MARYLEBONE.—(Tms DAY. el

James White, a meagre figure, with only one leg, was charged
with an assault by Charles Williams, his brother-in-law.
Mr. Williams stated, that the prisoner, who lodged in his
house, came in intoxicated, at ten .o'clock, yesterday night, and
requested the complainant to make up his account, as he wished
to leave his house. Witness considering his situation, wished
him to wait till the morning, but the prisoner insisted on an im-
mediate settlement, and behaved so boisterously that a number of
people] were atracted to the door, and a row was created. He
then struck witness iu the forehead, who gave him in charge.

The watchman deposed that he went to the complainant's house
and saw the prisoner strike him on the face, he then took him in
charge.
The prisoner admitted that he wished to settle accounts with
the complainant, but said that when he came home last night, the
complainant would not allow him to go to his own room, nor
even to see his wife.

His wife (an interesting-looking body) then came forward and
said that she was ready to swear her life against her husband, ac-
cused him of attempting to smother her, and treating her with
all the cruelty possible, both in word and deed. In particular,
she deposed that about three weeks ago, before they had come to
lodge with Mr. Williams, she went out to visit Mrs. Williams,
with whom she had some gin and water, and upon her return, her
husband called her all the bad names possible, and when they
went to bed pinched her and otherwise treated her very unkindly.
She, however, forgave him then, but last night she was saluted
with another torrent of abuse, in consequence of which she consi-
ders herself in, danger. They (the prisoner and witness) have
been only two Mouths married.
The prisoner in defence, stated that on the first Occasion he was
quite tipsy, and made use of improper words, but denied having
abused her last night.
Mr. Itawmwson advised all parties to endeavour to agree in
future, as they were so nearly connected, but in the mean time
ordered the prisoner to find bail.

NEW LONDON BRlDGE.—Yesterday a meeting of
the Bridge House Committee took place at Guildhall.
The members were extremely shy of communicating to
those who were not privileged to attend, whether they
assembled for the purpose of discussing good or bad
intelligence. The report Outside, however, was, that
some blunder had been committed already in the erec-
tion, and that the additional expense likely to be in-
curred• in consequence, will amount to several thou-
sands. Every thing was discussed in the committee,
it would appear, upon the understanding that ilot
word was to be uttered out of it, at least of an un-
favourable tendency, and even those gentlemen of
the Corporation who were not entitled to sit in
the committee, found it as difficult as strangers to
collect the substance of what occurred. We have it
from good authority, however, that complaints have
been made, and that they were yesterday under inves-
tigation. Mr. Rennie and Sir 'Edward Banks were in
attendance. The former had, we were told, come up
300 miles to London on account of what has latterly
transpired respecting the bridge.

Yesterday a large number of shares in new formed
Companies were sold at the Mart, and if any thing
were wanting to prove the nature and condition of
some of those concerns, the result below would be con-
clusive. In not one instance did the purchase money
