THE POLICE COURTS.

BOW•STREET.

-
Patrick Cunningham was brought up on remand before
Mr. Vaughan, on the charge of firing a pistol ball through
the window of Mr. Reardon's shop in Church-lane.
Mr. Serie, the superintendent of the E division of police,
said, from inquiries he bad made he believed that the
firing of the pistol was accidental, and that it was done by
a young man who was now in attendance, and willing to
give evidence.
John Fiudeu, a youth apparently about 10 or 20 years of
age, said he lived in Church-lane, and was a shoeblack. He
knew the prisoner, whom be met at about one o'clock on
"Saturday night" (Sunday morning) opposite Reardon's
shop. Cunningham, addressing him by a nickname he is
known by, said, " Ratty, here is a pistol I found in Broad-
street." Witness asked to see it, and Cunningham handed
it to him. While he was examining it it went off by 'Axi-
-1 dent.

Mr. Vaughan asked whether Reardon believed this state-
ment!

Reunion replied that be had no reason to doubt it. He
knew both the young men, and did not believe that either
of them would wilfully injure him.
Mr. Vaughan said he, too, thought it probable that the
statement was true, and he should, therefore, discharge
the prisoner. It ought to be a warning to him and the
witness, and indeed to all other persons, against carrying fire-
arms. It was fortunate that no person was killed. One or
both of them might have had to meet a charge of man-
slaughter.
Mr. Serie said the place where Cunningham said he found
the pistol was near where Groves was arrested.
Mr. Vaughan said it had better be detained for the
present.

Michael Burke, aged 35, of 2, Russell-place, Ceram-street,
• labourer, was charged with being drunk and disorderly,
at the Clerkenweil Police-court, and also wilfully tearing
the uniform tunic and damaging the helmet of Police-con-
stable Hugh Brydgee, 154 G, one of the warrant officers of
the court, at the same time and place.
On Monday afternoon, the defendant, who was very
drunk and covered with mud, was in the passage of the court
making • disturbance, and when asked to go away he
refused. The constable told him that if he wanted to see
the magistrate he had better come in the morning, on
which the prisoner kicked at him ins most violent manner,
and wilfully tore the constable's oust and broke his helmet.
The damage done to them amounted to U. Is. The de-
fendant was known to the police as • violent, disorderly
fellow, and he had been several times in custody.
The defendant, in reply to the charge, said he was
sorry for what had occurred, and hoped that the magis-
trate would let him off on account of his wife and family.
Mr. Barker said that such disgraceful conduct could not
be looked over, and sentenced him to pay It. le., the
damage done, and 10e. penalty, or, in default of payment,
twenty-one days' hard labour in the House of Correction.
The defendant was locked up in default.
Thomas Wade, • drover, badge N0.1,403,wia summoned,
at the instance of Mr. Rumsey Forster, for unlawfully
beating a sheep ; and also for not wearing his badge in •
conspicuous manner on the left arm.
The complainant said he was riding in • cab by Coldbath-
fields, when he saw the defendant strike • sheep • violent
blow on the head and on the leg by the hock. He spoke
to the defendant, and asked him for the number of his
badge, but he put his hand over it, and would not give him
the number. He again got into his cab, and was driven at
• walking pees as far as Blackfriare-bridge before he could
see • constable, and get the defendant's number. The sheep
was quite lame after the defendant bad struck it.
By Mr. Barker—The sheep did not run away from the
drover, but was hurrying towards some other sheep.
The defendant said he was driving sic lambs to catch •
drover that was ahead of him, and all he did was to strike
one of the lambs to make it go faster. The complainant
did not ask for the number of his badge.
Mr. Barker said no gentleman would take the trouble to
get out of his cab to get • drover's number if he was not
doing wrong, and then drive at a walking pace a great
distance to get his number. He had not the slightest
doubt in his mind that the defendant did strike the sheep,
and unnecessarily so, and for that he should fine him 205.,
or in default of payment be would be imprisoned in the
House of Correction for 14 days with hard labour, and for
refusing to show the badge he fined the defendant 10e.,
or in default to be further imprisoned for seven days. He
would further have to pay the coda.
The defendant was locked up in default.
WESTMINSTER.
Mr. Wilson Agee, of 13, St. Otago's-villas, Canonbury,
was brought before Mr. Arnold charged with neglecting to
maintrin Amelia his wife, and Soles his daughter, whereby
theChelsea.y had become chargeable to the parish of St. Luke,

