brought before the Lord Mayor, charged with felo-
niously entering the Spread Eagle Tavern, in Grace-

a valuable gold watch, the property of an officer
lodging in that house. The Prisoner, it appeared,
had gone to the Spread Eagle on the day in question,
and stating that he was a farmer, residing in Chelms-
ford, Essex, from whence he had been recommended
by a Nir. French, known to the proprietor of the
tavern mentioned. The Pi ironer was accordingly
accommodated, and shown into a room, No. 43, in
the house. The Prosecutor lodged in No. 41, and
having observed the Prisoner. he suspected his np-
iearance, and went down stairs to communicate his
rears to the proprietor. These it appeared were not
premature, as upon the Prosecutor returning up stairs,
he obset ,ed the Prisoner glide swiftly from his room
into tis own, and having proceeded to examine his
property, he missed his watch. An alarm was in-
stantly raised, but the Prisoner had in the meantime
made his escape. A diligent search, however, being
made by the Officers, he was taken into custody, anti
the watch found in his possession. The Prisoner was
remanded for another examination.

was cbarged with robbing the Royal Oak Tavern,
Bermondsey. Mr. Watkins, the landlord, stated
•.that the Prisoner was a sailor boy, to whom he had
been in the habit of extending his friendship, allow-
ing him to make the Royal Oak his home whenever
Le was on shore. On Tuesday evening last, his
daughter, a child about ten years of age, was sent
up stairs for something, and returned in the greatest
alarm, saying there was some person in .her mo!lier's
bed-room. ?Jr. Watkins, on this, went up stairs,
and after a close search, diqcovrred the Prisoner con-
cealed under the bed ; and on searching him, found
