POLICE INTELLIGENCE—This Day.

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

SERIOUS CHARGE AGAINST A CAnmArt.—Wm.
Parker Myles, a cab-driver, badge 16,370, was
charged before Mr. Knox as follows :
Police-constable Tyler, 164 C, said that on the
previous evening he was passing along South
Molton-street, when he saw a horse attached to a
Hansom cab going along at a Derby pace,
without any driver being on the box. He
went into the Globe public-house, and asked
the prisoner whether it was his horse and
cab, and he said " Yes. Where are they?" He
told the prisoner that he had seen the horse and cab
going across Hanover-square, and as he noticed
that the prisoner was drunk he took him int) cus-
tody. The prisoner's horse and cab went on till
they were stopped in Regent-street through
coming in collision with another Hansom cab.

Mr. Knox asked whether any one had any com-
plaint to make against the prisoner ?
James Buckingham, cab-driver, badge 15,985,
said that he was going up Regent-street last night
when a horse and cab without a driver came galloping
down the street and caught his cab and broke it all
to pieces. A gentleman he had in his cab was
thrown out, and he (witness) was knocked off the
box.

Mr. Knox asked the witness whether he had any
idea of the amount of damage.
The witness said the mare he was driving would
not be able to work for some time, if it was ever
able to work again, as it was cut all to pieces.
Through the affair he had not been able to take
home his proper money.
Mr. John Gibson, a cab owner, said that about
£3 damage had been done to his cab driven by the
last witness, and his mare injured to the amount of
£25. It was injured in the chest, and he thought
it very likely that it would be obliged to be killed.
Mr. Knox said he could only make an order
against the proprietor under the Act of Parliament
for the sum of £lO, and if he made that order the
proprietor of the damaged cab and horse would not
be able to recover. He would remand the prisoner
for a few days, and in the meantime Mr. Gibson
could satisfy himself as to the amount of his
damage. _ _

A NOTORIOUS THIEF.—Mr. Stevens was charged
before Mr. Knox with stealing a silver lever watch,
of the value of £9, the property of Samuel B. Mill,
of No. 30, Grafton-street, Tottenham-court-road.
The prosecutor was on his way home last night,
and when a few doors from his house the prisoner
and another man pushed against him pur-
posely, his watch and chain were torn from him
and the prisoner and his companion made off, but
the prisoner was stopped and given into custody.
In answer to Mr. Knox, the gaoler (Barnes) said
that the prisoner had several times been con-
victed.

Boden, one of the officers of the court, said that
he had known the prisoner for 12 years. He had
been several times convicted, and belonged to one
of the worst gangs in London.
_ _

Mr. Knox remanded the prisoner for the atten-
dance of Reeves, warder at the House of Cor-
rection.

WESTMINSTER.

ALLEGED DISGRACEFUL COIiDUCT.-A very re-
spectable-looking woman, with a child in her arms,
besought the magistrate to render her some advice
and assistance under the following distressing cir-
cumstances.

The applicant said that she was in great want,
and could not obtain any relief from the parish
without ruining all her prospects in life. She was
the wife of a cab-driver who was at present in the
House of Correction. He had been committed from
this court three weeks ago for a month for some
misconduct and accident resulting from it in the
exercise of his calling. She was of course left
without the means of subsistence, and had to
part with a great many little things to pro-
cure food. Coupled with this and the little
work she was able to do, she contrived to procure
an existence until yesterday, when she applied to
the relieving officer of St. Luke, Chelsea, and told
him that she and her three little children were
without food. Mr. Tubbs, the officer, told her
that he could not give her any out-door relief, but
she could come with her
.children into the work-
house. This was very cruel, for if she had done
so she must break up her little home, and then
when her husband came out there would be no
place for him to come to. She had contrived to
get on for three weeks, and had hoped to do so until
her husband was restored to liberty.
Mr. Selfe said the refusal to give out-door relief
was a cruel one, and ordered the poor creature a suffi-
cient sum from the poor-box for her maintenance
until her husband's release.
