Mr. Child, solici .or to the Licensed Victuallers' Society, defended. Complainant said he went to defendants' house and presented a bill for payment of some news papers. Mr. John Mason disputed having received a " Dispatch," and refused to pay for it, and ordered complainant out of the house. Complainant then said, " I am out, and it may not be long before you are out, too." Mr. John Mason then said, " Oh, I see what you are; come back and I will pay you." Complainant returned, but instead of payment he was assaulted by the two brothers, having his feet trodden on, arms twisted, and nose wrung. Mr. Flowers—Then you mean to say the de fendants had a new way of paying their old debts ? Mr. Solomon, who behaved in a very excited manner during the whole proceedings, produced a certificate from a doctor showing the excitement produced on complainant by the assault. Mr. Solomon—My arm was so twisted that I could not button my clothes for a week after. Mr. John Mason said to me when in his house, " Get out," as if .1 were a dog, but it was a very good job I was not, for I firmly believe a dog would have turned round and bit him. I told him I should sue him,:and as I said before, and don't mind repeating, he seemed to derive such pleasure in wringing my nose that he pulled me backwards and forwards, and I do not believe he would have let go if the blood had not been so slippery that his fingers slipped off. (Loud laughter.) Sydney Garrick deposed that h 3 was passing by at the time and saw Mr. Solomon thrust out, with his nose bleeding, from the Lamb public-house. Mr. Flowers—The Lamb is rather an odd name for the defendant to hold if he is guilty of the as sault. (A laugh.) _ _ _ Mr. Child said that the assault had been entirely misrepresented. There was no pulling of the nose at all. The complainant had behaved very badly, bawling out in the public-house, " Are you going to pay me ? Your never pay any one, but you shall pay me. I will sue you in the county court," and such like expressions, calling him scoundrel and other not very complimentary names. A crowd hal collected and the defendant was compelled to eject him. Mr. Child, for the defence, called a man named Edward Shaw, a dog-dealer, living in Bear yard, at the same time remarking the Bear-yard is rather a curious place for dogs to be in. This witness proved what Mr. Child had said, and distinctly said the nose was not pulled. Mr. Mason only placed his hand over the complainant's mouth. Mr. Solomon—Did you see me punch my own nose ?—(Loud laughter.) Anne Brown, 2, Lincoln's-inn, corroborated, adding that Mr. Solomon raised his stick to strike Mr. John Mason, but she laid hold of the stick to prevent the blow. Mr. Solomon—Now:attend to one witness. LI do not dispute the fact ; but answer me. Will you declare that you do live, or hold in your possession, said houses in Lincoln's-inn-fields. Now, upon your oath ? Mr. Child—Do not dapper with legal techni calities. Mr. Solomon—lf you please. Other witnesses were called, who made similar statements, Mr. Solomon asking each if they saw him strike his own nose, to the intense amusement of the Court. Mr. Flowers said he had no doubt the assault was committed, although provoked. Mr. George Mason should be discharged, and Mr. John Mason must pay a fine of 40s. into custody, and a fearful row ensued. Sheen struck Braybrook on the face, and said, " You shall not take her to the station-house." She was taken to the station-house after a determined re sistance. Stones were thrown, and foremost in this attack was Michael Tuppen, who called out to the crowd, " Let the - have it ; don't allow her to be taken." Shepherd 43 H saw prisoner throw a stone which struck Braybrook's helmet. Mis. Catherine White, who produced a bundle of black hair which she said was dragged from her head, said the shawl was never taken by Mrs. Duggan at all, but she (White) left it at the Rose and Crown in the Back Church-lane. Mr. Benson was satisfied with the evidence of the police as to the assaults by Sheen and Tuppen, and committed them to prison for seven days each. With regard to some of the witnesses for the pri soners most fearful perjury had been committed, and if the woman who had