MIDDLESEX SESSIONS, Sept. 30.
George Brown, 24, was indicted for having stolen
a handkerchief, value 2s. 6d., the property of Mr.
George Hart, from his person.
The prosecutor stated that on the 23d inst. he was
walking in the Strand, and observed two men fol-
lowing him. Shortly afterwards be felt a tug at his
pocket, and immediately missed his handkerchief.
He turned round, and then saw the prisoner putting
the handkerchief under his coat, upon which he
seized him and gave him into custody. The prisoner
begged as a favour that he (the prosecutor) would
" punch his head and let him go ;" but this he re-
fused to do, and the handkerchief was found in his
possession.

The prisoner, in his defence, said, as he was pas-
sing along, a man coining in an opposite direction
threw the handkerchief at him, and that it stuck in
the flip of his coat, but that he was entirely innocent
of the robbery.
The Learned Junos said he would leave the pro-
bability of this defence entirely in the hands of the
Jury

The jury immediately returned a verdict of Guilty.
Tne Learned JUDGE—WeII, Mr. Brown, I believe
that I have seen you before ? Prisoner—Yes, I was
found guilty of stealing a teacaddy.
The Learned JUDGE—And I suppose you were as
innocent then as you are now ? Prisoner—Why, no,
I can't say that, but I am innocent now, at any rate.
The Learned JUDGE—I shall now commit you for
eight months' imprisonment, and to be kept to hard
labour • and you will understand the next time you
come here you will be transported.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.
BOW-STREET.
A middle-aged man named Edward Cooke, who
has been about fourteen years employed as a letter-
carrier in the General Post-offi:e, was placed at the
bar before Mr. Jardine, charged with stealing a letter
containing a marked half-sovereign, the property of
the Postmaster- General.

Mr. Peacock, solicitor to the Post-office, conducted
the prosecution.
Mr. Walter R. Sculthorpe, a president of the Lon-
don district, stated, that in consequence of complaints
being made recently of cash letters being missed from
the Tottenham post-office, which had not reached
their destination, he wrote the letter produced on Sa-
turday last, at a quarter-past two o'clock, addressed
" Mary Anne England, Terrace, near Clifton Baths,
Margate, Kent," enclosing a half-sovereign, which be
marked in the presence of Mr. Cole, inspector of
letter carriers, and gave to Peake, the officer, with
instructions, in obedience to which it would have
reached Tottenham North-office at seven o'clock, and
would, in the regular course, have been sent to the
principal office at Tottenham, where it would have
arrived about twenty minutes before ten o'clock for
the dispatch bag to London. Witness stopped the
mail bag at Stamford-hill, and took out the Totten-
ham and London bag, in which the letter ought to
have been, and, having examined it at the post-office
of that place, he could not find it, in consequence of
which he went to the principal office at Tottenham,
where he met the prisoner at 35 minutes past 10
o'clock, coming out with the letters for delivery, and
being asked if he had not cut open the North-office
bag, he replied "No, but it was Bower, another letter-
carrier," and admitted having assisted in sorting the
letters. Witness told bum that a letter had been mis-
sing, for which he should be searched, and upon Peake
proceeding to do so, he took the identical letter from
the left-hand pocket of his official coat, upon which
witness inquired how he accounted for the possession
of it, and he replied that he was not aware of baying
it in his pocket.
The prisoner said he did not know of the letter
being in his pocket, and he never saw it until it was
taken out by the officer.
He was committed to Newgate for trial.

CHARGE OF ASSAULT.—Theodore Staines, a tall
young man, whose upper lip was covered with mou-
stache, and who was described on the police-sheet as
the editor of the Weekly Times newspaper, was placed
at the bar, charged with assaulting Robert George, a
carpenter, and ulso constable 98 F in the execution of
his duty.
_ _

It appeared from the evidence that the complainant
George was walking home along Long-acre, about
eleven o'clock, when the prisoner, who was much in-
toxicated, struck him a violent blow with the huge
walking-stick produced on the head, which stunned
him, and the constable who happened to come up at
the moment-, having apprehended him while in con-
versation with a girl of the town, he not only as-
saulted him with the same stick, but kicked him
severely on the way to the station.
The prisoner said he was quite unconscious of
basing acted in the manner described, and hoped that
his colleagues of the press, as he termed the reporters,
would not give publicity to the nature of the charge.
Mr. JARDINE said that drunkenness was one of the
worst excuses that could be made for such miscon-
duct, and ordered him to pay a fine of 30s. or fourteen
days for the first assault, and for striking the con-
stable seven daya' imprisonment without the option of
paying a fine.

