ANOTHIM CAllll.4■••Rkkard Pfallt, poulterer, NO.
36, Jerrnyn•street, came te answer a similar infor-
amnion, laid against him by the same person, for
loving game concealed in his house.—Gilmour, the
Officer, stated, that on the authority of a search-
Warrant he had searched defendant's house, and
,found therein only one brace of partridges, which
*ere produced in Court, but he said there were the
feathers and wings of several others, which seemed
in have been recently picked.—Defendant pleaded,
that though the partridges were in his house they
were not his property, but sent from Lord Gwydir's,
to be picked and trussed ready for the spit.—The
Magistrate stated, that if defendant would bring
forward any servant of Lord Gerydir, who would
confirm his evidence upon oath, he would discbarge
the intormation. .
Weatute-sTaiter.—Yesterday Wm. Dockery, As
old man, between 60 and 70 years of age, came be-
fore the Magistrate with a young woman a little

young man, near 20, for threateniag to take away
his life.—Complainant said, that helived at NO. 12,
Queen-street, Old-street-road, and was upon the
point of marriage with the young woman wbo ac-
companied him to the Office ; and she was in danger
as well-as himself, for his son had threatened, if ever
their union took place, te put-an end to both their
lives. A warrant was issued, and the young min

UNION HALL.—CONSINATION AND RIOlo,A'
eo-
rioui case of combination, riot, and assault, came on
to be investigated before the Magistrates at this Of-
fice, on Wednesday, when Benjamin Crouch, John
Maples, Pas. Harnett, Pat. Murphy, Wm. Hollis, and
Israel Chapman, well known Resurrection-men, were
charged by Mr. Williams and Mr. Sparren, Students
belonging to St. Thomas's Hospital, with assault and
riot. It appears that the spirit of combination which
has of late been so prevalent amongst journeymen
mechanics, has communicated itsdlf even to the
gentlemen of the honourable profession known by the
vulgar appellation of resurrection men, or body
SWAM. A majority of this worthy and enlightened
band, which is by no means numerous, have lately
beea to the Continent, on a visit to the famed field of
Waterloo, as is said, for the purpose of collecting
and importing into this country, a cargo of teeth. On
their return lately, a general meeting was held, at
which it was determined that in future no subject
should be furnished, either to lecturer or student, at
hospital or lecture room, for less than six guineas, the
price up to this time having been four. This resolu-
tion was communicated to the surgeons, who, consi-
dering the demand as an imposition, determined to
resist it, and having. fouad means to induce two of
the fraternity to secede from the, general body, they
were engaged to furnish subjects to a certain extent.
They succeeded, but the general body having re.
ceived information of an intended visit to the tombs,
planned by the two traitors, they gave information to
the Officers at the Town Hall, who, in consequence
of the information they thus received, surprised the
two offenders in the very act of opening a grave, and
took them into custody. This did not satisfy their
vengeance; for having obtained information that
some subjects had been taken to St. Thon saes Hos-
pital, the six defendants went there, forced their way
into the dissecting room, where Mr. Williams and
Mr. Sparrea were, and drawing their knives, began
to nourish them. Mr. Williams and Mr. Sparren.
alarmed, attempted to effect a retreat, but were pus..
sued and brought back, and obliged to continue in
the room whilst the defendants cut the three bodies
which were lying on the dissecting table into pieces.
Whilst they were thus employed, information having
by some means been sent to Glennon,he, with another
Officer, went and . secured all the defendants, and
took chess before the Magistrate. They made no
defence, but said they had been very ill treated by
the surgeons,, who could not do without them. They
were all ordered to find bail to answer the complaint
at the Sessions.
