MIDDLESEX SESSIONS.

HICKS'S HALL--CLERSINIVSLL, JAIL 14.

Mr. MAINWAILING in resumed the Chair,
and a greater than usual attendance of Justices
upon the Bench took place this day. The busi-
ness before the Court, however, WS. not of a na-
ture that could prove of general interest to the
public. They were entirely occupied in hearing
pansh appeals, relative to the toaintentutee of
paupers. To-morrow the trials for offences will be

POLICE.

On Wednesday evening, between six and seven
o'clock, as Mr. Thomas Olthield, a cow-keeper,
who resides in Islington Fields, a short distance
from White Conduit-house, was returning home
along the foot-path, he was met bye soldier, who
called out to him to stop. Mr. Oldfield said,
" I suppose you want my money t" He replied, •
" Yes, deliver." Mr. Oldfield put his left hand
into his pocket, tails out* sixpence and a penny,
and while he was in the act of delivering it,-he
give the soldier a *lent blow with his right head,
which knocked hint backwards ; a violent scuffle
ensued, in which Mr. Oldlield succeeded in wrest-
ing his bayonet fromliiin.

voices being heard, the soldier extricated himself
from Mr. Ohlfield, and ran off, leaving his great
coat behifid him. Mr. Oldfield found Cox and

TRIALS BEFORE THE RECORDER.

tanADAY, jaw. 7.
Mr. Gusts moved the Court for a confirma-
tion of certain /nib and regulations respecting a
Friendly Society, established under the authority
of an Act of Parliament, the 36th of tbc King—
He conceived, while the Insurrection Act had ope-
ration that it was an implied repeal of this Statute,
hut though a similar bill had passed the Legis-
lature last Sessions, yet as the metropolis was not a
proclaimed district, that the Act war in full force,
aid only warlisi the revision of the Recorder re-
, *pectin the itsgulalliess.
His Lordshi mid, these rules were too volumi-
nous for we attention to them on Ina part,
and he felt authorised tome that they hod violently
deviated from the letter and spirit of the Act, par-
ticularly in the circumstance of burying the deed.
The Act was evidently passed for the relief and ac-
commodation of the living, and not of the dead.
Mr. .M4NALLY prefaced a similar motion from a
Society called that of St. John'a, with a Srripture
quotation prefixed to their regulations—A" Let the
deed here the dead."
The lieconeea was still of the same opinion,
but consented that Mr. Greene should receive the
rules which he had tendered, and after expunging
those passages winch were not conformable to the
Act of Parliament, he would revise the remainder,
and give them such selection as the law required.
