Lbw AND POLICE.

Mr. Joseph My, charged with one of his old tricks, ap-
peared before Sir Peter Laurie, at the Mansion-house, to
answer for it, but, with his usual dexterity, escaped scot-free.
At Guildhall Michael Magnier, a City policeman, was
brought up for re-examination before Aldermen Challis and
Gibbs, charged with having entered a house on his beat, the
street-door being accidently left unfastened, and assaulted
Emma Moody, a girl about 18 years old, whom he found
sleeping in the parlour. Alderman Challis ordered him to
pay a fine of 51., or be imprisoned for one month.
A man who gave his name George Brown, but whose real
name is May, one of the most notorious dog-stealers in Lon-
don, was charged at Marylebone with stealing a dog, the
owner unknown, and assaulting the police. Mr. Long re-
marked that he wished the owner had been present, but as
he was not, he should deal with the prisoner for the assault.
He felt bound to inflict the highest penalty, viz. 51., or two
months' imprisonment.
At Union-hall William Dawson and John Anderson, two
well-known thieves connected with the Kent. street gang,
were fully committed on a charge of stealing a large quantity

place, Peckham-rye.

dicted for wilfully and maliciously setting fire to certain stacks
and premises, the property of John Hogg, with intent to in-
jure James Smith. He was found guilty.
The Insolvent Debtors' Court was occupied the greater.
part of Thursday with the case of John Lund, against whom
a remand was prayed, on account of certain damages in an
action for trespass and false imprisonment. A great deal of
litigation, of a painful character, had taken place, which it is
not necessary to publish. Mr. ommissioner Nichols thought
that as there was not the slightest malice proved against the
insolvent, there was no case for a remand. He was discharged
forthwith.

IVIXSC ELI4A.N .1-5.4.
The half-yearly meeting of the proprietors of the London
and County Bank was held on Friday, at the establishment
in Lombard-street, and was very nu►ierously attended. The
report was read by the secretary, from which it appeared that,
notwithstanding the depression in the value of money, there
was, after paying all expenses, a profit on the half-year of
3,878/. 6s. Id. In consequence of the great increase of busi-
ness, the Company had made a call of 51. per share, in order
to have a more extended capital. From the balance sheet to
the 29th of June, it appeared. that the paid-up capital was,
125,8001. ; amount due to customers, 1,054,7351. ; and the
gross profits for the half year, 28,943/. 15s. Bd. The report
was adopted, and thanks were voted to the officers of the
Company.
In pursuance of the Act for the Registration of Voters, the
list of householders entitled to vote for Members of Parlia-
ment in the different cities and boroughs throughout Eng-
land and Wales, have been exhibited at the church doors of
every parish. The number of names upon the lists are more
numerous this year than in any since the.passing of the Re-
form Bill. This is owing to the decision of Chief Justice
Tindal, that lodgers paying rent at 101. per annum were
entitled to vote for Members of Parliament. In the Tower
Hamlets, Westminster, and the wards of Cripplegate With-
out, and Farringdon, several hundred lodgers have availed
themselves of this opportunity.
A few nights ago some villians entered the foundry of Mr.
Silas Harris, in the Grove, Southwark, and took two brass
cocks out of the iron liquor vats, and destroyed 4,0001b5.
weight of iron in a liquid state, worth 2001. The work of
destruction is believed to have been done by some of the men
who struck for wages a few weeks ago. A reward of 51. is
offered for the apprehension of the parties.
A letter from Gibraltar Bay states that the operations
against the wreck of the American frigate Missouri are going
on well, and that it was expected that she would be afloat in
two or three weeks from the 21st of July. The work was a
most arduous one, operations having to be conducted under a
burning sun with the thermometer at 125, and in the shade
varying from 95 to 110.
The Chevalier Bunsen, immediately on the receipt of
dispatches from his Government, relative to the atrocious

Majesty and his Royal Highness Prince Albert the intelli-
gence that had reached him.

A COINCIDENCE.—" The dictatorship of NaPtheoef
says the Courrier Francais, "lasted fifteen years. The

has nearly arrived at the fatal moment in which the ywier,
the serpent approaches its gaping mouth. We, 1301011
belive, and we desire to believe, in the continuation %go
