Q UEE2V-SQUARE.

DARING ROBBERY AT THE KING'S THEATRE

John Isaacs, a youth about 17 years of age, residing
at No. 6, Chat les-st reet, Covent-garden, was charged
with robbing Mrs. Elzibeih Davenish, of No. 4,
Hereford-street, Park-street, of a valuable necklace,
earrings, and brooch, worth 441., at the Masquerade
at the Theatre, on the previous evening.
Mrs. Davenish stated that she was a widow. On
'he previous evening she went to the Masquerade.
During the whole of the evening she was annoyed
by the prisoner, who was in the character of a street-
sweeper, with a broom. Let her go to what part
of the house she would the prisoner followed her.
In one of the boxes she missed a trinket, and not
being able to find it, she took all her trinkets off,
which she put in a white glove and placed it in her
bonnet. As she was leaving the theatre with a
friend, a gang of persons, apparently about twelve,
knocked her bonnet off, and also the hat of the
gentleman who was with her, and she distinctly
saw the prisoner pick up the glove containing hrr
trinkets, and walk away with a female.
The prosecutrix here pointed out a female in the
office, who gave her name Elizabeth James, as the
person with whom the prisoner walked away.
Matilda Arnold, of No. 57, Poland-street,
Oxford-street, stated that she knew the prose-
cutrix, though she did not accompany her to the
Masquerade. She could swear positively that when
the prosecutrix's bonnet was knocked off the pri-
soner picked up the glove anti walked away.
Mr. George Oldford, of No. 4, Oxford-terrace,
Edgware-road, stated that he accompanied Mts.
Davenish to the Masquerade at the King's theatre,
and remained with her all the evening. He observed
the prisoner, dressed as a sweeper, the whole of
the evening. As they were shout to leave the
theatre his hat was knocked off by a fellow in the
garb of a countryman, and he was very much mal-
treated. Mrs. Davenish al-o had her bonnet knocked
off, but he could not tell by whom.
The prisoner, in reply said that he went to the
Masquerade, and was about leaving it when he was
accusrd of the robbery. He knew nothing at all
about it, and begged that lie might be searched.
When he was given in charge the lady he was with
also wished to be taken in charge.
The prisoner was committed for trial.

Mrs. James assured the Magistrate that the
prisoner was entirely innocent. She had accider-

tally met him at the Masquerade, and knowing his
father and mother she detained Master Isaacs to
dance quadrilles, &c., wi►h her during the evening.

HATTON-GARDEN.
Ann Grigg, a middle-aged woman, a cook in the
service of Us. H ckson, boarding and lodging house
keeper, of No. 49, Bernard-streer, Russell-square,
was charged by Mr. Edward Arding, son of the
Rev. Dr. Arding, of Berks, on suspicion of having
stolen a diamond ring, with brilliant in the centre
and eight smaller round it, on a purple enamel
ground; a watch in a pinch-back case; an old-
fashioned oval gold brooch, with grey hair; two
topaz, forming a buckle, with gold serpent to con-
nect them; a blue camlet cloak, li►►ed throughout
with velvet, velvet collar, and gilt clasps, &c.
Mr. Arding stated that tie held a situation in the
Comptroller's office, Guildhall, and during the last
fourteen months he had occupied a parlour and
sleeping apartment in the house of Mrs. Hickson,
and the servants were in the habit of waiting upon
him. He usually kept the above property iu a desk
in the parlour, which he used as a sitting room, and
the prisoner and other servants had frequently ob-
served him go to the desk to take out money. On
Saturday night he had occasion to go to Black-
heath, where he passed the night, and remained
there until Monday, and on his return he ascer-
tained that the desk containing his property had
been stolen, and the house had all the appearance
of having been forcibly entered by thieves. He in-
stantly instituted a strict investigation, and was in-
formed that on Monday morning last, between the
hours of five arid seven o'clock, thieves had en-
tered the house by forcing open the parlour win-
dow, and the back door vas also found open. In
the yard was discovered the desk, emptied of its
contents, and a carpenter's chisel was lying upon
it. He was further informed that the prisoner on
the same morning had got up much earlier than
usual, and after a considerable period she clarinet
the hou-e, appeared greatly agitated, and behaved
herself in a very suspicious manner, and told her
mistress that the house had been entered arid
robbed; and what was extremely singular in the
transaction, although there was property of great
value in other pi:l.ls of the house, wh ch could have •
been removed with the utmost facility by thieves,
still not a single article was removed, with the ex-
ception
of his property; arid the prisoner having
only been a month in the service of Mr.. kiielts)n, •
coupled with her strange conduct, and rising so
early in the morning, excited a suspicion that if she
was not the actual thief she was in some way or
other concerned in the robbery, and knew where

the property was, and information was immetlia.ely
communicated to Inspector Oakley and Sergeant Nis-
bet, who attended and apprehended the prisoner.
Inspector Oakley and Sergeant Nisbet deposed,

a desperi'e p'unge at the officer's left side,
but fortunately missed his aim, and the knife passed
between the side and the arm, or the deadly im-
pose of the assailant must have been effected. Ile
prisoner made his appearance, and the constable,
drawing his staff, charged him in the King's name
to aid and as,i,t, in,tead of doing which he seized
the tongs, and took part with the thief, who, after
a desperate scuffle, escaped. Kennerly then secured
the prisoner.

The prisoner was fined 51., and in default com-
mitted for two months and hard labour in the House
of Currtction.

MARY LEB ONE.
George Waitnzan, Samuel Acton, William Arnold,
Richard Alaund, and John Bueknzaster, were brought
up on a warrant to answer the following cha►ge:—
Mr. Wm. Johnson, butcher, stated that some
time back a man named Hudson, carrying on the
business of a green-grocer opposite witness's house,
was taken up on a charge of horsestealing, and com-
mitted from this office for trial. The three first
prisoners, who were in the employ of Hud=on at
the time, had since been retained by his wife; and
it haring got wind that witness was the person who
caused his apprehension, they were in the continual
habit, in r.onjunction with other persons, of annoy-
ing him. Within the last week the two last-named
prisoners, who were in the employ of Mr. Swilley,
coal-merchant, had stopped opposite his shop,and col-
lected a mob of persons by calling out," There's a
informer," " The fat old sheep-stealer," &c. In
consequence of such conduct he went to the shop
cf their mas►er to ask their names, which Mr.
Swilley refused to give. He was then returning
home, when WVaitm►n and Arnold, accompanied by
a mob of about twenty persons, began calling him
the aforesaid names, and many others equally op-
probrious. The mob soon rapidly increased, arid
witness was hustled by Waltman, and struck by
some person, but by whom he could not say. He
with difficulty reached his own house, and was
obliged irnme,liately to close his shop. His aim
was severely bruised by the violence of the mob.
He was obliged to wear it in a sling,
Several witnes'es wero called who bore testimony
to the violence of the mob, and pointed out Walt-
man and Arnold as tie ringleaders.
The prisoners, who all denied the charge, were
ordered to find bail to answer the charge at the
Sessions.
