STATE OF TRADE.
(From the Manchester Guardian.)
MANCIIESTEIt, TUESDAY.—The increased excess of
receipts at the American ports has contributed to a still
further weakening of public confidence in the present
value of the raw material; and this effect has, in its
turn, operated utifavouranly upon the market for yarns
and goods. In general, an impression that some fur-
ther . decline in prices must take place has kept the
buyers y.'ry much aloof from business; and the a4gre-
gate of the da"'s transactiens is thereore inconsiderable.
'lh-re in some respects, a good deal of variance be-
tween the experience of different persons—some having
bad more offers or found rather more inquiry; others
making an opposite statement; all agreeing, however,
as to an unfavourable tendency in prices. There is no
doubt that the German merchants (whose advices show
an active consumption at home, with very scanty sup-
plies) are restrained from operating lamely
in yarns,
rolely by the view above re:erred to; arid, as it is, Porno
of thy in have been induced, by the concession of or
id. per lb., to venture upon purchtves of fair amount.
Same i,f the makers of domestics have also succeeded in
selling on slightly reduced terms. •
noCHDALE, MONDAY.—There has been
a quiet market
to-da) ; a thin attendance of buyers, and a 119,ited num-
ber of sales. The wool market has been dull, with litle
duietr, and prices stationary.
We have no alteration to

being Easter

Mond ,y, most of the warehouses were
usual holidays. In thrown silk. there is absolutely no-
thing doing, the recent transactions in raw, which it is
now ascertained were done at a reduction of ls. 6J. per
lb. on previous prices, havieg destroyed all confidence
fur the present.
TIJESDIT.—In our market of to-day
EIUDDERSFIEL
flittwas has prevailed, and generally not so much bu,i-
ness is transacted on a holiday Tuesday. The stocks in
the Clouds Ball are visibly on the increase; and the trade.
Woollens, of the lower qualities, is flat at pre-
sent. A fair business has been done in the fancy trade;
and light goods, of new puterns, have taken very freely.
The
waTenousc-.9 have been doing a fair home tr .de dur-
iag the week. The export warehouses are flat at present.
HALIFAX SATIMDAY.—There were not many buyers
in our Piece Hall to-day; and they manifested great
settle ance to purchase to any extent. There is more
doing in yarn, and the quotations exhibit a little more
firinuess. The same may be said of wool, which is selling
more traly, at fully late rites.
LEEDS, I•CEsDAY We nave had only a quiet market
to-nay at the Cute Halls, but there bac been a fair quan-
tity ef goods delivered to order. Business continues
rather dull in the warehouses for the home trade; but
the shipping houses are busier.

THE CHARGEAGAINST THE MASTER
OF ST. PAI‘CRAS WORKHOUSE.

Oa Tuesd4y the usual wek kty coveting or toe oirectors
and gu4rdians of the poor was het t in the Board-room
of St. Pancras Workhouse, Mr. Churchwarden Bltsr in
the chair.
Alter some general conversation respecting the charge
preferred against the mater of the workhouse,
Mc. E. HICK:HAN said that he observed in the report of
the proceeding, befure the mogistrate, that Mr. Combo
ordMed that the master shouia have no communication
with the girl Edz t H. (sir. IL) did Lot under-
stand how the magi,trate's order could be enforced v+ hile
the master was in full pa-session of his olEcv, which he
continued to execute.—(H-ar, hear.)
Me. Churchvvarden FRAZER said that every card was
taken to prevent the comusunication. The girl was
placed ucder the care of a paid nurse, who was directed
to prevent her seeing the waster or any one else, except-
ing the surgeon.
Mr. liICKMA.N—Who could or who dare prevent
the master seeing or speaking with the girl? If any
one dared to prevent him he (the master) could discharge
the person.
Mr. Coos. (the clerk)—lf the nurse disobeyed the or-
ders of the board she would be dismissed.—(Hear.)
Mr. HICKMAN cared nothing about ‘• ifs" or buts,"
he only wished to be informed whether all communica-
tion tier ween the master and toe girl was prevented?
Mr. Churchwarden FRAZER—The aorta was ordered
not to allow any communication between them; and
way further inturmed that a disobedience of the order
of th, hoard would be attended with her dismissal.
Mr. UICKMAN put the question as a matter of duty,
becauae Mr. Combo had emphatically forbid any com-
munication between the master and his accuser.
. Mr. Cooss—That was not correct, for Mr. Combe not
only interdicted all communication between the master
and the girl, but also between her playmates, and all par-
ties likely to influence her.—(Hear.)
Mr. HlCKMAN—Justice to the master, to the girl, to
the public, and to themselves, rendered it necessary
that the magistrate's order should be strictly observed.

