Li St E- STREET WAt will be seen, from an adver-
tisement, that a meeting of the electors of this ward is con-
vened to. morrow evening, for the purpose of making the ne-
cessary arrangements for the approaching municipal election.
We understand that, at the request of a considerable number
of the burgesses of the ward, John Buck Lloyd, Esq., has
allowed himself to be put in nomination as the candidate on
the conservative interest. Since Mr. Lloyd's settlement
amongst us, he has won the highest encomiums from all
classes of his fellow-townsmen, and we know of no gentleman
better qualified in every respect for protecting the local in-
terests of the ward, and the general advantages of the town.
Mr. Lloyd is active, enterprising, persevering, and, what is
not least in our estimation, a gentleman. in every sense of the
word.

EXTENSIVE ROBBERY OF PLATE, JEWELLERY

On Saturda

-MYSTERIOUS CASI

Mr. Ric

Thehyena late carrying on a

most extensive business as jeweller and silversmith, in St.
Ann's-square, Manchester, was brought before the borough
magistrurss, Messrs. Maude, Walker, and Armitage, on sus-
picion of being concerned in a very serious robbery which
was committed on his premises about seven weeks ago,
when property to the amount of 49000 was stolen. A man
named William.Moobay, was placed in the dock along with
him, who had been employed as a porter in the establish-
ment. Owing to the singular nature of the charge, and the
amount of property in question, the case excited the utmost
interest, and the court was crowded to excess. Mr. Thelwell
was sometime ago made a bankrupt, and the robbery had
been committed at the time the assignees were in possession
roperty, and when the bankrupt and his friends were
has of it.

Mr. Saunders, the solicitor under the fiat, appeared in sup-
port of the charge. Mr. Thelwell was defended by Mr.
Greene, barrister. In stating the case, Mr. Saunders said
the robbery had been committed on ie 22nd August last.
The assignees wider the fiat were chosen on the I2th of May,
when a person named Norton, a jeweller, in London, on be-
half of himself and several others, applied to the assignees not
to proceed to the sale of the property forthwith, but allow it
to remain as it was, merely selling by private contract, to
give the friends of Mr. Thelwell an opportunity of coming
forward and purchasing it in one lot. The assignees, know-
ing that when the property was under Mr. Thelwell's control,
a previous robbery had been committed, two valuable com-
munion services being stolen, felt that there was some danger
from repeated attempts of the kind, and employed a watch-
man to remain on the premises all night, and afterwards all
day on Sundays. He did so for three weeks, and was then
discharged from further attendance on Sundays by Mr. Thel-
well's order, without the knowledge of the assignees. The
robbery was committed on the third or fourth Sunday after-
wards, when the man was absent. Suspicion attaching to
Mr. Thelwell, it was found that on Saturday, the 21st Aug.,
the day before the robbery, he bad taken his place by the 3
p. tn. train from Manchester to Parkside (the place of junc-
tion to London), not in his own name. Thence he had gone
to Lancaster, also in a wrong name, and on being asked to
account for this circumstance, said he had gone there to see a
friend, and then that he had gone to see a young woman. He
had left Lancaster on Sunday afternoon by the train, which
