POLICE INTELLIGENCE.-7his Day.

241ARLBOROUGH-STREET.

ATTEMPTED SUICIDE.—Grace Copson, a needlowomail,
residing at 13, Little Windmill-street, was charged before
Mr. Tyrwhitt with attempting to commit suicide by cut-
ting her throat with a knife.

Mr. Alexander Clephane, baker, of 13, Little Windmill-
street, said that on the previous day the prisoner, who was
a lodger in his house, ran down stairs into his shop and
seized a knife from the counter and attempted to cut her
throat with it, and would have succeeded in doing so bad
ho not prevented her.

In answer to Mr. Tyrwhitt, the witness said the pri-
soner, who was of weak mind, had been drinking for
some days, and was labouring under the effects of drink at
the time.

A female said she saw the prisoner in the shop flood k-
ing the knife about, and she thought sho was mad, and ran
away, being frightened.

Mr. Tyrwhitt said the best thing that could be done
would be to send her to the House of Detention for a week,
when she would be properly looked after.

THAMES.

INGRATITUDE AND ROBBERY.—Georgo Darling, a well-
dressed youth, who, was said, to ho well connected, was
charged with stealing a silver watch and gold chain, value
£l3, the property of Mr. William Jameson, a gentleman
of the medical profession, and dwelling at No. 63, High-
street, Wapping. The prisoner lodged in the same house
for a fortnight. He had been treated with groat kindness
by the prosecutor, who intended him for some profession.
On Monday last the prosecutor advanced the prisoner a
loan of £5 10s. to forward his interest. At one o'clock on
Wednesday morning the prosecutor went to bed, and laid
his watch and chain on a table in his bed-room. When
he arose at eight o'clock the same morning he missed his
watch and chain. He took no notice of his loss for a
couple of hours, and thought the prisoner was wearing
both for amusement, but at 10 o'clock he missed the pri-
soner also, and gave information of his loss at the head
department of &police, in Scotland-yard. Yester-
day evening the prosecutor met with the pri-
soner in the 13Iackfriars-road, near the Surrey
Theatre, and gave him into custody. The two duplicates,
one referring to the watch, the other to the chain, were
found on the prisoner. Ho pawned the watch for £3, and
the chain for 308., as early as 8 o'clock on Wednesday
morning, at the pawn office of Mr. Bowley, in Brick-lane,
Spitalfields. He admitted to a policeman that he stole the
watch and chain, and was very sorry he did so. He made
no defence, and Mr. Paget committed him for trial.
Mr. Jamieson said that £2 3s. lid. was found on the
prisoner, and that as he had lent him .C 5 10s. a few days
ago he ought to have that money.
Mr. Paget said that a pawnbroker had more recently
lent the prisoner £4 10s., and that the judge at the trial
would decide how the money was to be disposed of. The
prosecutor was eel tainly the greatest sufferer, but his
watchr and chain would be restored to him.
