POLICE INTELLIGENCE'.-THIS DAY.

THAMES.

A FEMALE TICKET-OF-LEAVE CONVlCT.—Eliza-
beth Drummond, a notorious thief, was brought
before Mr. Paget, charged with not fulfilling the
conditions of her license or ticket of leave.

The charge was preferred by Inspector Gee, of
the K division of police, by order of the commis-
sioners. The prisoner has been three times before
Mr. Benson in the course of the last three weeks,
once for robbing a policeman of his watch,
from which she was discharged, and again
for robbing a sailor, on which sh 3 was remanded.
This case was very clear against her, but when she
was brought before Mr. Benson a second time it
was stated that the prosecutor had gone to Liver-
pool. She lived in a notorious brothel, No. 2,
Angel-court, Shadwell, where numerous robberies
had been committed. A woman was committed a
few days since for a robbery in this most infamous
den in -the district. She was sentenced to five
years' penal servitude on the 2d of October, 1864,
for assault and robbery, and previous to that she
was in prison for twelve months for another offence.
Oue of the conditions of her license was that she
should not habitally associate with notoriously bad
characters, such as reputed thieves and prostitutes,
and not lead an idle, dissolute life. Inspector Gee
proved by the evidence of himself and Donald
Mackay, 275 K, that the prisoner had violated both
conditions, and that she associated with the worst
of characters.

he prisoner seemed very penitent. She expressed
her sorrow for what she had done. She promised
to lead a better life in future.

Mr. Paget said that if he sent the prisoner back
to a convict prison she would have to remain in
prison nearly 14 months, which was a long time.
He thought the case ought not to be pressed.
Inspector Gee said the prisoner had been twice
charged with robberies since she had received her
ticket-of-leave.

Mr. Paget—Not before me, and she was dis-
charged on each occasion. lle should remind the
prisoner for a week, and he desired the inspector
to make known his intentions to the Commissioners
of Police.

FIRE AND LOSS OF LIFE.-(7 HIS DAY).

The metropolis was this morning visited by a
serious fire, which was attended by the destruction
of a large amount of property, and unfortunately
accompanied with fatal consequences to one per-
son and the miraculous escape of several others.
About a quarter past 5 o'clock this morning
a police-constable, of the K Division, in
passing along his usual beat, noticed a
body of smoke issuing from the premises belonging
to Mr. F. \\. Oyler, a grocer, situate No. 6, Ker-
bey-street, Poplar. The officer, feeling satisfied
that a fire had commenced in the building set about
arousing the inmates, and, with one exception, they
were enabled, owing to the exertions of the escape-
man and police, to reacla the street, but nearly stifled
with heated smoke. The propriet)r, Mr. Oyler,
who was only 21 years of age, fell a victim to the
flames, and he was burned to death. An abundant
supply of the East Lledon Company's water having
been procured the firemen went to work, but they
were unable to get the flames extinguished until the
premises and their contents were destroyed and the
roof off. The origin of the calamity is unknown.
It is supposed that the property was insured in the
Imperial Fire oah, T.ie boly will remain at the
dead-house until the Coroner's inquest is held.

BALLOON ASCENT.—An interesting journey
dir,ctly across London was made on Monday last by two
of Mr. Coxwell's pupils, viz., Captain \Voodgate and Mr.
F. Norris. The balloon left the Crystal Palace at a quar-
ter to five o'clock, and descended at the Alexandra Park,
Muswellll, at G. 39. The united ascents of the two
voyagers who piloted the balloon amount to nearly a
hundred, all of which have Deoa nude with Mr. Cez well.

A VETV SECT.

A. novel gathering has just been witnessed at
Manheim, in the Lancaster county of the United
States. Some 25,000 persons of a new sect, deno-
minated " Perfect Love, or Entire Sanctification
Religionists," have held a "national camp meeting,"
and the religious interest manifested is said have
amounted at times to a perfect furore. The " perfect
loveists" must not be confounded with the " free love-
ists," whose religion countenances a sensualism worse
than that of the Mormons. " Perfect love," accord-
ing to a New York paper, "is based upon the
principle of doing more unto thy neighbour than
thy neighbour is able to do unto thee—that is, if you
have ten dollars and your neighbour, has not a red cent
split the ten and give him five. It also forbids you
letting your angry passions rise upon any pretence ;
therefore no bald-headed proselyte is allowed to get
vexed in fly time. Mosquitoes and gnats are
considered little blessings in disguise, and the
greater troubles of life are merely put upon you to
prepare you for entire sanctification. If you break
your leg, be :thankful it was not your neck. If your
neighbour cheats yoa out of a thousand dollars,
give thanks that it was not five thousand. If your
house burns dawn, thank Heaven your wife and
children were not consumed in it. If your wife runs
away with your brother in perfect love, shout aloud
" Glory hallelujah !' for that is, indeed, a piece of
good luck which calls for unbounded thanksgiving."
The camp meeting was held ostensibly to elucidate
the doctrines of entire sanctification ; but, if the re-
ports furnished by a writer present are correct, a
more disgusting exhibition of profanity could not
have been enacted. Fanaticism was rampant, and
ignorance revelling in its own delight. Spare us
tln-4 new form of " perfect love !"
