MARY-LA.BONNE.

Yesterday, sseph Elnan, a toll collector at the Orange Tree Gate,
New Read, was lined 10s. and costs fur abusive conduct towards a
Mr. Braithwaite.
Captain Dishy, R.N. of Beaumont-street, was charged with
assaulting Elizabeth Tutt, one of his servants, under an idea that
she had used his combs. The Captain denied the charge, bat was
ordered to And ►ail.

Several informations were brought by Johnson against pub-
licans, foe keeping their houses o during Divine Service time on
Sunday. Mr. Friend, of the Robinsonlt Creme, in F.arl.street,
Lissomgreve, was fined 1106 and costs, for supplying one of
Johnson's witnesses with brandy, and others with beer. One
information against Mr. Batt, of the Royal Oak, was quashed,
because in the information Johnson had described the house as
bearing the sign of the Marquis of Granby. Two against Mrs.
Jones, of the Albion, in Exeter-street, were withdrawn by John-
son, upon her paying the costs, because she only came into posses'
siou of the house one day before the date of the first, and was absent

at the funeral of her mother when the second egos of complaint
took place.
Mr. Stephens, & Peddlagoso sorveyor, was charged by Mr.Peetet.,
a builder, with having carried away a ladder, his property, and
exposed three of his workmen to the risk of their ling, upon the
t,./i of a building in Torrington Mews.
Mr- Porter iuformed Mr. flewunsow, and his men confirmed
his representation les their evidence, that on Monday afternoon he
sent them to repair the roof of the building before mentioned,
which the storm had injured. The ladder was raised against the,
side, and the men ascended by it, which they had but just accent-
plialted, when the defendant carried it away, under a pretence that
it was an offence against the Paddington Local Act to place it then
without a licence.
Mr. Rawussou expressed his surprise at the circumstance, and
desired Mr. Stephens to refer to the clause relating to it.
" It is in pages Se and 57, your Worship," said Mr. Stepheo, ." I i
will read it."—" No person or persons sisal; erect, place, set up, orl
build, in any street, square, or other public Pace, within the said
parish, at any time or times hereafter, any board or ,catoldiog. or
place or erect any posts, bars, rails, boards, or other thing, by way,
of enclosure, &c. without leave or bemire first had and obtained.
under the hand of the surveyor, for the time being, a the said
Vestry, who is requited to grant the same forthwith, on being paid
for such license the sum of as. Gd."
Mr. Rawusees—l hear about boaids, and scaffolding-posts, and
rails, but not a word about ladders.
Mr. Stephens—They are implied, year Worship, in the term,
4. other thing." The Gentlemen of the Vestry are of that opinion,
and, last Friday, they begged me to pay attention to it.
Mr. Rawunson—Then, if a house is on ire, before a ladder tan
be raised, to save the Inmates, some one mot dad out the parish
surveyor, and obtain a licence; or if a water-pipe bunts at the up
of a house. kit to be delayed, before a plumber cams go to repair it.
The Vestry may entertain what opinion they please. My opinion
is, that, in this instance, you have exceeded your duty, and that it
is a jack in office trick altogether.
Mr. Stephens—lt is a dangerous thing to have ladders standing
in the streets.
Mr. Raws.noost—Don't you think you made mere danger than
you cured. by leaving three poor fellows at the top of a hernagg,
without the proper means of descending ; you seek at and
swallow camel. I hope you will grant a licence to an
at half a crown a day, and I shall only add, that if I wee, Is Kr.
Porter's place, I would bring this case into a Court or Jodie*.
Mr. Porter declared be would do so, if it cost bins 100 guineas,
and the parties left the Oans.

ASSIZE INTELLIGENCE.

WINCHESTER, Sawicz 11.

The Judges came into Court today about one o'clock.,
Mr. Justice BURROUGH, in his charge to the Grist
Jury, condemned in very strong terms the late prhoo
fights, and urged the Magistrates to interfere, as abuts
had recently done in a duelling case, to put a stop W
such disgraceful occurrences. It was quite time that
the Magistrates shoirld put down these barbarous
ceedings, which had been a disgrace to the country.

TH2 LINO V. R. D. RICHARDS.
Mr. CARTIER shortly stated this case to the Jury. It
was a prosecution instituted by Charles Molloy West-
macott, a Gentleman connected with the Boasthamptox
Herald, against the defendant, also connected with the
press, for a malicious and defamatory libel, in the
form of a band-bill of large dimensions, offering a re-
ward for the apprehension of the prosecutor, and
giving a ludicrous description of him, amongst other
things, as being two feet three inches high, bandy
legged, one who had served in the capacity of a cad,
scene-shifter, reporter, spy, common informer, eves-
dropper, sweep, and deliverer of messages on the Liver-'
pool stage. Whoever would bring him to his disconso-
late father, C. Molloy, sweep, Drury-lane, should re-
ceive the above reward; and any information would
be thankfully received. A bill-sticker, employed by
the defendant, was detected in sticking up the sth bill;
the defendant had been proceeded against, and con-1
victed in penalties for publishing them without the
printer's name. The case for the prosecution being
made out, the Counsel for the defendant addressed the
Jury at some length, contending there was no =fee,
but i hat it was a mere r idiculous squib, written, per-'I
haps, not in the best taste, to ridicule a conflicting Edi-
tor. Verdict—Guilty.
P'e libel was published some time ago, when the
Jetendant was proecutad for printing a placard witl)-
out affixing a plater's name to it.
