Tuesday, September 18. (Before Messrs. J. H. Wright and G. Russell, J.P.'s.f Larceny. — A special Court was held on Tuesday, the ISth, when a highly respectable looking person, named rtoward Haywood, was charged with feloniously taking the sum of £3 in notes, on the evening- of the 14th, from a bedroom in the Tuakau Hotel, kept by a Mr. George Brown. The prisoner was in charge of Constable MeGovern, who arrested him at Papakura. Ke pleaded not guilty. After hearing the evidence of Mr. and Mrs. Brown, with the constable, which occupied the Court a considerable time, the presiding Justices, after a short consultation, said that although the case looked very suspicious, there was nothing in the evidence before the Court on which they could convict. The case was therefore dismissed.—[Own Correspondent.]
