WESTMINSTER.

THE PUBLIC SAFETY.-Mr. George Frederick Sadler,
livery-stable keeper in Bessborougl-place, Pimlico, rwas
charged with being drunk under the following circum-
stances :

Mr. Rolls, an inspector of the B division, said that he was
passing the Bag of Nails tavern, Pimlico, in plain clothes,
last evening, when he saw a crowd of persons assembled,
attracted, as it seemed, by defendant and another person,
who were both drunk on horseback. Defendant suddenly
rode upon the pavement amongst the crowd, and it was the
greatest mercy that some accident did not happen. A gen-
tleman laid hold of the horse's head to prevent mischief,
when defendant struck him across the hat with a stick.
Witness took defendant into custody. The gentleman
walked away without making any charge against the
defendant.

The charge of drunkenness was not denied.
Mr. Dayman said that it was, indeed, most fortunate
that no mischief had resulted from the defendant's riding
amongst the l eople, which must be attended with great
danger. He should fine defendant 408. (Jr commit him for
seven days.
The fine was paid.

. -
Mr. Robert Walter Jones, a corn merchant, Vauxhall-
bridge, was also charged with being drank and incapable
of taking care of himself and horse at the same time and
place,

Defendant said ho did not consider himself intoxicated.
He saw his friend Mr. Sadler taken to the station, and rode
there to see about the matter, when, to his great surprise, he
was locked up himself.
Mr. Bolls said that he saw defendant near the Bag of
Nails. He was so drunk that he was rolling about in his
saddle, and as the operation of unhorsing a drunken man
is always attended with some amount of risk, he considered
it better to let him go to the station before he interfered
with him, when there he considered it his duty to detain
him, and did so.
Mr. Dayman (to defendant)—Have you antyhing further
to say ?

Defendant—After what the inspector has now stated it
would, I think, be useless.
Mr. Dayman—You are fined ss.
The fine was paid.
DESERTION OF A WIFE AND FAMILY.—Mrs. Sarah
Howard, of 29, Ebury-street, Pimlico, applied for an order
to protect her property against her husband. She said she
had been married twenty years. Six years ago, her husband
having failed in business at St. John's-wood, recommended
her to go down into the country with her four children,
and remain there a few weeks, till he got her afresh home.
From that time she never saw nor heard of him ; he com-
pletely abandoned herself and his children. She had since
by the exercise of her own industry and perseverance sup-
ported her family, and was now in business as a green-
grocer.
The protection order was granted.

SOUTHWARK.
BURGLARY IN A PUBLIC. ROUSE.—George Wade, a ruf-
fianly-looking fellow, about 40, whose occupation was un-
known, was charged with stealing a quantity of wearing
apparel, the property of Mr. John Cotton, landlord of The
Rising Sun public-house, Kent-street, Borough.
From the evidence it appeared that the property was safe
on Saturday night when the family retired to rest, but
when the landlord rose the next morning he discovered
that the drawers had been ransacked, and the property in
question abstracted. He immediately gave information to
the police.

Sergeant Pearce, 7 M, stated that when he was informed
of the burglary he examined the premises, and having
heard that a person answering the description of the pri-
soner was seen lurking about the house in the morning, he
made inquiries, which resulted in his tracing him to a low
lodging-house in White Horse-yard, Kent•streef. On
searching the prisoner's room he found the stolen property,
but, notwithstanding, the prisoner denied that he had taken
the articles. He was not aware of any previous conviction
against the prisoner.
Committed far trial.
