BOW-STREET.

Mr. Rowland Alston, of Harley-street, the Grand
Master of the Masonic Society, accompanied by Mr.
Coggin, of the Freemasons' Tavern, in Great Queen-
street, waited upon Mr. Jardine to request his advice
under the following circumstances :
It was stated that for some time past printed circu-
lars and betting lists had been forwarded to the land-
lords of provincial hotels and coffee-houses, addressed
"To the Masonic Brethren of all England," and
purporting to emanate from the " Masonic-office."
A fraudulent imitation of the society's official stamp
was impressed upon the envelope, and the enclosures
were accompanied by a note requesting that the
proprietor would hang them up in his coffee-room or
parlour.

The circular purported to emanate from the " Ge-
neral office, 501. Great Queen-street, Lincoln's-inn-
fields," and the meetings af the " auditors' and direc-
tors' board" were represented as being held periodi-
cally "at the Freemasons' Tavern." The whole was
an attempt to induce gentlemen of the order of Free-
masons to negotiate their " turf transactions" with the
alleged company, under the presumed guarantee that
it enjoyed the express sanction of the Masonic
Society and carried on its business meetings in the
tavern with which that bodiy is known to be associated.
These false representations had become known to the
applicants in consequence of the Postmaster-General
having returned some of the letters from the Dead-
letter-office to the Masonic Society, and it was conse-
quently the wish, both of Mr. Alston, on behalf of
the eveioty, and of Mr. Coggin, on behalf of thp prn.
prietors of the Freemasons' Tavern, to repudiate all
connexion with the p a.rties in question, or any
betting-office whatever, and, at the same time to take
such steps as would prevent the public from being
deceived by such false and fraudulent pretences.
Mr. JARDINE could not entertain the subject in the
absence of any specific c barge against one or more of
the parties alleged to have made the false pretences.
It appeared to him that the newspapers were the best
medium through which to correct any misrepresen-
tation of that kind.

WORSHIP-STREET.
William liollozvaty, a young man of very dissipated
appearance, was charged with seriously injuring a
young woman named Jane Tanner, the daughter of a
widow residing in Ivy-street, Hoxton.
From the statement o F the complainant, a delicate-
looking young person, whose face was shockingly dis-
figured, and who was in such a state of debility and
suffering that she was obliged to be seated while giv-
ing her testimony, it appeared that she had been ac-
quainted with the prisoner for the last twelvemonth,
during the latter portion of which period he had paid
her his addresses, and had been formally received at
her mother's house as her accepted suitor. Since he
had succeeded in gaining her affections, however, she
was grieved at finding that she bad been entirely
mistaken in his character, and that he was addicted to
the most dissolute and drunken habits, for the gratifi-
cation of which he was constantly in the habit of ex-
torting money from her, and whenever she could not
comply with these exactions he invariably subjected
her to the grossest abuse and personal ill-treatment.
A short time ago. he made a similar demand upon her,
and upon her telling him that she could not meet such
extortions in future, and that he must endeavour to do
without, he immediately commenced a most unmerciful
attack upon bur, and in the course of it knocked out
two of her teeth. For this outrage, however, he sub-
sequently expressed much regret, and she therefore
not only refrained from disclosing his brutality to her
friends, but made it up with and forgave him, on his
promise that he would never repeat it. On Tuesday
afternoon he called at the house to take her out, and,
after walking together for some time, she was taking
leave of him at her mother's door, when he abruptly
told her that he was again in want of money, and in-
timated without any circumlocution that he expected
her to give it to him. She told him that it was ut-
terly impossible for her to do so, as she had not then
a penny in her possession, and the instant the words
were uttered he flew into a violent passion, and dealt
her such a violent blow in the face that she became
partially stunned, and both her eyes were swollen and
contused as they now appeared. Upon recovering
from the effects of this blow she attempted to escape
from him, but before she could do so he dealt her a
second blow under one of her ears, which felled her to
the ground, and continued beating and kicking her
about the body till there was scarcely a part of her
person that was not covered with bruises. The pri-
soner then hastened away, and upon her retreating
into the house and apprising her mother of the treat-
ment to which she had been subjected, she at once
accompanied her to this court and obtained alwarrant
for his apprehension.

The yiiiing woman's mother, a respectable looking
widow, stated, that in consequence of the cruel treat-
ment her daughter had sustained at the hands of the
prisoner, 1 she had over since been under the care of a
surgeon, and she was also shocked to find that he had
taken a base advantage of the poor girl's affection for
him to accomplish her ruin, and that she was now in
an advanced stage of pregnancy.
Mr. HAMMILL said thata more heartless and aggra-
vated case had never been brought under his notice,
and he should certainly commit him at once for trial,
if the complainant would undertake to attend at the
sessions and give evidence against him.
On this appeal being made to the complainant, who
was dreadfully agitated, the young woman mourn-
fully shook her head and exclaimed, " Oh, no, Sir,
.1
can't prosecute him ; let him go away—l don't wish
him to be punished."
Mr. HAMMILL said, that under these circumstances
it would be manifestly quite useless to send the pri-
soner before a jury, that he might be dealt with in a
