POLICE INTELLIGENCE.

BO W-STREBT.

At the evening sitting on Saturday, Mr. Thomas, the
police superintendant, came before Mr. Mrstsirum,, ac-
companied by Mr. Dermott and Mr. Morrison, surgeons,
and stated that he bad received an anonymous letter, in-
forming him that the body of a boy had been brought for
dissection, under very suspicious circumstances, to the dis-
secting-room of Mr. Dermott, one of the gentlemen pre-
sent, situate in Gerrard-street, Soho. Mr. Thomas added,
that he immediately proceeded to the house described, but
before he got there, he was informed that Mr. Dersnott
had proceeded to Woolwich, where the boy had died, for
the purpose of ascertaining personally the circumstances
connected with his decease. He (Mr. Thomas) saw the
body, and observed that the neck had been dislocated, and
that there was the mark of a rope having been passed
around it. These, and other appearances, induced him to
believe that the deceased had met with a violent death,
and his object in appearing before the Magistrate seas to
suggest the propriety of having a coroner's inquest on
the body.
11r. Dermott expressed his willingness to offer every
explanation in his power with regard to his possession of
the body, and stated that the body was brought to his dis-
secting-rooms on the previous day (Friday) by two re-
gular resurrection men, whom he thought he could swear
to if he saw them, but lie neither knew their names nor
where they lived. Perceiving the mark of the rope round
the neck of the boy, he conceived it to be a suspicious cir-
cumstance, and asked the resurrection-men how it hap-
pened. They replied that they had fixed a rope round
the neck of the subject in order to pull it up from the
grave. The tongue protruded, the face was swollen,
and there was also a tumefaction of the abdomen ; but this
he ascribed to the body baying been buried i❑ a damp si-
tuation. Feeling rather uneasy, he went to Woolwich
with Mr. Morrison, now present, for the purpose of satis-
fying himself as to the cause of death.
Mr. Morrison was a surgeon in the Royal Navy. He
made a drawing of certain marks, namely, a heart, an an-
chor, and a mermaid, which he discovered on the right
arm of the deceased ; and on reaching Woolwich, he
ascertained from Mr. Bossey, surgeon of the Convict
Hospital of that place, that a boy named William Keith
had died there on the NA) inst., arid Was buried at a place
called Pumford. He then went on board the convict ship
Ganyinede, where the boy who died had been confined,
and learned from some of the men on board that his right
arm had been marked similarly to that of the body which
which bad bee❑ brought to Mr. Dermott's establishment.
Mr. Thomas said that the body was full in flesh, and
bore no appearance of having died of a lingering disease.
The teeth had been extracted, and the appearance re-
sented was very similar to that of the Italian boy.
Mr. Minsilum, said, that after whet had occurred in
that room with respect to the case alluded to, he deemed
it right that in this instance a full inquiry should be made,
in order to relieve the public mind from any unfavourable
impression ; and for that purpose he should direct that a
coroner's jury should be summoned. Suspicion was suf-
ficiently strong to justify him in adopting that course.
Mr. Dermott had intended to apply to Mr. Thomas
upon the sultject, if that gentleman had not called on him.
Notice was then directed to be given to the parish offi-
cers of St. Ann's, with a view to summon a coroner's
jury, and summonses were ordered for the attendance of
witnesses from Woolwich.
MARLBORO UGH. STREET.
On Saturday, A. 13. Dottin, Esq., of Argyll-street,
Regent-street, and Bugle Hall, Southampton, attended at
this office, before Mr. DYER, the sitting magistrate.
From Mr. Dottin's statement, it appeared, that on his
return from his seat in the country to his residence in town
he discovered that during his absence his drawing-room
window had been fired through by ball, in three different
places. On a further search, three leaden balls were found
between the windows and shutters. Such a circumstance
naturally created considerable alarm, and he deemed it
necessary to make the occurrence known to the magistrates
at this office, more especially as the windows of other
gentlemen's residences in the neighbourhood had been si-
milarly perforated.

Mr. Dawson, who, we believe, is a military officer, and
has been residing in his present residence in Argyll-street
about five months, pledged his honour to attend, and hav-
ing bowed to the Magistrate, left the office.
The gun, &c. remain in charge of Mr. Plank.
An old mars, named Has/en, who, it was stated, was by
trade a carpenter, but who appeared more Ult.! au inhabi-
tant of another world, was charged with creating a crowd
of persons round the house of Mr. Rothschild, in Piccadilly.
It appears that the prisoner had a Bible in his hand,
and loudly exhorted all persons to repent, and leave off
their evil courses. He also begged of Mr. Rothschild not
to dabble in loans or in Stock-Exchange transactions, for
such practices were contrary to all religious principles. He
would not move off when desired by the police, and they
conveyed him to the station-house to give a lecture to some
of the prisoners. On being placed at the bar on S ittirday
morning, he stood in an erect position, with the Bible in
both hands, and he frequently raised it to his lips. All of
an instant he ejaculated, " I am yea, nay, and amen,—l
um what was yesterday, to-day, and to.morrow." Then,
raising his eye., he unuttered something to himself.
Mr. CONANT asked him if he would promise not to
preach again, when he repeated something like the un-
known tongue, and raised the book to his lips at the con-
clusion,--He was eventually discharged.
THAMES- P OLICE.

Henry Brant, a German, who has frequently been in
custody, was charged with defrauding John Thomas, an
old sailor, of 131. 10s.
UNION-HALL.

A few days since Mr. Shia, a baker, at Camberwell,
4,latained a warrant against a man for keeping a ferocious
flog, which bad bitten him and several others. The man,
when served with the warrant, cried and exhibited much

s; distress of mind, as he said, he knew his dog, for whic
he had a great regard rnu+t be sacrificed. On the mori
ing of the day appointed for the hearing of the warrant, I
took his dog, tied some stones round his neck, and thre
him into the Surrey canal. He then went home an
hung hill-twit. in an out-houss. His brother chancing
see him, cut hint down. He was on the point of deat
but medical assistance having been called in, he was r
covered. Under these circumstances the Magistrate
charged the warrant.

A respectable looking young man, named Ainsword

-11.21.1?YLE8 ONE.
On Friday, Thomas Coleman, conductor of one of MI
omnibuses, was brought before Mr. Rawias
sox, charged by Mr. Shillibeer with defrauding him of 3!
ty evening last.
Mr. Ilswr.imost committed the prisoner; but informs
him he would be admitted to bail, and Mr. Shillibeer ani
his witnesses were bound over to prosecute him at the nex
Old Bailey sessions.
Mr. Shilibecr had another case against the prisoner fa
receiving twelve shilling fares, and only accounting fir nine
on We Inesday last, on the journey from the city to Pad•
dington at one o'clock; but as he had not yet been abh
to discover the gen•leman who hail engaged eleven places
in Coleman-street to the Colosseum, and brought nine pa••
sengers, he could n it at present prove this case so clearly
as the last, but hoped to find the gentleman, when he would
prefer a second indictment against the prisoner at the session,
LAMBE TH- STREET.
Two persons, who lately returned from India by the
Lord Melville, made the following complaint :—On land-
ing late in the evening, they went to a lodging•house in
Poplar, where they slept. In the morning the landlady
demanded 11s. each. They offered to give ss. but she
would not take less, although the lodging had been of the
meanest description. The Magistrates said that this was
a frequent practice with such lodging-howe keepers. They
directed an officer to go with the applicants to the land-
lady and endeavour to make better terms.
