MARYLEBONE.

SHOCKING CASE OF WIFE DESERTION.—Edward Char-
man, a bootmaker, was brought up on a warrant before Mr.
Mansfield, charged as a rogue and vagabond, for running
away and deserting his wife and child, thereby rendering
them chargeable to the parish of St. Marylebone.
Mr. Richard Thomas Tubbs, assistant overseer, attended
on behalf of the board of guardians, and said—ln this case
the defendant has been brought up on a warrant charged
with deserting his wife and child, and I think your wor-
ship will agree with me that it is one of the most painful
eases that was ever brought into a court of justice. The
desertion took place in August, 1862. It was early in the
month that I had my attention drawn to the case, and oa
proceeding to No. 17, Quebec-street, I saw the defendant's
wife and child in a shocking state of destitution, and almost
starving. The poor woman was very excited, and we had
to use every precaution to her get her and the child to the
workhouse, where every care was taken of her. She went
into a very low dejected state, and ultimately went out of
her mind, and had to be conveyed to Hanwell Lunatic
Asylum, where she now remains. I have seen her lately,
and her chance of recovery may be considered as hopeless.
A reward was offered for prisoner's apprehension, but no
tidings could be got of him till recently. The age of the
wife is only 26 years. The child, which was only two years
old, died on the 4th of November last.
James [lace, the warrant officer to the parish, proved
apprehending the prisoner.
Samuel Jupp said he knew the prisoner and his wife.
He behaved very indifferent to her at times. He struck her
and gave her a black eye. He was often quarrelling with
her.

Prisoner, who was well dressed, and seemed to take every
care of himself, said impudently to witness—Perhaps you
had something to do with—

Jupp—You base fellow to ray that ?
Mr. Mansfield—What have you to say to the charge of
desertion ?

Prisoner—l believe she deserted me, and lived with a
man in adultery. I have a letter to show something about

Mr. Tubbs—l have seen that letter, and it is the effusion
of a mad woman.

Jupp—The wife was always a virtuous, well-conducted
woman.

Mr, Mansfield—lt foes seem to me that this is about one
of the most shocking tragedies that I ever heard. The
poor creature of a wife, through your barborous and brutal
conduct, has been driven mad and placed in a lunatic
asylum, and your child consigned to a pauper's grim. God
forgive you, man, you have a deal to answer for. I sen-
tence you to three months' hard labour.

A MASS COMPOSED BY CIIILDREN.—The Paris
correspondent of the Times remarks :—" Those in
England who recollect Biagioli, the celebrated commenta-
tor on Dante and Petrarch, will feel an interest in hearing
that his grandchildren, Henry Perry, 10 years old, and his
sister Antonia, 16, both endowed with extraordinary musi-
cal genius, have composed a mass in music, which was
lately performed for a circle of friends at a villa near Paris.
The performance was so successful that the youthful per-
formers were requested to repeat it in one of the churches
in Paris. They have consented to do so on condition that
a collection shall be made in the church for the suffering
Poles. The performance is to take place as soon as the
arrangements era completed.

DRURY-L ANE.

A new two-act serio-comic drama, entitled "The
Deal Boatman," was produced here last evening in
the most successful manner. The author, Mr. F. C.
Burnand, has evidently founded his piece upon the
episode in the incomparable story of David Copper-
field, which treats of the fortunes of Old Pegotty,
the boatman, and his adopted child, Mary. In the
drama the old Deal boatman is named Jacob Vance
(Mr. Belmore), who has saved and adapted Mary
(Miss Rose Leclerq), and at the opening of the piece
she is about to be married to Mat Bramber (Mr. G.
Weston). The marriage feast is prepared and the
festival so far carried on that a brisk dance is given,
when it is found that Mary has gone off with a Mr.
Leslie (Mr. F. Charles), who has been boating with
the old man. The misery and distress caused by
this unexpected elopement is most vehemently ex-
pressed by the old boatman, who from a hearty
joyous old fellow becomes almost a lunatic.
The second act is occupied by the efforts of Leslie
to break his humble marriage to his ambitious and
purse-proud uncle (Mr. Barrett). Jacob Vance is
here shown seeking his adopted daughter, enfeebled
by his sorrows, and enraged by the scornful pro-
posal of the rich man to settle the matter by money.
After a scene of passion and a little prolonging the
distress, all things are made pleasant, Mary being
married to Leslie, and its being discovered that she
is the daughter of the rich old uncle whose wife
was lost at sea.