Mr. DANE—And so it MIS.
Mr. Churchwarden FRAZER—She was not left in care
of the schnolmivrress, b‘ecau4e a repnrt prevai:ed that a
bad feeling exis'ed between her and the master.
Tne subject here dropePd. the nnard adjourned.

THE FitIiVILEY GANG.
EXTRAORDINARY DISCLOSURES.

LEWES, TIIESDAY.—Since the committal of James
llamil',on (the magistrates having refined to take his
evidence on behalf of the Crown), he has made a fall
confession of all the burglaries which he and the gang
hive been engaged in during the last twelve months.
The document is of a very evraordinary character, and
shows the immense amount of daring posses,ed by these
He has also made tome revelations to the police
officers engaged in the case, by which they have been
enablA to discover the receivers of the stolen property,
but from obvious reasons we are at present prevented
from mentioning their names. It is, however, believed
that some portion of the great amount of valuable pro-
perty watch has been stolen may yet be restored to the
owners.

Hamilton, in the commencemento of his confession,
states • that the gang consisted
wood and Samuel J ft himself, Lani Her-
- one+ (,huzufmorantihemurder of Mr,
Holiest), Samuel Harwood, Edwardjt Isaacs,
Wirliatn Brooks, Joseph Carter. John and
alit
amsems Hones,,
alias smith, Hiram Smith, Thomas Toot,
William Hillyer, John Brooks, Mary Crowder, Sarah
White, and James Junes. John I-sacs was duly elected
captain, and all the others acted under his direction
Tdey were all sworn to obey the orders of the captain,
and if-any one attempted to back out, or refused to take
part in any robbery or murder, if necessary, he or she
Wara to be instantly shot; and if any one left the gang
without the consent of the captain, he or she were to be
followed, and if overtaken to be shot."

ford, which has been already published, he goes on to

thorn-common, where we had four tents.. About
an
hour after I had left the men, and bad returned to CoP-
thorn-coMmon-and was packing up my things, two
licemen came along. They knew Brooks's wife, andtn-
t
quired for Brooks; and they came and asked me where
I was going? I told them I did not know, as I was a
stranger to the country. They searched the tents, but
they did not search me, although I had the money on
me which I had shared. This was the same morning
as the robbery at Hayward's-heath. Whilst the men
were sharing the money the women hid the clothes, and
that was wby the policemen did not find them. The po-
licemen knew the women, and watched them, and talked
to them for half an hour. I then moved to a place called
the Chesnut., by myself, but one Sent with John

I2aacs's wife, afterwards came there. The two 4rooksea
and John lia,acs and myself bad each oilb wife
and one tent, and I had a little girl with

my wife. John Isaacs was to meet me at
the Chesnuts", after he had sold the property. He was
gone a week or better. When ha came back he said
there was only 30s. each, besides the guineas, of which
he had only sold one, with the other gold, to see what
it would fetch, keeping the others back, so that the
Guildford mau should not have his share of them. He
took the guineas again to sell, and gave me a sovereign
down, on a promise to pay me the remainder; but he did
not give me any more money. There was a quarrel amongst
us about a large quantity of plate, which some of them
said Isaacs had concealed and bought his waggela with-

Heufield, in Sussex, and I and Ned Isaacs went back
again with Brooks. We all three met in Winchamd

line, neat Henfield, and from there to a place cal:e
Hamnledon, Surrey, to break open a shop there. B(ooks
and Ne f Isaacs broke it open, whilst I watched in front;
they got in and took out two large old cheeses, a quantity
of tobacco, and a quantity of tea, and about a pound
weight of snuff, a loaf of bread, and a pound of new
butter. They drunk what wine they liked, and brought
me out some in a quart pot, and then filled a three quart
bot;le to bring away. We three returned back to
and I uud Ned Isaacs did nut meet
W inch an-lane again,
John I,aacs at the tune expectid. We aferwards went
to Copthurn-common fur Es iew days; I think we itayed
there a week.
On the afternoon of Tuesday, the 31st of December
last. we, James Hamilton, John Li 44CS, Joseph Carter,
alias Cockrnan, John Smith, alias Hones, James Smith,
alias lienes, Themai Toot, alias Morgan, William Hill
yvr, and William Brooks met. After various mes,ages
and communications between ourselves, I (Hamilton)
and Brooks and his wife, and James Smith, came on
from Edenbridge to Crowboroa;h. The other five men
whom we met at Elenbri,ige agreed to meet us at
Groombridge, at a barn there just outside. These five
men went to break open a public-house of Master Ken-
nard's, called the Oid Pie. These five men met us out