CLERKENWELL.
William Steadman, William Jones, and George
Newman, respectably-dressed young men, were placed
at the bar, charged by Mr. Archer, of No. 2, Green
Arbour-buildings' Moorfields, with having conspired
to defraud him of 91.
It appeared, from the evidence of the prosecutor,
that on Saturday, between twelve and one o'clock, be
was accosted by the prisoner Steadman, whom he had
known for many years, and after some conversation
Jones made his appearance, and said he was inti-
mately acquainted with witness's father, and in-
vited him to have something to drink. They pro-
ceeded to a house in the City-road, where they saw the
prisoner Newman standing before the bar drinking
brandy-and-water, who also claimed acquaintanceship
with witness's father, and, rattling some sovereigns
in his pocket, said that a rich old aunt had left him
a considerable sum of money, and there was nothing
like sticking to brandy-and-water, and advised wit-
ness to have some. He then asked Jones to pay for
'some. Jones refused, saying he would have no ob-
jection to play at " knock 'em downs," and they went
to a public-house near Goswell-street, when it was
proposed to play for a bottle of wine and a sovereign
and Jones asked him to go ten shillings with him,
which he consented to do, and he lost. They sub.-
' sequently went to other public-houses, where skittles
were introduced, and they induced witness to pledge
his watch and lose money to the amount of 91. and
upwards, and he agreed to meet them again and play
for 20/. ; and feeling satisfied that he had been duped,
by the prisoners, he consulted with Sergeant Harvey,
14 G, who, with Reeve and Hawkins, 424 K and 191
G, took the prisoners into custody.
Harvey and the other officers identified the pri-
soners as skittle sharps.
They were ordered to put in their own recogni-
zances in 1001. each to appear on a future day to
answer the charge.
Eliza Slater, aged 55, was placed at the bar before
Mr. Combe, charged in the police-sheet with having

ttempted to commit suicide, by throwing herself into
the New River.

Sergeant Judd, 44 N., said that when the prisoner
was brought to the station-hour: she stated that a
fellow named Richard Grady, who lodged in the same
house, No. 1, Fox-place, Kingsland, had violated her ;
and he (Judd) had taken him into custody.
The fellow was now placed at the bar, and Mrs.
Slitter was sworn. The particulars as stated by her
are of a nature not to be detailed ; suffice it to say,
that the prisoner was seeking after a situation in the
police force, and on Saturday night last he proposed
his services to protect the prosecutrix on a vi-it to
her sister, and on passing over a d Ark field the pri-
soner threw her down and accomplished his object,
when she plunged into the river, but she was saved.
The prisoner denied the charge, saying that the
prosecutrix entered several public-houses on the road,
was drunk, and led him across the field, which she
said was the shortest way to her sister's house.
The prosecutrix did not deny having drank ruin at
several public-houses with the prisoner.
Mr. COMM had no doubt that Mrs. Slater was
drunk at the time, and he discharg.d the prisoner.
SOUTHWARK.

John Williams, who described himself as a wool
broker, was brought before Mr. A'Beckett charged
with committing a violent assault on Mr. John North-
age, under the following circumstances : -
The complainant, an aged man, who exhibited in-
juries of a severe nature about the face, stated that he
had recently come to London on business connected
with the preservation of life from shipwreck, and
having dined with some of the patrons of his invention
he admitted having exceeded the bounds of modera-
tion on the occasion. When he left the tavern where
they dined, and got into the fresh air, the wine he
had drank operattd still more powerfully upon bins,
and the result was he was taken to the station-house
at the rear of this court. He, however, had not been
long locked up when the defendant, a tall athletic
man, made an attack upon bias without the slightest
provocation, knocked him down, and afterwards
jumped upon his breast, and injured him so severely
that he had been spitting blood ever since. He called
out for help, under the supposition that his assailant
wanted to murder him, and he really believed that it
was his intention to put an end to his existence if as-
sistance had not been rendered.

