POLICE INTELLIGENCE.

GUILDHALL—(Tans Day. )
Mary Gorman was charged with attempting to carry
spirits into Whitecross-street Prison on Saturday last, at
three o'clock. Her husband is a prisoner there, and the
turnkey having had souse suspicion of her, ludlier searched,
when these was found upon her person two skins, each
containing a pint and a half of spirits, one rum and the
other whiskey. The case was fully proved against the
prisoner.
The prisoner stated that her husband was a very poor
labouring man, confined in Whitecross-street for a trilling
debt he was unable to pay. She had a child to support as
well as herself, and a debtor had asked her to bring in the
spirits to him, for which he would give her a shilling; he
assuring her, at the same time, that if she were detected in
the offence, the Magistrate would only reprimand her, as it
would be the first offence.
Sir PETER LAURIE said the penalty for the offence was,
that the prisoner should pay a fine of not more than 20/.,
and not less than 10/., or be sent to the House of Correc-
tion for three months. Sir Peter well knew that this pri-
son was extremely difficult to manage, much more so than
Newgitte, and the introduction of spirits into it was calcu-
lated greatly to increase the ungovernable conduct of the
prisoners. He found, however, that a brother Magistrate
had committed for the same offence for one month where
the fine was not paid, and, on the present occasion, he
would make a similar order.—Committed.

BOW-STREET—(Vuts DAY.)
James Perry was brought up on a charge of stealing a
horse, the property of Sarah Medley, Friars'-place, Acton.
Samuel Harrington, a'dealer in harness and dead horses,
stated, that the prisoner had offered a blind horse to him
fore sale on Friday night last, at his residence in Padding-
ton, which witness purchased for 21. but on asking for a
reference the prisoner went off without receiving the

money.
The horse in question was identified as the property of
the prosecutrix, and the prisoner was committed for trial.
A person who represented himself as a cotton-spinner by
trade waslrought up for breakfasting in a coffeehouse; and
running away without paying for it. The prisoner stated
that he had no money, and that he was hungry.
The Magistrate reprimanded the officer for taking him
in charge, and discharged the prisoner.

MARYLEBONE.—(Tm!
William Jones was charged on suspicion of having stolen
'mine was-ends. .

James Beadle, of No. I I, Cleieland-strtet, stated, that
at nine o'clock on Saturday evening the prisoner came to
his shop with some wax-ends, which he requested witness
to purchase, and though the latter suspected they were not
honestly obtained, yet he purchased them. Prisoner then
went away, and in a few minutes returned with Vb. of
wax-ends, which he also requested witness to purchase;
but the latter circumstance having increased his suspicion,
he thought it prudent to give him in charge.
The prisoner said that he was a hair-dresser with his
father, but not wishing that the latter should know where
he is, he refused to give his address. Ile was remanded
till Wednesday, in order that the proprietor or the wax-
ends may have an opportimity of coming forward.
There were a greet many charges of diaorderlies and
Petty assaults exhibited at this office to-day, not one of
which possessed the slightest interest.

THAMES POLICE.--(Tats riAy.)
Robert Coney, a person of remarkably genteel exterior,
was placed at the bar upon a variety of charges of swindling.
It appeared that the individual charged had for some
time past occupied ..sope extensive premises in Narrow-
street, Limehouse, and had carried on an apparently ex-
tensive trade under the firm of Robert Coney, junior, and
Co.• wharfingers.
Wm. llainsworth, one of the complainants, stated, that
the person at the bar had, on two or three occasions,
made some purchases of him in his business as a corn-
chandler, the payment of which was punctually attended
to; and from the business-like 'appearance of Coney him-
self, and of the wharf of which he was the reputed pro-
prietor, he should have been willing to have given' him
credit to any reasonable amount. Acting upon this feel-
ing, he, complainant, upon his last visit, unhesitating y

sent bim in teeth and barley to tile litlthrti Of about la
which, however, were to be paid for at a stipulated time,
not far distant from the period of their delivery. On send-
big them home, which he did in his own cart, there *as-
some singularity attending their reception,. which Strongly
excited his suspicions; and those suspicions were material-
ly increased on ascertaining the next morning that soon after
the goods were deposited at the wharf they were conveyed
to a Mr. Ives, a butchet, at Limehouse, to whom Coney
had sold them previously to purchasing them from him.—
Having satisfied himself on this head, he immediately went
to Coney and demanded the money; but his demand was
altogether ineffectual. Hearing, in the course of his in-
quiries, that Coney's father lived at Stratton Grounds,
Westminster, he applied to him on the subject, and, after
considerable difficulty, he 'succeeded in getting 41. from
him, foolishly consenting, at the time of receiving it, to
sign 'a receipt for the whole amount. He made repeated
applications for the remainder of his account, but without
effect, and no course was permitted him- but an application
to this office.

Mr. BALLINTYNE thought that the case did not come
within the jurisdiction of a Police Office.—Discharged ac-
cordingly.

TOWN HALL, SOUTHWARK.—(THIS DAT.)
YOUTHFUL DEPRAVITY.—.TWO boys, apparently not
above twelve years of age, Joseph Whifen and Charles
Elmes, were brought up before the sitting Alderman (J. J.
SMITH, Esq.), charged by Isaac Levi, a broker, with steal-
ing a gun, valued at I/. 75., his property.
On the p►isoners being asked if they had any thing to
say for themselves, Whiffen's mother rushed forward, and
in the most moving terms besought the magistrate to
pardon her son.
The magistrate said that it was entirely out of his power
'to do so; that he must send them to the sessions.

MIDDLESEX ADJOURNED SESSIONS.
(Tins DAY.)

John Williams and Mary Hill were brought up to re-
ceive sentence. They had been convicted of seducing
boy, at a tobacconist's shop, to steal the property of his
employer, which they bought of him at a reduced price.—
They were sentenced to six months' hard labour.
Charles Norhell 'was convicted of a nameless crime, the
particulars of which, for the sake of humanity, we suppress.
He was sentenced to two years' imprisonment.
• John Nathan was indicted for assaulting Wm. Thomas.
The offence took place in July, and arose from a dog be-
longing to the defendant being struck by the prosecutor.
The defendant collared the prosecutor, and took him to a
constable. This was the assault complained of; he was
fined 6s. Bd. Shortly after the defendant's discharge, the
prosecutor appeared before the Chairman and stated, that
the dicer had charged him 17s. 6d. ; I 2s. to the Jury, and
ss. to the crier, as Court fees, although he had got a
verdict.
Mr. CONST remarked that he could not help it ; he had
had the misfortune to obtain a verdict, by which he was
obliged to pay the fees.
Prosecutor—How long shall I be detained if I do not
pay it ?
CHAIRMAN—For ever; and I hope you will make it
public, that all persons may not take up the time of the
Court by frivolous complaints.
The prosecutor observed that it was very hard for a
man to be assaulted, to lose his time, and in trying to get
justice to be punished more than the offender.
Mr. PHILLIPS remarked that it was the price of justice
in this country; but th'e chairman had no power to alter it.
The prosecutor then paid it and retired.
