POLICE INTELLIGENCE.

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.
(THIS DAY.)
Edward Poole, a youth of respectable appearance,
about 18 years of age, and Thomas Boman, a sturdy
young countryman, were brought up from Bath, in
custody of the principal Superintendent of the Police
there, the former being charged with stealing a silver-
mounted cut-glass butter-boat, of the value of 121.,
and other property of a miscellaneous description, be-
longing to Mr. Thomas Hulse, of Burlington Arcade,
silversmith and jeweller, and the latter with felo-
niously receiving a portion of the stolen property,
well knowing it to have been unlawfully come by. It
appears that the prisoner Poole was in the prosecutor's
employ as shopman, and on the 9th instant absconded
from his employment. On the following day Mr.
Hulse missed the butter-boat in question, but was
then not aware that any other property was missing.
In the interim the prisoner, it seems, had proceeded
by railroad to Bath, and took up his lodgings at the
Britannia public• house, at Walcott, where he left in
the bands of the landlord, as security for a small
loan, the glass part of the butter-boat, and a valuable
knife and fork, Mr. Hulse's property. On the 15th
inst. (last Tuesday week) 'the prisoner, Roman, en-
tered the 'shop of Mr. Young, of Bath, pawnbroker
and silversmith, and offered a piece Of broken silver for
sale. Suspicion being entertained that he had dishonestly
come into possession of it, he WIIS asked if had any
more pieces, and on his replying that'he had, he was
told to bring all he had got, and they would he pur-
chased of him. He then went away, but quickly re-
turned bringing with him 11 more pieces, which, on
being put together, formed the mountings of the
butter-boat. He was given in charge to the police,
and accounted for the possession of the property by
stating that a young man he had met with in Bath,
but who was gone on by the railroad, had given it
him to sell. This story being unsatisfactory, he was
d'Aained ; and the police having received information
of Mr. Hulse's robbery, the prisoner Poole was ap-
prehended in a public-house at Bath, where he
was accidebtally met with by the landlord of
the Britannia, who had received notice from the po-
lice of the articles left with him by the prisoner having
been stolen. On searching him twenty-one pawn-
brokers' duplicates, relating to the stolen property, and
which had been pledged in London, were found.
. Mr. HARDWICK asked if the prisoner Roman mas
known to the police of Bath ? The Superintendent
said he had been so for many years, as a daring and
convicted thief.
The prisoner Poole said it was no use his saying
anything. The property spoken of all belonged to
his master.
The Superintendent said that Poole was taken into
custody a few minutes after he had enlisted for a sol-
dier.—The prisoners were both fully committed.

MARYLEBONE—(THIS DAY),
George Danger, was charged with assaulting and
putting in bodily fear, his mother,' a respectably
dressed old lady, residing in Shaw s-buildings, St.

Pancras.
It was proved that he came into his mother's house
drunk, and demanded money ; which not receiving, he
took up a large stick, and struck her several times on
the body, then seizing the poker he commenced a
wholesale destruction of everything in the room.
