INSOLENCE OF FOREIGN VALETS!

Yesterday the clamant pugilistic Champion of
England, the celebrated Mr. Gulley, was charged at
Marlborough-street Office, with an assault on a ser-
vant of the Honourable Cochrane Johnson, in Princes-
street. It appeared that the prosecutor and his com-
panion (both blacks), were walking arm in arm at a
slow pace on the narrow part of the pavement, so that
the passengers behind them could not pats without
getting into the mud. Mi. Gulley, who was urgent
to get on, tapped the prosecutor gently on the shoul-
der, and very politely begged his permission to pass,
which he, in unbecoming language, refused, (not
knowing his man) by telling him there was plenty
of room there! (meaning the kennel.) Gulley re-
monstrated in a temperate manner, but to no purpose.
An altercation ensued, terminated by a willing, in
which the prosecutor lost a tooth, but received a black
eye as a compensation. Mr. Gulley was ordered to
find bail, which he instantly did, and was dismissed.

MA RLBOROUGH•STREET. —Monday, John Davison,l
a servant, was charged with having intruded him-
self into the service of Mrs. Stacey, of Somerset-
street, by means of a letter, purporting to have been
written by a Solicitor in the City, speaking in high
terms of the prisoner's conduct. It appeared in evi-
dence that the prisoner had lived in the solicitor's ser-
vice, but had been dismissed for dishonest conduct,
without being prosecuted. His conduct in Mrs.
Stacey's service gave rice to a suspicion that she bad
been imposed upon, and she applied to a Mr. George,
who keeps a Register Office, to ascertain the fact.—
It turned out that the letter and its signature were
altogether fabrication. ; and in default of paying a
film of 120, the prisoner was sentenced to six months
imprisonment in Coldbath-fields prison.
The servant of Lord H. who stood charged with
an attempt to poison a family in Maddox-street, has,
under all the circumstances of the case, been admit-
ted to bail, to answer the charge at the Old Bailey ;
facts having transpired which demonstrated that the
Act was not done from malicious motives, but rather
from ignorance.

Sarah Somers apprehended by Goff, were charged

bag containing aluantity of boot legs and vamps.—
The prisoners were fully committed.
