POLICE INTELLIGENCE.

BOW-STREET.--Edward Davis, a man who describes him-
self aS I:" dealer in the carpet line," was placed at the bar, before
Sir Bacaiim BIH.IE, yesterday, charged with having picked the
pocket of a Mrs. Wooding, of Prospect .terrace, Gray's-inn-lane.
Duke, an officer, stated, that he knew the priioner to be a no,
torious thief.

The prisoner slid, " it was very bard he should be called a no-
torious thief, when he had'nt been inside a gaol these. four years."
He was committed for trial. _ . _

.....
UNION-HALL.—Yesterday Bond, a beadle of Christchurch
parish, Blaekfriars-road, brought a Chelsea pensioner before R. G.
CHAUDERS, Esq., for causing an obstruction in the footpath, by
selling papers, in which a pretended dialogue was carried on be-
tween a farmer, a butcher, a miller, a publican, a tea-dealer, $
cheesemonger, a milkman, a baker, a brewer, and a church-
warden.
The beadle said that ft vast crowd had assembled round the de-
fendant near the Rev. Rowland Hill's chapel, where he stood of-
fering the dialogue for sale.
Mr. CimfliEßS asked to have one of the papers handed to
him, which was accordingly done. His Worship having perused
it,. observed, that although it was mere trash, yet it was calcu-
lated at the present moment, new the COM Laws were under
discussion, to do no good, as it might cause the ignorant to feel
dissatisfaction.

The defendant was sorry for having caused the pavement to be
obstructed, and, if the Magistrate would pardon him this time, he
would never offend again.
Mr. CH MISERS had the preceding day committed a man to
Brixton, for singing obscene songs in the street ; and (observed
his Worship), on looking through the papers which the beadle
had handed to him, I perceive one here, about a barber and a
publican, not of a very moral tendency. I promise you (con-
cluded the Magistrate) that if you are again brought here with
suchlike productions, I shall be under the necessity of sending you
to the tread-wheel.

The defendant promised that he would not, and was discharged.