It was here explained that the defendant had been
taken into custody in High-street for attacking ano-
ther man, whom he knocked down twice, and, as in
the former case, he had received no provocation to
justify such outrageous conduct.
The defendant asserted that he was first assaulted in
the cell by the complainant, and admitted having re
taliated upon him on that account. This assertion,
however, was contradicted by a man who was locked
up in the same cell.
The Magistrate inflicted two penalties of 3/. each on
the defendant, and in default of payment committed
him for three months.

Mr. James Watkins, the landlord of the Old Red
Lion public-house, Pearl-row, Blackfriarit -road,
appeared to answer a charge under the Police Act, for
unlawfully harbouring convicted thieves and bad
characters in his house, after being duly cautioned by
the police.
Sergeant Barry, of the A division, said he went
into the defendant's house a few nights ago, and seeing
a number of persons of bad character be told the
landlord, and pointed out those parties who had been
convicted, requesing him to remove them. On his
return to the same house about two hours afterwards
several of the parties were still standing at the bar,
when witness pointed them out again to the landlord,
who said that they were having refreshment, and he
could not turn them out.

Mr. Hobler, on behalf of the defendant, contended
that he was greatly persecuted by the police. He
kept a house in a neighbourhood where such charac-
ters resided, and he could not help their using it. He
locked up the tap-room and parlour, so that they
should not have a place to sit down in, and the only
place where they could have their refreshment was at
the bar. On the evening in question the parties were
having refreshments when the officers called in, and
Mr. Watkins told them to make haste out of his
house. They all left a few minutes afterwards, and
some time after some of them returned, and had more
refreshment. He therefore contended that the sum-
mons must be dismissed.

The MAGISTRATE (Mr. Bingham) said he was of
that opinion, and therefore he should dismiss the
summons.

THAMES.

David Davidson, a seaman, was brought before Mr.
Yardley, charged with smuggling.
A Custom-house officer, named Mears, stated that
he overhauled the chests and hammocks of Davidson
and a shipmate, as they were about to pass out of tht,
West India Dock, on Saturday afternoon, and
found among their things three pounds and three-
qu trters of cigars and tobacco. The share that fell
to Davidson was a pound and a half only ; and the
officer said that all the cigars taken from him vt ere of
foreign manufacture, and that the sailors offered him
some money to release them, and look over the affair,
which he refused to do.

Davidson said a portion of the cigars were made in
Newcastle-upon• Tyne, and came on board a ship be
had just left at that place ; the rest he brought from
Dantzic. They were for his own smoking, and the
remains of his sea stock, lie sent for gin, and the
witness and another officer drank some of it with him
and his shipmate.

Mears admitted he partook of some gin with the
sailors.

Mr. YARDLEY said it was very improper for him
to do so, and asked him if he was sure the tobacco
was of foreign manufacture? Mears said he believed
so, and that his superior officer told him it was
foreign.

Mi. YARDLEY—That is not evidence. I can't hear
what your superior officer said to you. He should
have come here himself. I can't have his opinion
second hand.

Davidson said he had just finished one voyage in
the Christian Charlotte, and was going to join another
ship called the Mary Ano, outward bound for the
Baltic, and that he intended to take the remains of his
sea stock of cigars and tobacco on board the Mary
Ann, which was to have sailed on Sunday morning.
He and his shipmate had no intention to sell or give
away the tobacco.

Mears was recalled, and said the sailors did mention
to him that they were going direct to a brig which he
understood was bound to the north.

Mr. YARDLEY—You should have stated that be-
fore, and not kept back anything.
Mr. Philip Dodds, the master of the Christian
Charlotte, confirmed the statement of Davidson in
every particular, and said the Mary Ann was detained
for the two seamen.

Davidson said that the Custom-house officer on
board the Christian Charlotte had passed the tobacco
and cigars, and said he might take them on board the
Mary Ann.

Mr. YARDLET—You may go ; you are discharged.
Bring the other seaman forward.
John Read wad put to the bar, and
Mears said he found 21; lb. tobacco and cigars in
the sailor's chest.

Mr. YARDLEY believed that neither of the seamen
intended any fraud on the revenue, and he gave cre-
dence to their statement that they intended to convey
the tobacco to the ship which they had engaged to go
in on a voyage to the Baltic. Perhaps they had un-
knowingly violated the Customs regulations, but under
the circumstances he should not fine either of them.
Mears (loudly)—They had no right to bring the
tobacco out of the docks at all, and are liable to
penalties.

Mr. YARDLEY—I have decided this case, and don't
intend that you shall review my decision, or any
one else.

