POLICE-THIS DAY.

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

SERIOUS ASSUALT BY A DISCHARGED SOLDIER,—
George Middleditch, who was discharged yesterday from
the Coldstream Guards, being invalided, was charged with
violently assaulting George Glenny, a corporal of the Cold-
stream Guards, who was unable to attend._ _

The loPowing certificate was handed to Mr. Tyrwhitt:—
" Regimental Barracks, Vincent-square,
Westminster.
" This is to certify that George Glenny is unable to
attend the court owing to a bad cut on the eye.
" ROBERT FARQUHARSON, Assist.-Surgeon,
Coldstream Guards."

Mr. Alfred Rutland, of Manor-house, Stockwell Green,
proved that while passing a public-house in Green-street,
Leicester-square, seeing the injured man knocked down by
a soldier of the Coldstream Guards, and on getting up
again the prisoner again knocked him down by a severe
blow. Two or three other soldiers were also of the prisoner's
party and attacking the injured man. On his (witness)
interfering, the prisoner said he would smash his head, and
he believed that the injured man would have been killed
but for assistance arriving. The prisoner said it was an
old grudge he owed the corporal.
Richard Massin, drill sergeant of the 2d battalion of
Coldstream Guards, said that, on the previous evening,
hearing that a corporal was being ill-used, he went with
eight men to Green-street and gave the prisoner in charge.
The corporal had such a bad cut on his eye that he was
compelled to be taken to the hospital in a cab.
Mr. Tyrwhitt, seeing the prisoner although discharged
from the army was wearing a uniform coat, asked the drill
sergeant what the prisoner was discharged for, and why
he was wearing the coat.

1041

The sergeant said the prisoner was invalided and dis-
charged, because he had something the matter with his
neck. The coat, by the military regulations, belonged to
the prisoner.

Mr. Tyrwhitt remanded the prisoner.
. THE WAY MAGISTRATES ARREST PEOPLE IN IRE-
LAND.-Mr. Thomas M•Sheen, gentleman, of Sam's Hotel,
Strand, was charged with assaulting William Morris, 173 C.
Morris, 173 C, said—About half-past ten last night I was
doing special duty at the London Eldorado Music-hall,
Leicester-square, when I heard the defendant having a
dispute with some one in the hall about the payment of
some brandy. The proprietor told the defendant he would
make him a present of the brandy, and ordered him out of
the place, not wishing to have any disturbance. The de-
fendant left, and when he got •to the bottom of the steps he
caused great disorder, said he was "the mayor of Lime-
rick and a magistrate," and, thrusting his fingers down ray
stock, called out " I'll arrest you." I requested the defen-
-131 dant not to make any further disturbance, and to leave.
He went a little way and came back and said, "I'll show
you bow the magistrates in Ireland arrest people," and
again thrust his fingers down my stock, driving his knuckles
into my throat, hurting me very much, and also hurt my
arm. Defendant was drunk.
23 21 Defendant—l am very sorry.

Mr. Tyrwhitt—lt is impossible that I can pass over such
conduct, and you must pay 40s. or 14 days.

WESTMINSTE R.

EXTRAORDINARY AFFAIR.—John Cochrane and John
Ryan alias John Connor, two ruffianly-looking fellows and
well known bad characters, were charged with the follow-
ing serious offences.

Hannah Francis, whose face was much bruised, said she
was a married woman, and lodged in Mermaid's-court,
Chelsea, away from her husband. Last night she was re-
turning home at a quarter past 10, when the prisoners and
several others seized her, and dragged her forcibly into an
empty house in Mermaid's-court, and used her most bru-
tally.
Mr. Paynter—What did they do ?

Prosecutor—They beat me very much, and some of them
held me down while the others endeavoured to commit a
rape upon me.

34i i

Mr. Paynter—Which of them attacked you first ?
Prosecutrix—l really don't know ; they held me down
and tried to do it, but 1 kicked so that they did not suc-
ceed. Well, then, I rushed out at 4in the morning.
Mr. Paynter—What I Did you remain there six hours ?
Prosecutrix—Yes. They would not let me go. I was
held down. They stripped me almost naked, and tore all
my things to pieces. They stole my shawl and all the
money I had on me.

