UNION-HALL-(THIS DAY.)

A COLD BATH.--James Burgess, a porter, was this
morning brought before Mr. JEREMY, charged by Chas.
Dutton, the foreman to Mr. Rushy, who keeps the St.
James' Wharf, Old Kent Road, with assaulting him by
pushing him into the Surrey Canal. From the state-
ments of Dulton, it appoared that the prisoner, Burgess
aad been at work at his master's wharf; the whole of
yesterday, unloading a barge, which was laden with
tricks, and that about six o'clock in the evening, being
drunk, he came behind Dolton who was standing on the
barge, and without any provocation whatever, pushed
him into the canal, he also violently assaulted the police-
man, when he attempted to take him into custody.
Mr. JEREMY fined him 20s. for assaulting Dulton,
And 10s. for his attack upon the policeman.

George Yall, an ill-looking brute, was charged with
violently assaulting his father-in-law.
William Holt stated that he was the father-in-law of

:;he prisoner, who was of so violent a character that
was afraid of his lite. He would neither let
nim nor his mother rest ; and yesterday he came
to their house, and after abusing both of them in the
most scandalous manner, he threw several stones at the
witness, and swore that he would stab him with the
inife he had in his hand.

Mr. JEREMY ordered the prisoner to find sureties to
seep the peace to all her Majesty's subjects, especially
father-in-law and mother, himself in 201., and two
,ureties in 101. each.

The prisoner in default was ordered to be locked up ;
~nd as he was being removed from the dock, he ex-
claimed that the Magistrate might as well have a gallows
-rected and hang him at once, as pass such a sentence
upon him.
