I.ISI.ON,HALL.

Three men, named lama CoUlm, Thome Coniiu, and Wits. Got.
lug, were charged with having created a riot and disturbance at
Camberwell. It appeared that the inhabitams of Peckham had
lodged information at the Office, that a pitch:d battle was about to
take place id Peckham Rye • some Linters were dispatched thither,
but the scene having been changed to Camberwell, thither they
followed the combatants. The light, which was between a brick-
maker and a navigator, for ZtO a-side, was over Lefore they. ar-
rived, and there had 514 c Urea another battle between two men fot
,Cg. Oa the arrival of the officers they were iasulted by the rabble,
but the three defendants were most conspicuous in the disturbance.
Tbothas Collins was much cut about the face, and was a party in
the last fight; he and the other prisoners Nourished their sticks,
abasvd the officers, and threatened any one with a broken head who
interfered with their amusements. The defendants were ordered
to find bail.
- TIIAMES POLICE.

Daniel ..flullaistt was charged with the following outrageous as-
bank and robbery. The prosecutor, Mr. Randall, a lighterman,
was on his return home on Wednesday evening, and when passing
through Back-lane, Sr. George's, a woman satiated the hat off his
head; he followed her up the alley, when she opened the dime era
house, and on pursuing her into the room, he was surroundadby
several women of the same stamp, and among them was s des-
perate looking fellow. They got him down, and having beaten him
in a very brnial manner, they robbed him of some gold and silver,
which he had received at a Bank a short time previous, and also
stole a bundle which he carried under his arm. The prisoner Hol-
land was the most active in the outrage, and after the prosecutor's
departure, he was seen by other persons in the court, carefully
placing those things which they had robbed the prosecutor of, out
of view. Holland, who has recently returned from transportation,
said nothing in his defence, and was remanded.
WORSHIP-STREET.

A shoemaker, named Harding, was charged with hawking 'hoes
at different buses in Hackney. The poor man acknywiedgedthe
charge, but said he understood be was allowed to hawk his own
manufactures; that he had served seven years to the trade; that be
had a wife and six children to maintain, and having some connexion
at Hackney, he bad adopted that plan of supporting Pis family.
Tie Alagistrate however, said, the Act only allowed. Mm so to do
in Alarket or drporate Towns, or, at Fain, spd as Heokney did
nut come under either of these denominitions, be must pay a fine of
£lO, or Mfrs -three months' imprisonment. Thu poor &Dui, consi-
dering that so be detained so long from his family would be attended
with certain ruin, chose rather that a distaxes-watrant should lone
which was issued accordingly.

Daritartox or A Put.owantr.—Tbrougb an avenue
of trees, at the back of Trinity College, a Church may
be seen at a considerable distance, the approach to
which affords a* very pleasing scenery. The late Pro-
fessor Poasow, on a time, walking that way with a
friend, and observing the Church, remarked, That it
put him in Mind • of. a felosuship, which was a king
dreary walk, with a Church at the end Olt:

besides, his long let* head was particularlydisringuish:
al:le for a bump, or protuberance, thatSpurzHeins would
at once have declared r. 3 itive of philo-progenitiv,
!west At all events, Timothy Mooney suspected
'of some such propensity, for " what else," said Moonc
" could bring I.iin a screeching, a rattling, and tan(
int.!, at my little sister's do •r, between twelve acd
this ble,sed morning ?" This was a question which
very easy for Tim Mooney to ask, hut very difficult
Jem Fitzpatrick to answer. Jem said ha 'knew
was the night before at the Brook; he knew he
swallowed several glasses, and innumtraSle pints, :het
he !view be had.nt the curse of tie Feir consing

4, young and fair," and certainly an ehjest bf tem,
tion to a youth, " hot with the Tuscan grape, and
in blood," like Jem Fitzpatrick; she came forward
the bar, and delivered the following speech, in as '
and solemn a tone of voice as if the unfortuMie dear.
ant's life depended on every weed she uttered:
" Pleate your Warship, Mr. Fitzpatrick, my brat
Tim, and I, all lodges in the same lodging.hnuse-;-1
.may know the house will, it has over the door 4 goi
dry beds for single men.' Well, phase your Wort"
Mr. Fitzpatrick, yon may perceive, is the-mortal im
of a ghost, so much so, that I tremble -at the lig!'
him; and be puts 5... e in mind that he is a relation
the Banshee that follows the Mooney family. Well, "
night, above all nights in the year, I heirs a lead
at my door, and a screech for all the world,like
noise that the knife-grinder makes when he'a2Mendi
any scissors. Well, please your Worship, trp I sti
and says I, 4 Who the dickens—(the Lard pretaire
who the dickens (says I) is that?' Judy, (thaf's
name), Judy Mooney, Judy Mooney, Judy Mooney
(hree times, your Worship), says Mr. Fitapatr,ck,
I, your own Jem -Fitzpatrick, as colA as a store am
dry as a sponge, this b!essed night, that's- holdin;
confab with another ghost." Another /host, says
myself, oh. then, there's two of you, Mid I suppose,

I beg +n to screech and bawl, and Mr. Fitzpatrick to

The Magistrate said be should dismiss the complaint
but he earned Mr. Fitzpatrick ngainst the ghost,. whir"
had led him to the young woman's door; he assur
him it was a Wicked Spirit, which he should close
ears against, or it would otherwise lead him into
mischievous and unpleasant consequences to himiel

bowing out as ezrditiously uhe mild, the shut was the whisky
I drank, and 111 never mind such wicked spirits any more.'"
