he was carrying to a salesman named Salter, at Newgate.market.
Brown then took him to the watch•house, and, found that the
basket contained the forequarters of a sheep, a hatchet, knife,
&c., and in the prisoner's pockets were the half a sheep's head i
and the liver. The constable having secured Gurney in the
watch-housev then went in pursuit of Smith, and his basket was
found to contain the hind quarters of the sheep, and his pockets
the sheep's lights. Being asked where he was going to Curry
his load to, he said he did not know.
At their first - examination, Gurney said that Mr. Salter, a
salesman, met him at a very early hour, and asked him to
carry the meat tit Newgate.market, appointing to meet him',
there at eight o'clock.
Shortly after that examination, it was ascertained that on
Tuesday night, or Wednesday morning, two sheep had been
stolen from a field at Holloway, belonging to Mr. Coleman, a
salesman ; and that the robbers, having killed them on the
spot, had skinned and carried off the carcases, leaving the skins
behind.
Mr. Coleman and a man in his employ were 'in attendance
on Saturday, and identified the skins, which were produced.
The sheep s carcase, tbund in the prisoner's possession, being
fitted into one of the skins, corresponded precisely in every
part.
Mr. Coleman's man deposed that he saw the sheep safe in the
field at six o'clock on Tuesday evening. The following morn-
ing, at eight o'clock, he missed-them, and about an hour after-
wards he discovered the skins in a ditch where the robbers had
thrown them. _ _ _

The prisoners were fully committed for trial.
HonSE STEALINO.—Joseph Ludlow, alias Taylor, who
has been several times examined on charges of horse-stealing,
was re-examined on Saturday, on suspicion of having been con-
cerned In stealing four horses from Air. Batten, of Brickwall,
Hertfordshire,in March 1112.5,a robbery for which a man named
Harpur was executed at the same time as Probert. The pri-
soner is supposed to have been with Harpur at the commission
of the robbery.
He was remaned for further examination on Friday next.
Three men, named Doughty, Purdy, and Walker, were
fully committed for trial, for a robbery committed on Saturday
' se'nnlght in the most daring manner.
It appeared that, at eleven o'clock that forenoon, the waggon
of Alessrs. lictoth and Co., the distillers, while standing at the
door of a public house in Old-street, St. Luke's, was beset by
four fellows, one of whom entered it, and deliberately placed a
10 gallon cask of gin on the head of his companion Doughty,
who was prepared with a knot to receive it. A person who
saw the transaction gave the alarm, when Doughty and Purdy
were taken. The other prisoner was afterwards apprehended
and identified as one of the gang.
