POLICE REP( ItTS.

Bow-STlEZT.—Churles l'arker, a young nun in the
garb of a sailor, was c'targed with having stolen a gold watch,
two gold chains, and a gold cross set with rubies and ewe.
raids, the property of Mr. Rowland, watchmaker and jewel-
ler, No. 9, Coventry.street, Haymarket.
It appeared that, about three o'clock on the 7th of May,
the prisoner called at Mr. Rowland's shop, and asked to a
some articles of jewellery. He selected the articles in ques-
doe, which were, he said, a present to his wife, who was
but made it a condition, that if they did not suit, the money
was to be returned. This being agreed to, the prisoner went
away, and shortly after returned in a hackney-coach, in which
Mr. Rowland's son accompanied hint to No. 103, Jermyn.
street, where he said he lived. They went upstairs to the first
floor, and the piisoner obtained the ariieles from Mr. Row-
land's son, under pretence of chewing them to his wife in the
newt room. It is needless to say that both the goods and
the prisoner disappeared, and nothing was heard of the pri.
loner until yesterday, when he was met near Temple-bar by
Edward Davis, Mr. Rowland's boy, who instantly gave hi .a
into the custody of a policeman.
, A servant girl from the house in Jermyn-street, stated that
the prisoner had called there to look at the lodgings for his
brother, in the early part of the day ; when he Galled again,
she supposed 51r. Rowland's son was his brother.
Sir RICIIMID Biawsz remanded the prisoner for further
vitamin 'don.

POISON.—On Tuesday night last, Mary Anne
Roye went to the house of Mr. Leeson, Chiswell-
street, after having poisoned herself with oxalic
said, and complained of excruciating pain over the
region of the stomach. The stomach-pump was
instantly had recourse to, as follows :—the head
being thrown backwards, so as to bring the mouth
in a right line with the opening into the stomach,
the tube of the instrument was then let down with
great facility, and without producing that irritation
which it generally does, unless this position be at-
tended to. A gallon of warm water was now throwu
in, after which it began to overflow the stomach,
and return at the mouth. The injecting being con-
tinued, till about two gallons was made to pass into
and out of the stdmach, in the space of a few se-
conds, without removing the tube. The water,
which at first was strongly impregnated with the,
poison, now became tasteleilk la consequence of
which the operation was discontinued. By this
plan of treatment, the woman has done well.

The population of the parish of Southminstcr is 1421,

A match was played on Tuesday last, between the
Norwich City Club and the Norfolk County Club. The
Norwich went in first. Five wickets were put down with-
out a run, and the whole side scored only 35 notches.—
The betting was at that time five to two on the county.
Norfolk County Club succeeded in scoring 68 runs against
the bowling of William and Fuller Pilch, exhibiting some
fine hitting as well as steady and cautious play. The
second innings of the Norwich side was commenced on
Tuesday evening, and two wickets were put down for 15
notches. This terminated the first day's play. On Wed-
nesday morning, about an hour elapsed before another
wicket was got, and then Fuller Pilch took the bat,
Bentley remaining in with him. The playing for about
two hours was splendid, and must have delighted even
those best acquainted with the game. The score of this
innings amounted to 142. Before 50 had been scored, 2
to 1 on Norwich. The county players were thus set 109
to tie, which they did not succeed in getting, although
they displayed some very determined batting. They never-
thelese made a good innings, viz. 72, and kept the game
alive te the very last.
Paxton AloirtEnvass.—A complaint was made by the
overseer of Chelmsford against the overseer of Widford at
the Sessions, for attempting to burthen the former parish
with a man and his wife. The elan, it appeared, was tra-
veiling along the road, and his wife, who was near her ac-
couchement, was taken ill at Widford, in consequence of
which they called upon the overseer. The overseer gave
them two shillings, and pointed out to them the nearest path
to Chelmsford, where the woman was put to bed, and be-
come chargeable to the parish. The Bench told the overseer
that he must proceed by indictment against the officer of
IVidford, which he said he certainly should do.
Paaia APPRENTICEII.—A rule was lately obtained in
the Court of King's Bench, calling upon Mr. Mills and Mr.
Ceurteney, two Magistrates of this County, to show cause
whether they had any valid ground of objection to allow poor
boys, belonging to parishes in Suffolk, to be bound appren-
tices to fishermen, residing in Essex. On Wednesday Mr.
Campbell showed cause against the rule. After a short ar.
gument, Lord Tentettlen said that it appeared to him, under
the sfl Geo. 111. that Justices of Phe County, into which it
is proposed to bind parish apprentices, have a general discre-
tion to decide whether the binding shall or shall not take
place. If that discretion applied to a particular matter, the
Court might interpose; but here they had a general discre.
tion to exercise, and the Coutt could not interfere. Rule
discharged with costs.
Nl'ennington races, which usually take place in June,
will rot be held there this season. It is reported that Wor-
ley common, nearly Brentwood, will be substituted as the
race-ground in the ensuing month, and from the admirable
opportunities of forming, at a trifling expense, a most ex-
cellent course upon this delightful spot, the site would prove
most eligible.

An inquisition was taken on the 30th ult. at Lackford,
Bury St. Edmund's on view of the body of J. Woodcock.
The deceased, who was a labourer in the employ of Mr.
Musket., was leading a bull, the property of his master,
from one stall into another, when the animal ran at him,
and after knocking him down, repeatedly thrust its head
upon his chest. The bull wart known to be vicious, and
lad made time attacks upon his driven as he was return-
ing home. The deceased had been cautioned not to take
hold of the chain, as the ringle to which it was fastened had
only been put into the bull's nose the day before the acct.
shot ; but he persisted, and on falling to the ground retained
the chain in his hand, and thereby dragged the bull upon
hint. The deceased survived the accident about half an
Friday there was a good supply of Engli.h Wheat, but
