BOW-STREET.-(THIS DAY.)

CHARTIST DISTURBANCES AT PADDINGTON.—WM.
GreeVialh, carpenter, was charged with throwing
stones at, and otherwise obstructing the police in the
execution of their duty.

Policeman T, 72, 'stated, that in consequence of
orders he had received from inspector Black, he, in
company .with others, about six o'cicck last evening,
proceeded to clear away arr ob of' persons from a
field near the terminus of the Great •NV astern Railway
at Paddington, who had assembled for the purpose of
holding a Chartist meeting. Some stones and dirt
were
,thrown at the policemen, and a gentleman told
witness that they came from a certain direction be-
hind an embankment of fresh earth which had been
lately thrown up. Witness proceeded to the spot,
and saw the prisoner, and five others, engaged in
throwing stones and earth. Was quite positive the
prisoner was one of the men. Saw him throw a
stone.

The prisoner told a very straightforward story.
He had been at work all last week at Mr. Pousford's,
of Paddington, and was going there to fetch his
tools; seeing a mob of persons he went round by the
embankment to avoid it. He positively denied hav
thrown a stone, or ever having attended a Chartist
meeting in his life. The policeman must have been
mistaken.

. Thomas Beardon, a respectable carpenter an d a
housekeeper, who until called on had been out of
Court, confirmed the prisoner's statement in every
particular.
Two other witnesses came forward and gave the
prisoner an excellent character for quietness, honesty,
and sobriety.
The policeman still persisting in his assertion,
Mr. JARDINE remanded the prisoner till to-morrow.
Bail was accepted for his appearance.
William Gardner \vas then placed at the bar.
. _ _

Inspector Black said that he had just sent away a
man who was lectUring the mob, when he felt a blow
on his shoulder ; a constable took the man into cus-
tody. That man was the priEener. . The blow was
not violent.

D 83, saw the prisoner strike the inspector.
Three weeks' imprisonment.
Several other persons were sentenced to various
terms of imprisonment, for obstructing the police.

QUEEN SQUARE.—(THIS DAY.)
James Warren, a little ragged fellow, was brought
up by Restock, one of the officers of the Mendicity
Society, charged with begging in the streets, and
annoying the passengers.
The boy stated that his mother is dead, that his
fathcr is employed in a gas work, and earning 255. a
week, hut taking a woman into the house to live
with him, he and his sister were turned out to beg.
He went to the workhouse, but they would not ad-
mit him.

Mr. BURRELL ordered one 'of the officers to take
him again to the workhouse, when he was admitted,
and measures are being taken to compel the father to
support him.
Lucy Yardley, a married woman, residing in
White Lion-street, Chelsea, charged, hf r landlord
with an assault. She, it appeared, had gone into her
room, and barred the door, when he burst it open,
and commenced throwing her furniture about; on her
attempting to save her 'things, he caught her
by the neck, and after striking her several severe
blows on the head and side, he threw her down stairs.
She stated that she was severely injured.
A witness proved having seen the assault com-
mitted.

The landlord, on being called upon for his defence,
said th it on his demanding three weeks rent due,
and thzeatening, in the event of her not paying,- to
padlock her door, she Ecratched his face, and, in self-
defence, he had thrust her out of the house. He could
bring forward no witness, and
The MAGISTRATE fined him 405., or one month's
imprisonment.

UNION HALL.—(THIS DAY.).
Every avenue leading to Union-hall Police Court
was crowded by a mob of men, women, and boys, as;
early as eight o'clock this morning, waiting in full
expectation for the arrival of the prisoners taken into
custody last night on Kennington-common, for Ob-
structing the police in their duty, and creating dis-
turbances.
They were doomed to be disappointed, as all the
charges will be investigated before the Magistrates at,
Bow-street. Finding that their friends who were i.ll
custody did not make their appearance, they vented.,
their spleen on the police, by hissing and shouting at
every one that passed. Several men were taken unto
custody, and held to bail for their future conduct.

disapprobation against the police fin-themanner in
they acted on the occasion, and many threats, th't„;ce,
but deep," are uttered of retaliation and venge„..
Several weetings are appointed to be held this evehl,:ine
