MR. CHARLES KLAN.—Letters received in Liver-
pool report that the health of Mr. Charles Kean has of late
greatly improved, and that ho may probably be able soon
to give readings, though it is doubtful whether the health-
ful breezes of the Cornish. and Devonshire coasts will so
far renew his strength as to enable him to reappear on the

stage.
A FATAL DIVE.—On Saturday afternoon a
melancholy accident took place on the Clyde in the course
of the Glasgow and Clydesdale Swimming Clubs' annual
competition. For a match at time diving there were five
entries, including ono John Gillham, a hatter by trade.
Gillham was the fourth to dive, those who had preceded
him having remained under water from 50 to 83 seconds.
As ho had declared himself capable of making 90 seconds,
no apprehension was felt till he had been about that time
out of sight. At last, however, the bystanders became
alarmed, and three young men dived repeatedly in the
hopes of catching their unfortunate comrade. They were
quite unsuccessful, nor did Gillham again appear alive at
tho surface. _ _

GUILDHALL.

CRUELTY TO A HORSE.-An omnibus proprietor, named
Jusson, appeared before Mr. Alderman Lusk on a sum-
mons charging him with cruelty to a horse, his property.
Mr. 11. R. Forster, a wine merchant in business in the
City, and who had formerly been secretary to the Society
for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, said that on the
21st of last month, about six o'clock in the afternoon, he
saw a man driving an omnibus in Nowgate-stroet, both the
horses were in a weak condition, and one of them
fell down from sheer exhaustion. lie got up, but shortly
afterwards fell down again, and it was evident that the
poor animal was quite unfit for work. Ile understood
that the driver, who wee not present, was not regularly in
the empluyinent of the defendant, and that the latter tole
bins it was his intention to dispose of his old stock. Under
these circumstances he did not wish to press the chergo.

The defendant said that until he received the summons
le was not aware of the condition of the horse.

Alderman Lusk said the defendant's intention of selling
his present stock of horses was not of the slightest
importance as regarded the present charge, and the horses
would in all probability be bought by some persons who
would still work them. Nothing could be more revolting
to the feelings of any rightly-constituted mind than the
cruel'y with which so valuable an animal as a horse was
treated. This barbarous conduct was most reprehensible,
and as far as was in his power he was determined to put
an end to it. The defendant was responsible for allowing
horses to be worked when not in a proper state, but as he
was not previously brought before the court he would not
inflict the full penalty, and would fine him only 50s.
ASSAULTING THE POLICE.—John Buggy, Who WAS em-
ployed at the gas works, at Bankside, was charged with
being drunk and disorderly and assaulting the police.
The first constable examined said that he was on duty
last night about half-past 12, on St. Andrew's-hill, and
saw the prisoner in the street, shouting and otherwiSe mis-
conducting himself. Ile refused to go away, and then
attacked the witness, striking him violently in the face
and kicked him. In the struggle that followed they both
fell down, when a brother officer came, and with the greatest
difficulty they succeeded in taking the prisoner to the
station.

Police-constable William John Morgan said that ho
found the previous witness and the prisoner on the ground
struggling, and ho interposed. The prisoner then attacked
him, and kicked him in a dangerous part. For some time
ho suffered much pain, but ho did not believe that he had
sustained any permanent injury.
Alderman Lusk commented on the dastardly conduct in
regard to the last witness, which was the worst part of the
charge against the prisoner, and he sentenced him to seven
days' hard labour.
