POLICE INTELLIGENCE.—This Day.

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

THE RESULT OF EXTRAVAGANCE.—Frank Davys,
a respectably-dressed young man, clerk to Mr.
Timewell, tailor, of 2, Sackville-street, was charged
before Mr. D'Eyncourt as follows :
Sergeant Cole, C division, said—About 10 o'clock
last night I saw the prisoner in %Vest-street, St.
James's, with the bag produced in his hand. 1
stood for some time watching him, being in plain
clothes, and saw him go into 8, West-street, a piece-
broker's, and take from the bag thirteen pieces of
cloth and place them on the counter. I saw the
shopkeeper examining the cloth, and I went into
the shop, when the shopkeeper said to the prisoner,
"Is this your friend ? " and he replied, " No."
The shopkeeper then asked me what I wanted, and
I said I was a police officer. I then told the pri-
soner that I was a police officer, and asked him
where he got the cloth from. He said, "From my
brother-in-law's, Mr. Timewell, of 2, Sackville-
street." I asked him if his brother-in-law
allowed him to sell them, and he said " Yes ;
they are waistcoat pieces." I told him that I did
not believe him, and that I should take him to the
police-station, and did so ; and while going along
he touched me on the shoulder and said, "What am
I to do; I have got into difficulties through frequent-
ing the Haymarket, and being gay. I owed £4,
and took the cloth to make it up. It belongs to
my brother-in-law."

The prisoner, who seemed very dejected, said—
I have no questions to ask.

The Sergeant asked for a remand, stating that
the prosecutor was unable to attend at present.

WESTMINSTER.

A REMEDY FOR HABITUAL DRUNKENNESS.—Mary
Clapp, a wo►nan about 25 years of age, was charged
with being drunk and disorderly.

Defendant has been repeatedly charged at this
court with the same offence, and has been com-
mitted to prison.
Police constable, 62 B said that the defendant
came up to him last night on Strutton Ground,
Westminster, and knocked his helmet off. She had
only come out of prison yesterday morning.
Defendant—l was met by some friends who gave
me some drink. lam very sorry.
Mr. Selfe—You always say that, and yet con-
tinue to get drunk.

Defendant—So little does it now. I've no inside.
After living upon gruel in prison, it did not take
much to intoxicate me.

Mr. Selfe—And yet you are so fond of prison
that you are no sooner sent out of it than you are
in again.

Defendant—l have no constitution left.
Mr. Selfe—l am not at all surprised at that.
Defendant—lf you let me go this time I will take
the pledge. Pray let me go ; I'll take the pledge.
Mr. Selfe—You won't keep it.
Defendant—Bind me over, then, to be of good
behaviour, I shall keep that. You bound me over
before for a couple of months. I knew I must keep
that ; so I did. I never touched a drop of drink
all the time.

Mr. Selfe—l am much gratified to find that
binding over has so salutary an effect. It is very
fortunate that it has. I shall now discharge you,
upon your entering into recoguisances to be of good
behaviour for three months.
