LONDON SESSIONS-WEDNESDAY•

The Court sat in the Court of Common };leas,
John Hogg, an artillery-driver, was indicted for assault-
ing William Oliver, in the parish of St. Dunstan-in-the-
East. William Oliver, on the 22d of September, was on
duty in North-lane, Tower-street, when the defendant was
exposing his Person in the middle of the street, being at the
time very drunk. He remonstrated with him, and was
using his best exertions to get him to his quarters in the
Tower, when he kicked him so violently that he was obliged
to obtain assistance to get there. His abuse was of the
grossest character. The witness having stated what hap-
pened at the Tower, the prisoner was placed in the black-
hole, and next morning conveyed by a file of soldiers to the
Mansion-house, the military authorities at the Tower having
consigned the case to a civil tribunal. His violence was so
extreme at the Mansion-house that the officers found it ne-
cessary to handcuff him, and he was subsequently committed
to the Compter. The blows inflicted upon him very much
injured him, and he. was likely to feel it as long as he lived,
The prisoner made a long and rambling defence. He
had not the slightest recollection of kicking or ill-using the
constable.

The Jury returned a verdict of Guilty.
The RECORDER observed that soldiers should feel they
were subject to the civil law. Nine different times the
prisoner had been tried in his regiment, and that spoke
pretty plainly the sort of character he was. For this
offence the sentence of the Court was, that he be impri-
soned in the Compter for twelve calendar months, and be
kept to hard labour.
