when Stubbs came forward from amongst them, saying. " Yon
d-4 old Charlie,if you do not move on, uric you as I did one
of your set in Monmouth-street, St. Giles's." Then suiting the
actitm to the word, be salted the complainant most grisly, pum-
melled him right and left, and then - getting him on the ground,'
kicked him most severely ; nor was it till a host of the blanket-
coated fraternity, summoned by the rattle of the succumhent
Lloyd, put the rioters to flight, that the complainant was able to
recover a perpendicular posture.
Stubbs being called on for his defence, denied the charge in leo,
saying that he was rendering his aid to the several watchmen col-
lected.—The statement of Lloyd, however, being confirmed by
Everitt, another of the watchmen, the defendant was held to ball.
Mien Powell was fully committed far stealing one cotton
handkerchief, value 25. from the shop of Mr. Christian, draper, in
the Strand.
N. less than nine persons were brought up, charged with being
found " lying dead drunk in the streets on Sunday morning,"

such a quantity of the "imperial" as to require two watchmen
and two of the patrol to convey him on a shutter to the watch.

The driller of a hackney coach appeared upon two summonses
issued at the suit of Sir J. Stevenson, the celebrated asusical com-
poser, for exacting more than his fare, and being drunk and abusive.
Sir J. Stevenson stated, that he hired the defendant to drive him
a distance of less than a mile, and when he got out the latter
charged him four shillings! Seeing that he was beastly drunk, he
took him into a shop, and there paid hint the four shillings, at the
same time telling him that be should be punished for extortion.—
Upon this the defendant abused him.
The coachman apologised very humbly, and said he would t at
have offended the Gentleman for the world if it had net been for
the confounded drink.
His contrition, whether sincere, or what he himself would call
"gammon," had the effect of lessening his punishment, for he was
fined only in the lowest penalty of 10s. and coots for each offence.
