POLICE INTELGIOBNCE—March 13,

GUILDHALL.—A tall thin young man, named
Gifford, was charged with the following impudent
robbery.

Mr. -Scanlon said,—l am the editor of a journal
called the Literarium, and live in Cecil street,
Strand. I left the office in New-Bridu-street last
night, a few minutes past 10 o'clock, and was
proceeding through Fleet street towards my house,
when I was stopped by a crowd, near Wine-office-
court, immediately opposite the fire. Prisoner and
several other persons were rushing to and fro, and
at length they surrounded me, and the prisoner,
placing himself very close in front of me, looked me
full in the face, and with practised boldness he
pulled open my outside coat, which was buttoned,
with such violence that he tore away the buttons,
and then thrust his hand forcibly into my waistcoat
pocket, and took my gold watch, which cost twenty
guineas. I saw him pass it to a man, dressed in
fustian, who was standing by him, and immediately
made ff with it, by stooping and working his way
through the crowd. I at'empted to follow him,
but was impeded by his associates, who closed round
me, and prevented me from getting out of the crowd.
I then secured the prisoner, never having left or
lost sight of him for an instant, and handed him
over to the custody of the officer. 1 felt his
hand pulling at my watch, and when 1 got out
of the crowd I found my Albert guard hanging
loose from the buttonhole of my waistcoat.
Prisoner—Did you see me tail() the watch ?
Mr. Scanlon—Certainly ; and with the greatest
deliberation and determination. There was no
attempt at disguise in the matter. It was done
with the most daring boldness.
Police-constable 286 said—l took the prisoner
into custody, and with the assistance of several
firemen, I succeeded, with great difficulty, in get-
ting him from the crowd. A mob of his compa-
nions then tried to get him away, but I afterwards
took him to the station.

Alderman Lawrence committed the prisoner for
,rial.

Prisoner—Cannot you deal with it summarily t
Alderman Lawrence—Certainly not. The case
is too serious to be disposed of in that way.
The prisoner was then removed.

SOI7THWARK.—Mr. Thomas Lintott, a gen-
tleman residing at Swancombe, near Northfleet,
and a magistrate of the county, was charged with
being drunk and disorderly at the South-Eastern
Railway terminus, London-bridge, and refusing to
leave when requested.
It appeared from the evidence of the company's
servants, that on the previous evening the prisoner
came to the North Kent Railway station, at Lon-
don-bridge, and wanted to go by train to North-
fleet, and that they, seeing that he was drunk, and
knowing that he had been drunk before on their
line, and greatly annoyed the passengers, gave him
into custAly.
The prisoner, who denied that be had ever been
drunk in his life, and asserted that he bad been un-
justly accused because he had put the company to
an expense of 2001., and did not fee the porters as
he formerly did, was fined ss.
Carl Koenig, Heinrich Thomson, and Frederic
Elevert, firemen on board the Planet, Hamburg
steamer, were charged with smuggling Thirty lbs.
of foreign tobacco was found among the coal in the
bunkers, to which Koenig and Thomson alone had
access, and 3lbs. of tobacco was found on the per-
son of Elevert.

On the two former the magistrate inflicted a
penalty of 1001., or six months' imprisonment ; on
the latter, treble the duty and value of the tobacco
found on him, viz., 31. 2s. 9d., or one months' im-
prisonment.

The prisoners' who pleaded guilty, were, in de.
fault of payment, committed to prison.

LAMBETH.—John Frewin, keeper of the door
leading to the kitchen at the Crystal Palace, was
finally examined on the charge of receiving money
for his employers and not accounting for it. It ap-
pesred that the prisoner had sold certain knuckles
of ham, the property of the Messrs. Staples, the
contract nurvexora to the Orvatal Palartp, _to o._no,
that in consideration of the prisoner's family,
and the week's imprisonment which he had
undergone, he did 'not wish to press the matter
further. Mr. Norton would not consent to the
prisoner's discharge, observingthat there were three
cases proved against him, and for each of these he
should fine him 5/. or a month's imprisonment.
The prisoner was locked up for some time, but ulti-
mately paid the 151.
Mr. Norton observed, that since the former
hearing of this case he bad received a number of
letters requesting that he should publicly declare
what were legally considered the perquisites of ser-
vants. In reply to them he would say that he
knew of no legal perquisites, and for his own part
he would say there shoukl be none, as they inva-
riably led to and encouraged dishonesty in servants.
He had been informed that the cart that went about
arly in the morning receiving refuse was very of-
ten msde the vehicle of extensive plunder ; that
untouched joints and whole Yorkshire hams found
their way into them, and the police 'would do well
by keeping an eye on thall.