of Groombridge next morning, just about daylight.
Brooks went to look after them, and found them in the
corner of the wood clerk, to the road. Trey geve us a
plum-cake and a bottle of wine, and some whisky, and
tebicco dune up in pennyworths. I (Hamilton) had
four, James Smith had four. We (same) three men and
the wo•ean went on again, having agreed to meet the
Eve men the same afternoon (Wednesday) just off
Orowborough-common, in a foreign on the tlekfitla
side. Three of us, Isaacs, Carter, and myself, went
into Miss Farncombe's house, and gut there between
eight and nine o'clock to lay in front tithe house and
see how many lights and watch th.m to bed. We saw
the latter fasten the front door. When the house was
dark and quiet we were to go back te some haystacks
close by, where we eight were to meet until it was time
to go. We all met at the haystack between the pay gate
and the house, on the opposite side to Miss Ferncombe's.
We all went to Miss Farncombe's house, and as we were
going we met a woman and either two or three men on
the road. We were all- eight together then. We had
left Brooks's wife back at her uncle's, at Crowborougb.
There are two gates to Miss Farncombe's house, one for
a foot road leading to the beck dour, and one the carriage
road. We left James Smith just inside the little gate to
watch. Some of us went down the big gate, having me
(Hamilton) to catch these in case any one came along
be road, and to give notice if any one should. Torte or
tour men came along soon afterwards. I watched them
safe away, and did not give any alarm to those in thi
house. In a little while two more men came along and
passed. I think they were gamekeepers. Just befor'
they got into toe house, one of them came out to me
end said,. • I am going to stand near that little bush.'
Thomas Morgan and he desired me to give him notice
any one c 'tee, and he would let teem Reuse. Wheu the
two gam keepers came along I snit to telt I/Orgill, gird
did nut find him; and soon after he (elorg.n) cruse to
we and brought me a bottle of wine. He said they
had got in, and were rutematsine below. Morgan wen:
bark to the house, and a little atterwards he returned to
me again, and he said, • They be all come out, and they
think they heard somebody.' They all came out up to
this little gate, and there tney all stripped and pulled oft
their clothes and shoes, and pat on their masks, and said,
•We will tali go up.' We were all eight together then•.
I left the gate to meet them, and after talking about
. leaving some one ourside, we all agreed to go into the
house together. We all eight went in through the pautry
window, but Morgan, who was first ready, ran forward
to the house and got a light. We seven, seeing the light,
thought there was somebody come down. Isaacs, with
an oath, said, Oh, come alone:, follow me; give me the
pistols, and I will go and fix him.' When we got to the
house we found it was Morgan with the light. Then we
all went in through the pantry window to the kitchen or
front parlour, where we found the butler's coats and
some of the females' bonnets. Brooks put one of the
bonnets on, and Carter put un another; and we put the
butler's coats on, and I (Hamilton) put one on handed
me by Morgan. We all searched about the house. W.
found the canisters. Four of us went up one
pair of stairs, and four the other. Isaacs, John
Smith and myself, and another, went up one stair-
case. The first room we went into there were two
ladies. ',sacs gave me the candle, and I followed
him. There was no violence in that room. Isaac:.
broke open everything that was broken open, and I held
the candle to him. Issacs asked the ladies where the
plate was. The ladies said, • That is in the pantry,
down stairs.' Isaacs and the others took all the valuable
things in that room. They went into another room,
leaving me behind, holding the candle. I did not take
anything in that room. They left me there to mind the
doors, and the ladies begged of me to go outside, for
they would be still. 1 had a mask on all that time. I
went outside, holding the door in my hand. I never
left the door but once ail the time the rest were rum-
waging about the house, and that was while they were
going into another room where there was, I believe, only
one lady. I heard the lady scream, and ask, Is that.
you, William?' I said, Yes, it is William, maul,
don't be frightened; nothing is the matt--r.' Carter was
at the door with a pistol in his hand, and when I made
answer, It is William,' he turned round and was
going to shoot me, only I sung out, all right.'
Then I returned back to the door again to mind the
two ladies, and there I remained until they were all
ready to leave the house. Isaacs returned back to the
room where I was, and said, Take that little box under
your arm.' The ladies had before that begged that it
might not be taken, because it belonged to their grand-
tether, I think they said. I took the box down stairs.
amid we all went away together. This was between fuur
anti five o'clock iu the morning. When we came out
we turned to the left and went up the road. We al►
eight kept together until we cattle to Crowborough-
common, to the sorest near the road as we came. We
turned off the main road at the top of the hill to the

