Mg William Whittaker, an akar of the Metropolitan
Paler, and doing be grievous bodily harm.
Mr. Bodkin end Kr. Clerk prosecuted, end Mr. Lilley
defended.

It appeare el that at about half-pest twelve on the
night of Saturday; the 23rd of August, the prisoners and
some other Irish were creating a disturbance upon Battersea-
bridge, when a man named Morris Gibbons went up to the
prisoner Peter end told him that he had better keep quiet, or
he would get into trouble ; upon which he struck him a vio-
lent blow in the mouth, followed it by another blow, and
then trical to throw him into the water. Whit taker then e tree
up, *teen Morris asked him to take l'eter into custody for
the 'maul', which be refused to do, but told Morrie
he tad better go home, upon which Peter seized him and
struck him a violent Mow, and Simon also struck him,

prismiers most atrottiously maltrvatod him, trying to
strangle him, and mid that if there had not been so many
present they would have killed him and thrown him into the
water. The result was that the poor fellow was so lajured
that he had to be carried into court to give hie evidence,
and it was said that in all probability he would ultimately
rink from the effect of the injuries which had been M-
elded upon him.

THE POLICE COURTS.
(THIS DAY.)

MAMLBOROUUII-STREET.

THIMATILTIINo TO 1101ffitWHIP A COT MTT-COVRT STMT.
William Hayes, • respectable. looking MI man, was
bror.ght before Mr. Besdon, on a warrant, chanting Slot for
that he did threaten to boreewhip ',ramie Bayley, Bag.,
judge of tha Weatrninater County Court, St. Martin claw.
whereby be spyrebinds that be goes la danger of some
bodily harm that be, the mid William Ilayea will do or
mum to be done.

Complainant laid that some 'bort time ago the defendant
woe a plaintiff in a rem before him, and in coneequence of
his creating a disturbance and treating the court with con-
tempt, he was obliged to commit bin. until the tieing of the
court. When the tenet reseed nittiag, the defendant
reused to aim the least apology, notwithstanding
which be ordered him to he discharged. The pri-
soner then entered into convection about a cam
which had recently hewn derided against him, and his
conduct ersa so offensive that he called the offi,ere of the
court to eject him (rum the piece. The defendant then be-
came much excited, and said it wee a question whether he
should not horsewhip him. Thinking he would any his
threats into execution, he adopted the present proceedMp,
and now wished him to be bound over to keep the peace.
The primmer, who appeared to be labouring under great
excitement, made a long rambling statement shout some In-
justice he had received at the handa of the complainant,
which made him very excited, and while he wan In that state
he certainly might have made use of the words imputed to
him by Mr. Bayley, but without the least intention of carry-
ing the duvet into execution. He was a religion. MOB, and
hie Bible told him it wris wrong to merit an injury.
lir. Bead= laid if he wee a rtliginue moo he must have
known hie conduct was highly improper in threatening to
horsewhip the judge of the court. In order to restrain him
for the future he should order him to find two =reties in 201.
each, with himself in 401., to keep the peace for three months.
