SUMMARY JUSTICE ABUSED.—Charles Evans, a young
man, st Aid by the police to belong to the Keate•street gang
in Spitalfields, was brought before Mr. Woolrych charged
trith-eteallng a prime piece of beef, weighing 71b., from
the shop of Mr. Jacob Sulan, butcher, of No. 22, High-
street, SVhitcchapel.
Mr. Sulan stated that at 10 o'clock on Saturday night,
while his shop was full of people and he was very busy,
a female servant who was behind the counter called out to
him, " There's a piece of meat going." Ho turned round
and saw the prisoner removing a piece of beef from one of
the hooks. The prisoner succeeded in taking away the
beef, and not knowing the neighbourhood well, ran down
Pickford's yard a few yards from the shop, in which
there was no thoroughfare. He pursued the prisoner,
who, finding there was no outlet, threw away the meat
at the end of the yard, retraced his stops, and was stopped
by the son of witness, who secured him.
Mr. Sulan, who has been a great loser by the depreda-
tions of thieves, then produced the beef, and said he would
have given the prisoner a sound thrashing, and not have
troubled the magistrate with the case, but if ho had done
so it was probable he should have been abused by all the
old women in the street. He lost a side of pork a little
while ago, caught the fellow with it, and gave the thief a
good hiding, for which he was abused.
Mr. Woolrych—That was summary justice abused. You
had better bring the thieves here, Mr. Sulan.
The prisoner pleaded guilty.

Mr. Woolrych—This is a very impudent robbery. You
are sentenced to be imprisoned for two months, and kept
to hard labour in the Nouse of Correction.

Colonel and Lady Caroline Towneley have arrived
at their residence in Charles-street from Paris.

Count and Countess De Bergen and the Baron

REPRESENTATION OF MARYLEBONE.—The return-
ing officer has fixed Wednesday next for the nomination of
candidates who are desirous of the honour of representing
this borough in Parliament. The nomination will take
place, as usual, on hustings erected at the top of Portland-
place. There are now five candidates in the field, all of
them professing Liberal principles, viz., Mr. llarvey Lewis,
Mr. Wingrove Cooke, Mr. Harper Twelvetrees, Mr. E.
Auchmuty Glover, and Mr. J. C. Marslmen. Both Major
Lyon and Col. :Romilly have declined to be put in nomi-
nation. In order that there should not be anything like a
split in the Liberal camp, Mr. Harvey Lewis has expressed
his readiness to abide by the decision of a public meeting of
the electors convened for the purpose; but there will be
scarcely time for such a proceeding.
DREADFUL FIRE IN DUBLIN—ELEVEN LIVES
LOST-DUBLIN, April 14.—Last Sunday Dublin was ex-
cited by the dreadful omnibus accident that occurred at
Portobello-bridge, and this morning an equally fearful

this fearful accident was caused by drink. A man who in •
habited the upper storey went to bed drunk, and uncon-

The Tribunal of Correctional Police on Friday
tried a married woman named Cordier for receiving money
which she must have known to have been stolen, and her
husband and two brothers named Tournier for having as-
saulted a police-offieer sent to arrest her. A little boy, 9
years of age, named Vallot, was placed in the witness-box.
" You stole 45f. from your father I" said the President.
"Yes," answered the boy. "On going one morning to
my father's chamber to say good day, I saw his waistcoat
on the floor, and on picking it up 45f. fell out. As he was
asleep, I took the money." " And what did you do with
it ?" " I carried 40f. of it to Madame Cordier, who kept a
shop, and told her to give me fried potatoes, barley sugar,
and gingerbread for it." "And what did you do with
the other sf. ?" " Spent them in riding on wooden
horses in a booth!" " What did the woman give you for
your 40f. ?" " One day she gave me, my brother, and an-
other boy If. worth of fried potatoes, the next day 8 sous
worth, and the third lf. 4 sous worth of barley sugar. She
then told me all the money was spent, and that I could have
nothing more." It was then stated to the tribunal that the
boy's father having complained to the police, an officer was
sent to queston the woman, but he learned that she and
her husband had hastily sold off the goodwill of their busi-
ness, and wore about to take the Lyons railway to go to
Savoy, their country. The man were to the railway station
and presently the woman and her husband, accompanied by
the two Tourniers, their friends, arrived. lie advanced to-
wards the woman to arrest her, but she ran away, and when
he wanted to run after the three men held him, and Cordier
struck him. Two other policemen, however, came, and the
three men were secured , the woman also was captured. In
a basket carried by the latter was a sum of 1,010 francs.
The Tribunal condemned Cordier and his wife each to
three months' iraprie9nulOtt and the twQ brothers to a
I,OrtaiSilt each,
