ces-street, Soho, and was by trade a diamond-setter,
teat he was acquainted with the prisoner; who called
on him on the day specified in tilt. indictment, to ask
him to take a walk, which the witness declined. He '
was then at work finishing a bandeau ; the prisoner
went away, and in about -half an hour after he was
gone, witness missed a link of the bandeau which he
wis at work on. He immediately suspected the pri-
soner,.and on the Tuesday following found the dia-
monds he had lost at the shop of- a Mr. Dobree, a

c. mplied.with this request, and en the Friday follow-
ing the prisoner apprehended, in company with
Mrs. Berresford, at house in Suffolk-street.

terns of intimacy with the prosecutor, and was in the
habit of borrowing money from him ; that he applied

dicted for burglarieusly breaking and entering the
dwelling-bone of Francis Sitwell, Esq. with, intent
to steal. _ _ _

The Prosecutor resides at No. 12, DurWeston-
street, Mary-la7bonne.
James Lamb, the watchman stationed in that neigh-
bourhood, on the night of the 17th of May, stated,
that about twenty minutes after two in the morning
of the ISth, he heard a noise like a crash•at Mr. Sit-
well's door, and, upon going to see what was the
matter, he saw the prisoner, White., coming from it.
tic challenged him, in order to see what he was
about, and ''the .nn off as soon as he had
spoken. He immcif.:tely pursued him through se-
veral streets, and he was tt last stopped by .a.),vatch.
man, who intercepted Mr.) in his flight, in.George's-
street. He never lost sight of him during his flight,
except while he turned the corners of tie streets ; nor
did he see any other person during the pursuit.—
While the prisoner was running, the witness heard
something drop. from him, and, after he had brought
him back, he returned along the line he had before'
gone, and found a knife near the spot, with the name
of White cur in the handle ; and near that, he picked
up a dark-lantern, with a bit of wax-candle in it.—
The man he pursued bad then on a long loose coat,
like a coachman's, and he had no doubt whatever of
his being the prisoner at the bar. He was confirmed
is his testimony by the.watchman who stopped White.
The other prisoner was likewise pursued by. Peter
Flanagan, a watchman, who, upon the first alarm
heing given by Lamb springing his rattle, and cry-
jag, stop tltief!" ran to,vards Mr. Sitwell's, and
feting a man miming, auc:apted to stop him. The
prisoner (Smi..) tip:nett, mad threatened, if he fol.
kwed him further, he would blow his brains out.—
He, however, still pursued him into Portman-square,
where he also was st,ppod by a watchman, and se-
cured. While Flanagan was in pursuit, he heard a
noise, as of iron; fall ; and, upon searching.near the
spot aLerwards he found an iron cruw, and two
s!;e1, ton Lys.
