COURT OF COMMON PLEAS, June 24.
(Before Mr. Justice CRESWELL.)
MAUGHLN V. EADE AND OTHERS.
This was the only case which came before the Court this
morning. It possessed no interest except to the parties im-
mediately concerned, being a dispute with regard to the
making and repairing of a private road.

POLICE' INTELLIGENCE.
(YESTERDAY.)
WORSHIP-STREET.
Frederick Martin, an itinerant vendor of ginger beer,
was brought before Mr. Broughton, charged with having
obstructed the public thoroughfare in Old -street, St.
Luke's, at seven o'clock on the previous morning.
Police-constable Jenkinson, G 53, stated that he was
on duty in Old-street at the time mentioned, when he
saw the prisoner standing with a truck containing ginger-
beer at the edge of the carriage-way. On being desired
to move away the prisoner immediately shifted the truck
to the other side of the street, but refused to go any fur-
ther, and according to directions he had received, witness
took possession of the truck, and conveyed the prisoner
to the station-house.
Mr. BROUGHTON asked the policeman by what au-
thority he took the man into custody under such circum-
stances?
The policeman said that he had received orders from
his sergeant in the event of such persons refusing to go
away when so directed, that he was to convey their com-
modities to the green-yard and themselves to the station-
house.
Mr. BROUGHTON said that if such orders had really
been issued they ought unquestionably to have been
communicated to the Magistrates. As far as his expe-
rience went, such articles were openly sold under the
very eye of the police in all parts of the town, and it was
but right that they should be so cheap as to bring them
within the limited means of the poor, who would other-
wise be altogether precluded from such indulgencies.
Inspector Jarvis said that he himself was not aware
of any such order as the policeman had alluded to,
although it, of course, was part of the duties of the police
to prevent those obstructions that gave rise to public
complaint or inconvenience.
Mr. BROUGHTON observed that it'was impossible that
the slightest obstruction could have been occasioned in
the present instance, as the road in question was suffi-
ciently wide for six carriages to stand abreast, and there
could scarcely have been any traffic going on at that
early hour in the morning. He knew of no law that
would authorise the punishment of the defendant under
such circumstances, and he should therefore discharge
him. The prisoner was accordingly discharged.

John Lee who has been repeatedly convicted at this
and other Courts was charged with assaulting his own
child, an infant four months old, so as to endanger its life.
The prisoner when placed at the bar put his arms
a-kimbo, and with a sneer looked contemptuously at the
bench.
Mr. GREENWOOD—How many times have you been
here? Prisoner (laughing.)—Can't say.
Mr. GREENWOOD—How many times have you been
convicted at the Old Bailey? Prisoner—Exactly three.
Police-constable 275 N heard screams of " murder "
proceed from the prisoner's dwelling, Greenman's-lane,
No. 10, and on reaching it was informed that he had
murdered his child. It turned out that, whilst beating
his wife, who had the infant in her arms, he struck the
latter a violent blow on the head, and to all appearances
the child was dead. Medical aid was obtained The
doctor said the injury was of a dangerous character, and
the infant had been thrown into a fit by the blow.
Mary Lee, the prisoner's wife confirmed the above
statement. She held the poor little babe in arms. In
answer to questions from the Magistrate, she stated
that the prisoner had been courting her for twenty-
seven months previous to their marriage, twenty-three
of which he had been in prison.
Mr. GREENWOOD (to the prisoner)—What punish-
ment were you sentenced to at the Old Bailey ? Pri-
soner—One three and two sixes (months).—(Latighter.)
He was remanded for a fortnight.
A young man of delicate and melancholy look, named
James Davis, was charged with attempting to commit
suicide.
It appeared from the evidence, that the prisoner, who
is an artisan, living in Greenhill's-rents, Clerkenwell,
has been married lately to a female to whom he was
greatly attached. On the:loth inst. he became jealous,
and the green-eyed monster so completely possessed
him that he drank a large quantity of laudanum in order
to terminate his existence. He was taken to the North
London Hospital by police-constable 92 E, who found
him in Chichaster-place, soon after he had taken the
poison, writhing with pain. He has been since then
lying in the hospital.
The prisoner said he was very sorry for what he had
done, and that he believed his jealousy was unfounded.
Mr. GREENWOOD said the offence had become so com-
mon that the judges had come to a determination to
punish with rigour all such rash offenders. The magis-
trate sent the foolish fellow home to his wife, who, it
appeared, had been almost as ill from fright as he had
been from poison.
Four agricultural labourers, named Beadle, Marshall,
Mayor, and Gibson, were charged with begging. They
were ragged, half-starved-looking, poor creatures.
Bostock,-, a Mendicity constable, saw them, with six
others of the same class, begging in Woburn-square on
that morning • he offered them employment at the Men-
dicity, but they declined. At a later period of the day
he saw the whole ten walk abreast down Liquorpond-
street, singing " The Farmer's Boy," with a voice of
dolorous pitch—he took them into custody. Gibson had
no money ; Mayor, lid. ; Marshall, 10d., but Beadle
had 128. lid. npon him.
The prisoners declared they could find no employ-
ment in their native places, and had resorted to begging
to save themselves from starving. They were dis
charged, with a caution.
Timothy Reddy was charged with assaulting police-consta.