told so many lies did not fetch the 'shawl, where she s lid s'm had left it, immediately, he would commit Mrs. Duggan for trial. Ile remanded her for the present. Mr. Abrams—Upon that intimation, Sir Thomal I shall apply to you again in due time. The prisoner was then removed:by Redstall, the gaoler, and locked up. Ile will of course remain in custody over to-morrow, the day fixed for the fight, as the 24 hours' notice required for notice of bail will entirely preclude his being at large before that time. The capture of Allen has been made in accord ance with the directions of the Secretary of State for the Home Department given to Sir R. Mayne. The necessary information having been given before Sir Thomas Henry, the chief magis trate, he at once signed the warrant for Allen's apprehension, which was placed in the hands of Inspectors Silverton, Tanner, and Clark for execution. Inspector Silverton who, it will be remembered, captured Mace on the eve of his battle, and his colleagues at once proceeded to Manchester, and tho result of their exertions is now a matter of public notoriety. The Act of Parliament passed at the end of the session rendering railway companies liable to £5OO fine for letting trains for prize fights rendered it necessary tlat other means should ba adopted; and notwithstand ing the capture of Allen, a steamer, to start on the instant, was this morning iu readiness to convey the combatants to the spot agreed upon, provided bail to a limited amount—and which was in attendance at the police court, was accepted. The heavy bail and notice, insisted on by Sir Tho:nas Henry, entirely frustrated the intention of the friendS of Allen and Goss, who, in the event of Allen's liberation, intended to bring the fight off - this afternoon. MARLBOROUGH-STREET. ROBBERY AT THE CIVIL SERVICE CO-OPERA TIVE STORES.—George ➢i'Donald, a counterman at the Civil Service Co-operative Stores, No. 23, Hay market, was charged before Mr. Tyrwhitt with stealing some biscuits and a pot of potted ham, thl property of the Civil Service Co-operative Com pany. Mr. F. Pike, the secretary of the company, said that on Saturday afternoon his attention being sailed to the prisoner, he asked him what he had in his pockets, and took from them some biscuits, and the prisoner took out the rest, admitting that he had taken them, and, after appealing for mercy, stated that the biscuits was all he had got. A pot of potted ham was given up by the prisoner. For the protection of the other men employed the priso ner was then given into custody. In answer to Mr. Tyrwhitt, Mr. Pike said the prisoner had been in the employ of the company about nine months. The prisoner said they had been taking stock and be had been drinking freely. He put the biscuits into his pocket, but he did not remember putting the pot of barn in. He hoped the magistrate would not convict hint of stealing the things as it would ruin him, but make it a case of unlawful possession. Mr. Tyrwbitt asked Mr. Pike whether the pri soner would be dismissed from his situation ? Mr. Pike said he would. Mr. Tyrwhitt remanded the prisoner. THAMES. How PEOPLE ARE KILLED IN THE PUBLIC STREETS. —A brickmaker, who gave the name of William Davis, was brought before Mr. Benson charged with furiously driving a horse and cart while he was in a state of drunkenness. Last night Mr. Buckingham, an inspector in the service of the Commercial Gas Company, saw the prisoner driving a horse and cart i n a most furious and reckless manner along Stepney-green, and several persons narrowly escaped being run down. Turning the corner of a very wide road at the entrance of the Hannibal-road he came in con tact with a gas lamp•post, and knocked it out of the perpendicular. The cost of making good the damage would be 7s. 6d. The prisoner gave his address Bow Common. The police could not find any one bearing that name on Bow Common. The prisoner now said that he was in the service of Mr. Thomas Morris, contractor, whose horses stood on Bow-common. He admitted that he was tipsy. Mr. Benson said it was a most disgraceful and dangerous proceeding to be driving through the crowded roads and streets of Stepney on a Suntlay evening. He tined the prisoner 2s. 6d. for being drunk, and 7s. 6d. the amount of damage done, and in default seven days' imprisonment. WIIITEC lIAPEL IN AN UPROAR.