
those of a tutor of the University. Nevertheless,
the appointment is believed to be one of the best
that could have been made out of the batch of can-
didates submitted te Ma,ster Murphy. Mr. M'Dowell
is said by those intimately acquainted with him to
possess all the requisite qualifications for his new
office, and it is urged that he has been already en-
gaged in winding up the affairs of a public company
under nearly similar circumstances to those which
brought the Tipperary Bank under the guardian-
ship of the Court of Chancery. Subjoined is a sketch
of the proceedings yesterday iu the Master's
omce

"In accordance with the intimation which he gave a
the close of the proceedings on Saturday, Master Murphy
this day announced his decision as to the gentleman
whom ho had selected out of the list of candidates for
the office of official manager to wind up the affairs of
the Tipperary Bank. It will be seen by the following
order which the Master has made in the matter that
he has nominated Mr. M`Dowell, F.T.C.D , to the
office, Mr. J. D. Meldon t be his solicitor, and Messrs.
Gibson and Adair to be the solicitors having the carriage
of the proceedings.
" 'I cannot adopt the suggestion of appointing far the
present only an at interim manager. The various pro-
ceedings at law now pending render such a course, in
my judgment, most inexpedient. I must, therefore,
appoint an official manager, and in the present stage
of the proceedings I see no sufficient reason for ap-
pointing more than ono. Ie reference to this appoint•
ment, considering the policy of the acts of Parlia•
meet, the peculiar circumstances of the case, and
the character and competency of the other candidates,
I cannot feel justified in appointing as official manager
any person who has been proposed solely or in effect
and substantially on behalf of creditors. If I could,
there would be no difficulty whatever in selecting for
the office one gentleman, admittedly of the highest ste-
ton and character, Mr. Le Tcuche. From what trans-
pired at the hearing of the case, his appointment would
be likely to lead to much difficulty and embarrassment,
ae, in the progress of the ease, if any party were to ap-
ply is me to place the investigation of this company's
affairs with the Bank of Ireland in other hands, I could
not well refuse such an application, if supported by a
considerable number of the contributories. After the
most mature consideration, I have satisfied myself that
I ought, if possible, to select a gentleman proposed by,
and enjoying the confidence of, band fide contributories
of character and property, who admit their liabilities,
and are willing to answer their just obligations to the
utmost—and who, moreover, is wholly independent in
interest, business, or other relatione, and as regards
local association and otherwise of any class of persons
interested—who is not engagedsolely, or in conjunction
with others, in any banking or other mercantile busi-
ness or employment—who is perfectly competent to per-
form the duties of the office in point of knowledge, expe-
moms, and ability—who is also, as all the candidates
are, of assured position and high character, and who,
in addition to these qualifications, can devote his undi-
vided attention for a sufficient portion of his time to the
discharge of the duties of the office. It appears to me
that Mr. M`Dawell is, under all the circumstances, the
most eligible candidate. I have ascertained, from the
letters or certificates transmitted to me by him, that
there is, so far as the regulations of the College are con-
cerned, no objection to his holding the office. I cannot
avoid stating that Mr. Commissioner Longfield's moat
valuable testimony to Mr. M`Dowell's character, ac-
quirements, and peculiar fitness for this office, the
nature, duties, and responsibility of which no one can
understand better than Mr. Longfield, has necessarily
influenced me very much in making my selection of Mr.
M`Dowell. I approve Mr. Meldonaseolicitorfor the offi-
cial manager ; ether gentlemen named are equally, and
some of them, perhaps, more eminent than he is in other
departments of their profetedon ; but Mr. Meldon's
great experience and extensive practice in bankruptcy
and general mercantile business fit him peculiarly to die.
charge promptly and efficiently the duty of solicitor to
the official manager is this case. I therefore appoint
Mr. M`Dowell official manager, and I approve Mr. Mel-
don as his solicitor. From what occurred at the hear-
ing of this case in the Rolls Court, and upon every
ground, I hope that Messrs. Gibson and Adair will act
as solicitors for the carriage of the proceedings.
" Mr. Jefers Of the firm of Barrington and Jeffers)
said he understood the Master to state on Saturday that
those who were engaged for creditors or shareholders in
the bank should have a voice in the selection of the
solicitor who is to have the carriage of the proceedings.
" The Master said he did not mean to have it under-
stood that this would be the course adopted in making
the appointment, but that, out of the names of solicitors
sent in by the candidates for the office of official mana-
ger, he would be able to select a solicitor who should
have the carriage of the proceedings. And he thought
Mr. Gibson a very proper person for the office.
"It was stated that Mr. Gibson had been employed
as solicitor fur Mr. John Sadleir.
" Mr. Gibson said it was true he had been named as
solicitor on the record to defend Mr. Sadleir in an ac-
tion in reference to the Carlow election ; that was the
only case in which he had been employed for Mr. Sad-
leir, and ho did not know who suggested his name in
that instance.
"The Master asked Mr. Gibson if he would accept
the office of solicitor to have the carriage of proceedings
in this case.
" Mr. Gibson replied that he would ; but at the same
time he would wish to have another solicitor named
conjointly with him. He mentioned the name of Mr.
Adair for the purpose.
"The Master agreed to this course, and appointed
Messrs. Gibson and Adair to the office, observing that
there would be more to be done than was perhaps sup-
posed.

