POLICE INTELLIGENCE.

MANSION-HO USE.

A heavy stupid-looking fellow, named James Carter, was
brought before the Lord MAYOR on Saturday, charged
with having broken into and robbed the house of Mr.
Hum, cork-cutter, of No. 81, Fenchurch-street.
Mr. Hum stated that before six o'clock on the morning
of the Bth instant, upon going down stairs to open the door
for the workmen, he saw the prisoner, who was a complete
stranger, apparently fast asleep under a bench amongst the
cork-Cuttings. Upon his person were found a silver snuff-
box, a silk handkerchief, and other things, which witness
had left in the dining-room the night before. A parcel of
bed-furniture, and some decanters, cruet-stand, silver spoons,
a silver milk-pot, arid other articles, which had also been
removed from the dining-room, were found in a bag, but
the whole intention was frustrated by the sleeping propen-
sities of the person who had made the preparations.
Plaistow, the officer, stated that he went to examine the
premises, and found that an entry had been made at the
back of the house by breaking two panes of glass. The
fastenings in the front were not touched. He found the
articles named in a basket and a bag.
Bull, the prosecutor's workman, deposed that upon en-
tering the shop in the morning, when his master opened the
door, he saw, while he was looking for a pair of shoes, the
prisoner asleep, huddled up. Upon being pulled up, the
prisoner stared about, and looked quite stupid and drunk.
There was a ladder from the yard to the roof of the ware-
house, and, upon ascending, he found under the tiles a
crow-bar. What a man in his senses could have to do with
going up such a dangerous journey to hide a crow-bar, he
could not tell. There was a wall between the premises and
a public-house.
The female servant of the house stated, that on the night
before the burglary was committed, she put the tinder-box
and, a candle upon the table in the kitchen for the men
who were to come at an early hour to work. The tinder-
box was found at the foot of the stairs, and the candle was
found half-burnt away in the workshop. Two screws had
been taken out of the lock of the counting-house, but the
burglar could not disengage the lock.
The LORD MAYOR--
_-Well, prisoner, what have you to
say to this charge ? Prisoner—l know nothing at all
about the business, your Lordship. I was with a friend
the night before, and I got so blind drunk that I didn't
know what became of me. How I got into this gentle-
man's house I can't tell, but in the condition I was in I
don't suppose I could have got in except the door
was open.

Here it was stated that every door bad been closed and
locked before the family retired.
The LORD MAYOR-But how did the silver snuff-box
happen to get into your pocket ? Prisoner—That's what
astonishes me, for I don't take snuff.—(A laugh.)-
The LORD MAYOR—No, nor are you in the habit of
using a silk handkerchief either, I dare shy, and yet Mr.
Hum's somehow or other, got into your pocket along with
the snuff-box. Prisoner—How to account for it is quite
out of my power.

The LORD MAYOR (to Mr. Hum)—Was there any
wine or spirits in the house which this man could have got ?
Mr. Hum—No ; there was no more than half-a-pint of
gin, but that. was gone.
The LORD MAYOR said it was probably that half-pint of
gin that saved the house from being plundered effectually.
The prisoner had, no doubt, drank before he broke into
house, to obtain the necessary quantum of courage, and,
after having entered, drank again, to congratulate himself.
The prisoner was then fully committed for trial.
