Mary Storey, a fine-looking young woman, who gave her age as twenty, was charged with being drunk in the public Btreets last night, also with being a rogue and a vaga bond.

Prisoner said she was very drunk, but she was not disposed to plead guilty to the other portion of the charges. Constable Mulville proved that he observed prisoner in company with two men, and she was jostling them. Detective Ternahan said he had known the prisoner for a long time, and that she was of the "unfortunate" class who parade the streets. Mr Broham said he did not wish to press the charge against the woman, who had been Several times convicted. Wis Worship referred to her numerous offences and imprisonments, and sentenced her to six months' imprisonment with hard labour. ASSAULTING CONSTABLE MULVILLE. George Henderson was brought up on a charge of assaulting Constable Mulville while in the execution of his duty, and damaging handcuffs to the amount of half-a-crown. Prisoner pleaded not guilty, as they were damaged by the constable himself, who laid them about his head. Constable Mulville stated that while tak ing prisoner into custody he resisted, and twisted the handcuffs "and damaged them. The Court sentenced him to three weeks' imprisonment with hard labour. NEGLECTED CHILDREN. A destitute child named Fowler, one of five children belonging to John Fowler, a labourer, of Bacon's Court, Chancery Lane, was charged with being in a neglected con dition. The parents of the children were in Court, tv ' the father strongly objected to his child V m committed for any lengthened period tt- le Home for destitute children. I'he condition of the parents' home was described as of the most wretched, filthy, and demoralizing nature, both by the officer, Mr Drury, and others. The mother was repre sented as a great drunkard. Mr Itattray alao spoke of the condition of

the parents, and how they tried to thwart the endeavours of the Committee. The Court ordered the child to be sent for six years to the school for such children, and to be brought up in the faith of the Roman Catholic Church. Another child of Fowler's was then intro duced into Court in a miserable dirty con dition ; he was eleven yep.rs old. Ordered to the Industrial School for a term of four years, to be brought up in the religion of the mother, the father agreeing to pay 2s. 6d, a-week. ~ . Two children of the name of Macdonald, of Rutland-street, next appeared on the same charge. The girls appeared clean, and were dressed rather gaily, or, as his Worship des cribed it, "tawdry finery." Mr Joy, on the part of the mother, opposed the application on the ground that the mother was well able and willing to support them. It was proved, however, pretty conclusively that Mrs Macdonald was a person of disre putable character, and on this ground the application was made. . After a good doal of discussion on the case it was remanded until Wednesday next This was all the business
