POLICE INTELLIGENCE.-Svt. 3.

Complainant—No ; I can't afford it.
Defendant—lf he will allow me ss. a week I
will be satisfied. I have been a slave to him from
morning till night, for months and months, and he
has cheated me out of my furniture, which I paid
for, and the receipts for which I can show.
The Lord Mayor—lf you have any furniture of
hers, you ought to give it up. If you took her and
her furniture, when you got rid of her you ought
to have given her her furniture back.
Complainant—l will do that, but she ruined me.
The Lord Mayor—But you ruined her first. (To
defendant)—Do not go for the furniture yourself.
Send somebody else for it. Will you promise me
that you will not annoy him again ?
Complainant—Yes, my lord, certainly. He is no
good to any one. His own countrymen despise
him. I have lately ascertained that he has a wife
and three children living in Italy. I will not dis-
grace myself by going near him again.
The defendant was then discharged.
Elizabeth Smith, alias Eliza Green, who has
been several times at the bar of this court for rob-
bery, was charged with stealing a purse containing
silver from the pocket of Mr. T. P. Clobissy, a com-
mercial traveller.

The prosecutor said that while standing in front
of the bar of a public-house in Bishopsgate-street
the previous night he noticed the prisoner and ano-
ther woman by his side. After drinking a glass of
ale he left the house, when he was accosted by the
two women, who asked him to treat them. This
he refused to do. He almost immediately felt the
prisoner's hand in his pocket, and as she withdrew
it he seized it, and found his purse in her hand.
He then gave her into the custody of a policeman.
G. Sheppard, constable 623, said the purse con-
tained two-half-crowns and a penny. The prisoner
handed him 4s. when she was about to be searched
at the station-house.

The prisoner, who denied the charge, was fully
committed for trial.

GUILDHALL.—Anne Leather, alias Francis,
alias Martin, alias Franklin, and Anne Rowe, alias
Lee, two respectably-dressed females, who are
known to the police, were charged with stealing a
shawl from a shop in Long-lane, Smithfield, under

Le following circumstances

George Shaley said—l am shopman to Mr. But-
cher, of Long-lane. Yesterday afternoon the pri-
soners came to our shop and asked the price of a
shawl in the window. I told them, and then they

inquired: the prices of other shawls. I showed some
to them, but they did not suit, and they then asked
if I had any drab cobourg. I showed them some,
101 they did not suit; They again asked to look
at more shawls, but I said. I had none of the same
quality as they had been looking at ; but Rowe
pointed to a parcel which she could see contained
shawls, and said she would look at those, and. went
round the counter to where -was. I said I would.
show them, upon which she . said she thought she
could have "saved me the trouble. I opened the
parcel containing seven shawls, and she then asked
me to reach another shawl from the window, Which

I did, and she then took one corner and asked me
to take another and hold it out to see the size. I did
so, and at the same time Leather was sitting behind
the shawl, entirely screened from view, but I saw
the shawls which were on the counter move. Rowe
then said she was recommended to Mr. Butcher be-
cause he kept such a pretty assortment of shawls.
I said it was not so good, as we were about taking
stock. She then asked me to send some up to the
Victoria Hotel, opposite the Post-office, as those
were too gay in colour, and her mistress would not
like them. They then went away, and on counting
the shawls I missed one, and immediately went in
search of the prisoners. I found them in Cox-court,
and charged them with stealing the shawl. They
immediately separated and ran different ways, and
at the same time some one called out, " Here is the
shawl ; " but, not seeing it, I continued in pursuit
of Rowe, who threatened to murder me if I did not
let her go. I, however, retained my hold of her
until the policeman came up. The other prisoner
was in the meantime secured by another party.
The shawl produced was brought back by a boy
who met us as we were returning to the shop.
The officer said-1 know the prisoners by sight,
but I never saw them together, and they have re-
fused their addresses.
Prisoners remanded.

