SAVAGE ASSAULTS.—A man, who gave his name
William Barris, was charged with the following out-
rageous conduct. It appeared from the evidence that
at twelve last night, Brinkhurst, 112 D, saw the pri-
soner lying drunk in the Edgware-road. Be had hold
of the trousers of a man with his teeth, and was endea-
vouring to bite his leg. The officer with great difficulty
got prisoner away, upon which he (prisoner) kicked with
great violence, and made a desperate attempt to bite his
arm. Other constables came up, and prisoner was after
much resistance conveyed to the station-house.
The prisoner, in answer to the charge, pleaded intoxi-
cation as an excuse for his misconduct, and hoped that
the magistrate would deal with him as leniently as he
could.

Mr. Long told him that be could not be permitted to
assault parties without being made to suffer for the same,
and fined him 205., in default of payment 14 days' im-
prisonment. _

NOTORIOUS BRGGARS.—Thomas Wetforcl and Mary,
his wife, two of the most notorious beggars in London,
who have pursued their " trade" for nearly 20 years, and
have been repeatedly convicted at all the police-courts,
were again brought up by Fryer, an officer of the Men-
dicity Society.

They were committed for a month to* their old guar
ters in the House of Correction.

W.A.GHS OF AGRICULTURAL LABOURERS.--The annual
"statutes," or hirings of farm servants, have just com-
menced in the West Riding of Yorkshire. The Wake-
field statutes were held on Monday, and the Doncaster
statutes on Tuesday. There was a pretty good attend-
ance of servants at both places, the hiring was very brisk,
the demand for farming men being greater than the sup-
ply. Wages ruled high, the best hands obtaining from
151. to 221.; boys, 51. to 81.; girls, from 71. to 101.
ST. MARY, ISLINGTON.—PUBLIC LlBRARlES.—Yes-
terday a public meeting of the ratepayers of this parish
was held in the parochial schools, Church-street,
in order to determine whether the act for further pro-
moting the establishment of free public libraries and
museums in municipal towns should be adopted for this
parish. Mr. John Savage, the seniorchurchwarden, was
called to the chair. Various speeches followed pro and
con., and ultimately a stormy meeting closed with a
show of bands being taken, when an amendment was
proposed and carried against the proposition.
