THAMES.

MY FIRST NIGHT IN LONDON.—John Moran, a tall and
respectable looking man, was brought before Mr. Solfe
(who migrated from Westminster), charged with being
drunk and disorderly and breaking a pane of glass in the
Plough beershop, Old Ford-road, Bow.
Mr. Elias Swinney, landlord of the Plough, said the pri-
soner, who had got drunk in another house, came to his
house and made a great disturbance, upsetting everything
and abusing everybody. The prisoner made a blow at
him and struck the beer-engine, which caused an abrasion
of his knuckles and inflamed him very much. The prisoner
then became furious and struck at several persons, but was
too drunk to make correct aim. The prisoner was then
turned out of the house and dashed his fist through a pane
of glass, the value of which was 7s. 6fl. He then gave the
prisoner into custody.
The prisoner, in defence, said that he arrived in London
from the country last night. It was his first night in
London.

Mr. Selfe—And you got drunk to celebrate it. You ar
fined 55., and 7s. 6d., the value of the glass.
Edward Carr, an Irishman, was charged for a similar
offence in the Town of Leith public-house,. Lower East
Smithfield, where he broke four small panes of glass, and
made a great disturbance. He shouted the name of
Cardinal Wiseman several times, and it appeared that the
death of that eminent scholar had caused him to indulge
very freely in drink.
Mr. Selfe told the prisoner he ought to be ashamed of
himself to get drunk on so solemn an occasion as the death
of a dignitary of his church, and fined him ss, and 65., the
value of the glass.
