• ?MICE.

THAMES POLICE OPPnce.—Friday Pod, Baran,
•Chys: and Jarvis, underwent ancther examination,
It was now ascertained that upwards of 82,400
worth of bullion had been taken from on board the
Archduke Charles, but how much more, the proprie--
tors could not ascertain. The vessel coatained, be-
sides bullion, 4,000,000 of dollars ; and to facilitate
the remov.l of these from Lima undiscovered, they
were packed in parcels, containing 500 each, in boxes
of bark, of which there was a conslierable quantity
on board ; and the missing a bag of treasure from
one of these boxes, was what first led to suspicion.
Uron farther investigation, the silver bullion which
was concealed in bags under the coal-heap was miss-
ing. Chips bird been concerned in removing part of
this from the docks ; and at the time the reward of
100 guineas was offered for the conviction of the of-
fenders, he had some of it in his possession. The
steps taken by him on that occasion, and the subse-
quent apprehension of the other prisoners, is already

before the public.
Mr. ALLEY again attended on behalf of Chips,
and contended, that he was entitled to be admitted
an evidence, under the Bum-boat Act ; in which it
was provided, that any person concerned in commit-
ting depredations on the river Thames, who should,
previous to his apprehension, give such information
as led to the conviction of his accomplices, should.
not only be entitled to his Majesty's pardon, but also I
to the reward, if any, attached to the conviction (41
the offenders. A person was examined, who stated,
that he was applied to by a Custom-house Officer,
who has since absconded, to assay some silver for
him. He had three lumps in his possession similar
to those produced : be did assay it, and found it
worth 6s. 3d. per ounce. The Custom-house Officer
said he had offered it to a few for sale, who offered

him Al. per lump for it.
Captain Moose said it was worth £3O. a lump.

Mr. lIERRIOTT said, as the prisoners would ex•
perience no inconvenience from being remanded, he
wished that course should be adopted, and time given
to discover, if pnssiblc, the Custom-house Officer
alluded to. In the mean time, he wished Chips to
consider whether it would not be more for his interest
if he were to relinquish all claim to the reward, as
snch conduct would add considerably to the weight
and credit of his evidence. The Plisoners were then
all remanded for further examination.
Saturday Hey Whik was brought again to Bow.
street, on a charge of robbing the Glasgow Bank,'
when no fresh evidence being adduced, he was coin
mitted for trial at the Surrey Assizes, for being at
large previous to the expiration of the time which lie
was sentenced to serve on board the hulks. A de-
tainer was also lodged against hint for the above
rubbery.
J. Bunn, alias Dumplin, was charged with assault-
ing and endeavouring to stabb M. Moore, a hackney-
coachman. The prisoner, on Friday night, hired the
prosecutor's coach at the Circus, to take him to the
New Hummums, Covent-garden; when arrived there,
he endeavoured to make off without paying his fare,
and, on being stopped, added that he drew a knife,
and swore most horribly he would stab the coach-
man, who, being alarmed, let him go, but several
people having collected, an alarm was given, aad
was secured, and, on his arrival at the watch-house,,
he assaulted the prosecutor again. This evidence,
was confirmed by Mr. Goatley, a shoemaker of Rus. '
sell-street, who asked the prisoner who and what he'
was ? when he replied that he lived by thieving.•—
This statement of the prisoner Humphries, belonging
to the Office, said he knew to be true. The prisoner
acknowledged he was not in any employment, nor
did he do any thing for a living. He was commit-
ted for want of sureties.
W. Kin:, 19 years of age, was charged with viola-
ting an infant, seven years of age, daughter of a trades.
man in Villiers-street, to whom he was apprentice.—
During the last month the infant's mother, alarmed
at the altered looks and declining health of her child,
took her to a surgeon, who discovered not only that
the poor child had been thus grossly ill treated, but
that the monster had communicated to her a most
horrid and loathsome disease. The only. account
that could be obtained from the child, was the same
she had previously given to her parents, namely, that,
while they were out, the prisoner had beat her. The
utmost skill of the Magistrate was in vain exerted to
obtain such information as would justify the prisOner's
committal, and he was with extreme reluctance com-
pelled to dismiss him, after a severe but just reproof.
Cocherell was on Saturday charged, at
Guildhall, with uttering, as a five pound Bank of
England note, one of theilark notes for five pence, in
payment for a horse which he had purchased for £1
M. The prisoner was ordered to stand committed
till Monday, and the necessary information in the
mean time to be communicated to the Bank Solicitors.
Wednesday. night, about eleven o'clock, as Mr. G.
Lawrence, of 1. eatherstone.buildings, was passing
through Long Acre, he was hustled by a gang of
pickpocket!, and robbed of his watch, chain, and seals.
