CRIMINAL COURT—(This Day.)

...,.
..

OLD COIT:RT.
(Before Mr. Justice Williams).

Sabetto lucent°, aged 29, an Italian, was charged
with feloniously stabbing Francesco Desemona, with
intent to do him grievous bodily harm. Mr. Way con-
ducted the prosecution. - •

It appears that the prosecutor and the prisoner were
fellow-countrymen and related to each other, and on the
28th February they were drinking together at the resi-
dence of the former, and when about to leave the prose-
cutor's, without any apparent cause, made an attack upon
the prosecutor, and wounded him in the neck with some
sharp instrument, and also cut his thumb in his endea-
vour to get the knife from the prisoner. '
The defence was that the prisoner had been drinking,
and had no recollection of *hat took place.

The jury found the prisoner guilty of unlawfully
wounding. •

The prosecutor strongly recommended the prisoner to

mercy.
The learned Judge sentenced the prisoner to three
months' imprisonment.

Kreutz Chesen, aged 2S, a Norwegian sailer, was also
indicted for feloniously wounding ••Charles Felix, a
foreign seaman, with a knife. '
Mr. Ribton conducted the prosecution, and Mr.
Sleigh defended the prisoner. •

It appeared that on the night of the 11th of March
the prisoner, the prosecutor, and a number of other
persons were at the Prussian Eagle, near Wellclose-
square where dancing was going on. The prisoner was
laying h(.14 of a girl, inducing her to danoe with him,
which ehe • refused to do. Prosecutor told him to
let the girl alone, if she refused to dance with him.
A quarrel ensued,, when, the prisoner took up a beer
glass and struck a friend of the prosecutor on the head,
and .a general row was the consequence. The prose-
cutor ma away to his lodgings in Ship-yard, followed
by the prisoner and a number of other persons, and as
soon as the prosecutor got to the staircase, the prisoner
overtook him and struck him a blow on the left side of
the forehead, from which blood immediately flowed ; and
at the time he inflicted the blow he had bold of the
prosecutor by the hair of his head. Before this the pri-
soner was seen to have a case knife in his hand. After
the blow the police were sent for, and the prisoner given
into custody.; After the evidence bad been given,
Mi. Sleigh addressed the jury on behalf of the pri-
soner.

The jury found the prisoner guilty, and he was sen-
tenced to 12 months' imprisonment.
