Saturday, Catharine Cowan was brought before Mr. Largo, the
'Magistrate, for stealing some cloth and a blue coat. Site was seen
offering the cloths for sale, and, being suspected of *waling them,
was taken up. A duplicate was found on her for a cost pledged
for four shillings, in Whitman street. A constable traced the
owner of the property, who was Mr. Treasure, a tailor, residing
in Monmouth street.

Mr. Treasure had been in the habit of employing the prisoner as
a confidential servant, and entrusted her husband to take work to
his own home. A week or ten days ago Mr. freasure went out,
and ou his return missed the articles nuw produced, which hr
identified as having !belonged to him.
Mr. LA IWO asked (or the duplicate, which was produced ; but It
did not state where the street was in which the person who pledged
the articles lived, or what her occupation was. These particulars
were required by Act of Parliament, and Mr. Laing said by this
carelessness the pawnbroker had been rendered liable to a line of
1001. and probably might have his expenees stopped when the trial
came on as the OW Dailey.

The prisooor was fully committed for trial.
