POLICE INTELLIGENCE.

GUILDHALL.—George Hobbs and Thomas Do)
were brought up for retexaminatiou yesterday, before Sit
PETER LAURIE and Alderman ANSLEY, to account for the
possession of a stolen 10/. country Bank-note.
Mr. Edmund Newman, of New Windsor, stated, that
on Sunday se'nnight he put a letter in the post-office al
that place, directed to Messrs. Wiii.ockson and Harding,
looking-glass-makers, in Lombard-street, and containing
10/. and a 5/. mote of Ramsbottom's Windsor bank, par
able at Messrs. Williams's, in town. He recognized the
10/. note now produced as the same. He knelt/ it by hay.
ing written the number of it in the letter, and also en-
dotied his name on the note itself.

Mr. Wilcockson said the letter was delivered, with about
a dozen others, at his counting-house.on Monday morning.
The notes being missed, notice was given to the banker,
and on. Friday afternoon one Moses Benjamin, a dealer in
clothes, residing. in Upper Whitecross-street, was stopped
at Messrs. 'Williams's counter, with the identical 101. note.
He related that two men had been bargaining for clothes to
the amount of nearly 21., and on tendering this 10/. note,
he thought it prudent, to ascertain its value before he gave
change, and had cents away at once to the banking -house.
Having secured Benjamin, Drinkwater, the officer, went
to his house and apprehended these two men, who professed
to be brothers, George Hobbs giving his came as Win.
Davis, and Thomas Day as John Davis:
The prisoners were privately examined before Mr. Al-
derman AxsLxv on Saturday, the first inipression being
that the notes had been stolen from the letter in the Post-
office. John Davis alleged that his brother had picked up
the note in the city on the previons•Monday, and he Had
accompanied him merely to see that he laid it out with
judgment. W. Davis told the same story about the find-
ing, said he found but one note, and denied that he knee,
any thing of a person named John Hobbs, of 22, Sutton-,
street, Clerkenwell, cabinet-maker : he certainly was not S
brother. Now it happened that the said John Hobbs had
heard of his brother's apprehension, was waiting outside,
and being called in, swore positively to his relationship
with the pretended W. Davis. He further stated that he!
(John Hobbs) worked for Messrs. Wileockson, and en!
Monday last sent the prisoner George with some articleei
to them ; and on his return his brother produced the two
Windsor notes, relating that he had picked them up in
'Change-alley. • •
Wilcockson was now completely satisfied, that, to
the prisoner GeOrge had not access to the counting-house
when he brought home the goods, Mr. Harding (who was
out of town) must have dropped the notes in the ware-
house, When the prisoner picked them up.
The prisoners Were therefore discharged with a warning
that they had narrowly escaped a prosecution.
BOW-STREET.—*illiam Power, a private in the;
Life Guard's; and another sniffier, also in the Life Guarder
were yesterday charged with creating a riot in the Strand.
Porter was further charged' with brandishing a naked
sword over the head. of John Thomas, a watchman,-who
interfered to keep the peace.
. ..As.itOon as the watchmen had stated their eharge a Ser-
geant .of tbe!Life Guards stepped forward, and stated, that
as the prisoners were about to undergo a military punish-
ment, for a disobedience of orders,' in being out withoss
leave, he hoped. that they would be given up to him, in
order that they might be dealt with accordingly:

MARLBOROUG 11-STREET, ._On Saturda evening
last, two men, named Henry Case and John Jaynes, were
brouglitto this Office, charged with the, following curios°
robbery,
A gentleman, named Storer, of Mount-street, Grosvenor'
square, had been bathing on Wednesday last in the See'
pentine, and while in the water some person contrived tn,
carry off unobserved his trousers, which contained his gold
watch, chain, and seals, together with some money. Div
thing was heard of the trousers or their contents until Ss;
turday, When a constable, named Lewis, who obtained
some private information on the subject, went to a
twolovf
coffee-shop in Oxford-street, and apprehended the
prisoners, who were sitting there together ; and on search-
ing them, lie found on Jones tyre gold watch and.its appety
doges, but there was then no account of the trousers.
Jones said in his defence, that he picked up the we'll
in the park, and that he knew nothing of the trousers. .
Mr. Storer having identilled.the watch, Jones was cona-
mitted for trial, but Case, against whom there was 0°
evidence, was discharged.

Yesterday, however, he was again placed at the ha►'r
and it appeared that he had gone that day with a letter,
purporting to be written by Jones, and applied for the
trousers left at the coffee-shop.
Sir GEORGE FARRAR; the magistrate, said, that'
since the prisoner's discharge on Saturday, he lost 0°
time in making out a strong ow against himself, and re'
mended him until. Mr. Storer can attend to identify the
trousers.
