POLICE INTELLIGENCE.
WEDNESDAY.
Business rather slack. One elderly female, and two young ditto—the first found drunk, and the two latter preparing to follow the example. As the first was not under Her Majesty’s protection, she was free to depart on the disbursement of the usual fee regulated between the Benevolent Society and the Constables, and the two latter being bond, and found in a public-house, only escaped being sent to a larger one kept by one GEORGE SMYTHE*, from the fact of their being good characters, and the circumstance of one of them being about on Monday, to change from Miss into Mistress, and she “trusted his worship would not baulk it,” his worship considering a drop had some connexion with an altar, he “pitied and forgave.”
