THE LATE CASE OP BURNING THE EFFIGY OP A MAN.-
FURTHER ANNOYANCE.

Jahn Mayall, ostler at the Gardeners' A.ms, Chatham-
road, Wandswor.h, who was fined 405., and 10s. costs, a
few days a7o, fo: being concerned in annoying Mr. Henri
James Roebottom, a pianoforte maker, living in the seine
road, awl burnins his effigy; John Donn, potinan at the
same house ; and Hear! Oliver, were summoned by the
same person for further annoyance.
Mr. It. Hattie (instructed by Mr. Haynes) appeared for
the complainant. The prisoner, were undefended.
The ease was as follows. Late on Sunday night, the 24th
ult., the complainant, who had been in bed a short time,
beard a noi'.e of the breaking of his fence. When he got to
the door the defendants Dunn and Oliver came up, at-
tempted to strike him, and called him a false swearer. On
the Sunday afternoon Restall, who had been fined 408. in the
same case, read aloud in the street near the compainant's
house a repot of the case, at the same time commenting
on Mr. Day man's decision. Mayall, who in the former
case was designated as " King John," laughed, and on
seein7, the complainant he called him a false swearer,
held up his fist, and said he should like to give him
the law with his "bunch of fives" on the common
for half an hour. It also appeared that • man named
Harris, who was one of Mr. Roebottom's witnesses, watched
the complainant's house on the Saturday night at his
request, as he was in fear of an outrage, and he saw
Dunn's brother break the fence. The Dunn. with Oliver
and two other persons were near the house. Harris heard
Oliver say, " Let us break Squatter's fence down,"referring
to the complainant's property. The defendant Dunn said,
" You'll have to do it and run." After the fence was
broken Harts came up, and he was called a false swearer.
The defendants denied the charge, and said the com-
plainant interfered with them.
Mr. Ingham fined Mayan, who said his name was Farn-
ham, 40s. and 10s. costs, end in default ordered him to be
imp:soiled for one month. He also fined Dunn 40s. and
2s. cosh, a ith the alternative of one month's imprison-
ment. Oliver, he thought, had been led into the affair
like a foolish boy, and he fined him 10.. and 2a. cuts, and
in default to be imprisoned for seven days.
On the applic,Aion of Mr. Harris a was rant wu granted
for the apprehension of Dunn's brother.

ANOTHER CONFGHIT BETWEEN ENGLISH AND
FOREIGN NAVVlES.—Yesterday morning a special Dies-
senger arrived at Lewes from East Grinstead with intelli-
gence to Lieutenant-Colonel Mackay that another conflict
of a serious character had taken place between the Eng-
lish and foreign navvies employed on the East
Grinstead and Grooniebridge railway, that another
fight was hourly expected, that the navvies were
about to be reinforced, and that the whole police-
force in the neighbourhood was totally inadequate
to quell the disturbance. Col. Mackay at once gathered
ail the men at his disposal in Lewes, and started by train ,
to East Grinstead, and thence to the locality where the riot
took place. It appears that great jealousy has for some
time existed between the English and foreign navvies
employed on the railway in question, in consequence of
the latter working for less money than the English will
work for. On Saturday night a dispute arose at Black-
ham-common, between Cowden and Ashurst, on the
borders of Sussex, and a fight took place, knives and
sticks be;ng, it is alleged, freely need, in the course of
which two Englishmen were seriously injured. The
police were soon on the spot, and succeeded in apprehend-
ing three foreigners, and in somewhat quelling the riot.
On Sunday night an attack was made by the English,
armed with bludgeons, upon the huts occupied by the
foreigners, whom they drove out. They then dispersed.
It was folly expected yesterday from thraits and admit.
sions made, that other leaving to the number of 200
would march from Markbeech and assist their comrades in
finally driving out the foreigners from the neighbour-
hood.—Servey Standard of to-day.
SEiZunD OF ARMS IN DußLlN.—Detective-officer
Smollen brought before Mr. O'Donnell, at Capel-street
Police-court yesterday, a person named Smith, who was
described as a broker, carrying on business at 28, Little
Dlary-street, on a charge of being in the illegal possession
of four revolvers and a bullet-mould. Mr. Charles Fitz-
gerald, jun., appeared for the prisoner. Smollen said that
from information be received during the past week
he was induced, in concert with Detective-officers
Hughes and Dawson, to institute a search in the
stores of a respectable firm in Lower Abbey-street
for arms, which it was stated were concealed there. The
search resulted in the discovery of three Colt's revolvers
of superior quality. On making inquiries at Mrs. Bane's
shop in Capel-street, where severalrevolverswere exhibited
for sale, it was ascertained that the prisoner had sold some
of them. His house wan then searched , and the four new
revolvers and the bullet-mould now produced were found.
The prisoner declined to state how he pt them. Swollen
nand that it was his belief that large quantities of these
weapons had been introduced quite recently into the city,
and that the prisoner was an agent for the introduction and
sale of them. Coder these circumstances he asked for a
I remand to enable further inquiries to be made. Mr.
O'Donnell remanded the prisoner.—Debtin Brewing Mail.