--Catherine Duggan, a fat Irish woman, was brought before Mr. Benson charged with assaulting Sarah Briant, and robbing her of her shawl. Peter Sheen was charged with assaulting constable John Braybrook, 72 11, and attempting to rescue Duggan from hi s custody ; and Michael Tuppen was charged with throwing a stone at Braybrook and striking him on the head. There was a serious Irish row irr Rosemary-lane on Saturday night, in which the Whites, the liar ringtons, the Sullivans, the Scaulans, the Sheens, the Tuppers, and the Donovans took part. Mrs. Mack, of. Bethnal-green, was sent for, and was in formed that her daughter was being " kilt and murthered" in Rosemary-lane, and she found her daughter, Sarah Briant, in the hands of Mrs. Dug gan. " She had been murthering her all the even ing, and was murthering her when I came to the fore," said .Mrs. Mack, in the usual spirit of Irish exaggeration, " and she then bate me to death," said the woman, Mrs, Duggan was taken WESTMINSTER. BREAKING TIIE PLEDGE.—Francis Fox and Geo. Oakenfield,•respectable looking men, were chargihl with being drunk and assaulting Mr. Ashbourn, landlord of the Lard lligh Admiral, Vauxhall bridge-road, and further with assaulting police constable Finney, 31 B R, in the execution of his duty. Mr. W. D. Stnyth, solicitor, of Rochester-row, defended, and stated that Mr. Ashbouru withdrew from the charge, Charles Finney, 34 B R, said on Saturday night he saw a mob round the Lord High Admiral ; the prisoners were there di unk and violent, having just been ejected from the house. They were trying to force open the door ; witness interfered to prevent them, when Fox struck him a violent blow iu the eye and he closed with him ; they both fell, and then the other prisoner came up and caught him by the throat and tried to choke him. They were taken to the station, and were sa violent on the way that they had to be carried. Mr. Smyth declined to cross-examine the witness, and said the fact was they were so drunk at the time that they know nothing of the occurrence, which they regretted ; they were sober, steady men and liquor took more effect on them than ordi nary persons more used to D. He called Henry Ilorn, a foreman of plasterers employed at the Grosvenor mansion, who gave them a good character for four years ; they had been teetotallers up to Saturday night. They were not known to the police. Mr. Sells said if they had been ho would have sent them to prison 'without a rine ; he sentenced them to pay 40s. or go to prison for a month. The fines were paid. THE FIGHT FOR THE CHAMPIONSHIP. Another disappointment to the votaries of the prize ring has occurred by the collapse of the fight for the championship and £4OO that was to have " come off " this morning. Every precaution had been made to insure the combat taking place, and it was hoped by some enthusiasts that the en counter would have revived the " fallen fortunes of the ring." The battle was to have taken place between Joe Goss and Harry Allen ; and although when the match was first made strong doubts were entertained as to whe ther the would-be belligerents actually " meant business," the regularity with which the deposits were paid into the hands of the stakeholder, and the active training pursued by both men appa rently disarmed all suspicion as to " foul play." An aquatic party had been fixed upon, and a tra ditional " well-known spot" chosen down the river, the recent penal enactments with regard to railway companies and the P. R. having pro bably stood in the way of the promoters of the affair procuring the more convenient " special." On Saturday night, however, the whole business was most decisively quashed by the successful in terference of the police. Allen, while on his way from his training quarters to his town lodgings, was arrested at Willesden Junction by four policemen, and was safely incarcerated in Bow-street. EXAMINATION OF ALLEN AT BOW STREET-THIS DAY. The prisoner Henry Allen was placed before Sir Thomas henry this morning, and from the publicity that had been given to the fact of his arrest, a