A young man, ei the .lewish persuasion, named Sanders, ap-
lred with his bail before Mr. Due, to answer a chugs preferred
by James Waltho, one of the footmen of Prince Esterharf, for
stealing 4901. his property, under the following singular circum.
stances s—lmist Thursday week the prosecutor proceeded to the
Bank, where he sold out stock to the above amount, and received in
return four hundred-pound notes, one fifty, a seventy, and two tens.
Upon his return home, finding that he was wanted, he proceeded to
his room, which is situated over the stables belonging to Chandos
House,when he took the money from his pockets, and for safety placed
it in an old shoe. In the course of an hour he returned to his room,
entirely forgetting where he bad left his mcney,and he afterwards pro.
ceeded to the stable. While he was standing there a Jew.boy came up
and offered charter some mugs for old clotheswith one of the servants.
The mugs being very showy, they took the fancy of Waltho, who told
the dealer in old clothes not to sell them all, for he would give biro
some old shoes for a set of the mugs, with which he would make
his for ;he accordingly went up stairs and brought down a
r=of shoes, amongst which was the one containing 4901.; a
was made, and the Jew went away with his fortune.--
Shortly after he was gene, Weida recollected his money, and be
discovered that what be had said in a joke was fully verified.. In-
formation was instantly given at this office, and two of the officers
were immediately set to work, and on the following Saturday even-
ing they took Sanders into custody; but although they made the
mast active inquiries respecting the money, they could gain no in-
formation. It was at length proposed, that Waltho should speak

turday be attended.
Upon being before Mr. DIM', Sanders Mends spoke
of the p under which the youth was placed, for they were
ready to prove that he neverwent out in his life with mugs, or any

tan awed Mow tan was plaid 'at the bar been Mr.

BROUGHTOW for examination, on the capital charge of violating
the person of Elizabeth Lloyd, a child under ten years of age ; and
Sarah Reed, a girl of 15 or 16, was charged as an &misery. The
prisoner was taken into custody by police constable Hallington for
an assault upon the child on Friday night, but it appeared from the
statement of the mother, that on Monday last, in consequence of
certain circumstances, he questioned the child, and learned from her
that the prisoner had violated her person. The child being ques.
tinned as to the nature and obligation of an oath, which she satis.
fectorily explained, gave evidence to the following effect :—.0311 the
Monday, she said, Saran Reed asked her to go and talk a walk to
" Lamb-field," a lone place near the Dog-row, Betlinal-green, and
were followed by the prisoner, who talked to her, and when they got
to the lone place, " chocked" her upon the ground.—(The child
then stated what took place, and from her description of it, the
capital offence was supposed to have been completed.)
Mr. BROUGHTON asked her where Sarah Reed was during
this time ?
From the child's statement it appeared that Sarah stood close by.
and encouraged the child, and that, after the prisonet's quitting the
latter, liberties of a similar nature passed between him and Sarah.
A surgeon, who examined the child, proved that she had sus.
tabled violence, and he found some traces of disease, but he could
not say that the violation had been completed.
The prisoner denied the charge, and said that the father and
mother had declared that the child was not hurt, and had signed 3
Tto that effect.
he mother being strictly questioned upon the point by the Ma.
gistrate, said that the prisoner and his friends pleaded so hard that
she had been induced to sign such a paper, and she confessed also
that she had actually received ten sovereigns from the prisoner.
Mr. Baonowrost strongly censured her proceedings, and said
he was determined that a prosecution should take place.—The man
was remanded for the rape, and Sarah Reed as accessary.
LAMBETH-STREET,

DARING HIGHWAY ROBlERY.—Ckarles Brightly, a youn„o
man who described himself a journeyman printer, out of employ.
went, was charged with committing a highway robbery. Charles
Frewer, a sailor, stated that between nine and ten o'clock the pre,
lions night, as he was passing along Wellclose-square, he was sud•
denly seised by the prisoner and another man, who struck him tea
severe blows on the head, and one of them gave his watch ribbon a
violent pull, which broke, and the seal, keys, and a portion of the
watch ribbon, remained in the hands of the thief. Witness made
a powerful resistance, and gave an alarm, when two men came to
his assistance. On their approach a violent scuffle ensued, and one
of the robbers succeeded in effecting his escape. But witness
grasped the prisoner firmly, and a police constable coming up, gave
him into custody. On searching the spot where the scuffle occurred,
they found the property which had been stolen from witness. Pren.
dergast, the officer, in reply to Mr. Walker, said that the prisoner
had been in custody at this office some months since, on suspicion
of having been concerned in a burglary in Ratcliffe Highway.
The prisoner was committed to the House of Correction for three
months, for being in the streets with the intention of committing fe-
lonies.
