QUERN-SQUA RE.

Caroline Newton, a very pretty damsel, with a pair of beautiful
black eyes, that might have moved even an anchoret, was charged
with a most violent and outrageous assault on the person of Caroline
Miller, and several others.
Several complainant 4 were In attendance with broken heads,
black eyes, and violent bruises on different parts of their persons,
that the office app.aared more like an hospital than a justice-room.
Compl iill2l/i stated, that the defendant rushed into her house,
and split her bead with a rolling pin ; she also assaulted ht r niuther,
who was in bed ; in fact, every one that came in her way suffered
severely.
The defendant said, that her husband absconded from her about
a week ago, leaving her with three children ; she di.covered be was
cohabiting with the complainant, when she went to the house, and
found them together, which so exasperated her, that she ct:t.itliy
did assault her.—Committed for want of baiL

A dashing Cyprian, residing in Wilton-street, Gropver.or Place,
accianpanied by a spruce sprig of fashion, appeared to i,refer the
following curious complaint against a wet•nursc.

The complainant stated that the had hired the young woman
to wet•nurse her infant ; that she was permitted to see her Les-
band once a week; notwithstanding this, a few days a fttr the
interview, her husband was found. at twelve at raja, co:Traled
under her bed, when thinking be had come to rob the t.use, sue
gave hint in charge to the watchman.
Wet-nurse to the Magistrate—May I be allowed to explain, Sir ?
Mr. Gap:walla—Certainly.

Wet-nurse—l was recommended to the complainant a sun,
geon, who informed me that she was a respectable married woman.
but I soon found out that I had been inveigled into a house of ill'.
fame, and that my mistress was a kept woman. She was in the'
habit of admitting Gentlemen into her house; and on one occasion
some of them entered my bed-roonibefore I was ball dressed, and
commenced a most indelicate attack on me, which I repelle'd
indignation, while the complainant stood by smiling zt then)! I
mentioned the circumstance to my husband, who, not thinking it
safe for me to remain another night under the roof without his
,protection, tame in by stealth, and concealed himself under my bed,
where he was discovered by the complainant.
A Gentleman said, the house was one of the most infamous de.
scription; he resided in the same street, and was an eye-witness to
the iniquitous proceedings carried on there ; in fact, the know was
literally besieged, not only by Officers in the Army, anxt3us to dis-
tinguish themselves by" deeds in arms," but Lords and Dukes also
bowed down at the shrine of beauty. Among the fornwr he named
a 'Nobleman, now in Paris, with a host of others who frequented
the house, and the neighbourhood was continually annoyed so that
whether the complainant's " Babe of Grace" was his Grace( of
somebody's babe or not, be could not determine; but certain he
was that the house ought to be indicted for a nuisai:ce.
The defendants were discharged.
