ation.

POLICE INTBLErG EN CE-1

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

THE NEW ACT ON REFRESHMENT HOUSES.—George
Lines, a servant, was charged with being drunk and assault-
ing Mr. Benjamin Alexander, eating and refreshment-house
keeper, 26, Tichborne street, Haymarket.

Mr. Alexander said the prisoner and two others, one of
whom was a soldier, came into his house and wanted re-
freshment, but seeing they were drunk he refused to serve
them, and two cf them left, but the prisoner refused to do
so ; and on his putting his hand on his shoulder to lead him
out he struck a violent blow at his (Mr. Alexander's) face,
but which he warded off on his hand, which was bruised in
consequence.

Brown, 304 A, having proved taking the prisoner into
custody, and seeing Mr. Alexander's hand bruised,
Mr. Beadon said people were not to go into houses and
kick up a row. It was clear he was drunk and assaulted
the complainant. This was one of the first cases that had
come before bim under the new act respecting refreshment
houses, and he would tell him by that act, if a person was
drunk and was ordered to leave by the landlord, and refused
to do so, he was liable to a penalty of 40s. He should,
however, fine him 20s. or a month. : •

The clause of the Act is as follows :—" Any person who
shall be drunk, riotous, quarrelsome, or disorderly, in any
shop, house, or place, licensed fot the solo of beer, wine, or
spirituous liquors by retail to be consumed on the premises,
or for refreshment, resort, and entertainment, under the
provisions of this act, and shall refuse or neglect to quit
such premises, shop, or house, or place upon being requested
so to do by the manager, or occupier, or agent, or servant,
or by any constable, shall, on conviction thereof, be liable
to a penalty not exceeding 405."

THAMES.
JUVENILE DELINQUENCT.—A little Irish boy, named
Thomas Bryant, whose rough head of hair could juit be
seen peeping above the felon's dock in which he was placed,
was brought before Mr. Yardley, charged with stealing two
caps from the shop of Mr. William Williams, hatter, of
High-street, Poplar.
Mr. Yardley asked the prosecutor if he placed his goods
inside or outside his shop.
Mr. Williams—Outside, always outside, sir.
Mr. Yardley—Then you ought not to do anything of the
kind. Keep your goods inside your shop beyond the reach
of temptation in future.
Mr. Williams—l beg pardon, sir, I meant inside my
shop. I never put my goods outside my shop.
Mr. Yardley—l am very glad to hear it. Go on, sir.
Mr. Williams—This boy came into my shop yesterday
afternoon and stole two caps. He ran away with them
and I pursued him, and he deliberately threw the caps into
a shoemaker's shop. After he was taken he confessed ho
stole a cap last week.
Mr. Yardley asked the boy where he lived, and if his
parents were in attendance. After the question had been
repeated several times he stammered out, NQ. 7, Sophia-
street, Poplar.
Mr. Yardley—ls your father or your mother present ?
The boy made no answer.
" You little goose," exclaimed a woman at the back of
the court, " sure I'm your mother."
Mr. Yardley—Come this way.
The woman, who was decently attired,, and whose man-
ner indicated respectability and intelligence, said she was
very poor, and had never heard of her boy doing wrong
before. He never brought home anything, and she wished
to discourage his bad habits.
Mr. Yardley—ls your name Bryant ?
Witness—No, sir; my name is Kelly.
Mr. Yardley—The boy gives the name of Bryant.
The mother—That was his father's name. Bryant was
my first husband, and Kelly is my second.
Mr. Yardley-1V ell, I should save this boy if possible.
Tell your husband to attend here en Monday next. The
boy is remanded until that day.

SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.

BETTING AT MANCHESTER-YESTERDAY.

The affair at Croydon created very little interest here.
There were very few disposed to open their books, and
almost as few disposed to back anything. There was cer-
tainly a few bets made on the Metropolitan Steeplechase, and
Heads or Tails was made favourite for the Croydon Stakes.
The little done on the Derby hardly indicates any change.

MIS. DAY'S MARE ETS.

