CRIMINAL COURT.--This Day.
_ -
OLD COURT.
(Before the Recorder.)
TAREATENING TO PUBLISH A LIBEL.

Frederick Jacob Pillott was indicted for feloniously
sending a certain letter, knowing .the contents thereof, de-
manding of Rachel Ch4puis, with menace, the sum of
£35 15s.

The prisoner pleaded guilty to the misdemeanour.
The Recorder„ in passing sentence, said the prisoner had
pleaded guilty to a very serious and cowardly offence.
From what the Court had heard, it appeared that the
prosecutor and prisoner had been at ono time good friends,
but differences had occurred, and an action had been
brought against the prisoner, which he improperly defended.
It appeared that he had had an interview with Mrs. Chap-
puis without the knowledge of her husband, and from
that he (the prisoner) had attempted to wring from
her money to defend the action to which he was a party
against he own husband. He had further threatened to
publish certain statements imputing infidelity to her, but
he was happy to say nothing to substantiate such a charge
had been offered in court, and it was also gratifying to
know the husband did not believe such a base insinuation.
Mrs. Chappins had no doubt seen the prisoner without her
husband's knowledge, for perhaps the best intention and
purest reason—that of trying to end the legal proceedings
between them, and it was most shameful that advantage of
such an act should be taken for the basest purpose. The
sentence of the Court was that the prisoner be kept in
prison for 18 calendar months with hard labour.

TILE LATE EXTRAORDINARY ROBBERY OF POST-OFFICE
MONEY-ORDER .CORGIS.

Henry Charles Watson was indicted with stealing, forg-
ing, and uttering a number of Post-office money-orders,
whereby the Post-office authorities had been defrauded to
the extent of nearly £6OO. It will be recollected that a
short time ago a very artful but ingenious fraud was per-
petrated upon a postmaster at Netherstowey, in Somerset-
shire, by a person who represented himself to be an in-
spector of the Post-office. • The prisoner succeed in obtain-
ing possession of nearly 400 blank forms, with the letters
of advice, and the money-orders the prisoner had presented
for payment were made out on some of the forms stolen on
that occasion.

The postmaster at Netherstowey was examined at great
length, and repeated the evidence he gave at Bow-street.
The case was proceeding when we went to press.

THE LORD CHANCELLOR is, we hear, engaged in
drawing up a bill to deal with a.ll, offence which has lately
become alarmingly prevalent in the political world. It is
to be entituled, "An Act for the better Prevention of
Embethelment."—Pall-mall Gazette.

The satisfaction demanded by the Italian Go-
vernment from the Viceroy of Egypt for ill-treat-
ment inflicted on some Italian sailors at Alexandria was
accorded on the 24th ult. Mustapha Boy, sub-Director of
Police, has been diSmissod. Several other superior police
agents have also been discharged. Tho cavasses, or police-
men, who had struck the Italian sailors, are severely
punished, and other offenders are exiled. The Prefect of
Police went to the Italian Consulate to tender an apology,
and a superior Egyptian officer went at the same time on
board the Etna to offer a similar excuse to its commander ;
likewise the Governor of Alexandria officially informed
the Consulate of the great dissatisfaction felt by the Vice-
roy in consequence of the outrage complained of.
TIIE DRAMATIC COLLEGE.—Mr. Benjamin Web-
ster, the Master of the Royal Dramatic College, has had
the honour of receiving the following gratifying commu-
nication from Lieut.-General Knollys :—" Marlborough-
house, Pall-mall, S.W., Juno 9. Dear Sir—l have the
pleasure of forwarding, by desire of the Prince of Wales, a
check for 50 guineas, in aid of the Dramatic College. His
Royal Highness has directed me to add how much he was
satisfied with the manner in which the business of the day
was conducted on Monday last, under your superinten-
dence, and that the institution has his best wishes for its
success.—l am, dear sir, very truly yours, W. KNOUTS."

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.—This Day.

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

A GENTLEMAN CHARGED WITH PLUCKING FLOWERS IN
KENSINGTON - GARDENS. - Edward Montagu Woodford,
residing at No. 39, Upper Charlotte-street, Fitzroy-square,
was charged before Mr. Yardley with wilfully destroying
flowers in the enclosure of Kensington-gardens, the pro-
perty of the Commissioners of Public Works.

Henry Topp, park constable No. 44, said that on Sunday
afternoon he saw the defendant damaging one of the rose
trees by plucking off seven roses. He afterwards saw the
defendant pluck two pinks.
The defendant attended the court yesterday on bail, but
left before the case was called on.

In answer to the charge the 'defendant said he had taken
a little ,too much and it got into his head, and he did not
know what he was doing.
Mr. Yardley said he saw the defendant was described as
a gentleman. It was not a gentlemanly thing for him to
have acted as he had done. , The flowers were not grown
for only his (defendant's) gratification, but for millions of
others. It was a mean, shabby thing for the defendant to
pick the flowers planted for the public good.
The park constable said, the damage amounted to 2s. 6d.

Mr. Yardley said it would serve the defendant right to
send the defendant to gaol. As it was, he should order
him to pay 2s. Gd. for the damage, and a fine of 405., or 14
days' imprisonment.
THE CHAR= AGAINST A MAGICIAN.—WiIIiam Frederick
Albert, described as a magician, and who was formerly
assistant to Herr Wiljalba Frikell, appeared on remand,
charged with obtaining a box containing clothes, ezc., the
property of Alex. Hoffmann, by false pretences.
On the case being called on for hearing,

Mr. S. Pittman stated to the court that he appeared for
the defendant, and that from the statement made to him,
and the evidence he had to call, it would appear there was
no real case against the defendant, and subject to the ap-
proval of the court ho (Mr. Pittman) had recommended
that the box in dispute, which was then in court, should
be given up to complainant and the defendant discharged.

The constable said the box was in court and had been
examined, and it now contained all the complainant
claimed.

The magistrate said he perfectly approved of this course
being adopted, and having inquired whether the defendant
had been out on bail, and been answered in the affirmative
immediately discharged him.