In order to prove the defendant's liability, Mrs. Jelly,
the wife of a butcher, at 22, Church-street, Chelsea, was
called. She said that Mrs. Ager came to her in 1865 ea a
lodger. Defendant introduced her as his wife, and came
constantly to see her, and paid for lodging and food which
she and her daughter Lad.
In cross-catennation by Mr. George Lewis, who appeared
for the defendant, witnem said that defendant never slept
in her house. Mrs. Ager left in July, 1866, but on her re-
turn from Paris on Tuesday week came to her house again.
Defendant refused last week to maintain her any longer.
Defendant was arrested on witness's claim for her
board and lodging, on Mrs. Ager's information
that he was about to leave the country for America, and
he paid the money. Witness was still supplying her with
food, but had recommended her to go to the p .rish. Had
given her similar advice in 1866. Last Wednesday defend.
ant gave her notice that be would no longer be responsible
for Mrs. Ager's maintenance.
Mr. Lewis asked how she could be chargeable to the
parish, when it was clearly shown that she was being
maintained by Mrs. Jelly.
Mr. Hughes, the relieving ofiloer—l have supplied her
with outdoor relief.

Mr. Lewis—These proceedings have been taken to try an
abstruse question of American marriage.
Mr. Lewis complained in the strongest terms of an in-
formation having been exhibited on oath by the relieving
officer at this court, alleging that his client was about to
leave the oountryt and his being apprehended on a warrant
on the previous night, taken while very ill from his home,
and locked up on a charge like the present. He repeated,
that after what had been heard, how could she be &emed
chargeable to the pariah?
Mr. Arnold—lt ia a most monstrous proceeding on the
part of the parish.
Mr. Lewis—Mrs. Jelly, you say she is dining at your
table.

Mrs Jelly—Yee, sir.
Mr. Lewis—Did she dine there yesterday?
Mn. Jelly—Yes, air; and we had some of the bread
she brought from the parish.
Mr. Lewis—Then you have been maintained by the
pariah as well as she!
Mrs. Jelly—l merely had some of it to Mate it.
Mr. Hughes, the relieving officer, was then examined on
oath, and said that Mrs. Ager applied to him on Monday
morning for relief, and he gave her a loaf of bread. She
said she was destitute. and had not a shilling. He made
inquiries before he relieved her. He saw three or four
persons, and had every reason to believe she was destitute.
Mrs. Jelly told him she had taken Mrs. Ager in, and could
not afford to keep her. Witness said he would give her
an order for the house. Re gave her a loaf of bread as
temporary relief.
Mr. Lewis—You gave her a loaf of bread, and then im-
mediately came here and took out this warrant upon
which this gentleman was taken into custody.
Mr. Arnold—l will say that a grosser perversion of the
administration of the Poor-l►w was never made.

Mr. Lewis—They took my client from a sick bed. There
was not the slightest pretext for saying he was about to
leave the country.
Mr. Hughes admitted that it was upon Mrs. Agar's in-
formation that he had founded his presumption that de-
fondant was about to leave the country.
Mr. Arnold remarked that the fact of swearing that the
woman was chargeable to the parish was closely verging
on perjury. He would not for a moment longer entertain
such a case, and defendant was discharged.
Mr. Lewis said that Mrs. Ager was not legally entitled
to call herself defendant's wife.
SOUTHWARK.
David Stewart, 34,was placed at the bar for final exami-
nation, charged with stealing 32 plated forks and spoons
from the Roebuck Tavern, Great Dover-road, also two
brooches, a pair of sheets, and a towel from the Kent and
Sussex Chop-house, Duke-street, London-bridge.
It rppeared from the evidence of Mr. Robert Jackson,
the proprietor of the latter house, that on Saturday
afternoon, the 28th ult., be saw the prisoner rush
out of the private entrance in rather a hurried
manner, and, perceiving that he bad something balky
about him, he ran after him, and brought him back,
when he asked what he had in his pocket. He re-
plied that be had nothing; but witness put his hands
into his pockets, and brought out 32 plated forks and
spoons, which had the appearance of having been stolen
from some hotel. Ho then called in • constable, and on
further searching him they found two brooches belonging
to his servants, and a pair of sheets and a towel wound
about his body. Mr. Jackson added that the prisoner
must have entered one of the adjoining offices, and got
on the roof walked along, and then got in by his attic
window, which was left open.
Mrs. Elizabeth Larks, the wife of the proprietor of the
Roebuck Tavern, in the Dover-road, said that on Saturday
forenoon, the 28th ultimo, between 10 and 11 o'clock,
she saw the prisoner in front of the bar. At that time the
spoons and forks produced were safe in the plate-basket on
the dresser in the kitchen. About half an hour afterwards
she returned to the bar, when the prisoner had left. She
had occasion to go into the kitchen immediately after-
wards, when she missed the spoons and forks.
The prisoner pleaded guilty to both charges, and said
that he committed the robberies through distress.
The magistrate asked if the prisoner had been previously
convicted.

Police•eonetable 31 M replied that he bad made inquiries
mid could not asomiaia whether he had or not. He
believed he had for similar robb.-ries.

The magistrate sentenced him to four mouths' hard
Labour.
