POLICE INTELLIGENCE.-(THIS DAY.)

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

A CASE FOR A REFORMATORY.—James Cattier, a boy
about 15, was charged with stealing a surgical instrument
from the shop of Mr. Joseph France Pratt, surgical
instrument maker, of 420, Oxford-street.

The prosecutor said he was sitting at the back of his
shop on the previous afternoon, writing, when he saw the
prisoner and another boy looking in at the door. They
went away for a short time, and came back, and the pri-
soner pushed open the door, darted in, seized the instru-
ment in question, and rushed out of the shop. He pursued
him, and at length he was stopped by a gentleman, and
just as he came up he saw him drop the instrument. He
then gave him into custody. The other boy made his escape.
Gowan, 13, C, said he believed the boy was known.

In answer to Mr. Beadon, the boy said he was sent in to
take it by another boy.
Mr. Beadon committed him for three months with hard
labour.

The mother, a decent-looking woman, here stepped for-
ward, and said that she was a widow and was left with
eight children. She had done her utmost to bring the boy
up properly, but could not. She had tried to get him to
sea, and she wished he could be got into a Reformatory.
FURIOUS DRlVlNG.—Charles and Frederick Jackson,
the former of the Fulham-road, furniture-dealer, and the
latter of Park-walk, Chelsea, were charged with being
drunk, and furiously driving in Piccadilly, to the danger
of passengers.
Police-constable 71 C, proved seeing the accused, Charles
Jackson, driving a horse attached to a cart, at the time
galloping at the rate of eight or nine miles an hour, when
they came in contact with a cab, the wheels of the two
vehicles becoming locked. The cabman requested them to
wait that he might see what damage was done, but they
drove off.

Charles Jackson was fined 20s. ; the other, ss.

THAMES.

SHOP LlTTlNG.—Charlotte Murray and Mary Ann
Stevens, the latter a well-known thief, were brought before
Mr. Yardley charged with stealing a card of black lace and
a piece of ribbon in the shop of Mr. George Emery, linen-
draper, in the Commercial-road, near the George Inn.
Sophia Pettitt, a young lady in the service of Mr. Emery,
said the prisoners came into the shop of her employer and
selected a small quantity of ribbon, which came to 81d.
only, and then asked to be shown some lace. While they
were looking at the lace Stevens took a card of black lace,
value £1 125., off the counter and put it under her dress.
Witness called Mr. Emery, and search was. made for
the lace, which was found under Murray's dress, on
the floor of the shop. A piece of ribbon was afterwards
found upon Stevens by the female searcher at the station-
house.
Mrs. Randall, female searcher at the station-house ad-
joining the court, produced a piece of ribbon found upon
the prisoner.
Stevens—l bought that.
Miss Pettitt took up another piece of ribbon, and said,
This is Ist-hhaet
you
u said
purchased"
gaoler,that Stevens had been twice
charged with shoplifting at that
court, and been convicted
on each occasion.

Mr. Yardley—Discharge Murray, and take the deposi.
dons against Stevens.
The prisoner Stevens no sooner heard this than she set
up a dismal howling, and implored mercy for the sake of
her poor, dear, helpless, fatherless babes, and said poverty
made her commit robberies.

The depositions having been completed, Mr. Yardley
asked Roche where the prisoner had been convicted.
Roche—Here, sir, twice.
The prisoner—I plead guilty.

- - -
Mr. Yardley—lt appears you are an incorrigible thief. I
convict you of larceny. You are sentenced to six months'
imprisonment and hard labour. This is the last time you
will be summarily convicted. Next time you are brought
here I will commit you for trial.

BIRTH IN A RAILWAY CARRIAGE.— On the ar-
rival of the London and BiiqhtonCompany's up train from
Hastings at Forest-hill station on Sunday evening, some
excitement was occasioned among the passengers by an,lit-
timation that a lady

this applied for 300 , ~or acres, of waste land, and
sold the leases, on certain building conditions, at low rates
to the ryots. From his own funds he contributed enough
to secure a fine broad street through the centre of the new
quarter, and thus, to the great benefit of the inhabitants,
arose Trevelayanpur. Curiously enough, the erection of
this quarter of Delhi, a benefit in itself, led to one of the
greatest benefits that has been conferred on India. Frona
it sprung the abolition of the transit duties. Finding that
the trade of the place was strangled by these vexatious im—
posts, the founder set on foot a series of inquiries, which
resulted in his appointment by Lord William Bentinck to
inquire into these obstacles to trade, and the appearance of
his reports in the newspapers of Calcutta gave the final
blow to a system which public opinion had already con-.
demned.—Hometvard Mail.
REVERSE OF FORTUNE.—The undoubted nephew
of the great John Philpot Curran is at present, and has
been for some time, an inmate of a workhouse in his nativ
county of Cork. A movement is on foot with a view of cell
le.iting a sum of money sufficient to keep him independeas