CORN EXCHANGE.

A very limited supply of English wheat was on offer in
to•day's market, nevertheless the demand for all kinds
ruled heavy at Monday's currency. The general quality of
the samples was inferior.

Upwards of 30,000 qrs. of foreign wheat having come
fresh to hand, sales were very difficult, and they could not
be effected except at reduced quotations. •
Floating cargoes of grain were a dull inquiry.
Fine barley was held at full prices, but other descriptions
were rather easier, with a dull market.
There was little doing in malt at late quotations.
The oat trade was somewhat firmer than on Monday. In
prices, however, no change took place.
Beans and peas ruled about stationary; but American
flour, owing to the arrival of 22,550 barrels, was rather
cheaper.

barely eupported.

WHITECHAPEL.

The supplies of meat are moderately good, and the de-
mand ruled steady, as follows :

to 4s 6d ; pork, 3s 8d to 55 Od per Blbs. by the carcase.

ONE FARTHING DAMAGES.—In the Court of
Queen's Bench, yesterday, an action—Towle v, Boodle—
for slander and assault was tried. The plaintiff and defen-
dant were both attorneys. The jury gave a verdict for the
plaintiff—damages (which were laid at £500), one farthing.
THE CONDEMNED CULPRIT ANNE PADFIELD.—
Several paragraphs having appeared in reference to the
case of Anne Padfield, tho convict under sentence of death
in the gaol of Newgato for the murder of her child, in which
it appears to be assumed that she now admits her guilt, we
are requested to state that, since her conviction, the convict
has made a statement to the ordinary, solemnly declaring.
that she had nothing to do with the murder, and incrimi-
nating other persons. This statement has been submitted
by the sheriffs to the Secretary of State, and is now under
investigation.

VI'IT OF - THE EMPRESS OF THE
FRENCH To. 7HE QUEEN.

The Empress Eugenie arrived at Windsor yesterday
afternoon, in one of the state carriages of the Great Wes-
tern Railway, for the purpose of paying a visit to ber
Majesty and the Prince Consort. In accordance with the
wisheo expressed by the EmpreSs that her visit should be
considered strictly of a' private chaiacter, the- guard of
honour wad dispensed with, and even the time that her
Majesty might be expected to arrive was announced tmthe
officials scarcely an hour previous to her arrival, conse-
quently a gnat crowd at the. station. was avoided.,

The Prince Consort, accompanied by Lord Charles Fitz-
roy and Major Du Plat, came to the station at one o'clock,
and awaited in'the royal saleori her Majesty's arrival; pre
oisely at ten minutes past one o'clock the Empress-arrived,
when the Prince Consort proceeded across the platform
and cordially sbook hands with her Majesty as she left the
carriage. Her Majesty took the Prince's arm, and pass-
ing through the saloon entered one of the royal pony car-
riages, and proceeded with the Prince to the Castle ; two
other carriages followed with the ladies and gentlemen of
her suite. On the platform to receive the Einpress were
Mr. Henry Driver (mayor), Lady Grey, Lady Bruce, Col.
DalrymplN,of the Scots Fusilier Guards in garrison here;
Rev, the Vicar of Windsor, Mr. Henry Stevens, Captain
Layard, Mr. Matthews, and the following magistrates of
the borough;—Messrs. Blunt, Harris, Holderness, and
Hanson, and Mr. Henry Darvill, town clerk.

The EMpress as she left the station, and along the whole
line of route to the Castle, was loudly cheered, and during
her stay the bells of St. John's Church sent forth merry
peals. _ _ _

The Empress, after luncheon, took leave of the Queen,
and at ten minutes past three o'clock arrived at the station,
ai passed through the Queen's waiting-room to the State
carriage, leaning on the arm of the Prince Consort.
Her Majesty appeared in good health, but not so in spirits,
and with an amiable though somewhat pensive smile, she
gracefully bowed to the company as the train slowly pro-
ceeded from the station.

The royal journeys Were performed in 30 minutes each
way by the company's powerful engine, the Iron Duke.
