Both parties have known each other for some time but
have not spoken to each other for twelve months. Yester-
day he met her, knocked her down, kicked her, blackened
one of her eyes, and bruised her arm and body. He also
hit her on the nose and mouth and caused her to lose a
great deal of blood.
The defendant made a rambling defence, but did not
deny the charge.
Mr. Cooke laid that thin was a most unprovoked and
cowardly ►ttack on the complainant. There was no pos-
sible justification for such conduct, and he sentenced the
defendant to three months' hard labour in the House of
Correction.

MARLBOVOUGH•STREM
THE I,E,PERATE ATTENIPTT SUICIDE.

Re.qaol,b, a bootmaker, living in Little Wind.
mill-street, charged with attempting to take his life by
stabbing himself in the stomach, was again brought before
Mr. Tyrwhitt.
The prisoner was aeon by a fellow lodger stabbing him-
self in the stomach, but was seized by him and prevented
doing further mischief to himself, and taken to the
hospital.
Mr. Osman Vince, house surgeon of the Middlesex Hos.
pital, attended to-day, and said prisoner was admitted
to the hospital on the sth June, having stabbed himself
in the stomach, and he remained there till last Wednes-
day.
Mr. Tyrwhitt asked the witness whether he noticed
anything particular in the prisoner's conduct.
Mr. Vince said he appeared rather strange.
Mr. Tyrwhitt said it was a very awkward thing for a
magistrate to discharge such a man without any friends to
look after him, the mote especially so as he believed he
had already been in an asylum.
The prisoner said he had never been in an asylum.
Mr. Tyrwhitt said it was a clear use of deliberate
attempt to commit suicide.
The prisoner said he bad no friends. He was a native
of Ireland. _

Mr. Tyrwhitt said if he discharged the prisoner and he
deAroyed himself, it would be laid at his door. He would
again remand the prisoner, and he hoped if publicity was
given to the matter, that some of his friends would come
forward and take care of him.
