POLICE INTELLIGENCE.

A man, named juno Thontp,on, was brought before
the Lord Mayor, charged with having defrauded Mr.
Dubock, the landlord of the Coach and Horses public-
house in Petticoat-lane, of some silver and a meal of
victuals, &c. The prisoner was supposed to be a ship-
carpenter.
It appeared from the statement of the publican, who
gave a very droll and animated account of the affair, that
the prisoner called at his house and asked whether he
had kept it thirteen years ago. The answer was that
the person who carried on the business at that time was
gathered to his fathers, and would no more be seen. " I
am sorry for that," said the prisoner, " for I lodged in this
house thirteeen years ago, and better treatment I never
received any where, so that its recollections make me
wish to lodge here again." He then asked witness to
board and lodge him, and said that fifteen shillings a
week was the sum he used to pay on the former occa-
sion. Witness, although unused to the entertainment
of strangers with bed and board, consented, and the pri-
soner sat down to his first meal in the house, and
then requested that the witness would provide
him a trustworthy porter, and accompany him to the
India docks, in order that his chest of carpenter's tools,
and other property, might be fetched from thence in
safety. On their way the prisoner said he had to call
upon his captain, in Prescott-street, about his wages, and
he and witness, and the porter, went into a public-house
in the neighbourhood, to make arrangements. The pri-
soner in a short time went over to a house in which he
said the captain lived, and knocked at the door, being
watched by the witness and the porter, who began to
suspect that all was not right with him. After making,
as was afterwards ascertained, some ineffectual inquiry
at the house, he walked on further, and at last disappeared,
and witness and the porter began to condole with each
other upon being made victims. They, however, deter-
mined to remain in the public-house for some time, and
after a short delay, in walked the prisoner. " It's all
right," said he, " I shall receive my wages from the cap-
tain presently, and I want you t 6 lend me
4s. 6d. to give to the servants." Witness handed him the
4s. 6d. but no longer let him out of sight ; and he soon
learned that the fellow had been home to witness's wife,
immediately after he was missed, and endeavoured to do
her out of Ils. 6d., upon the pretext that her husband
wanted to pay the dock fees upon the tools. A po-
liceman was then employed to take care of the inge-
nious fellow, who would certainly have succeeded if he
had not had rather clever people to deal with.
A man named Richardson stated that he was in Mr.
Dubock's housein Petticoat-lane when the prisoner ea-
tered in a hurry, and asked Mrs. Dubock for 11s. 6d.
for her husband, who wanted to pay fees at the dock.
Witness, upon being called by her, who suspected that
the prisoner was not a bit better than a thief, re-
fused to let him have the money, dogged the prisoner,
and came up just after the prosecutor had lent him the
4s. 6d.
The.LORD MAYOR—Why, Mr. Thompson, this was well
done of you. You have been long practising this work ?
Prisoner—No, my Lord. I meant nothing bad, and
I am ready to pay the gentleman the money I borrowed
from him.
The LORD MAYOR—You mean the money you swin-
dled him out of. Pray who are you? Prisoner—l am a
poor Swede, and I came to London five days ago from
Valparaiso.
The LORD. MAYOR—In what vessel? Prisoner—ln the
Nereid.
The LORD MAYOR—There is no such ship from Valpa-
raiso to my knowledge. I happen to have some know-
ledge of shipping, and I have no doubt you are an impostor.
Mr. Dubock said that his object in bringing the pri-
soner before the Lord Mayor was to render service to the
public. The fellow, he said, told his wife when he tried
to rob her, that the captain and her husband were enjoy-
iug themselves at a tavern. The prisoner was remanded.
GUILDHALL.