Mr. Paynter—Was this on the ground floor ?
Prosecutrix—Yes, and up stairs too. They dragged me
up and down stairs by legs and feet and the hair of the
head. I was used most brutally.

Police constable Alleley, 194 B, said—l met this woman
at four this morning in Turk's-row. Her clothes were
torn all to pieces, and she complained of having been as-
saulted and robbed.

BEDFORD RACES.-THIS DAY.

BY ELECTRIC TELEGRAPH.
NEW STAKES.

Mr. Paynter—What did she tell you ?
Constable—She told me that they had kept her all night,
and all had connection with her. She pointed out the
premises, and gave them into custody.
Mr. Paynter—You are quite certain she told you what
you have stated.
Constable—Quite certain.

Mr. Paynter—lt's a very extraordinary affair. Did you
pass the place on your beat ?
Constable—Several times. Prosecutrix told me that
every time I passed she heard me, and tried to call out, but
they covered her mouth over and threatened to murder her.

-
Both prisoners denied the charge.
Dr. Edward Lowe Webb, of St. George's-road, Pimlico,
was then called, and in answer to Mr. Paynter's inquiries,
said he saw the woman at half-past four. She complained
of tenderness about the body, He examined her. There
were no marks of violence upon her; but she was a mar-
ried woman and had had children. There was a little ten-
derness, perhaps, and a swelling, but nothing more. She
had a bruise upon her arm, and several bruises upon the
face.

Mr. Paynter having repeated that this was a most extra-
ordinary case, remanded the prisoners till Tuesday next.

SOUTHWARK.
ATTEMPTING TO PICK A POCKET.—Richard Johnson, a
shabbily dressed young man, was charged with attempting
to pick pockets in the Borough last night.
Alfred Hitchcock said that about ten o'clock last night he
was walking up Union-street when he felt a hand in his
coat pocket, and turning round saw the prisoner with his
handkerchief in his hand, which he had partially drawn out
of his pocket. On being discovered the prisoner ran away,
but ho immediately followed him,
and two policemen com-
ing up at the time he gave him into charge. Another man
appeared to be in company with the prisoner at the time he
attempted to steal the handkerchief, but he was unable to
identify him, so that the police had no means of apprehend-
ing him.

Police-constable 503 A, said that about ten o'clock last
night the complainant told him that a man had attempted
to pick his pocket and pointed out the prisoner as the per-
son. He took him to the station, and on searching him he
found three kid gloves.
The prisoner, in reply to the magistrate, said that he was
a brush maker employed in the New Cut, and that the
gloves were his own property. He said the complainant
was mistaken with regard to him, but he assigned no
reason fo►• running down the street when there was a cry
of " stop thief."

603 A, said that he knew him to be the associate of a
gang of thieves who loiter about Gravel lane and the
neighbourhood.

The Magistrate said as no previous conviction had been
proved against the prisoner, notwithstanding his acquaint.
ance with thieves, he would only sentence him to two
months hard labour.

