Yesterday a yours man, who gave his name Minn AWE, bat
positively refused to tell Acre he lived, saying be bad no home,
was charged with stealing a cloth, the property of Mr. Adcock,
landlord of the Flying Horse, Wilsonsetreet.
It appeared by the evidence, that the prisoner went late Mr.
Adcock's parlour about ten o'clock on Wednesday morning, and
had a pint of porter. Atter he left the house the clock was missed,
anti suspicion falling on him, an accurate description of his person
was given to the taws, Who. in the course of their inquiries, dis-
covered the cluck at a pawnbroker's, where it had been pledged
by the prisoner. On Ntouday he called at the sane shop to pledge
another clock, and was taken into custody.
Several publicans, who had had their clocks lately stolen lo the
same way, attended at the office to see die prisoner, and four of them
identified him as a person who bad been at their houses about the
time their clucks were. stolen.
The Magistrates observed, that the case proved against the pri-
soner was quite sufficient to commit hien for trial; but as the robbing
of public-houses of their clocks was so eatensitely carried on, be
should remand hint for further examinaden.
