•knowing the highly respectable connexions of the prisoner, and hi,
generally attendee deportment during the hours of business, he was
the last person whom he suspected of those who had amen to the
chambers. During the last month, however, a circumstance had
transpired which more than ordinarily excited his suspicion that it
must be some domestic depredator who had lately plundered him
and stimulated him to make those inquiries which have led to th:
apprehension of the prisoner. A few weeks since he (Mr. R.) rr-
caved money from the country, for one of his clients, and fir safe
custody deposited it in his escrutoire. On the following morning
he found the desk unlocked, and from the cash deposited on dm
preceding day had been subtracted a Bent of Ragland note tie
forty pounds. Still suspicion did not fall on the prisoner; nor mil

the prisoner. _ _ _

Lee, the :officer, stated that he apprehended the prisoner yetuerday
at a house in Nelson-street, City-road, where he had turnisb_ed
apartments in a most extravagant style, and was cohabiting with's
female named Ellen Lister. A large quantity of trinkets, he. fly.
nished by the prisoner, was found on the premises. together with a
series of amatory epistles, which bore strong evidence of the
deftr-
sion under which the prisoner laboured from the fascirtatioo of his
frail fair one. He was remanded for a future examination.

T. Davey, the driver of one of the Paddington stages, was charged
with stealing a sovereign, belonging to a Mr. John Langdon. It
