LAMBEH.
SAD REVERSEL—Amongst the applicants for assist-
ance to Mr. Norton was the once celebrated Miss
Ducrow, who some years ago had charmed the hearts of
half the play-going young men in the metropolis by her
extraordinary feats in horsemanship at the theatre of
her brother, the late Andrew Ducrow.
From the statement of the poor creature it appeared
that thirteen years ago she married Mr. Broadfoot, theta her brother's prompter, who treated her with kindness
until the death of her brother; but since that time bia
conduct towards her had been quite the reverse, and he
ultimately left her to live with another woman. Owing
to his desertion, and her being unable to obtain anything
to do in her profession, she was reduced to such an extre—
mity as to be obliged to go to Lambeth workhouse and be—
come an inmate there for some time. She left the work—
house in the hope that her mother would allow her to live
in her apartments, or give her shelter, but this she refused
to do. She then applied to Mr. Cope, one of the reliev—
ing efficers of Lambeth parish, for relief, but he refused.
to give her any, and she was at that moment in the-
greatest state of destitution.
In reply to the questions of the MAGISTRATE, the ap-
plicant said her brother had died possessed of consider—
able property, which he left to his wife, formerly Miss
Woolford, and who since his decease again got married
to Mr. Mayhew Andrews. He had, however, settled a•
weekly stipend on his mother of 305., and the sum was
paid to her every Monday morning. The last time the
applicant heard of her husband he was stage manager
at a theatre in Glasgow, where he no doubt had
i.
good salary.
Mr. NORTON directed that 10s. be at once given to.
the poor woman for her immediate relief, and that a.
communication should be made to the husband, with the
view of compelling him to provide for her maintenance.

Middlesex., Friday, November 17, Ve•4B.

Sergeant Gearing, 16 N, said that numerous robberies
ii• CotCot Islington, and he had no doubt,
if the prisoner was remanded to a future day, he should
be enabled to bring forward other charges against him.
Mr. lin:maul' remanded him accordingly.
Charles Turner was charged with stealing several
quart and pint pewter pots, the property of licensed
victuallers of Islington and Stoke Newington.
Sergeant Gearing, 16 N, stopped the prisoner in Ball's-
pond-road, Islington, with a bundle, when suspecting
bim, he questioned him. He said the bundle contained
turnery, but on examining it he found four pint and six
quart pewter pots, belonging to Mr. Field, of Stoke New-
ington, and other licenseed victuallers of Islington, &c.,
when he took him to the station-house.
Mr. Field and others identified the property.
The prisoner said distress urged him to the robbery.
He was fully committed for trial.

Yesterday William YarmouthSOUTHWARK was brought before Mr.
Cottingham, charged with excessive cruelty to Sarah
Manning, and striking her with a red hot poker.
The complainant, a girl of 12 years of age, stated that
she lived with her aunt, who was the prisoner's mother
—that he was in the habit of using her very cruelly on
any occasion on which he was displeased with her—that
a few days ago he beat her severely with a cane, the
marks of which were visible on her shoulders and arms.
On the preceding night, owing to harhaving been longer
in performing an errand than he thought she should bet
he pulled the poker out of the fire and struck her with it
on the bare neck. She now exhibited the wound in.
flicted by the instrument, which was sore and inflamed.
The prisoner said the girl was very bad tempered, anti
that he had the permission of her mother to chastise
her when she did wrong—that she was in the habit of
loitering and playing when sent on errands, and that in
order to break her of it he admitted that he had cor-
rected her.
Mr. COTTINGHAM—Bat a red hot poker is not the
proper instrument to correct a little girl; it shows that
you must be a man of a most vicious disposition.
Prisoner—l did not think the poker was hot at the
time, or I should not have done it.
Mr. COTTINGHAM advised the mother of the girl to
take her away from the presence of a man, and that man
a relative, who could act with such cruelty as to use a
red hot poker iu correcting her for a trivial fault. The
magistrate then inflicted a fine of 40s. on the prisoner,
and in default committed him for twenty-one days.
Patrick Shaughnessy, an Irish piper, was charged with
being intoxicated sad knocking at people's doors at an
unreasonable hour of the night.
A policeman said, that on the previous night he saw
the defendant lying on the pavement in High-street, and
his bagpipes a dozen yards away from him on the
ground; that he picked them both up, and the defendant,
when he got his pipes began to play away, and when he
finished he commenced knocking at all the doors round
about, soliciting money. As he refused to go away and
was drunk, he took him to the station-house.
When the defendant was placed at the bar he had his
bagpipes under his arms, and when asked by the magis-
trate what ho had to say in answer to the charge of in-
toxication, he replied, in a Munster brogue, " Why, then,
your wurtchip, this is the first time that I have been
drunk for the last eight years. I took the pledge, and
by my soul I never broke it before until last night I
met that thief Paddy Leary, and he tuk me into Ned
HoulL's, where they made me play and drink until my
bags were slit. And so, when they lost the music, we
all left the house; and, by my troth, when I got into the
street 1 did not know whether I was standing upon my
head or my heels; but I will take care and not break
the pledge again it your worship will let me off. I cam
have a character from Father Mullins. He knows that
I am a sober man, and the policeman on my bate
knows it too."
Mr. COTTINGHAM asked him what he meant by saying
his " bags were slit?"
'1 he defendant explained it by saying that his bag-
pipes, that he brought all the way fr,m Ballinafad,
were broken, and that it would cost at least ss. to re-
pair them.
The MAGISTRATE said that the defendant being locked
up all night, besides having bad his " bags slit,' as he
called them, was ample punishment, and advised him to
be more careful in future.
