residing in the same neighbourhood.
The complainant, whose forehead was covered with adhe-
sive plaster, and who bad several cuts about the face, said
that on Saturday night she was in Redcroes-court with
another female. They were insulted by the prisoner's wife.
She turned round to remonstrate with her, when the pri-

WORSHIP-STREET.
PORGIBT.

Genrve Rend, 31, described as an artificial florist, at 44,
Beech-street, City. was charged before Mr. Leigh with ob-
taining from Mr.reorge Demon, of Eagle-street, City-road,
a large quantity of glass beads value 501. 135., by means
of a forged cheque.
Mr. Beard defended the prisoner.
The prosecutor said that on the 30th of August last be
sold the prisoner the property mentioned, and received in
payment &cheque for 4W. 135., purporting to be drawn by
Alexander Winer upon the London and Westminster Bank.
OD the Ist of September he presented it, and it was re-
turned to him marked " no account."

Cross-examined by Mr. Beard—Prisoner did not ask me
not to present the cheque immediately, nor have I received
any letter to that effect. Have known the prisoner four
years, and have had business taaneactions with him, one of
which was for 1501. I received the cheque in question as
part payment of the dealing for the beads.
By the Court—l have been told by Mr. Winer that pri-
weer did not receive the cheque from him.
By Mr. Beard—Mr. Winer is not here, and I have no
proof that he raid this.
Mr. Thomas Tomlinson Gill, nailer of the Southwark
branch of the London and Westminster Bank, in Welling-
ton-street, Southwark, proved the presentation of the cheque,
and that not any account was kept there by Mr. Winer ; he
so marked it.

Manbridge, 145 NZ, proved having apprehended the pri-
soner at Hai!sham, 311 Sussex, on Saturday last, on this
charge. On bearing the charge prisoner asked if any
one else was in custody upon it ; and the reply
being in the negative, he added, "If the prosecutor
follows up this charge I @boll get four years." Mr. Winer
told me this morning that he paid the prisoner in hard cash
for the beads ; prisoner also told me while coming to Lon-
don in the train that lie did not write upon the cheque, but
forged it to Mr. Damon.
Mr. Beard observed that such a string of words was
simply ridiculous and totally without meaning. Prose-
cutor had manifestly been too hasty in preferring this
charge, and not any evidence was before the court to bring
the prisoner within the pale of the criminal law.
Mr. Leigh said that he should assuredly remancl the pri-
soner, and refused buiL

would prove this assault.

and corroborated Batson sod Beeson. They also saw
the assault upon the injured man, Cornelius Bryan, whom

that ha took the part of his son, whom they were kicking.

he's not dope anything," upon which Moore instantly knocked

rendering him insensible. A man picked him up and

ilra.tged her father along the passage by the hair of his
bead, and kicked him again. Efe was now lying very ill

Tee MOTHER OF Watna.—The Cork Examiner
states that them Aker of Walsh, the recently executed con-
vict, displayed throughout the whole history of this terrible
drama the most touching affection fur her guilty son. lharing
the time that he was in biding she acted as a keen and clever
scout, and it was chiefly through her watchfulness that he was
so long able to evade the puronit of justice. When she found
that all her off arta were useless and that Walsh was captured,
she strove to have him accepted as an approver. On the
day of his sentence it was a terrible sight to watch her for
a whole day pacing to and fro before the court-house, mono-
tonously repeating, in a low moving tone, "My son, my
son." Even after that she did not quite abandon hope.
conceiving that the revelations it was known he made would
save his life. When this hope proved fallacious her reason
utterly gave way. She was taken to the workhouse a raging
lunatic, and has been removed to the asylum of the county
of Limerick hopeleasly insane. The Fitzgerald murder,
the E sat aer adds, is likely to prove no ordinary tragedy.
Two roes have perished upon the scaffold, the mother
of one has become a maniac, and two more have yet to be
tried for then liven
