UNION II A LI.

Tuesday six officers being di-patched to the fight at Croydon,
had orders to bring the names of the principal persons engaged in
it. In consequence of their information, a wan rant was obtained
against Savage and Sweeney, the principals; Ilolt and Redmond,
the seconds; and O'Neil, Oliver, ant: Read; but owing to the ap-
prehension felt at the interference of the Civil Authorities, the re.t
of the party kept out of the way, and 1 Jolt and Redmond were the
two who coold be got at. They accordingly were brought up
yesterday to put in bail for tiotously assembling at Croydon.
Mr. CHAMBIRS expressed himself very much pleated at their
conduct towards the officers, and had no doubt but their punishment
would be slight. However, it was his duty to comply with the
orders of the Bench of Magistrates, who were determined to put
down all meetings of this kind, whether the parties were Noblemen,
Gentlemen, or regular tinier.. Ile then asked, were they prepared
with bail to appear at the Ses.ions on Monday nest?
The defendants replied in the negative.
Halt, the chlA constable. this morning said be would be answera-
ble himself for their appearance. and had no doubt if the rest knew
the warrant was against them, that they would have attended.
The twit defendants promised to do all they could to procure
the attendance of the rest, and were then allowed to go on their
own recognizancrs till Monday, when they will be bound over, and
sent down ininirdiately to the Sessions.

Nearly as the business of the afternoon had yesterday terminated
at this Office, a lady-like looking female, of about .1S years of age.
and dressed in a style ut fashionable elegance, entered the Justice-
room in a state of high excitement, and was approaching the Bench,
and about stating the nature of her visit to M. Weave, Esq. the
Sitting Magistrate, when she was hallowed by a Colonel L. late of
the South American smirk., who interrupted her address by ex-
claiming, " Oh, Islary ; dear Mary ! recollect your husband, your
mother, and children ; don't expose yourself !"

The Lady—That I don't care fur; it will be beard of elsewhere,
and I shall certainly speak. only the truth.
Colonel L. (to Mr. Wyatt)—Might I request it u a favour from
your Worship to bear this business in private? it is altogether a fa.
roily affair. This Lady's friends and relatives are, I assure you,
most respectable ; and as I see there is a reporter in attendance, I
