THAMES.

Mrs. Sarah Baker was charged on a peace warrant
with using threatening language towards Mr. Jacob
Baker, her brother-in-law.

Mr. Pelham appeared for the complainant, who carries
on business as a bake:, in High-street, Bromley. The
defendant was the wife of his brother, a painter and
glazier, in High-street, Stratford. On Sunday, the 14th
of December, the defendant knocked at Mr. Baker's
door, and asked his wife where Jacob Baker was. She
answered that he was at home, and the defendant told
her she had brought him his two children, and he must
support them ; at the same time forcing them into the
pas,age. Mr. Baker on hearing this came out of his
room, and said the children were none of his, but his
brother's. The defendant said the complainant was the
father of them, and demanded a weekly allowance for
their support, and added that she would compel him to
maintain his offspring. The complainant said if she had
any grounds for charging him with being the father of
her children, to appeal to the law, and told her to go
about her business, for the children were none of his.
The defendant said, before she replied to the charge
she would request her husband, who was seated at the
solicitors' table near her, to withdraw, as what she had
to say was not fit for him to hear.
The husband said he would not leave the Court—he
would hear all.

The defendant then repeated that Jacob Baker, and
not her husband, was the father of the children.
The complainant was then examined at great length
by his solicitor, and he said he believed the accusation
was made to extort money from him. He had lodged
with his brother and sister-in• law, but he never paid her
any particular attentions, nor was he ever guilty of any
impropriety with her. His sister-in-law had annoyed
him before, and he caused her to be taken before the Il-
ford Bench, and the Magistrates had warned her not to
annoy him again.
Ultimately, Mr. BALLANTINE expressed his belief
that the woman was labouring under a delusion, or else
her object was to extort money from her brother-in-law.
She might settle other matters with her husband, but he
would not have the peace broken, and would require bail
for her future good behaviour.
The defendant, after being locked up four hours, put
in bail, her own husband, who is a housekeeper, being
accepted as one of the sureties.
George Pullen and William Martin, who surrendered
upon bail, and John Cruse, who appeared for the first
time, and gave himself up, were charged with assaulting
and robbing John S. Harris, on the 10th of Nov. last.
After a tedious discussion,
Mr. Pelham said he had a complete answer to the case,
which he knew must go to the sessions, and
Mr. BALLANTINE, who would not entertain the charge
of robbery, held all the defendants to bail, to answer at
the next se,sions a charge of assaulting, beating, and
wounding Harris.

by one of the most delightful offices of friendship and affection ;
the interchange of gifts as remembrances of the donors, and
tokens of their esteem for the receivers. The most appro-

merely useful one can afford no evidence of taste, while a pre_
sent possessing no claims to utility, shows a want of judgment.

suggested than Rowland's Toilet Articles, the Macassar Oil,