great many of the prominent members of the "P. R." were in attendance, both within and without the court. The prisoner is a remarkably smart and powerful-looking young man, with short hair, and standing nearly six feet, and the charge preferred against him was that he was about to commit a breach of the peace in a pugilistic encounter with one Joe Goss on the Ist of September. Mr. Abrams appeared for the prisoner. Inspector fanner said he knew the prisoner to be a prize fighter, and one of the principals in a con test with Joe Goss that was fixed to come off on the Ist of September within the London district, which meant only a comparatively short distance from London. The prisoner bad on a former occa sions taken part in a prize battle. Mr. Abrams—You say the prisoner is a pugilist? Don't you know that he is the proprietor of the Railway Inn, Manchester ? Witness—Yes. Mr. Abrams said that he did not get his living by prize fighting. Witness--Well, yes ; but has fought once before to my knowledge. Inspector Silverton said that he, in company with Inspector Clarke, apprehended the prisoner at Wellesden station on Saturday night last, about 8 o'clock. The charge was told to the prisoner, who, in reply, said " He would rather have lost £5OO than that his arrest should have happened." He also said, " Have you got the other man ?" Sir Thomas Henry—What is the amount of the stakes ? Inspector Tanner—£.2oo aside. Inspector Clarke corroborate I the evidence of Inspector Silverton with respect to the prisoner saying he would have given £5OO than that he should have been arrested. Mr :Abrams (to Inspector Clarke)—You say he said be would rather have lost £5OO than that the capture should have been made. Did he not say that he would not go under another training for £500? Witness—l cannot now remember whether he did or did not. Sir T. Henry—Was the latter a suggestion of yours, Mr. Abrams? Mr. Abrams—No, Sir Thomas ; I could not make any suggestion in these matters, as I am totally unacquainted with them. The prisoner, as I am instructed, is a very respect,. able man, and in a good business as a publi can at Manchester. I have informed him of his position and respectability, and. I am assured by him that this matter will now entirely drop, that no fight will take place, and that I am prepared with a moderate amount of bail, which I trust you will accept, and thus enable my client to return to Manchester. Sir T. Henry—Full notice of bail will be re quired, and I must have two responsible persons. I must remind you, Mr. Abrams, these men have wealthy backers. Mr. Abrams—The backers are not here to-day, and I doubt whether they would become bail. No doubt they are quite ready and willing to find the money to contest the fight, but standing bail is quite another matter. Sir T. Henry—The stakes are very high, and the prisoner must accordingly find two sureties of £5OO each and himself in the same amount to keep the peace for twelve months, and the usual twenty four hours' notice must be given. • Mr. Abrams—The amount of the bail is very high, and I trust Sir Thcmas will reconsider it, with a view to a reduction, otherwise it will end in the prisoner remaining in custody for twelve months. Sir Thomas lleury—l have duly considered the matter, but you can take another opportunity of applying to me, as I have power to reduce the amount of bail. SPORTING NOTES. For Warwick meeting, to-morrow and Wednesday, Mr. Merry has issued an average list, though the principal han dicap, the Leamington Stakes (2 miles course) has proved a failure in point of acceptance, as only 14 horses stand from the 42 originally nominated. The filly by Newmin ster out of Irish Queen, Bst 121 b, is now the highest weighted candidate ; but she dues not appear so well in as Tertullus, Bst 51b, who is a son of Colsterdale, sure to stay the course, and likely to run better than he did at Brighton and Egham. King of the Fairies, Bst 21b, is much more favourably treated in the Great Yorkshire Handicap at Doncaster than at Warwick; and we apprehend ho will be reserved for the greater stake. Distaff, Bst 21b, is a plater ; but Bandmaster, Bst 11b, if sound and wanted, would be a formidable customer to