MIDDLESEX SESSIONS.--(This Day.)

(Before the Assistant Judge.)

James Simmons was indicted for stealing a silver watch,
the property of a gentleman named Turner.

The jury found the prisoner guilty, and he was sentenced
to two years' imprisonment with hard labour.

Charles Turnpenny was indicted for feloniously assault-
ing police-constable Billing, 98 G.
From the evidence it appeared that while the prisoner
Simmonds was being conveyed to the station in charge of
police-constable Billing, Turnpenny, who was associated
with the prisoner, attempted to incite him to escape. Fail-
ing in this he retired, and police.-constable 211 G saw him
pick up a stone and deliberately throw it at Billing. The
stone struck the constable on the forehead, and inflicted a
severe wound.

The jury found the prisoner guilty.
The Assistant-Judge said it was a very cowardly offence,
and sentenced the prisoner to two years' imprisonment with
hard labour.

Two men, named Johnson and Smith, were indicted for
stealing a neckcloth value £2.
The prisoners, in attempting to dispose of the property,
were taken into custody on suspicion of having stolen the
cloth, which turned out to be true.
The jury found both prisoners guilty.
There was another indictment for felony against Smith,
to which he pleaded guilty.
The Assistant Judge asked whether anything was known
against the prisoners.

Against Johnson nothing was said, but Smith, the learned
judge was informed, had previously been convicted for steal-
ing 1131bs. of lead from the Orphan Working School, and
for which offence he was sentenced to seven years' trans-
portation, which only expired last year.
The learned Judge said it appeared more than likely that
Johnson had been the tool of the elder prisoner, and that
being his opinion he was induced to take a lenient view of
the case as far as he was concerned, and he should only sen-
tence him to six months' imprisonment. With respect to
Smith he had no hesitation in sentencing him to eight years'
penal servitude.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.—(This Day.)

BOW-STREET.

Margaret Porter was charged with breaking a large
quantity of glass, the property of a licensed victualler in
Queen-street.

The complainant said last night the prisoner was stand-
ing in front of the bar interfering with a gentleman who
had been paying her some money. She told her to leave
off, but she refused, and as her customers again complained
of her conduct she went round to persuade her to leave the
house. Immediately she got in front of the prisoner she
took hold of her (complainant's) cap and tore it into rib-
bons ; and when she attempted to free herself from the pri-
soner's grasp she took up a pint pot and threw it at her,
which fortunately missed her head, but struck one of the
shelves in the bar, which was filled with glasses, decanters,
and other articles. The shelf fell, and the whole of the
glass was broken: After some difficulty the prisoner was
got out of the house and given into custody.
Prisoner said it was nothing of the kind. The gentleman
was larking with her, and the landlady felt annoyed at it.
She came round and seizing her by the hair attempted to
put her out of the house. To induce her to leave her hold
she did take up a pint pot and throw it at some !glass, but
instead of the great quantity broken, the complainant spoke
of only three tumblers we destroyed.

Mr. Henry told the prisoner she must pay 205,, the cost
of the glass which had been destroyed, or go to prison for
14 days.

Prisoner—l only broke three tumblers. I've no money,
so I can't pay at present. She was then locked up in de-
fault.

Charles Parker, an aged man, was charged with stealing
an iron vice from a shop in St. Giles's.

William Jackson, marine-store dealer, said last night ho
was called by one of his children, who was standing at his
shop door, saying that a man had stolen something from
the door. He ran after him and overtook the prisoner,
who had the iron vice in his hand. It Was worth about
4s. 6d.

The prisoner said he was a tailor by trade, and he took
the vice through want, he had nothing to eat all day yes-
terday, and hunger compelled him to steal the property. I
plead guilty to stealing the article.
Mr. Henry—Where have you been employed ?

Prisoner—l've done no work for the last three years, at
least no regular work. I've bought some old clothes, which
I doctered up and sold, but I could not make anything by
the transaction.

