C.RIMINAL COURT-(THIS DAY.)

OLD COURT.
(Before the Recorier.)
John Judge, 33, porter, and a respectably-dressed man
named Taylor, were indicted, Judge for stealing a num-
ber of pieces of carpeting, the property of Messrs. Sim-
cox, George, and Price, the masters of Judge, and Tay-
lor for receiving the same, knowing them to have been
stolen.
Mr. Robinson and Mr. Sleigh prosecuted, and Mr.
Clarkson and Mr. Ballantine defended Taylor.

It appeared that the prosecutors are carpet dealers in
Newgate-street, and, from some information which had
been given, two City detectives, named Packmans and
Mark Bull, watched Judge from the prosecutors' pre-
mises, and saw that he was ♦ery bulky about the body.
After following him for some time, they saw Judge go
into the shop of Taylor, who keeps a marine store in
Wilton-street, Cripplegate. The officers, after walking
outside the shop for a short time, went in and asked
Judge what he was doing there. Judge, who was at that
time in the act of fastening up his trousers, said he came
to bny a door knob. They then said that they were
officers, and had come to take Judge into custody for
having stolen some carpeting from his employers. Judge
denied having brought any. They then questioned
Taylor, who said he had not bought any carpeting, or
had any in his shop. They then wont round behind a
heap of rags, where ho had been standing, and there
found a piece, which was subsequently recognised by
prosecutors as being similar to some which they had
missed front their stock.
A number of witnesses were called, who gave Taylor
a very good character.
The Jury, after some deliberation, said they could not
agreo without retiring. His lordship then directed that
they should be locked up ; and they had net returned
into court when we went to press.

MIRLBO.ROUGII-STREET.-(THIS DAY.)

ASSAULT ON ♦ BARONET.

Joseph. May, a carman, was placed at the bar before
Mr. Bingham, charged with assaulting Sir Belford Wil-
son, K.C.8., 130, Park-street, Grosvenor-square, under
the following circumstances :
Sir Belford Wilson stated that about half-past four
yesterday afternoon he was driving with his wife and
child down Park-lane, when the prisoner, who was driv-
ing a timber waggon with three horses, passed him. In
passing complainant, the defendant's centre hors. made a
snap and tried to bite his (complainant's) horse. Witness
flourished his whip, with a view of diverting the horse
from his purpose, and had no sooner passed than he felt
a blow of a whip over his shoulders, which also struck his
wife and child. Witness immediately stopped and taxed
the defendant with the offence, when he (defendant)
became exceedingly insolent and abusive. Complainant
then directed his groom to fetch a constable, upon
whose arrival defendant was given in charge.
William Good, groom in the service of Sir Belford
Wilson, proved seeing the defendant with his heavy
cart-whip strike Sir Belford over the shoulder intention-

ally.
Defendant, in answer to the charge, expressed his
sorrow, and humbly apologised to Sir Belford for his

conduct.
Sir Belford Wilson said, had defendant apologised on
the instant he should not have given him in charge.
Mr. Bingham fined defendant 205., or ten days.
