A TRIP TO Al'AltoATE.—Saturday, a tall and rather aulterard
'oohing young mac, evidently one of the class of mortals theft
struigTe against nature to appear genteel, was planed before the
sitting Magistrate, charged with using certain abusive and most
unjustifiable language to a young lady, named Emilia
and with employing arguments even of* more " strikingliy3=.
character to the personal inconvenience of a young gentleman
named Allonson, who championed the fair lady on the above-
mentioned occasion, and chivairoittly endeavoured to shield her
from the rude wagging of the tongee
%Viten placed at the bar, the clerk, in the ordinary routine of
business, demanded the culprit); name, to which the latter replied,
with a stifrand most inaegsnt attempt at sang froid—"3ly name,.
do you say ?" Yes," rejoined the queriat. Then I shan't tell
you my name," continued the tall gentleman, apparently delighted
by the opportunity thus afforded of defeating the course of proceed-
ing : but this defect was wen remedied, by the 31agisirate ob-
' serving, "it makes no matter for his name, if he don't think proper
to tell it; it will perhaps be sufficient to learn what are his or•mees
--perhaps they have made him ashamed of his name." "Never.
Sir," vociferated the stripling. " Mr. Sutherland is my name ;"
and he drew himself up to hit full sizi, as the clerk set down
" Sutherland," but without the " Mister ;" and ultimately the de-
ficiency of nomenclature was filled up from a card produced for
the purpose; and them he stood, plain, and unadorned by tide,
" Henry James Sutherland."
Alias Burroughs, sh extremely interesting young lady, acme,.
panied by an eluerly gentleman, her uncle, together with Mr.
Allonson, the young protector already mentioned, then
forward ; and the old gentleman having made his bow, 8..=
follows:—" f am, please your Worship, uncle and guard's, SO

about a month beck. During our stay there, this person

the young ladies of my family, either at the library or am 1114
promenade, and, as I am, informed, once or twice at the Mdgemill
some respectable familids, where he contrived to get'
by possessing a fund of assurance, and being enabled to wU
them with an article most acceptable at a watering place—the latest
news from town—of which he had always a large stock on hand.
You will please, Sir (continued the speaker, addressing the Alai
gistrato, to excuse the tedious prolixity of an old man ; but I am
thus particular, because I am anxious to pourtray in ha true
colours a character that has become quite obnoxious to society—
that of a nameless, needy adventurer."
The Captain's eyes flashed Are, as he roared out, " That's
false, Mr. /Monson ; you will do well to take care what you
say."
The old gentleman, however, did not appear in the least
intimidated, as he replied, " His own conduct justifies the mast-
hon. This youug lady (pointing to Miss Burroughs) was be-
queathed a fortune, and this self.dubbed Captain became its ad-
mirer. In short, Sir, his civility became so oppressive to the young
lady and to her cousins, my daughters, that we were actually ob-
liged to quit the place much earlier than we should otherwise have
done. But we did not by this means get rid of the annoyance; for
soon after Miss Burroughs returned to London, she was met by her
persecutor in Leicester-square, when he again attempted to force
himself upon her, and had the insolence. though repeatedly and
pointedly torbidden, to follow her home to my apartments in the
Haymarket ; this was on Tuesday. The next day he celled, and
left his card with my servant, as he said, ` to be given into Miss
Burrough's own hand ;' and this morning he repeated his visit,
just as Mho B. was going out, when I understand he made use of
some very unhandsome remarks, which Induced het to call her cou-
sin, this young gentleman, to her relief; and they, 1 presume, had
some blows, as I found my son bleeding at the mouth whet I came
down stairs, and the young lady fainting in the parlour. Mr. Su-
therland, if thnt be his name, was also in the passage, end affected
to be in a terrible passion ; winch, however, soon subsided em being
introduced to a constable that was called in for the purpose."
Miss Burroughs, who appeared most painfully agitated during
this recital, corroborated the whole statement, and declared tbatshe
hid never given the gentleman the slightest encouragement, but
that, on the contrary, she considered his attentions very disagree-
able ; and added, that the language he had made use of in the
morning was such as no person could bear, and which alone bad
induced her to call for the interference of her cousin.
Mr. Allonson, the younger, stated, that when he came downs
'taint, he found a strange man (the prisoner) in high words with
his cousin, Miss 8., and when lie desired him to leave the house,
Sutherland struck him in the face, and told him if he required satis-
faction to follow him out, which he (Mr. A.) was in the act of
doing, when his father carne down and prevented him ; and Sue.
therland wns given in charge to an offieer.
The " Captain," in defence, contended, that he was fully justi—
fied in acting as he had done. With regard to the affair between
the young lady and himself, there was more in it than met the
eye; of that he should say little, because he had no wish to talk me
a subject of so very delicate a nature ; but for the yosing man, Mom
had unadvisedly, and lie would assert, unsolicitedly, bmome ligef
champion, he bad really been the first aggressor, having struck at
him with an umbrella that was hanging in the paeans.
The Magistrate said, that it appeared to him to be a very kgjiah
piece of business on the defendant's side. No young lady =hid
have been persecuted in the way she seemed tohave been, and the
interference of any relative or friend was just what ought to have
been expected under such circumstanees. In every particular he
had betrayed a want of sense, and had no doubt committed the as-
sault as described, for which he should necessarily order him to
find good bail.

