(Sittings in Error, before Lord CAMPBELL, the Lord
Chief Justice 'Muir's, Mr. Byron PARKE, Mr.
Justice PATTESON, and Mr. Justice COLERIDGE.)
The Judges assembled this morning in the Ex-
chequer Chamber, for the purpose of appointing the
days upon which their Lordships would sit to bear
cases in error. Their Lordships made the following
arrangement :—To take cases in error from the Court
of Queen's Bench on 'Wednesday, Nov, 27, and on

Baron PARSE announced that in all probabi-
lity the Court would give judgment in the case of

Mr. Justice PATTESON then expressed a hope that

several cases wt:ich were standing over from the
Court of Exchequer.
The Court then adjourned.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.
MANSION-LIOUSE.
Mr. Williams, of 211, Regent-street, was charged
before the Lord Mayor under the following circum-
stances :

Mr. George A. Northover, in the employment of
Messrs. Watts, of No. 6, Gutter-lane, Cheapside, silk
' warehousemen, said,—On Friday evening, between 7
and 9 o'clock, there were stolen from our warehouse
about 60 pieces of plain and fancy silks, value between
5001. and 6001. They were 24 inches wide, and from
12 to 80 yards in length. At a quarter to 7 o'clock
the porter and I went through the premises, and left
all right. The porter locked the warehouse dour and
the hall-door. We occupy the ground- floor.
The LORD MAYOR—Was anybody left in the house
to watch it ? Witness—Nobody. I should know the
silks again if I saw them, they are of so peculiar a
character. They were made for us, and not for any
other persons in the trade. I have seen the patterns
of some of the silks, but not the bulk.
The policeman who apprehended the prisoner here
produced 22 patterns of fancy silk.
Witness—l believe these to be the patterns of some
of the goods which were lost.
The LORD MAYOR—Are you sure that these goods
were made exclusively for your house ? Witness—
Yes. We have also lost goods of several other patterns.
The LORD MAYOY—Have you any knowledge of
the prisoner ? 'Witness—None whatever.
The LORD MAYOR—What are the prices of the
pieces which you have lost, and of which these are
the patterns ? Witness—From 3s. to 4s. 6d. a yard,
with the exception of one piece.
Mr. John Edmunds—l am in the employment of
Messrs. Shoolbred and Co., of Tottenham .court-road,
drapers. lam a buyer for the house. Last evening
I was called by Mr. Brown, one of the partners of
the firm, and introduced to Mr. Williams as having a
lot of silks to sell, of which he had brought patterns.
I saw the patterns, and asked about the price. The
prisoner said he had them to sell for a person who
stated at first that the price was 25., but afterwards
that is. 9d. was the price, and that if that price
would not answer he would take an offer, and
that the silks were to be sold that evening. Mr.
Brown said to Mr. Williams, "If we buy these
silks whom do we buy them of ? Are we to
buy them of you ?" The prisoner said " Yea" Mr.
Brown said, "Will it do to let you know in an hour
and a half? " Mr. Williams replied in the affirma-
tive, and appointed his house, 211, IZegetaastreet, for
the place of meeting, and he said to me "Take care of
these patterns, don't let anyone see them." I looked
at the patterns, and having seen things of the kind at
Messrs. Watts and Co.'s at 3s. ld. same time before,
I thought it to be my duty to go round to the house
to make iequiry, which I accordingly did. Mr.
Shoolhred went with me, and having commiiuicated
with the house, we afterwards communicated with the
police. At half-past six o'clock, the appointed time,
Mr. Shoolbred went with me to Mr. Williams, and
we aslzed him whether we could see the goads ? Mr.
Williams said " No, he had only get the patterns." We
asked him if the lengths were regular, and he said
they were long lengths, and that the shortest was 40
yards. Mr. Shoolbred said " Whose are the goods ?
Where are they ? " Mr. Williams said, "I am a

