TI?OTTI,A GMAT CH.
A Trotting Match came off at Hall's Cricket Ground, Caul:
ber Nell, for a massive Silver Cup and Cover, elegantly Anse°,
on Monday last, in the presence of a large number of sp.-dint!.
gentlemen, the match having excited great interest, from the
known character of the three first horses, viz. : 1.
Mr. F. Chester's bald-faced cob
Mr. Edwards's entire horse 1 3 2 "
Alt. Emdon's b own mare
Mr. Collins's Moss Rose 4 4 dr
Mr. Barton's ch. h. Tryall
The little bald-faced cob broke twice, was pulled up' an
turned, and although upwards of '2OO yards behind, overtoo`
the entire horse on the winning-post ; had it been a yard fur-
ther he would have beaten him, as he did, with great ease, the
following heats ; it was astonishing the immense applause
which followed the announcement of the little cob or Pocket
Hercules winning ; it was the admiration of all to witness his
very peculiar and trotting style of going, similar M ever/
r‘'sPect to the justly celebrated Tom Thumb.

AQUATICS.
ITORSELYDoWi; REGATTA.-The annual contest amongst the
watermea plying at (Jorselydown was very excellently rowed.
The attendance of noai:-.7! on the river was exceedingly grecuatll9
as was that on shore. Thu wager was with six pair of s
in five heats, and the distanat extended nearly the whole front
age of the town to the river. The match was for a vrherrl
and four other prizes, given by t,l,e Ladies and Gentlemen,
residents, and, after a very excellent contest, was won by George
Christie, Freeman the second man. The winner rowed in the
" Wonder," built by Maynard and Noulton.

WESTMINSTER SESSIONS.

ADJOURNMENT DAY.

Charles Dawson, an officer of Queen's-square Police
Office, was indicted for an assault on the person of James
Colwell, a keeper of a marine store-shop in Tothill-street'
Westminster.
Mr. PRICE appeared for the prosecution, and Mr. C'
PHILLIPS for the defence.
It appeared that the defendant went on the sth of Jul,'
to the house of the prosecutor to make a search for stolen
goods. After leaving the house, he retired to a public'
house in the neighbourhood, where he was followed by the
prosecutor, who happened to be absent from home when
the search took place, and on demanding to see the defen-
dant's authority, it was refused, as the defendent was sating,
under a local act. A scuffle took place in consequence 01
the search warrant not being exhibited, and the defendent
violently struck the prosecutor in the face.
In the cross-examination the prosecutor admitted that
the magistrates at Queen-square refused to entertain the
case, as the defendant had acted perfectly legal in the stepn
he had taken under the authority of the local act. He
also said he had been convicted in 1832 of stealing *
neighbours' ham, and that the officers had occasion nt,
different times to search his house, from whence they ha
°
taken a thief whose husband peas to give evidence in the
present case.
Mr. C. PHILLIPS addressed the Jury for a short time,
and was informed that it was unnecessary to call witnesses
for the defence. The Jury accordingly returned a verdict
of not guilty. After disposing of a few other assault cases
of no public interest the court adjourned.
