MARLIBOROUGN-STRIZT.—A gentleman, fashionably
&Weald, attended before the Magistrate, to exhibit arti-
cles of the peace against another gentlru►rn, for having
etillnd him a trounilrel, and using other epithets, from
which lie apprehended some bodily harm.
He stated that he was, with some gentlemen, riding
in Hyde Park,when, in their preseme, the person charged
came up to him in a menacing manner, anal used such
language as induced him to anticipate some personal at-
tack, as, his life was in danger.
The defendant appeared much affected, anal said, the
person by whom he was charged was formerly respected
by him as his friend, and he encouraged him to his
house, where he (defendant) was living on terms of
happiness with his once &notable wife, until the com-
plainant endeavoured to tamper with her feelings, and at
length seduced her from her home, and mold not even
allow him to visit her. Prior to this he was the hap-
piest man on earth, hut now he was the t miserable.
He confessed having spokes harshly to complainant, in
consequence of his impudentle coming up to leis friends,
who n-err on horseback, amf making free with them,
after such dishonourable conduct. Several gentlemen
who were on the ride proved that the defendant threat-
erred to insult Mr. 11. every where he no him, until he
received satisfaction, and the Magistrate ordered him to
find bail.
