persons present who wear other people's clothes. Ido
not care if wh.t I say is criminal. I, for my own part,
shall do all my power next week to put a stop to trade,
and urge the Irish in London to rebellion." This last
expression was received with loud applause.
The prisoner asked whether the constable had taken
notes of his speech?
Brothers said not at the time ; he quoted entirely
from memory. He was satisfied what he stated was
correct.

The prisoner said lie denied the accuracy of the con-
stable's evidence. He had not uttered the language im-
puted to him.

- John Gray, sergeant 15 C division, apprehended the
prisoner at ten o'clock that morning at his residence, 1,
Archer-street, Camden-town. He told him for what he
apprehended him, to which he replied, " Oh, I expected
it; I heard of it last night." He then put his hand in his
pocket, and handed to a female a paper, produced, which
witness took from her. Witness soon after searched his
lodging, but found nothing important beyond a few
Chartist resolutions.

Mr. JARDINE perused the paper the prisoner had
handed to the female, but he was of opinion it had no-
thing to do with the present charge.
In answer to the charge, the prisoner said the whole
of the evidence, with very little exception, was entirely
a fabrication. He was only surprised that any magis-
trate could entertai❑ a charge so vaguely stated, and by
a person who had taken no notes of the proceedings. As
ho supposed, however, the case would go elsewhere, he
should not call witnesses, or make any defence.
Mr. JARDINE ordered him to enter into his own re-
cognizince in the sum of 1001., and to find two sureties
in 501. each, to answer the charge at the Central Crimi-
nal Court.

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.
BEGGING PETITION IMPOSTORS.—Chalks Smith and
W. Johnson, both of whom have a number of other
names, were re-examined before Mr. Bingham, the
former on a charge of having attempted to obtain money
from Sir Henry Meux under false pretences,. and the
latter for having defrauded the same Baronet of 101. by
means of a fraudulent begging petition.
Mr. BINGHAM said he did not entertain the least
doubt that the evidence taken established a clear ease of
fraud against the prisoner Johnson, and he should,
theiefore, send him to prison for three months. With
regard to the other prisoner, Smith, proof of a former
conviction had been given against him, and he ahould
send him to prison for the same period also.

ETON COLLEGE SWIMMING SCHOOL GAMES
An excellent law has for some time past been enforced
at Eton College, which requires that every boy shall pass
the " Swimming Test," before he is allowed to enter ti
boat on the Thames. He is required to jump from the
bank into deep water, to swim well fifty yards, and then
to swim back to the place from whence he started. To
encourage the practice of diving, as the most ready way
of saving life in case of sudden accidents upon the water,
as well as to give confidence to swimmers, prizes have
recently been instituted, under the superintendence of sw
committee, consisting of the Rev. E. Coleridge, Rev. W.
G. Cookesley, Rev. W. A. Carter, W. Evans, Esq., and
the Rev. B. Duperis. The swimming school Same;
took place at Athens, on the Thames, about a mile above
Windsor-bridge, in the presence of the committee,
nearly the whole of the masters, and a large as-
semblage of spectators. There were nearly 100 WM-
petiters for the various prizes, which were thus
awarded .—Alfred Coleridge, as the best swimmer (dis.
Lance 300 yards) gained the silver medal, given by the
Windsor and Eton Royal Humane Society. The second
best swimmer was Graham, to whom was awarded a
silver seal, with the motto, "Floreat Etona." The prize
for diving (also a silver medal, given by the same so-
ciety) wus awarded to Fletcher, who, in three dives,
brought up from the bottom of the river, in deep water,
19 eggs. Thackeray obtained the good seal, as the best
heady; the second in point of merit being Sutton, to
whom was presented a valuable agate seal. Several
prizes were also given by the masters to those boys who
particularly distinguished themselves. The aquatic pro-
fessorships for this year have been conferred as follow:
Tachynectic (swift swimmer), Alfred Coleridge; Kolym-
betic (diver), Fletcher; and Cephalic (header), 'Macke-
ray. During the games a boy named Goodlake was
seized with the cramp, and immediately sunk. Mr.
Evans, one of the committee (the drawing-master at the
College), dived after the boy, without divesting himself
of his clothes, and, fortunately, succeeded in rescuing
him. Since the establishment of the swimming school,
which was founded by the Bishop of New Zealand, in
1836, 1,644 boys have passed the swimming test; 104
have passed during the present summer.

CRICKET.
HARROW V. WINCHESTER.

The final score exhibited for the ilarrovians 79 and
76, total 155 ; while the VVinchestonians mustered but
36 and 101, and thus left "the boys on the hill" victors
by 18 runs.

- The ground was then cleared for Harrow Y. Eton,
which at the close of play left Harrow with 45 scores for
bix wickets down.

At the close of the play on Saturday evening it was
not finished, but the score up to that period, as will be
seen, presents a most tanurable appearance in favour of
Harrow, who headed the Etutnana by 32 on the first
innings, whilst with seven wickets down they bad in-
creased that advantage by 42, or "74 on." Harrow-
-Ist innings, 100; second innings, 42. Eton-Ist innings,
68. This match will be followed by that between Eton
and Winchester.
