OLD BAILEY.

Yesterday William Green was indicted for stealing
in the dwelling-house of William Stevens a promis-
sory note for the payment of £lOO, another note for
the payment of LSO, two brooches, value £2O, thirty-
six spoons, value £l7, five rings, value £l5, a pearl'
sprig, value £l2, and other property, valued at £252.
Frances Stevens proved that her husband was a
licensed victualler, living at No. 41, Marshal-itreet,
Caruaby Market. • On the 22d January, at about
twenty minutes after eight in the evening, the arti-
cles were missed from witness's bed-room. She knew
nothing of the prisoner. On the evening in question
she was sitting in the bar: she thought she heard' a
noise up stairs : she took the candle off the table and
went into the passage: she listened for a short time
at the foot of the stairs, and heard no more. She
then turned round and opened the tap-room door,
and called a young man olthe name of Thomas Bar-
ber. He did not come, but her two servants came
out, and asked what was the matter ? In the mean
time, the prisoner came-down stairs, and came up to
her. She said to him—" Where have you been ?"
He replied, " 'Up stairs." Witness asked, " Wheze
to?" and he susswereil, " In the two pair."—" To
whom did you go there?" said the witness, and the
prisoner made answer, that it was of no consequence,
it was no business of hers. Witness set the candle
down, Laid hold of him by the collar, and said, " you
shall not go till you have told me where you have
been." In the interim, a servant girl of hers came
out, and likewise laid hold of the prisoner, saying,
" Ohl mistress, he is a thief." A person of the name
of Mark Cooper came out, and also took hold of the
'prisoner. A great confusion followed, and a young
man of the name of Jones, a lodger, carte down
stairs, and fell oler something in his way down.—
" Hallo rhe said, " here's a table in the way." The
prisoner was taken into the tap-mom, and was de-
tained until one of the servant girls had gone up
stairs to see if all was safe.' She presently came down,
crying—" Oh! mistress, your room has been broken
open, and the club box is gone." . Witness afterwards
went up stairs, and found thatbesides the club box a
small red trunk was gone. This little trunk contained
a quantity of plate and jewels. On the bed a midi
Tunbridge-ware box was thrown, having been emp-
tied of its contents: Witness then ran down stairs,
and said, "I am robbed." While she was up stairs,
the prisoner had been searched, and upon bun were
found tin picklock keys, a dark lantern, a crowbar,
and a phosphorus-box. None of her property was
found upon him. An officer was sent for, and the
prisoner was taken away. The club-box had not been
completely broken open: there were several other
club-boxes in the roam, but they had been untouched.
John Herd, Steward,of the Benefit Society whose
club-box had been stolen, proved it to be his property,
as being plaCed under his care: There were several
marks of a crow-bar on the club-box, which were not
there when he left it,before the robbery.
• Mark Cooper said, that he went into the public-
house to get something to drink, on that evening.
When he went in, he saw the prisoner standing out
the door of the public-house. and in about ten
minutes afterwards, when he went out, the priSoner
was still there.

The officer proved the apprehension of the prisoner.
The prisoner said, in his defence, that he kiWw no-
thing of the robbery. The picklock-keys and the
other implements for house-breaking he had the care
of for a friend of his who was a locksmith.
The Racoanza.—" A friend rave you these im-
plements, did he? Pray what sort of a friend was her