Mr. Alderman GIB)387011alWi his seat upon the
Bench, said he beged to correct an erroneous statement
which appeared in several of the morning newspapers. It
had been stated that Mr; Alderman Copeland, when
committing some destitute persons to prison, had said that
upwards of 6,000 casual paupers had been relieved within
the last twelvemonths in the London Union. He (Mr.
Alderman Gibbs) regretted to say that the destitution
prevailing in the City of London, both amongst the per-
manent residents and those who came into it, either seek-
ing work or from other causes, far exceeded that number,
for he could state upon authority, that the casual paupers
relieved in the London Union within the last QUARTER
amounted to no less than 10,000 persons.
BOW-STREET.
William 'Esworthy was brought up for examination
charged with having defrauded Lord Stanley, the Colo-
nial Secretary.
Emma Norman, a servant at the Colonial-office, in
Downing-street, deposed that on the evening of the 27th
of December, between seven and eight o'clock, the pri-
soner came to the office with a large parcel covered with
matting, which he said was a handsome chandelier, a
present to Lord Stanley, and that the servants must be
extremely careful in handling it. He said he had brought
it from the docks, that there was 3/. ss. 4d. to pay, and
that he would write a receipt. He then asked for a pen.
which was given him, and witness went away to get the
money. He said something about wine, but she did not
recollect distinctly what it was.
Eliza Maling, also a servant at the Colonial-offic,
deposed that on the same evening her fellow-servant
(the last witness) came to her in the kitchen, stating
that there was a man waiting for the payment of a par-
cel for Lord Stanley, upon which she aentup and saw
the prisoner-standing at the desk in the hall, writing. She
told him Dodsworth, the office keeper, was out, but if
he would wait, he would be back in a few minutes. He
said he would, and she remained with him till Dods-
worth came in a few minutes afterwards, when she
told him, in the prisoner's presence, that he had brought
a box from Mr. Stewart Mackenzie, Governor of
the lonian Islands, for L )rd Stanley, and that it ( ane
to 3/. ss. 4d. Dodsworth, finding that he hart not the
money, went out to get change, and came back in a
few minutes. While Dodsworth was absent she con-
versed with the prisoner, who wrote on the paper, which
he intended for the receipt, 35 cases, 8 bales, and two
letters, S. L. He remarked that there were 72 bottles in
each case. Dodsworth returned in about five or ten mi-
nutes, and she went down stairs. There was a light in
the hall while she remained with the prisoner.
Thomas Dodsworth, officer and store-keeper at the
Colonial-office, was next examined. He remembered
that on returning home on the evening of the 27th of
December, that a man was standing in the hall
of the office, who said there was a present for Lord
Stanley, and that there was 34 ss. 4d. to pay. Wit-
ness asked him if it had been opened, and he replied
"Yes, it's all right." and showed him a paper with
the name Grantside upon it, and also the name of
Mr. Stewart Mackenzie, via Malta. From the pro-
duction of that paper, and another, apparently a printed
receipt of the Custom-house, he was led to believe that
the box came from the Custom-house. Finding he had
not enough money he went out to his butcher's. Hav-
ing the loan of 2/. he came back and paid the man the
3/. ss. 4d. He would not swear it was the prisoner. He
received a receipt. [The receipt was produced.] The
witness Dodsworth gave the box the next day to Ed-
ward Bleaden, by whom it was taken to Lord Stanley's
residence, No. 8, St. James's-square, where it was
opened by George Willis, his Lordship's butler, and
found to contain nothing but stones and straw.
The box was produced and identified, both by the
witness and Dodsworth, who said that he had paid for
some hundreds of things in the same way, and never be-
fore had any fraud.
Gough, a policeman of the A division, deposed to hav-
ing searched the prisoner's lodgings in Rose-court,
Tower-street, City. The prisoner bore but an indiffe-
rent character in the neighbourhood.
Daniel Miller, a clerk in the Receiver General's office
in the Custom-house, deposed that the receipt given by
the prisoner, and marked Grantside, was one of the
printed forms used in the Custom-house in the treasury
only, but never given to any person out of the Custom-
house, nor for sums under 151. The receipt produced
was a fictitious document. According to the practice of
the Custom-house, on a parcel arriving for Lord Stanley,
notice would be sent to his Lordship, and if no Treasury
warrant was forwarded for its delivery, as being for the
national service, the duties would have to be paid, and
all charges before its removal, the same as any other
article which came there.

The prisoner, in his defence, said he could call seve-
ral witnesses to prove he was in the City at the hour it
was alleged he was in Downing-street, and wrote down
their names and addresses; but, on being called, none' f
them answered except the prisoner's brother-in-law; who,
on being asked if he could identify the prisoner's ?hand-
writing, said he could write six or seven different hands,
but on looking at the receipt given to Dodsworth, he
thought it was the writing of the prisoner. The witness
was going on to say that the prisoner once sent him with
a similar parcel, for which he was tried at the Old Bailey
and nearly transported, When he was stopped by the Ma-

gist rate.
The prisoner then said that he was charged with hav-
ing received 31. ss. 4d. Dodsworth would not swear that
he was the man to whom. he paid it, and the two female
witnesses would not say that they saw it paid, and he
did not see that, under these circumstances, there was
any case against him.
Mr. JARDINE said he would leave the decision of that
question with another tribunal, and ordered the prisoner
to enter into his own recognisance in the sum of 1001.,
and two sureties in the sum of 501. each, to answer the
charge at the next session of the Central Criminal Court
and to give forty-eight hours' notice of bail. ,
The prisoner was then fully committed.

