The ~ourse of exchange at New York on London for bills at
60 days' sight is about 146 per cent. At this rate there
is no profit on the importation of gold fr.= the United
State!).

Prisoner—You say in your evidence that I threw you
down. Now, when I snatched at your purse did you not
cling to mo and fall down ?
Mr.Flowers—lt will be important to the prisoner for you
to answer that question, as it will make a material differ-
ence in the offence : whether or no it was a highway rub-
bery with.violenco.
Prosecutrix —I think he put out his foot and thus caused
me to fall to the ground, but I will not be certain. I can-
not say positively how it was I fell to the ground. I only
clearly recollect being there and the prisoner beating my
hand.

Mr. Flowers—lt was quite daylight when the robbery
occurred. You are quite sure the prisoner is the man that
robbed you ?
Prosecutrix—Oh, yes. I had a good opportunity o
seeing his face.

Police-constable 144 said hd was on duty at Somerset
House when the prosecutrix informed him of the robbery,
and told him the thief had run through the gates. He
went in pursuit of him, and meeting with another con-
stable he told him of the circumstance, and shortly after
the prisoner was taken. At the station-house .£1 Bs. Gd.
was found on the prisoner—the exact sum prosecutrix had
been robbed of. Witness afterwards looked for the purse,
and found it on the Thames embankment, very near the
spot where the prisoner was secured. It contained a small
Swedish coin, which the prosecutrix at once identified as
her property.
Police-constable 108 F said he was also on duty at So
merset House, and, observing the prisoner run down one
of the slopes to which there was no thoroughfare, he men-
tioned the matter to police-constable 144, when he was
taken into custody.
Mr. Flowers asked whether the prisoner was known ?
Sergeant Ackrell said he knew the prisoner to be an old
thief. He had been several times in custody, and had been
convicted of felony, when he was sentenced to four years
penal servitude at the Middlesex Sessions. He had done
nothing else but thieving since he had served his sentence.
Prisoner—That's wrong. I don't deny the previous
conviction ; but I wasn't, as he says, four years, it was
only three.
Mr. Flowers—Well, that .can be clearly proved on an-
other occasion. Have you anything to say why I should
not commit you for trial ?
Prisoner—No ; I've nothing to say.
Committed for trial accordingly.
Abraham Sidelman, a Frenchman, and Robert Hopewell,
were placed at the bar, charged with assaulting the police.
Constable Leary, 104 F, said he was on duty in Holborn
last night, when a disturbance arose against some women.
He went up, and whilst doing so Sidelman struck him ;
as he was taking him to the station-house the prisoner
Hopewell also struck him.
Sidelman said the constable's statement was untrue.
He did not strike him—he only interfered when he saw
the policeman strike one of the girls, and told him that
he would not have done such a thing with impunity had
he been in France.

Hopewell said he did not strike the policeman. He was
altogether mistaken with respect to him.
The constable denied striking or even pushing either of
the women.

Mr. Flowers thought it important that the girl who it
was alleged was struck should be in attendance.

Sidelman said tho girl was a poor-looking person, and
was probably afraid to attend.

lir. Flowers said however poor and shabby she might be
she would get the same justice as the richest lady in the
land. He should adjourn the case, admitting Sidelman to
his own bail. Hopewell, who clearly had no right to in-
terfere, he should fine 2s. 6d.
