ward Gifford and Sarah Ann Hunt, two persons living together
in Warwick-street, were brought up for felaniousl: receiving
the sto!en property, which, it was said, amounted to at least
1,000!. One case was proved against them, when the pities
were bound over to prosecti-e, and the prisoners were remanded

John Thomp3nn, said to be a large earthenware manufac-
turer at Ashby-de-la-Zouch, was brought before the Alagi-
strates, at the Uxbridge Petty Sessions, charged with pre-
senting what appeared to be a pistol at a young lady, named
Bloomfield, whereby she became greatly alarmed. The offence
was committed at the Drayton station, on the Great Western
Railway. On the pistol being examined, it turned out to be
only an imitation of a pistol, made of earthenware. The pri-
saner pleaded intoxication ; Miss Bloomfield did not appear,
and the Magistrates, therefore, fined the silly fellow 405., under
the Railway Act.
Robert Lindsay Crawford, claimant to the peerage of Ciaw-
ford Lindsay and Garroek, in Scotland, was brought before
