UNION HALL.-(THIS DAY.)
John Lord was charged with eommitting an aggravated as-
sault on John Featherstone, by attempting to " gouge " his
eye out.
The complainant said that the prisoner and he had some
words, when the latter said that the complainant had been ill
for seven months, and that he (prisoner) would put an end to
him. He then attempted to carry his threat into effect,
by striking him a heavy blow with a stick over the
the head, and afterwards trying to scoop out one of his eyes
with his fore-finger and thumb, a practice termed " gouging "
in America. The complainant added, that had not a police-
man come up he was confident the prisoner would either have
killed him, or maimed him for life.
The prisoner said that he was drunk, and had no recollection
of what took place. He was fined 51., and to find bail besides,
and in default was lacked up.

CLERKENWELL,-(THIS DAY.)
James Gill, was charged with a violent assault on the person
of Nary Ann Jones, a girl of the town. From the evidence
it appeared that the complainant was walking in the New-
road, last night, between eleven and twelve o'clock. when the
prisoner met her. She accosted him, upon which he knocked
her down, and without further provocation, commenced beating
her, which he continued until he broke the stick on her
shoulders. The shoulders and arms of the unfortunate crea-
ture were covered with bruises.

Mr. COMM advised the prisoner to make the complainant a
handsome pecuniary compensation for the cruel treatment he
had given her, otherwise he would punish him severely.
The parties retired, but, soon after, the complainant an-
nounced that the prisoner refused to give her more than half-a-
crown, upon which he was fined 21., or one month's im-
prisonment.
