POLICE INTELLIGENCE.-THIS DAY.

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

Mr. Knox—lf you come here to-morrow I shal
be able to render you the assistance you require.
Mr. Bacon thanked the magistrate and retired.

THAMES.

A boy, who gave the name of Thomas Pitt, was
brought before Mr. Paget, charged with stone
throwing.
A gentleman named George Jeffries, whose
mouth was bleeding, and who was in considerable
pain, said that a few minutes ago he was passing
the end of Lucas-street, Commercial-road, and saw
the prisoner and another boy throwing stones at
each other. One of the stones hit him in the
mouth.

The prisoner, in defence, said that another boy
was about to throw a stone at him, and he took it
away and " chucked" it from him, and it struck the
gentleman.

Mr. Paget said that stone throwing in the public
streets was a dangerous nuisance, and fined the
prisoner 55., and in default of payment seven days'
imprisonment.

PARENTAL NEGLECT.—Barry Efford, aged 14
years, was brought before Mr. Paget charged with
stealing 7s. Gd.,
the monies of his father James
Efford, a shoemaker of Calvary-street, Stepney.
The prosecutor said that his son was a very
wicked boy, whose bad character was proverbial in
the neighbourhood, and that on Tuesday morning
last he took a waistcoat from under his (the father's)
pillow, and stole 7s. Gd. from one of the pockets.
He did not see his boy again until yesterday, and
then he gave him into custody. He had recently
made a pair of boots for his son, and he had sold
them and bought the old pair he was wearing. He
wished his son to be sent to a reformatory.
Mr. Paget said the prosecutor had brought his
son to that court to be relieved of the burthen of
maintaining him, and wished to set aside the great
law of nature, and the laws of the country, which
declared that every man should support his own
offspring. He would not relieve the prosecutor in
the way he desired, but send the boy to prison and
to hard labour for 14 days. The father was
answerable for the bad conduct of his son. If he
had brought him up in a proper manner he would
not have turned out dishonest.

A man at the back of the Court here suggested
that the prisoner was not the prosecutor's own son,
or he would not have prosecuted him.

Mr. Paget—A good suggestion. Is this your
stepson ?

The prosecutor—No ; my own son, born in law
ful wedlock.

The man at the back of the Court—Shameful
.t is a disgrace to you.

The Prosecutor--I don't see that at all.

MR. FINLEN AND IIIS LANDLORD--SINGULAR
APPLICATION.—Mr. J. Bacon, plumber, &c., of No.
28, Church-street, Soho, and No. 16, Tower-street,
St. Martin's-lane, the landlord of Mr. Finlen, a well-
known attendant at public meetings, waited upon
Mr. Knox this morning and said :—Your worship, I
want to know what lam to do. You granted me a
warrant, you may remember, to get rid of Finlen,
and I want you to put it into execution. The
broker has been into Finlen's place, and has valued
his furniture at 25., there being nothing in the
place but an old mattress, a cover, and a dish.
When the doctor made his statement to you he said
there was a bed in the place, but he made a mis-
take, as it's only an old mattress, and the broker
says it's not worth taking away. Finlen told my
missus that he would bring 100 persons and take the
place by storm, and my missus told him that
if he did she would let them have a pail
of water over them, and that she was not afraid of
them. Half a dozen men did come, and my missus
told them that she was not afraid of them, and that
if they were not off like a shot she would let them
have what she had promised them, and they would
have had it too, for when my missus promises a
thing she means it. I went to bed that night, and
on getting up at a very early hour and going down
stairs I found my missus sitting in the passage
with a pail of water by her side. I said,
" Well, missus, what are you waiting for ?"
"Oh," says she, "Ifor Mr. Finlen and the Fenians."
I then said, " What's that pail of water for ?" and she
says, " For the Fenians." He told her to go to bed
and not mind Mr. Finleu and his friends, and she
did so. The policeman on going into Fiulen's room
found that one of the notices served on him had
been torn to pieces. All I want is to get rid of my
lodger, who still holds possession.
