MR. MARTIN'S ACT.

'Bow-STREET.—Yesterday John Peale, the ttell.coachman
who was accused by the witnesses brought .by Mr. Martin on
'Thursday, with being the man whO was guilty of acts of
cruelty to a horse in the Strand on Saturday night last, ap-
peared again before Mr. Mists"' cm., as 'did %Vella, the man
originally summoned. Peate produced as ,his witnesses, to
prove his entire innocence, Mr. Sanson, a gentleman residing in
Bryanstone-square, and a waterman who attended a coach-
stand. inAdam-street, Portman-square. The latter swore that
Peate was on the stand mentioned from five minutes past six
till 20 minutes: before seven on-Saturday evening,-and Mr. San-
son said thathe hired his coach at that titne.to take him and his
family to the Haymarket Theatre, and he waited to bring them
back when the performances were over.—Upon this evidence
Mr. Martin consented to withdraw the information, and the
case was dismissed. Peate.complained bitterly of the loss of
time, and other inconveniences he had-suffered by being falsely
accused. AMMO
THE TABLES TURNED.
HAT T ow-GARDE N.--Yesterday 'Nicholas TVard, a person
of genteel appearance, residing at No. 67, Hatton•garden, was
brought up by John .Pick worth, an occasional night-constable'
of that Liberty. Pickworth deposed that as he was on Thurs-
day morning, at about one o'clock, passing the corner of Cross-
street, Hatton-garden, the prisoner and another person whistled
and shouted in the jockey or groom style • upon which he turned
round and asked them whether they took him for a horse, they
replied that they did not, but proceeded.to.call him by very op-
probrious epithets,; in consequence of which he gave them
into the charge of the constable of the night, by whom one of
them was released, ,there being no actual proof of his having
offended the delicate .ears of the " occasional" night constable
to the same extent as his boisterous companion, who now
stood before Mr. Sergeant SELLot: to answer this very serious
charge of ", whistling and hooting." Pickworth was proceed-,
ing in a very animated strain to expose his own grievances, and
what he considered to be a breach of the publicpeace, accord-'
ing to the opinions lately laid down, when he,was interrupted
by Mr. Sergeant SELLON, and desired to state whether the de-.
fendant had struck him. To this he replied that he certainly
had not committed such an outrage, but that his conduct alto-
gether was of a description which rendered his apprehension
proper, and perfectly within the limits of what he (Pickworth)
conceived to be the legal authority of the guardians of the night.
The defendant when called, upon met the charge with an abso-
lute denial of the facts, and.stated. that.Pickworth alone was the
aggressor, he having, without cause or provocation, assailed him
with very virulent language,at a moment when he was in ear-
nest conversation with his friend, alaw-stationer, relative to
some property in Norfolk, of which he was about to dispose,
and that, so far from his having made any noise, the tone in
which they conversed was so low, that it seas impossible fora
person to distinguish what they said at a distance of three, feet.
The defendant further stated, that the conduct of Pickworth,
in interrupting their conversation, and using virulent lan-
guage, was such.as to induce him to threaten to put him into
the watch-house, upon which Pickworth retorted a similar
threat, and put it into execution against himself and his friend.
To corroborate this statement, Mr. Ward called his friend, the
law stationer, who confirmed it in every point,"-with the simple
admission of their having, in.the heat of the moment, called
Pickworth a humbug.
Mr. Serjeant SEL LON here observed, that Pickworth had
not been justified in his conduct :towards the Defendant, and
that he was bound to offer the most ample apology to Mr.
Ward, as it was not to be supposed that a constable could be
justined in confining a person upon such a charge. Even had
the language been brought home to the defendant, and the
words " fool and scoundrel," than :which nothing could be
more opprob:ious, been used,. there still would not have been
ground for the arrest and imprisonment.
Mr. Ward hastily interrupted Mr. Sergeant Sellon, to ob-
serve that he did not consider the dismissal of the constable
with a mere reprimand as a sufficient atonement for the out-
rage which had been inflicted upon his personal liberty, and
that he would 'assuredly carry the matter further ; but upon
the Learned Magistrate advising him to accept the apology and
let the matter rest, he agreed to do so, provided it was .offered
in the course of the day.

MELANCHOLY CASE—ATTEMPTED SUICIDE.
MARYLEnowz-OFFicr.—Yesterday a poor man named
Laban .11 orris, a shoemaker, residing at No. 29, Great James-
street, Lisson-grove,. attended at this office in a very weak state
of health, to ask adVice how he should proceed to obtain the
reward given by the Royal Humane Society, to which he felt
himself entitled, in consequence of having saved the lives of two
individuals at the risk of his own life.
The poor fellow stated that he had been for a considerabh
period.laid up with indisposition, and was not able to walk from
his lodgings until Sunday last, when at the invitation of hi:
brother he accompanied him to the Regent's-park for the be-
nefit of the air, and they took their station on one of. the
bridges over the canal, where they met with a friend, with
.whom they entered into conver ..tion. In a short time their

attention was attracted by the extraordinary conduct 0-f grido
