POLICE INTELLIGENCE.

G UILDJJALL.
Arr. Russell, of Printing-house-square, Blackfriars,
attended on behalf of several respectable inhabitants
of the parish, to request the interference of the Ma-
gistrate in respect to a nuisance in their vicinity,
which they apprehended, if it did not generate the
disease, must aggravate the severity of it. The
Corporation had let the City Wharf at the bottom
of St. Andrew's-hill, Doctors' Commons, to Messrs.
Chilman and Hancock, and a part of it was occupied
as a receptacle for filth, where it was the custom to
allow it to accumulate for six months. When it
was removed the effluvia which arose on stirring the
mass was sickening, and he thought dangerous, and
it was perceived to hang about the neighbourhood
for three or four days afterwards. They had now
commenced removing the filth, and since Saturday
last eleven cases of cholera had occurred, ten of
which had terminated in death. The first case oc-
curred close to the wharf. The inhabitants of the
parish began to feel considerable alarm on the subject.
Sir PETER LAURIE said he believed the Board of
Health was sitting in Guildhall, and that Board
would be the best able to afford the inhabitants ad-
vice and assistance. If, however, Mr. Russell
should not find the Board sitting, if he would re-
turn he (Sir Peter) would endeavour to assist him.
He was happy to say that at noon on Thursday
there was only one cholera patient remaining in the
Coldhath-fields Prison.

Yesterday Sarah Solomons, a young Jewess, was
finally examined on the charge of having feloniously
received a 51. note and other property, which had
been stolen from the chambers of Thomas John
Graves, Esq., barrister•at-law, No, 2, Fig-tree-court,
Temple, when the evidence was fully gone into.
The prisoner was dressed in an extravagant style of
finery, and was attended by Mr. J. Isaacs as her
solicitor, and Mr. CLARKsON as her counsel.
Mr. Graves deposed that on his return to his
chambers from the country on Monday, the 18th of
June, he discovered that the doors had been broken
into, and a desk, containing a number of gold seals,
brooches, a chain, and other trinkets, a quantity of
plate, and several Bank of England notes, amongst
which were four for 51. each, also forced open, and
all the contents stolt,t the atbandk--aba k)o. out.

he did not know the numbers of the notes.

A clerk from Puget and Co.'s, the bankers, de-
posed that the 51. note now produced, on which was
written, " Mrs. Sanders, No. 15, Liverpool-street,
Bishopagate," was one of a Number which he paid
to Mr. Graves on Saturday, the 16th of June.
Mr. John Lyall, of Fenchurch-street, boot and
sh,

Aoe maker, stated that the prisoner called at his
shop on the evening of the 19th of June, and pur-
chased a pair of shoes for 61. and tendered the 5/.
note now produced in payment. He thought there
was something suspicious about both her and the
note, and asked her several questions, to which she
replied that her name was Saunders, and that she
lived at 15, Liverpool-street, Bishopsgate. At this
time witness's shopman came in and said, " Your
name is not Saunders, it is Solomons ;" upon which
she said, " You are quite right, but I gave the
name of Saunders because that is the name of the
person from whom I received it, and if send to you
inquire you will find it right," Witness upon this
gave her the change. Witness the next day sent it
to the Bank of;England, and while his man wasgone
the prisoner came in and asked it' he had made in-
quiry about the note, and if he had found it right.
He said he had made no inquiry, bat had
sent it to the Bank of England. She said,
" What name did you put upon it ?" and lie said,
" Saunders." "0, then," said she, "it is quite
correct; for the fact is, Sir, that my husband left it
on the counter by oversight, and I took it unknown
to him, because I wanted to purchase a few things
to go to a wedding. I have now brought the money
with me to take it up from you, but as it is gone to
the Bank it can't be helped." She then went away.
Mr. Graves—He had been to 15, Liverpool-
street, and no person of the name of Saunders was
known there.

Samuel Stevens said he went to the prisoner's
house in Rosemary-branch, Rosemary•lane, with a
search-warrant, and when he mentioned the ~L
note she at first denied any knowledge of it; but,
when told it had been traced, she said her husband
had left it on the counter, as before stated. When,
however, witness was about to bring her away in
custody, she said, " I will tell you the truth about
it; the fact is, I received it from a gentleman I met
in the street for certain favours."

Mr. ROE, upon this evidence, fully committed
her for trial, and the witnesses were bound over to
prosecute.
Mr. ROE mentioned as a fact within his own
knowledge that an immense number of robberies had
been committed in the Inns of Court within the last
two or three months.
LAMBETH-STREET.

Yesterday, Mr. Kelly, a medical gentleman re-
siding in Shadwell, attended before the sitting ma.
gistrates, Messrs. NateroN and WALKER, and made
the following statement, relative to the increase of
the cholera :—He said that on Sunday last he was
requested by a Roman Catholic priest to visit some
persons in Cartwright-street, Rosemary-lane, who
were labouring under the effects of cholera. On
going there, the scenes of human misery and wretch,
edness which presented themselves, it would be im-
possible for him to describe. Every rown, exhibited
a picture of real distress. Men, women, and child-
ren, were huddled together without food or raiment,
and many of them suffering in different stages of
that painful disease, the cholera. Some idea might
I be formed of the rapid increase of the disease when,
from Sunday evening until the night before, no less
than fourteen persons fell victims, to its ravages
in Cartwright,etreet alone, and if something
was not done to check its progress, he much
feared it would increase to a most alarm-
ing degree. Many of the persons who died
were stout hearty young men, who were carried
off in a few hours by the disease. He had seen a
father and son, who were in good health at two
o'clock in the afternoon, at tan o'clock on the same
night both were corpses. He (Mr. Kelly) had
continued to attend on the persona affected, and
