POLICE.

DI A NRION•HOInE.—S4tu ray William Sanderson,
a youth of notoriety, was charged with robbing a
gentleman in Moorfields, a few days since, under the
following atrocious circumstances:--It appeared,
that in the middle of the day a beast was observed'
coming furiously along, when the Prisoner and some
of his companions set up a shout, end by throwing
at the animal and pursuing it, they caused it to ran
se furiously that a chihd was upset and killed on the
spot. Several persons also were seriously hurt. An
immense crowd having in consequence collected, the
Prisoner was observed mixing among them, and in a
short time afterwards was seen riding the pockets of
several persona, among whom was* gentleman, the
Prosecutor, who was robbed of his pocket-book,
porket-handkerchief, &c.
The Prisoner was remanded for a final examina-
tion.

Mary Mitchell, was charged with stealing from the
person of John Isaacs, two dollars on Thursdey
night. It appeared the Prosecutor, who is a coun.
tryman, was on his way to his lodgings in the neigh-
bourhood of Whitechapel, when he was met by the
Prisoner and another female, who got round him,
and contrived to rob him of the property in question, '
with which they endeavoured to escape. Assistance,
however, being called for, they were pursued and
overtaken, but the Prisoner contrived to throw away
the money in the pursuit. In her defence, she said,
it was picked up by the watchman, who denied it on
'oath, yid who received a most excellent character in.
refutation of theeharge.
The Prisoner was remanded.
lIATTON-GARDpt.—On Saturday Sarah Norris
and Letitia Sidtois two well-known informers, were
brought op on a Bench warrant, charged ivith wilful
and corrupt perjury, on the oath of Lydia and Ca-
tharine SolomonSi sisters, whom the Prisoners caused
to be apprehended and examined at Bow-street,
charging the Complainants with taking illegal instil.-
, atice in the State Lottery, which charge wai proved;
to be false and malitious; in .consequence of which
the Coraolninants were discharged, and they indicted
the Prisoners last Session. They were committed for
trial, but the charge being bailable, they were or.-.
demi to give 21 hours' notice of bail to the Cont.
plainauts' attorney. •
Six unfortunate females, known by the name of
hedgers, being as brown as mahogany from exposure
to the sun, and sleeping in the open fields, were
brought up. The charge against them was too We.
licate to mention ; but it appeared on examination,
that lb* fields between Copenhagen.house and White
Conduit-house is so infested with them, that a modest
woman cannot pass that way. They were all cam-
witted for further examination on Tuesday next.

A report was prevaleni-in the City yesterday. that
BONAPARTE had been given up
.by 66 the Lads of
Paris" to the Allies, to be dealt with as they think
meet; whether this be so or not, we cannot with
any certainty state; the question asked •by every
body is, what will become of him ? the speculations
upon this subject sre, we suppose, as Uncertain as
are those of- what will become of the great Prize of
£40,000 in the present Lottery, the magnitude of
which, and the probability that it is the last Lottery_
in .w !sick the Minister will allow of so great a CiPital-,.
has made it a matter of as taped interest as sten the