ONE WEEK ASTER AIARRIAOE.-0.1 Saturlay s roff looking
Hiberniar, named Dennis OSellitan. was charged with basin/
attempted to brat oat the brains of his youthful and pretty litt4
wife, Mrs. Mary O'Sullivan, under the following crcun at thee,
Poor Mary, a snug little Suffolk punch of most agreeable
siona, and possessing a couutenance wherein was blended a mixture
of sorrow and of anger, appeared at the bar with innumerable liga-
ments applied to the side of her head, and exhibited, on the whole,
a most incontrotertible evidence that her's was not a groundless
complaint. She stated that exactly a week since she had been
joined in the banns of hely matrimony to her worthy spouse, who
pursued the retention of a " physician" (otherwise a cow-doctor),
in which, by the way, lie did very well, and kept a snug satin
house over his head at Somer's-town. Mary lived with her uncle
and aunt close by, and, of course, had frequent opportunities of
meeting Dennis, who on all occasions behaved to her with the great-
est civility and kindness, and even treated her to the play the wefts
before they were married. Flattered by those endearing marks of
regard, Mary listened with a too credulous ear to the isle of Mite
which he addressed to her, and ultimately consented to become
Mrs. O'Sullivan ; but no sooner was be iuveated with the awful
title of husband, than Dennis began to male her feel that there was
in the marriage contract, what she had before thought nothing
about, namely. the word " obey,—a word that has more ugllneoe
In it, for married ladies, than all the words in the English language.
The fact was, that as soon as Mary became a wife she became a
slave also--she was ordered here and ordered thereLshe was com-
manded to do this, that, and the other, all at the same
every respect she was taught to feel her own inferiority, anti to ac-
knowledge the superlative pre-eminence of her lord and mister, and
all in the space of one little week. Thus things went on is a very
unhappy rotation until Friday evening, when Denis ordered her or
" decamp." "Decamp," said she, " what do you mean, Denis?"
Yea, then, I manes for ye to bundle off, Molly, honey, just as fast
as ye can, to yer ould uncle and aunt." Mary looked thunder-
struck—blows and abuse we* ill enough to lime, but the turn.oat
hi down right earnest was still wotse, and seeing that he bad taken
rather more than usual of that " elixir salmis" of life, vulgarly
called mar, she ventured to remonstrate with him on the unreason-
ableness of this command, and urged that in tau particular instance,
she would be justified in disobeying. But Denis was not a man
for notch logic ; he upset herself and her reasonings by a knock-
down blow, End then brutally heat her about the head with a rod of
the trifling diameter of one inch and a half. In this diversion be
wits surprised by a neighbour, who, attracted by poor Mall.'
piercing cries, ultimately compelled him to desist. Denis made a
defence, which most wives would have deemed an aggrava! !onnf
the mime. " I told het to go alorg home, ler honour, said
Denis, " beim sire was no use to toe at all ; and sure s

On Saturday, George Smith was brought before Mr. Twyfoed
for reetxamtoation, on charges of obtaining goods from various
Stadespeopk, by means of forged orders. The Magistrate, on re-
manding the prisoner lifter the first examination, said he had no
doubt that the publication of that would have the effect of bringing
forward other persons who had been similarly defrauded, and ac-
cordially, on Saturday, when the meaner was brought up the

Who came prepared with complaints of frauds which had been prat.
it on them.
The first ease stated was that of Mr. Skinner, of the Olive
Branch public house, Hackney-road, to whom a boy, named
Henry Sampson, 'assent on the Bth inst. with au order for a gallon
of rein, but Ale Skinner suspecting the order to be forged, de-
livered to Amboy a bottle of water Instead of rum, and following in
company with two friends, took the prisoner, whom the saw hover-
ing T_abou t the spot, watching the boy. Mee custody.