kind of agent employed to sell the goods for a party,
and if you wish particularly to see the party I shall
go and let you know all the particulars in the course
of an hour." We then left the place, and Mr. Wil-
liams came accordingly in the course of an hour. He
then said he knee nothing more of the person than
that he had left the patterns.
The LORD MAYOR—Had you seen the prisoner
before ? Witness—Never.
The LORD MAYOR—Have you any other evidence
to produce ? Inspector Mitchell—No more at pre-
sent, my Lord. We wish fora remand of the prisoner.
Mr. Clarkson, for the prisoner, said that under all
the circumstances he had only to ask the Lord Mayor
to accept of bail fur the appearance of the prisoner
upon a future day. Mr. Williams was a tradesman
residing in and carrying on business in Regent-
street, and it could not be supposed that a gentleman
so situated would not make every effort to bring to
justice the persons by whom he had been imposed
upon, or that he could have been guilty of house-
breaking himself. If Mr. Williams were locked up
it was quite impossible that the apprehension of the
persons who were the employers of Mr. Williams
could be accomplished.
Inspector Mitchell—The prisoner upon being ques-
tioned about the persons for whom he acted could give
no description of them; all he could say was that one
was a tall man and the other a stout man, and he de-
clared that he knew nothing at all about them.
Mr. Clarkson said the Lord Mayor would take it
into consideration that nothing was found in the pos-
session cf the prisoner hut patterns of goods which
were said to have been stolen.
The LORD MAYOR said, the circumstances were
such as induced him to look at the proposition to
take bail with peculiar care. The prisoner had de-
clared himself to the persons to whom he went to sell
the articles of which he produced the samples as a
kind of agent to those who were anxious to dispose of
them, and offered to satisfy all the inquiries of the
former, and he afterwards denied all knowledge of
his employers. His Lordship then stated that he
would take hail, but it must be unexceptionable bail,
in two sureties of 250 each, and the prisoner himself
in the sum of 5001., to appear on a future dey.—The
prisoner was then remanded.
GUILDHALL.
John Collins was brought up on remand, and
pieced at the bar before Mr. Alderman Challis,
charged with feloniously cutting and wounding
James Clift, one of the officers of the East London
Union, with a clasp knife, with intent to do him some
grievous bodily harm.
Alderman Cuaaras—l shall remand this case until
to-morrow (Wednesday), in order that the depositions
may be prepared, as it is my intention to commit the
prisoner for trial on this charge.
I3OW-STREET.

George Duncan, a private in the Scotch Fusileer
Guards, was brought before Mr. Jardine, on suspicion
of stealing. foreign coins, a ring, &e., from Colonel
Charles F. Seymour, of the same regiment.
The prosecutor stated that he rented apartments in
the house of Mrs. Mansfield, of St. James's-place.
On Saturday morning last his landlady informed him
that her desk had been broken open the previous
evening, and several sovereigns abstracted from it,
adding that she suspected the prisoner or her servant,
as they were the only persons who had access to the
room at the time in question. In consequence of this
information, witness caused some inquiries to be in-
stituted, and, findin , that the prisoner had been
paying away a number- of fourpenny pieces and three-
penny-pieces, began to suspect that he had been rob-
bed himself. Witness.then discovered that about 6s.
worth of fourpenny pieces had been stolen from his
desk, and, upon a further search, it appeared that a
sixpence of the reign of William 111., a ring, and
some foreign coins were also missing. It was proved
that the prisoner had been asking the value of a ring
which he bad in his possession ; and that he had parted
with three coins, including a gold colonnade dollar,
to Ferdinand Tomecobic, a tobacconist, of 57, Pall-
mall, for 50 cigars. The prisoner had a quantity of
the cigars in his possession when searched at the bar-
racks.
Mr. JARDINE remanded the prisoner for a week.
MAI?YLEBONE.

