MAR YLEB ONE.

Yesterday the rioters at the projected cemetery
in Kensall-green, Harrow-road, were re-examined
on the charge of brutally maltreating John Beach
Lyon, on the 9th instant, at which time Mr. Rogers,
the surgeon, of Willesden Cottages, Kensall-green,
certified that he was lying in a dangerous state,
owing to wounds upon his head and body.
The sufferer was now so far recovered as to be
enabled to prefer his charge; and John Murphy,
Charles Burke, and Michael Fleming, were placed
at the bar.

Complainant, John Beach Lyon, now deposed
that on Monday, the 9th instant, whilst he was
agreeing for a wheel-barrow at the Tom and Jerry
beer-shop, in the Harrow-road, somebody cried out,
" Your boy's being murdered !" He immediately
went to the spot, when Murphy was pointed out
to him as having ill-used the boy (John Lyon),
whom he heard moaning, and he asked him
(Murphy) where the lad was ? Murphy gave him
an unsatisfactory answer, and he struck him, on
which his legs were knocked from under him, and
he was kicked on all parts of his body. Here
some persons, whom he did not know, called out—
" Jump his guts out I" He recollected no more
after this, till he found himself with his head
lolling on a man's knee.
Lyon the youngattaid, that there had existed
some grudge betwixt the English and Irish on the
Sunday; and that on Monday he was running after
John Cabe, when Fleming ran after him, Lyon, and
Murphy, who came up, jammed him upon the side
so dreadfully, that nothing but his pocket-book in,his
left side coat pocket could have saved his life, saying,
" D—n you, take that."
Murphy observed, on hearing this, that riots hap-
pened on every Sunday.
The testimony of the witnesses, Frost, Lovell,
and Hope corroborated the principal points; each
stating, in addition, that there were by far too many
of the Irish for the English ; whilst the policemen
(S, 129 and 151) deposed to having had Fleming
and Murphy pointed out as injuring Lyon and his
boy.
Samuel Blake deposed to the violence that was
inflicted on Hope, whom young Lyon was running
to assist, by Murphy.
Mr. Chadwick, the undertaker of the cemetery
contract, said that certainly he was not upon the
ground when the affray took place ; but, upon in-
quiry, he was inclined to believe that Burke, who
had worked with him upwards of ten years, could
never have acted so violently as they described him.
Burke, on the contrary, had assured him privately

that he actually did every thing in his power to pre•
vent the row.

Mr. HOSKINS.---IS it your opinion, Mr. Chadwick,
that if the elder Lyon had not angrily struck Murphy
when told about his boy, there would have been an
end of it ?

Mr. Chadwick—I think so, Sir.
Several witnesses were called in Burke's favour.
Mr. HosmNs here referred to the notes respect-
ing Burke.
Fleming Burke, and Murphy, were then bound
over in their own sureties to answer the assault at
the Sessions; and Lyon, whose head is still bound
up, seemed to be smsfied with the result.
Yesterday the Baron de Laune was brought up
for final examination, on a charge of swindling and
fraud. No further evidence being adduced, he was'
fully committed for trial. There were several
tradesmen present who had been duped, but who
could not sustain any charges against the prisoner,
as he had been cunning enough to get bills of par.:
eels from them at the same time that he obtained
any goods. There is no doubt that the Baron is
connected with several other swindlers, who rept.
sent themselves to be merchants, and give an ex.
cellent account of his circumstances, when, accord-
ing to the Baron's reference, applications were made
to them. The Baron heard his commitment with
the greatest sangfroid.

Q UEEN. S QUARE.
Yesterday George a journeyman coach•
maker, who had been remanded from Friday, was
brought up for further examination before Mr.
WHITE, on the following charge :
It appeared that on last Thursday evening the
prisoner was seen by some persons scampering
over the tops of the houses in Stamford,streete
Blackfriars-road, and he made a stop at the aitid
window of Mr. John Edwards, No. 107 in tllM
street. That gentleman was immediately informed
of the circumstance, and, with assistance, hastened
to detect the interloper. The prisoner by some
means broke one of the windows; but whether it
was that circumstance, or hearing the noise of foot-
steps, that caused him to retreat, did not appear,
but he was soon seen scampering back faster than
he came, and enter the attic of an empty house in
the street, where he was taken prisoner.
The prisoner, in reply to the charge, said that he
only went to see the cook, and for several month
past he had visited her by a similar method.
Mr. WHITE asked him how he came to break the
window.

The prisoner replied that finding the window fas•
tened, and the cook not there, he bezaa to write on
the glass something he wished to communicate to her.
Mr. WHITE expressed his astonishment at such
an extraordinary method of communication; and
the prisoner's answers being very unsatisfactory, be
was remanded until yesterday, for inquiries to be
made about him.

Mr. Edwards now attended, and said that from
inquiries be had made respecting the prisoner's cha-
racter, he was quite satisfied that he had no inten-
tion whatever of injuring his property.
Mr. WHITE said that he was very happy to bear
it ; and the prisoner was discharged, with a recom•
mendation to send all h;s letters and communications
for the future by the Two•penny.post.
Sarah Whittle was charged with imposing on the
public by pretending to be attacked with the chc•
lera. She was observed by a policeman to fall down
in several places near Notting-hill and Shepherd's-
bush, and throw herself into all kinds of contortions
This generally caused the by-slanders to relieve her
liberally. When she had obtained money in this
way she moved to another place. Her impositions
met with the greater success as she bad the power
of " foaming blood from her mouth." She bad 12s.
on her person. The Magistrates committed her to
prison in default of bail.
