LAW INTELLIGENCE--This Day.

COURT OF BANKRUPTCY.
(Before Mr. Commissioner Goulburn.)
CLOSE OF THE-LONG VACATION.

The real business of the Court commenced to-day, and
the various legal gentlemen who practise in its pure
atmosphere returned to their duties after a somewhat
longer absence than usual. The list for the day was not
large, there being only one Commissioner " marked" as
judge, but the cases have all been fully noticed during the
vacation, and it is not anticipated that anything of inte-
rest will be put on the list before
.the middle of next week.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.—This Day.

BOW-STREET.

Michael Ryan, a big, hulking fellow, was charged with
assaulting one of the barmen employed by Mr. Smith, the
landlord of the Marquis of Anglesey, Bow-street.
Tho complainant said the prisoner entered the house on
Saturday evening in a state of intoxication and asked
to be served with more liquor, which was refused. He
became disorderly, and went to eject him from the house,
when the prisoner seized him with both hands, and. having
swung him over his head dashed him to the ground with
great violence. Ho received a severe wound on the temple
from coming in contact with the ground.

The magistrate said it was a cowardly proceeeding, and
fined the prisoner 205., or 14 days' imprisonment, with
hard labour.

Mary Ann Rustick, a vendor of boot-laces, was charged
with assaulting Mr. Hunter, the landlord of the Old Bell
Tavern, Wellington-street.

Mr. Hunter said the woman came to his house and asked
for drink, which was, of course, refused. He went round
to put her out of the house, when she commenced slash-
ing him in the face with the bundle of laces she had in her
hand.

Mr. Flowers asked Mr. Hunter if ho was much hurt ?
The laces, however, did not appear to be very thick.
Mr. Hunter said they were certainly not very thick, but
each ono had either a brass wire or a tag at the end, and
when all were used at once as a means of offence, they
were exceedingly dangerous. He did not wish to punish
the woman ; all he wanted her to do was to keep away from
his house.

Mr. Flowers told hor he should send her to prison for a
week.

Prisoner—Then bad luck to them for bringing me here.
She was then locked up.

Three men named Woods, Leonard, and Foster, were
placed at the bar, charged with creating a disturbance and
committing a violent assault.

The barman to Mr. Lawson, landlord of the Two Spies,
in Brydges-street, said on Saturday evening the prisoners
Woods and Leonard entered the house and asked to be
served with drink, which was refused, as they were in-
toxicated. They then became very abusive. Leonard
struck him in the face, and Woods, had it not been for the
assistance he received from Mr. Lawson and a friend,
would have been very severely injured.
Mr. Lawson, the landlord, said the prisoners came into
his house, and because they were refused drink they be-
came very abusive. They were told to leave the house, and
when the barman went round to persuade them to go, the
nor, and a constable had to be sent for. Whilst the two
prisoners were being conveyed to the station, the prisoner
Foster came up and told him ho had a good mind to serve
him the same ; and he also said, " I'll do for you some day
if I don't do it to-day."

William Howard said he was called to render assistance.
Woods came up to him, and threatened him if ho inter-
fored. He afterwards knocked Woods down, and helped
the constable to convoy the prisoners to the station.
John Joyce, a volunteer, said he was standing at the
corner of Catherine-street, talking to a police constable,
when a man came up and said the barman and the land-
lord of the Two Spios was being murdered by a set of
roughs, and that a great riot was going on. He, with the
constable, went up and found a great confusion. Seeing
the constable required assistance, he at onco rendered it,
and when the prisoners were being taken to the station
Foster came up to him and began menacing him. He told
him that if ho (Foster) insulted him, or attempted to stop
him, as he was going on duty, he would take him into
custody on his own responsibility. Ho received
a blow on the chest from Foster, and ho then gave him
into custody.

Police-constable 117 P corroborated the evidence o
Joyce as to the assault.

Police-constable 3PGloir, 40 F, corroborated the evidence
of the witnesses who spoke to the riotous proceedings in
front of the public-house.

The prisoners called some witnesses, who said they were
not so much in fault as had been stated. They received a
good character.

Mr. Flowers said it appeared that the prisoners were not
persons addicted to creating disturbances, and therefore he
should deal leniently with them, as there appeared to have
been a great deal of excitement throughout the disturbance.
Woods and Leonard were fined 205., or 14 days' imprison-
ment ; and Foster was ordered to enter into his recognis-
ances to keep the peace for three months.
