MIDDLESEX SESSIONS.

_ - -
John Sullivan, labourer, was indicted with stealing
18 cheeses, the property of Messrs. Swan and Sons, of
Cambridge.
It appeared from the evidence of William Harker,
the guard of the Cambridge waggon, that he saw the
prisoner and two other men following the waggon
about two o'clock on the morning of the 28th ult.,
in the Whitechapel-road, and that shortly afterwards
he missed the box containing the cheeses from the
rack of the waggon, and the prisoner and the other
men were also gone. The prisoner was afterwards
stopped by a policeman in Montague-street, White-
chapel road, in company with two other men, one of
whom had the box of cheeses on his shoulder, but who
decamped immediately upon seeing the policeman.
Several witnesses, amongst whom was one of the
jury, gave the prisoner a good character.
The Jury found the prisoner guilty, but strongly '
recommended him to mercy, and the Court sentenced
him to two months' imprisonment in the House of
Correction, two weeks of the time to be passed in so-
litary confinement.
Two or three other cases of trivial importance were
disposed of, and the Court concluded its labours about
four o'clock.

POLICE .INTELLIGENCE,
(YESTERDAY.)
TrOIiSHIP-S TREE T.

John Henry Aliorgan, who stood charged with
having uttered several forged cheques upon the
Bloomsbury branch of the London and Westminster
Bank was placed at the bar for final examination.
A fresh charge was now preferred against him of
having stolen a horse and gig, the property of Mr.
T. Croft, a livery-stable keeper in Whitechapel-road.
The prosecutor stated that on the 10th of August
last the prisoner called at his place of business, and
hired a horse and gig, which he promised to return in
a few days. On the Wednesday following the horse
and gig were brought back by a man who represented
himself as the prisoner's servant, and who handed to
witness a letter from the prisoner, stating that he
required a better horse, gig, and harness, and that he
would hire them for eight days. Witness accord-
ingly dispatched one of his men with a horse and gig
of a superior description to the former, which were
delivered to the prisoner, but neither of them had
been returned.

Mr. James Shippey), the proprietor ofl ivery-stables,
in Cowper-street, City-road, deposed that on the 10th
or 11th ult., the prisoner, of whom he had some slight
previous knowledge, drove a horse and gig into his
yard, and requested him to advance the sum of 151.
upon them. Witness declined lending the money, and
the prisoner went away, but he called again and re-
newed his application two days after, and witness was
induced to lend him 121. on the horse and gig, which
were now in his possession.
Mr BROUGUTON said that he considered a clear case
of felony had been made out against the prisoner, and
he should commit hjin upon it.
Isaac Morgan, the father of the prisoner in the last
case, was fully committed upon a charge of having
utter, l a forged cheque for 121. upon the London and
Westminster Bank.
