I'OLICE REPORTS.

Mawuow-nousr.—A locksmith named Mormon was brought be-
fore
the LORD MAYon by Mr. Plaistowe, one of the Ward officers,
charged with having broken into a jeweller's shop in a new and speedy
way, and with having stolen a gold ring and two gold seals.
The shopman to Mr. Gray, of Leadcnhall.street, jeweller, stated that
the prisoner, as he passed Acing, shoved his elbow with great violence
against a pane of glass in the shop window, and broke it; after which,
he endeavoured to get off, but was pursued and apprehended. The
glass was of the thickest kind used in shops in which valuable
goods are exhibited. The robbery followed the noise of the break-
ing so quickly, that skill and experience must have been both
at the command of the prisoner. A person, who resides near
the house of Mr. Gray, saw the prisoner drop a ring, con-
taining the bust of George the Fourth, after the window was smashed.
This ring was identified as the property of Mr. Gray. In the pri-
soner's pocket were found two seals, the property of Mr. Gray, and
a short piece of pointed iron, with' which it is not at all doubted the
window was broken, and which appeared to be exactly adapted to such
employment.
The Lou) MAYOR asked the prisoner whether he had any thing to
say about the possession of the goods of another person ?
The Prisoner.—it was quite an accident, I assure you, my Lord. I
was passing along quickly, and just as I came opposite to Mr. Gray's
shop I slipped, and fell right against the window and broke it.
The LORD MAToa--Very good. And how did you happen to
have the ring and seals of Mr. Gray about you ?
The prisoner hesitated, and said,—Why, the ring, my Lord, you
Nee—

Mr. Hob suppose you caught at these things to prevent you
from falling ?
Prlsotter.—Just so, please your Lordship.
The Loup Mes=on.—And instead of sating you from falling, they
fell into your pocket ? (laughter.)
Prisoner.—l don't know how on earth they got there. I assure you
It must be by accident. I was in a great flurry at breaking the glass,
and did'ut know what I was about.

The LORD Mayon.—And why did you fun away ?
Prisoncr.Wity, my Lord, because I hadn't the price of the glass /
broke about me. The thing was quite nat'raL

The LORD MaToa advised the prisoner to get ready a better ue-
fence, and committed him far triaL
Orriannu.t..—Heats, the landlord of the Albion coffee.shop, in
Long-lane, Smithfield, attended before Sir J. PERRINO, Bart, yestcr-
da , to answer a complaint of keeping his house open at improper hours,
Toe

the complainant, said the house in question was regularly kept
open all night, and desperate thieves and prostitutes were harboured.
He had warned the defendant by desire of his superiors, but he did not
pay the least attention to it. He found it open at a quarter put three
o'clock on Thursday morning, and in consequence made the present

house was open before four o'clock, or later than twelve at night.

Mr. Brown, the pawnbroker, in Fetter.lane, attended to answer two
informations lodged by one James Mowbray, gentleman, for taking
more than the lawful interest on two loans made by him.
Mr. Brown pleaded guilty in the outset, observing that, as he found
his shopman bad been in error, he would not avail himself of any tech-
nical defects in the information.
The defendant was fined 40s. on one charge, and the complainant
I agreed to take costs only on the second.
