POLICE INTELLIGENCE.—Feb. 14.

MANSION-HOUSE.—Richard Corrie Bache,
who formerly represented the ward of Langbourn
in the Court of Common Council for the City of
London, who has been in custody for several days
upon the.charge of embezzling between £6,000 and
£7,000 belonging to his employer, Mrs. Elizabeth
Tull, who carries on a very extensive business as a
rope and twine manufacturer in Fenehurch-street,
was placed at the bar in charge of Moss, a detective
policeman, before Sir R. W. Carden and Alderman
Hale, for re-examination upon the above charge.
Mr. Lewis, sen., again attended to conduct the
prosecution. Mr. Wontner appeared for the pri-
soner. _

The evidence that was adduced on the former
occasion went to show that the prisoner had been in
the service of the prosecutrix and her late husband
for nearly 40 years, and the utmost confidence was
placed in him during the whole of that period.
Since the death of the prosecutrix's husband, which
took place about 10 years ago, the prisoner had had
the entire management of the cash accounts and
the control over the books, most of the entries
being made by him. It seemed that he took advan-
tage of the confidence thus reposed in him to ap
propriate very large sums of money to his own
purposes, and in one instance it appears that he
kept back no less than £2OO in one day, by deduct-
ing that amount from the sum he should have
paid into the bankers, Messrs. Hankey and Co., and
paying the difference to his own private account,
which he also kept at Messrs. Hankey's. Another
mode by which the prisoner also succeeded in get-
ting possession of considerable sums of money was
by miscasting the amounts of the daily receipts
and making them appear to be much smaller than
they really were.
The evidence that was adduced yesterday was
mostly of a formal character, a number of witnesses
who were customers to Mrs. Tull being examined
to prove the payment of certain amounts to the
prisoner, and the accountant, Mr. Whinney, of the
firm of lardintr, Pullein, Whinney, and Gibbons,
proving the falsification of the books in respect to
the different items that were the subjects of the
present charge. Mr. Cooper, a clerk in Messrs.
Hankey's bank, also proved the short payments on
the books.
Ms. Wontner did not dispute any of the items or
cross-examine any of the witnesses who were called
in support of the prosecution, and at an early stage
of the case it was arranged between him and Mr.
Lewis that the case should be again adjourned.
Mr. Lewis said he did not think he should be
able to complete the case by the ensuing session.
Mr. Wontner said he had no objection to the
case standing over to the April session.
Mr. Lewis then said he had another charge of a
different character to prefer against the prisoner,
namely, one of stealing a large quantity of hemp,
the property of Mrs. Tull. It appeared that on the
29th of April, 1859, the prisoner purchased of
Messrs. Scott and Son, 35 tons of hemp, through
Messra. Shroeder and Morton, brokers, on account
of Mrs. Tull. He disposed of 25 tons on account of
the firm, but the warrant for the other 10 tons he
had deposited at the City Bank as security for a
loan, and the City Bank had since disposed of the
warrant in payment of their money.
Mr. James Scott, merchant, deposed that he sold
to Mrs. Tull, through Messrs. Shroeder and Morton,
35 tons of hemp, on the 29th April, 1859, the net
value of which was £1,224 Ils. Bd, He gave war-
rants for 30 tons, and a delivery order for five tons.
Mr. Charles Schroeder, Russia broker, deposed

that on the 29th April, 1859, he bought the hemp
alluded to from Messrs. Scott, for Mr. Bache, on
behalf of the firm of Tull and Co.
James Rowlett, clerk at Watson's wharf, Wap-
ping, said that 25 tons of hemp 'were delivered to
Messrs. Tull and Co., and the warrant for the other
10 tons was transferred to Messrs. Cleghorn and
Dunbar on the 10th December, 1859, and part of
the hemp still remained at the docks.
Mr. Lewis said that was as far as he could go
with the case then, and he should ask for a further
remand, to bring witnesses from the City Bank to
prove the granting of the loan and the depositing
the warrant as security.

WANDSWORTH.—A young man named Wm.
Norwood, was placed in the dock before Mr. Ing-
ham, charged with stealing a pony belonging to
Richard Fletcher, a chimney sweeper, of Wands-
worth.
It appeared in evidence that the prosecutor had
permission to turn his.pony into Mount-road Burial
Ground, at East Mill, Wandsworth, and it was
seen safe about 10 o'clock on Monday morning last.
At half-past 12 o'clock the prisoner was seen
riding the pony along the Wandsworth-road
tcwards Clapham, and it then had its tail

Shortly i t sbe

apparently
1 o'clock the prisoner presented himself at the shop
of James Dunn, a greengrocer, in Union-street,
Clapham, and asked him if he wanted to buy a
pony. He said, " I have a nice sound one here I'll
sell cheap." He was asked what he called cheap,
and he said a £5 note. Dunn took the pony on
trial upon,an agreement that he should pay £4 for
it. A deposit was paid, and Dunn kept possession
of the pony until applied to by the police. The
prisoner was taken into custody, and he told the
constable that a gentleman found the pony in his
garden, and he asked him to turn it on to the com-
mon, and he did so. However, at the station he
told the reserve constable that on the Monday
morning he met a gipsy on Wandsworth-common,
and he asked him (the prisoner) to " chop" his
horse for a pony. He went into the burial ground
with the gipsy, and assisted in catching the pony.
They made the chop, and he took the pony to
Union-street, and sold it for four sovereigns.
It was stated that there was a former conviction
against the prisoner, and that there were other
charges.
Mr. Ingham remanded him for a week.