Mr. Henry—l should think you could get employment
if you tried.
Prisoner—No, sir, I can't. I tried hard, but it's no use;
they won't employ old men.

Mr. Henry—You might get work of some kind, at less
wages than young men.

Prisoner—Reduced wages! Why, they only pay Thd.
for making a pair of cord trousers, out of which you have
to find your own trimming, thread, silk, and twist. Groves
is only giving 10d.
Mr. Henry—How old are you
Prisoner—Fifty-seven; and I never was in trouble
before.

Mr. Henry—l must have some inquiry made about you.
Remanded.

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

ROBBERY AT THE ST. JAMES' DINING ROOMS.—John
Stone, an artful looking young fellow, and who there is
little doubt has appeared in police courts on former occa-
sions, was charged with stealing an umbrella and fork from
the St. James's Dining Rooms.

It appeared from the evidence of an assistant waiter,
George Alfred James, that on the previous night while
coming down the stairs from the dining room he saw the
prisoner in the back bar, and as soon as the prisoner saw
him he ran out of the place, an umbrella and a spoon being
dropped in the passage. He went after the prisoner, and
having set up the cry of " Stop Thief," the prisoner was
taken into custody.

The prisoner cross-examined the witness, but the only
effect of his doing so was to make the case clear against
him.

Herring, 60 0, said hearing a cry of " Stop Thief" ho
caught the prisoner, who was running, and said he had as
much right to run as anybody else.
Mr. Beadon told tho prisoner that it was clear he was
there for an improper purpose, and committed him for three
months' hard labour.

A Guoss IMPOSTOR.—Elizabeth Balls was charged as
follows :—She weht into the shop of Mr. Robert Cox,
jeweller, of 361, Oxford-street, when there were some cus-
tomers there, and Mr. Cox to get rid of her gave her a
penny. Thinking that she was an impostor he followed
her, and saw her go into several other shops, and then into
a public-house. On her coming out he asked her if she
had paid for what she had, and she, thinking he was con-
nected with the public-house, replied, ,4 Oh, yes, I paid 20.
for a half-quartern of gin." She then walked back in front
of Mr. Cox's house—Mr. Cox being one of the guardians
of the poor of St. James's—and there begged of a gentle-
man, and Mr. Cox then gave her in charge.
Mr. Beadon committed her for seven days.

,ITIE S.

CLERKENWELL.
ASSAULTING THE POLICE.—ThIIahy Crawley, a young
man, was charged with violently assaulting the police, and
Michael Crawley, his father, was charged with attempting
to rescue his son from custody.
From the evidence of police-constable 202 G, it appeared
that the younger prisoner, about half-past 7 last evening,
was creating a disturbance in Leather-lane. As he was
very much intoxicated the policeman persuaded him to go
away, but instead of taking the constable's advice, he began
a violent attack upon him. The constable had to call for
further assistance, when G 201 came up, and they endea-
voured to take Crawley to the station. He struggled very
violently and repeatedly called out for help, when the elder
prisoner came up and attempted to rescue his son from cus-
tody. Another constable attracted by the noise came to the
spot, and then a regular fight took place between the two
prisoners, and the officers. After a great deal of trouble
both were safely conveyed to the station-house, but not
before some of the constables' clothing had been torn.
Mr. Wakeling subjected the constables to a rigid cross-
examination, but they persisted in their statements that
both prisoners conducted themselves in the most violent
manner, and that the force that was used to convey them
to the station was actually necessary.
➢Tr. Barker sent both prisoners to the House of Correc-
tion for a month.

drunkenness, and ribaldry ; and my wife, a timid woman,
has been greatly alarmed.
Mr. Woolrych—Give them notice to quit.
The applicant—l have done so. The notice expires to-
day. They say they wont leave. They have no furniture.
I have been kept up all night, and am quite unfitted for
business.

Mr. Woolrych advised the applicant to purchase a printed
form and give his tenants a second notice to quit. If that
was not complied with on or before Wednesday next, he
(Mr. Woolrych) would issue his warrant to eject the parties.
