His Honour said that the bankrupt ought to have taken
sieve for a rateable distribution of the assets which he poi-
fe`:•ed. It was an unfair thing that one creditor should
receive pnroont in full to the prejudice of the others, and
the cirermrtance that the detaining creditor hat charged
a high rate of interact did not justify the bankrupt in run-
ning into debt. The application must stand adjourned
until after the meeting for choice of assignees.
The bankrupt appealed to the detaining creditor to re-
hear Ic nr, but ho declined to do so, stating his belief that
there was property behind of which no account had been
given.

POLICE COURTS:-(Ttilii DAY.)

OLERIEENWELL.
OHM 1110LEOP OP PPM OPPILIMIN.

Llm Ncere, a dissipated-looking woman? residing at 4,
C;ty-gaiden-row, Islington, wascluirged with being drunk
and sstaulting Mrs. Louisa Scope.
Mr. Motum, secietary of the Society for the Protec-
tion of Wunun and Children, Haymarket, watched the
case on behalf of that eocieV.
The assault was committed in consequence of the com-
plainant. who resides in the same house as the defendant,
taking the defendant's infant off the floor when it was
in on apparently dying state, and saying she would
take Taw 4* the workhouse. ii---dmt, who was
very mtch the worse foe liquor, ease into the room, and
hit the defendant in the face, blackening one of her eyes.
The police were sent for, and took the defendant into
custody i but, owing to a mob of women assembling and
threattning vengeance on the defendant for neglecting
her children and starving them, Inspector Taylor, N di-
vision, had to send a body of police to remove her to the
police-station. On Inspector -Taylor's going back to the
house, he found five children in the defendant's room,
covered with vermin, and in a state of starvation. They
were removed to the workhouse, and after having been
cleaned and fed, they were weighed, and the results were
as follows: Henry, aged 9, 371bs. ; Charlotte, aged 6,
271 be. ; Margaret, aged 3, 20Ibs. ; Joseph, aged 2, 161bs. ;
and Edmund, aged 9 months, 9flbs. The neighbours who
attended at the police court gave the mother &moat dread-
ful character, saying that in addition to beating her
children and nearly starving them, she was in the constant
habit of getting intoxicated, and was the terror of the
neighbourhood.
li.r. Lester said that the husband of the defendant had
bad to leave her through her drunken habits, and allowed
her 17s. a week for the support of her family and herself.
The defendant, who treated the matter with the
greatest indifference, said that she could not support her-
self and her children on the money that she was allowed.
One of her children brought her half-a-crown a week,
and another a shilling, but what was that when her
husband only glowed her 175., and she bad had to pay
3e. 3d. per week as rent.
Inspector Taylor, N division, said that when the de-
fendant was taken into custody the brokers were in her
apartments for arrears of rent. He then banded to the
magistrate the following certificate.—" I hereby certify
that Edmund Moore, aged nine months, has in my opi-
nion been neglected, and not properly nourished, he only
weighing 9/lbs.—J. B Ens, M.D., Medical Officer, Lang-
ton, Sept. 2, 1868."—The husband, he understood, was a
hard-working, industrious man.
The husband of the defendant, a respectable working
man, here stepped forward and said he was prepared to
take his children, if he was allowed to do so. He could
not live with his wife, as she was an habitual drunkard,
and even sold the children's things for the purpose of get-
ting drink.
The Magistrate said that the husband was to blame for
allowing the wife, whom be knew to be a drunkard, to
pretend to take care of the children. He appeared to be
well nourished, as did the woman herself;- but the poor
children were evidently starved. Both the husband and
the wife were liable, and if convicted would be severely
punished.
The husband of the defendant said he would take his
children and look after them. He only earned 11. per
week, of which he allowed 17s. to his wife for the support
of his family.
The Magistrate (Mr. Cooke) said that he had on this
occasion only to deal with the assault, which he considered
very unprovoked, and ordered the defendant to pay a fine
of 215., or in default to be imprisoned and kept to bard
labour in the House of Correction for one month.
The defendant was hissed as she left the court.
