ustnesa in Cannon-street. The defendant was brought
110 to the court on Saturday, but was remanded and re-
:,ased from custody on bail, in consequence of the non-
attendance of the complainant.
Mr. Buchanan, a solicitor, attended on the part of the
"Le Pendant
The complainant, having been sworn, deposed that the
43, sault was, committed in a court close to his resi-
dence between eleven and twelve o'clock on Friday
tight last. On remonstrating with the defendant, ho
1141 off, but ho was subsequently apprehended by a
Policeman, to whom he had mentioned the circumstance.
Complainant had been drinking two glasses of brandy
Iltid water, and some stout, but he was perfectly sober,
and knew what he was about. To the best of his belief
the defendant was the individual who assaulted him.
The complainant showed some hesitation, in the first
%tancp, on this point; but he subsequently said he
tould swear the defendant was the man.

The Lotto MAYOR—Why were you not here on Sa-
turday to press the charge? Complainant—Business
Prevented me attending, 'sod I told the police that I
could not appear at the court until Monday or Tuesday.
The LORD MANOR—Then you thought you were jus-
tified in giving, to every appearance, a respectable per-
-804 in custody, and allowing him to be locked up in the
Btation-house, on a serious charge of this nature, and
11°t attending to proceed with the case, as you were
bound to do, both for you own sake and the interests of

'l.4r. Buchanan said the charge was a most un.
th"aded and improper one, and be should prove that

that the defendant had assaulted him. The defendant
~,"4a a highly respectable person, known to many gentle-
men Present in the eourt, and his moral conduct was
Tve all suspicion.

use,
Out.
Nl'4(3 LORD MAYOR said he felt bound to dismiss the
