BOW-. T.REET.

A fortnight ago a very respectably-dressed boy of
the name of George Hurslaton, was charged at this
office with attempting to pick pockets at the Adelaide
Gallery, and the case was then reported in The Sun.
On his person was found the sum of 4/. 125., and Mr.
Twyford, thinking this a suspicious circumstance,
said he should remand him for further evidence. The
boy then said he could, if he was allowed time, satis-
factorily account for the possession of the money. He
was accordingly remanded to this day, and Mr. Hum-
phries appeared this morning in his behalf. He pro
duced a bank book of the Kingston Savings' Bank, i
from which it appeared that the boy. had the day he
was charged received the sum found upon him.
Mr. TWYFORD said that from the very respectable.
appearance of the boy, he had been reluctant to re-
mand him, but the circumstance of the large amount
of money being found upon him, it rendered a re-
mand imperative. He was happy, however, to say
that the money was not only satisfactorily accounted
for, but creditably.
The boy was then discharged, and left the Court
with his friends. He has not Leen in custody durine,
the time he was remanded for, but was admitted to bail.
Thomas Holloway, a letter-carrier, who had been
remanded on a charge of stealing a nuinber of letters
entrusted to his care, underwent another examina-
tion, and was fully committed for trial.
UNION-HALL.

Georgv TVingfie/d, with scarcely any clothes on him,
owing to the resistance he made to the police when
taken into custody for brutally ill-using his wife, and
threatening to cut her throat, was brought up on the
charge.
The wife, a delicate and genteel looking woman,
stated that she married the prisoner five years ago,
she having at the time considerable property. They
however, had not been long together, when he com-
menced treating her in a most shameful manner, beat-
ing her and knocking her about, and he was in the
habit of snatching up razors, and threatening to cut her
throat. She added that she was confident he would
murder her, as he had sworn that he would serve her
as Je;sup served his wife last week at Bermondsey.
This was the fifth time she was compelled to give him
into custody, and he had been previously held to bail.
Mr. TRAILL said, that the defendant had been
brought before him on former occasions for similar
conduct, and that if he was not restrained, it was very
probable that he would carry his threats against his
wife into effect.
The defendant was held to bail in two sureties of
401. each, and himself in 100/. to keep the peace.

noon between three and four in King's-road, and as
they appeared anxious to avoid him he suspected there
was something wrong, arid took them into custody.

said they bought at a shop, mentioning a respectable
baker's ; he took them there, but the parties denied
all knowledge of them; he therefore took them to the
station-house.
Mr. RAWLINSON asked if they were known as
thieves ; and being answered in the affirmative, sent
them each for one month to the House of Correction.
John Clenzents was charged by James Bland with
defrauding him of his fare.
Complainant stated that defendant was put into his
cab in Tottenham-court-road by a lot of friends. He
drove him to Chester-terrace; but as he could not,
or would not, give the number of his residence, he
drove him to the station-house.
The defendant expressed his sorrow, and stated that
he had lost his watch and a quantity of silver.
Mr. RAWLINSON let him otf by paying the cab-fare.

night with a friend of hers, and while coming home
and passing the cab-stand in Grosvenor-street, de-
fendant was called out of the rank by her friend, and

Her friend there got out, and instructing the defen-
dant to drive her back home to Chelsea, he left her;
defendant got: upon his box and drove her back, but
turned out of his road after crossing the bridge, and
got into the cab beside her, when he conducted him-
self in a most indecent manner, and she screamed
" Murder," when the cab was stopped, and she gave
prisoner into custody.

with complainant and her friend, and that he was
very tipsy, was, after a severe reprimand, fined 20s. or