BOW-STREET.—Jane Collins, a prostitute,
who has been repeatedly brought up at this court,
on charges of drunkenness and assault, was placed
at the bar charged with the following attack on a
respectable married woman.
Mrs. Allen, of Beaufort-street, said—Last evening
I called on a friend in Holborn, and the time pass-
ing in conversation, I stayed rather late. Passing
through Great Queen-street; I heard a pattering of
feet behind me, and, being alarmed I hurried on.
As .I passed through Long-Acre, the noise continu-
ing, I looked back and saw the prisoner following.
I turned into Broad-court, where she overtook me,
and said with an oath, " Were you looking at
me ?" I said, " No, my good girl," but she screamed
out; with another horrid oath, " Yes, you did, you
—," and pounced upon me like a tigress, seizing
me by the throat with one hand, and beating me
about the head and face with the other. I called
for help, but there was no one near, and she con-
tinued to beat me in the most savage manner for
some minutes. Presently the barman at the public-
house came to the rescue, and, a policeman having
been fetched, I gave her in charge. This was
about 12 o'clock.

MANSION-HOUSE.—ElizaWinehouse, a styl-
ishly dressed female, 20 years of age, was brought
before the Lord Mayor charged with having en-
tered a hotel for an unlawful purpose.
W. Dudley, police constable No. 547, said—At
half-past 12 o'clock last night I was in the Mino-
ries, when I saw the defendant lift up the window
of the hotel, No. 1, Abbot-street, and get into the
house. I crossed the road and took hold of her,
and upon the arrival of another officer we aroused
the inmates. The owner of the house was not at
home, and I took- the defendant to the station-
house and charged her.
The Lord Mayor—Defendant, have you any ques-
tion to put to the witness ?
Defendant—No, my lord, but I have a good deal
to say presently,
Mr. Nicola Maggi, the complainant (an Italian),
said—l keep a hotel at No. 1, Abbot-street; I
have known the defendant a long time. Shy for-
merly lived with me as my wife, but we have been
separated some months. She is in the habit of
annoying me.
The Lord Mayor—Do you consider her coming
to your house at half-past 12 at night an annoy-
ance ?

Thomas Johnson, the barman, said his attention
was attracted by, the cries of complainant, who on
seeing him asked him to call a policeman. At first
he did not like to interfere, imagining that it was
an ordinary quarrel between two women, and not
knowing Which was in fault. But when the pri-
soner in his presence recommenced beating Mrs.
Allen savagely, Mrs. Allen neither giving any
provocation nor even offering an:y resistance, he
felt bound to interfere and send for a policeman.
Poole, 300 A, was fetched by order of last wit-
ness. Mrs. Allen, whose face was bleeding, charged
defendant, and he took her into custody.
Prisoner, with an impudent laugh, said " she sup-
posed it was the liquor."
Fined £5 or two months' imprisonment.

. ,
Complainant—Oh, no.
The Lord Mayor—You dp not ?
Complainant—Oh, yes, now I do, my lord.
The Lord Mayor—Defendant, what have you to
say in answer to the charge ?
Defendant—My lord, that man (complainant)
took me from an excellent situation, and seduced
me. I lived with him for several years, and have
had a child by him, for whose maintenance he allows
me 3s. a week, which I do not consider sufficient.
I have been compelled to put the child out to nurse
and pay 7s. a week for it. I met a friend of the
complainant's last night, who treated me to a little
gin, which excited me, and I then determined that
I would see the complainant. I knew that he slept
on the ground-floor' and I therefore went and lifted
up the window and got in, when the policeman
caught hold of me. I wanted to persuade the
complainant to allow me a little more money weekly
for the support of my child. I hope your lordship
will look over my offence, as I was never in trouble
before.

CLERKENWELL.—An elegantly-attired fe-
male, who gave the name of Elizabeth Collins, aged
22, but whose real name is Collinson, was placed
at the bar before Mr. Tyrwhitt, charged with steal-
ing £8 10s. from 61, Ossulston-street, Somer's-
town,the moneys of Kate Stevens, and also stealing
a box of clothing of the value of £B, from 42, Sand-
wich-street, Burton-crescent, the property of Eliza
Meads, a. servant out of a situation.

