POLICE INTELLIGENCE.
SOUTHWARK

Yesterday Richard Walshc, a lad of 17 years of
age, was brought before Mr. A'Beckett, charged
with stealing a parcel, containing women's clothes.
In his attempt to escape he threw himself into the
river, and a policeman in effecting his capture jumped
in after him, and both were near being drowned.
Policeman Parrott, 196 L, stated that between
three and four o'clock on Sunday' morning, while on
duty in Stamford-street, Blackfriars-road, his atten-
tion was arrested on observing the prisoner clamber-
ing over the railings of the area of No. 32, in that
street, with a large bundle. The prisoner jumped
down from the top of the railings to the pavement,
and on seeing him (the policeman) approach
he threw down the bundle and ran down one of
the turnings leading to the river. He was pur-
sued by the policeman, and when he got
near the water side he leaped on a barge and threw
himself off into the river and began to strike out
towards the landing-place near the bridge. The
policeman, however, finding that the prisoner was
likely to escape jumped into the water after him and
soon came up with him, but both of them being nearly
exhausted, owing to their clothes being saturated with
water, they would have sunk probably had not a
Thames galley happened to pass :and assisted both
out of the river, when the prisoner was taken to the
station-house. Upon subsequent inquiry it was as-
certained that the bundle of clothes seen in the pri-
soner's possession belonged to the family residing at
No. 32, Stamford-street, and had been thrown down
the area on Saturday night by the person who had
them to wash, under the supposition that they would
be seen by the servants and taken into the house on
the:following morning. Instead, however, of this latter
expectation being verified, the prisoner, who hap-
pened to be out early on the prowl before the servants
were up, caught sight of the bundle as it lay in the
area, and getting over the railings he soon possessed
himself of it, and was making off with it when he
was seen by the policeman and taken into custody as
above described.

Mr. A' BECKETT said he should remand the prisoner
until Thursday, in order that some inquiry should be
made about him.

LAMBETH.
Yesterday being appointed for the final examination
of Mr. Henry Page, a master bricklayer, and Mary
Clarke, for bigamy, the court was crowded to suffo-
cation by persons anxious to hear the evidence in this
extraordinary case.
The male prisoner, it may be recollected, was given
into custody on the 17th of last month for administer-
ing poison to the female prisoner, to whom he was
married. During the inquiries of the officer he as-
certained that both the prisoners were previously
married, and that the former husband and wife were
then living. As soon as the female was sufficiently
recovered he apprehended her, and both were re•
manded until that day for the depositions against
them to be taken. The female prisoner admitted in
the presence of the constable that she was married to
a man named Clarke, and that he was living; she also
stated that Page administered some drug to her in
some drink, in a coffee-house near NewingtonChurch.
Mr. Solomon, the solicitor, was in attendance to
watch the proceedings on behalf of Page.
Evidence having been given with respect to the
double marriages on each side, which satisfied the
magistrate that there was a sufficient case to go to
a jury,

Ali.-ELLiorr said he should commit them both for
trial.

Mr. Solomon asked for his client to be admitted to
bail, as his Worship had intimated that he would on
the last occasion. '

Mr. ELLIOTT—I have no objection to admit him to
bail, himself in 801. and two sureties of 401. each; but
twenty-four hours' notice thereof must be given to
the clerkF.

The prisoners were then fully committed for trial,
and all the witnesses bound over to prosecute at the
next sessions of the Central Criminal Court.
