coming down Holborn on Tuesday evening, be
observed the prisoners in company with two other
notorious characters, and watched them as far
as Snow-hill, where they held a short consultation.
The witness then heard one of the prisoners say to
Miles, ugo in ;" when the latter entered a shop, but
soon returned, apparently without effecting his inten-
tion. Hi 3 companions then said ugo in again,"
which he did, but returned as before. Meantime,
however, one of the party entered the door of ono:her
shop, and attempted to carry away a piece of born.
1 banene, but this be?ng fast, and a person in the shop
having seen him, he ran off and escaped. This per-
son was followed by another of the party, but the
three prisoners continued their route up Snow-hill,
where Miles put his band into thereat coat pocket
of the prosecutor, and robbed him of tl:e articles iM
question, which lie banded over to Chapman. The
' Officer immediately informed the prosecutor, and the
prisoners being followed as tar as Smithfield, were
taken into custody, and the property identified. They
, were fully committed.

the Sisaaiard, underwent an examination, and was
fully committed for trial, charged with stealing the

cupying the adjoining bed-room. .
UNInN-lIALL.—F. A Wards. was again brought up.
charged with cutting and m.timing Mr. Dibley, with
intent to kill him. Mr. Dibley was new sufficiently
'recovered to be brought up in a chair, but could not
sit without support. He stated that he was baker to,
and overseer of the paupers in the workhouse, and a
complaint having been made of the prisoner's con-
duct. he was sent up stairs to desire heavould cone
down to the Committee. The prisoner refused and
went into the work-room, witness followed him urg-
ing him to go down, but the prisoner still refused,
and was going up stairs to his ward; witness told
him he must come down, and put out his hand to
take hold of him, the prisoner at this time had the
knife in his hand, and struck at Dailey several times,
who for some time parried the blows, but at last re-
ceived a blow in the arm, which inflicted a deep
wound ; lar this time they were got into the ward, the
Prisoner threw Dibley doter), and stuck the knife
through the back part of his bead with such force,
that he pinned him down to the floor • whilst Dibley
laid in this situation the prisoner stood and looked at
him. Dibley pulled the knife out, and threw it from
him on the floor; the prisoner took it up and made
two other blows at his victim, but happily they did
not take effect. Dibley's cries bad by this time drawn i
several persons to the spot, just as the witness fainted,
and knew nothing of what followed ; this statement I,
was confirmed by that of several paupers who saw
the.transactiOn. Mr. Brown, constable, and acting
overseer for Lambeth, stated, that he was with the
Committee at the time this uufortunate transaction
took place ; he was sent up to see what was the
matter, and on entering the room there were near
forty persons present ; the prisoner was standing up
with the knife in his hand, and said be would be taken
by do one. Witneu said to him, io Richards, you
must go with me to the Committee." The prisoner
replied he would go any where with the witness, but
would not give up the knife. Witness then rushed
in upon him, aimed both his arms, and threw him
down, and some other persons coming up the knife
was taken from him. When before the Committee,
one of thi gentlemen said, u Richards, what have
you done for yourself 1" to which he replied, u I don't
care what I have,do_ne for myself, since I have done
for the baker." On the part of the prisoner, his wife
and son stated, that he was at times deranged. parti-
ciflarly at the full and change of the moon. Many
persons who bad known him for several years were
:present. and said. they never before heard pf this cir-
cumstance. He was fully committed for trial at the
