parish of Chacemb, there being no less than six persens

William Wilson, the driver of a Merton omnibus, was
charged before Mr. Cottingham, at Union-hall Police-court,
with committing an assault of an aggravated nature on Min
Hannah Murrell, residing at No. 30, Mornington-crescent,
Hampstead-road. The complainant entered the wrong ve-
hicle, and the defendant would not allow her to leave it with-
out payment. She attempted to leave, and the assault was
then committed. Mr. Cottingham inflicted a fine on Wil-
son, the driver, of 31. and costs for the assault on Miss Mur-
rell, and adjudged Steel, the conductor, to enter into his re-
cognisance in 100/., and find two sureties of 50/.,'each to ap-
pear at the next .sessions of the Central Criminal Court, in.
order to give the complainant an opportunity of indicting
him for perjury in giving his evidence, a step whit4ll he
strongly advised her to adopt.
At the same Court, Henry Shepherd, the driver of a Car-
shalton omnibus, was charged with furiously driving and
endangering the lives of the passengers. Mr. Cottinghain,
instead of inflicting a fine, which would be easily paid, said
he' hould commit the defendant for a Month to hard labour.

hended at North Shields, was charged at Lambeth-street
with uttering two forged a;,-,ceitances, purporting to be thos4

451., and also defrauding several tradesmen to a very consi-
derable amount. ' Several cases were gone into, and the pri-
soner was "remanded to a future day, when it is expected that
several new charges will be brought against him, his trans-
actions being enormously extensive.
