they had pearls, red stones, and such like in them.
(Two paste diamonds were here produced and
shown to witness.) No, these are not those I saw ;
they were larger and much better cut than these.
(A Brussels lace shawl was here shown to witness,
and which was sworn to at the last examination as
the property of Lady Ellesmere). After the last
examination Mrs. Jackson told me she should want
me to come here and state that I had seen this
shawl in her possession five years ago, but I told
her I could not do so, for I had not seen it at all.

Sergeant Evans—On discovering her ladyship's
lace veil at the prisoner's house, Ma chest of drawers
in the bed-room, the female prisoner said it belonged
to her before her marriage, and had been given her
by her mother. The black lace shawl, since sworn
to, I discovered in a box, with some man's clothes,
which she said were her husband's. That the female
prisoner said she had from a woman who lived with
her sister in the Hampstead-road. The drab dress,
also now produced and sworn to, she claimed as ono
of her own, and said she had had it cut up that it
might make frocks for the children.
The female prisoner, who was constantly in tears,
is near her confinement, and was therefore allowed
a seat. She denied this part/of the officer's state-
ment, and Mr. Lewis, who cited numerous cases,
contended that she could not be sent for trial, as
the husband alone, if either of them, was answer-
able for the offence.

Mr. D'Eyncourt thought differently ; the evi-
dence certainly now pressed closer upon the wo-
man, and he should increase her bail to two sure-
ties in 501. each.

Sergeant Evans opposed the roan's being liberated
upon bail, as there was a vast amount of property
still unrecovered, and if he were free the police
would have but small chance of recovering it. The
magistrate, however, increased Jackson's bail to
four in 501 each, which he could not find, and he
was therefore yesterday brought up in custody, the
wife surrendering to her bail.

Sergeant Evans, after a conference with the
Bench, now said,—l must apply, sir, for another
remand, as I have most important evidence to pro-
duce, and if I produce it now I should entirely
frustrate the ends of justice. I may also state that
since the last examination I have been to the pri-
son at the request of Jackson, and he then told me
that as he had a wife and children he wanted to
look after them, and he acknowledged that the
stolen box ht,d been brought to his house at night
time.

Mr. Lewis—r abject to any private communica-
tion being made to the magistrate by the officer.
We ought to know what it is.
Mr. D'Eyncourt—ln consequence of what has
now come to my knoviedge I shall refuse any bail
for the male prisoner at all. The wife's bail may be
extended to the next examination.

The female prisoner's bail was therefore again ac-
cepted, and she was liberated, while her husband
was again locked up.

SOUTHWARK.—Chat Nash, a young man of
respectable appearance, was charged with embezzling
the sum of 8/. 12s. 7d., the money of his employers,
Messrs. Hepburn and Co., tat ners and fellmongers,
Long-lane, Bermondsey, and sentenced to 6 months'
hard labour in the House of Correction.

Two very fine-looking coloured girls, about
18 or 20 years old, were brought before Mr. Bur-
cham for further examination, charged with bog-
ging in the public streets.
The prisoners, who were well conducted, and
apparently of good education, were seen on Satur-
day evening walking along the side of the kerb in
Blackman-street, dressed in white. One of them
carried a box, and the other a placard on which was
written "Fugitive Slaves." 85 M, seeing several
persons put copper money into their box, took them
into custody for begging, and when before Mr.
Coombe on Saturday evening they were remanded
until to-day, in order that inquiries might be made
about them.

The elder prisoner, an intelligent and good-look-
ing woman, said they were fugitives from Ken-
tucky. Tiley were born and brought up on a plan-
tation, and about 12 months ago their father died.
Their mother was sold to another distant planter,
and they were about to be parted and sold also,
when they succeeded in getting away to Phila-
delphia. There they were taken care of by a bene-
volent person, and through the kindness of some
free coloured persons there their passage was paid to
Greenock, where they arrived last spring. They
tried to get into domestic service, but being unable
to obtain situations there, they made their way to
London. Hero they were equally unfortunate, and
at the present time without the means of subsist-
ence. They had lived lately along with a labourer
and his wife named Flynn in a court in Bishops-
gate-street., and gained a few pence by selling tracts.
Mr. Burcham asked whether inquiries had been
made as to the truth of their story.
The constable replied that they had, and he had
reason to believe it was true.
Two officers of the Mendicity Society, who were
in attendance, also informed his Worship that they
were not known as beggars.
Mr. Burcham asked them what they were able to
do for a living.
The elder girl replied that they were both do-
mestic servants, but people objected to them in
such situations in this country owing to their
colour. They were, however, able to knit gloves.
Mr. Burcham told thorn that knitting gloves
would be much better than begging, which was not
allowed in this country. He would advise them to
knit some and sell them. The cold weather was
coming, and no doubt they would get a ready sale
for them.
They expressed their willingness to do so, pro-
vided they had the means to obtain the wool.

Mr. liu-rchain told them if their tstOrY was true
there was some commisseration for them, and he
did not think they were actual beggars. As they
seemed willing to obtain their livelihood by
their own labour, he would assist them in pur-
chasing wool. A shilling was found on them, and
he should direct 4s. to be added to it from the poor-
box, and he hoped with that they would be able to
earn their own sub•istence. He earnestly exhorted
thini not to be led away by bad women, and avoid
the streets of London.

The poor girls, who listened attentively to his
Worship, promised to comply, and thanked him
e irnestiy for the assistance he had so kindly ren-
dered them in a strange country. They thought
they should be able to gain a good living by glove
making.

LAMBETH. —Edward Grant, a journeyman
bricklayer, was brought befor3 Mr. Elliott on re-
mand, charged with committing a very brutal as-
sault on George Carpenter.

From the evidence adduced in the case it appeared
that on Saturday night week the injured man Car-
penter was at a public-house at the harsh-bate, and
on going out for a necessary purpose he was followed
by the prisoner, knocked down and violently kicked
and when released from his violence it was disco-
vered that his le-
(' was broken in two places, and
when carried to the hospital it was found that his
thumb was broken also. •

Jesse Cannon, 69 L, the constable who ha 3 the
case in hand, produced a certificate from the hos-
pital to the effect that the injured man is not yet
in a fit gate to attend and give his evidence.
Mr. Elliott, after a lengthened examination,
again remanded the prisoner for a week to give time
for the attendance of the injured man Carpenter.

WANDSWORTH.—Henry Zacariah Jervis, a
stout, portly man about 50 years of age, who de-
scribed himself as a solicitor, of 62, .N ewman -strec.t,
Oxford-stteet, Iras brdught before Mr. Ing-
ham for final examination, on the charge of obtain-
ing money from Mrs. Sarah Parker, a widow of a
member of the Stock Exchange, aged 70 years, who
was alleged to be insane, by means of false repre-
sentations.

Mr. lughatn committed the prisoner for trial at
the next sessions of the Central Criminal Court.