The policeman had a prisoner in custody, and was going
up Compton-passage, when the prisoner attacked him ; he
kicked the constable very severely on the shins, without:hav-
ing received any provocation whatever.—Fined ss.
A ruffianly-looking fellow, a carpenter by trade, was
charged with assaulting Sarah Wilcox.
It appeared from the evidence, that the complainant is a
married woman living apart from her husband—and the
prisoner has been for long time living idly on her hard earn-
ings. On Saturday night, he came home drunk ; and upon
some trivial provocation, beat the poor woman so severely,
that her face was much contused and swollen. Tho woman
complained bitterly of the general brutality of the prisoner's
conduct.
The prisoner was fined 2/. or 21 days' imprisonment.
QUEEN-SQUARE.
Adam Cook, a young man, was placed before Mr. Bond,
charged with having violently assaulted Ann Clements, a
young married woman, and also with having robbed her of a
purse, containing four shillings.
Mrs. Clements stated that whilst she was standing opposite
to the Castle public-house, in Little Chapel •street, Westmin-
ster, a mob of persons came out and conducted themselves in
the most violent manner, some fighting, and others assault-
ing persons who were passing in that direction. The pri-
soner, who was one of the party, struck complainant's
brother, who was standing by, and when she attempted to
release him from the prisoner's hold, he (the prisoner) gave
her a violent blow, and knocked her down ; and whilst
in that position she was severely kicked by him
She then felt the prisoner put his hand into her pocket, and
when.she got away she found herself minus the purse.
Mrs. Johnson, who witnessed the assault, corroborated the
above. She stated that, after seeing the assault, she fol-
lowed the prisoner, and gave him into custody; and on doing
so she was herself severely struck by him.
Mr. BOND inquired how it was the complainant was
abroad at that hour at night ?
Complainant stated that she was an artificial flower
maker, and that she was waiting for her brother who was
then trying to dispose of a few of those articles.
The prisoner's father, an old man, here stepped forward, and
wished to show that his son had to work very hard for his
living; he was never a thief, nor had he ever committed an
assault.

Mr. BOND said his working hard had nothing to do with
the case. If he spent his money in a public-house that would
be of little service to him ; but he should give the prisoner an
opportunity of bringing forward witnesses for his defence, by
remanding him till to-morrow.
The primer was then remanded. No money was found
in his possession.

jury to say how far they were satisfied on that point. He
would not allude to the award of the Commissioners, because
if their award was a final bar to the Baron's claim, that bar
ought to have been pleaded by the Crown ; but, not
having been so pleaded, the Baron de Bode was
not called upon to enter into any discussion on that
point. The first question the jury would have to decide was,
whether the Baron Charles made a valid renunciation to his
son in 1791. The second question was, whether the pro-
perty in question, being the property of the claimant, was
illegally and unduly confiscated. With regard to the value
of the property it did not appear that there was any question.
A juryman—What is the total amount of the claim, my
Lord.
Lord DENMAN—The amount given by the former inquisi-
tion is 364,2661., and if you are of opinion that the claim
is made out, they claim something additional for interest.
The SOLICITOR-GENERAL submitted that there was no
evidence to go to the jury on the allegation in the petition,
that the sum paid by France was augmented for the purpose
of liquidating the Baron's claim.
Mr. HILL contended that there was evidence to that point.
Lord DENMAN could only understand by that allegation
that the name of Baron de Bode, as claiming for the pro-
perty of Soultz, was expressly brought under the notice of
the French Government, and some express agreement come
to on the subject. That certainly did not appear by the
evidence. There were also two other points which they
would find for the Crown, viz., that the claim did not accrue
within six years, nor during te reign of her present Majesty ;
so that, in fact, the only question they would really have to
determine was, whether or not, at the time of the confisca-
tion, the property of Soultz was the property of the late Baron
Charles de Bode, orof the present claimant Baron Clement de
Bode.
