LO DON SESSIO'sg.

' Yesterday the- REcaßbrpt operied. the Lonitten
Sesions, in Guildhall. After the usual routine of
sweAiin_.; the.iirand and Petty .lurie4; &e. which
took ❑p a considerable tithe. , .

Edipitraltiono was brought to the Bar, by
John Pi!;:c, a constable, charged with a mos.t out-
rageous assalt. It appeared, in evidence, that the
prisoner went„ on the-21st of. September, to the
house of the prosecutor, with another man, and a
girl Of the town. They had some refreshments :
but angry wordS' soon arose between the girl ..and
the prisoner, upon which she observed, that she
was 'not afraid of being ill-treated by-him then, as
She was in the'city of London ~and as a constable ,
Was by, pointing to the prosecutor.. She added,
' that he ought to keep quiet, as he was a known
thief, and hail no other_ mode of At this
accusation the prisoner sprung across the table
to the woman, got hold- of her,. and. used her most
barbarOusly. Tbeprosecut6r eventato her assist-.
ante, and drew out .his staf of oflice. This only_
hdd the effect still more-to enrage the prisoner ;
be left the woman to 41y at, the prosecutor, wrest-,
cd his staff frinn Jrimn, beat, bun severely on the
bead and across the face", and almost overpowered
him. .The prosecutor, however, contrived to
gain the street door, and springinghis rattle, soon.
brought to his assistance all tl4e. guardians of the
night in the neighbourhood. But here another
setae ensued, for the. prisoner zwore-he would
mot be brought to the watch-house; he was, how-
ever, secured, after a violent scuffle, and was
now brought to atone for his outrageous con-
duct.

All the facts' tire: e clearly. proved by the prose-
cutor• and ,other witnesses; the prisdner was, be
sides, identified by the officers, as a notorious
fender belonging-'to Trueman's gang, who had
been guilty of so .daring a rescue, some time, ago,
in the neighbourhood of Smithfield. He waS
found. Guilty, and sentenced to twelve months
imprisonment. .
The Court was afterwards' occupied in the trial
of several persons for keeping disorderly houses
in Still-alley;. but we shall not obtrude the disgust-
ing details on our readers, •

MIDDLESEX SESSiONS, OCT. 26.

'The SesSions cOminenced thiS clay at Clerken-
well before Mr. MA/NW ,kEING and a Bench of Jus-
tices. '

Alfred Lemon was indicted for assaulting Thos.
Brayn on the 20th Aug. last.
The prosecutor was about nine, and the defen-
dant about eleven years of age. On the day men-
tioned ,-be two boys were playing at trap-hall,
when the servant of the prosecutor came to call
him to dinner ; he took up his trap-ball. prepara-
tory to obeying t=ie summons, when the defendant
:objected to his going till the game was finished,
and threatened if he did go to stone 'him 'him ; the
proseeutor; however, was walking away, when the
defendant took hold of him with one hand, and
• with a stone he had in the other, gav eh im a violent
blow in the face, which broke his nose; the stir-
:, geonts bill amounted 'to 11. 7s. Bd. Mr. Brayn
applied to Mr. Lemon on the subject, and required
him to punish his son• for his misconduct, and to
-pay the surgeon's bill ; , with neither of which
requests' be would comply ; and in consequence
of his refusal, he had commenced the present pro-
secution.

My: ALLEY: for the defendant, said, that he
should be able to pf•L've not only that. the prosecu-
tor had first assaulted' the defendant, but also that
the defendant's father tiad punished him severely
upon the representation of Mr. Brayn,,nrid, also,
that he was ready to pay the surgeon's bill, but
that Mr. Blaynhad declared he would make it eot
him 2001.

Tlie Chairrnan strongly reprobated the conduct
of Mr Erayn, in bringing his son into a Court of
Justice, at sb tender an' age, and making a dispute
between two children the subject of- a criminal
proecution. The defendant's father was subject
to answer the damage arising front the rniscdnduct
of his-son ; and'had he refused to do so, he might
have had his remedy in a civil action.
The Jury acquitted the defendant ; and Mr.
Lemon accordingly paid the surgeon's bill imme-
diateiy.

Hannqh Munroe, a young lady of respectable ap-
karanee, was put -to the lAr, on in indictment
ellarging her . being' a common scold, and
disturber of tbie public peace-. She pleaded Not
Guilty.
Mr. GURNEY, Counsel for the prcnecution, ob-
served that the present peaceable and quiet
appearance of 'the defendant was such as to
induce the prosecutor to hope she would pot again
give .cause of complaint he was thtiefore inr
structed ;lot to call any witnesses. The defend 7
ant Was of course acquitted.

There was ,a large show of Scotch and Irish

of them were toll of flesh, and in excellent 'condi-
tion. lt is computed, that there were 2800 runts,
