bills, headed with a portrait of the prisoner, and
giving a full description of him, were sent
up to London, from Cheltenham, where the ipri-

above amount, and offering 501. for his apprehension,
The police, both Metropolitan and City, were instantly
put on the alert, and after minute inquiries, th y diseT:
vered that the prisoner had fled to the Continent: IL
appears, however, that a few days since he had had the
temerity to return to England, and took up his abode at
No. 55. Harrow-road, and yesterday afternoon, Sergeli,llt
Munday, having received private information of the
curnstance, immediately proceeded thither, and bonne
been successful in capturing the delinquent, he at once
lodged him in the City Compter.

be forthwith conveyed to Cheltenham that his case WV
,
be investigated by the Magistrates of that place.

bourhood, was charged on suspicion of stealing a gr.„
watch and appendages, value 521., the property of s'y
Chevalier Wiercenskie, a Pole, residing at No. 3, Queer

lodged in the same house with the prosecutor, and ab°Ll
three o'clock on the previous afternoon the property is
question was missed from the Chevalier's draw ing-roole,
it having been seen safe but a very short time Pre;
viously, during which period the prisoner was noileT .
to pass up and down stairs by the

such a brutal manner on the preceding night that 6'l;
died shortly afterwards. On making inquiries into tbi,
case it was found that the prisoner and his
who was on the eve of her confinement, had sore°
high words together, which led to a squabble between
them, during which the prisoner gave the unfortunate
woman such a dreadful kick in the lower part of the ab-
domen, as to cause such a haemorrhage that she died t>i
less than ten minutes after the infliction of the injury. ,
