THE IRISHMAN IN LONDON.—AIice Nevett, aged 18, of
the thieves' colony, Flower and Dean Streets, Spitalfields,
was brought before Mr. Paget, charged with robbing a raw
young Irishman, named John Donovan, of his clothes and
la. 6d. in money. _ _

Tho Irishman, who bas recently loft the Green Isle, was
nyesterday
the evening, and she made an
impressione t by
on soft Emeraldor, whom she
r
heart
of
beguiled with her soft talk, and induced him to enter some
house of a questionable description near the Stepney Rail-
way Station. Ile laid down on the floor, and, overcome
by fatigue and the whisky he had been drinking, he soon
fell asleep. All his clothes were then on his person, and
when ho awoke they were gone.

Mr. Paget—What did you miss ?
The prosecutor—My hat, coat, trousers, waistcoat, boots,
stockings, scarf, and ls. Gd., all the money I had. I was
naked barring my shirt, and she would have taken that
too if she could. I roared out blue murder, and no ono
came but the pollishman, and he couldn't find anything
but moself, yer honour's wortship.
Robert Paxton, a police-constable, No. 223 K, said he
heard the prosecutor call out for assistance, and ascer-
tained that he had been stripped of his clothes. Ile was
under the necessity of providing him with clothes to enable
hira to walk to the station-house. The prisoner was a
most impudent and notorious thief.
The prisoner pleaded guilty, and Mr. Paget said the
rol bery was a very cruel one, and sentenced her to four
months' imprisonment and bard labour.

WESTMINSTER.

VIOLENT CONDtCT.—W. Ryan and his wife were charged
with using abusive language in the Two Brewers tavern,
Stratton-ground, and breaking a square of glass valued at
_ _ .

Mr. Roberts said the male prisoner came into his house
and called for a pint of beer, and shortly afterwards his
wife came in and a quarrel ensued. They both used very
bad language. Witness went and turned the male
prisoner out, when he used a stick he had with him and
smashed a pane of ornamental plate glass of the value of
.£7. He sent for a policeman, and the defendants wore
given in charge. The man said that he did not intend to
have broken the glass, as the blow was meant for the pro-
secutor's head.

The magistrate said if the prosecutor redueed the value
of the glass to £5 ho could adjudicate, if not the prisoners
must go for trial.
The prosecutor said that as the glass was insured he
would put the value at £5.
The male prisoner was sentenced to pay .£2 or one
month's hard labour, and the woman 10s. or one month's
imprisonment.
