Mr. Almsntai, observed, that the coachman had behaved most
shamefully, in taking Money of such a child.

HATTON GARbEN.--(Tuts Div.)
A few days since, a gentleman who gave hit name, Mr. John
Hewitt, of No. iOl, 6oswell-streei, applied fd the Wang Magis-
trate for his assistance, under the following circumstances :
Mr. Hewitt said, that two days previous he had, adconipanied
by his wife and a few friends, gone au' a party of pleasure to the
Nore, on heti! hha Or Me eiFam paetefs,-leaving the house in
charge of a female servant, of whose honesty they entertained the
highest opinion. On the following day, he was Surprised at
Seeing his wife in a state of the greatest possible agitation, Who; as
soon as she could. sufficiently recover herself, informed him that
during their alisenee,.a sum of MOWy to the amount of 100 sove-
reigns, had been stolen from a drawer in .their bed-rOorn. Not
being aware that any such shin was there deposited, he was at a
less how to ateciiint for the statement made by his wife, who he
was *hood inclined "to suppose was affected by a fiuliporarr alie-
nation of intellect. He, however, was soon put in plowman of
the, secret, whirls: wits rout* this the day of n4ll- mar-
riage, *bleb was neatly three years ago, his wife's father had,
unknown to him, givettlerthe sum above-mentioned, as a pre-
sent for their first child at it. birth.. The money bad been care-
fully put buy in the drawer in question ; but from some appear-
ances of..disorder ou opening 4, Mrs. H. suspected some person
had been at it dining their. once ; and on a further inspection,
the whole of the gold was mis ed, sa well as a swell box in which
it had been, deposited.
Mr. ROcEas said, he was afraid he could not render him any
essential service, as his suspicions were not directed against any
one particularly; he Might, however, take an officer with him if
he pleased, who would examine the state of the house, and
likewise question the girl as to what might have occurred its their
absence.

Edwards accordingly went with Mr. Hewitt, and on 'his return
informed the, magistrate that there was not thealightest appear-
ance of Violence having been used, and the whole btisiness seemed
wrapped in 'Mystery. The servant dented any knowledge of the
circumstance, and protested that no one had been in the room but
herself, while her master and Mistress were alit. He, Edwards,
had searched the eleeping-room and boxes of the woman, but
found nothing criminatory. It was singular, however, that the
key of her bey tltted the drawer in question; but of this she also
denied any previous knowledge.
Things remained in this state until this morning; when Mr. H.
again called at the office, anti after thanking the Magistrate for his
kindness, and acknowledging the service* of Edwards, said the
money had been found quite safe, in a place to which it had been
removed some weeks before by his wife, and which circumstance
had slipped her memory, on the alarm occasioned by the limpet,
sition that the drawer had been opened in her absent+. He had
now, however, taken it into his own charge, and hoped- to be able
to give a better account of ft. .

MARLBOROUGH,STREET.(Titts Dar.)
A Solicitor, who said, that he was engaged for Mr. Deities, at-
tended at this office lett eilning. In alluding to the Case of Mrs.
Parrick being accused of stealing the gold watch (as repotted. in
our Paper of yesterday), he stated that it hail been the iittentibti
of Mr. Deities to prosecute; but some person connected with Mrs.
Parrick had beep to him, and promised that if the prosecution
wan dropped, the watch should be forthcoming. The Magistrate
obseivedt that such conduct was highly iniproper: A ettininons
had been issued for the attendance of ?deb. Deities which would
be requisite for the elucidation of this suspicious affair.

POLICE IIdTELLIGEgCE.
MANSION-HOUSE--(Tuts DAI.)
A dirty-looking Jew came to complain of at night constah/e for
having refused to perform his duty, by receiving in custody at
man who had -committed a breach of the peace.
The complainant said he had been very seriously annoyed by a
low fellow who attacked him, and committed such an assault upon
him as unperson of respectability could pas over. He therefore gave
him in custody. He was a fellow who made it, a practice to
annoy persons of character by abusive language, and by what
he called larking with them, which was a sort of play that low
felloWs might have between themselves, hut they were nut to be
allowed to force it upon others. The night constable, however,
refused to take the charge, or allow him to remain in the watch-
hot-Ise. The complainant assured his Lordship "'pots his ho-
nour," and upon the " word of a gentleman," that the hehavlour
of the night constable was highly imProper.
The Lord illayoa wished to know what was the avocation of
the person by whom he had the honour to be addressed, and who.
used such dignified language.
The complainant said, he re-bound hats for those whe sold
them.

The LORD MAvon reprehended the hat-Milder for his tmpu-
dencet and said, this general assumption of the style and title of
gentility, by persons of the very lowest education and condition,
must be by no means agreeable to those who had more substantiA
claims to the 'honour, and was A sort of caricature upon it sthich
could not be countenaneel). The complainant might be a very
respectable binder of old or new hats, and an holiest man in his
way, but could not be allowed to call himself a gentleman.
The night constable, who Is himself one Of the most digtlitied
of his ordek, on being asked what he had to say in answer to the
charge which he bad treated as beneath his notice, said, in a con-
temptuous tone, "Oh, my Lord, it *as a dirty low abusive vaga-
bond that I did not think proper to receive into my watch-halite.
I don't admit any but Gentlemen, or persons of proper character,
infornly watch-horse." .(Loud laughter.)
The LORD MAYOR said it was really a difficult thing for a
Magistrate to regulate the points of etiquette and dignity *filch
were entertained by some persons. What with the gentlemanly
feelings of the hat-binder, 'and the ideas of the night constable, as
to the sanctity of the place where he presided, the authority of the
magistrate Was placed in a dilemma. His Lordship begged to inform
the constable, that the watch-house was not made exclusively for •
gentlemen, or persons of respectability, though some might be ad-
'pitted there, and admonished him for the future not to keep out
persons of lower rank, lest they should avail themselves of their
privilege of impunity, to the inconvenience of the public.
