them to have an almost distinct view of the whol
seine Fur ten minutes (according to the statetnen
of one of them on his afterwards entering the house)
had these guardians of the night stood before the
house, witnessing what they thcught was a
simple r.ct of chastisement on the part Of
a man towards his wife (or son, as another
said), at such an hour in the morning, and in one
of the most respectable houses in Great Hampton-
street ! While the conflict was going on, too, Miss
Marston implored them, for heaven's sake, to come to
the assistance of her father, and told them that if they
simply broke one of the panes of the front window
they would obtain access, as the shutters were not
fastened. Although both might be presumed to be
experienced officers, from the circumstance of one
ht irg a sub-inspector and the other a sergeant, yet
they do not appear to have had the least tact or presence
of mind, even when a glimmering of the real state Of
things came across them, and no proper precautions
were taken to prevent the escape of the burglars,
which they cons( vently effected at their leisure.
Ultimately the door wes opened from the inside, and

the- otlicecs found Mr. Marston in an insensible state,
covered from head to foot with blood, which flowed
chiefly from wounds about his head. He ..vos con-
ye) ed up to bed, and medical aid being sought, pt.
Bell Fletcher and others were soon in attendance. It
was found that the wounds he had received were of a
very serious character, and such as might render his
recovery a matter of the greatest uncertainty. In-
spector Glossop examined the premises in the course
of the morning, and took possession of a hat which
had been dropped by one of the burglars, al
well as the poker, which was covered with blood
and much bent. No property of any kind was missed
from the premises. Having a suspicion of the right
parties, he stationed sub-inspector Tandy and three
or four of the detective force, during the day, in a
lodging-house in Carey's-court, Moor-street, and be-
fore night they had in custody five young fellows,
most of whom belong to a gang of London thieites •
who have recently taken up their abode in Birming-
ham. Their names are—Christopher Heeley, Wil-
liam Wallace, George Green, Henry Jones, ar d
Henry Thompson, and the hat found by Mr. Glossop.
will, we believe, be identified as the property of one of
them. Conceiving that the officers mentioned above
had been guilty of a gross neglect of duty, Chief
Superintendent Stephens very properly summoned
them before the sub-committee of the watch commit-
tee on Tuesday last, when Miss Marston attended and
stated the facts of the case. A long and somewhat
angry discussion took place, but the result was that
Ihe men were simply remanded by the Mayor. 0a
inquiring at Mr. Marston's house last night, we found
he was somewhat better, although there is no probs..
hility of his being able to leave his bed for several
days. The-suspected parties will therefore be sirnpil
brought up to-day for remand.—Birmizigham Journal
