oUGH-STREET.

The notorious and celebrated Mary dun Pearce was brought up
from St. Gnats watch-house, as one of those disorderlies who roam
at the canonical hour, " seeking whom she may devour," while the
generality el the world are reposing in the arms of Morpheus. How
many dime she hid paid her obeisance to the chair shaded by the
arms of royalty, it was dilicuk to ascertain with precision. At all
events she was an old acquaintance of Mr. Dyer's, the Magistrate,
was very familiar with Plank, aid seemed perfectly " at home'
with Marsden, the gaoler. Few of us improve in person as we ad-
vapce in years, and those who knew Mary Anne in 1616, might
easily be deceived is the prams* or Mary Anne in 1826. Still
is she the same as ten years ago—always furious—ungovernable io
the extreme; the counterpart of walling in nature. One would
think her sari 'merit s it is hardly possible to believe, that aught of
human farm produced so abandoned, so disgraceful a progeny. To
language which better society at some period reined, she added the
excess of vulgarity and beastly expression, and blended them both
in the same phrase. It was impossible to bring her to the once
through the streets, she threw herself on the lags, seised the rails,
and kicked at all around her, regardless of the exposure of her per-
use, and the injury *1 life and limb of those who attempted her re-
moval ; therefore it was necessary to bring her in a coach, followed
by no ordinary number of the curious to get a glance at her Lady-
ship. When she alighted, with a look of the meet inefrable contempt,
sad a theatrical expansion of the arms, she exclaimed—
" What'i all this bustle that I see?
What's all the world to me ?"
. _

and, driving the bye-standars to the right aid left, forced her way
into the hall; she was very orderly when Inc placed at the her.
William watchman of St. Wes's, stated, that the pri-
soner was on his beat at twelve o'clock on Tuesday night, in High-
street, behaving in a riotous and disorderly manner, disturbing the
whole neighbourhood by her outrageous conduct. As she would
not mom away en chill asking her, he took her Into custody, and
placed her in the watch. .

The expression had scarcely passed her Up, than her slipper was
directed at the uncovered bead of Mr. 'es, who, steins the
light at the missile, stooped to save his °realm*, and wiled at the
fruitless Wert. In an instant she weasorronoded by the constables,
three et whom it took to hold her within the bar, she raving

Thy, Mr. Seamed Dims, the Common Councilasaa. wag
brought up to this °Mee, under the authority of a warrant, *barge
ing hint with assaulting one al his neighbours. a Mt. Isithiey4
residing in.tise Walwortiroad. Previous to the investigation of
the case, the defendent applied to have it postponed, in 'mite that
be might have the attendance of his professional advisers, as the
circumstances that led to the amok were of such a nature acts
require the aid of a solicitor to develop tie whole of the facts.
The complainant and his witness were, however, in attendance,
and the Magistrate decided, as it was a there assault saw, that it
should be entered into at once.
The complainant was then sworn. He stated that he was a
cheescousoger, residing within a very few doors of Mr. Dawn's
house; that on Saturday afternoon, while he was attending to the
customers in his shop, the defendant came in, and advancing to,
wards the counter, commenced abusing one of the apprentices,
threatening, in laud language, to anaihilate the lad, in the event of
his not disclosing the names and places of abode of three ether
youths. by whom, it appeared, Mr. Dixon had been annoyed. The
apprentice repeatedly told the defendant that be could not give him
the information be required, when the latter became *till mace vs-
&nous, and the noise and disturbance occasioned by this clamour
collected a group of persons round the door, and impeded the
business of the shop.
At this immune complainant interfered, requesting Mr. Dixon
either to quit his shop, or to discontinue the uproar he was making. •
Mr. Muth however, refused to listen to any remonstrance far
tranallity, and when he (complainant) advanced towards him for purpose of insisting on his leaving the shop, Mr. Dixon doubled
his list and struck him a blow in the (ace, saying, 41 There, take that
facer am* how did you like It? lam an old mm and you are a
y him, bee for all that I think I should be able to lick you."
Mr. said that Mr. Dixon then threw himself into a posture
for Islating and actually wanted him to have a " turn up" in his
own shop before all the customers, and the crowd that were gathered
outside the door. The challenge, however, was refused, the colt-
plaiting* informing Mr. Dixon, who then left the shop. that be
should have other satisfaction than having a " set-to" with a man
so well skilled in the attic art. Mr. Burnley forthwith lodged his
complaint against the defendant, and procured the warrant tor the
assault.

. The apprentice whom the defendant first addreseed when he
entered Mr. Burnley's shop, was called, and he corroborated his
master's testimony with regard to the assault and the language mod
by Mr. Dixon.
The defendant was then ordered to put in bail, to newer the
charge at the Sessions.
