DENIS LE MARCHANT.
Board of Trade, WhitPhnll, July 6, 1850.

CENTRAL CRIMINAL COURT.
NEW COURT.
(Before the COM MON•SERGRANT.)
Henry Page, 36, bricklayer, was indicted for felo-
niously intermarrying with Emma Clarke, otherwise
Smith, his wife being then and now alive.
Mr. Chareock defended.
Mrs. Martha Page, the prisoner's mother, proved his
first marriage on the 6th of April, 1834, at St. John's
the Evangelist, Waterloo-road, to one Ellen Ragan, by
whom he had two children. He lived with her until
about two years ago, when, in consequence of her dread-
fully dissolute habits, he was compelled to be sepa-
rated from her, and made her an allowance of 6s. per
week.
Evidence was then given to prove that on the 10th o f
February, 1848, some one of the name of Henry Dick-
son was married at All Saints, Poplar, to one Emma
Smith, but it could not be proved that the prisoner was
the man or that Emma Clarke, who was then in die
dock behind the prisoner awaiting her trial for haying
committed bigamy with him, was the woman referred to
in the register.
The woman Clarke was then brought out of the dock
into the witness-box, and having been sworn, and cau-
tioned not to say enytbing to criminate herself unless
she pleased, said that she knew the prisoner from his
coining to her husband's house, and that her husband
always yet uraged their acquaintance.
The COMMON- SERGEANT—Did anything ever occur
between you and the prisoner at church? You need
not answer unless you like. Witness—No ; nothing
ever did.
The COMMON-SERGEANT said there was an end of the
case; there was no evidence to prove the prisoner was
the man married at Poplar Church.
An acquittal was then taken.
Emma Clarke, 30, married, was then indicted for
bigamy with Henry Page, alias Dickson, her husband
being then alive.
It was then proved that she was married in February,
1842, to her husband Clarke, who is now alive, but thip
Fame d'fliculty arose in proving her to be the party mar*
tied at All Saints, Poplar.
The police-officer said he saw the prisoner at her hus-
band's house on the 17th of June. She was recovering
from an illness. She told him that she was married in
1848, at All Saints, Poplar, to the prisoner Page, she in
the name of Smith and he Dickson; that the only per-
sons present were the clerk and the pew-opener as wit-
nesses to the marriage.
Mr. CHARNOCK having briefly addressed the jury,
dwelt on the fact that the only evidence against her was
the statement made by her when on a bed of sickn ass
and which she now denied on oath.
The COMMON-SERGEANT having summed up,
The jury acquitted her.
THIRD COURT.
(Before Mr. Commissioner GURNEY.)
James Cole, 24, polisher, was indicted for stealing II
watch, salued at 221., from the person of William Perry.
Mr. Parry defended.
The prosecutor, who is well known to the sportirg
world as the Tipton Slasher, the pugilist, said Viet
about half-past four o'clock on Monday morning he was
at the bar of' the Red Lion, in the Strand, drinking, and
several more besides the prisoner were near him. Some
one began to spar at him, when a female pressed herself
against him, and almost immediately feeling his watch
snatched from his pocket, as he thought by the prisoner,
he seized him, and immediately his watch and chain fell
to the ground at his feet.
Mr. GURNEY said it was not sufficiently clear that the
prisoner's was the hand that tuuk it, and directed an
acquittal.
Henry Wright, 20, barman, and Caro!ine Danig, were
indicted for stealing several sums of money from John
Plowman, the master of Wright.
Mr. Robinson prosecuted.
It appeared that the prosecutor keeps the Three
Compasses in the Wandsworth-road, and the male pri-
soner had been a short titue in his employment as a
barman, during which period great deficiencies hael
been found in his takings. Having set the police on the
watch they found out that the woman, who either was
his wife or lived with him, was in the habit of coining
and putting down a small coin in payment fur something,
and received from the prisoner more change than she
was entitled to; and in the present instance they took
her at the bar of the house, having received 2s. lid. in
change for Is.
The jury, thinking the woman had acted under the
guidance of the male prisoner, acquitted her, and he
was found Guilty, and sentenced to twelve months' im-
prisonment.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.
GUILDHALL.

Yesterday the young man who described himself on a
former examination as a determined Chartist, was again
placed at the bar before Mr. Alderman Salomons, for
further examination on the charge of sedition.
Mr. Maule, the solicitor for tee Home•offiee, attended
on the part of the Government for the prosecution, and
stated that he appeared by the direction of the Secretary
of State for the Home Department, to request the Al-
derman to deal with the case summarily, by binding the
prisoner over to keep the peace towards her Majesty
and all her subjects.
After a recapitulation of the facts already published,
The ALDERMAN said, it is my intention to bind you
over to keep the peace for twelve months, and to order
you to find bail for your good behaviour during that
lime in two sureties of 1001. each, or one of 100/., and
to enter into your own recognisaners of 2001., more
to the same effect.

Prisoner—l'll consider about giving bail.
He was then removed from the dock evidently much
disappointed at not being sent for trial.
The court was very much crowded, and the result
appeared to give general satisfaction to those present
during the examination.

NARROW ESCAPES FROM DROWNING.—On Tuesday
last, about 10 o'clock, a girl of the name of Maria Street,
whose lather resides on the Beddow-road, was tending
a child near the first lock on the Chelmer amyllackwater
Canal, when, in endeavouring to reach a flower in the river,
she overbalanced herself and tell from the curb-stone into the
water, which, at that place, is about 9 feet deep. Some lads
who were at hand, gave the alarm, and, happily,
prevented
the child from following her nurse. The poor girl had twice
risen to the surface, and again sunk, when Lewis Cox. a
