The prisoner, lo detente, said that before be was taken into cm-

aU shoot it.

The officer replied, that the only account he gave him was. that
he bad woo It playing at skittles, in Stepney. He (the of bad
no doubt, U the prisoner was remanded to a future day, of being
able to bring several other charges ot "smashing" against him, as
within the List week or fortnight a gang had been very succor/Id
in imposing on various tradesmen in the parish.

The ptii-ooet wan aemorclingiy remanded until Tuesday neat.
Tuesday morniag, between eight and nine o'clock,
the warehouse of Messrs. Comber and Sons, silk manu-
facturers, Union-street, Bishopsgate, was entered by
means of a skeleton key, and ten pieces of gros de Na-
ples, value 1001. were stolen. It appeared the clerk .
locked the warehouse, and went with a child to school,
leaving, as is usual, the ball door open. The ro►bets,
taking advantage of his absence, opened the warehnnse
door with a skeleton key, and apprehending his speedy
return, they contented themselves with ten pieces, which
they put into a black bag, and effected their escape
with such precipitation that they lett the skeleton key
in the door. On the return of the clerk the robber
was instantly discovered, and information of the facts
was conveyed to the Public Office, at Worship-street.
Accordingly, Hanley; an officer, repaired to the Ware-
house, and received instructions as to the numbers and
wr flog on the tickets, as well as their private marks,
together with the colours and description of the silks,
and which had only the day before come np from
Colchester.. In the mean time, Tyne', an active officer,
and one of the Bow-street patrol, coming to a know•
ledge of the facts, and judging of the weight of silk
stolen that it would be difficult for one man to catty
it through the streets, he repaired to the coach stand at
the bottom of Bishopsgate-street, and be there under-
stood that some short time before a coach had been
employed to convey a large parcel, and that it took the
direction of Shoreditch Church. The officer instantly
followed, and suspecting a jou►neyman silk weaver,
named Goodwin, who resides in Vincent-street, at the
rear of Shoreditch Church, be repaired to his lodgings.
and going up stairs he met Mrs. Goodwin, and asked
her rt she had anything in the room that did not belong
to her? She denied having anything of the kind; and
when he drew the bag from under the bed, she then
admitted that it was brought there when she and her
bu.band were in bed. The officer then brought her
and the propirty to Worship-street. and returned in
quest of her husband and his companion. He had not
been waiting many minutes when Goodwin and another
man, named Stanley, went into Goodwin's lodgings;
the officer followed and secured both, and brourbt
them also to the Office, when they underwent a short •
examination before Mr. Walker, when Mr. Comber,
junior, clearly identified the property, and the prisoners
were all remanded until Saturday. Thus, in less than
one hour after the robbery, the property was recovered
and the thieves io custody.
