POLICE.

Bow-STREET.--On Saturday Ntri Abraharh Haft
Braham, of Villiers-street, Strand, charged Mr. M.
Thompson, of the Salllo steet, with assisting iu
making a disturbance in the Theatre. This was
most positively contradicted by several witnesses who
sat near them.

Mr. Thompson then preferred his charge against
Mr. Braham, for a violent assault and knocking bias
down. He said, that he was in the Pit standing on a
seat with oi her persons, and during the performance,
after some conversation that took place relative to
the coudu& of Mr. Brabant, a scuffle ensued, the
Prisoner struck him yiolentiy with his fist on his
breast, and knocked him down, and the Only of-
fence he had given him was being pushed against
him by other persons, which he coulti not possibly
avoid.

This statement was confirmed by Mr. G. Purse, a
silverstnith, of the Strand, who stated, that in a pres•
sure and scuffle Mr. Thompson was struck a violent
blow by Mr. Braham on his breast.
Mr. Bra!ram was ordered to find bail, which he

Lewis Vandudace, the younger, was brought in
the custody of Mr. Bell, the High Constable for the
Holborn Division, who said he saw the prisoner on
the third seat of the Pit, while great noise and dis-
turbance was making‘ there, and heard the prisoner
exclaim, as if speaking to some persons in the Boxes,
Now is your time for the 0. P.'s to sing out for the
old prices," and produced a paper with 0. P. on it,
and bad one in his hat with " 0. P, and Clifford for
ever ," after which he blew a,born, similar to those
used by guards of coaches, upon which he knocked
it out of his hand, having first advised him not to
blow it, but he persisted in doing it: .
The prisoner acknowledged blowing the horn;
he also acknowledged having 0. P, in his hat and
hand, but denied speaking to any person or persons
in the boxes. -Mr. READ '-asked the prisoner who
and what he was ? The prisoner• said his father
was a notary public, and resided in Wellclose-square.
The Magistrate soid that he must find bail, which
not being able to do at the moment, he was ordered
iato custody. About twclye he foand bail,
