POLICE IN,TELLMENCt

Maxistox-House.—The Justice Rvo'n was awn-%
crowded, in consequence of an examination whii:h s eera.:ity
calculated to excite curiosity.
Mr. John Helamere, a solicitor, who resides in rreelericlt's-
place, Old Jewry, appeared before the Loan Mayon. accent-
' panted by a Lady of great personal attraction, which wcr..,et
off by a very elegant dress, to prefer a charge of assault and hit-
tery against Mr. Wm. Jenkins, whom he al at charg.al with hes,
ing used threats with intention to provoke him to fig' • a duel.
Mr. Jenkins, who is a person of gentlemanly appearance, wis
attended by Mr. Am.ev, as his Cerinsel.
Mr. Dekmere stared that he had been followed in the streets
by the defendant, called a coward by him, and threatened to he
posted in all parts of the town ; r-ddhion to which ins:lneg
treatment, he bad to complain of the silence of the defends%
in another way. He (Mr. Delainere) after having applied to kis
Lordship on the previous day, on the sabjeat of the provocatiem
to fight, went to the house of the Lady who now acanmp.altied
him, and just as be was entering; the defendant approached, dr.
sired hint not to go in, and dragged him by the collar Cram the
passage to the street. This opposition did not, however, pr:vetti
hint from accomplishing his object of entering the house.
Mr. Jenkins admitted that he had endeavoured to preVer!
complainant front entering the Lady's isotiore. It sees indeed i
most painful duty to hint to state facts which would pet his
Lordship in possessirn of the real nature of the cue. He hit
for the Lady and her family, fir every member of which he lid
the highest respect and esteent. This Lady was t!-.: wiiF,..(rf a Nati4
Officer, who was now at sea, and by whom she had had sever.l
children, and who was his most intimate friend. The eninplain.
ant had gained access to the Latry's house in his professitreil
character, was now constantly there, and slept there three tints
a week, although he was a married man, and had a wife anti
four children, whom he left in dit!ress. He ' Mr. Jenkitt,i), ai
the friend of the husband and of the rest of the family, had en.
deavouted to bring the unfortunate Lady to a sense or her sitta-
tiOn, and to break off a connection which was most ignominions
to all to whom she was dear. While he was going to her house
with this view, he had surprised the complainant upon the paint
of entering it. Perhaps in endeavouring, to •prevect the crats.
plantain's visit, his indignation bad carried idea farther than wee
justifiable by law.
Mr. Awn, here desired that it should be understood, that the
complainant, who dept in the Lady's house, was s:,:te a stranger
to her husband.

Delatnere did not at all address himself to that part of the
retaliatory accusation which ;h::-ged him w•it!t tu. aimed
seduction, but said, in a low tour, tkat he was ready to :4:strer
for his conduct, whenever lie was lerilly caled upati to au,s•xi.t,
Mr. At.tiv (to the complairiant)--.lr, the only way for yea
to have answered was:, to have answered as a vutieman, and
that you should have dune without bringing the case here.
Mr. Delarnere said, he had lived long enough not to take le
ideas upon Mr. Alley's or any uthfer man's suggestion.
Mr. Hoatatz, when consulted by the Lone Morel epon the
subject, observed, that the way,for the brother of the
Lady (if the had a brother) to act in, would be to fling a inn,
under such circumstances as those tkie:ibed, out of the

The Lean PIAYOR agreed, that such rots the natural, and
would he the proper course, and it would be no matter of ter-
prise, if the lady's husband, on his return, were to shoot the
man who would wrong him, as it was said the complainant had
wronged him. His Lordship wished to know why the defend-
ant had taken up the case so warmly, and asked, whether that
was no father or brother to interfere ?
The defendant said that her father was dead, and not out
of those relations who could interfere most properly was is
town. Ile then offered to skew letter 9 to prove the intiniaey
between him and the Lady's husband, and declared, that he Ind
been most closely acquainted with the family fur many years.
Mr. ALLEY said, that as godfather to one of the Lady's chil-
dren, the defendant was authorized to endeavour to put a stop
to the evil, which might operate as an example.
The complainant produced letters friim the defendant to the
Lady, which be wished to be read as confirmatory of the chargh
of menace; but the latter admitted the fact, and begged that the
letters should not he read, front delicacy to the Lady.
Mr. Delamere sail, 'the defendant should be responsible far
any exposure that might take place..
fhe LORD MAYOR said the name should not escape him. lit
then read the letters, and said, that however immoral the coo.
nexion might be between the Lady and the corn I i poount, and
whatever hit (the Lord Mayor's) okinion might be of the tae,
the defendant could not be allowed to commit a breach of the
peace. Under all the circumstances of the caso Mr. Jenkinis
own recognizances Would be sufficient.
The defendant accordingly entered into recognizance' far NAL
to keep the peace.
The complainant then wished to havellr. Jenkins toned over
to 'keep the peace towards the Lady, but was told that the obliga-
tion towards one gersnn cetoprehended the obligation toreardsall.
Mr. Manning, a military officer, we understood, said he was a
friend of the Lady's husband, front whom the most knot:satinet
of this transaction might be expected, if the intercourse were pee
sisted in. Here the complainant suddenly took the Lady's an;
and precipitately left the Office with her.
