POLICE INTELLIGENCE.-THIS DAY.

WESTMINSTER.

DIVORCE AND MATRIMONIAL CAUSES ACT.—A
very respectable looking and middle-aged woman
came to the court and requested Mr. Ingham, the
presiding magistrate, to grant her a protection order
under the Matrimonial Causes Act.

She stated that she had been married on the Ist
of August, 1858, and only lived with her husband
twelve months when he deserted her.

Mr. Ingham--W hen did you last bear of him or
see Lim ?

Applicant—l have not seen him since he left me,
and the last time I heard of him was by letter six
years ago.

Mr. Ingham—Under what circumstances did you
part ?

Applicant—l left him because of his conduct to-
wards me. We agreed to separate.
Mr. Ingham—You parted by mutual consent ?

Applicant—Yes, certainly.
Mr. Ingham—llow can I say he left you, when
you left him, or left one another by mutual con-
sent ?

Applicant--I really could not live with him, he so
much ill-treated me.

Mr. Ingham—That may be, but I have no power
to grant an order unless he has deserted you.
Applicant —I have not received a penny from
him, either for the support of myself or child, for
nine years.

Mr. Ingham—Was it arranged that you were
each to maintain yourselves at the time of your
separation ?

Applicant—No. He had broken ,"up our home,
and sold it through drink. I was to go to my
family ; he was to get up a fresh home and then
send to me, but he never did.

Mr. Ingham—That certainly alters it. What do
you want protected ?

Applicant—Some property has just been left me.
He might come and take it, although he has loft me
all these years to keep myself and child.

/Ir. Ingham —I will grant you the order from
January, 1867.

THAMES.

A MODERN JEREMY DlDDLER.—Yesterday 12
tradesmen dwelling in Poplar, Limehouse, and Step-
ney, came before Mr. Paget to complain of being
swindled by a man named Albert Lindley Barton,
who came home as the third mate of a ship called
the Hotspur, three years ago, and who, they be-
lieved, had no settled occupation since that time.
He was described as a tall and plausible man, whose
debts had once been paid by his father, who
held a very
high commercial position. He
lodged at the house of Mr. Fitzmaurice,
of Montague House Academy, Poplar, for five
weeks, and lived rather extravagantly there, with
wine on his table every Sunday, and one or two
servants to wait upon him. He suddenly took
his departure from Mr. Fitzmaurice, leaving unpaid
a debt of £l6 Bs.

Mr. Paget said he could not assist the applicant,
who could see his debtor in a county court.
Mr. Picnington, shoemaker, of Poplar, repaired
a pair of boots for Mr. Barton, for which he had
paid him, and he then ordered a pair of side-
spring boots for 18s. 91, with which the modern
Jeremy Diddler walked off, end he had not seen
him since. The traveller to Mr. Brill, outfitter, in
the Commercial-road, said Mr. Barton favoured
his principal with orders to the amount of £8 12s.
4d., and the debtor had been since non est inventus.
Mr. Peacock,
manager to Shores and Co., out-
fitters, at the corner of White Horse-street, Step-
ney, said that Mr. Barton selected some clothes,
which were sent to his lodgings, and directions
given to the messenger not to leave them with-
out the money,
but
.Mr. Barton contrived to
without paying for them.
obtain the' goods
and came to the shop and ordered more.
He observed to Mr. Barton, " Why, you have
not paid for the other clothes delivered at
your residence," on which Mr. Barton stuck his
hands in his pockets, and said, "I can pay you ;
I have the money." He (Mr. Peacock) thought the
be -raid adorn, 17uti, inabco.cl
doing so, Mr. Barton said, " Make out a bill for
the total amount of both orders, and I will pay
them together."

Mr. Paget—Then you twice supplied him with
goods ?

Mr. Peacock—Yes, sir, to the amount of £2O, on
the faith of his representation that he was going out
as chief mate of a ship.
Mr. Paget—Perhaps he is going out as chief hate
of a ship.

Mr. Peacock—He cannot; ho has no certificate
of competency.
Mr. Paget was afraid he could not keep the ap-
plicant, whose only remedy was to summon the man
to the County Court.
Mr. Peacock hoped that publicity would be given
to the scandalous frauds committed by Mr. Barton
on himself and other tradesmen.

Mr. Paget don't keep an advertisement office,
the press will most likely assist you. A chorus of
indignant tradesmen said they would summon Mr.
Barton to the County Coart as early as possible.

MARLB ORO U G TRE ET.
OUTRAGEOUS ASSAULT. MERITORIOUS CON-
DUCT OF A CONSTABLE.--John Parker, alias Scott,
and Wm. Butcher, alias Leadbetter, two ruffianly-
looking fellows, described as costermongers, were
charged, before Mr. Knox, with being drunk and
wilfully breaking a pane of glass of the value of
£l, at the Hereford Arms, Park-street, Grosvenor-
square, and also with assaulting Mr. Henry Carter,
the landlord, and Police-constable Squires, 66 C.
Mr. Carter said that about half-past five o'clock
yesterday afternoon the prisoners came into his
house, and were served with a quartern of gin.
They stayed for about a quarter of an hour,
during which they made use of very bad language,
and then left. Seeing them returning up the street
he closed his door to prevent them coming into his
house again, When the prisoner Butcher put his foot
through a pane of glass of the value of £l. He
went outside to take hold of Butcher, when
Parker, taking off his coat at the same
time, said, ti kill you if you don't let
him go," and then gave him (Mr. Carter) a violent
blow in the eyes, blackening them both. Assistance
arrived, and the prisoners were given into custody.
Henry Hill, of No. 5, St. George's-road, Shep-
herd's-bush, proved seeing Butcher break the pane
of glass in Mr. Carter's window. He dragged
Butcher into the house to save him till a constable
came, and saw Parker assault Mr. Carter in a shame-
ful manner, Mr. Carter being lame from rheu-
matism.

Police-constable Charles Squires,
166 C, said that
on going to the Hereford Arms, he found the land-
lord, Mr. Carter, lying on the floor and the prisoner
Parker striking him, and the last witness was hold-
ing Butcher. He took hold of the prisoners and
got them out of the house, and as he was going
along Park-street with both in his custody Butcher
kicked him on the knee, causing him to fall to the
ground, but he stuck to the Prisoners, and they fell
with him. On getting up again he handed Butcher
over to the last witness, and took Parker, who
tried to kick him in a delicate part, saying
that he would ruin him for life ; but through
his seizing Parker's leg the kick did not
take the effect intended. Parker also threat-
ened that if he ever got free he would seriously
injure him. [The constable, who is a young man,
limped in his walk.]

Air. Knox said he thought for a youngster like
the constable it required no ordinary amount of
courage to secure such fellows as the prisoners. But
the constable had done more than that, for, without
drawing his truncheon, he had succeeded in bringing
the prisoners before him. The constable had acted
very properly, and he hoped his conduct would be
reported to the proper quarter.
Barnes, the gaoler, said the boots the prisoner
were wearing had holes an inch and a half thick
heavily studded with nails.
W. James, 71. C, proved assisting in taking the
prisoners a part of the way, and hearing the threats
made use of by Parker.
Mr. Knox said he should remand the prisoners,
and take time to consider whether he should not
send them to the sessions. The constable was then
limping, and he (Mr. Knox) did not know but
that he 'night be injured for life.
