wise to pay some very small bills which she owed to a person
who had given her bread and other articles, and when these
accounts were settled she would go anywhere.
Mr. MlNstiuu. then inquired of the sons of the landlady,
who were present, what kind of a place it was where the old
woman was kept, and what they gave her to eat; and they
described the room, and mentioned that she bad tea, coffee,
and eggs in the morning, and was very well used. They
gave her every thing she required for nothing, and she was
attended by an orphan child who lived in the house.
At the earnest desire of Mr. MiNsitt:LL, the poor creature
at last consented to go imrnAiately to the Ophthalmic lies-
pital, and she was told that every attention would there be
paid to her, and when she recovered her sight, or was con-
sidered in a fit state to go about her property, she would be
discharged. Ste left the office accompanied by an officer and
Mrs. Grace, who were reqaested to see her safely conducted
to the Hospital ; and the Magistrate ordered her to receive,
when admitted, the sum of 10i. front the poor-box of this
office.

HA7'TON- GARDEN.
Yesterday Stephen Jordan, the driver of the cabriolet No.
299, was brought before Messrs. RooEns and Wurnsm,
charged by John Green, the driver of the cabriolet No. 45.
with being drunk and furious driving, injuring his cab, and
assaulting him.
Mr. WITHAM said that very shortly, he was happy to state,
an Act of Parliament would empower the Magistrates to
commit such fellows at once to the treadmill ; he consulted
v ith Mr. RooEßs, and they convicted the prisoner in
and
fur the assault on the prosecutor, and unless the money was
paid, he v ould be committed to the House of Correction for
four months.
He was eventually taken to prison, in default of payment.

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.
John Symes, who desc:ibcd himself as a medical student
tforn the country, liviog at No. 3, Dean-street, Borough,
was placed at the bar before Mr. CHAMBERS and Mr. HALL,
charged with having violently assaulted John Hawkins, of
Conduit court.
A policeman saw the blood spinning from the complainant's
heal, while the defendant was striking him:with a stick. The
tick was handed to the Magistrate. It was nearly as thick
as a man's wrist; had a large knob, and was apparently capa-
ble of felling an ox.
Mr. CHAMBERS directed the individual who had been
pointed out by the complainant to be also included in the
c‘lar,;Te of assault.
Mr. John ROT, tailor, of Great Marlborcu.sh-street,
accordinly p!ae d before the bar.
The defence of the accused was that they had been first
at tacked.
The Bench were of opinion that the assaults had been
proved, and the fine of 31. was inflicted on Mr. Syracs, and
2/. on Mr. Rdley. The money was immediately paid.
Mr. CHAMBERS remark: that no person of any r.speta-
bility would carry about with him such a formidable stick as
that used by Mr. Symcs.
Mr. Symes, on receiving back his stick, said on quitting
the office that he should have no ditEoul7 in proving that his
respectability wan quite equal to that of the Magistrate who
had fined him.

QUEEN- S Q UA RE.
Caroline White, a girl only seventeen years of ate, was
yesterday brought up for rc-exam,nation, charged with lite-
rally stripping; her mistress's house in Culeshill-street, Pimlico.
lint. Elizabeth Morgan, a widow lady, went about six weeks
ago to Margate, leaving the prisencr in charge of the house,
the different apartments of which were locked, with the excep-
tion of those left for the prisoner's Ire. On her return, about
three weeks since, she discovered that every lock had been
forced, and that two gold watches, a quantity of jewellery,
linen, and furniture of different descriptions had been carried
off, amounting in value to nearly one hundred pounds. The
prisoner, who had the effrontery to declare she knew nothing
about it, was then given into custody, and much time has been
occupied in endeavouring to apprehend a young man who is
strongly suspected of having assisted in the robbery.
The prisoner was fully committed for trial.
