POLICE INTELLIGENCE.

BOW-STREET.

Yesterday Mr. Willionsiith,theSezton of St. Clement's parish,
Strand, was brought before Mr. Mutanou., on the charge of as-
saulting a person named &swirl, a journeyman undertaker, in the
employmrat of Mr. Morley, of Duke-street, Lincoln's Inn Fields.
It appeared from the statement of the complainant, that on Sun-
day last Mr. Mosley had the conducting of the funeral of a son of
Taunton, the old and highly respectable officer of the Bow-Street
Establishment, and Berwick was assisting Mr. Morley in the per-
formance of this melancholy ceremony. When the coffin was de-
posited in the aisle, the undertaker and his assistants were about
to enter certain pews to await the reading of the usual solemn ser-
vice when Mr. Fitch, the defendant, wised Berwick by the collar,
and said be must MX go in there. Mr. Berwick remonstrated ; a
violent altercation took place, and finally Mr. Fitch threatened to
give the complainant in charge to a peace officer.
Mr. Fitch, in his defence, accused the complainant of being
tipsy, and of committing the first assault by seizing hint (Mr. F.)
by the skirts of his coat.
The Rev. Mr. Knight, the Curate of the Parish, who officiated
on the occasion, was examined, and declared that in his opinion
the complainant was tipsy, but admitted that great violence was
evinced on both sides, and said it was altogether a scene much to
be lamented.
Mr. Fitch then called a pew opener, who swore that Mr.
Berwick used blasphemous language in the church.
In opposition to this statement, Mr. Morley was called and said,
be heard no language of the kind imputed to Mr. Berwick nude
use of; "but," added Mr. Mosley, " I told them both that
I was ashamed of their conduct iu such a place and on such au
occasion."
Mr. Mutsuou—And so am I ; but an assault has been sworn
to, and I must call upon Mr. Fitch for ball, and let a Jury dispose
of theme at the Sessions.
Mr. Fitch immediately found bail, and left the Office.

Mr. Edward Edwards Owen, a Gentleman of some distinction
in the army, was yesterday brought up on a warrant by Goddard,
an officer of this establishment, charged with assaulting his brother.
Mr. Thomas Owen, both Gentlemen being individuals of distinc-
tion in the polite circles.
It appeared from the compla nant's statement, that himselt and
brother (the defendant) resided in the same domicile in Bond-street,
and had sat down to their dinner a few days since, when 31;
Edward Owen spit in his brother's fact, and immediately after-
wards threw a mug of beer in his face.
Mr. Commix inquired what the defendant had to say to the charge ?
The defendant replied that he had had an affair with a distin-
guished young Nobleman a short time since, and his brother on the
day of the assault complained of had irritated him much by ac-
cusing him of want of courage in refusing to go out with that in-
dividual.
Mr. Cower advised the parties to make it up if possible.—This
the complainant did not agree to, and the defendant pet in bail.
John Philips, a respectahlealoOking man, about thirty years of
age, was placed at the bar, charged with stealing a guitar, the pro-
perty of Mr. Rathmaker, a musical instrument maker, residing in

yesterday morning, and desired to look at some guitars • be picked
out one, and then requested the individual in the shop; to procure
him a glass of water, as he felt faint ; and ou returning with the
water it was discovered that be had run off with the instrument.
On being pursued, he ran back into the shop.
In defence, the prisoner said that a friend had passed by on
horseback, and he merely ran out to speak to him, forgetting that

diately committed him for trial.
