MAR YLEB ONE.

FURIOUS Dnivista. John Turner, livery stable
keeper, Portland-town, and John Mortloch, a gentleman'.
servant out of place, were yesterday placed at the bar
before Mr. HosKnis, charged with furiously driving.
John Morgan, driver of the hackney-coach N. 176
(whose face and head exhibited a dreadful appearance,
being cut and bruised in a most shocking manner), stated
that on the previous evening, while feeding his horses,
which stood first on the rank in Great Portland-street, a
horse and cab, driven by the prisoner, Turner, who was
accompanied by Mortlock, came galloping down thestreet,
and before witness could get out of the way he was
knocked down, and the off-wheel passed over the crown of
his hat. He lay insensible for some time, and on recover-
ing himself, ascertained that the pole of his coach was
broken, and one of his horses severely injured in the legs.
He was obliged to be taken to Middlesex Hospital, where
his wounds were dressed. The prisoners, who appeared
to be drunk, did not attempt to pull their horse up.
Mr. HOSKINS ordered the prisoners, who said they had
lost all command over the horse, by the breaking of the
reins; to pay a fine of 40s. each to the King, to give the
complainant 245. for the damage done to the coach, as
well as 40s. for the injuries he himself had sustained.
The prisoners were then removed to the lock up.
QUEEN- S Q U.ARE.

William Cormick, a private soldier belonging to the
second battalion of the Coldstream Guards, was brought
up in custody before Mr. GREGOAIE, charged with wil-
fully breaking thirty-six dozen of phial bottler, the pro-
perty of Elias Cohen, a bottle tnercbant, in St. Ann's-
lane, Westminster.

The MAGISTRATE ordered him to pay the damage,
which amounted to 225.

The soldier peremptorily refused to pay the money,
and he was ordered to be sent for seve❑ days to the House
of Correction, and be sent to work at the treadmill.

HATT ON- GARDEN.

Yesterday, Emanuel Louyier, an Italian boy, ab ut 12
years of age, was brought before Mr. LAING, in the cus-
tody of Goodyear, of the E division, No. 39. The pri-
soner exhibited the most wretched appearance, and seemed
to be half starved.

Goodyear, on Wednesday night, at about seven o'clock,
was passing through Gordon-square, when his attention
was arrested by the most piteous screams as if some per-
son was in great agony. On proceeding towards the spot
he found the prisoner lying upon his organ, with his
hands pressing upon his stomach; he appeared to be in
great pain and was screaming violently. Several humane
persons spoke to him in English as to what ailed him, but
all that could be extracted from him was, "Me no under-
stand ;de lielleeake—me no food." At length a lady
with her servant came up and addressed him in Italian,
when he replied that he had no home and no master, and
he affected to be so exhausted and unable to speak that
the lady relieved him, on which Goodyear went up to him
and asked him what was the matter with him. He was
in his undress, and on pulling out his staff the prisoner
got up, took to his heels, and ran off as fast as possible,
leaving his organ behind him. He immediately pursued
him and took him into custody, when he begged for mercy
in plain English.
The prisoner, on being questioned, stood gazing at the
Magistrate, and nothing could be extorted from him but
"Me no understand."

Goodyear—He understands English as well as I do,
your Worship, but he always pretends this ignorance when
he is brought here.

Mr. Peterini, an Italiin interpreter, attended and ques •
tinned the prisoner, who would give no satisfactory ac-
count of himself.

Mr. LAING said it was a great nuisance. The town
was inundated by these Italian boys, who were every-
where to be wet with in a state of *ietcheduess, and an-
noying passengers.

. _
Mr. Peterini said it was a pity that Government did
not do something to prevent the nuisance. They were
continually bringing such boys from their native country,
and something ought to be done to send them back again.
Mr. LAING committed the prisoner to the House of
Correction for fourtee❑ Jays, and ordered his organ to be
detained until his master, or some one of his friends, called
for it.

Goodyear here stated that the west end of the town, and
especially the squares, were infested by Italian boys, who
carried the most frightful-looking animals, and several la-
dies had, within the last few days, been seriously alarmed
by them, and he had ascertained that two Italian masters
had gone over to Italy within the last week to bring over
several batches of them.

Mr. Peterini said that a German lady of fortune, who
keeps her carriage and resided in the neighbourhood of
Portman.aquare, had lately taken a fancy to Italian boys,
whom she took under her protection, and clothed and fed
them in a comfortable manner. Several of them had been
within a short period received into her house, and she was
willing to receive others, and he had no doubt but the
prisoner might meet with an asylum if he was discharged.
He did not mention the lady's name.
The prisoner was ultimately taken to the House of Cor-
rection.
