BOW-STREET.-(THIS DAY.)

Louis Lombarde, an Italian, vas charged with assaulting
an 1 attempting to stab three persons belonging to the Ro-
man Catholic Chapel in Duke-street, Lincoln's Inn-fields.
It appeared from the evidence of Thomas Moxhay, the
clerk at the chapel, and which was confirmed by witnesses,
that this morning at 10 o'clock the prisoner came to the chapel
and prNnted a note for Dr. Bellacone, who desired him
'to call again on the following day. The prisoner upon
this endeavoured to follow the Doctor into the chapel, and
on Moxhay trying to prevent him, he struck him a violent
blow on the face. The beadle interfered, and was also
struck ; Collins, a street-keeper, came up at this time, when
the prisoner drew a sword from a cane-stick, and made several
thrusts with it at Collins, who closed with him, and after a
desperate struggle succeeded in wrenching the sword from
his hand, and which was bent nearly double in the scuffle.
The prisoner was ultimately secured, and brought to the
office in custody.
The prisoner in defence said the clerk struck him first,
and he merely drew his sword in order to defend himself.
Mr. Miss'inu, directed the prisoner's friends to be sent
for, and said he should require good bail for his future ap-
' pearance before he would part with him. He was then
locked up. -

TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.
—I observe in your paper of yesterday a paragraph
stating that two Factories, and the Poor's-house in this
town, were burnt down, and that the artillery had been
sent for from Woolwich, I presume to keep us in order.
Allow me to inform you that I do not recollect the time
When the inhabitants of this town were more peaceably cFs
posed, and I have been a constant resident here for nearly
thirty years. I have been accustomed to attach some cre-
dit to the statements put forth in your paper ; but when I
attended 'Change this afternoon, I found every gentleman
there laughing at your credulity. If you have any wish to
maintain your character and respectability with the mer-
chants of Manchester, I would recommend you to be a
little more circumspect in your choice of correspondents.
I am, Sir,
Your most obedient. Servant,
Manchester, Nov. 24, 1836. W. B. HARRISON.
[lf our respectable correspondent will look at the I ara-
graph again, be will see that it was only given as a report,
and not as fact. From what source the report origina-
ted on, 'Change we cannot say ; but there was a eery
anxious feeling in London till the correct account arrived
from Manchester.]—ED. SUN.
