lag through Pentonville-road, and when passing the corner
of North-street the prisoner threw a handful of white P
in his face. Fortunately moat of the pepper went on leis
hat, and not into his eyes, as intended. The prisoner threw
the pepper with his right band, and with the left made •
grasp at the prosecutor's watch and chain. He palled
at the chain with such force that when he broke it he
stumbled backwards, and nearly fell. The prisoner then
ran away, and he followed and seized him, on which the
Prisoner drped the watch and called out " Now mate,
mate, look tharp." The prosecutor stooped and picked up
his watch, and afterwards picked up one of his keys. He
still kept bold of the prisoner. On the way to the
*Utica the prisoner said the prosecutor ought
to think himself lucky that the stuff he threw
did not take effect, or he would never again have seen his
watch. Tne prisoner did all be could to get away, and had
not the complainant been a stronger man than kis assaibiat,
the latter would have made his escape. There was a man
with the prisoner. but the prosecutor said he should not be
able to identify him.
The prisoner, in defence, said he could not deny the charge,
but be had done it through distress, and being in want of
bread.

A previous 000riction for felony having been proved against
the prisoner, on which octagon he had snuff in his pocket,
Yr. Harker fully committed him for trial.

Eliza Jordan, 26 years of age, was charged before Mr.
Ceche with the above-mentioned offence.

Mrs Blade, a widow, living at 46, Preston-street, Mile.
end New Town, said that prisoner, whom she had known
for • considerable time, arse to her about a month
Moos, representing that she bad left her service and
was desirous of a lodging for • short period.
Witness, well aware that the young woman had
been in • situation for three years, gave her
the required accommodation, totally unacquainted with the
fact of ber being encienie. On Tuesday week lark in con-
sequence of • communication made by a person named
Eliza Poniton, • search was made. and in the prisoner's
bedroom found a female infant, wrapped in • black cloth and
lying in the fire-place, which bad • screen before it. The
police were consequently informed of this, and the child
was removed to the workhouse,
Eliza Poulton deposed that she too was quite unacquainted
with the prisoner's condition, although they slept together,
nor was she disturbed on the night in question. On
the following day, however, she observed an below
stairs that induced her to 'peak with Mn. Iliad. respecting
them, and subsequently the infant was found as described.
Dr. Granger Tandy, of Spital-square, said the child was
full grown ; • mark was round the neck, apparently pro-
duced by a cord, and the body was covered with cinder
ashes and dust ; there had not been any medical attend-
ance. lie could not at present state if it had been a live
birth.

Holmes, 102 N, stated that he apprehended priaooer at
the Pavilion Theatre, Whitechapel•road. He had searched
the room at Mrs. Slade's, but could not find any child's
clothes.

Mr. Cooke remanded the prisoner, whose excitement was
so great that the evidence could be scarcely heard in
consequence of her loud sobbing and cries of " Oh my poor
mother and child." Bendel!, the gaoler, finally carried her
from the dock insensible.

The English bishops who have not signed the
address to Bishop Cole= are Bishop Thirlwall, of St.
David's; Bishop Davies, of Peterborough ; Bishop Hampden,
of Hereford ; and Dr. Ellicott, the recentlywppointed
bishop of Gloucester and Bristol. The names of two Irish
bishops—Dr. Griffin (Limerick) and Dr. Fitzgerald OCR-
lake) —are also absent.

The Contemporaneo of Madrid, in the last num-
ber which has come to hand, has replaced its first article by
the fallowing lines :—" Fink at nine o'clock this morn-
ing a government agent came and suppremsd three para-
graphs of our leading article. Secondly, at half-past nine
another agent came and prohibited six other paragraphs.
Thirdly, at a quarter to ten a third agent called and sup-
pressed the remainder of the article. This incident is en-
tirely new in the annals of the press. Yet, it is laid Spain
possesses a constitutional government !"
