(defendant's wife) found some live eeenteres (vermin) on the
children, and discharged her laundress ; then on Sunday
found out it was Hannah dames who was dirty, for she saw
the things on her person, and told Mr. Byrne, who wiled
Hannah down and told her about it. It was at half Idiot
11 o'clock, and she denied it, and then be " hit her serum
the hand." I was in the rune rum, end don't think he
hurt her much, but she screamed out—this was because she
told a story.
After some further evidence,
A respectable woman stepped forward, and 0400 into
the box, said the defendant previously had raided la her
house in Sherrardatreet, and there the same OH was con-
tinually being beaten frightfully with saucepans, shovels,
and all sorts of things, and that for three nsonths. The
defendant's treatment to her was shameful in the extreme.
Mr. Lewis, for the defendant, mid the defendant was
some time ago in Wales, met with the parents of the girl,
out agreed with them to receive her in London as a ser-
vant. Her habits had been found to be uncleanly, and he
had been compelled to communicate the fact to her father,
hence the reply which had been put in. These habits being
now found incurable he had sent her with some Ingpge
home to her parents again.
Mr. Tyrwhitt—l shall adjourn the case till next Thurs-
day week, allowing time for the appearanoe of the girl ; if
adequate compensation for the assault in the judgment of
the parents and the girl's friends is not sooner made, and I
shall
require the defendant to find bail for his re-appeez-
*nee to the charge.

Sir Charles Douglas, Y.P. for Banbury attended at this
court to prosecute a complaint against William Davis, a
cab driver, for neglecting to deliver to him a ticket.
Defendant pleaded guilty.
Sir Charles said that on the evening of the 31st ult. he
hired defendant in Piccadilly, opposite St. Jamee's Church,
andwasdriven to Hanover-square, thence toDuke-street and
the Howe of Commons, where upon alighting he placed
Is. 6d. on the roof of the cab in payment of the fare. De-
fondant followed him and said that was not sufficient, as he
had driven more than two miles, and was entitled to some-
thing for time, as be had waited for him more than
fifteen minutes. Complainant denied this, when de-
fendant demanded hie card. Complainant did not com-
ply with the request, but said he must trouble defendant
for hie !Loire*, Imkoreupoe defoneleaM handed hire wem
ceedingly dirty one. In order to guard himself against any
trickery on the part of the cabman, Sir Charles compared
the ticket given him by defendant with the number on the
cab, when he found they did not correspond. Having taken
the number from the cab, Sir Charles held some silver out
to defendant, and told him to take his fare, upon which de-
fendant observed, " I don't want your money, now, and
and
drove off. Sir Charles begged to swore the magistrate that
he had instituted this complaint entirely upon public
grounds as but for his comparing the ticket with the num-
ber on the cab, the person to whom the ticket related might
have been put to serious inconvenience.
Defendant in reply to the charge said that he was a pro-
prietor, and the ticket he had given related to his own cab,
although not the one in which complainant rode ; that he
was about to purchase it of a man named Long, and bad it
out for a day's trial when he took the complainant ; he never
thought of asking Long for a ticket relating to his cab, as he
was not asked for a ticket once a month.

Mr. Arnold observed that he also had a duty to the public
to perform ; the very object of these tickets was to secure a
facility to the public of proceeding with any complaint
against the driver, and taking- defendant's own statement to
be correct he had acted with gross carelessness.
Defendant was then fined 10a. and costa.
