goods to be sent for his inspection either at lodgings
or hotels, and then, under pretence of wishing to
show them to his " invalid sister," or some person
in the next room, to get posseSsion and make off with
them by some other door, on one occasion getting
off with three valuable Indian shawls. At times

Messrs. Marshall and Snelgrove, Oxford-street,
Messrs. Shoolbred and Co., Tottenham-court-road,

Cußlous CASE.—Peter Pfannenperger, who was
described as an Italian, and who on Monday last,
when before Mr. Tyrwhitt on the charge of assault-
ing Wilhelm Bock, a waiter at Mr. Kuhn's restau-
rant, Hanover-street, Regent-street, pretended not
to be able to understand Mr. Albert, the interpre-
ter, who spoke to him in Italian, French, German,
and English, remaining perfectly silent, was again
brought before Mr. Tyrwhitt.
It may be remembered that the prisoner went to
the restaurant and begged, and on the prosecutor
trying to remove his hand from the door he received
a severe cut on the hand.

On the prisoner being placed in the dock to-day
he fell down on his knees, and placed himself in the
attitude of prayer.
Mr. Albert said that the two days' detention the
prisoner had undergone had effected a cure, for
he had spoken to him in French. The prisoner was
not an Italian, but a Belgian.
Mr. Albert read over the evidence to the prisoner
in French.

The prisoner said he wanted to get away from
London. lie had been eight months in London.
Mr. Tyrw•hitt said it was a case he could not
withdraw from a jury, and committed the prisoner
for trial.

fendant with a number of pigs in a cart, some of
