A young woman, far advanced in pregnancy, and of ex-
ceedingly prepossessing appearance, came before the LORD
MAYOR to state the unfortunate embarrassment under
which the following circumstances had placed her.
She bad lived as servant with a family in the parish of
St. Martin, Cannon-street, and had left them a few weeks
ago, as she expected to get married to a journeyman car-
penter by whom she was pregnant. She had been engaged
as a yearly servant, and had received a full year's wages,
but two days before the year had expired her mistress re-
quested Ler to leave her place, as the servant she had en-
gaged was coming from the country, and had no friends in
London. The girl consented, not knowing that by
this act she deprived herself of a legal settlement
in the parish, as tte law requires a full twelvemonth
to be completed in order to establish a settlement
by service. The young man who had promised
her marriage absented himself, and she bad no clue

by which -to trace him. Being within a fortnight
of her accouchement she was obliged to leave her lodgings,
and, owing to her situation, she could not obtain any other.
Her money was all expended, and she had no other resource
than to wander about the streets, and for the last four

nights she had slept in the open air.
art- r nor Mss 9R. CQM/Di..r..,iDP her destitute situa-
tion, directed she should nave shelter in the UOmpter air
that night, and be would in the mean time require the
parish officers to attend the following day.
The overseers of St. Martin's parish being in attend-
ance, the girl was brought forward and questioned.
She said her name was Ann Webster, and her parents
lived at Hornchurch, in Essex. She then attempted to
detail some part of the sufferings she had endured from
being repulsed in her solicitations for shelter, and being
in consequence exposed to all the inclemencies of the wea-
ther at this season, but her sobs and tears were so violent
that she was compelled to be led out of the office, when
she fainted.
The gentlemen of the parish, in the most feeling man-
ner, as they had ascertained the girl bore an excellent cha-
racter, stated their willingness to afford her necessary re-
lief and shelter during her accouchenient, after which they
would decide what further steps should be taken in her case.
James TVilson, the individual charged with a series of
robberies at various hotels and inns in the metropolis, was
yesterday brought up for final examination. A great
number of hotel and tavern keepers were in attendance,
who, with few exceptions, recognised the prisoner as the
individual after whose visit they had been obliged to make
geod the losses of their customers.
Mr. Oliver, of the City Hotel, King-street, who had
caused the prisoner to he apprehended, came forward and
stated that Mr. Webb, of Coombs, near Stowmarket, the
gentleman who had been robbed in his house, Lad not re-
plied to a letter which he (Mr. A.) had written to him
on the subject. He was sure that Mr. Webb would give
his attendance if a clear case could be brought home to the
prisoner.
Mr. Hobler observed there would be a failure in the
evidence if the party who had been robbed, and who alone
could identify the articles found in the prisoner's lodgings,
was not forthcoming.
Mr. Oliver having consented to become answerable for
Mr. Webb's appearance at the Sessions, the case was gone
into.
The chambermaid and waiter swore positively to the
identity of the prisoner ; to finding a quantity of cabbage-
leaves in the room he had occupied ; and to the loss of Mr.
Webb's clo:hes, for which Mr. Oliver had paid a sum of 101.
The next complete case was that of the Blue Posts,
where the housemaid had lost her whole stock of clothes.
A gown found at the prisoner's lodgings was part of the
property, and was consequently sworn to.
Upon these two cases the prisoner was fully committed.
Mr. Knowles, the proprietor of the Blossoms Inn,
Lawrence-lane, and the Saracen's Head, Snow-hill, iden-
tified some bed furniture found on the bed of the prisoner,
at his lodgings, as having been his property. The prisoner
had visited both his establishments, and he had been obliged
to replace the amount of the losses of his customers at
each place.
The LORD MAYOR thought it would be best for 114.
Knowles not to nuke any charge until he had procured
more conclusive evidence.
Among the cases which the activity of Roe, the officer,
who has had the management of the business, has brought
home to the prisoner, the following are the most complete :
City Hotel, loss, 101. ; White Bear, Basinghall-street,
loss, 91. ; Blossoms Inn, Lawrence-lane, Sl. ; Saracen's
Head, Snow-hill, Si. ; Queen's Arms, Newgate-street, '71.3
Ship, Lime-street, about 60/. ; Edinburgh Castle, Strand,
15/. ; Hero, Strand, 151. ; Ship, Charing-cross ; Angel
Inn, Islington ; Gloucester Coffeehouse, Piccadilly, from
the proprietor, Mr. Orgil, were taken a cash-box, chimney-
ornaments, and a quantity of cut glass. The cash-Lox was
found at the prisoner's lodgings, St. Paul's Coffeehouse ;
with many others who cannot swear to the prisoner, who
has altered himself greatly by shaving off his whiskers, &c.
since he has been apprehended.
As soon as the prisoner was removed from the bar, the
prisoner's wife, crying violently, came forward, and begged
that the things which had taken from her lodgings might
be restored to her. She had not participated in the plunder
which her husband had obtained, who must have had seine
means of getting rid of the property he got, as he did not
expend it on his family.
The Loan MAYOR 'directed that she should have those
articles returned to her which were not claimed by any
other person.