let'', and went across the common and a wheat-field anti
down into a wood, and there we all eight sat down, and
had some breakfast from what we had brought from the
house, consisting of some hare, veal, roast mutton, and
I think some hog's-meat, some loaves of breed, two
whole cheeses, amid two raw hams. We all shared this
after breakfast, a sovereign and 7s. each iu money, but
there was a deal more money smuggled amongst them
selves. I (Hamilton) bad a 51. note also, which I got
out of a pocket-book which Isaacs gave me as we went
along to carry, and put it into my pocket. There was a
good many more notes in the book. I gave him the book.
and Isaacs took out the notes and gave me the book
agein, because the others knew I had gut the book. He
said he would give me half what he got for the notes
This was going along before our breakfast. After the
breakfast and after the sharing of the money we looked
the plate over, and broke up what we thought was not
silver. There were two gold watches and two silver
ones; the two gold watches were along with the plate,
and tne silver plate which came from the Old Pie public-
house was put along with it. The two silver watches
were put up amongst us for those who would give most
tor them. Carter was the highest biddy r at Ils. for the
small watches; and the other one, a double cased one,
was taken by Morg la for 255. I' he trinket, were all
ti•-d up togeth,r and put with the plate. bates took all
the plate, &c. in a fl ig basket. A cutlass w is taken Irma
the house. and a tree chopped with it. Hillyer took the
cutlass. We stayed in the wood until nearly ten o'clobk in
the morning. We parted at the wood that Thursday
morning. I and James Smith and John Smith came away
and parted from the other live, who went another way up
through toe wood. We agreed to meet at another place,
and before Lases took toe plate to L )ndon we were
all eight to meet at Wallitigham on tne Fridity night.
We three went on to Groom bridge, and John Smith was
so tired that we could Dot get him along the road. We
went into the public-house at Grotimnridc, where we
had a good deal of beer. We there got tipsy. I dropped
a sovereign, and John Smith picked it up and put it into
his picket, and took a shilling out of the other pocket
amid offered it to me. I hid him taken by the constable.
The sovereign I dropp d was what was Oven me in the
wood. The constable took John Smith into custody
upon my charge to Tunbridge Wells that (Thursday)
atternoon. I slept at Groombridge tnat night in the inn,
and James Smith was put into the stable. Wheo I was
tiPsY the laadlord took 184. 61 from me to take care of.
In the morning, when I gA up, I asked the landlady for
my money, which she re used to give me until she had
seenh the constaole. I went to the constable, and told
ort I would rather lose the sovereign, and pay
ainnd
his expenses, than go on with it. Toe constable
told
me the expenses to make it up would be a so-
vereign;ht I had betcerleaawvaeythas
e
18s. 6d6d.
y*
's hands, and get
fast as I could, rather than go to the Wells. I and
James Smith started on the road for Tunbridge Wells,
and then turned into a wood; and after we had got two
miles half a dozen
persons were after us, and took us.
The beginning of all this was I was living at Woking-
common with my wife, and Eituyer lodged with me.
About a week before Christmas a man named Thomas
Gaines came to me at Woeing-common, with a
message
from Isaacs to send Hillyer after Tom Toot, alias
Morgan, to Shotter's mill, at Sarsams. Idillyer started
away the day after Christmas-day after Toot, and re-
turned with Toot to my house on the Saturday, and
Issues was to come himself by the first third-class train
from Reading to Woking, and I was to meet him. I met
him there. lie came to my house the same Saturday
afternoon, expecting to flud Hillyer and Toot that Satur-
dayh did nut come. Isaacs stayed with night. They me
all Sunday night. Isaacs went alone on Sunday morning
to Edenbridge, and on the way met the two Hones, alias
Smiths, and asked them to be of the party. Toot and
Hillyer were there before us. Brooks and Carter were
there also. That made eight."
It is estimated that the amount of property stolen by
these men during the last two years cannot be less then
1,,,1.54301- When Isaacs was apprehended at Frome Mr.
the superintendent of the Tunbridge Wells
Police, succeeded in tracing to the possession of the pri-
soner a valuable diamond ring, a gold chain, and a silver
hunting watch, which were a portion of the property
stolen from the Misses Farnoombe in December last.
These articles were on his person, and in the house
where he was staying, Mr. wateu immediately seized

