POLICE INTELLIGENCE.
SATURDAY.
MATILDA FINLEY (bond) was charged with absconding. The prisoner was within a few days of becoming free, and considering that the Government had been the gainers of many months’ service by her beyond the period assigned by the Judges of the land for her moral and regenerative reform, in consequence of her having received several slight additions, which elongated seven into nearly nine years, had resolved to take a day to herself—but, unfortunately, falling in with INSPECTOR FOX, and giving but a very indifferent account of herself, she was confined, and subsequent advices from Concord reported the loss of her valuable services from Mr. McCULLOCK’s establishment. The day of FINLEY’s liberation was therefore deferred for two months, to give her an opportunity of paying another visit to the 3rd Class, thereby adding another period, of two months, to the numerous ones already appearing on the debit side of her account current with the Government.
