five are insane, or suffering under rule of imprisornent ;
the remainder are principally to stand their trial for rob-
beries of arms, outrageous assaults, and appearing in arms ;
two for wilful murder, three for abduction, and six for rape.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.

GUILDHALL.

A young man appliedfor a summons against the beadle of
St. Bartholomew•le-Great, for not fulfilling a contract made
with him to give him 51. if he would marry a young woman
of that parish. The beadle gave him his word of honour
that, on producing a certificate of such a marriage, he should
have the reward. He married the young woman, who had
a natural child, and on exhihiting the marriage certificate,
the beadle put a paper into his wife's hand, and desired
that it might not be looked at till he had shut his door. This
condition was of course complied with, but on opening the
paper, it was found to contain only 2/. l Os.. being only half
the sum promised.
Sir CHAPMAN MARSHALL said it was not in his power
to afford the applicant redress ; but it appeared to him to
be a matter within the jurisdiction of the Court of Re-
quests, because a promise to pay a sum made the party
promising a debtor to that amount.
The applicant promised to resort to that remedy.

QUEEN SQUARE.
William Robert Grose, a police constable of the B divi-
sion, was charged yesterday before Mr. GREGORIE with
robbing another policeman, named Richardson.
He was remanded for further examination until Friday.

UN lON HALL.
Yesterday Mr. Robinson, a medical man residing at Pim-
lico, attended to answer a charge of assault preferred against
him by his wife.
Mrs. Robinson, who is a young woman, lived apart from
her husband, who called at her lodgings at Vauxhall on
Wednesday, accompanied by a large dog ; some angry words
having passed between them she took up the poker for the
purpose of turning the dog out of the room, and, when
about to strike the animal, her husband interposed, and
struck her.
The defendant admitted having called at his wife's lodg-
ings, with a view to see his children, accompanied by his
dog ; that on his entrance into her apartment he found a
young man belonging to the medical profession there, and,
having strong grounds of suspicion that he and Mrs. Robin-
son were carrying on an improper intimacy, he desired the
young man to quit the house. Some high words arose after
this ; and when the person alluded to left the room Mrs.
Robinson took up the poker and struck him (the complai-
nant) .over the head, and also broke his spectacles. Mr.
Robinson here exhibited his hat, which was damaged on the
crown at the time in question, and it was fortunate for him
that it was on his head, otherwise he would have received
some injury. His spectacles were also exhibited, and they
were broken in the affray.
The Magistrate inquired who the young man was against
whom lie entertained suspicions of an intimacy with Mrs.
Robinson ?
The defendant said that his name was Robert Fullerton
Scott, and that he had repeatedly warned him to keep
away from his wife, and he (defendant) bad also cautioned
his wife as to the impropriety of encouraging the visits of
that young man.
Mr. JEREMY here remarked that Mr. Scott had taken
out a warrant against the defendant, under the apprehen-
sion that he went in bodily fear of him. The Magistrat •