them, and the friends of the prisoner firthwith applied
to the county court at Frome, and procured a summons,
which has been served on Mr. Morton for the amount of
10/. 10s., the alleged value of the articles.
It will be seen, from the statements above given, that
the band of burglars known as the " Frimley gang" is
now c impletely broken up. At the last sitting of the
magistrates, the Chairman of the bench publicly stated
that the whole credit of the capture of these daring men,
and the exposure of their system, was due to Mr. Bid-
deleombe, the superintendent of the Surrey police.

into an interesting conversation. The Rev. Dr. was formerly

and the northern parts of Scotland, including the Orkneys
and classical lona, the burial place of St. Columba and of a

MIDDLESEX SESSIOIVS, April 23.
(Before Mr. Sergeant ADAMS, Assistant Judge.)

John Thomas Cox, 46, WAS indicted for unlaWftilly
publishing and having for sale a number of obscene
and indecent prints and publications.
Mr. Clarkson appeared for the prosecution (which
was instituted by the Society for tne Suppression of
Vice) ; and Mr. Payne for the prisoner.
The evidence in support of the prosecution was
shortly this :—lnspector Lewis, of the Tnames Police,
who was also an officer under the Beard of Customs,
and Police sergeant Chadwick, went to a shop kept
by the prisoner, N 0.4, Holy well-street, and there, in
the prisoner's presence, and without any opposition
on his part, took possession of a large quantity of
window-tickets and an immense number of prints
(chiefly French) and books, which were now pro-
duced, and which were of a must disgusting cha-
racter.

Mr. PAYNE, on behalf of the prisoner, said he had
no defence whatever to offer with reference to the
morality or immorality of the prisoner's conduct, but
he contended thatin point of law the evidence did not
ender the prisoner liable to conviction, inasmuch as
it was not shown that he had the prints and books
in his possession openly and expressly for the pur-
pose of selling them, as the indictment charged, to
her Majesty's subjects, or that he had exposed them in
a manner that infringed the law. The prisoner was
charged simply with having them in his possession,
with intent to sell and publish, and that, he submitted,
was not sufficient.

The Learned JUDGE, in summing up, told the jury
that in his opinion, if they were satisfied that the pri-
soner bad the horrible prints and books produced in
his possession with the intention of publishing and
selling them, they
.would be perfectly justified in
finding him guilty, intimating at the same time, that
if the prisoner's counsel thought proper to take the
point he had rained to the Court of Criminal Appeal,
there would be no objection to his doing so.
The jury found the prisoner Guilty.
Mr. CLARKSON said that in 1847 a similar seizure
had been made upon the prisoner's premises, when an
immense number of prints, &c., were destroyed, but
the society did not prosecute him on account of his
family, and he sent a letter, which be (Mr. Clark-
son) would now hand to the Court, to the solicitors of
the society. ( The letter was handed to the bench.)
The Learned JUDGE read the letter. It was as
follows :

