the Magistrate ordered her to find bail.
A simple-looking ceuntry girl, who refused to give
her name or her residence, except that she was a native
of Wiltshire, was charged with having attempted to
commit suicide in the Regent's Canal.
Policeman 271 S, said between one and two o'clock
this morning, he saw the female standing on the towing-
path of the canal close to the water's-edge. He hastened
to the spot, and was fortunate enough to catch hold of
her before she could carry her awful intention into effect.
She said she had neither a home nor friends, and was
tired of life.
Mr. RAWLINSON asked her if she had any reason for
attempting to commit suicide.
The girl said she could give no reason nor would she
divulge her name in state to whom the magistrate could
apply respecting her.
Mr. RAwLINSON sent her to St. Pancras workhouse
until inquiries are made respecting her.

UNION -II ALL.--(THIS D AY .)
Thomas Pledge was charged with wilfully breaking
thirty cucumber glasses in a market-garden, at Ber-
mondsey.
Charles Shepherd stated that he is the owner of a
market-garden at Bermondsey, in which he rears cucum-
bers. On the preceding afternoon, while watching on
his grounds, he saw the prisoner flinging stones into the
garden, and he did not desist until he had smashed
thirty or forty of the cucumber-glasses. After a smart
pursuit he was taken into custody.
The prisoner was fined fifty shillings, the value of the
glass he had broken, besides ten shillings costs, and in
default of payment he was committed for one month.
James Cannon, foreman to a wharfinger, was charged
with assaulting and breaking the organ of Antonio Ma-
zeppa, a Piedinontese.
It appeared that Antonio was " grinding" his organ in
the street, when the defendant came up and desired him
to go to his own country, and not to be annoying the
passengers. Antonio, however, paid no regard to what
was said, but still continued playing on the organ, when
the defendant wilfully ran up against him, struck him in
the eye, and broke his instrument.
Mr. MAIM condemned the conduct of the defendant
towards a poor foreigner, and inflicted a fine of 10s. on
him for the assault, besides making him pay for the
damage, amounting to 235., and in default he was
locked up.

CLERKENWELL.—(THIS DAY.)
Richard Pell, a smart-looking young man, was charged
with embezzling various sums of money, the property of
his master.
Mr. William S. Gibson, the prosecutor, a baker, re-
siding in Bloomsbury, deposed that on Tuesday last, he
learned that one of his customers had paid the prisoner
1/. 6s. Bd., and on the same day facts came to his know-
ledge which induced him to believe that the prisoner
had been for along time engaged in an extensive system
of embezzlement.
Mr.-COMBE announced his determination to commit
the prisoner for trial, but remanded him that the other
cases might be perfected against him.
Catherine Leary was charged with creating a disturb-
ance at the Holborn Union workhouse, and assaulting
violently Barber, one of its officers.
Mundy, the porter, deposed that on the previous night
the prisoner went to the workhouse between eleven and
twelve o'clock, and was admitted into the destitute ward,
with her two children. She had not been more than five
minutes in the ward, when she ran screaming to the
porter's lodge, and swore she would not stay in the ward.
An immense crowd collected on the outside, and be-
came exceedingly incensed, supposing that some cruelty
was being practised on the woman ; and Barber,
the porter, went to the iron gate', and was inform-
ing them of the true cause of her screams, when she
herself suddenly rushed upon him from the lodge, and
pitched into him right and left. The anger of the mob
was now converted into laughter, and they cheered vehe-
mently this female pugilist. A party of police at length
came, and Mrs. Leary was conveyed to the station-house.
The MAGISTRATE told her she was a disgrace to her
sex, and in default of payment of fine, sentenced her to
a month's imprisonment in the House of Correction.

Wm. Evans, Esq., M.P., did not call upon his
tenantry for the rents due last Lady-day until Friday

whole of his tenantry in Derbyshire, Staffordshire, and
Shropshire.—Nottingham Review.
