OLD BAILEY.

Yesterday John Wainwright was in idea for break-
ing and entering the house of Mr. M'Gennie, at Pim-
lico, on the 13th ult. with intent to steal. The prose.
tutor keeps a silversmith's shop ; and, on the above
evening, he went up stairs, and, on his return, he ob.
served a hole in one of the panes of glass ; and, whilst
turning a lamp, he saw a man's hand in action, on
some silver spoons, He immediately ran out, and
the prisoner ran off, but he followed, and never lat
sight of him until he secured him. There was no
other person near the shop at the time. The prisoner
was searched, but no propery was found on him, ncr
any sort of cutting instrument. The plate stolen
amounted to Je2 16s. ; and although the prosecutor
did not see the prisoner divest himself of any thing
whilst pursued, yet Gilmore, an officer of Queen.
square, proved that he had confessed the crime.—
Four persons gave the prisoner an excellent character
for honesty.—Guilty, Death.
The Judge reprobated the vnduct of John John-
son, who had spoken highly of the prisoner's charac-
ter, he having been before in custody. a
and. was re-
cently under sentence of transportation for similar
offence.