" 10, Holywell-street, Nov. 19, 1847.
" Gentlemen,—l am desirous through your medium to
express to the committee of the Society for the Suppres-
sion of Vice the very grateful feelings they have ex-
cited, by sparing myself and family from the disgrace
and ruin which must inevitably have fallen upon
them and . myself, had the prosecation which im-
pended over me been permitted to proceed. Much
of the time that has elapsed since the committee had
the goodness to pardon my fault has been spent in
serious reflection on the nature and consequences
of the offence I committed, which I view with so much
detestation and abhorrence as to make it impossible that
any temptation of profit, or any degree of security that
could be offered against detection or punishment, amount-
ing even to a certainty of escape, could shake for one
moment my fixed determination to abandon for ever a:1
traffic in these infamous and dangerous productions. It
is, indeed, greatly to be deplored that any such publica-
tions ever should have existence, or .that writers can be
f eind so thoughtless of the consequences to society, and
so lost to shame as to prostitute their talents to the com-
pilation of works so eminently calettlatel to undermine
;be virtue of youth, and to spread contagion and immo-
rality in every rank, and I entreat the committee to be-
heve that not only shall I never again suffer any such
pollution to reach my possession, but that to the utmost
of my power I shall discountenance and denounce every
attempt to give them circulation by others when any such
shall come within my ob,ervation or knowledge. Such,
gentlemen, are the sincere and contrite sentiments of
my heart, in the expression of which I find great relief
and pleasure, and which I have to beg you will do me
the favour of laying before the committee at the first
convenient oppertueity, and taking leave to repeat my
very greatful thanks for the lenity they have shown me,
of which I am firmly resolved to prove myself worthy,
" I remain, Gentlemen, with great respect,
Your most obedient servant,
" JOHN TIIO3ISS COX.

" Messrs. Pritchard and Co., Lincoln's Inn-tields."
The Learned JUDGE then proceeded to say that the
Court required no other grounds for passing a severe
sentence than those stated by the prisoner himself in
his letter. The sentence of the Court was (and he
was sincerely sorry he had not the power to award
hard labour) that he be imprisoned in the House of
Correction for two years, that he afterwards should
enter into his own recognizance of 50/., wi h two sure-
ties of 25/. each, to be of good behaviour for one year,
and be imprisoned until such recognizance and sure-
ties be entered into.

Emma Thomas, a respectably-dressed young
woman, was indicted for stealing from the person of
Wilheltnina Wagner a purse, and the sum of 51. ss. 6d.
Mr. Addison appeared for the prisoner.
Mr. Kieloch, a tradesman in Jereayn-street, stated
that, on the 7th inst., he was in an omnibus going
nrom the Haymarket to the City, and the prosecutrix
was also a passenger in the same vehicle. In the Hay-
market the prisoner and two other females entered the
omnibus. The prisoner sat next to him, and the other
women took seats on the opposite side, next to the
prosecutrix. One of them had a basket, and he saw
h'-r hand fumbling about the prosecutrix's dress.
Directly afterwards she gave a significant nod
to the prisoner, who thereupon desired a pas-
senger whu sat nearest the door to request the
conductor to stop, which he did, and the prisoner and
the two women, with whom she entered the omnibus,
got out. Witness noticed in the hand of the woman
who had the basket, the end of a scarlet purse, where-
upon he spoke to the prosecutrix, and having ascer-
tained that she had been robbed, be got out of the om-
nibus and, accompanied by the prosecutrix, followed
the women. The one that had the basket got away.
When the women got out the omnibus was at the
Gulden cross, Charing-cross, and he followed the
prisoner and one of her companions round into Tra-
falgar-square. They crossed over towards Spring-
gardens, when, perceiving that they were followed,
they ran towards a court They parted at the end of
Spring-garden- mews. He followed the prisoner,
captured her, and had her taken to Scotland-yard in
custody. The other got away.
The prosecutrix, a German lady, proved that when
she entered the omnibus, her purse, which was a
scarlet one, and which contained a 51 note and ss. G 1.
in silver, was safe in her pocket, and that when Mr.
Kinloch spoke to her it was gone.
Police-constable Budd, 59 A, produced a purse,
which he found torn in two in Spring garden- mews,
near the spot passed by the woman who got away.
The prosecutrix identified the purse as hers.
Mr. AoutsoN, in his address to the jury, said the
prisoner was a respectable woman, the wife of a car-
ver and gilder, and the mother of a family. Her
answer to the charge was, that on the day in question
she was proceeding from her home to the Westmins-
ter Hospital, in reference to the case of one of her
children, who was deformed, and that it was purely
by accident that she got into the omnibus with the
two other women spoken of. The reason she got
when they did was, that when the omnibus stopped
to let them out she found that she was going in the
wrong direction, end therefore took that opportunity
to leave the vehicle. It was entirely by accident
that she was mixed up in this transaction, the woman
she walked towards Spring gardens with having, at
her request, undertaken to show her the nearest way
to Westminster Hospital, which, she said, was
through Spring-gardens and thence through Storey's-
gate.

- Mrs. Gordon, a woman of respectable appearance,
said, the prisoner was a married woman and the
mother of a family. She was a person of unques •
ionable character. One of her children was de-
formed. She lived in the Old Kent-road.

