DAMAGE BY A CABMAN WHILE DRUNl.—Daniel
Flynn, a cab-driver, the number of whose badge is
2,929 and vehicle 1,640, was this morning charged
before Mr. Bingham, with being drunk last night in
Park-lane, and, losing all control over his horse in
consequence, running his cab against a job-master's
brougham, and thereby calving much damage.

Police-constable C ;187, Moore, said he found the

defendant in Park-lane, at 11 o'clock last night drank,
and not able to take care of himself and cab. There was
a brougham standing near, whioh was very much da-
maged by the defendant, as he was informed, driving
furiously against it.

Joseph Stokes, job coachman, was driving the
brougham in question in Park-lane, and saw the defen-
dant, coming down in an opposite direction at a furious
rate, but not soon enough to get out of his way.
Witness was almat crossing into Chapel-street at the
time. lie called out to him, but defendant neither
stopped or turned off, but ran against him, running the
shaft through the apron of the brougham, and doing
other damage amounting to 71., as estimated by Mr.
Barnes, coach-builder, of Knightsbridge.

The policeman said defendant had come into collision
with two other vehicles before.

Defendant denied that he ran against the brougham.
The case being elearly proved, he was eJmmitted for
two months.

ROBBERY BY A SWEEP.—Stephen Chapman, whose
sooty appearance indicated his trade, was brought before
Mr. Selfe, charged with stealing a chimney-sweeping
machine, value 41., the property of Edward Brazier, a
master chininey-3weeper, of No. 7, Plea's-buildings,
Bromley.
It appeared that the prisoner had been employed by
Mr. Brazier for a fortnight previous to the 18th of last
month, on which day the prosecutor sent him out with
a sweeping machine, and directed him to cry "Sweep,
sweep," and bring home as much soot as he could. The
prisoner did not return, and was not again seen until
yesterday, when he met him in the street and asked
him where the machine was. The prisoner said he
knew where it was, but there was money lent upon it.
He was then given into custody.
Joseph Page, of No. 9, Lower East-alley, Wapping,
said the prisoner brought the machine produced to him
o❑ the 18th of Feb , and asked him to buy it. He gave
the prisoner 6s. for the machine.
Mr. Selfe—OLly 65.! Why the value of it is put
down at 41.

Mr. Brazier—l gave 4/. for it, but I can't say it is
worth that now.
Mr. Selfe—l should think so.

A second charge of a precisely similar description was
stated by a master chimney-sweeper, who had intrusted
the prisoner with a machine.

Mr. Selfe----Is the second machine forthcoming I
A. police-constable replied in the negative, and said he
knew where it was.

The prisoner pleaded guilty, and Mr. Selfe sentenced
him to three months' imprisonment and hard labour.

THR HAYMARKET MURDER.—Since Lani has been in
the House of Detention he has written a letter to his
father, telliog him not to forward as he had requested
in a former letter, any money for him to Monte Video,
"as he was still in London, and was likely to be for
some time to come." He complains of much of his property
being detained by the police, and says if justice is done
to him by the authorities the money he paid for his
passage to Monte Video will be restored to him. He
seems perfectly indifferent to his situation, eats voraci-
ously, and in exercising walks with an easy buoyant
air. In personal appearance, as well as in dress, he i-
anything but prepossessing ; but, evidently a young
man, he looks but a youth of great muscular power. He
pays great attention to an Italian Bible which he has
been provided with.
DBTERMINED SUICIDE AT BETHNIL-GREEN.—Ye,ter-
+lay afternoon, shortly before four o'clock, a determined
act of sell-destruction was committed by Mary Joyce,
aged 61 years, lately residing at No. 3, Fuller-street,
Brick-lane, Bethnal-green. It appears that the deceased
was the wife of a Spitalfields weaver, and for some time
past she had given way to bad habits. She ate a mutton
chop for dinner with her husband, after which he left
home, when the deceased seemed perfectly tranquil and
in her usual health. Upon his return at four o'clock, he
found the deceased suspended to the cross-beam of a
weaver's-loom by a piece of thin netting. She was cut
down immediately and an alarm was raised by the hus-
band, who sent for Mr. Edmundo, the surgeon, of Brick-
lane, but when he attended life was extinct. No reason
can be assigned for the rash act at present. The body
awitits an inquest before Mr. W. Baker, the coroner.
