THAMES POLICE.

Yesterday two women of the town were brought
before Mr. BALLANTINE, charged by a policeman
of the K division with being drunk and disorderly,
and creating a disturbance in Shadwell.
The appearance of one of the prisoners excited
the notice of everybody present. Her face was
dreadfully biuised, and her eyes were blackened and
swollen. The injuries appeared to be very recent.
The policeman's evidence was, that the prisoners
were creating a disturbance at a very late hour, and
that, on commanding them to move on, they used
the most horrible language, and their conduct was
so violent that he was compelled to take them into
custody.
Mr. BALLANTINE asked the prisoner whose face
was bruised how she met with the injuries ?
The woman replied, that the policeman threw her
on her face with great force and stunned her, and
that he used her with very great violence.
Mr. BALLANTINE—IS that so ?

The policeman hesitated, and, on the question
being repeated, admitted that he had pushed the
woman on her face.

Mr. BALLANTINE-Why did you not mention
that before ? You were sworn to speak the whole
truth. You have thrown the woman down to some
purpose, for her face is in a 0-Locking state.
The policeman here muttered something in a low
tone about " he could not help it."
Mr. BALLANTINE directed the women to be taken
out, and then addressing Mr. Young, the inspector
of the K division, said, " I shall not commit those
women at all, for I think there has been a great deal
of roughness on the part of the policeman. The
woman ought not to have been pushed down."
The Inspector—Yes ; I think he has used great
violence.
Two young men of respectable appearance, named
Henry Slilley and John King, were next placed at,

R bar, charged with obstructing the same police-
an in the execution of his duty.

my with the two girls, and they obstructed Ine,
