ington, was charged with stealing a pole.—Charles
White, of Fordington, had had the pole in a pile,
missed it, and saw it in a little flower-garden, in front
of • house where Prowse lodges, and after asking
Mrs Billett about it, he took it away. —Prosecutor
asked leave to withdraw the summons; but Mr.
Symonds pointed out prosecutor was liable to be sent
to gaol, and all who were concerned in compounding •
felony. It appeared he had agreed to settle the case
by payment of 54 to the hospital.—The Bench ordered

summoned for furious driving.—P.C. Haggerty said
last Friday evening, about eight o'clock, near the
Junction Hotel, he saw defendant with a horse and
cart, driving up the road as fast as he could trot.
Witness spoke to him ; but he continued doing so; he
was cautioned a second time, when he got out, and
put his man into the trap; but as he was still endanger-
ing the passengers, witness took hold of the horse, and
asked the man's name, when Dean said he was
responsible for what the MAO did, telling witness to
let the horse go, which witness did, when Dean came
on the foot-path, stopped him, shook his fist in his
face, and used bad language.—The policeman spoke so
quietly that it wee difficult to hear him, and • gentle-
man remarked that probably he made more noise when
he was out of doors.—Mr. W. H. Brown saw nothing
of the furious driving; but hearing there was • die-
turbanoe near his house, he went to hear it, and Con-
sidered the policeman kept his temper remarkably,
and did his duty well.—Fined 30s. and meta, or a
month's hard labour. _
