Mr. Harmer, the attorney, appeared On belj,
Messrs. Street and Eve, who are connede:#
the Satirist, and stated that Messrs. Bondanejo
the parties charged on a warrant with haili
niously assaulted Mr. Eve, with intent to ,l 1
him, had given notice of their intention to au,
themselves into custody that night at seven
at this office, and he wished to know if lII°

As the hour of eight approached, the °VI'
came crowded to excess, and it is a long rime '
we witnessed such an assemblage of "
upon the Town."
Sir R. BIRNIE expressed some impatience ti,
deity of businesQ, occasioned by the rarties
pearing, and also his doubts as to whether
not all a hoax," when Messrs. Ailey and')
presented themselves upon the Bench.

Mr. Alley—Let me tell you, Mr. Harmer'
j
when a client of mine is Charged with a c°,:i
felony, it would be utterly impossible for ale tbi
so improperly as to advise him not tosurrender

self into custody.
Mr. Harmer-1 conceived the party might
been so advised, because I told Mr.. Henss°
day when he called upon me, that I should Pry
cluirge of capital felony against them. rli
Mr. Phill ps —I came here, supposing mY,
would surrender; but you see what a drea'utl
night it is—(Laughter)—it is shocking bad vos

Mr. Alley (the rain pouring in torrents °Pt'
sky-light of the cflice), assuming a gravity
not sit very easily upon his physiognomy, °l't
that iL was not a night fit for a dog to go otithe,
the absence of his client must be owing to
clemency of the weather.—(Laughter.) toi
S r RICHARD BSRNIE ordered the officer 10

Mr. Alley—Wed, the rain seems somewhat '
