Prince and Princess Doria Pamphilli are to leave
Rome this month for this country, where they intend staying
some weeks. We understand the Prince and Princess Borg-
hese also purpose visiting this country in the course of next
month.

Thursday, at the Kensington Petty Sessions,
John Freeman, the keeper of the Prince of Wales beer-shop,
King's-road, Chelsea, appeared before the Bench to an-
swer a summons, at the instance of Inspector Shepherd, V
division, for refusing admission to the police when demanded
by them on the morning of the 21st. It appeared from the
evidence of a police-sergeant and two constables, that about
three o'clock on the morning in question they heard a noise as
of a dispute in the defendant's house, on which they knocked
at the door for admittance, and after waiting for upwards of live
minutes, a female from a window inquired who was there. She
was informed " the police," when, after a further delay of more
than five minutes, the door was opened by the defendant's
son, and on entering the premises they found four persons
coming down stairs, and in a room up stairs ten other persons.
On the table were three pewter pots belonging to the defendant.
The defendant in answer to the charge denied that admittance
had been refused. The fact was, his premises consisted of a
double house, part of which he let to a person of the name of
Shadrach Danev, who had a christening party in his apart-
ments. The police said there was a comniunication between the
two houses mostadmirably adapted for eluding the vigilance of
the police, as it led to a large room in the rear, from which no
noise could be heard in front. The Bench, on referring to the
New Police Act (2 and 3 Victoria, cap. 47), finding that by
the 47th section every licensed dealer in wine, spirits, beer,
or other excisable liquors, having a communication between his
house and any other building, is liable to a fine of 101. for
every day such communication is kept open, asked the defen-
dant if he was aware lie had committed a more serious offence
than refusing the police admittance. The defendant declared
his ignorance that such a clause was in existence, and asked if
should brick the communication up. The-Bench told him to
do so immediately, and, dismissing the summons for want of
clear roof of the refusal, granted the Inspector a summons
against the defendant fur having Ihe communication, which
will come on for hearing on a future day.
