sworn, when 'lie- reiterated . his defenee, and produced
two witnesses to confirm his evideacc.

William Drake, a shoemaker, a Chartist, appeared
before Mr. Broughton to a summons, charged by John
Golding, a quandotn Chartist, with having unlawfully
threatened him so as to put him in fear of his life. Mr.
Hunt, a solicitor, attended for the defendant.
The complainant, who stated that he was a preacher,
and lived at No. 7, New Clifton-place, said that last
Sunday evening he was at the Hall of Science, City-
road, t, hear a lecture. He entered the place about
seven o'clock, and was on the platform. About twenty
minutes past eight o'clock he was pointed out by the
defendant, who was in the body of the meeting, and
who exclaimed that he was a government spy, and a
policeman in a disguise. He soon after got on the
platform, and made use of the same expressions, and
wlded that he had betrayed the Chartists, and sold
poor Boggis. The effect was to cause a momentary
disturbance, which he (complainant) succeeded in quiet-
ing by assuring him that the imputation was false.
But when ho was on the point of leaving, a man, who
appeared nearly drunk, came up to him, and said tha•
he should like to run a hole through him. Two
or three others also called him a scoundrel.

In answer to Mr. Broughton, tbe'comphinant said
that he was in fear of his life in consequence of the
charge, as there were many ignorant men, who were
led by the more designing Chartists, who talked of
stabbing policemen, and setting fire to houses, who
would not mind doing him some personal injury.
Mr. BROUGHTON inquired what sort of religion was
professed in the lectures delivered at the Hall of Sci-
nce?

The complainant replied, that they were certain tenets
of the Rev. Richard Cultic, and he explained then, to
the Magistrate, observing, that Mrs. Carlile delivered
the lecture that night in the absence of her husband,
who had been attacked with paralysis.
Mr. BnounffroN—When was he seized with a
paralysis ? Compl iinant—Last Sundzy fortnight, at the
Hal! of Science.

The complainant, being questioned by the defendant's
solicitor, said that he was formerly one of the Chartist
!e ',tiers; and he left them sortie months ago, when many
were taken into custody. To his knowledge he never
gave advice to the Chartists to take arms to defend
thcias:'lves. But he knew that the defeadant die. He
denied cver having given any information to ele Go-
veramzint against Boggle, or any Chartis'.
John Brett, cal:inz2t-maker, Catherine-street, City-
road, confirmed the evidence of the complainant ; and
said that when the min went up to him, ,he remarked
that, as he was an enemy to the C lartistg, he should
like—when the complainant said ti hat would you. like?
—the man remarked, I should like to make a hole
through you." .

Another witness having confirmed the evidence,
Mr. Hunt said that the charge was scarcely worthy
of a reply, since he was able to state that the difference
between the emnpliinant and defendant arwe from the
former having seceded from the Ciartists, and, it was
beliec,ed had given information to G.;vernment in refer-
ence the proceedings of the Chartists.
Mr. BROUGHTON remarked that it was no matter
what might be the rcligioui opinions of any one, they
equally should have the protection of the law. The
charge was fully proved, and lie should bold the de-
fendant to bail to answer the charge at the sessions, if
the complainant thought proper to take it there.
The defendant was held to bail, himself in 401., and
two sureties in 201. each. Mlny of the leading Char-
tists were present, and a Chertiit shorthand writer took
notes of the proceedings.
