EXTENSIVE ROBBERY AT MANCIIESTER.—Yesterday
(Friday) a gentleman of the name of Knowles came out of
the Branch Bank of England, where he had been to get
notes for a cheque, and this, with some other money he
had in his possession, amounting in all to £440, he placed
in a small German pocket-hook, putting it in his pocket
inside his coat. He felt the book in his pocket at the
time he left the bank ; he walked along Chancery-lane, and
was on the point of turning into Fountain-street, when he
again put his hand to his pocket, and found that his
pocket-book was gone. Information was immediately
given to the police, who took the most prompt means for
the capture of the thief.---Itionehesier Courier,
