BOW-STREET..--A poor man, na med Tregear, caws
yesterday to this office, to complain of a robbery being ef-
fected at his residence, at No. 3, Los -4-acre, on Sunday
last, by means of which he was depriv ed of his chance of
providing for a wife and family. The poor fellow told a
long story to the magistrate, that he ‘"Ad passed several
years in America, to provide for the we Its of his family,
and, returning to England, a few monthi ago, in the hops
of bettering Ilia condition, some kind frie ad purchased for
him, to sell again, a small stock of hats, he baying ',den
reared to the business of a hatter, with w Bich he set up a
shop in Long-acre, and expected by induct ty to realize an
independence. On Sunday night, howeve s, some villains
broke open his shop, and succeeded in can Ting away the
entire of his stock in trade, leaving him liter ally without a
penny, or the means of procuring one.
The magistrates immediately directed an oil rer to attend
to the statement of the poor man, and, if po tsible, devise
some plan for the recovery of his property.
MA B. YLEB ONE. —Two respectable look tlg femalod,
of the namse of Fulcher and Cross, sisters (a) '‘d the first
of them stated by her husband to be needy six y years of
age), were brought up in the custody of John a
Bow-street patrol, on a charge of having stolen a ralf's skin
from the door of Mr. Glenester, butcher, of Bros 'n-street,
Paddington, who had received it from another butcher,
named Ilule, of Kilburn, for the purpose of Navin, it con-
veyed for sale to Leadenhall-market.
The defence of the prisoners was, that the akin ws a found
lying in the passage of Mrs. l'eleher's Louse, a id that
fearful she might come into truable by it, she i etched
her sister, Crow, to carry it away, and throw t into
the Park, in order that ehe might not be brough itito
trouble by it.
Mr. Ressmixsott said that this story could not be ad-

milted, as they might, bad their motive been what was
stated, have easily got rid of it by throwing it out of di )ors,
or rather by telling the circumstance, and trying to find' the
owner. Here was a felony committed, and the prop_ rty
found in their possession, and it must he left to a Jury to
judge of the probability of what they asserted. He bed
alternative but to commit them for trial.
Cross was afterwards allowed to find bail. Two or three
of her daughters attended her into Court, and wept very
mach.

Two youths, Milieus, Rutland and Thomas Edwards,
were charged, on the oath of Henry Day, with having
stolen, from Mr. Fitllarton's stable, of Upper George-street,
two dottble-reined bridles, two stirrep-irons, a saddle, and
two girths.
The deponent was a poor man, who was in the habit of
fetching the wash front the prosecutor's yard for pigs,
While so engaged, ha saw the prisoners, after a number of
manceusres, enter the premises, and take away the property
mentioned.

In the drawers of the room where Rutland (the younger)
lodged, the officer fituuti three skeleton keys, and a great
number of duplicates. lie was taken in bed with two
proltitutes.
When asked if they had any thing to say, Rutland
merely answered, that he was not at the plane on the more-
ing mentioned ; the other declined speaking. Both believed
with a great deal of levity, more ptuliuularly the younger.
A charge, of which it would be disgusting to give the
details, was made by Weatherley, one of the serjeants of
the watch under the Commissioners of Woods and Forests,
against John Jackson, a soldier of the 2d Life Guard Re-
giment. The offence, which had not proceeded so far
bethre detraction, as to effect the life of the prisousr, was
stated to have taken place near the end of Chester-terrace,
Regent's Park, a new street, trot yet lighted, and partly
shaded by a plantation on each aide of it. The wretch
him escaped over the park pales, and has not bc,?ri taken.
He was described to have had the appearanee of a gentle
man. The soldier wore his regimentals, and lost his cap'
in the struggle with the officer, which was produced iv
Court with his name in it. A letter from the Adjutant t,
the Magistratee, stated that the eireurnstance had transpired
and that be had been discharged, in consequence, from hie
regiment.
He offered no satisfactory account, and was told that le:
would be tally committed for trial.
