POLICE INTELLIGENCE.—This Day.

MARLBOROUGII-STREET.

ASSAULT IN IHE ALHAMBRA—DAMAGING A VALUABLE
SHAWL.—Elizabeth Leach, a well-dressed female, was
charged before the Hon. G. C. Norton with assaulting
Thomas Robert Richards, a clerk, of No. 20, Salisbury-
street.

Mr. Maynard, from the office of Mr. Beard, attended for
the defendant.

The complainant said that on Saturday evening he was
at the Alhambra Palace, Leicester-square, and accidentally
upset some beer over the defendant's shawl. He was after-
wards about to drink from a glass, and the defendant
struck the glass and smashed it in his face. He afterwards
gave her in charge.

In answer to the magistrate, the complainant said he was
not sure whether he apologised or not.
The defendant said the complainant never apologised at
all. She certainly struck the glass because the complain-
ant had spoilt her shawl and dress. The shawl was of the
value of 15 guineas, and her dress as well. If the defen-
dant had apologised she would have deemed it sufficient,
but the complainant and his friends were skylarking, and
laughed at her after the beer was upset.
The magistrate said the defendant admitted that if he
did apologise it was not till after he had drunk something,
and that was certainly very provoking.
The defendant said she wished compensation for her
shawl, the damage done to it being at least a guinea.
The complainant called Mr. Alfred Gray, of 34, St.
James's-street, and another witness, and after hearing them
the magistrate said he considered the complainant had
given the defendant great provocation. The complainant
ought to have apologised at once. He would give the par-
ties an opportunity of coming to an arrangement.
The complainant not being willing to compensate the
defendant for the damage done to her shawl, the magistrate
fined the defendant ss. for the assault, and ordered the
complainant to pay her a guinea compensation for the
shawl.

VIOLENT ASSAULT I3Y A WlFE.—Elizabeth Hayes was
charged before the Hon. G. C. Norton with violently as-
saulting her husband, Edward Hayes, at No. 17, Princes-
row, Newport-market.

Sergeant Allen, C division, said that about three o'clock
on Sunday morning he was called to 17, Princes-row,
Newport-market, where he found at the door the husband
of tho prisoner. Ho was bleeding a great deal from a
wound in the face, which he said had been inflicted by his
wife with a plate. Ho took the husband to the Charing-
cross Hospital, where he still remained.
The sergeant handed the magistrate a certificate from
the Charing-cross Hospital, signed by the house-surgeon,
to the effect that Edward Hayes was suffering from a severe
wound in the cheek.

The magistrate asked the sergeant what the prisoner shid
when she was taken into custody.
The sergeant said she admitted striking her husband,
but said he had first thrown a glass at her.
The prisoner said that was the case.
The sergeant said the husband would not appear against
his wife.

The magistrate asked whether the parties were old cus-
tomers at the court ?

Barns, tho•gaoler, said they had frequently been at the
court charging each other with assaults.
The magistrate asked the prisoner why she did not
leave her husband if they could not agree ?
The prisoner said her husband would not part from her.
The magistrate said that even if that was the case it was
no reason why she should try to kill her husband.
The prisoner was remanded.
