LAW AND POLICE.

DISORDERLY CONDUCT.—CURIOUS CASE.—Daniel Dehee,
a salesmaa, residing at No. 12, Prescott Street, White-
chapel, was charged before Mr. Knox, at the Marlborough
Street Police-court, as follows. Joseph Pearn, a constable
of the C division, said that at an early hour that morning
he was called by the defendant, who,was in the first cab
on the rank in the Haymarket, and told by him that the
cabman had refused to take him. He asked the cabman
why he did so, and he said he would not take the prisoner,
as he had been drinking, without he paid him beforehand,
and on hls telling him that the prisoner said they were a pair
of fools, and it was all a mistake about his being
drunk. He told the prisoner he had better get out of the
cab, and let him see whether he was drunk or not, and as
soon as he did so he fell down. On getting up again the
prisoner, who was unmistakeably drunk, collared him,
said he would take him to the station for knocking him
down, called " Police " at the top of his voice, and made
such a disturbance that he was obliged to lock him up.
The prisoner said he remembered very little about the
matter. Mr. Knox fined him 10s. or seven days.
A STUPID YOUTH AND THE " LOAFER."—Daniel Neale,
aged 29 years, was brought before Mr. Paget, at the
Thames Police Court, charged with stealing a silver watch
from the person of Charles Lee Mark, a ships apprentice.
The prisoner is a dangerous fellow, who it was stated had
been loafing about Poplar for some time, and robbing
sailors of their money and watches, and he was in
company of a man named Robert Downing, in a public-
house in Poplar, when they were joined by the prisoner,
who drank at the expense of his new acquaintance, and
left the public-house with them. They had not proceeded
far before Downing left them, and the prosecutor walked
with the priscner some distance until they reached a
secluded place near Bow Lane, when the prisoner seized
the lad by the arm and shoulders and robbed him of his
silver watch. The. prisoner was fully committed for
trial.

HOSPITAL AT CA RLSRUHE.—A German corrrespon-
dent writes :—"I started back with a shock as I first entered,
but then the peaceful calm in the large room where nearly
300 wounded men were lying seemed wonderful. The
room was large and quite fresh. Friendly deaconesses
went from bed to bed, and visitors were going from one
to the other with gifts of cigars and papers. By each
bed there was a table with a bunch of flowers—a present
from the Grand Duchess. We heard two neighbours
discussing the bravery of their own division,
and there was a poor Frenchmen, whose eyes
sparkled as we seemed to believe that there were only
40,000 French against 200,000 Germans at the battle of
Woerth. A few steps further, and there lay the Turcos,
who could hardly speak a word of French, and their
faces looked sad and gloomy. A landlady, who had
given a dinner to MacMahon three days before the battle
of Woerth, spoke very badly of him to the Germans.
She said that he had brought his mistress with him, who
drove boldly about in an elegant carriage, drawn by four
horses. The • Emperor was very much opposed to
his doing so, but all the Generals did just what they
liked,
