Desperate Assault.

During the afternoon of Thursday last, a sweep by the name of Hawkins (a well known character,) had been carousing at the "Rose and Crown," Old Romney. Towards evening he became exceedingly violent and unruly, and it was found necessary to call in the assistance of the constable, when on attempting to secure him, he bit, kicked, and used dangerous means to prevent being taken; however, he was eventually secured, and on being taken before the magistrates at New Romney, was fined £2 for assaulting the constable, £1 each, for the same offence against the landlord and a young man whose assistance was required, and in default of the money not being paid within a given time, to be committed to Maidstone for two months, which it is hoped will operate as a warning to him and others who are fond of inopportunely displaying their pugilistic and abusive powers.
