LAMBETH- STREET.

Yesterday Mrs. Margaret Fry, a smartly dressed and
good-looking young female, was brought before Mr. HARD-
WICK and a county magistrate, on a warrant charging her
with having assaulted Louisa Harris.
The complainant, who appeared advanced in pregnancy,
and who is married to the husband of the defendant, said
that on Monday evening, while walking arm-in-arm with her
husband— _

Defendant (contemptuously)—Husband, indeed ! I never
saw such a husband.—(Laughter.)
Complainant—While I was walking with my husband,
this female came behind me unawares and struck and
knocked me down.

The defendant in reply to the charge said that 10 weeks
ago last Sunday the complainant, with a full knowledge that
he was a married man, was united to her (defendant's)
husband, at St. Andrew's Church, Holborn. Shortly after-
wards she had her husband taken up on a charge of bigamy,
and brought to this office, but owing to the absence of the
second wite, and his promising to allow her a weekly sum
for her support, he was dischargod. On Monday evening
she met her husband and the complainant walking arm-in-
arm together, and her passion overcoming her she struck
complainant.
MAGISTRATE.—Are you the person whose husband slept
with you all night, and got up next morning and went to
church with another young woman ?—Defendant.—Yes,
