IVESTMINSTER SESSIONS.

Yesterday the Sessions commenced before Mr.Viray.
etwr-Cliairman, and a run bench of Magistrates.
William Simpson .was indicted for assaulting W.
Westoti, a constable of Bow-street, in the men-
tion of his duty, on the 2d of August last.
The Prosecutor stated, that on that day he had
been ordered on duty in Jubilee Fair,-end had re.
ceived particular instructions to prevent the mold.
tude from injuring the young treas. In' the course
of the day he observed some boys climbing she trees
in the Park-keeper's inclosure, and desired' them to
collie down ; all of them complied exceptose, and
be refused ; the Prosecutor was proceeding to pall
him' down, when• the boy cried out, end- the De.
fondant coming op, began to hustle the Prosecutor.
and told him hedeserved to be ducked la the pond
near the spot, yid called on the crowd to carry his
proposition into effect. This they seemed mucks ie.
dined to do,- when• another constable coning up,
they desisted from the attempt.
These circumstances were corroborated by other
evidence, and the,Jury found the Defendant Gidtitiy.
John Seabright, the driver of 11 hackney-crich,
was indicted for assaulting John Shone, a private
soldier, whilst on duvet Covent-garden Theatre; oa
the night of the 25th of September last. r..
The I'roseeutor stated, that he had been placed
sentry at the door of the Theatre on thenight in goes.
tion, and had received directions not to suffer any
carriages whatever to come up to the front rif the
Theatre, Jo as to block up the passage. At-st lite
hour of the evening, however, the Defendant having
forced his way dp, placed his coach directly opposite
I-the door of the Theatre, so as entirely to whstruct
the Way: The Prosecutor went to him, and informed
him he could not stop there ; but- the Defendant
d— —d him, and said he would in spite of hint; and
if he chose he Would drive through -the Theatres-..
The Prosecutor again remonstrated with him, but
without effect ; and Gilding remonstrance vain, he
took hold of the reins, and 'endeavoured to put the
'horses- back,' on which the Defendant jumped front
his box and struck him several furious blows with
the'lesh and but-end of his whip. Notwithstanding
this and his abuse, the Prosecutor did not tasa,llia
temper, or attempt to strike him in return awhile
Defendanti after some time, seeing • Danaldawsitthe
Bow-street Officer, coming up, jumped on .1114:bise
and drove off.. -

These facts were corroborated by. other, witnesses,
and the Jury found the .Defendant Guio.
I. Mr—At.t.en stated, that• the present prosecution
had been instituted and was carried on by the Pro•
i.prietors of. the Theatre, who were -induced to this
severity by the repeated complaints which had been
made to them of the Defendant's disorderry conduct.
The CLIAIRMAN said, the public•were greatly in.
debted to the Proprietors for the steps they bad thos
taken to secure the safety of persons frequenting the
•Theatre, by repressing the improper and outrageous
conduct of the Defendant. The soldier, also, he
felt himself bound to say, was deserving of much
commendation for the temper and moderation with
which he had conducted himself. The Dgfendant
was then sentenced to three months' imprisonment its
the house of Correction.