The acting of Mr. G. Belmore, as the old boatman,
was of first-rate excellence ; his powerful represen-
tation of despair, anger, and (on the recovery of his
lost child) joy, produced tremendous applause. The
other parts were all well sustained, and the author
received the usual compliment at the fall of the
curtain. Mr. Falconer's new comedy, " Nature's
above Art," as we antieipatsd, has greatly improved
by curtailment, and in its present shape it nightly
produces universal satisfaction and applause. The
house, we are pleased to announce, was very fully
attended.

CHARGE OP CRUELTY AGAINST A SCHOOLMASTER.—
A poor woman, named Jones, applied to Mr. Partridge for
a summons against George Wilson, the Master of the
Aldgs.to Charity School on Tower Hill, adjoining the Royal
Mint, for excessive severity to her son, a delicate boy, 11
years of age.

It appeared from the boy's statement that he was rubbing
his eyes, and for doing so the schoolmaster cut him severely
across his hands with a cane, and injured him severely.
His hands were sorely bruised, and there were marks upon
them now, although the chastisement was inflicted a fort-
night ago. The same schoolmaster again flogged the boy
with great severity for some violation of the selriol regu-
lations. The boy wasblind folded, and the schoolmaster
flogged him with a strap over the body. The boy was
directed by the magistrate to strip, and he did so. The
boy was much bruised, and there were several weals and
black and blue marks on his person.
The mother of the boysaid her child had suffered much
from ale cruel inflictions of Mr. Wilson, the schoolmaster.
Mr. Partridge granted a summons.
A DRUNKEN FISHMONGER.---The early drunkard,
Thomas Harlock, fishmonger, of No. 7, Charles-street, St.
George-in-the-East, aged 29, was brought before Mr
Partridge, charged with being drunk, and incapable of
taking care of his horse and cart at 5 o'clock this morning
in the Bow-road.

The charge was made out by George Birch, a police-con-
stable, No. 267 K, who said the prisoner was making a
ridiculous exhibition of himself in his cart, and could not
manage his horse.

The prisoner, who leant against the hack of the dock,
and put on a defiant air, said—" Well, I was half tight this
morning."

Mr. Partridge—You were intoxicated very early,
indeed.

The prisoner (insultingly)—Well, well, I was drunk—
people will get tipsy sometimes.
Mr. Partridge—You should keep sober; a drunken man
is quite unfit to have the charge of a horse and cart. You
endangered the puolic safety. I fine you 4Cs., and in de-
fault 21 Says' imprisonment.
The penalty was paid.

DISCOVERY OF ROCK SALT AT MIDDLEO-
BOROUGH.—The following is an extract of a letter
from Newcastle-on-Tyne:—" I do not know whether your
have observed anything about a very interesting discovery
that has been made in this district, under the new red sand
stone—a bed of rock salt at Middlesborough where they
have bored, It is about 120 feet thick; it is deep, I think
about 200 fathams. It. is likely to prove very valuable in
this great chemical district, salt being the basis from
which many of our great works derive their product. It
will, of course, interfoie with the Nantwich mines and
Liverpool salt. It opens out a curious speculation in con-
nection with the coal Mr. --- went to see, also under the
new red sandstone at Canobie. Of course nobody kncws
how far and which way it extends. It is now pretty well
understood that salt lies in large natural basins, as if the
water of a natural lake or sea arm had been evaporated and
the salt left behind."

HAYMARKET THEATRE.

The winter season of " the little theatre in the
Haymarket!' Commenced most auspiciously last
evening, the house being crowded in every part.
Daring the short recess the whole of the interior
has been redecorated in the most tastefal manner,
and a great many improvements introduced, all of
which contribute in a great degree to comfort the
audience. While Mr. Buckstone has studied the
convenience of his aristocratic patrons by replacing
the old benches in the dress circles and stalls
by elegant easy chairs, covered with crimson velvet,
the seats in the amphitheatre have not been over
looked and now they are as commodious and com-
fortable as those of the pit. The old, bat very
beautiful act drop has been removed, but another
splendid specimen of the painter's art has been sub-
stituted, which on its first exhibition called forth
general applause. The entertainments for the
opening night commenced with the capital farce
"Founded on Facts," in which Mr. Compton ap-
peared, as the pioneer of good humour, in the
part of Simon Sceptic, and, it is almost needless to
say, during the whole of the representation of the
piece, kept the audience in one continued state of
laughter. This was followed by Planche's drama
" Charles the Tivelfth," the part of the brave and
❑oble soldier-king being supported by Mr. A.
Wigan, that of Adam Brock by Mr. Buckstone,
Muddlework by Mr. Compton, Major Vanberg by
Mr Howe; while Miss Louisa Angel represented
Ulrica, the devoted daughter of Major Vanberg,
and Miss Louise Keeley,Udiga, the lively daughter
of Adam Brock.