Owing to the publicity given to the case in the
newspapers, numerous charges have been brought
against the prisoner, but the above were the only
ones sent for trial. In the first case the prisoner
took a lodging of the young woman, and while she
was confined to her bed, having only lately given
birth to a child, the prisoner went into her room,
and, under the plea that a little weak gin and water
would do her and the infant good, induced her to
take some. While she was asleep the prisoner de-
camped, taking with her the prosecutrix's workbox,
containing the money she had•saved to help her
confinement, and to pay her rent with, and left her
in the greatest distress. The second case was this
--The prisoner lodged with Eliza Meads, then a
servant out of place, and during her temporary ab-
sence the prisoner stole one of her boxes, contain-
ing nearly the whole of her under-clothing. ,When
the prisoner was taken into custody by police-con-
stable Gordon, 336 A, she had no less than four of
the prosecutrix's petticoats on. Although the pri-
soner refused her address, owing to the active exer-
tions of constable Gordon, he discovered it, and had
\not only been enabled to recover the whole of Eliza
Mead's property, but that of several other parties
who had been robbed.
The prisoner when asked what she had to say in
answer to the Charge, said, " Nothing,"
Police-constable Gordon, 336 A, said that the
prisoner had been twice before convicted, and sen-
tenced to lengthened terms of imprisonment at Dur-
ham. She had also been in the Fulham reformatory.
Mr. Tyrwhitt said the prisoner had been guilty
of the most cruel robberies, and fully committed her
to the sessions for trial. He also ordered that the
finethingsthepr
and thatwasisonershe shouldlt on
thenattiredpiin should
be taken off her, her
own apparel, and directed that a small sum should
be given to Miss Kate Stevens, who was robbed of
her money

The Lord Mayor Are you able to get your
living in a respectable way ?
Defendant.—Yes, I should not like to depend on
him for a living, because he has been very unkind
to me.

The Lord Mayor—l find from a document which
the complainant has handed me that you have en-
tered into an agreement with him with respect to
your child.
Defendant—Yes ; but he told me that that was
only to continue for a short time, and that as soon
as his mother went away he would take me back
to the hotel.

The Lord Mayor—Complainant, if her statement
is true you have behaved in the most heartless way
to her, for you not only took her froth a good situa-
tion, but you ruined her. You ought to provide for
her. Any man who seduces a woman from her
home is bound to protect her as long as she lives.
Complainant—l did not- seduce her.
Defendant—l most solemnly declare you did, and
I bitterly regret now having disgraced myself by
going to your hotel.
The Lord Mayor—Complainant, 3s. is a very
small sum to allow her for the maintenance of the
child.
Complainant—She can't say the child is mine.
The Lord Mayor—Why, you have admitted in
that document that the child, is yours.
Defendant—He is a very bad man. He knows the
child is his, and at one time he was very fond of it,
and used to nurse it. I am broken-hearted when I
think of his base conduct to me.
The Lord Mayor—ls not that a reason why you
should keep away from him ? I find that when you
separated he gave you £3O, in addition to which he
has allowed you 3s. a week for the child. That is
more than the law would give you.
Defendant—l want a little more than 3s. a-week,
and as he has exposed me I shall take further steps.
The Lord Mayor—l must protect him. Will you
keep away from him for the future P
Defendant—l will, if possibly can ; but I live

Henry Galigne and Arthur Warring, two re-
spectably-dressed men, were charged, at the in-
stance of Inspector Langton, N division, with
creating a disturbance and attempting to fight a
duel in NOrthampton-park, Islington.
Mr. W. Pye said that on Thursday night he was
passing through Northampton-park, Islington, a
quiet secluded neighbourhood, about nine o'clock,
when he heard two persons quarrelling very loudly,
and upon proceeding to the spot he saw the two
prisoners surrounded by a number of boys. He
also saw that each defendant had a pistol in
his hand, and one of them said to the other, " Your
pistol is not loaded, and you have no cap." Both
prisoners were much excited, and Galigne appeared
to be the worse for liquor. The prisoners said it was
a mere freak, and was all done as a matter of joke.
Police-constable 441 N said he was called to the
spOt and took from each of the defendants a pistol ;
one was loaded with powder but not with ball, but

