AN UNGRATEFUL SCOUNDRRL.—John Allen, a Lanca-
shire man, aged 25, was brought before !dr. Partridge, on
remrnd, charged with stealing a pair of cloth trousers, the
property of John Vine, a seaman belonging to the schooner
Railway, in the London Dock.

A few nights since the prisoner fell in with the mate of
the Railway, and said he came from Wigan, in Lanca-
shire, and was hard up. The mate treated him with a
supper and grog, and told him if he would come on board
the schooner in the London Dock he would give him a
pair of shoes. The prisoner accepted the invitation, and
was hospitably treated in the forecastle of the vessel. He
received a pair of shoes from the mate, who soon afterwards
left the vessel and went on the quay to smoke his pipe.
The prisoner, taking advantage of the absence of the crew,
opened a seaman's chest and took out a pair of trousers,
which he put on over his own. He left the schooner and
was hurrying towards the dock gate, when the prosecutor
was informed that the prisoner had his trousers on, Ha
pursued him, and after a long chase overtook him. The
prisoner, on being captured, said, "Let me go ; I'll pull off
the trousers."

Rainer, a Thames police constable, said the prisoner was
a halm:merman, and said he came from Wigan, in Lanca-
shire, and had been in London since Wednesday night:
He had been unable to ascertain anything about the
prisoner.

Mr Partridge said the prisoner was a very ungrateful
fellow, and sentenced him to one month's imprisonment
with hard labour.
A SLIGHT IViisTAlt.E,—A young woman came before Mr
Partridge and said she Was married on Saturday morning
in Bromley Church. Her husband's name and her own
name were carefully written on paper, but the clergyman
who officiated at the ceremony made a mistake in entering
the name in tho register-book. Her maiden name was
Hammersley. The parson entered the name as Hemmersly.
She put in her marriage certificate.

Mr Partridge said he could not assist the applicant. The
mistake of an E for the A would not affect the validity of
the marriage, He advised the applicant to make a declara-
tion of the mistake, and he would sign it for her.
