MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

Thomas Chaffcns, well-known to the prize-ring and
a frequenter of Ben Caunt's sporting-rooms, in St. Mar-
tin's-lane, was charged with committing an unprovoked
and violent assault on a private in the Scots Fusileer
Guards. The complainant was quietly standing in the
street when the defendant came up to him, and, without
saying a word, struck him with his clenched fist be
neath the left eye, cutting his cheek to the bone.
The defendant alleged that the complainant had in-
sulted his wife, but this was clearly disproved by wit-
nesses.

Mr. MALTBY said the assault was a most gross one,
and he should, therefore, impose a fine of 4/., or one
month's imprisonment with hard labour.
The defendant said he was unable to pay the fine, and
he was, accordingly, sent to gaol.
Frederick George Pemberton, a young min of very
fashionable appearance, described on the charge-sheet as
of " No. 31, St. James's-street, gentleman." was brought
up, on a Judge's warrant, on in indictment found against
him " for unlawfully and ingeniously keeping c,rta!n
common ganuing-roomq, gaming-booths, and mart; to-e,it
CA. ie.4rish of St. Ann"s, in the liberty of at. Albans, in
the Comity of Peel' r„ "

Mr. MALTBY directed that the prisoner should be im-
mediately taken h,fore one of the .Tudes at chnnibers.

The off-nee for which the prisoner stands indicted was
COMmittcd at the last Gorharebury races. Indictments Of
a similar nature against several other well-knowß sport-
ing characters have also heen found.

Frederich Spicer, gr,,otn. in the of Li ird p I un-
tingtower, was charged with stealit:g a suit of livery, the
property ~f his Lordship.
Pron, Lord iitinti•lgtower's statement it appeared the
prisoner lifal been in his service M::y. On rm,,n,1,,,
he absented himself, and inquiries being made, the pri-
soner was found in a public house intoxicated, and when
he subsequently became sober he refused to deliver up
the livery. His Lordship therefore gave him into custody.
The prisoner saiil that tie !!iont_rbt h Lad a rip•ht to
the livery, as hi master hal to boy him
tvhen.they ca:Le
not keep.
Lord ihntingtower said that he had no wish to press

the charge of :'elony, and wily wanted the restoration of
his clothes.
After some difficulty the prisoner at length cons
to return the livery, and he was discharged.