very near his house. He might allow me a little the other was not. Galigne was called a skittle
more. He is in circumstances to do so. sharper by the other defendant.
The Lord Mayor—Will you allow her a little Mr. Mould—You have been here before, but not
more ? in the name of Galigne, for skittle-sharping.
- k br -I- once, but was dig-

tave

Galigne—l fieen hero o:
charged.
Mr. Tyrwhitt said that duels were very bad
things, and were happily not heard of much now.
Duels were highly ridiculous, and amongst a certain
class of people ludicrous. Hei should order them to,
find responsible bail, in the sum of £lO, to keep the.
peace for two calendar months.

LAMBETH.—A smartly-dressed young Roman
entered the witness-box, and addressing Mr. Elliott,
said, " Please your worship, I want a warrant for
an assault."

Mr. Elliott—Who has assaulted you ?
Applicant—My young man, George Rathbone.
Mr. Elliott—What was the cause for his assault-
ing you—state how it occurred ?
Applicant—Well, sir, we were to be married, and
so I left my situation last evening. I then went to
see him, and on my saying, " Well, George, what
arc you agoing to 'do now ?" he used bad langilage,'
and I told him that if he repeated it I should smtici‘
his face, and he then struck me a violent blow.
Mr. Elliott—Well you seemed to differ pretty
soon. You may have a summons against your
young man._

WANDSWORTH.,-.--William Cole, a powerful--
looking young man, was charged with being con,-
cerned with others in committing a highway rob-
bery upon Edward Richard .Banham, a beershop-
keeper, of Manor-street, Chelsea, while in Batter-
sea New Park.
The occurrence took place some weeks ago, and
at the last
,session of • the Central Criminal Co''rt
two women, named Diggory and Howden, and °'
man named Haines, who gave the name of Brown,
were found guilty of being participators in the high"
way robbery, which was attended with considerable
violence, and sentenced, the two former to 12 mOntils
each, and the latter to 18 months. The circumstnce°
of the case were of an aggravated nature. The pr.o-
- was drinking in the Admiral Keppel
house, Brompton-road, when he met Diggory,
whom he had known for some time. Howderi
vas
in her company, and he treated them both. Haines
and Cole then forced themselves into his company,
and ultimately the prosecutor hired a cab and took
the two females for a ride, and told the two men he
did not want their company. They, however, fal;
lowed him to Battersea, and after he had dischargad
the cab he went into the park. He was followed
by all the four.; he was knocked down and severely
ill-used, and his purse and money taken away fronl
him. Cole escaped, and it was stated by the pro-
secutor that he used him more roughly than the
others. Every exertion was made to capture
but without success, and at last the other prisoners
were sent for trial without him.
Sergeant Hudder, of the B division, now stated
that he apprehended the prisoner at a beershop.
Sheerness. He told him the charge, and he replica
that it was a-ba,d job, and that it was bad conipani
that had got him into it.
Sergeant Bocking, Of the V division, who had
charge, of the case, said he indicted the prisoner
with the others at the sessions.
Mr. .Taylor, the clerk, said, in that case it would
not be•necessary to take the depositions agahrt
him,' but merely to commit the prisoner. upon tae

certificate of the indictment. -
Sergeant Bocking said he had not the certificate.
'Mr. Taylor told him he could obtain it at the
office of the Clerk of the Peace.
Mr. Dayman then remanded the prisoner witi
Thursday, for the production of the certificate, arli
the witnesses were told that they need not attend'
Sergeant Bocking asked if it would not be necefJ-
sary to bind the witnesses over to prosecute?
Mr. Taylor said they could not bind them oven
as no depositions would be taken. If the witnesses
were not at the sessions when the case came on, the

prisoner would. be discharged.
The prisoner was then removed.
