THE EMPRESS OF THE DISORDERLIES IN TROUBLE.
—Julia Mahoney, who has been convicted fifty
times for drunkenness, assaults, disorderly conduct,
petty felonies, and other assaults, and who in spite
of the Habitual Criminals Act is allowed to run
riot, was once more charged with being drunk, dis-
orderly, and making a disturbance at the Angel
public-house in Cable-street, near King David-lane,
Shadwe]l.

Mr. Alexander Stephenson, the landlord of the
Angel, was aroused at seven o'clock this morning
by the prisoner demanding liquors and making a
great disturbance. The landlord's brother-in-law
with some difficulty put her out of the house, and
she then raved, swore, and made a good deal of
noise. She declared she would break every -
window in the house, and was making preparations
to carry out her vile intentions. Fortunately a
constable, Henry Slingsby, No. 39 K, made his ap-
pearance and took her into custody, but not before
she had made a violent resistance, kicked, plunged,
and swore terribly. She threw herself on the ground,
and several policemen were called to remove her.
She kept up a continual clamour, and declared that
when she had an opportunity she would break every
window and pull down the beer machine in the
publican's house. She would be hung for him, and
with an imprecation involving the perdition of his
eyes and limbs, would never be easy until she tore
him to pieces.
Mr. Stephenson could assure the magistrate the
prisoner had not a grain of liquor in his house, and
was a continual plague there.
Slingsby said the prisoner was the most noisy
and most disagreeable woman in Shadwell, and was
called the Empress. _ .

Mr. Lushington sentenced her to seven days' im-
prisonment and hard labour.

SOMETHING WORTH KNOWING.—The public ought
to be nigh bewildered with the various descriptions of
breakfast beverages that have of late sprung into existence,
every one of them claiming to be of superior excellence.
No commodity has been more turned to account in this
particular than cocoa, because, no doubt, of its original
invaluable properties. But the number of cocoas iu exist-
ence are so great —some of them wo know to be highly re-
comm,ndable —that the general run of persons must feel
puzzled which to patronise and which to avoid. What
Messrs. Mercer, Unsworth, and Bevan, of Bilnond,ey,
Lave just succeeded in doing will relieve the public of this
Fe: ple ing difficulty. We understand that this firm have
devoted 11:1 ch time to the study of the p•culit:r propertied
(if l'ef'o3 io its origiu,d state, that they have submitted to
a careful apaysis all the best cocoas in use, and that,
guided by tie information they thus acquired, they have
hit upon a mixture comb:ning all the most valuable,
nom ishing, and invigorating Fr pertks claimed for the
bust encoas in use, and simplifying to a great extent what
before so perplexing. Sennoliae and Manzanil lo are the
"fn" which Messr.:. Meice, and C.o. have given to the
now e"coas they have brought into existence. They have
secured to themselves the exclusive, sale of the now cocoas,
and are, we understand, making extensive nrrangenTnts
for its consumption throughout the whole United King-
dom. From our own knowledge of drinks—and we have
been obliged, in our journalistic capacity, to put to the test
a good many front time to time—Messrs. Mercer and Co.'S
discovery cannot fail to secure much popular favour. In-
deed we should not be surFised to find Sentolme and Man-
zanillo, terms now so novel, becoming before very long, to
use a hackneyed expression, as familiar to the public as
household words. The good qualities of all cocoas seem
to be combined in Semoline and Xanzanillo.
