THE WORST MAN IN LONDON.—Francis Jones, a hump-backed man, was charged before Mr. Knox with the following disorderly conduct : Samuel Yeo, 27 C R, said that about one o'clock that morning he was near the County Fire Office, when he heard the prisoner using very threatening language towards some of the unfortunates there, and as he refused to go away, and made use of abusive language, he took him into custody. Mr. Knox asked whether the prisoner was known? Barns, the gaoler of the court, said he had known the prisoner for sixteen years, and when he first knew him he was a bully at a brothel. The pri soner had been charged at that court with following females and getting money from them by threats ; he had been charged with stealing a watch, and also with attempting to murder a female by cutting her throat because she would not give him money. The prisoner said that for the last offeuce lie suffered two years' imprisonment. Barns said that on the 10th of last month tha prisoner was charged at that court with attempting to extort money from and assaulting a gentleman. He had repeatedly been at that _court, and he was the worst man in London. In answer to Mr. Knox, the constable said there was no chance of getting any of the women threat ened last night in attendance, as they were afraid to come. Pool, the assistant gaoler, said the prisoner once received nine weeks' imprisonment for a series _of assaults on women near the County Fire Office. Mr. Knox said that as none of the women were in attendance his hands were tied as far as they were concerned. For the disorderly conduct the prisoner would have to pay 405., or a mouth. WESTMINSTER. DISGRACEFUL CONDUCT OF GOVERNMENT SER VANTS.—AIfred Blake and George Collins, two big, powerful.men, were brought before Mr. Selfe, charged with the most disgraceful conduct. William Oliver, 384 B, said that iet half-past three yesterday afternoon he was passing through Princes-street, Westminster, when he met the two defendants. Blake immediately said, " Here is a Bobby," and then proceeded to use most filthy language. Witness told him to go away, when Blake immediately attacked him right and left about the face and head. Complainant struck him on the shoulders and back of the head with a truncheon. At this time Collins came up and held complainant, while Blake was striking him, and also tried to take his truncheon from him. Blake was rescued by him, but two other constables coming up he was retaken. Mr. Selfe—What was their condition ? Complainant—Blake was drunk ; the other had been drinking, but knew full well what he was doing. M. Morgans, police-constable, said that when he came up Blake struck him several blows on the side of the head and kicked him repeatedly. An M.P.'s butler also gave evidence at full length. Ile said that the attack was most disgraceful, and the conduct of the policeman entitled to much com mendation. ➢lr. Selfe said there were other names of disin terested persons on the police-sheet who had volun teered their testimony for the constables, and he found the defendents were both watchmen at Somer set House. Blake said he was drunk and very sorry; the other denied the charge. Mr. Selfe —The only question on my mind is whether I ought not to send you for trial, but I will take into consideration that you will both lose your situations. It is most disgraceful to find per sons conducting themselves in this way—especially Government servants, and the language used in broad daylight in such a public place is a great aggravation of the offence. Blake you are com mitted for two months:without a fine ; Collins, you are fined 405., or 14 days. Blake—Pray put a fine upon me. I have a wife and three children. Mr. Selfe—You should have thought of them before.

THAMES. THE BIRD-LIME THlEF.—Thomaa Bush, aged 28 years, and described as an anchor smith, of No. 10, St. Dunstan-road, Stepney, but who is known to the police as the bird-lime thief, was brought up on remand charged with stealing £2 ss. from the Bur dett Tavern, Burdett-road, Limehouse. On Monday afternoon last Mr. 11. S. Love, the landlord of the Burdett Tavern, left his bar for a few minutes. At that time there was silver to the amount of £4 on the shelves in the bar. A communication was made to Mr. Love, which induced him to leave his house and run after the prisoner, who was overtaken by him. Ile charged him with robbing his till. The prisoner said nothing, but he put his hand behind him, and a quantity of silver fell on the ground. Mr. Love afterwards received 18s, which the by standers picked up. A few shillings was taken from the prisoner. Mr. Love missed 455. from his shelves. A boy, named George Parsons, saw the prisoner remove the silver, piled in heaps of 11 each, from the shelves by means of a stick, the end of which was covered with bird-lime. lie called the landlord, and the prisoner fled with his pocket full of stolen silver. Jonathan Goodburn, 163 K, said that he found a box containing bird-lime on the prisoner, who had lately come out of Maidstone Gaol, where he had been confined for a similar offence. The former robbery was committed in a public-house iu Plum stead, and by Means of birdlime. The prisoner was committed for trial. ROYAL BOTANIC GARDENS, REGENT'S-PAINC. Soule fine plants of the prickly pear, covered with living cochineal insects, have just arrived at those gardens from Madeira. Both plants and insects are in a more healthy state than thcso generally imported ; this is no doubt owing to the care with which they were prepared in Madeira and shipped by direction of the donor, Mr. H. 11. Temple, as suggested by Mr. tV. Sowerby, the as istant-secretary. The specimens are placed in the Economic-house, so named from its being devoted to tropical plants used in the arts, manufactures, and domestic economy. FALMOUTII, Sept.

The half-yearly meeting of this company was held at Halstead on Monday—Mr. J. Brewster in the chair. An abstract in the report appeared in The Sun. The CHAIRMAN, in moving its adoption, stated that a dispute between the company and Mr. C. B. Sperling had been referred to their respective soli citors, the redult being the acceptance by the com pany of £382 in cilicharge of their claims against Mr. Sperling. Wail respect to the revenue balance of £ll2 for the past half-year, the directors pro posed to expend it in repairs at the Haverhill, Hed ingham, and Colne stations ; the balance would have been larger but for the payment out of revenue of landowners' interest and the secretary's salary. With different rates in connection with the Great Eastern system the company would be in a far bet ter position, and the directors were attempting to secure this by arbitration, Captain Tyler, of the Board of Trade, having been appointed mutually by the two companies to decide upon the rates and facilities for traffic. Mr. CARDINALL suggested a renewed application to Parliament for running powers over the Great Eastern Railway to Cambridge. After a brief discussion, the report was adopted, and the proceedings closed with a vote of thanks to the chairman and directors. lIEXHAM AND ALLENDALE.

The meeting was made special, and the necessary powers were given to the directors to apply to the Board of Trade for an extension of time to make the second section of the line. PEMBROKE AND TENBY.

Tobacco is unusually promising, and if early frosts go not prevent, the crop will be one of the largest and best over gathered in America. According to the Telegraph there appears to have boon a squabble last week at Homburg-on-the-Heights, between a captain of her Majesty's 92d Regiment and a Mr. 11., an American. The Telegraph is fond of mansa tional pictures, and its staff are noted for drawing on their imagination, so we accept with a large margin of allowanes its statements of the occurrence. The captain, who sat in therestaurant at dinner, with the American between him and the window, directed the waiter to open it, to which the American who was close to it objected, but the Irish officer insisting, the master of the restaurant was sent for, who endeavoured to satisfy both by keeping the window par tially open. The American, rising from his place, told the Irishman that he was "a sneak," which Paddy resentei by an unexpected blow,which floored the person who thus off hand delivered the oracular opinion on his character. The Telegraph, finis fault with the American because ho handed the affair over to the police. Had ho taken a carv ing knife and cut the Irishman's throat, he would Lave acted more in accordance with the traditions of his own country, and answered the expectations of the Telegraph. But the American appears to have been more sensible after, than before he" collided" with the Irishman. Neither appears to have shown " striking" good manners, and wo certainly think that the consent of the person sitting next the window should be obtained before that of another in the middle of the room insisted on its being opened or places changed.
