POLICE IN TELLIGESCE. This Day.

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.
truzio TII TEETH.—James Rush, a rough-looking fel-
low, was charged before Mr. Tyrwhitt with being drunk
and assaulting poliee-constable Marks, 120 C.
The constable stated that he saw the prisoner at the
top of the Haymarket yesterday afternoon, very drunk,
and making a disturbance. He requested the prisoner to
go away, but he refused, and threatened to knock him
down with a broom he had in his hand. Ile then took
the prisoner into custody, when he became very violent,
and seizing his hand bit it severely, and also kicked a per-
son who came to his assistance.

Brazier, 158 C, said that on going to the assistance of
Marks he found the prisoner kicking violently, and on the
way to the station the prisoner tried to bite him.

The prisoner said he had assisted a man in putting
some goods, into a van, and that the man having stood
seven or eight half-pints of rum he got drunk.
Mr. Tyrwhitt said he would never pass over the brutal
practice of biting. It was a practice disgraceful to human
nature, and showed what low wretches there were. The
prisoner would be fined 285., or 14 days.

"Maggie" (Newcastle-on-Tyne) has forwarded 10s. for
the poor people Long and Felds, whose case a few days
agoappeared in this journal.

THAMES.

MATRIMONIAL SQUABBLES.—EIyam Rees, a middle-aged
man, was brought before Mr. Partridge, charged with as-.
saulting Eliza Rees his wife, who said she had been mar-
ried to the prisoner 17 years. She had tasted all the
bitters of matrimony, but none of its sweets, and her life
had been like that of a harrow. She prepared dinnor for
her husband at 2 o'clock yesterday, and he did not return
home till 8 o'clock in the evening. She was then out with
a female friend, who came home with her at 10 o'clock,
and remarked what very nice little rooms she possessed,
and how happy she must be. All is not gold that glitters
Mr. Partridge—Never mind your nice little rooms, tell
me what your husband has done, and make haste about it.
Witness—He did not like the woman I brought home
with me, and he began to swear at me, and punch me, and
gave me a black eye. I have summoned him to this court
before, and he has been bound over to keep the peace to-
wards me, and is under recognizances now.
The prisoner said he was grossly provoked by his wife
last night, and she struck him three times on the head
with a candlestick before he hit her.

The Wife—He told that to the police last night, and I
denied it. There is not a mark on his head.

Inspector Brady, of the K division, examined the pri-
soner's cap handed to him, and said there was a grease
mark outside, and it was broken within. There was no
mark on the prisoner's head.

The prisoner said his wifo was a drunken and dissi-
pated woman. He paid a fine of 40s. for her on one occa-
sion, and a guinea to a solicitor on another eccasion to get
her out of trouble.

Roche, the gaolor of the court, said ho recollected the
complainant well ; she was not at all a sober woman.
Mr. Partridge said the prisoner had no business to strike
his wife, and he should bind him over to keop the poaco
towards his wife for six months, and he must pay tho
usual feo on entering into his rocognisances.

mersed by the breaking of tho ice and every one drowned.
