WORSHIP-STREET.

aura or RORULL-It may be recollected that last year up-
wards of forty burglaties were committed within three months,
in Stoke Newington and its neighbaurhood, when a man named
Jeffs, supposed to be the leader of the gang, was apprehended for
a burglary, and afterwards transported for seven years. For
some time the detection of their chief seemed to suspend the
activity of these depredators, but during the last few months
I they have resumed their guilty labours, and have become more
desperate. In consequence of some information Vano, the offi-
cer, bad received, he and Mance went on Saturday, the 23d of
August, and apprehended a man named John Crisp, at No. 5,
Church-row, St. Luke's, and searched the house, in which they
found all sorts of wearing-apparel and linen, and some of it
with marks, and also Ladiese dresses, which left no doubt of the
property being stolen. The property was immediately adver-
tised, and Crisp was remanded tin last Saturday, when Mrs.
Wyatt, of Hornsey, and one at her female domestics, attended,
'and proved that on the 2d of July the dwelling-house was broken
into, and property to a large amount was stoled, amongst which
were a number of things now produced by the officers.
James West, the servant of Mr. Wyatt, of Newington-green,
also proved that his master's house was broken into on the 27th
June last, and a robbery committed; and he identified several
of the articles produced.
This witness, looking at the prisoner at the bar, observed that
he then had Go his neck a checked muslin handkerchief, very
like one which was stolen, and on its being.taken oft he identi-
fied It as his own.

The prisoner, who is a very stout and determined character
ii
here looked lercely et the witness, an said In a low one,
give you one in a minute," and to prevent his striking the wit;
nets, even in the presence of the. Magistrate, the officer Waters
was pined between them.

MS. Tarrant, of Newington-given, also appeared,'and proved
that his house was broken into on the 7th July-last, and that it
was secured when the family went to bed. The robbers had
forced a closet-door and stolen plate and other property, amongst
which were a watch, and about 50 children's frocks. In the pri-
soner's house the officers found several of the (rocks, and a du-
plicate which led to the production of the watch, which was im-
mediately recognized by Mr. Tarrant. -
Mr. TIVT/01111 considered the evidence sufficient to send the
prisoner for trial in two eases, for stealing 40s. hi the dwelling-
house, and In the last case for a burglary continitted in the night:
The prisoner was again placed at the bar *ith three meni
named IteMenger, Street, and Coe, and' also Welnttos already
charged with a burglary in the City-road, and supposed to be-
long to the same gang. At Cox's house, at Enfield, Mance found
a pocket-handkerchief stolen from Mr. Wcatt's, at liorniey.
Mr. Garton and Attfield took Bellenger and Street at a woman's
house in town, where they found some handsome glass-ware,
which Bellenger said he found; but his daughter, a little girl,
said, if she must speak the truth, it was brought to her father's
by Welman.—All the prisoners were then remanded for further
inquiry. In going out of the office, Street said he would hrst
have his dinner, and immediately commenced an attack upon
the officers, and had he not been overpowered, he would have
fought his way out of doors.

THAMES POLICE.
W. Cosi: was re-examined, charged with having 1561b5. of
fine tea in his possession, which he was suspected of having
smuggled; but it subsequently appearing that there was reason
to imagine that he had obtained it in a felonious way, he was
committed for trial. _

Mary Cross was charged with robbing a seaman of a sovereign
and 6d. Jack was cruising in Rateliff Highway, when he
met the pirate, whom he requested to convoy him into harbour
for the night. She escorted hint to her own moorings, whet.: he
Instantly turned in, having first removed the property from his
pockets to his hat ; but soon after be had cast anchor, the enemy
appeared, plundered him of his property, and sheered off. lle
soon after applied to head-quarters, where a cruizer was sent
after her, soon returned With her in tow, anji she waa conunitted
to safe quarters.

FRRNCH DUELS.—The 22d inst. about noon, two
duels, io consequence of a dispute in a cabaret, took place bi-
tween horse gendarmes stationed at Caen. Two of them were
slightly wounded, a third severely, and the fourth, named Gots,
remained dead on the place.
A WATEaspou e.—A few days ago, a brig, coal-
laden, was towed into Brighton roadstead, by a
schooner, with the loss of a mast and a man, who
went overboard with it, and was unfortunately
drowned. The brig, we have been informed, was
struck by a water spoilt, which caused the disaster.
The Brighton fishermen say, that they do not recol-
lect having seen waterspouts so frequently as of late.
Tuesday afternoon, at Harbledon, in a field north-
east of the residence of the Rev. I. B. Bunce, the
electric matter struck the top of un elm-tree, and
stripped the bark, in a longitudinal direction, about
three inches broad, on each side of the tree, for thirty
feet. The bark thus riven from the body of the tree
was driven a considerable distance. into an adjoining
wheat-field. The noise it, occ*ioned is represented
by the laboureri as being' truly terrific. A bilcband-
man in a field adjoining, whO had been quicklyhud,-
