Charles Lamb, a "tout" about the outside of the Royal Italian Opera, was placed at the bar charged with assault ing John Watson. The complainant said last night, just as the opera was closing, he was standing near one of the iron gates, when the prisoner came up and asked him what he wanted wait ing about the entrance, and told him to " hook it." He (complainant) told the prisoner to go about his business, when he with two or three others surrounded him. Lamb deliberately made a snatch at his neckerchief, and a gene ral disturbance took place, during which the police con stable came up, and the prisoner was given in charge. Police-constable 82 F confirmed the statement of the complainant. _ In answer to the charge, the prisoner said he was "a harmless hinnercent man," as the reason he was in charge was "cos the police had a spite agin him." He was quite certain " he never took hold o' the genleman's choker." The:magistrate fined him 10s. The complainant Watson then stepped out of the wit- ness-box, and was placed at the bar charged with interfer• . . . ing with the police. Police constable F 45 said, about half-past two this morning, I was on duty in St. Martin's-lane, when the prisoner came up to me and said he was a special constable/ and that as he did not approve of my conduct he should take my number and report me, as he had been sent from Bow •street to look after the policemen on duty. Magistrate to prisoner —What do you say to that ? Prisoner—l totally deny it. Police constable 33 F said I saw the prisoner in St. Ma rtin's-lane last night. A girl was walking away from him, and I asked prisoner if she had insulted him, he said no ; and shortly afterwards he said he was a special constable, and that he had been sent from Bow-street, and should take my number. Magistrate—Do you wish to ask the witness any ques. tion ? Prisoner—l should think eo. 'Are you sure I saidi was a special constable 2 Constable—Yes ; certain. Prisoner—Your worship, I did nothing of the kind. I was going throw gh St. Martin's-lane about half-past two this morning, when I saw police constable 45 up a court with four or five girls. I said I should take his number, and then ho ask.a 1 for I told him he was not doing his duty in talking to the girls at that time. 33 F caffie up and asked me if the girls had insulted me. I replied, no; but that I should report No. 45 for talking with the girls. Policeman 33 said he thought I was as suming the character of detective, and that he should take ma in charge. I said I was neither a detective nor a con stable. Magistrate—Your first charge against Lamb was made at half-past 12—you were then in Bow-street; what took you into St. Martin's-lane at half-past 2 ? Prisoner—l wanted to be up to business early in the morning, so, as I was out late, I thought I would not go to be at all, and then I should be sure to be in time. I said nothing about being a detective. Magistrate—There seems to be some mistake. The police are jealous of their honours, and don't like to be interfered with. Under all the circumstances I shall discharge you. MARLBOROUGH-STREET. ASSAULT BY A. MAN OF COLOUR.--A man of colour, about 6 feet in height, was charged with assaulting Mr. S. Lambert, of the Wheatsheaf Tavern, Oxford-street. Mr. Lambert said that on the previous evening the pri soner came into his house at a time when he was pretty full, and used the most disgusting language. He told him to leave and followed him to the door for the purpose of seeing that he left, when he turned round and struck him a severe blow and then ran away. He was puriued by some per sons whom he struck and bit in a very violent manner. Mr. George Mather, of 37, Gloster-street, Queen-square, corroborated Mr. Lambert's statement. Mr. Tyrwhitt said he should fine the prisoner 20s. or 14 days. The prisoner went into a respectable house, used disgusting language, and then assaulted the owner of the house when he tried to get rid of him. He (prisoner) was one of those pests about London that must be stopped. " l'ti TORN BROWN, ESQ."—William Burbidge, a ser vant, was charged as follows : Mr Richard Flack, of the Crown, Park-lane, said that he went into his bagatelle-room the previous evening to tell some persons who were playing that some one else wanted the table, whentheprisoner,whose friends were play ing, said, "You fat-headed old I'll kick your inside out." He then sent for a constable, and while the person was gone the prisoner said he would kick his - head off. The prisoner then made a blow at him with his fist, which he guarded off. He then asked the prisoner for his address, and he replied, "Oh, I'm John Brown, Esq., of 1, Eaton square," but believing that to be false he gave him into custody. The prisoner was then quite sober. Mr. Tyrwhitt said it was very gross conduct towards the complainant, and the defendant must find one surety in £lO to keep the peace. VIOLIINT gol-DI.DAS —Thomas Barrows Lula "William Mathewson, both corporals of the Grenadiers, were charged with behaving in a violent manner at the Blue Posts, New man-street, Oxford-street. Burrows was fined 55., and the other discharged. THAMES. EXTRAORDINARY CASE OF CHILD STEALlNG.—Eliza beth Godfrey, a woman about 30 years of age, was brought before Mr. Selfe, charged with stealing two children named Kate and Mary Gough,' the first aged four, the other two years, in Edinburgh on Saturday last. The prisoner is a soldier's wife, and she left Edinburgh on Saturday, taking with her two children, whose parents are in Scotland. Directly the children were missing a com munication was forwarded to London, and last night, on the arrival of the General Steam Navigation Company's ship Caledonia, at their wharf, St. Katherine's, the prisoner was arrested by S. Farthing, a police constable, 133 H. The two children were with her. The following letter to Mr. Orchard, of the St. Katherine Steam Wharf, in expla nation of the prisoner's apprehension, was read : "Edinburgh, Sunday 19th May, 1861.—Dear Sir, A wo man named Mrs. Godfrey, a passenger by the steam ship, has, it seems, taken away with her two children belonging to the people with whom she had been lodging. The father has been at me to-day in great distress. He is in poor cir cumstances, and unable to go by rail to-night, by which means he could have intercepted them. Will you, there fore, on the arrival of the vessel, kindly look out for this woman, and 'secure the children. Ido not know, how you will manage as to keeping them until the first ship leaves for this, but the police will perhaps assist you if you see any difficulty. The children are fine girls, aged re spectively four and two years. The eldest is named Kate, the youngest Mary Gough. Let me know for the informa tion of the distressed parents what is done.--I am, yours truly, ROBERT SINCLAIR. Farthing said that when he arrested the prisoner on board the Caledonia, at the St. Katherine's wharf, last Right, she said that she brought the children away from Edinburgh for the purpose of conveying them to Alder. shott for the benefit of their health. He believed the father of the children would come to London by the next steamer for the purpose of prosecuting the woman for stealing them. Mr. Selfe said the case was one for further inquiry. He directed that the children should be provided for, and re manded the prisoner. MIS DAYS SHIPPING.

