_Peters, a watchman of Sc;t; James pa
. -:
dte'posed, that about ball past two o'clock, this
morning a hackney-coach turned the corner of Hus-
band and.Pet-er--streets, got fast inn the,cirrner post ;
the ';,,enc,,s's 'was speaking to a lamplighter at the
tinie the ioachinan (the prisotierl; never called to
ahem to assist hint in extricating the coach ; they
tried:with their whole force; ‘bit..were not able to
; whiWthey- were .using their exertions, a
atchnian of St.. Anne's parish came up, and charged
the ptisener with being tare - person who was leiter-
ingcs about Wardour-street with-his-coach. •
Janies Wood, Watchman of,St. Anne's parish, de-
posed, that at half past one o'clock he perceived the
coach; with two men on the box, step: at.Tyler's-
come, Wardous-s reel ; he was going his rounds,
calling the hour ;.oti his return, the prisoner was pre-
parrn,_ to dri‘e oti, and .called out to his companion,
" t, all in, is al; sate. ?" and being answered in the
affirmative, drove off. At tt o o'clock he percei'red
:he same coach corning up the street ; he secreted
himself io patch them. They stopped at the same
place. He went his rounds, calling two o'clock ; on
his return, sbe prisoner was driving off; his com-
panion was gone. The witness followed the coach,
Until it got taston the post,wheu he charged the pri-
seeer with being in• Wardour-street ; he denied ii,
arid said he had lost his coach,at 101 past tenp'clock,
and had only then found, it in Oxford-road.
The witness desired the Prisoner to go to the
!wild of the horses, and guide them, while the others
lilted the carriage oE: ; when he got to the horses'
head, he ran away. On examining the coach, they
found eight reams of printing paper on the seats,;
they got the carriage extricated, and drove to Se.
James's watch- Louse; and lodged the paper--; they
afterwards drove to the owner of, the carriage, in
Chancery-lane, who said the Prisoner had been
there about half an hour before, and said his car-
riage had been stolen off- the stand at ten o'clock,.
whhe he was eating his supper, and that .he had
been until that time looking h.r it, without success.
0. the witness and the other watchman returning
to St. James's watch-house, they found the Pri-
son r ; he had called to inquire after the carrage ;
and, from the description the witness gave of his
person, the constable of the night detained him.
The Prisoner, in hisdetence, told the old story of
has ag lost the carriage, and that it could not hsve
been a coachman who was driving, or he would not
ha. e run foul of the post.
The watchman was certain as to the rerson of the
Prisoner. He was committed for further examina-
tion on this day se'nnight.
A fellow; in the occupation- of a lamplighter in
Mat y -te-none parish, named Glover, alias Iran b ull,
was charged by a reapeelable young Scotehman,
nam.d Alex. Campbell, with a earst wanton and
tatordge us assault. Mr. Campbell stated, that he
was passing quietly along Oxtot'd-street, about ten
o'clock on Sunday night last ; when the Prisoner,
with a ladder on his shoulder, had his blazing bUrner
in his hand, which he wantonly drew across Mr.
Campbell's breeches, and greased and scorched them
Very much. The fellow, at a few paces forward,
mounted his ladder to trins a lamp ; Mr. Campbell
went up to. him to remonstrate on -the injury • and
itisu,t he had recei‘ed, and asked hint his reason for
friving acted as he had done. The prison, r answer-
ed in the most insulting language, d--d Mr. Camp-
bell's eyes, told him be would serve him in the same
way again, and attually rammed the blazing buroir
in his lace and eyes, and scorched and scalded him
dreadfully. Mr. Campbell, deprived of his vision by
this outrage, yet blind as he *was, scrambled to seize.
the fellow, who, instantly with a blow ot his fist on
the temple, knocked -Mr. C. down.. He gut up again;
and, guided by the blows still dealt about his head
and, face, at length grappled with the fellow, and
knocked him down twice, and he was taken into
custoey, and brought to the watch-house.
- w o other respeCtable witnesses corroborated these
• fads.
Three persons, viz.-a liVery-stable-keeper, one of
his ostlers, and alow tradesman in Oxford-street, of-
fered. to swear the very contrary, and to throw the
-origin of the affray on Mr. Campbell, whose face was
in so dreadful a way that he was not abld to attend
sooner, and give hiS evidence.
Mr. BRODIE, however, would give no credit to
those witnesses; but told them to attend on the
trial, and give their evidence before a Jury. Nei-
ther would he take any bail for the Prisoner, after so
atrocious an outrage, but committed him for trial.

GUILDHALL.—Yesterday John Lgary, who was
chargeu with wounding a child in the head, was
oval brought up, when the child attended.
She stated, that, coming trout School on Wed-
nesday, about 12 o'clock, With two of her school-
fehows, they. passed near the Prisoner's Jadder, 'and
one of them spat
..thrOngh it, when the prisoner
threw his scissars at her,- and cut her in the head.
Tue Prisoner solemnly protested the injury was
purely accidental ; he was 'himself the father of five
srmill children, -and was incapable of cruelty. The
fact e as, his son, a boy of ten years old, was on the
13 i,ier, and he at the foot of it, trimming the burner
otthe i.imp ; and the children, in passing by, spat'
it, and fearing they might, in their play,
throw it down, he made a motion with his baud,
in w‘ ich the scissars were, bidding them go about ,
then business, when the scissars flew out of his hand,
and injured the child. ,
He s as again remanded till Saturday, that the sur-
geon rulgt:t report whether any danger was to be ap-
preoended from the wound.
