;Yantis Brans tudias7sed,ll;;lie, were placed at the
lisr, charged with begging end making nee of abusive
leaisorgan, of 1, Crawford-street, pianoforte maker,eald the
sole prisoner entered his shop the previous night for the pur-
pose of begging. He requested him to leave, and ea be would
not be went round the counter for the wpms of turning
him out, when he stood just within the door, sod made use of
most aburive language towards him, end then left, the
woman at this time taking hold of the handle of the door, so
that he should not go after her confederate.
Estwell, 286 D, said that, knowing the pudgiest* to be
old hands at begging, be watched them, sad witnereedl their
conduct, so do.cribed by the last whams. He alio saw
the woman go up to a lady in the street, who gave her scene-
thing, after which be took both Is charge.
The man, in answer to Yr. Long, said be merely went to
est for alms, sad the woman said she only weal to shot the

Kr. Long add be bad eons doubt about the act of parlia-
ment in its bearing on this as, as it did not may anything
about begging la shops. He should let them go this time,
sod they bad better be careful that they were not brought
there for they bed bed lneky escape this time.

M AR LBOROUGH- ST REST.
Sarah Para., an elderly women, was charged with se-
riously injuring a young woman named Caroline Lawton,
under the following Girt-ornateness :
The pec.secutni, whose face was enveloped in a surgical
bandage, and who seemed in great pain, said that on the pre-
vious night she was crossing Rarl-etreet, Soho, when she
suddenly felt herself struck In the face In a violent manner,
causing her to fall Into the road sad to be insensible for a few
minutes. On reooming her senses she felt harems pain
&hoot her nose, aid the blood was pouring from It profusely.
She then found that she bad been struck by a stone or large
piece of brick. She was taker—to • surgeon's, who
deemed the wound, but the hemorrhage not awing,
some hours afterwards she was tak'n to King's Col-
lege Hospital, where It wee found that her noes wee com-
pletely slit open, end It we. sewn up. She believed that it
wee not broken, however.
The prisoner said a parcel of boys had been annoying bee
sad stealing apples from her stall, when she went after them,
and of coarse threw the brick at them, but she did not mean
to hurt the promentrix.
The gement/in said she sew nothing of the boys.
A female, named Hamm, said she sew • boy running
round the corner of Erni-stenst, and saw the prisoner, who
was in a great perien, throw • plea of brick in the direction
at one of the boys, bat It went nowhere near him, it being
thrown almost at random.

The peieaaer was remanded, to see **result of the prose-
tuttrtes injury.
Mr. Biggs, Charles-strut, was summoned before Mr.
Beadce, fur ea alleged infraction of the New Budding Act.
Mr. Jennings, district surveyor of Marylebone, appeared
is support of the preomdinp; and Mr. Touring, architect,
wu for the defendant.
It appeared that the defendant has thrown a skylight over
the yard at the back of the house, shutting in the place up
to the first door, but leaving ample sum for ventilation from
the skylight. The 29th section of the Building Act require'
a certain ewe to be left clear for light and air, and it was
extended that covering over the yard, even though the*
wu no deiciency of light or ventilation, wu in oontravention
ef the act.

Mr. Jennings proved that at the beck of the hones in
question there wea no open epics as required by the act.
Mr. Tarring contended that inasmuch aa there was ample
provision made for light and air, the act had prectically been
complied with. Ile could bring several eminent district sena
mom to prove that what the defendant bad done was con-
stantly permitted.
Mr. Bandon said if he found that opinions and practices of
eminent surveyors were sot horse out by the words of the
act of parliament he meet pet them on one side as havtag
no bearing on the legal questios.
Mr. Jennings would be glad to have mousers opinion on
the point at Irene, which was an important one.
After a good deal of Winkel discussion and several
an=to arrive at a memos understandiag as to lb.
and 'Blot of various alums of the act, which WY
modwuned on all sides as contradiolory and confused,
Mr. Beadon said he would take till neat Monday to con-
sider his judgment.