The following commanders have been appointed to
command steam despatch and gun vessels :
Cammanier H. C. Majendia, to the Alacrity ; Com-
mander W. Jones, to the Assuranc,...; Com. H. J.
Bloomfield, to the Osprey ; Corn. W. Armytage, to the
Vigilant. B. S. Owen and R. D. R. Farquharson have
been appointed midshipmen to the Vesuvius and the
the Retribution.

Smith (572) and Monger, the detective officer,
were the men directed by Sir It. W. Carden to make
arrangements to meet the exigencies of the case, and to
bring back the girl. to her parents under any circum-
stances ; and the former, upon representing the particu-
lars of the transaction at the office of the Steam Naviga-
tion Company, to which the vessel in which the girl
bad sailed belonged, was most readily offered a passage
and supplied with ad the information they possessed as
to the apparently sanctioeed practices of the Hamburg
procurers.
Upon arriving at Hamburg Smith found that the girl

was detained by authorities in consequence of the
telegraphic message, but he found also that the Belgian
procuress vas determined to make every effort to secure
her prey notwithstanding the interposition of the police,
and that she had actually assured the officials that
the young woman had accompanied her from Eng-
land under a regular engagement to receive the visits
of gentlemen. In order, ale ), to increase the exer-
tions of the police, with whom she appeared to be
on very good terms, she charged the poor girl with bay-
ing robbed her parents of al., and referred to a letter
found in her pocket, but not at all liable to any construc-
tion of the kind as evidence of her dishonesty. 'When
Smith endeavoured to convince the Hamburg police
that such a ebarge was a wicked misrepresentation, ho
found them very incredulous, but he succeeded perfectly
in the object of his mission, and safely placed the girl
on board this steamer, which was about to return. The
young woman, who was by this timely interposition of
the London magistrate saved from destruction, com-
plained much of the attempts of a person who, she was
told, was the doctor appointed to examine all the fresh
female arrivals under engagements to the base wretch by
whom she had been forced on board ; and Smith soon
'miled that there were several new importations, and
that the system, ferocious as it was, most extensively
prevailed. He determined to bring back to Sir R. W.
Carden all the information he could collect, and certainly
the description he gave of the condition of several poor
English girls, who were detained by the procuresses and
panders on the pretext of debt, who are anxious to re-
turn to their parents, was calculated, as the alderman
said, to fill any one's heart with compassionate anguish.
He accordingly waited upon Col. Hodges, the British
Consul, and stated the circumstances under which he had
visited Hamburg, and the particulars of which ho had
been an eyewitness there, and soon learnt that the con-
sul was perfectly aware that the atrocious traffic had
been carried on for some time, and constantly lamented
the deplorable condition of the poor girls who were in-
duced to leave their homes to be plunged into such abo-
mination. He represented that the authorities in Lon-
don, by whom he had been sent to inquire into the facts
and to snatch one victim. at any rate, from the conta-
mination which had awaited so many, were anxiously
expecting the interposition of the Englis Consul ; and
Colonel Hodges replied that nothing would give him
higher gratification than the power of checking so
monstrous an evil, but that the immediate interfer-
ence of Lord Clarendon world, in his opinion, be neces-
sary before much good could be effected in the way of
counteraction, and that it would be advisable to present
a memorial to that Minister for an inquiry into the case.
The Vice-Consul added his testimony to that of his su-
perior, and mentioned several heart-rending cases, pre-
senting new pictures of the horrors of the prostitution
thus apparently sanctioned.
The two officers waited upon Sir R. W. Carden to
make their report, and were accompanied by Susannah
Evans, and her father and mother, who he tears ex-
pressed their gratitude to the Alderman for the service
which had been done for them, and, they hoped, for the
community. The young woman detailed, but in an
almost unintelligible manner, the scenes she had wit-
nessed. The Belgian Jewess had, she stated, been
generally accompanied by two ill-looking men, whom
she had seen in Lambert-street on the day which she
spent in the house there, and who had sailed to Ham-
burg in the vessel with her, and constantly watched her
steps.
Sir R. W. Carden said the officers had done their
duty with the skill and propriety which he expected to
see exercised by them upon all occasions. He rejoiced
that the application had bees made to him, and con-
gratulated the father and mother of the girl who had so
narrowly escaped upon the complete success which had
attended the exertions made to prevent a most serious
calamity. He had no doubt at all that measures would
speedily be taken to put an end, at all events to give an
important check to, a traffic the most cruel and revolt-
ing that could be imagined.