There is a general though strong impression among season-ticket holders that the Crystal Palace on its great shilling days is a place rather to be avoided than otherwise. For those who return home by rail, and who on these occasions would have to struggle for a third-class seat, and might even fail in getting that, perhaps it is; but, setting these inconveniences aside, there is to our mind no place so thoroughly enjoyable as the Crystal Palace on cheap holiday fetes and Londoners' days out. There is a spirit of good order and good nature ; there is a zest and keenness in the feeling with which the masses give themselves up to the rational amusements of the place which is seen nowhere else. Ten or fif teen thousand people dispersed in groups pic-nieing I all over the gardens is alone a sight worth seeing, especially as it can b e seen i n E nglan d , and nowhere in England but at the Crystal Palace. Hampton Court or Richmond give us only the details, on a small scale, of these great gatherings, and one must tgioontoalNorwood ur a u f e t ettrritic alslifs of b h e wishes I tuousdeuen b u t op l e y rf day ec : folk in the zenith of their fun and enjoyment. Yester day, as Whit Mo n d ay always is, w find n these uu and tuuedm a upwards us amusement 3 e O n ,t from a 0 OOasa fa visitors e ir sample iv i nthe morning appeared f o to morning till darkness had set in. The programme was, of course, arranged to suit a ll t astes. There were bands and Swiss singers, Christy's Minstrels, and the upper fountains ; th ere was a revival on a small scale of the ancient sport of falconry; there was a balloon ascent, a presentation of colours to Volunteers, the great organ and band s again, ;and above all there were the peoples' re.. sources to improvise fun in th e gardens on their inclined. game uTfhkusisut.hi: c o but u n latelyt p ow as n tor a a c l the ring was revived and played w i th as strict whenever m uch neg le cted s himself present to conduct the simple rite, and . regard to rules as if the amorous origina tor . was the handkerchief was kept, going t o . the im mense delight of the spectators, till it unfortu nately fell into the hands of a youthful couple who kept it so exclusively between themselves that popular feeling underwent a reaction, and the patrons of the ring diminished. The rifle ground was, of course, crowded, in spite of its in oonveniences. If the directors would only establish a proper rifle range, we quite believe its revenue would be no unimportant addition to the general receipts. As it is now, no marksman cares to shoulder a rifle in a dry ditch of a hundred yards' length, with scarcely a possibility of missing the zinc roof or hitting the ground beneath it. Never theless, it was well attended yesterday, though, of course, only by those who know nothing of a rifle except by name, and who paid their money and took their choice between the zinc and gravel aforesaid. Toxephilites mustered unusually strong, for the long bow is a weapon which requires incessant practice to use it with even tolerable proficiency, and so, of course, every - body who hasn't tried before goes in at once for the bull's-eye. Yesterday the popular impression seemed strong that all could hit the target, and. every effort was hailed with fresh shouts of laugh ter, and the merriment continued with each failure in spite of a continued monotony of most lamentable misses. When anybody did go near to hitting anything a silence, as of awe, fell on the perplexed, spectators, as if somehow they did not feel quite sure but that the lucky marksman might hit the target next. Inside the Palace Christy's Minstrels were the favourites, and never have these popular artiste performed before larger or more delighted audiences. Many could not get within hearing of the orchestra and resorted to the Alhambra and ham sandwiches, or turned from the contemplation of high art to a study of Allsopp or Crystal Palace sherry. The Swiss singers were a great attraction, and so also was the balloon, till it went up with a rapidity that rather disappointed people, who seemed to have a vague impression that it ought to have loitered about the gardens for the remainder of the evening, and not gone where people could see it who hadn't paid anything. At a little after four, Captain Berdoe, on the second terrace, presented a handsome pair of colours to the Finsbury Rifles (39th Middlesex), at which ceremony an im mense crowd of spectators were present. On the whole, there were amusements and entertain ing events yesterday for every half-hour of the day, and the programme was arranged with a liberality that quite justified the large patronage of the pleasure seekers. It was late at night be fore the last of the visitors was clear of the Palace. On Saturday week next Blondin is to appear, and perform his Niagara Feats from the top of the building, we believe. On the rope his own neck is safer from damage than many of our readers would be in an ordinary causeway. It is only when he carries anybody uu his back that the real danger is incurred, and we t rust t h at no such harrowing spectacle will be attempted at Norwood.