CITY SEWERS COMMTSSION.—At the weekly meet- '
ing of the Commissioners of Sewers held yesterday, at
Guildhall, Mr. De Jersey in the chair, Dr. Letheby, the
medical officer, reported on the state of 178 houses that had
been inspected during the week, and he submitted a list of
77 places for sanitary improvement. He likewise reported
that the markets and slaughterhouses had been duly in-
spected during the week, and that the officers had seized
7,263 lbs. of meat, and 1,217 head of game and poultry as
unfit for food ; 1,378 lbs. of the meat were diseased, and the
rest, as well as the game and poultry, were putrid. 52 births
and 43 deaths were registered during the week. The num-
ber of deaths is greatly below the average for the season
(52) ; 17 of the deaths were among children of less than five
years of age, and seven among old persons of 60 and up-
' wards. The chief cause of death were as follows :
Phthisis, 6 ; mesenteric disease and scrofula, 4 ; hydroce-
phalus, 2 ; bronchitis, 2 ; continued fever, 2 ; scarlet fever,
1 4 ; measles, 3 ; diphtheria, 1; dysentery, 1; and infantile
diarrhoea, 2; making together 12 deaths from tubercular
diseases ; 2 from inflammatory affections of the lungs ; and
11 from diseases of zymotic character.
SAN FRANCISCO (PERNAMBUCO) RAILWAY.—At
the half-yearly meeting yesterday of the Recife and San
Francisco (Pernambuco) Company, Mr. R. Benson in the
chair, the report of the directors was unanimously carried.
The traffic receipts for the half-year were £17,959 7s. 3d.,
against £17,311 14s. 2d. in the corresponding period of
1861. The result of the committee's deliberation upon the
reports of the English and Brazilian Commissioners had
not yet been received. The extension of the line into the
town of Recife still continued to be greatly desired by the
inhabitants, and the directors were in hopes that as soon as
the present line is completed the Imperial Government
would concur in this extension, and in providing rolling
stock adequate to the requirements of the district traversed
by the railway, to which the directors had repeatedly drawn
attention.
A MAN FOUND DEAD.—On Saturday, a man was
found dying in the township of Lupton, near Burton,
Westmoreland, and he died soon afterwards. He was of
medium height, appeared to be upwards of fifty years
of age, and his hair was grey. In his pocket was found a
piece of paper inscribed " William Knowles, Manchester."
At present the body has not been claimed,—Manohester
Guardian.
The Giornale di Napoli announces the arrest and
execution of the notorious bandit Curia di Longobuco, whq
infested the neighbourhood of Corigho,ol at Calabria.

MIDDLESEX SESSIONS—(This Day).

(Before Mr. Payne.)
EXTRAORDINARY SCENE IN COURT.
Stephen Joseph Meaney, a person connected with the
Irish and provincial press, was indicted for fraudulently
obtaining by false pretences from John Martin, a book
value 16s. 6d , the property of Mr. Wibley.
From the evidence it appeared that the prisoner procured
the property by producing some letters which were to the
effect that a large sum of money was in a short time coming
to him, which letters it was said were forgeries.
The prisoner, in his defence, read a long written state •
ment, in which he indignantly denied the charge preferred
against him.
The learned Judge having summed up,

The Jury said they were of opinion that the prisoner
obtained the goods on the faith of the letters, but that they
thought he eventually intended to pay for them.

Mr. Ribton said that was in fact a verdict of Rot guilty.
The Assistant Judge told Mr. Ribton that he did not
wish to be directed by him.

Mr. Ribton said the man was undefended, and therefore
ha interfered. He considered the verdict just delivered
ought to be recorded.

The learned Judge told the jury that he could not take
the verdict they had just returned. If they belieyed the
prisoner only used the forged letters with a vier eventually
to pay for them that was not a verdict he could receive.
The jury were of opinion that prisoner obtained the
books upon the faith of the representations contained in
the letters.

The Judge—Then that is a verdict of guilty.
Mr. Ribton observed that the jury had already said that
the prisoner intended to pay, for the books. That certainly
does away with the unlawful detention.
The Judge observed that the jury had returned a verdict
which was in his opinion one of guilty, and he should give
sentence.

Dr. Bateman, one of the Middlesex magistrates, who hap-
pened to be sitting on the bench, said he thought it was a
case in which no sentence ought to be given. He looked
upon it as a verdict of not guilty. (Cheers.)
The Judge—Such an exhibition of feeling in a court of
justice is discreditable; and if the parties creating it con-
tinued in their course he would order some of them into
custody.

The prisoner—l demand to have the first verdict re
corded. I have been, I maintain, acquitted of an evil in-
tention.

The Judge—l say the jury have found a verdict of guilty.
Mr. Ribton—Will you reserve the case ?
The Judge—Certainly not, it is too simple.
Mr. Ribton—The prisoner has a right to have the first
verdict recorded against him, and that, I contend, is one
o f not guilty. _

The prisoner—Will your lordship hear what I've to
say.

The Judge—l refuse to do so ; but, before I pass sen-
tence, I will consult the learned Assistant-Judge.
The Prisoner—l demand—

The officer in the dock obeyed the direction of the judge,
and the prisoner was taken below.
During the latter part of this scene the greatest confusion
prevailed in the court, all order seemed to be disregarded.
The scene was beyond description, nothing but a babel
of tongues being heard amongst jury, counsel, policemen,
ushers, and the number of persons who were present.