GUILDHALL.—Henry Sheen, Mary Ann Delap,
and Elizabeth ~ryas were charged with being concerned
with two men, named Flynn and Geary (who were await-
ing their trial for that offence), with breaking the win-
dow of Mr. Walter's shop in Aldersgate-street, on the
27th of February last, and stealing therefrom gold and
silver watches and jewelery to the amount of about 1001.
The evidence against the prisoners merely weat to
show that they were in the vicinity of Mr. Walter's shop
at the time of the robbery.
Alderman Sidney said there was nothing to criminate
the prisoners, and they were therefore discharged.

BOW-STREET.—A post-office letter-carrier, named
James waa charged with stealing a money-
letter.

The prisoner bad been detected in the usual manner,
by means of a test letter containing marked money and
postage stamps, which he should in due course have de.
livered. Having abstracted the letter, he spent the
money in drink, and was apprehended the same night
in a state of intoxication. The marked stamps were
found upon him.
He was committed for trial.

A labourer named John Burn, who for 20 years past
Lai worked at the British Museum, fur Messrs. Baker
and Son, contractors, was charged, on remand, with
attempting to steal a portion of the bell of the old Mu-
seum clock.

It seems that the bell, which was kept in the store-
room, was Nrfectly whole and sound up to the sth inst.,
when it was found to have been broken. A. watch was
constantly kept by Sergeant Williamson, of the detective
force, until Monday, the 10th inst. At about 5 o'clock
in the afternoon of that day, the sergeant, being in an
adjoining room, heard the sound of a heavy blow on the
bell, and on hurrying to the spot caught, the prisoner,
who was trying to escape by the window. He was very
drunk. The lower portion of the bell had been again
broken, and a heavy sledge-hammer lay beside it.
It was represented by Mr. Lewis, for the defence, the
this was an net of drunken wantonness on the pars of
the prisoner, who had not intended to carry away the
fragments of the bell. Mr. Lewis suggested that., had
that been his purpose, he would hardly have used so
noisy a weapon as a sledge-hammer, nor would he have
pr: ceeiled to get of the window without his booty. He
('sir. Lewis) trusted the magistrate would treat the case
as one of wilful damage, and not destroy the good cha-
racter the prisoner had maintained 20 years by commit-
ting- him for attempted felony.
Mr. Henry, believing that ajury would probably take
the view of the case suggested by Mr. Lewis, convicted
the prisoner under the Wilful Damage Act, and inflicted
a penalty of 51., or in default one month's imprisonment.
On hearing the sentence the prisoner, who had not
previously spoken a word, exclaimed, with an oath, that
he did not break the bell.
He was then removed.

WESTMINSTER.--George Edinonson, Thomas Ven-
tuin, and John Abbott were charged with burqlariously
breaking and entering the dwelling-house of Mr. West,
10, Manor•street, Chelsea, and stealing therein a quan-
tity of wearing apparel and other property, valued be-
wren 401. and 501.

The prisoners were remanded til Saturday.
A young man and woman, respectably attired, who
de,cribel thenvolves as man and wife, entreated the
magistrate's advice in the fallowing matter :
They stated that the young woman's mother, who had
been maintained by them for the last two months, died
on Sunday morning, when, as her two sons were per-
sons in very affluent circumstances, application was
made to them to bury the deceased, but, unfortunately
