of the prisoners throwing stones iti Islington yesterday
afternoon. He and some of his companions struck some of
the passers-bye. This nuisance has got to such an extent,
gases of boys and youths infesting the neighbourhood, that
it has become necessary to employ men, especially of a
&today, to protect the shutters of the shops, and also
respectable persons that might be puling.
prisoems said that they did throw stones; but they
did so because other boys threw at them.
A gentleman belonging to • deputation said it hel
hese deemed necessary for the tradesmen to form iL, n.
selves into an association to protect themselves against the
gawp of boys that infested the Upper-street, not only of s
Sunday bat every night in the week. Some time saes
they attended before the magistrate and complained d
some boys who had assaulted sane females, and they ems
punished. That put an end to the nuisance for some time,
but it had now got to such • bead that it was necessary, to
again come forward and complain.

his power to put a stop to, and toed the &leo& tits 14.
