DESTROYING SIR CHARLES EASTLAKE'S WINDOWS..—
THE NEW ACT ON WILFUL DAMAGE.—Thos. Brown,
lad, was charged before Mr. Beadon with wilfully breaking
a pane of glass in the dining• room window of the residence
of Sir C. Eastlake, the president of the Royal Academy, 7,
Fitzroy-square.

Mr. Tucker, butler to Sir Charles, said that on the pre-
vious night, about nine, as he was passing through Fitz-
roy-square, he saw the defendant's hand move and a stone
go through the dining-room window of Sir Charles's resi-
dence, No. 7. Ho followed the prisoner and gave him in
charge.
Prisoner—l did it, and am sorry.

Mr. Beadon—There seems to be a set made on Sir Charles
Eastlake's house. It is a remarkable thing that it should
beldone a second time at the same house. [On the 28th
October, two lads, named Robert and Edward Tiggle, were
fined 2s. 6d. each for a similar act.]
Inspector Garforth, E division, said he thought it likely
that the defendant was connected with the others.
Mr. Beadon asked the defendant whether he knew the
others, and defendant said he did not.
Mr. Beadon said it was an outrageous affair,and he should
exercise the power now given him and commit the defen-
dant for one month with hard labour, and order him to pay
the damage, or another month's hard labour.
In. another ca'e, where a man named Edward Pence
broke a window, of the value of 355., and also destroyed an
urn, at the house of Mr. Robert Wilson, the Talbot,
Good ge- atre et, Tottenham-court-road,
Mr. Beadon said, but for the interference of the com-
plainant, he would have sentenced the defendant to hard
labour. In all these cases of wilful and malicious damage
he meant, now the act was in operation, to commit with hard
labour, besides making the persons pay for the damage
done. It was a most salutary act, and people of the defen-
dant's class had better be careful what they were about.

~......
The defendant was then ordered to pay 305., the amount
fixed by complainant.
