(Before Mr. Payne.)
STEALING OATS.

James Saunders and George Terry were indicted for
stealing eight sacks of oats, the property of Mr. Juden, of
Horsleydown.

From the evidence it appeared that a quantity of sacks
of oats were placed on board the barge Robert, at Shad
Thames, from which 8 sacks were abstracted, which were
ultimately found in another barge, which the prisoners had
charge of.

BY ELECTRIC TELEGRAPH.
BEDFORD STAKES.

The jury found Terry guilty, but acquitted Saunders.
Mr. Payne sentenced the prisoner to 12 months' WI
prisonment, with hard labour.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE-(THIS DAY.:

BOW-STREET.
POLICE SEIZURES IN HOLYWICLL-EVEREIZTo—ThiS morn-
ing Superintendent Durkia, of the F division, produced an
immense quantity of pictures, photographic slides, books,
&c., which he had seized in Holyvrell-street, Strand, and
the keepers of the shops were in attendance to answer the
summons which had been served upon them for selling
them.

Mr. Metcalfe attended, cn the part of the Treasury, to
prosecute.
Inspector Webb said—On Friday last I entered the pre-
mises occupied by the defendant, 38, Holywell-street, and
told him I had authority to search his house for a quantity
of obscene books and pictures. I found those which I now
produce.

Mr. Henry—They are of a most disgusting character. I
shall order them to be destroyed within seven days from
the present time; but in the event of any objection being
taken to that course by the defendant I shall send the wise
to the sessions.
Hay acquiesced in the order fer the destroying the pik-
tures.

George Clements, of Queen-street, was then called upon
to answer a summons for a like offence.
Inspector Fermin of the A reserve force, said—l entered
the defendant's shop on Friday last and found the photo-
graph slides and pictures now on the table of the court. I
told the defendant he would have to answer a summons for
disposing of such property, when he replied that the sli dos
were not his property, but had been left in his care b; y a
foreigner, but the prints seised he considered did not co ,me
within the meaning of the term obscene.
Mr. Lewis, who appeared for the defendant, said—l dc
think the prints can be considered obscene. They are s old
for the purposes of artistic study, and not to gratify an
impure taste. I have seen many much more " obscene"
productions in many a gentleman's picture-gallery.
Mr. Henry—Surely, Mr. Lewis, you don't mean to c =-
tend they are not obscene ?
Mr. Lewis—lf you, sir, are of opinion that they are; I
shall not dispute it ; neither shall I object to their being
destroyed.
Mr. Henry—l think they are indecent, and I order them
to be destroyed within seven days.
Charles Stephenson was then called on to answer a si,tni-
lar summons.
Police-constable 25, of the F division, said I have beien
unable to serve the summons on Stephenson. I have been
to his shop in Holywell-street, and also to another he keep o
in Frog-lane, but cannot find him. He seems to hav e
quitted both places.

Mr. Henry—Very well. I ordered the pictures seized
upon his premises to be destroyed.
Edwin Drash and Mary his wife wero summoned for a
like offence.
Mr. Wood appeared for the defendants.

Inspector Felton, of the F division, said I went to 115,
Holywell-street, on Friday, and entered the shop and s
the female, who gave the name of Mary Dresh, the wife of
Edwin Dresh. On searching the house I found the obscene
pictures and books I now produce.

Mr. H. Wood—l shall not ask the witness any questions.
I have seen one of the books and pictures. I cannot offer
any objection to their being destroyed. With regard to
some of the books, I submit they ought not to be so severely
dealt with. The contents are of a very vague description.
Mr. Henry—l think they all come under the description
of being indecent.

Mr. Wood—Then I shall make no objections to their
being burned. I don't think, however, you can condem n
the "letters," as they are called, as being indecent. I thin k
they are a great benefit to mankind in general.
Mr. Henry—Do you think it decent to discuss dud
question ?

Mr. Wood—Not if you are of a contrary opinion.
Mr. Henry—l am most certainly. I order all to be &a-
storyed ; but the police had better retain a small specim e n
of the things purchased in ease it should be thought advii,s-
able to proceed by indictment against the different parties..
