STEALING A HORSE AND CART.—Richard Storey,
a carman, was brought up on remand before Mr.
Benson, charged with being concerned with others
in stealing a horse and cart and 24 bags of cochi-
neal, value £5OO, the property of Mr. Walter
Hartley, a licensed and bonded carman, of Lower
Thames-street.

The prisoner was in the service of Mr. Hartley,
and on the 23d of last month he received 24 bags
of cochineal of two persons at their warehouses in
Spitalfields, and he was to convey the same to
Fresh Wharf. He went out of his ordi-
nary route to that place, and stopped at a
coffee-shop is Leman-street, Whitechapel, to
partake of tea. While he was in the coffee-
shop his horse and cart were dives away. It was
submitted by Mr. Charles Young, for the rrose-
cation, that there was something more than negli-
gence in the conduct of the prisoner, and that the
robbery was committed with his connivance.
After he was informed that the horse anal cart
were gone he returned to the coffee-shop knd
finished his tea. The horse and cart without the
24 bags of cochineal were found in Stratford,
Essex. It was also urged against the prisoner
that he ought to have given immediate information
of the robbery at the Leman-street station, a few
yards from the coffee-shop, instead of which he
proceeded to Seething-lane station-house, in the
City.

kr. Hartley said he had offered £25 for the re-
covery of the cochineal and the discovery of the
thieves. The prisoner ought to have driven direct
to Fresh-wharf after he r,ceivecl his load of
cochineal.

Mr. Gomm, for the prisoner, contended there
was not a particle of evidence to su,tain a charge
of felony against the prisoner.

Mr. Benson could not say there was anything
more than neglect to be attributed to the prisoner.
lie did not think any jury would convict the pri-
soner on the evidence before him. He must take
the prisoner's own recognizance to appear oa a fu-
ture day.
