DE BEAUVOIR V. RHODES._

His LORDSHIP wished to know what Mr. Heald had to
say about the application in this case, for an injunction to
stay waste.
Mr. HEALD said the statement was altogether denied.
His LORDSHIP observed that the fact of digging the
gravel and day, the carting of it, the following the carting
of it, the seeing of it sold, delivered and paid for, for pur-
poses altogether unconnected with the purposes of the
lease, were all distinctly sworn to.
Mr. HEALD said, the whole was an invention.
His LORDSHIP.—It's a pure invention then.
Mr. HEALD—Yes, and a more impudent statement never
was made to this Court. . .

HIS LORDSHIP desired to be furnished with affidavits
contradicting what had been sworn to.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.

110W-STREET—(Tuts DAT.)
A poor woman applied to Mr. MlNsuuLt., the sitting Ma-
gistrate, for assistance under tLe following circumstaum :
her little boy had been ran over and seriously hurt by a mail-
cart lut night : he was taken into a surgeon's shop, where
he remained for some time, till he could be taken home. She
understood that they would not admit him into the Hospital,
without an order ; she had three other children to support, awl
was very poor, her husband haring been out of work for some
time.

Mr. MlNsuutr. asked her if she knew the owner of the cart,
but she answered that it drove away without stopping ; he then
ordered an officer to attend her to the hoipital to state the case,
and to procure an admission for the child, and observed, that it
that application was unsuccessful he would order him to be ad-
mitted into the workhouse.

Joseph Williams was charged with stealing a quantity of
.paper, the property of Mr. Lewis Cox, printer, of Queen-street,
Holborn. A great quantity had been stolen, and a strict watch
had beef► kept on all tbo workmen for a long time, to no purpose ;
but the prisoner Was at length deseeted, and-the paper in question
folind concealed on his person. ,An elderly woman who kept a
chandler's shop, wee Mamiee examined, she having admitted
buying some paper 'of the same sort of the'irlioner a Short time
since. She bought it as waste paper, but considerably under its
value.

Mr. Cox, however, contented to withdraw the charge spinal
the latter ; and the prisoner was fully committed for the theft of
that which was found upon him.

HATTON-GARDEN.—(Tuts Da'r.)
♦ respectable tradesman, named jones, appeared before Mr.
Sergeant SELLON, to answer to a complaint of fraudulently de-
taining a bill of exchange for lb/., the property of Mr. John
Higgs, a linen-draper, residing in North-square.
Mr. Higgs said, that on Saturday last he sent the hill in ques-
tion to Mr. Jones, requesting that he would deduct a small account
due to him, and send hint the difference; this was promised to be
done by seven o'clock in the evening, but from that time be had
not been able to get either the bill or the difference. _ .

Here a great deal of recriminatory conversation passed between
the parties, in which Mr. Hammond, the acceptor of the bill,
likewise joined. It was at length interrupted by Mr. Sergeant
SIELLON, who said, it did not appear to him the bill was detained
with any fraudulent intention, though, perhaps, Mr. Jones might
have procured the address of the drawer earlier, it being now Wed-
nesday; yet, as he was expected in town immediately, and the
acceptor was at hand, they had better attend altogether on Satur-
day, when the business might be satisfactorily adjusted.
The parties then withdrew, apparently not in the best humour
with each other.
