It appeared from the evidence adduced, that complainant and defendant were at the “Duke of Cambridge, on Saturday evening last, when a quarrel arose between them. It appeared that defendant drank some of the complainant's beer (without being asked to do so.) Shortly after they left the house, when the defendant in company with others, set upon complainant and his companions, defendant striking him in the eye with a stone.

The complainant and two others, named Elias Price and John White, were then charged with being drunk and disorderly on the night in question, and were each fined the usual drunkard's penalty, 5s., and in default seven day's imprisonment.

With respect the defendant in the first case, his Worship said that the magistrates were of opinion that the charge was fully proved against him, and as he had been twice before them for a similar offence, he was ordered to pay a fine of 10s., and 13s. costs, or one months' imprisonment.