Another boy, named Davenport, also identified the prisoner as
die person who sent hint in January, 11322, with an order for a hot-
Mt of brandy to blr. King, cf the %l'hite Hart, Kingsland.road,
who, detecting the forgery, detained the boy, and the pout fellow
was kept in custody for three days.
•Idr.-Tiorroan now enquired. if any other charges were ready
to be poeferred against the prisoner. Nearly a dozen hands were at
ogee bald forth by tradesmer.„ who had either suffered themselves,

Ascher, a copper-plate printer, goods to the amount of 18s. had
been obtained, and in return, his name had been made use of to
obtain horn his customer a clock valued at 51.
On comparing the various forged papers, they appeared to be of
the same handwriting.
There being at present no evidence on these fresh charge", but
the identity of the writing with that of the order for which the
prisoner was apprehended, the Magistrate again remanded him
for further examination on Tuesday, the 28th inst., by which time

UNION HALL.
•On Saturday a respectable looking man, named John Ashton,
who was stated to hey: been formerly a stage coach proprietor, was
brought before the sitting Magistrate, M. SWANT, lisce in the
cusuily of Hepburn, one of the constables of Lambeth, in whose
tarok, which was handed to the Magistrate, appeared the following
extraordinary charge. via.—" John Hepburn, constable of Lam-
beth, charges John Ashton with hiving in his possession the body
el a female infant child in a putritied state, and not giving a good
ateceint of the same to the parish officers of Lambeth." On being
desired to relate the particular! of the charge against the prisoner,
Hepburn proceeded to state, that on Saturday morning he was seat
for by some of the inhabitants of Portugal-street, Lambeth. On
his arrival there, he was infermed by some persons who resided in
the liouse along with Ashton, that a very disagreeable effluvia
Proceeded from his zoom whenever the door of it happened to be
Jet .'pen, to the very great disgust and annoyance of the rest of
tin lodgers. It was also hinted to him that the body of a human
being in a putrid state was strongly suspected by the neighbours
to be conceited in some part of the prisoner's premises.
IN the strength of that information he forthwith proceeded to his
aisartrnents, and is a back closet within the room which wits occu-
r* by Ashram, the smell on their entrance was intolerable; look.
mg round this room In order to discover the cause, the Constable
elbeereed a small box, on the lid of which was a direction to an in.
disidual in Kent; tieding no key for it, he broke it open, and was
mocked on discovering the body of acidid in a highly putrid and
dlhneive state. Ashton not having been at home when this disco.
wary was first made, subsequently on his arrival there, he appeared
glumly incensed at what had taken place during his absence, and
Inemnptorily refused, when questioned on the subject, to give any
ivaiat as to the cause of the horrid spectacle which presented it-
self to the view of the Constable; and he also refused to allow the
elllttehers to examine the body, observing that it was his offspring;
deg it was a still born child, and that none of them had a right to
'Werfere with that which be said they had no business. Under
Mese circumstances, the Constable added, that he conceived it to be
Ws duty to apprehend Ashton, with a view to his giving au account
se the transaction before a Magistrate.
The Magistrate now called on Ashton to explain the cause of the
Mystery. He bgan by acknowledging that he had acted extremely
improper in keeping the body of his child for such a length of
dote above ground. The facts were these :—A female with whom
*beehabited was delivered of a still born child on the 4d' of last
April, and being at the time in a state of very great poverty
ha had not as much money as would defray the expenses
0 interment; in this dilemma, without king conscious that
an Application to the Parish Officers would have answered the
r*ime, he had himself put the bode of the child into a box, and
IR in one of his apartments, deferring its burial from time to
dome. until the present, for want of the means. He could assure the
Magistrate most solemnly, that whar he had stated was true; and
vrhh rcspret to any violence having been used towards the infant,
be mold bring forward the females who attended the mother during
her con& ernent, to corroborate his asseverations.
Mr. SWANEY observed that in say the best of the whole transac-
tion, it was an act of the most gross indecency he had ever heard of
is a Christian country, and although there was no evidence now
broaght forward to twee that the child had met with its death in
='pence of malice or ill treatment, he would by all means ad-
Tie parish officers to summons a jury, to sit upon the body,
and by that mons inquire into the real cause of its death.
The mother of the infant and another foliate then stepped for.
wird and assured the Magistrate thit the whole of the circumstance
stilted by Ashton were true.
The `‘lapis rate still, howeve, said that a Coroner's Inquest
allotdd be summoned.
Ashton said that he was anxious every investigation should take
Ake, in order that his character should be exonerated from all
suspicion
