BOROUGH Police, Monday (yesterdayt—Before the
Mayor (Mr. Alderman Lock) and Mr. J. F. Hodges,
BROTHERLY LOVE.

Benjamin nosey complained that on Wednesday, when
in Star-lane, about ten in the morning, he was walking
through the street and met his brother Oeoroe Forsey, who
accused him . f insulting his wife. He told him the only
insult he hail offered her was to put a pair of boots he had
had to mend outside her door, to knock, and then go away.
Upon that his brother said he would knock his head off,
and upon his saying that if he did Pl—(knocked his head
off)—be would sunimons him, defendant took hold of him
and shook him twice. His head happily did not come off,
and hence the summons. Defendant also kicked him, and
since then he had been obliged to cripple down stairs the
best he could—Defendant, who, like the complainant,
wished to make a speech, told Benjamin that he bad
stated um site of the ease arid not the other. Ile put
two or three irrelevant questions reminding his fir thee
that he was on his oath.—Complainant afterwards added
amid some laughter from the plaintiff's friends that he
had forgotten to state that after his brother kicked him, 1
he hit him across the leg with his stick. —Defendant then .
made his speech for the defence intimating that if he did
unfold all, he would have enough to say to fill a Tidies
newspaper. His brother had kept company with a girl
who he now called his wife, and ever since then the
greatest hostility had been shown him —wishes being freely
expressed that they were either under the ground or in the
jaiL Ile Lail admitted that he said Li his brother if the
law would only allow him he would give him a good
thrashing, but knowing him to he a cripple his humanity
would not allow him to do so.—The Mayor at this
juncture said they bad had quite snorigh of it, snit lie
would have to pay a fine of 2s. 61. and costs.
A pot-valiant individual named Clutrle4 Smirkik on the
information of P.S. Mitchell, was " charged --as the
Mayor expressed it-ss, and cads for being drunk and
abusive in High West Street on the previous Saturday.—
Allowed a week to pay in or IS days,— Defendant, I don't
want the 14 days, I have had enough of they.
AN ALLEGED "JEREMY DIDDLED."
Robert Parker Read, of A abridge, whose brother we
believe is a magistrate for the County of Somerset, was
brought up in the custody of the police charged with
swindling.
Mr. Weston appeared for the prosecution, and said he
should simply call evidence sufficient to ask for a remand.
Mr. Frost, landlord of the Kings' Arms Hotel, said the
prisoner on Saturday, the 3rd March, arrived at his house
having come by the mail at three in the morning,. He
remained there until Tuesday. His bill ainounted. to
£2 Os. led, and in payment of it he tendered to the clerk
a cheque.
The defendant here said he had money in the bank at
the time when the cheque was drawn, but it was put to
a wrong account.
The Town Clerk said then he could bring an action
against the hank for damages.
Mr. Frost continued—The cheque was drawn for
I:2 les ed, on the Bristol branch of the London and South'
Western Bank, and lb. 2.1. was given the prisoner in
change. The cheque had been presented at Messrs..
Williams bank and returned marked "credit withdrawn.'
Mr. James Harding he knew from information held a
cheque which had met with a similar fate.
Mr. Weston now asked for a remand for a week, for
the attendance of the bankers.
In reply to the Mayor, Mr. Frost Bald he did not pay in
the cheque until he happened to hear of one being
returned for a much larger amount. The Stmerintendent
further produced communications be had received in reply :
to enquiries he had made, which showed the defendant
had drawn cheques upon a bank at Cheltenham where he
had no account and had never had one. At Ely, in Cam-
bridge, he had almost made himself known. A letter from
agents of his father also showed that it was desired to get
the young man to leave his country for his country's good.
This was as far as he proposed to go at present, Mr.
Yeston said.
Defendant (to the Bench): Will you accept lasil.
The Mayor: Yes, certainly. 1
Mr. Weston would ask if it were so, that it should be I
very substantial, because it was not the only case in which
he would have to appear against the defendant
The Mayor: We shall certainly accept bail—two sureties
in .elfle each.
Superintendent Coward: I have received comniunica- '
thine relative to the prisoner from nine different places.
Mr. Henry Mayo, who entered the Court at this point,
intimated that he also held two cheques uttered by the
defendant, one for £5, and one for £7O.
Defendant said he had not had the goods for thorn '
cheques.
Mr. Mayo intimated the £7O cheque was for a horse, but
he had declined to part with it
The prisoner's hank-book was produced, and the counter-
foils showed cheques had been given to • very considerable :
amount—one to a Mr. Haney for £5O, for beasts, bought I
at Exeter market. Upon this
The Mayor said they could not give him bail under those
circumstances, and he wag accordingly removed in
custody.
Charles Tholnaa, ostler at the White Hart Hotel, Doe.

Mr. Weston was for the prosecution; Mr. Hanne for
the defence.