Mr. Joseph Turnbull, residing at 16, York-place,
Kentish-town, was charged before Mr. Broughton, on
a summons which bad been obtained against him by
Mr. Joseph Bourne, who described himself as an
ecclesiastical studeet going into the ministry of the
St. Alexis Roman Catholic Chapel, situated in the
vicinity of defendant's
Mr. Wontner attended for the defendant, and the
hearing of the case, which occupied considerable time,
excited much interest.
Complainant, on being sworn, said—On Sunday,
the 3d instant, at a quarter past eleven o'clock, I
was in the chapel; service had commenced, and the
priest had just gone into the sacristy to change his
vestments. I looked round and saw the defendant
standing at the doorway, just within the chapel, at a
spot where the priest would precisely have to pass.
He had his hat on, and I told him that I would thank
him to take it off. He said he should not do so, and
I then said to him that he must go out of the chapel.
I took off his hat and gave it to him, and as I turned
round to go into the sacristy he struck me on the head
a tolerably hard blow with a walking-stick. He was
much excited at the time. A policeman who was at-
tending worship in the chapel, hearing a disturbance,
went out and took defendant to the station-house,
where I charged him with the assault, and he then
said he should charge me with assaulting him by
taking his hat off. The sergeant on duty said he
would not take either charge, as there were no marks
of violence perceptible, and he advised the parties to
make application to a magistrate.
By Mr. Wontner—He was within the second
door when he stood with his hat on, and was in fact
within the chapel. He was standing with his face to
the altar, and was beyond the gallery stairs. The
ceremony of sprinkling- had been performed before
mass, and the congregation were at the time of the
assault engaged in prayer. I had on a cassock, or
long cloth vestment buttoned all the way down. I
do not wear such a dress out of doors ; some do, but
it is not the usual custom in England. I was not at
ali uncivil to defendant, and I did not knock his hat
off; it did not fall from his head into the court-yard.
I have taken persons' hits off before under similar
circumstances, and would do it again. Defendant
told me that we Catholics were getting too " cock-a-
-hoop" just now. I did not put my fist in his face. If
I told the officer at the station that I knocked his hat
off, it was an extraordinary thing. I wo'nt swear,
however, that I did not do so. I have never, to my
knowledge, seen the defendant in the chapel before.
I can't say that my impression is that he came to
offer any insult or offence to our religion.
A sketch of the chapel with the hat flying into the
court-yard was here handed to the magistrate.
Sarah Byrne, housekeeper to the Rev. Mr. Ivers,
who usually officiated at the chapel, deposed to her
having on Sunday, the 3d inst., seen two persons
much incommoded while passing into the chapel
owing to the position which had been taken up by
the defendant. Witness heard complainant ask him
civilly to take his hat off, and, on his replying he
should not he (complainant) put up his band, but
whether the bat fell off or not she could not say. She
saw the assault committed upon complainant whilst
his hack was turned to re-enter the chapel.
Mr. Bitouarrroet—Do you ► f ten find occasion to
desire people to take off their hats ? Witness—The
sort of thing frequently happens, Sir, through per-
sons coming in to laugh at what they look upon as
idolatry. On the Sunday alluded to there was a
thanksgiving at all the Catholic churches by order of
the Archbishop, but there was no paper or any other
notice outside the door to indicate that there was
anthing more than usual going on. My impression
is the defendant stood were he did to impede the
public worship.
By Mr. Wontner—l asked the persons who were
impeded upon entering why they did not push against
the defendant, but I did not request complainant to
do so, being of opinion that his appearance in his re-
ligious vestments would be sufficient to induce de-
fendant to alter his position.
In reply to a question from Mr. BROUGHTON, com-
plainant said that the thanksgiving on the day alluded
to was for the establishment of the hierarchy in this
country.
The evidence of several other witnesses was gone
into, and it appeared from the statement of Sergeant
Green that complainant, when accused of having
knocked off defendant's hat, admitted that he had
done so.

Mr. Wontner addressed the magistrate, remarking
upon the contradictory nature of the complainant's
evidence, and alleging that defendant had no motive
whatever for offering the slightest insult to the reli-
gious observances which were going on. There was
a great hubbub just now about the Pope claiming su-
premacy in this and other countries, and the com-
plainant Bourne and the witness Byrne, in their
exultation at the establishment of the Catholic
hierarchy here, had, in the height of their zeal, gone
somewhat too far in this matter. Defendant was a gen-
tleman who would be very sorry to offer any interrup-
tion to any religious ceremony whatever, and since
the fracas he had been called upon by Mr. Dowling,
a member of the chapel, who was satisfied that
no offence was intended. It was then thought that
nothing more would be heard of the matter, but com
plainant, in despite of this, had thought fit to take out
a summons. He (Mr. Wontner) contended that his
client was really the aggrieved party, and that pro-
ceedings should have hen instituted by him against
the complainant Bourne.

Mr. BROUGHTON went through the evidence at
some length, and in the course of his remarks ex-
pressed a strong opinion with regard to the impro-
priety of defendant not taking off his hat while stand-
ing in a place of worship, no matter of what denomi-
nation the worshippers might be. Cumplainant had
an undoubted right to require defendant to take his
hat off, and upon his refusing to remove it for him.
,He had no right, however, to knock it off, which at
