DISGRACEFUL AND REVOLTING SCENE AT NEW-
INGTON-CAUSEWAY.—(From a Correspondent.)— About
five o'clock in the afternoon of Wednesday, a most dis-
graceul and unnatural fracas took place in this neigh-
bourhood, and caused some hundreds of persons to con-
gregate, to witness a fight between two individuals, who
from their outward appearance were supposed to be of
the female gender, but from the numerous falls in the
fight in which they were engaged, it was soon discovered
that one of the parties was a man in the disguise and
dress of a woman. The bystanders, one and all, urged
policeman 157 L, and 116 M, to take both the offenders
to the station-house, not only for the breach of the peace
they had committed (and to which both policemen were
eyewitnesses), as also a general obstruction caused by
the mob of people assembled, but still more on account
of a man in the disguise of a woman, clothed in a
gown, shawl, cap, and bonnet,
actually fighting with
a person who in reality was a woman. Although such
fact was established, and even winked at, and acknow•
ledged by the policemen, they still persisted in suffering
the disguised individual to escape, and most insultingly
taunted several gentlemen who urged their taking the
assumed individual into their keeping, to receive the pu-
nishment set forth by the law for appearing at large in
the dress of that sex to which he did not belong. we
have information, too undeniable to be questioned, and
are also in the possession of a gentleman's name and ad-
dress, who hesitates not in saying that a greater dere
liction of duty on the part of the two policemen he never
witnessed, and that the eye-sight and feelings of many
highly-respectable females in this locality were shocked
at the appearance of the supposed female when an ex-
posure of the person was beheld. An investigation into
this affair by the head of the constabulary force need
not, we should imagine, be urged, as it speaks loudly for
I immediate inquiry. —Advez User
