SERIOUS CHARGES AGAINST PROFESSOR SWALLOW.

The Prisoner Committed for Trial.

The Police Court and the avenues leading thereto were crowded this morning by a gaping crowd desirous of satisfying their morbid curiosity. Mr Theo. Cooper, how ever, who appears with Mr George in defence, asked that the Court might be cleared during the hearing of the three charges, a request which His Worship im mediately granted. Prisoner walked into the box with apparently an air of conscious innocence. The first charge was that the prisoner, Martin Swallow, did feloniously, wickedly, and unlawfully solicit and incite one Samuel Cann to commit an in decent offenco on tho liOth ultimo.— Samuel Cann deposed that he was an engine-driver by profession. On the even ing of tho HOth of October, he was in the commercial room of the Britomart Hotel, engaged in reading the Evening Star. Prisoner and another man were in the room. Prisoner approached him, and solicited him to have a drink, lie refused, being an ab stainer. Swallow then asked him what his business was. He told him he was an engine-driver. Another poison was with the prisoner (McLean). Told him he was unemployed. Swallow said, " You are a fool; you can get your living without work." IJo then offered witness 10s for a vile purpose, and made use of disgusting ex pre_sions(unfitfor publication). Witness loft the hotel, and went along Fort-street to Queen-street. Prisoner followed him, and on turning the hotol corner of Fort-street, when prisonor came up to him, lifted his hat, and offered him 20s. He rejected it, and turned back to tho Britomart Hotel, and took his tea. Somo time after prisoner accosted him in the passage, but ho got away from him, and went to the Waitemata Hotel. Again prisoner came up to him and repeated his offensive offer. Ho told him to go away, or he would givo him in charge. At length he was compelled to report the matter to tho police, and asked Sergeant Donnelly to take the prisoner out of his way.— Androw Fernandez, licensee of the Brito mart Hotel, remembered seoing the prisoner and Cann at tho hotol together. Saw them leave, but not together. Cann was in and out tho hotol sovoral times. They left separately. Swallow told him that Cann was a fool to work. He ought to ride in his carriage. Other portions of the ovidonce wore unfit for publication, He told prisoner ho ought to be ashamed of himself to talk in such a disgusting manner. —Sergeant James Donnolly arrested the prisoner, assisted by Constable Sole, in the right-of-way at the back of Jakin's bono store, Britomart. Mr Cooper made an able defence for the prisoner, but His Worship considered that tho evidence was sufficient to send the case to a jury. The prisoner was therefore committed to take his trial at the next sitting of the Supreme Court. Tho other charges against the prisoner were re manded until the Bth instant. Prisoner's bail extended.

At tho Gaol on Saturday aftornoon an ii-quost was hold on the body of Benjamin West, who was admitted on tho 28th inst. und.r a sontenco of 12 months hard labour, and died on the 3lst. Tho jury returned a vordiot of "Death from natural causes," and added tho following rider t "Tho jury desires to draw tho attention of tho authori ties to the evidence, which has boon to the effect that Benjamin West was d'scharged from the Hospitd in a dying state." Dr. Bond Bond informs us that "Benjamin West was discharged from the Hospital on October 2nd quite cured of rheumatism, for which he had been treated." ■

The usual half-yearly Civil Service examinations (junior division) commenced this morning, under the supervision of Mr G. W. Basley (Deputy Registrar). Eleven candidates presented themselvos, one being a lody.'
