THE POLICE COURTS.

GUILDHALL.
A labouring man, who refused his name and address, was
in the early part of the week before Alderman
charged
Phillips with wilfully breaking the plate-glom window be-
longing to Mr. West, • goldsmith and jeweller, at Lndpte-
hill, and stealing therefrom eight gold Albert chains, value
201. On that occasion the primmer was very violent, and
it was found necessary to handcuff his hands behind him ;
and when placed in the dock he set up • regular Irish howl,
which he continued for some time, and then he struck upthe
bold anthem of "Erin go bragh," to the great amassment
of a crowded court. It was found imposeiblis to proceed in
his presence. and he was accordingly locked up in the cells
while the evidence was taken, after which he was re-
manded. He was now brought up before Alderman Bosley,
and the evidence read over to bin, to the effect that be
broke the platmglass window with his fist, and thee seised
the gold chains, some of which he dropped on the pave-
ment, and the remainder were found in him possession. The
prisoner's temporary imprisonment had produced • very
salutary effect upon him, for he was now quiet, and on
being committed for trial walked back to the cell apparently
se contented as if he had been discharged.
WORSHIP-STREET.
Hugh Silrester KinaAon, 90 years of age, No. 349 N
division, was charged before Mr. Leigh with violently as-
melting Clam Fuller, by kicking her.
Mr. Inspector Wiseman, who placed the prisoner at the
her, said that the assault in question had assumed • mod
serious aspect at one time, but he was happy to be enabled
to state that the young woman was now better.
The following evidence was then received:
Julia Davis—l am • single poison, and employed as •
milliner. Between ten minutes and a quarter past one
o'clock, mm., on Friday morning, I wee in Minton-
street, New North-road, with other young women. There
were seven of us in all, sad we had just left off work.
One of them observed, " We will have some hot-cross bass
to-morrow, for ityie Good Friday." The prisoner, who was
is uniform, then came np, sad mid something, but what
I did not hear. At that time four of the young ladies
were walking behind myself, Barth Phillips, and Cbus
Fuller, who was between us. Helisesed the four, took
Gan ham between us, sad kicked bee twice behind. She
screamed cat, and then said, "Oh, my gracious, you have
killed me!" He (prisoner) then said something, and again
kicked her and shook her. Clara afterwards said, , ' Oh,
do take me to your mother, for lam dyingr She was
helped by us there ; it was to Ivy-lane, Horton. Some
police-constables came up, and subsequently the prisoner,
who was pointed out as the man. Clara was afterwards
removed to her own home.
Mr. Safford (clerk)—Did the appear to suffer much pain
Witness—Oh, yea ' • at the bottom of her back,
Mr. Safford—Wee she in good health previously!
Wiener —I think not ; and believe that abs had not long
been out of the hospital. She lees suffered from • disease
of the heart. She lives at 18, New Gloster-street, Hag-
gerston.
A certificate was here put in signed by Mr. Griffiths, the
divisional surgeon, and purporting that Clara Faller was
suffering from ba:morrhage.
A gentleman conceded with the business of the Miss
Peaky', milliners, 3 and 4, Forstomstreet, New North-reed,
observed that it was impossible the young woman onuld
live, as three physicians who had seen bet ce.Friday so in-
formed him.
Inspector Wiseman declared that since then be bad re-
ceived better intelligence. She certainly was in • precarious
condition at present.
Mr. Leigh refused application for bail, and remanded the
prisoner.
This prosecution is at the instance of the Mies Commis-
dossers.
The prisoner, who was dressed moat respectably in private
clothes, was Linen off hie beat between 3 sad don Friday
morning by Sergeant Sturgeon of the same divides.
LAMLBITH.

Dennis Durkin, aged 10, andelerwye Wardens, aged V,
were charged under an ant of partiament passed last sea-
pion, entitled "An Act for I •ding and Ocersolidating
the Law relating to Industrial Schools," with being under
14 years of age, and found validating about, not having a
hors as
t or shelter, or place of abode, or any visible mean
of subsistence.
Inspector Young, of the L division of police, informed
Mr. Elliott that instructions from the Commissioners of
Police, tinder the act of the 24th and 25th of
Victoria, had been given out in orders to the constables,
and the present was the first case that had been brought
under his worship's notice. The desniption given in the
debate ci the children Sage to be sent to industrial
schools was : "Any child apctely node, the
age of fourteen years foundbegging or recede*
alms, or being in any street or pub pleas for the
purpose of begging or reserving alms, or found wan-
dering about, having no settled home or place of abode or
visible means of subsistence, and frequenting the company
of reputed thieves." The prisoners were found in the
parish of Lambeth on the night before in a state of perfect
destitution. The amount they give of themselves was that
they had oo parentalivieg, andohnlined• scanty existenceby
singing in the streets, and it was therefor, taught desir-
able to take them before his worship to be dealt with under
the act.
Yr. Elliott, on referring to the act in question, observed
that hehad the power, under its provisions, tosend children
for education and training to any certified industrial school
whose cases tome under the description in the set. Inquiry
was first necessary, and he (Mr. Elliott) should lint, as
directed by the statute, order the children to be takes to
Lambeth workhouse and there kept for the term of seven
dem and at the end of that time to be brought before him
&pia. This sot has long been found necesaary to clear the
public streets of the shoals of young thieves who daily and
nightly crowd them.
