POLICE INTELLIGEN 'E.

MARYLEBONE..— Carpenter Phillips, aged
17, was placed at the bar before Mr. Broughton, charged
with having robbed his master, Mr. Henry Pike, 7,
Newcastle-place, Edgware-road, of cash and other pro-
perty to a considerable amount.

Sergeant Haseltine said that upon a future day he
should be able to prove a former conviction for felony
against the prisoner.
Mr. Broughton, in order to afford time for the officer
to institute other inquiries, remanded the prisoner, who
had nothing to say, till Monday next.

WORSHIP-STREET.—Charles Smith, 50, a
cian, Thomas Hardy, a hawker, and Thomas Lewis, a
weaver, were charged with outrages upon their wives.
In Smith's case, the wife stated that she sat up waiting
for her husband till nealmidnight, when he returned
home furious with chink, and, after loading her with the
vilest epithets he could think of, swore that he would
dash her brains out ; and, grasping hold of the poker,
levelled such a terrible blow at the side of her head with
it that, if it had taken effect, the woman said it must
have instantly killed her. She stooped, however, and
so evaded part of the force of it • on seeing which,
the prisoner levelled a second blow at her head,
and, not so fortunate in escaping it this time,
the poker descended heavily upon her shoulder, injuring
her very much. "He is constantly Musing me in this
way, sir, and I am always in great danger of losing my
life through him."
Mr. Hammill sentenced this man, who simply pleaded
intoxication, to be imprisoned for six months in the

House of Correction, and kept to hard labour, and to
provide bail for his peaceable behaviour for six mouths

more.

In Lewis's case, King, a constable of the H division,
was on duty in Charlton-street, Bethnall-green, at a late
hour at night on the 18th ult., when he heard a woman
uttering terrifying screams ; and, upon hastening up,
found the prisoner's wife in the street, almost naked,
her mouth bleeding profusely, and so contused and
swollen " as to have the appearance of a piece of liver."
She complained that her husband had inflicted these in-
juries, and detailed another injury of so brutal and inde-
cent a character that it cannot be stated. Notwith-
standing this both the woman ierself and her married
daughter positively refused to give any evidence against
the man, the wife protesting that it was all her own
fault, and, though they were both obliged to confess to
former and repeated illusage,_ they obstinately perse-
vered in screening him all they could.
Mr. Hammill said they were evidently trying to con-
ceal all the facts, but more than sufficient had been eli-
cited to establish the case, and he should therefore sen-
tence the prisoner (who had been remanded since the
18th, and expressed great contrition) to three months'
imprisonment in addition.
Hardy's wife, whose countenance was shockingly con-
tused, said—l was in Shoreditch at half-past 11 last
night, looking for my living, which is that of a prosti-
tute, as my husband, who will not work, has refused to
support me, and I am therefore obliged to support him
in that manner, when he came up and told me to go
with him. I did so, to his mother's, when he struck
me with his fist, tore all my clothes, called me scanda-
lous names, and then again dealt me a blow on one of
my eyes. I ran home to get another bonnet, as he had
crushed the first, and went into Hare-street, when
I found him following me. I ran into a beer-shop to
escape him, but he followed me in, dragged me out, and
struck me again heavily upon my left eye, injuring it as
it now appears. I have only been married to him two
years, but he has beaten me in this way a great
many times.
Emery, 92 H.—Seeing the wife crying and running as
fast as she could, with the prisoner close behind her, I
stopped and took him, and she gave him in charge. On
the road to the station he declared he would do for her,
if he had to wait six months in prison to do it ; and this
morning, on leaving the station, he declared to me that
he would be revenged upon her.
Sergeant Busaine—While just outside the court this
morning I heard the prisoner threaten his wife, " If you
send me to prison I'll do for you ; recollect there's more
ways than one to do it."
The prisoner stoutly denied all that his wife had
stated, but
Mr. Hernial sentenced him, like the first, to be im-
prisoned in the House of Correction for six months, and
kept to bard labour, and, to insure protection to the
wife against further Waage, ordered him, in addition, to
put in substantial sureties fc- hi 3 ViOV,: or m tut,