SURREY SESSIONS.
DanielDonaghtte was indicted for stealing a copper, or
brewing utensil, value 41, the property of Joseph Rams-
dale, from the Borough-market, on the 30th Dec. last.
Policeman 207, saw the prisoner in Duke-street,
London-bridge, at six o'clock in the evening of the 30th
December last with the copper on his back. He asked
witness if he was in the right direction for Abbot-street,
Dcckhead. Witness said yes, but inquired where he
was going with the copper ; he said he was carrying it
for his master, Mr. Pontifex, to the place he had named.
Witness asked why he had come so far round;; he said
he did not know the other way. Witness followed him,
on seeing which the prisoner asked if he was going to
see that it was all right ; he went on to Abbot-street
when he stopped at the door of a marine-store-ke.per,
where he went in. Witness followed, and the woman
who was in the house denied any knowledge of the
copper ; he therefore took the prisoner and the copper
to the station-house, where it was identified by Mr.
Ramsdale as his property.
Mr. Ramsdale said the copper was his, and was safe in
a loft in the Borough-market, a few days before the one
in question. On receiving information of the loss of the
copper, he went there and found that the place had been
broken open, and the article carried away. He believed
he had sometimes employed the prisoner to do little jobs
for him, but Diver to carry the copper.

Policeman No. 89 said, when taken into eust,,,i,. the

, f)l.P.,red 1:1111.
him to Mr. Pontilex's, where the copper was standing
on the pavement, and told him to take it and carry it to
Dockhead.

The prisoner, in his defence, repeated the same story.
The man told him to carry it to the shop where he
stopped, and he was to be there.
The Jury, after a short consultation, returned a ver-
dict of Not Guilty.
Solomon, Isaac, and Joshua Fullett, stood indicted for
stealing a clock, a bed, a variety of bed-clothes, and a
warming-pan, at the parish of Newdigate, on the 31st
October, the property of a farmer named Butcher, who
resided in the same locality.
Mr. Feast, the constable at Horsham, having taken
Isaac into custody for the robbery while at work in the
fields, his wife and father came up to him weeping, and
imploring him to speak the truth. He said nothing
until they had walked three miles, when he commenced
to confess. Witness did not want to hear him, but he
persisted in giving a detail of the circumstances. He said
his brother Solomon incited him to the deed, and that
all the three brothers assisted in it. He took him before
the Magistrate at Croydon, when, having repeated his
statement, he was committed; and warrants were granted
for the apprehension of the other brothers. They were
taken before a Magistrate at Dorking, and committed.
None of the property was found upon their premises.
All the things were found at the house of Isaac.

Mr. Holdfast, the Constable of Riegate, proved another
confession on the part of Isaac, made while they were
waiting to go before the Magistrate in that town.
The prosecutor identified the property. The prisoner
Solomon had resided in his house at Newdigate for 12
months previous to Michaelmas last. He (the witness)
had two houses, the one in question he generally let out
to parties, reserving a part of it for himself. The goods
were in the house after Solomon left, at least on the day
he did so.

The confession was made before the Magistrates b.
three prisoners.

Mr. Walhnger addressed the Jury for the prisoners
Solomon and Joshua, and Mr. Striven for Isaac.

The CHAIRMAN shortly summed up, and the Jury,
after a short consultation, and not being likely to agree,
on the suggestion of the Chairman, retired. After
being out for two hours they came in and returned a ver-
dictof Guilty against all the prisoners, but recommended
them to the mercy of the Court, but more especially
Joshua and Solomon. whom they believed to have been
led into the crime by Isaac. .
The Court then sentenced Isaac Fullett to imprison-
ment for six months and hard labour in Brixton ; the
other two to be imprisoned 21 days, solitary confinement.

BRENTFORD PETTY SESSIONS'
Oa Wednesday Mr. Charles Butler, the landlord of the
George public-house, Isleworth, appeared before the
Rev. 1)r. Walmesley, Henry Pownall, B. J. Armstrong,
and Thomas Twining, Esqs., to answer an information
laid against him, under the Police Act, by Inspector
Macquard, of the T division of police, for opening his
house before one o'clOelt on the afternoon of Christmas
day last.