Mr. Wigan's impersonation of Charles the
Twelfth indicated a careful appreciation of the
character, while the hearty and honest Adam
Brock found a truthful exponent in the person of
Mr. Bucketone, who was cordially welcomed by
the audience on his entry on the stage. The officious
burgomaster Muddle work was capitally sustained
by Mr. Compton. The other characters were done
ample justice to—Miss Louise Keeley singing with
much taste the pretty ballad of " Rise, gentle

moon."

The favourite farce of " The Bengal Tiger" fol-
lowed, in which the inimitable acting of Mr. and
Mrs. Alfred Wigan, as Sir Paul Pagoda and Miss
Yellowleaf, and Mr. Compton as David, kept the
audience in a constant state of hilarity.
At the mall of the curtain Mr. and Mrs. Wigan,
in compliance with the calls of the audieLce, ap-
peared before it, and bowed their acknowledg-
ments.

The Spanish ballet of " The Galician Fete," in
which Miss Fanny Wright and Senor Ricard and
an efficient corps de ballet appeared, brought the
performance to a felicitous termination.

Mr. Buckstone has our best wishes for a long
and prosperous season.

MARYLEBONE.

SHOCKING CASE OF WIPE DESEBTION.—Edward Char-
man, a bootmaker, was brought up on a warrant before Mr.
Mansfield, charged as a rogue and vagabond, for running
away and deserting his wife and child, thereby rendering
them chargeable to the parish of St. Marylebone.
Mr. Richard Thomas Tubbs, assistant overseer, attended
on behalf of the board of guardians, and said—ln this case
the defendant has been brought up on a warrant charged
with deserting his wife and child, and I think your wor-
ship will agree with me that it is one of the most painful
cases that was ever brought into a court of justice. The
desertion took place in August, 1862. It was early in the
month that I had my attention drawn to the case, and oa
proceed;ng to No. 17, Quebec-street, I saw the defendant's
wife and child inn shocking state of destitution, and almost
starving. The poor woman was very excited, and we had
to use every precaution to her get her and the child to the
workhouse, where every care was taken of her. She went
into a very low dejected state, and ultimately went out of
her mind, and had to be conveyed to H.anwell Lunatic
Asylum, where she now remains. I have seen her lately,
and her chance of recovery may be considered as hopeless.
A reward was offered for prisoner's apprehension, but no
tidings could be got of hiss till recently. The age of the
wife is only 26 years. The child, which was only two years
old, died on the 4th of November last.
James Itace, the warrant officer to the parish, proved
apprehending the prisoner.
Samuel Jupp said he knew the prisoner and his wife.
He behaved very indifferent to her at times. He struck her
and gave her a black eye. He was often quarrelling with
her. _

Prisoner, who was well dressed, and seemed to take every
care of himself, said impudently to witness—Perhaps you
had something to do with—
Jupp—You base fellow to ray that ?
Mr. Mansfield—What have you to say to the charge of
desertion ?

Prisoner—l believe she deserted me, and lived with a
man in adultery. I have a letter to show something about

_ .
Mr. Tubbs—l have seen that letter, and it is the effusion
of a mad woman. _

Jupp—The wife was always a virtuous, well-conducted
woman.

Mr. Mansfield—lt does seem to me that this is about one
of the most shocking tragedies that I ever heard. The
poor creature of a wife, through your barborous and brutal
conduct, has been driven mad and placed in a lunatic
asylum, and your child consigned to a pauper's grave. Goi
forgive you, man, you have a deal to answer for, I sen-
tence you to three months' hard labour.

A TERRIBLE FRIGHT FOR NAPOLEON III.!

The news that we are likely to have a brush with
Japan is exciting but not alarming. The prepa-
rations for a war with Franee are going on on a
grander scale than ever. Workmen in our navy
yards, and at many private yards, work Bight
and day. France is a foe worthy of our steel.
Still the contest will be a short one. Old Slidell is
sharp, and will very likely make Louis Napoleon
believe the moon is made of green cheese; but is
will be a bitter pill for his race to have a war with
the North. He will ❑ot have 1,000 men in the South
as allies. If either party permits an outside nation
to meddle with our quarrel I shall be surprised.
We have all adopted the Monroe doctrine, that no
European state shall change a government on this
continent. What dastards and wretched cowards
we should be were we to permit Louis Napoleon
to set up an emperor in Mexico ! I have an idea
that the earth will fall before it will be permitted.
