SHERIFFS' COURT.
(Before Mr. Sergeant Wheeler.)

HARD SWEARING BY POLICE-CONSTABLES, AND IMPRES
SIVE REMARKS BY THE JUDGE.-ISENBERG V. DOLDY.

This was an action to recover for a watch and guard. On
the part of the plaintiff three witnesses swore that the pro-
perty was sold to the defendant, who is a metropolitan
police constable, and these witnesses detailed to the court
minute facts in connection with the transaction.

Defendant swore that the watch was sold to his brother,
who had paid 10s., and only declined to pay the balance
because the 'plaintiff refused to alter the watch.
Plaintiff—You paid the 10s. and received the watch, and
called three or four times about it.

Defendant—My brother paid the 10s. and received the
watch, and I have only been in your place once in my life.
After hearing the brother, his honour (Mr. Wheeler) said,
" I find for plaintiff."

Defendant—l have a wife and four children ; will you
grant me time ?

His Honour (most impressively)—l regret to find that
such instances of hard swearing as I have witnessed from
police-constables should exist. It was only the other day,
in this very court, that a police-constable committed
gross and deliberate perjury, and I was obliged to caution—
ay, threaten to commit—him before I could bring him to a
sense of the obligations of an oath. lam not satisfied to-
day with defendant's case; and I tremble to think that ,the
liberties of the inhabitants of this great metropolis should,
perhaps, be intrusted to men who so loosely weigh the ob-
ligations imposed by the oath. It is painful to be compelled
to make these observations, but the oath is solemn and
serious upon all men, but particularly so to police-officers,
who have in their hands the lives and liberties of the sub-
jects of this land. (A loud burst of applause followed these
remarks, but it was speedily repressed by direction of his
Honour.)

POLICE---THIS D.Y.

MARLBOROUGH•STREET, THIS DAY,

A WIFE BEATING RUFFIAN COMMITTED FOR THE
FULL TERM.—Thomas Coles, a carpenter, of 14, Newport-
court, was charged with the following ruffianly assault on
his wife, Marttia Coles, the prisoner being brought up on
81 a remand.

Mrs. Coles, a respectable looking woman, said on Tues-
day evening her husband came home and complained be -
cause his supper was not ready, the reason being that she
had been washing all day. He then knocked her down
twice, and a person interfered, and as soon ai she left the
prisoner again knocked her down, and then kicked her in
the breast.

The landlady cf the house said, hearing screams of
" murder," bhe went upstairs, and saw Mrs. Coles rising,
with her eye much inflamed. She told the prisoner it was
cruel of him, as his wife had been washing all day. After
she had left the room a short time she heard screams again,
and a heavy fall overhead, and on again going upstairs she
saw the prisoner kick his wife in the back. She called him
a brute, and he then struck her (witness) in the face. She
did not think the prisoner was sober. She kept up all
night, and prisoner's son said that his father had threat-
ened to kill him if he did not keep quiet.
Gordon, 336 A, said he bad long known Mrs. Coles as a
respectable woman, and the prisoner was constantly M-
using her.

by the court. He also believed the prisoner had beeen corn
mitted at the Lambeth Police-court for the same offence.

The prisoner, in a rambling defence, said the female was
not his wife; as she had a husband alive when he married
her.

Mr. Knox said a glance at the prisoner would tell any
one what he was. He believed all he had said in his de-
fence was a tissue of lies, The only thing ho could do for
the woman was to get her free from the prisoner for six
months' with hard labour.
ATTEMPTED SUICIDE THROUGH INTEMPERANCE.—
Rebecca Kinghorn, of 1, Cross-street, need.ewoman, was
charged before Mr. Knox with attempting to commit sui
tide.
The defendant had been drinking for some days, and while
labouring under its effects took a quantity of laudanum.
Information was given of the fact by a young woman named
Eliza Rolysh, and Mr. M'Oscar, of Tyler-street, was sent
for and the defendant afterwards taken to the Middlesex
Hospital.
The defendant said she had been very much upset, and
asked to be allowed to go away.

Mr. Knox said he did not consider himself justified in
letting her go after sh 9 had attempted to take her life, which
was as bad as taking that of another person. He should
send her to the House of Detention, where she would be
under the care of the chaplain (Mr Jephson), who would
say to her that which he (Mr. Knox) hoped would have an
impression on her and would be useful to her for the future
