POLICE INTELLIGENCE.

BOW-STREET.

On Saturday night a young man named Twalmar
was brought to this office, and underwent an ex-
amination before GEO. ROWLAND MlNstruLL, Esq.,
on a charge of robbing his master, John Lloyd, Esq.
of Languillon, near Carmarthen, on Sunday last.
Early on Friday morning the Magistrates of this
office received a letter from the prosecutor by post,
nforming them that his livery-servant, whose de-
scription was given (18 years of age, five feet five
inches in height, and with a defect in one eye), had
absconded on Sunday last from Languillon, carrying
with him between 30/. and 40/. in silver moneys,
and other property. The letter was put into the
hands of Ellis, one of the principal officers, who,
without loss of time, went in quest of the prisoner,
and he speedily ascertained that a person answering
his description had arrived in London. The
officer traced him to the residence of a relative,
in the vicinity of Whitechapel-road, and passed
by him several times as he stood at the door
of the house, but was doubtful whether or not
he was the person he wanted, as he could not
then discover the defect in his eye- The young
man left the house, and walked along the street, fol-
lowed by the officer who accosted him, and ob-
served that he thought he had seen him somewhere
before. The young man replied, " Very likely, hut
lie had no recollection of the circumstance." " You
come from the country—Wales, I think," observed
the officer.—" No, I do not," was the reply. "Pray
what may be your name ?" quoth the offi?,er.
" Curtis—William Curtis," the young man unhesi-
tatingly answered. "Do you live in London ?"
said Ellis. " Yes," was the reply. "In what
street ?" asked Ellis. The young man said he
could not think of the name of the street. The
officer got in front of the young man, and was still
unable to observe the defect in his sight. He sus-
pected that he might be" on the wrong scent," and
not being anxious to have an action brought against
him for an assault or false imprisonment, be determi-
ned to play a cautious game. He mentioned the words
Price, Sunday, Wales, &c., and allowed the young
man to walk a short distance before him, when he
ran away as fast as he could. This was con-
viction streng to the officer, who pursued and
captured him. On the way to the office, after Ellis
observed the defect in his vision, he admitted he
was the person the officer was in pursuit of, anti ac-
counted for being out of livery by stating that he
had sold his clothes.
The officer having ssvorn to the above facts, Mr.
MlNsiium. asked the prisoner if he bad any thing
to say ? He replied that he was innocent of the
robbery imputed to him.

. _
He vas dressed in a short blue jacket and
trousers, like a midshipman. He was remanded till
evidence arrives from Wales.

VICTIMIZING.—A few weeks since we gave an
account of the victimizing adventures of Captain
Matthews, who had patronized Searle's coffee-
house and other hotels. Shortly afterwards the
Captain, with his wife and family, were found in
the middle of the night sitting on the steps of a
dool, having no house to go to, and totally desti-
tute. They were brought before the Magistrate,
and the Captain on that occasion told a long tale of
distress, which, being afterwards publiskied in the
newspapers, strongly excited the public sympathy
in his favour, and several sums of money were for-
warded to the Magistrates towards relieving him
from his difficulties. Hearing of this subscription,
the Captain applied fur the money, but the Ma-
gistrates refused to part with it until some further
inquiries were made respecting him ; and they di-
rected that out of the money he should, in the first
place, discharge the debts he had incurred at the
different hotels.

On Friday Mr. Sayers, the proprietor of Seatle's
coffee-house, one of the Captain's victims, applied
to Mr. Minshull for the amount of his account against
the Captain.
_ _

Mr. •MINSHULL said he was very sorry that a
large sum (nearly 1000 had been subscribed by a
benevolent public for a man whom he had ascer-
tained, on inquiry, did not deserve a shilling. He
was almost daily receiving letters from persons who
had been duped by the Captain, who, he was con-
vinced, was a very bad fellow. He (Mr. Minshull)
did not know what to do with the money in his
hands. He was determined not to let the Captain
have it ; and he was afraid he was not authorised to
pay the debts out of it without his consent. He
would have the Captain brought before him, and if
he would not consent to pay those debts out of the
subscription raised for him, he (Mr. Minshull)
would consult with his brother Magistrates as to
what should be done with the money.
Mr. Sayers expressed himself satisfied with the
decision of the worthy Magistrate.
MARLBOROUGH-STREET.
After the usual office business was disposed of,
Moritz _Meyer, a Prussian Jew, dressed in a
fashionable manner, was placed at the bar, on sus-
picion of obtaining goods, by means of forged bills,
to the amount of between 3,000/. and 4,000/.,
from a number of tradesmen residing in Bath. The
case was of the most complicated nature. From
the statement however, of Mr. Hollings, a solicitor,
and several tradesmen from Bath, it appeared that
for the last two years a person who described him-
self as a native of Berlin, and who gave his name

Richenbergh, residing at No. 2, North Parade, had
been carrying on the business of goldsmith and
jeweller, and was considered as a,kighly,respectahlt
man. Within the last few Inanthi he-extended his-
::•businosik, .and dealt with neakly every triid64tn.an- in
1}.11h.,,,.".Ftte goods he purchased-wege a:fht most
costly description, ''ands' fpr which 'he '..gitve, -bills
paayable in London, btrtz,eitincipalfy upon a• Mr.
W. `M.tactt,-- of North Auidfey"=s,treet., . Property by
these metins:was obtained to the amount of about
4,00014 .but when the bills, Which had been trans.

mitted to London, became due, they were found
io be forgeries. On the receipt of this astound-
ing information, the persons who had transmit-
ted the bills to London proceeded to the resi-
dence of the circulator, and discovered that he
and his family, as well as all the goods, had
gone to London. An inquiry was instantly
instituted, when it was ascertained by Mr.
Hollings that packages, answering the description
given had arrived at the Rose Inn, Farringdon-
street, and which had afterwards been conveyed
:►way by one of the vans belonging to the Pantech-
nicon. Application was made to Mr. Smith, the
proprietor, who stated that a Battersea carrier,
named Green, had taken them away. An officer of
this establishment was consequently despatched to
Battersea, and after watching the house of Green
for some time, the prisoner entered, with the inten-
tion of removing some of the most valuable pro-
perty. He was taken into custody, and brought
to this office at a late hour on Friday night, when
he was remanded for further evidence until Saturday.
A gentleman of the name of Garratt, residing at
Walcot, Bath, attended, and deposed that the pri-
soner came to his house a few days since, and asked
him to cash a bill drawn upon Mr. Mason, which he
refused, but he subsequently discovered that several
'bills had been negotiated by the prisoner.
Mr. Holmes, a timber-merchant, also deposed,
that a person answering the description of the pri-
soner obtained goods of him to the amount of
551. 10s. 6d., for which he gave him bills upon the
said Mr. Mason, of 14, North Audley-street. Mr.
Holmes afterwards ascertained that no such person
resided there, and that all the bills were forgeries.
The prisoner denied in toto having any participa-
tion in the affair. His brother, he said, had nego-
tiated bills which he was quite certain were not for-
geries. The circumstance was strange to him, as
the persons complaining took good care never to
trust him a shilling. His brother had, no doubt,
acted foolishly, but when he last saw him in Lon-
don he told him that he was about to call his credi-
tors together, and satisfy them if possible. He con-
cluded by observing that the prosecutors appeared
determined to ruin him and his family.
After a long conversation the prisoner was re-
manded until Wednesday, in order to afford time
for the solicitor to procure further evidence to prove
that the prisoner was one of the principals in the
extensive forgeries and swindling transactions at
Bath.—The property found at Green's was ordered
to be taken care of.