The Learned JUDGE summed up the case with
great minuteness, and remarked that it was unex-
plained how it was that whilst the prisoner lived in
the Old Kent. road, she took an omnibus in the Hay-
market to go to Westminster Hospital.
The jury returned a verdict of Not Guilty.
The prisoner, who had cried bitterly throughout
the trial of the case, on hearing the verdict, exclaimed,
" Oh, thank God P' and she left the court with a
number of persons who appeared to be anxiously
awaiting the result.

POLICE IN TELLIGENCE.
BOW-STREET.

An elderly man, named Thomas Gordon, was
charged with obtaining money by representing that
he had claims on the Government.

It appeared froin the evidence that the prisoner
took apartments at No. 2, Bedford-row, Streatham,
representing that he was a half-pay lieutenant in the
navy, and would on the 23d inst. be entitled to 1001
as pension, in confirmation of which he requested of
Mrs. Pearce, the landlady, to accompany him to the
Admiralty to get the money, and to assist him with
five shillings to defray the expenses of his journey
there and back, to which she agreed ; but on arriving
with her at Whitehall he contrived to slip aside, and
after a short absence came back to say that the money
would not be paid until the next day, in consequence
of which they remained in town, and at the hour ap-
pointed next day, having made the same excuse, be
made inquiries of the messenger, who informed her
that no such person was entitled to a pension of the
Admiralty, and that several frauds had been practised
by such means. He was then given in charge.
The prosecutrix's sister, who corroborated her
statement, stated that the prisoner had said in her
hearing that he was entitled to prize money, having
fought at the battle of Angiers ; that his toes had been
carried away by a shot on board the Ocean in the
engagement.
Sergeant Thornton, a detective officer, said that
several cases of a similar description could be brought
against the prisoner if he was remanded.
The prisoner being closely questioned by the ma-
gistrate, said be had been a mats on board a collier,

and had been a number of years in India, and also
-referred to Captain Eden, who he said would give him
a character.
Mr. HENRY, considering the case required further
investigation, ordered the prisoner to be remanded.
CLERKEN WELL.
John Henry Eaton appeared to his bail, to answer
the charge of having violated Eliza Smith, a pauper
girl in the workhouse of St. Pancras.
The particulars of the case have already been de—
tailed in our columns.
The most intense interest was manifested, and the
court was crowded to excess by the parish authorities
and others who felt an interest in the case.
Mr. Ballantine attended for the prosecution ; and
Mr. Richard Field, on account of the London Society
for the Protection of Young Females, was also in at.
tendance to watch the proceedings. Mr. Huddleston,
with Mr. Wontner, attended for the defence.
What took place was a mere reiteration of what
occurred on the first examination, and the defendant
was remanded.

property or the Board of Orinance. I 1-ft toy office
between half past one and half-past two o'clock on the
Bth. The money was safe then. I first heard of the
robbary about half-past six on the following morning. I
found the office door open, and the chest presenting all
the appearance of having been forced open by gun-
powder. The numbers of the stGlen n,tt,s ace from

John Barker exantinei—l am office-keeper and mes-
senger at the Royal Gunpowder Works. I remember
having locked the door of the outer office on the evening
of the Bth instant, about 20 minutes past 5 o'clock. I
put the key in my pocket, and went into my garden, which
adjoins the office. From this plsee I should have a
view of the office, but not of the door. I afterwards
came home to my cottage, near the entrance-ga'e, and
hung up the key as usual. I locked the ou er d• or
and ono inner door, and I saw that the other inner door
was shut. I sv,nt to the office next morning about ten
minutes past six o'clock. The outer door was un-
locked. On entering, I found the shutter of the lobby
open, and the window flung up; this window was be-
fore I got to the first inner door. The inner door had
been forced open, and was in splinters. I Saw that the
next inner door had also been oiloken open, and then I
came away. I went and asked the master mixer, John
Fleming, to come and look. Ho came, and I then locked
the outer door, and went for Mr. Topping, who came
with other gentlemen. I know Cornish and Eve. They
were mixing-house men and watchmen, and would, in
turn, be on duty as night watchmen. Their rounds on
Sunday and on holiday nights would be where this
office was.