Mr. Butler pleaded not guilty.
Sergeant John Poole, 1' 12, deposed that twenty mi-
nutes before one o'clock on the morning of Christmas
clay, while on duty in the parish of Isleworth. and pas- -
ing the George public-house, kept by the defendant, his
attention was attracted by hearing a number of persons,
he believed men, singing in the defendant's house, and
joining in chorus. While listening outside, he saw a
woman come out of the defendant's house with a can con-
taining beer. About a quarter of an hour afterwards he
saw a woman enter the defendant's house, and come out
with some rum in a measure.

John Cussam, T 157, bore similar testimony, and cor-
roborated the evidence of Sergeant Poole.
The defendant, in answer to the charge, contended
that the information must be dismissed, inasmuch as
although lie admitted that the persons had left the house,
as had been represented, yet they were a private party,
and not persons who came there for refreshment subse-
quent to the appointed hour for closing. Although he
had kept the above house for 15 years, he had never
before been summoned before the Magistrates, and he
appealed to the police to bear him out in stating that his
house was invariably closed at twelve o'clock, and he de-
clared that on the night in question, after ten o'clock,
but two persons had visited the house, with the exception
of the party he had before spoken of, and those two had
quitted long before twelve o'clock.

Poole was recalled by Mr. POWNALL, and in answer to
questions put to hint he stated that when he passed the
house, about half-past 12 on the night in question, it was
then hut up, and he admitted that the persons he had
seen quitting the house seemed to be private guests.
Mr. Butler then stated that, having received instruc-
tions from Messrs. J. W. and C. Parnell, the brewers of
Isleworth, to provide on the night of Christmas-eve a,
supper of old English fare for thirty-five of their men,
for which they would pay, he considered he was acting
as every hotel and tavern keeper would have acted on the
occasion, by allowing the party to remain until they
broke up. That entertainment was annually given by
Messrs. Farnell, but each year at different houses, and
having been assured that, when it took place on the pre-
vious year, at the London ApprentiCe, a policeman, at
one o'clock in the morning, came up into the room, and
having ascertained that it was a private party, left with-
out anything further being heard of the matter, he
thought he could act in the same manner.
The Bench said they did not consider the case proved,
as the persons whom the police had seen come out were
admitted by the witnesses to have had the appearance of
being private guests. The summons must, therefore,
be dismissed.

MORNING SUN

TTIE ATROCIOUS MURI)FR OF
A IN T.
(From the Dublin Evening Post.)
We copy the following from the Mail of last night :--
" The Evening Post and other journalists have asked,
and very naturally, what is the Government about ? we
have asked the same question ourselves, and we ese
positively state, that up to Saturday night, no intelli-
gence had reached the Executive of any such outrage
as that stated having been committed. Had such bee°
the case, and a refusal to take such steps as were cal'
culated to bring the perpetrators of this terrible out°
rage to justice, on the part of the Government, they,
would have disentitled themselves to the support an:
good opinion of every well-thinking man in the kingdom.
And is it in regard to the " firm and impartial Go-
vernment of Lord De Grey"—that Government whoss
vigorous action was to extirpate every vestige of crime
in the land—that the admission is made, of its total
helplessness and utter incapacity, to arrive even at tiro
knowledge of a crime having been committed, as atrocious
as any that has ever disgraced the character of man ?
Weeks have elapsed since this most fiendish murder
was perpetrated, within forty-seven miles of the seat of
Government, and now, when foreigners are expressing
their disbelief of the crime, because of its terrible atm'
city, the organ of the Government is instructed to de'
elate, that "no intelligence had reached the Executive
of any such outrage." We arc thus driven to adopt the
alternative of the Mail, that " the Government have
disentitled themselves to the support and good opinino
of every well-thinking man in the Kingdom."
Sir James Graham, as the Secretary of the Horne
Department, is entrusted with the supervision of the
Executive at Dublin Castle. And Sir James goes
down to Darehester, and lauds the Government of Lord

De Grey, as "firm, impartial, and vigorous." Here
e I is a specimen of its vigour, exhibited to the world by its
own organ !
The Magistrates of the King's County rendered
themselves very notorious in assailing Lord Normanby,
and they have an especial horror of the StipendiatY
Magistrates. No wonder
We must aglinst repeat that this fiendish murder of
the idiot was committed by " gentlemen."
