MAR YLEB ONE.

George Woodford, a young man with a flourishing crop
of red hair, residing at No. 43, Frederick-street, Bator
stead-road, was placed at the bar before Mr. Shutt, on a
charge of having threatened the life of Miss Charlotte
Reid, a young lady to whom he had unsuccessfully paid
his addresses.
It appeared from the evidence of the complainant, wh°
resides at No. 26, Cumberland-street, in the above neig,ll-
- that for some time past the prisoner had visited
her in the character of a suitor, but having latterly beconfo
acquainted with a young man whom she liked better, she
gave him the sack, and told him not to come teazing ber
any more. Upon this he flew into a towering passion, swore he
would not resign his right of possession to the King him"
self, and with sword and pistol would annihilate any one
who dared to oppose him. She begged of him to be calf°
and resigned, as it was impossible they could ever be united
in the silken bonds of hymen. He, however, vowed that
he would have her " whether she would let him or no,
and when he came to visit her on the previous evening, she
refused to see him any more. Upon this being made knowa
to him, he refuse to quit the place, and became quit°
frantic. A policeman was called, when he cried out in a
paroxysm of despair, " Yes, take me to the station-house,
I wish to go there, for if I am left at liberty I shall certainly
shoot this young lady, her lover, and myself." He was ac-
cordingly locked up for security.
Mr. SIIUTT (to prisoner)—Will you promise not to g°
near the young Woman again ? George (sighing)—Alas, ,
can make no such promise: She's got my heart, and
must follow it.
Charlotte—Yon see his determination, Sir. My life's
not safe—l wish for protection.
George.—Nor mine either—l'll hang myself. No, that i
won't do ; Well, I'll make a hole in the water. Don't much
fancy that. Oh, I've just thought of it, I'll blow my brains
out with a pistol—blow'd if I don't now."
Mr. SIIUTT.—You must find sureties to keep the pcact
George—Yes, my sureties will be a cord round my nee
Charlotte—For God's sake don't hang yourself.
George—No, but for your sake I shall be forced to d°
The love-sick swain was then locked up in default of bald
William Wilkinson, and a well-dressed female, named
Frances Richards, who have long imposed on the nobility