William Lane was next called. After the oath had
been administered,

Mr. Griffiths, addressing the witness from the bench,
said in his capacity as a magistrate, he had understood
that he had been threatened, in the event of his giving
any information as to the robbery. The bench were
desirous he should understand that he might rely upon
them for protection, and they hoped the witness would
not be afraid to speak the truth.
The witness thanked the magistrate, and proceeded to
make the following extraordinery statement:—
I am a gunsmith employed at Enfisldslock, and reside
at Waltham Ahbey. I know the tour prisuuers. I re-
member being at Rowe's puhlic-house on the evening
after the robbery, about eight o'clock. Griffiths was
there when I went in. He called me out of the tap-
' room, and we went together outside of the door into
the yard. He said, " Btll, I suppose you have beard of
what was done last night?" " What?" I said. lie re-
plied," The robbery at the Powder Mills." I said, "Yes."
He said. "Cornish and Eve are the two that done it." I
said, " How do you know?" He replied, "I fetched the
tools from Frank Hervey's field, and gave them to Cor-
nish." Frank Harvey's field is just below the Compasses.
Griffilhs added, " I had to be in it, but I was shoved
out of it." We retured into the house. Rowe was there.
He said to me, " What has Jess been saying to 3 ou?" I
said, " Nothing." He then said, " What have you been
saying to Jess?" 1 replied, " Nothing." Rowe, then,
making ti,e of an oath, said. " your eyes, I will
make you as right,as myself if I get hold of the notes."
I said, " Hold your tongue, you can tell me another
time." Nothing else took place tha; night. Charles
Colverd. Edward Speller, Charles Eve, and his brother,
Joseph Eve, were present at the time. I can't say that
these persons heard what Rowe said to me. Grifils, I
think, did. On the Thursday evening I again went to
Rowe's house about seven or eight o'clock. When I
wont in Cornish ani Rowe were in the tap-room by
themselves. I was there about an hour; nothing took
place during that time, but as I 1, ft the house Rowe fol-
lowed me out and said, " Cornish wants me to go to
London and see what I can get for the notes." He said,
" I shall go up in the morning with King the horse
dealer." He told me there were eighteen 201. notes. On
the following day I was at the Compasses from halt-past
four to five. I sew Rowe then. He said, "I have been
to London, and I can get 151. for each of the 20/. notes.
which will make 270/." He added, " I have not got the
notes yet, but I expect Cornish will come down with
them to-night; he promised me he would." I stopped
there till about eight o'clock. I then went out, and said
to Rowe, " Has he been?" He said, "Yes; but he does
not like to let me have the notes, for fear I should stick
to the lot." He added that Cornish had said, "It would
be a pretty thing if he stuck to the lot, and did us all
out of them." Rowe said he had told Cornish that if he
was afraid to let him have the whole of the notes, to let
him have half, and he would get the money for them
first. About ten o'clock on the same night Rowe
came to my house and asked me to lend him
my stick. I asked him, " Have you got the notes?"
He said, "Yes." He added, "I have a great mind
to go off to-night. I shall get there before they get to
bed." On the Saturday, about six o'clock in the even-
ing, Rowe came to my house, and beckoned me out. He
says, " Here's a pretty thing, I can only get rid of two
of those notes out of the eighteen." I asked " Wh3?"
He said, " Because they had not got the banker's signa-
ture on them." I did not understand what he meant.
He said he had got 301. for the two notes he had-changed.
and that be should stick to. He said be should return
the other notes to Cornish. I have seen Rowe since the
Saturday. On the Tuesday following I was attacked by
Jes -ph Eve in the market-place for accusing him of be-
ing in the robbery. I ask. d him " Who said so?" He
told me John Cornish. I said I had not; I nev.er knew
nothing about it, and of course I could not say nothing.
On Tuesday night I saw Rowe. and told him of the cir-
cumstances. He said, " Never mind what he says; take
no notice of it. If anybody asks you anything about the
robbery you know nothing about it." He then took me
into his house, and said, " your eyes, have a glass
of brandy ;" and he gave me one. On the Sunday after
the robbery I went into Rowe's taproom. R we was
there, and some other gentleman.—(Laughter.) I said
to Rowe, " Where is my shillelagh?" He called me on
one side, and said, "You -- fool, why don't you mind
what you say—that is a detective police." ,
After some other unimportant evidence,
Mr. Prentice asked the Bench to grant a remand.
Mr. Parnell and the o her legal gentlemen strove hard
to get their respective clients admitted to bail, but the
Bench unanimously refused the application. and decided
on remanding the prisoners until Tue-dv next.