dispose of. Python, ist 121 b, is a nonstayor ; and Clemente, 7st 71b, and Ligurian, Est 121 b, may be included in the same class. Moose, 7st 91b, cannot have been improved by his essays across country, and we have little faith in this uncertain horse for an important handicap. Vorti gern, 7st 91b, and Tribune, 7st 31b, represent the same in terest. Both horses have been favourably handicapped, and if Tribune—who is about the same animal as Bird seeker at level weights, measured by their Ascot running—is the elected one, he must take an infinity of beating. Whalebone, 7st 51b, has become slow, though on his best form he would have a decided win ning chance. Casse Tote and Papillon, each weighted at Est 121 b, aro indifferent fillies, notwithstanding the fact that both animals have hitherto enjoyed good private reputations. There are sixteen entries for the Shorts Handicap (5 furlongs), and four of the horses nomi nated—Mistletoe, Indian Star, Ulphus, and Bassoon— are in Lord Westmorland's interest. The best, which I take to be Indian Star or Ulphus, must therefore run well ; but Marshal Ney, whose weight, penalty in cluded for winning at Oxford, is only 7st 71b, will be a dangerous opponent to the elected of the Findon lot. In the Woodcote Nursery (5 furlongs) twenty-four juveniles have been handicapped, and the highest and lowest weights-Bst 101 b and Est —have been awarded to Light Cloud and Una. The pick of the horses named are Antias, Bst 31b, Hinton, 7st 71b, Charon, 7st 41b, the colt by Dundee—Blackbird, 7st, Hymen, Est 71b, and Una, Gst. Hinton, it will be remembered, was made the favourite for a Maiden Plate, won by Candidate, at Newmarket July Meeting ; and as 24 two-yr-olds finished behind him on that occasion, either he or Charon may be successful in this Nursery. The Castle Park Stakes (5 furlongs) may fur nish an interesting race, if Carlotta, Fleetwing, Antias, and Canteen antagonise ; but the most trustworthy of these is Carlotta, who is a very smart filly over short courses. Six of the eight races for Wednesday are com pleted, and all of these have attracted capital entries. In the Welter Cup (1. mile) sixteen horses have accepted. The brace of heavy weights—Silenus, list 81b, and Lord Ronald, list 51b—will act well over Warwick course. Neither horse, however, reads more tempting than Armourer and Python, the better of whom should win. The County Handicap (one mile) is one of Mr. Merry's usual flattering productions,*and the weights have been adjusted with more than ordinary care. Vespasian, 9st 51b, occupies the post of honmir, and over this his favourite distance Sir Charles Legard's fine horse will ba bad to beat. Still, Vespasian does not appear so taking as Van Amburgh, 7st 111 b ; Python, ist 31b ; Moonbeam, Gst bib; Tremble, Est 81b; Warrior, Est 91b; Kettleholder, sst 121 b; and Alicia, sst 111 b. Van Amburgh is possibly in reserve for a more important handicap than the County; but should this be the case, Mr. Angell will find a dange rous representative in Kettleholder or Python, whose most formida‘le opponent may turn up in Moonbeam, as Warrior is a doubtful stayer. Thirty-two horses have been en gaged in the Nursery Handicap (six furlongs), and the most noteworthy of these are Arlington, ist 101 b; Dunbar, 7st 31b; April Morn, let 21b; Venetia, Gst 121 b. ; King of the Rovers, Est 101 b; and Pompeii, Gst 91b. King of the Rovers, by running second in a large field to Lord of the Valley at Oxford, showed that he had not quite lost his spring form, and for the race under notice we shall couple him with Venetia. Tho Warwick Cup (2} miles) has attracted a brilliant entry of nine teen, and the following, amongst other horses, figure in the list: Julius, Speculum, Tabouret, The Spy, Strath conan, Beeswing, Vortigern, Fortunio, Lord Palmerston, Ilium, Tertullus, Achievement, Dalby, Charnwood, and the filly by Newminster out of Irish Queen. Julius, Speculum, Strathconan, Achievement, and Charnwood are likely to be absentees ; but Tabouret, For cunio, Beeswing, and The Spy may be found at the post. This lot, with a few others that will run for the off-chance, should make an interesting race, which may end in favour of one of the Middleham