POLICE INTELLIGENCE.
WORSHIP-STREET.

Charles Richard Burdett Waller, alias Gray, [dies
Meymott, alias the Rev. Charles Burdett, Matthew
Matthews, Francis Williams, Richard Law, alias Fre-
derick Dewhurst, Horatio Stainbrilge, alias .Ebsworth,
alias Stephens, and Elizabeth Buckle, who stood charged
with having conspired together to obtain goods to a
large extent from tradesmen and others under false pre-
tences, were placed at the bar before Mr. D'Eyncourt
for final examination.
Mr. Lewis attended as before for the London Trades'
Protection Society to conduct the prosecution; Mr. An•
drews appeared for the woman Buckle; and Mr. Ablett
for the rest of the prisoners.
The depositions, which were very voluminous, in the
general charge of conspiracy against the whole of the
prisoners, and also in a separate charge of forgery
against the prisoner Burdett, the particulars of which
have already been detailed in this paper, were now for-
mally completed and read over, and they were all fully
committed for trial.
The prisoner Law was then put to the bar alone,
charged with having stolen several black cloaks, two
palls, and other articles of mourning, of the value of 501,
the property of Mr. William. Dunkley, a furnishing un-
dertaker in Tower-street, Westminster-road.
The prosecutor stated that on the 29th September last
he entrusted the property in question to the prisoner,
who was at that time in his service, with directions to
deliver it at the house of Mr. Harding, a builder, in
Union-row, Clapham. He had occasion on the same
evening to discharge the prisoner, from whom he received
a letter about a week afterwards, in which he admitted
having pledged the articles at the instigation of a man
whose name was not mentioned, and entreated his for-
giveness. The witness identified several mourning cloaks
and other articles produced as a portion of the stolen
property.
Mr. John Matthews, a pawnbroker, in Richard's-row,
Lambeth, identified the prisoner as having called at his
shop on the 29th of September, representing that ho
had been sent by Mr. Dunkley, and pledged the property
for 51. 10s.
The prisoner was next charged with having stolen a
quantity of property of a similar description during the
time he was in the prosecutor's service, and the case
having been conclusively established, he was committed
for trial upon both the charges.
An elderly man, named John Spring, was charged
with feloniously cutting and wounding his wife, with
intent to murder her.
Police-considerable N 296, stated that in consequence
of information he had received he rspaired on the pre•
to the London Hospital, where he found
ceding evening
the injured woman, who was suffering from a severe
wound in the lower part of her person, and having
elicited from her that the injury had been itilicted by
her husband, with an oyster knife, ho proceeded to his
house and took him into custody.
A certificate was produced from Mr. Jackson Kent,
house-surgeon at the hospital, stating that the woman
had received an incised wound in the abdomen, and w:.ts
is a state of great danger.
The prisoner, who declined saying anything, was re-
manded for a week.

ENGINE HUNT.--One of the most powerful engines
on the Manchester, Sheffield, and Liucolnshiie Railway (the
Pyrrhus, No. 92) took French Lave from New Ilolland
station on the evening of Friday week, and made a run of
sixteen miles before it was overtaken by the pilot engine
which was sent in pursuit. The capture was effected at
Great Coates station, within four miles of Grimsby. These
freaks of railway engines, which have of late become much
too frequent, are occasioned, it appears, by the carelessness
of the drivers, in not properly abutting off the steam. On
this occasion no damage was done, but decisive measures
should be adopted to effectually stop such dangerous pro-
ceetiihga.—North British Mail.
