CLERKENWELL.-(THIS DAY.)

Jane Brown was charged with being an accomplice in
robbing Mr. Coop, of No. I, Sandwich•street, Burton-
crescent, of a pocket-book and 81.
The prisoner met the prosecutor returning home to
his family, and he was accompanying her to a public-
house when she suddenly attacked him, and six men
started from a dark passage and struck him with great
violence. They rifled his pockets of their contents. The
men escaped, but the woman was arrested.—Remanded.

LAMBETH.—(THIS DAY.)
Augusta Hamilton, who represented herself as the
idow of an officer, was charged with robbing her
ready-furnished lodgings.
Mrs. Rayner, of No. 1, Mason-street, Walworth,
stated that the prisoner came to reside at her house a
short time ago ; the prisoner was then dressed in a very
genteel manner, and seemed lady-like in her appearance.
She stated that she could give no reference, as she had
just come from the country, and that she was the widow
of an officer in the army, was highly connected, and that
her boxes and luggage would arrive on the following
morning. The prisoner, on obtaining possession of the
lodgings, commenced pledging every thing she could
lay ber hands on.
Richard Davis, P 55, stated that he found a quantity
of duplicates in the possession of the prisoner, some of
which related to the missing property of the prosecu-
trix. The officer informed the magistrate that the pri-
soner was well known, and had already been tried at the
Surrey sessions, and received six months' imprisonment.
The prisoner made a long statement, and said she was
the widow of a midshipman, and had come up from
Hastings.
Mr. HENRY said it was a very bad case, and he should
send the prisoner to the Criminal Court for trial.
Remanded for a week.

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.
(THIS DAY.)
James Thomas was charged on suspicion of stealing
four silver table-spoons, Itwo silver forks, and two silver
tea-spoons, from the house of Mr. Matthew Vantein,
of No. 3, Hanover-street, Hanover-square, tailor.
It appeared that the prisoner had been in the service
of Mr. Vantein as errand-boy, and quitted it about nine
months since. He was, however, in the habit of calling
at the house to see his fellow .servants, and on Monday
evening last was there, and left but a few minutes pre-
vious to the robbery being discovered. No doubt could be
entertained but that it had been done by some person
well acquainted with the premises, and suspicion, in con-
sequence, fell upon the prisoner, who last evening was
given into custody ; but, on searching him, and also his
lodgings, nothing was found to inculpate him with the
.robbery.
Mr. MALTBY said he did not think, in the present
stage of the case, that the evidence was sufficient to
warrant the detention of the prisoner, but Mr. Vantein
would have the assistance of the police in tracing out the
property.—The prisoner was, of course, liberated.
