A LONG CHAPTER OF OFFENCES, INCLUDING
LIBEL.-Mr. John Piper, greengrocer, of 57, Ful-
ham-road, was summoned with having unlawfully
and maliciously published a certain defamatory
printed libel, of and concerning Henry Thompson,
by exhibiting the same to public view in his shop
window. He was further summoned for assaulting
the said Henry Thompson, and further with assault-
ing Eli Culverhouse; Mr. Thompson and a friend,
Mr. Heywood, were summoned for using threaten-
ing words to John Piper, under the Police Act.
The charges of threats were that on last Thurs-
day week in the evening Mr. Thompson and Hey-
wood came to Mr. Piper's shop, and Mr. Thompson
having taken a bill from the window, which, he con-
sidered, reflected on his character, began to abuse
Piper, and when outside the shop, assisted by Cul-
verhouse, said, "Come out and fight," called him a
vagabond and scoundrel. Culverhouse said,
" Come out and we will - well spot you," or
you shall be " spotted."

Mr. Arnold said he had nothing to do with
abusive words, but threats, and as these summonses
were taken out under the Police Act for threatening
language, and there was no evidence—taking the
prosecutor's own statement of the affair—to show
that threats had been used, the summons would,
therefore, be dismissed.

The charge of assault on Thompson arose out of
the libel alleged. Mr. Thompson had information
that handbills reflecting on his character were being
circulated in Brompton, and went to the shop of the
defendant Piper, where he saw one of the bills in
question, and a number of people reading it. It
was as follows :—" Notice.—lf this should meet the
eye of H. Thompson, who left the Black Horse,
Bond-place, and took with him a young person by
the name of M. Cox, and sundry articles, he is ear-
nestly requested to return to his distressed wife in
Camden-town, and all will be forgiven. Age,
forty-seven ; height, five feet two inches, car-
roty whiskers ; knocked knees ; downcast look ;
no reward will be offered." He took the bill out of
the window,when Piper came and struck him twice.
Culverhouse said he ought to be ashamed of him-
self, and then Piper struck him on the head and
ribs. In cross-examination there were some contra-
dictions, but of no great import.

Mr. Arnold dismissed the summons taken out for
assault by Thompson on the ground of the proNo-
cation he had given ; fined Piper 205., and 235.
costs for the assault on Culverhouse ; and adjourned
the libel summons for a week.

SPECIAL CONSTABLES.

The subjoined instructions for the organisation of
special constables, drawn up by order of the Secre-
tary of State for the Home Department, were yes-
terday issued :
The defensive measures to be taken under pre-
sent circumstances must as far as possible be of a
quasi permanent character—that is to say, must be
calculated to last for some weeks, and possibly
throughout the winter.
The best organisation will be that which cal-
culated to afford the most ready assistance to the
regular police in the event of an emergency.
With this view a police station in every parish will
be selected as the head-quarters of the force of
special constables of that parish. The head-quarters
station and every other police station in the parish
will be considered as a rallying point for the con-
stables of that parish. . _

The special constables of each parish will select to
command them a superintendent and such number
of deputy superintendents as may be required. The
superintendent and one deputy superintendent will
be attached to head-quarters, and one other deputy
superintendent must be attached to every other
police station.
Outlying rallying points may be selected at the
discretion of the superintendent, and an assistant
superintendent must be attached to every such out-
lying rallying point, to act under the direction of
one or other of the deputy superintendents in charge
of the police station to which such outlying rallying
point is subordinate. •
The whole force of the special constables in each
parish will be called a division, the portion under

EPOBTLNG INTELLIGENCE This Day.

VICTORIA CLUB BITTING—Tins DAT.
Business was particularly brisk to-day, both4fahe Great
torkshire Handicap and The Leger being freely srecn-
lated on. For the former event several candidates were
ao freely supported that it was-. difficult at the opening
to discover which had the call, but at the close Seville
remained unmistakeably first favourite. Bradamanto was
in good odour, while the Priest advanced to a prominent
position. Monitress, Thalia, and Knight Errant were
each in good request. All sorts of prices were
laid against Miss Harriette, who, together with
East Lancashire, was very " fishy." The Leger
betting underwent little change. An offer, however, to
accept two " monkeys " to ono agst Achievement failed to
find a layer; 3 to 1 woe laid on Hermit, one, two, three,
and 55 to 40 several time.s:on him against "the mare." Vau
ban was in good request at his price. The other quota-
tions, together with the Cesarewiteh transactions, aro
appended.

'WESTMINSTER

VIOLENT ASSAULTS ON THE POLlCE.—George
Cullen, a young man decently dressed, was charged
with being drunk, fighting, and assaulting two
police constables iu the execution of their duty.
John Rosling, 360 B, said at 3 o'clock on Satur-
day afternoon he was on duty in Earl-street, West-
minster, and saw the prisoner and another man
fighting. He separated them and got the other
man away, and prisoner came back again. When
requested to go away, he said he would not, using
threatening language to the constable, and struck
him in the face ; he took him into custody, when
prisoner threw himself down, frequently kicked him
about the legs, and bit him in the hand.

John Grant, 289 B, said he saw Rosling strug-
gling with the prisoner and went to his assistance.
Ha used very bad language, and then kicked wit-
ness in the head. He tried to knock them both
down. With the assistance of two other constables
he was taken to the station.

Prisoner had no questions to ask, and said he
was not in the habit of drinking. On Saturday he
met a friend who gave him some drink, and it over-
came him, so that he remembered nothing until he
found himself in the police col.
Mr. Selfe said he would not have the police
knocked about in this way, and had it not been for
his not being there before he would have sent him
to prison without a fine. He sentenced him to pay
40s. fine, or be imprisoned for a month.

MR. MACCABE'S EN7ER7AINMENT AT
THE EGYPTIAN BALL.

Mr. Frederic Maccabe, the incomparable mimic,
having installed himself in the apartment lately
tenanted by Ernst Schultz, is now nightly giving an
entertainment of the most attractive description.
Since we first had the pleasure of welcoming Mr.
Maccabe to London, he has very greatly improved
the entertainment he then introduced to us, so that it
now may be said to be perfectly unique. It consists,
as it did originally, of a variety of impersonations,
male and female, and whilst we are again intro-
duced to Miss Mary May, and other favourites, Mr.
Maccabe has given us various others that render
" Begone, Dull Care" the most attractive entertain-
ment now performing in the metropolis. The great
peculiarity of Mr. Maccabe's entertainment is the
rapidity with which the changes of character are
effected, hardly has the clever mimic announced the
arrival of the different visitors than they are at once
introduced to the audience in propria personx. The
change for Miss Mary May is really astonishing.
Mr. Maccabe has but just made his bow in full even-
ing costume, then he appears in the character of the
sympathetic young lady in ball dress, with earrings,
bracelets, gloves, fan, and all the elegant little
etceteras that make up the most piquant toilette.
The vocal illustrations are also of the greatest
excellence, and that they are of ability the familiar
sound of the now well-known song " Early in the
morning" abundantly testifies. Mr. Maccabe, being
a clever composer, a talented instrumentalist, and
a capital dramatic performer, is enabled, unaided,
to place before the public an entertainment of the
greatest excellence, and one which, we beg leave
to say, is in every way worthy of universal patron-
age.
