MOOB•YAK/L Y. VIII COUNTY OF HIRT& —Thia
match was played at No Pan's-land, near St. Alban's, on
Saturday, the 27th bit. In the second innings of the
county of Herta Mr. C. Reid, who had been mooring very
fast, hit a bumping ball up towards the umpire, on the leg
side, and fortunately then MY no short leg, or the sprin-
ters would have missed a real enjoyment. The Hon.
Alprnon Grosvenor, who was long stopping, made an ex-
traordinary rush, caught the ball within about six inches
of the ground, got overbalanced in the effort, but allowed
himself to roll over and over like a shot rabbit upon pound
as bard se s road, while he retained bold of the half with
both hands. John Lillywbite said it was the finest catch
he had seen in bin life, and the Hon. R. Orimston gave one
cheer more for Harrow. The score is as follows :—Moor-
park, first innings, 61 ; second innings, 69 ; total, 130.

Raveshill. Sakai& and Co. She has, however, recently

China trade and has undergone considerable alteration!,
both as regards her engines and her hull. Her length is
230 ft. 6 in., her extreme breadth being 26 ft. 6 in., and her
breadth between her bulwarks 24 ft. Her engines are of
240 horse power. About noon Mr. Sabel received about a
hundred of his friends on board the vessel at Tilbury, and
she at once proceeded to the measured mile at See Reach.
This distance was run several times, the result being an
average speed, with 250 tons of dead weight on beard. of
141 knots an hour. After the trial the party were taken
to inspect the Great Eastern at Sheerness, when she lies
waiting to receive the Atlantic cable, and is daily visited
by excursionists.

whoa the defendant met me. In one land ha held a carrot ;
be MI off the end and spat it in my
face as he pulsed me. I turned round and eked
" What did you de that for" He replied, " You
Dutch bitch, move ea." I said, " Waif • moment." He
thee seised me by the back of the seek and hair and pushed
me along ; he also forced his knee against the back part or
my person. After getting me along a few yards in that
manner my bonnet come off and my drew locoweed. I
wished to stop and adjust them ; he would not allow me,
but said, "Move on, you pig. I'll place you some-
where." My things were in great disorder from his violence.
I said, " For God's sake don t tear my clothes in this way."
He exposed me shamefully by so doing. He said, " Yon
have five kids, have you not, and an after one, too r
He took me to the station-horse ; I Weever been in such •
plus before. He said something over a bar to the inspector,
who then Poked him, " What is your charge?' Defendant
replied, " There was a row in Bell-lane. I wanted her to move
on, sad she would not." The inspector repeated his quas-
i too, and received the mine answer. The inspector then
; said to me, " 171 let you go this time," and I left. I was
I so injured by the violence used, and so alarmed, that I have
been obliged to have medical attendance from a Mr. Black-
man. lam enceinte.

To support this testimony four witnesses were celled, viz.,
Henry Cohen, confectioner, of Wentworth-street ; Jacob
Fontin, also of Wentworth-street, a tailor ; Sarah Davis, a
single woman, residing in the Tenter-ground ; and Amelia
Aaroo, also living in the locality mentioned, each of whom
swore that there was not any disturbance or gathering of
parsons before complainant was ill-used by the constable, but
all disagreed strange) y in the manner of that ill-usage and
the ban e used. Neither of them could speak as to what
at the station-house.

H 150, Mersey, 134 11, and
Isaac Harebell, a beenhop-keeper, were then called for the
defence. They gave a thoroughly distinct denial to the
entire evidence for the complainant, swearing, as they did,
that between 100 and 150 persons were assembled before the
defendant reached the spot ; that complainant herself was
quarrelling with another woman, and when mildly requested
to go away spat in the constable's face, and used
words in reply which in common decency may not
be mentioned ; that the defendant had not a carrot
or aught else in his hand ; and finally, that he used no more
foroe, when at length compelled to take her to the station-
house, than was absolutely requisite to get her there. The
woman she was quarrelling with left quietly.
Sergeant Oliver, 19 H, a most respectable officer, stated
that on the day in question he was acting-inspector at the
Spital-square station, and when complainant was brought
in she was charged with; being disorderly and fighting with
another woman. Oa her promise not to return to the spot
be allowed her to go away. Defendant was perfectly sober.
Complainant was very much excited. She made no complaint
against the constable, and her dress was not observed to be
in disorder.

Mr. Ellison, at the conclusion of the evidence, which
lasted the entire afternoon end beyoud the usual boors of
hulloes., remarked—The discrepancies in the testimony of
the witnesses in this case are so numerous and important
that they would astonish any persons not accustomed to the
atmosphere of a police court. I shall notattempt to decide
upon it, but mod the whole evidence before a jury. De-
fendant will enter into his own recognizance to appear and
answer the charge at the sessions.
