SOUTHWARK.

ASSAULTING WomEx.—Georgo Forest, a ruffianly-looking
young fellow, was charged before Mr. Woolrych with as-
saulting three women.

Ellen Flanagan said that, about half-past ten last night,
she saw the prisoner ill-using a woman in Southwark-
street, and on her remonstrating with him, he struck her a
violent blew on the face, and gave her a black eye.
The prisoner said that he was first assaulted by the wit-
ness, who pulled off his cap.
Mary Ann Dunn said that she witnessed the prisoner
striking a woman, and although she did not interfere, ho
struck her in the face.

Margaret Flanagan, dieter of the first witness, said that
she also was assaulted by the prisoner without gtving him
the slightest provocation.

Tho magistrate said the prisoner was a very ruffianly
fellow, and sentenced him to two months' hard labour.
THE RIVAL BROTHERS ; OR, Two OF A TRADE.—Edward
Beeman was charged under the following circumstances:
Joseph Beeman, his brother, said that the prisoner was
in the habit of threatening his life and otherwise annoy-
ing him, and yesterday forced open the door of his house
in Southwark-bridge-road, and broke a window. He and
the prisoner were in the same trade, as artificial flower
and fruit makers, and he attributed the conduct of the
latter to their being rivals. The prisoner was drunk
when he broke open the door yesterday.
The prisoner said that yesterday, about 2 o'clock, his
brother's wife abused him in the Blackfriars'-road, and
put her ingers to her nose. His brother copied his
designs, and then sold them to his (prisoner's) customers
at half price.

Magistrate—Why should he not sell them at any price
he wished ? Have you a patent ?
The prisoner said he was too poor to take one out.
Magistrate--You both copy from nature, and, if you copy
correctly, very likely your works resemble each other.
The prosecutor denied the statement of the prisoner as
to the alleged piracy, and said he was a hard-working
man with five children.

The prisoner was bound over to keep the peace for six
months.
