ME SUSPICIOUS AFFAIR IN WYLD-

STREET.

To-day the man. Pullin, his wife and his neice,
were placed before Mr. Flower, at Bow-street, on
remand, the latter charged with concealing the
birth of her child ; and the others with aiding and
abetting her to do so.
The only a Iditional evidence was that Dr. Ben-
net said he did not think it all possible the
female prisoner could have placed the body of the
child beneath the stone in the kitchen, as it weighel
over 191b5., and that she must, at that time, have
been in an extremely.delicate state.
The male prisoner, in his defence, denied all that
had been attributed to him, but Mr. Flower fully
committed all three prisoners for tria', intimating
that he would accept bail for Mrs. Pullin.

On the male prisoner Pullin being removed
from the cell to the police van he was recc,gniscd
by the large crowd that bad collected in front of
the police court, and also received with expressions
and hisses of the loudest, description.

POLICE IIVTELLIGENCE.-7Ms Day.

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

A 'BRUTAL FELLOW FL,OPERLY FUNIEUED.—Thornas
Shortis, a painter, charged with violently assaulting a
young woman, named Barnett, was brought before Mr.
Knox for final examination.

Mr. William Moore, of the Associate Institution for Ire.
proving and Enforcing tho Laws for the Protection o.
Women, attended to watch the case.

The injured woman, who has been in the infirmary of
St. James's Workhouse since the last examination, was in
attendance, but still very unwell.
It may be rememb;ired that the complainant and tha
prisoner lived together, but quarrelled and parted. Sho
had ebtained a summons against the prisoner for the sup-
poll of their child, and went to his mother's to see him,
and while speaking to a young woman at the door the pri-
soner came up and abused her. A quarrel then took place
between their, in consequence of the prisoner refusing to
do anything towards the support of the child, and in the
course of it the prisoner struck the complainant several
times on the breast, side, and arm with a part of a French
bedstead, severely injuring her.
Mr. Knox said—l will deal with this case at once, and
not send it to the sessions, and a more brutal I have never
heard. You have a child by her, and she is walking about
th,l streets in a state of Cestitution. She calls at your
mother's house to see you, and she might have been abu-
sive to you, but what wonder if she had on your refusing
to assist her and insulting her. Upon the evidence of the
-complainant, and that of a man in the house, you were the
first as ailant, and you assaulted her in a cruel manner. A
more painful scene than that last week I never saw. She
was here fainting, and only kept up by stimulants. She
is the mother of your child, and this is the way in which
You treat her. 1 never heard a worse case in a court of
justice, and in dealing with you summarily I shall commit
you for six months with hard labour.