Mears asked what he was to do with the tobacco.
Mr. YARDLEY said the officer must use his own
dis-
cretion. He thought that every revenue officer who
seized contraband tobacco knew shat to do with it.

IRELAND.
DUBLIN, Sam 30—It is said that negotiations are
in progress between the new Solicitor-General sal
one of the representatives of a midland county,
touching the acceptance of the Chiltern Hundreds by
the latter. Mr. Hughes has considerable personal,
political, and family influence in the county in
question, and if a vacancy should arise, or be
conveniently created, his election would be by no
means improbable.

TUE TENANT LEAGUE.
" The Thanes are flying" from the councils of the
Tenant League. The difficulties and dangers to
which we have more than once alluded have seriously
alarmed the more prudent, and perhaps less enthu-
siastic members of the council, and, accordingly, we
find that several of the original promoters of the asso-
ciation have announced their intention of withdraw-
ing. Among those may be mentioned J. M. Cant-
well, Esq., solicitor, and the Messrs. Grey, of the
Freeman's Journal.

TIIE SEA SERPENT AGAIN.
A Caherciveen correspondent of the Tralee. Chronicle
says----" This monster, after his cruise along the coasts
of Cork and Limerick, has re-appeared off our shores.
On Monday last, Morgan Rshilly, who holds part of
Deenish, or the small Hog Island, from the Honour-
able Member for Tralee, while at work, perceived
something floating in the sound between the two Hog
islands (Scariff and Deenish), which he at first took
to be a balk of timber ; taking his boat, and provided
with a hawser and an axe, he pulled towards it. On
approaching, he saw the monster elevate its head, and
perceived that one of its eyes was bleeding and
damaged doubtless by the shots fired at the
monster when rubbing himself against the Bancle
rocks, as mentioned in the Cork papers. Rahilly
made for the shore, and landed safely, the ser-
pent following him but slowly. Apparently the
strange visitor found the sharp rocks of Deenish
rather uncomfortable, for he tacked close to the reef,

and in so doing some six fathoms of his tail protruded
on shore. Rahilly got a bowling hitch of the hawser
round the tail, and securing the other end round
rock, proceeded .to dock the monster with the axe.
The agonies and struggles of the serpent during the
attack are described as terrific; but the " indomitable
Celt " persevered, and finally succeeded in cutting off
about three fathoms of the tail. The serpent, released
by the mutilation, made the best of his way to sea ;
and when seen last was standing to the north-west,
roving at the rate of about ten knots an hour, leav-
ing his tail as a trophy of victory to the tenant of
O'Connell. It is said that Rshilly will procure at
least a couple of hogsheads of oil from the amputated
portion, and an experienced fish-curer has pro-
nounced the quality to he equal to the best sperma-
ceti oil. Tile bore is said to resemble ivory, and the
scales are described as larger than oyster shells, and
with a lustre approaching mother of pearl."

raorosED JUACTION OP AROILMOLOGICAL SOCIr
TIES.— We can scarcely believe that the advertisement wbicb has been issued by the Committee of the archaeological I°,l
stitute, offering what they call " reasonable encouragement
to the members of the association to join their body, can be
meant us a serious response to the well-intentioned and verif
praiseworthy resolution passed at the Manchester meeting °
the Archreological Association, recommending the Council 1°
take steps to promote a junction of the two bodies. VI
object desired by this resolution, moved by the President
the Cheetham Society, and seconded by, we believe, a mein:
ber of the Ardmological Institute, the Bishop of Mancheste',
being in the chair, is sufficiently important to the cause o',
archreilogy to call for some earnest endeavour on the part 01
the Council of the Institute to meet it, and to enlist in it!
favour every unprejudiced member of that body, and ever./
earnest friend to antiquation researches and archaeological
knowledge. The advertisement in
question must surely has', been issued under some misapprehension, and should best
once repudiated by the members of the Institute. —Builder.
BURIAL IN A COPPER LODE —Captain Thomas
Gundry, who was well known as a copper miner, gave direc-
tions before his decease, which lately took place, that his re;
mains should be deposited on a copper-lode, which he state,'
ran through the church-yard of the parish of Perranuthnoe.
The sexton, it appears, found the identical spot, and dug al
grave upon the copper-lode extending thence from Wiles
Trebarvah mine. Devonport Independent.
