He gave information, and the prisoner was arre4od in
Cartwright-place with £1 163 in his pocket, although he
said he had only 62 i. A sovereign was found in a spitoon
at the hotel. Mr. Black defended the prisoner, and con-

FRIGHTFUL ATTEMPT TO MURDER A BLACK. MAN IN
LIVERPOOL—This morning, a young female. named Janet
Wilson, was brought up on a charge of having attempted to
cut the throat of a black man, named William Freeman.
The facts of the case were these. The previous night the
complainant was in Maguire street, speaking to some
females ; the prisoner came and spoke to him, when he said
he did not want to speak with her at all. Some words
passed between them, when the priscntr pulled out a knife,
and made a violent blow at his throat, when he put up his
hand to Faye himself, when the knife came across his band,

and inflicted a serious wound on him. Surgeon Davies,
of the Northern Dispensary, said he dressed the wound,
which was an inch and a half long, and an inch deep. It
was an incised wound, and, at present, he did not apprehend
any dangerous consequences, as incis‘xl wounds did not
generally end in tetanus—lacerated wounds generally did.
In reply to the charge, the prisoner said it was all done
through "61 " She was fully committed for
trial.

(BEFORE MESSRS. AIKIN AND SMITH

DESPERATE ASSAULT.—Mrs. Susan Buckley, the keeper
of a spirit vaults in Collingwood-street, charged a very tall
woman, named Mary Mangan, with having committed a
violent assault on her, by striking her with a stone on the
forehead. It appeared that there was a fight in the street,
when stones, knives, and other "implements" were used
very freely, the prisoner was in the " ruckshin " and acted
as a generaless —for which her stature fitted her. She
flung bricks in all directions, and one coming in contact
with complainant's forehead, inflicted a serious wound.
The surgeon, who dressed the wound, said it was a serious
wound, but he did not think any serious result would
follow. The prisoner was sent to gaol for one month.
COAT STEALING.—EIIen D3olan, who was remanded on
a charge of having stolen two coats. was brought up. Mr.
Bluck defended. Thompson and Scaife, the detectives,
produced Mr. John J. Radford, of 25, Whitechapel, who
identified the garments as his property. Mr. Bluck argued
that the prisoner ought to be dealt with in a summary
manner, as there was no proof of stealing, and therefore the
punishment ought to be for not accounting. The prisoner
was sent for trial.
