MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

The Marquis of Clanricarde attended in person
yesterday at this office, before Mr. DYER, the sitting
Magistrate, to answer an information preferred
against him for not having the snow, &c., cleared
and swept away from the foot pavement in front o`.
his Lordship's house, in:St. James's-square, on",the
day laid in the information, before ten o'clock in the
morning.
On hearing the nature of the complaint, and the
evidence in support of it, his Lordship was per-
fcctly satisfied, not only as to the truth, but the use-
fulness of this and similar complaints, and he was
quite ready to submit to any decision the Magistrate
might make.
Mr. DYEa said that it was only usual in such
cases, where a conviction takes place, to award a
penalty of 55., which sum his Lordship would have
to pay.
His Lordship immediately paid the fine, and
retired.
Lord Anson wag convicted in a like penalty for
a similar offence at his Lordship's house, in St.
James's•square also, and ens of his domestics, who
attended, paid the fine.

UNION-HALL.

Yesterday morning Rosa Rodie, a pretty-looking
girl, who stated herself to be only seventeen years
of age, appeared to swear that a young Frenchman,
named Picarde, was the father of a male infant, to
which she had letely given birth.
The deponent had been servant in a house kept
by Mr. Ross, in the Borough, where the defendant
was a lodger. About the latter end of March, or
the beginning of April, she was taken by him into a
public-house. She had two or three glance of pure
rum, which made her quite intoxicated. Afterwards
he took her into a house of ill fame, in Blackfriars-
road, where they were shown into a bed-loom by
an elderly female. She remained with him between
three and four hours, the greater part of the time
they were in bed; in the interim the defendant
effected her ruin. The child was born on the 29th
of November.
Mr. HONE—Were you a virgin at the time ?
Deponent—Yes, I was ; it was my first and only
time of being connected with a man.
Mr. HONE—According to your statement the
child is only an right months' child ; and I never
heard of one to live before. Deponent—l cannot
swear as to the time; but I will swear the defen-
dant is the father.
Mr. HoN!—How many times had Ile connexion
with you ? Deponent—l cannot now remember.
Mr. Shearman, on behalf of his client, should
prove the defendant could not be the father, because
he was in confinement at the time the connexion
was said to have taken place. AR officer from the
King's Bench then produced the return-book of
prisoners, by which it appeared the defendant had
been arrested for debt on the 27th of February, and
was never out of the custody of the officer until the
4th of March, when he was admitted into the
Bench, from which he did not depart until the
middle of June.
Mr. SWABEY to deponent—Do you not think it
was in February when you were with the defendant ?
Deponent—l cannot remember; I thick it was in
March or April.
Mr. SWABEY—Most girls would have remem-
bered not only that day but the hour when such a
misfortune had befallen them as that which hap-
pened to you. Did it never enter your head at the
time that you would in all probability be got with
child ? Deponent—l did not consider any thing
about it, for I was intoxicated—l fainted away
when all was over. I solemnly swear the defendant
is the father.
After some remarks from Mr. Shearman, the
Magistrates made an order upon his client for three
shillings per week, because the deponent maintained
the defendant to be the parent ; and though there
was a discrepancy in her statement as to the period
of the connexion, yet they thought from being in-
toxicated, and from her inexperience in such matters,
the precise time had escaped her memory.
