CENTRAL CRIMINAL COURT.

TIIIS DAY.

OLD COVRT.—Dvroat Ms. Immo Taxman.
COASOE UT MANSLAVOUTTII AGAINST A POLIC

Benjamin Cole, a city police-constable, surrendered to '
take hi. trial upon an indictment charging him with the
manslaughter of William Cogan.
Mr. Ryland, Mr. Locke, and Mr. Ferry were counsel for
the prosecution. Sergeant Wilkins, Mr. Clarkson, and Mr.
ballantine defended the prisoner.
The facts connected with this charge have been
liven very recently and at great length in the po-
lies reports. It will he remembered that the pri-
soner, while on duty in a placed called Plamtne•
wart, in the City, was represented to have made use
of such violence towards the deceased as to cause
his death. The coroner's jury which sat upon the body
returned • verdict completely exonerating the prisoner;
but, in consequence of rumours and reports that were after-
wards circulated, the magistracy of the City took up the
and as the result the prisoner was committed upon
the present charge.
The evidence in support of the indictment was of a very
unsatisfactory character ; (or, although several of the
*artisan swore positively that the prisoner had as-
saulted the deceased in a violent manner with
his staff, yet they contradicted each other in many
matetial pasticulars, and many of them appeared to be very
bad characters ; and it was evident that they were actuated
by a strong feeling of animosity towards the police, and it
appeared to be very doubtful from what transpired in the
course of the ease, whether supposing that sap
violence had in point of fret been committed upon the de-
ceased, the prisoner was the pence who committed that
violence. It also appeared to he left in some doubt whe-
thee the alleged violence was, in point of fact, the cause of
death.
