POLICE INTELLIGENCE-(THIS DA F.)

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

SERIOUS INJURY CAUSED BY A DRUNKEN
Charles Bartlett, a boy of between 11 and 12 years of age,
an errand boy, was charged before Mr. Bingham with be-
ing drunk and furiously driving a cart in Piccadilly,
damaging cab 1,752, and also breaking the leg of a cabman
named Robert -Aldridge.

Payne, 42 C, put in a certificate signed by the house-
surgeon of St. George's Hospital, stating that the injured
man was an in-patient of the hospital with a fractured leg
Wm. Stockwell, hackney-carriage attendant No. 32, said
he was called the previous afternoon, a little after two, to
stop the boy, who was driving a cart in the Albany, Picca-
dilly, at a sharp rate. He was told to detain him as he had
run over a cabman. The boy was whipping the horse at
the time with the reins, and was standing up in a " see-
sawing " state. He took him to the station.
Rough, 178 C, said ho took the injured man Aldridge to
the St. George's Hospital. The proper driver was now in
court.

A carman in the employ of Mr. Leftwich, the ice mer-
chant, the owner of the cart, said the boy only had a glass
of ale with his dinner. He left him outside of a house in
charge of the cart while he went in, and when he came out
he was gone.

Mr. Bingham said the glass of ale appeared to have been
too much for him. Mr. Leftwich must be bail for the boy,
who would be remanded for a week to see the result of the
injuries the man had sustained.

The carman said he went to the hospital, and understood
the man was in a fair way, but that he would most likely be
[aid up for some weeks. "

Remanded.

The marriage of Charles Bruce, youngest son of
the late Marquis of Ailesbury, to Miss Augusta Seymour,
daughter of Lady Augusta Seymour, and niece to the Mar.
quis of Bristol, will take place in February next.

PERILOUS FEAT.—On Tuesday last, when the
final or top-stone, which is carved like a large flower, was
placed on the summit of Christ Church spire, at Clifton,
one of the workmen mounted and stood on his head upon
this dizzy point. It was a most nervoas sight to look at
the fellow from the road, as with his legs up in the air he
beat his feet together.
