duty in Newington-cause way, when a young matt
came running up to him atzd tobi him he believed
a woman had murdered her hus band in Tiverton-
street, close by. The witness proceeded there,
and on entering No. 11 in that fa 'met he saw the
prisoner in a very excited state. He was shown hate
a room, where he saw the injured man under the
treatment of a surgeon. He was covered with-
blood. His nose had been cut so deep down from
the bridge that it actually hung fron.l a piece of
skin above the upper lip. The doctor strapped
up as well as he coui,d, and stopped the hrem orrh age,
when the prisoner w4's painted out as the per,lee
who inflicted the wound, and he then took her in ce
custody. Witness understood that they (the pr,'
soner and her husband) had been quarrelling all
the morning, and that in her passion she snatchea
up the knife, rushed at him, and cut him over the
nose with it.

Mr. Burcham observed that according to the)

if that took place death might soot' follow. Under
those circumstances he should reman d her for a week.
The Rev. Mr. Tugwell, the inc umbent of St.
Andrew's District Church, Stamford-s treet, attended
before Mr. Burcham to complain of thke annoyance
caused by a large number of lads asoembling on
Sunday to gamble under the arches of tLie Charing-
cross Railway, in the vicinity of his churoh. el
kept quarrelling and swearing. all day. The nui-
sance at last got so intolerable that he communi-
cated with Sir George Grey on the subject, the
result of which wasi that the police had orders to
interfere and take into custody all offending. Oa
Sunday, during Divine service, there was a COar
plete riot, and one of the constables was yell
roughly handled by the mob.
Mr. Burcham said there had been cases of the
same kind before but that he bad been compelled to
dismiss the prisoners, as no one really annoyed had
prosecuted.
Benjamin Smith, 35, a labourer, was charged_
with inciting a mob to assault the police, throveie6
stones, and causing the rescue of a prisoner.
Police-constable 52 L said that on Sunday 110011:
e'
he saw several lads tossing under the railway arch
in Brad-street. They were throwing up cored
money, and swearing dreadfully. One of the fau'
was taken into custody by a constable, but 300 er,
400 ruffianly fellows surrounded him and rescued
him. The witness went to the officer'e assistance'
when he was attacked with stones and brickbats.
One of the latter struck him on the head, cutting a
large hole in his hat and injuring him severely. 11°
saw the prisoner throw something at that tiract
and, with the assistance of a railway constable,
took him into custody.
Stone, an officer employed by the Charing-cross.
Railway Company, corroborated the constable's
statement.
Mr. Burcham fined the prisoner 200., with the
alternative of 14 days' hard labour.
