The complainant said she was walking near Albemarle-
street the previous evening, when the prisoner came up and
deliberately kicked her twice on the knee without saying a
word. She followed him with the intention of giving him
into custody, and he went into apublichouse and then came
out, and saying, " You are here, are you," struck her a
severe blow in the face.

quickly remounted, and passed the stand about 80 yards
behind the other three. Venison then was first, Playman
second, and Sunbeam third ; at the next fence (the double)
Playman and Venison fell, the former being remounted
without losing much ground. Sunbeam then went on with
a strong lead, and had none but Playman near her into the
ploughed field opposite the stand, where Luff refused, and
was out of the race, Venison going on about 500 yards
behind. At the turn towards home, Sunbeam went wrong,
and was turned round. Flayman passed the stand alone;
after an interval came Sunbeam, and half a mile after her
Venison, who persevered to the hill and then was stopped.

Kitty, Forester, and Aniseed cleared it, and passed the
stand in the order named. Aniseed fell at the double, and

Grey Polly bad a lead of several lengths, but was evidently

rider, on endeavouring to rise, being knocked down by Mr.
Kent's mare, who was loose. The Flat and Forester then