John Collins, alias Dingo, was brought before Mr.
Alderman ANSLEY yesterday, on suspicion of having
stolen two paintings and other articles from one of the
porter's lodges at the Blue-coat School.
Martin, the City-officer, stated that the prisoner, who
was known to the police, was given into custody on
Monday night, for threatening to murder his wife, and, on
being brought before the Magistrate next day, Brattle-
brook, one of the beadles of Christ's Hospital, attended
and said he had been robbed of two pictures and other ar-
ticles, during his temporary absence from his lodge about
noon on Monday, and he had private information that
the prisoner was seen near the spot at the time. In
consequence of this Mr. Ald. ATKINS granted a search-
warrant, and witness found at the prisoner's lodging, in
East•passage, Cloth-fair, the two pictures, various
house-breaking implements, 60 skeleton-keys, about
200 keys of different sizes, a counting-house dial,
made by Viner, a duplicate respecting another dial
pledged for 255., a writing-case, some new account-books,
and some toys and glass. There was a set of keys quite
bright from being constantly carried about, and tied up
closely with flannel, that they might not jingle in carrying.
If the prisoner were remanded, lie hoped to be able to find
owners for the property that had not been claimed.
The prisoner said these had been left at his lodging
about two o'clock on Monday, while he was absent. His
name had been given up by his wife.
Mr. Alderman ANSLEY would give him an opportunity
of producing this man, by remanding him till Friday.
Robert Key, shopman with Mr. Hubbard, a tobacco-
nist in Barbican, was charged with embezzling several
sums of money he had been entrusted to receive from his

Yesterday Margaret Thorne, alias Clowes, was ex-
amined, charged with having stolen, in the dwelling-house
of her master, Thomas Chitty, Esq., barrister-at-law, of
No. 5, Calthorpe-street, one silver spoon, three bottles of
wine, wearing apparel, and considerable other property.
The prisoner was fully committed.
Mr. Henry Brown, tinman, of Lower-road, Islington,
appeared at this office on a summons, charging him with
unlawfully detaining a 51. note, the money of an elderly
lady, named Pugh, who resides at No. 4, Shepperton-
street, Islington.

