WORSITIP-STREET.—Mr. John Sharpe, a
fruit salesman in Thames-street, attended before
Mr. D'Eyncourt, at the instance of the district
Board of Works of Whitechapel, to answer an in-
formation i❑ which he was charged with being the
owner of certain houses in that parish which were
wholly unfit for occupation.
Mr. Wm. Coward, the sanitary inspector of the
district, said, that in consequence of being informed
that numerous cases of malignant fever had occurred
within three weeks in the court in which the houses
in question were situated, he on the 4th inst. visited
the place officially, in order to examine and report
upon its condition. The court consisted of a cluster
of four or five-roomed houses, abutting at the rear
upon a high walls which had the effect of greatly
excluding light and ventilation, and the houses
were lot out in tenements to different poor families,
In the first house he entered he found the front
room occupied by a man and his wife and three
grown-up daughters, the latter of whom were all
affected by fever ; and the adjoining room was
occupied by another man and wife and four chil-
dren, two of whom were suffering from the same
disease, and were apparently in a dangerous state.
All the other rooms in that and the adjoining
houses were equally overcrowded with poor occu-
pants of both sexes, without that proper regard for
the requirements of common decency that ought
to be exhibited, and displayed the same features of
dirtiness, disease, and destitution, to a greater or
less extent.

Mr. Liddle, the medical officer to the Board,
fully confirmed the evidence of the last witness with
respect to the offinsive and improper condition of
the habitations, which was detrimental to the health
of the tenants, and calculated to spread its effects
through the surrounding neighbourhood.
The defendant at once candidly acknowledged
that as far as his houses were concerned they were
certainly net in so satisfactory a state for habita-
tion as he should wish, but he assured the magis-
trate that since he had lad it it had been a most
expensive property to him ; and as a confirmation
of that, he might mention that each of the houses
was subject to a ground rent of 81., and that he
bad altogether sustained a loss of several hundred
pounds since the property had come into his pos-
session ; indeed, he was so thoroughly worn out
with vexation about it that he was almost inclined
to offer a handsome bonus to any one who would
take it off his hands.

Mr. D'Eyncourt said that, as the condition ,of
various premises had been so clearly deposed to,
and so freely admitted by the defendant himself, it
only remained for him to make an order that the
necessary steps should be adopted for the effectual
cleansing and ventilation of the houses ; and he felt
that he must also, under such circumstances, issuo
an order for the immediate expulsion of the tenants,
in accordance with the provisions of the Act.
The inspector thought there would be a good
deal of difficulty attending the expulsion of the
tenants, as there generally was in such cases ; but
the magistrate told him to explain to them that it
was compulsory, and that under the 14th section
of the statute they were liable to a penalty of 20s.
for every day they retained possession after the
notice of removal had been served upon them.

LAMBETH.—Thomas Scott, a youth of 16 years
of age, and Charles Crisp, aged 15, were charged
before the Hon. G. C. Norton with stealing a corn
sack of the value of ls. 6d. front a waggon in Lam-
beth-walk.'
The evidence against the prisoners was perfectly
conclusive of their guilt. Scott was seen to take
the Back from the waggon and give it to Crisp, and
both were taken with the sack in their possession.
The prisoner Scott, it was said, was of respectable
parents and had a comfortable home, but such was
his disposition to dishonest practices that he fre-
quently absented himself from the roof of bis
parents to indulge in his propensities, and on two
occasions he had be nn summarily convicted and
sent to prison from this court. His sister, a
respectable-looking young woman, informed the
magistrate that on one occasion, observing that
the prisoner was about to leave home to join
his companions in crime, she locked up bis
cloth(s to prevent him, but he swore at her so,
and made use of such threats as to run her through
with a knife, that she was glad to give them up to
him. Both the prisoners pleaded guilty, and Mr.
Norton was about to order the gaoler to give them
a sound flogging, when he discovered that both
were over the age of 14, and therefore the Act of
Parliament would not justify him in making such
an order. A long experience enabled him to say,
that a sound flogging had a much more salutary
effect on juvenile offenders than imprisonment, and
he observed that prisoners who were whipped sel-
dom returned, while those who were committed to
prison invariably came back again and again. He
(Mr. Norton) considered that a great deal might be
achomplished in the way of reformation by altering
the law so as to give the magi,trates the power of
ordering flogging up to the age of 16, instead of 14,
as at present. In the case of the prisoner Scott, it
was clear that a prison had lost all its terrors for
him, and that a good whipping would be the proper
punishment for the present offence, yet he (Mr.
Norton) could not legally order, it, he being over
14 years of age, and on this point the law, he
thought, could be most advantageously altered.
Addressing Scott he asked the prisoner whether he
would prefer his being whipped and discharged to
his being sent to prison, and he replied he should
prefer being sent to prison, and the other prisoner
slid the same, upon which Mr. Norton remarked
that the choice made by the prisoners was a centir-
matihn of his opinion, and said that reformatories
would be found ineffectual until the law, as lie sug-
gested, should be altered. 110 was th.1).1 about to
commit the prisoners to the House of Correction,
but they having in the interim plucked up courage,
said they would be whipped and discharged, and
Cooke, the gaoler, gave them a pound flogging.