horses, Fortunio or Tabouret, as Boeswing, though tolerably fit at present, will be all the better for an extra month's training. In the Sweepstakes of 5 sovs each (4 furlongs) Memento or Bliss will win, as the best of their probable opponents are Weather Isle, Dulcet, Queen of Darkness, and Fleetwing. The Abingdon Meeting will take ple.ce on Thursday and Friday, and the programme contains thirteen races, four of which have closed for the first, and three on the second day. The Berkshire Stakes (11 miles) has secured nine acceptances, and, as Moonbeam cannot stay, and Vir giula Creeper is put out of court by a penalty for winning at Oxford, Mr. Brayley, by the success of Moose or Papil lon, should be the recipient of this stake. In the Craven Handicap (6 furlongs) twenty-three horses have been weighted, amongst which are Miss Hayes, 7st 91b ; 7st ; Lupus, Gst 12Ib ; Traviata, Gst 71b. Lupus, if he could be relied on, would win easily ; but, as he is an uncertain animal, we shall trust Valeria and Miss Hayes. The Trial Stakes (six furlongs) has fourteen subscrip tions, and among the horses named aro Acta, I, Tumbler, Lord Ronald, Black Flag, Arlington, Belfast, Ether, Naivete, Nanny Thormanby, and Lupus. Tho two year olds—Black Flag, Arlington, and Nanny Thormanby are likely to be found in the van at the finish ; and the best of this division, probably Arlington may be closely pressed by Naivete. On Friday, in the Culham Stakes (1 mile) Virginia Creeper puts up 71b penalty, which raises her impost to 7st 71b ; but this extra weight will not prevent Mr. Trimmer's filly from winning. From the twenty-three juveniles handicapped for the Nursery Plato (6 furlongs) we most esteem the chances of Avon court and Cyclamen. The Abingdon Stakes (6 furlongs) will fall to Arlington or Winifred. A FRESH MAN. PROGRAMME OF ISLE OF THANET (MARGATE) RACES.—TUESDAY, Sept. 1.

CORN. The general tendency of the trade is towards improve ment. From the country markets the reports come better, quotations firm from fully late rates to is, and in some cases 2s per qr. advance. The floating trade in wheat is decidedly Ftronger with more doing. At Mark-lane this morning there was a fair supply of English wheat, which was, however, held for is to 2s more money than on Monday last, at which sales progressed slowly. Foreign wheat realised is advance on American and some descriptions of Russian wheat. All other qualities mained a tendency against buyers. Foreign barbey is in good supply, and grinding descrip tions easier to buy. Fine malting remains firm. Beans and Peas rule as dear, with a reduction of sale. Maize, on the spot, firmer, and a large business doing for future delivery, at former prices. Malts of good quality, tho turn against buyers. Linseed dull. Flour in moderate request, and country marks the turn dearer. METROPOLITAN CATTLE. There was an altered aspect of the trade this morning. Supplies of the principal descriptions of stock were per ceptibly increased. In the dead markets quotations came lower owing to the large arrivals of both home and foreign killed meat. The tone was consequently dull, with lower prices for all denominations of live stock. Of beasts there were 5,740, including 82 Scotch, 305 Irish, 2,147 Eogl!sh, and the remainder foreign. Really prime bullocks wore scarce, and could hardly be bought cheaper, but in the general trade prices were fully 2d per stone lower, With sheep and lambs the market was also well fur nished, the number being 25,320, the whole English fed. Trade was languid, and lower rates were taken. Veal was also purchased under the terms of last week. 226 calves to hand. The fresh pork was not so good. 310 pigs arrived. Quotations—Beef, 3s 4d to 5s 4d ; mutton, as 4d to 5s 6d ; veal, 3s to 5s 2d ; pork, as 4d to 5s 10d per stone of 8 lbs, sinking the offal. NENN ; GATE AND LEA.DENHALL. Meat—A large arrival of foreign mutton, with an in creased supply of English, has depressed prices 4d to Gd per stone; prime 4s to 4s 2d, and foreign 3s 2d to 35'8d. Middling beef is also cheaper, at 3s 4d to 3s Bd, but prime small carcases are scarcely cheaper, and range up to 4s Gd to 4s Bd. Of veal and pork scarcely any at market, and very little inquiry.