On the 21 of February, the defendant was at the house
of the plaintiff, when she complained that her cockatoo
bad bitten her severely in the hand, and, having also bitten
a next door neighbour's child, she had determined to poison
asked if she wouliclet film haveTAll44ll billVlttf.n4t.n)
stated that she was glad to dispose of it so easily. The
defendant thereupon carried off his prize ; but the lady,
having relented, sent her servant on the following day to
the defendant's house, who took away the bird, leaving in
exchange the Si. note in question; and he having been
since applied to to return such money, and refused so to
do, the present steps were taken to compel him.
Mr. ROGERS-Well, Mr. Brown, why don't you return
the 51. ?—Brown : I consider, your Worship, that I have
legal claims to it.
Mr. ROGERS—But then you have been no loser by
taking the bird, and why keep the money ?—Brown
Your Worship, the bird was given to me, and why take it
away again ?
Mr. Roazas—l certainly cannot compel you to return
the money ; but this much I must say, that I consider
you ought to do solwithout any further hesitation.—Brown
I have plenty of witnesses to prove that the Si. was
given me in exchange fur the bird, and that 1 shall keep
it there is no doubt.
After some further remarks from Mr. ROGERS the par-
ties left the office, ale defendant insisting on his right and
title to the 51.
Tuesday evening Berry Cartwright was placed at the

Yesterday Daniel Lynch, charged with the murder of
a potboy named William Harrington, was final).- examined.
The same facts proved upon the inquest were again de-
tailed, and the prisoner was committed to Newgate to

WOR S HIP-S TREE T.

In consequence of complaints having been made to the
police stationed in the neighbourhood of Stamford-hill of
a number of robberies having lately been committed upon
the premises of gentlemen residing there, the former have
since been upon the alert, and in consequence succeeded
yesterday morning in taking two of the g tng into custody
—namely, Charles Head and Charles Higgins.
The prisoners hating been placed at the bar, the officers
produced two large rush baskets containing two fine ducks,
two drakes, and eighteen fat fowls, which they found upon
the prisoners.
Police constable 132, N, met the prisoner (Higgins) in
Red Lion-lane with a basket full, and his pockets were also
filled with fowls ! Witness had seen him but a few mo-
ments before part from Head. Higgins then said he was
going to the Bull and Mouth to send the fowls into the
conntry. " What! without a direction?" observed wit-
ness. " Besides, they are warm ! Does your master send
them into the country ready cooked'," Finding the pri-
soner made no reply he took him also into custody. The
fowls had all been recently killed.—Rmanded.
UNION-HALL.
An officer of St. George's parish attended for the pur-
pose of making the following application :
The applicant said that when the cholera first made its
appearance in London, the authorities of the above popu-
lous parish engaged a large house opposite Bethlehem-hospi-
tal, St. George's-fields, for the reception of persons
attacked with the complaint. Previously to the adnaission
of patients, some difficulty was experienced in procuring
a person to take charge of the house. At length, ho-
ever, an old woman, accustomed to nursing sick persons)
presented herself as a candidate, and was placed in posses-
sion of the hospital, and the keys of the same entrusted to
her safe keeping. She had not been long in her new situ-
ation before patients were admitted, and as admissions
increased, they (the parish officers) were desirous
of dispensing with the services of the old dame ;
but she disregarded the order to quit, set them at defiance,
and positively refused to deliver up the keys,
her house was her castle, and out of it she would not gor
mil-se carried off by the cholera. She kept her promise,
and no entreaties, although informed of her situation,
would induce her to leave the hospital. saying that
The Magistrate (Mr. MURRAY) said that it was evi-
dent the old lady was a non-contagionist—(Laughfer)-7
and added that the applicant had better apply to his soli-
tor ou the sub;ect.
The old woman still remains in ppssession of the house,
and nothing will induce her to resign the keys.
Yesterday, Mr. Lrady, a surgeon, in Charlotte-street
Blackfriars-road, waited on the sitting Magistrate (Mr.,
MURRAY), for the purpose of detailing the followtug
circumstances :
Mr. Bradt stated that on Saturday evening last, a
i
woman name(/' Sarson, residing in Cashier's-grounds, n
the parish of St. Saviour, was taken ill with all the pro-
minent symptoms of cholera. When he visited the case he

The overseer promised the Magistrate that the Board of
Health should be made acquainted with the case, and at
the same time the parish officers would make the necessary
arrangements for the immediate removal of the body.
