Middlesex Sessions, Thurs...
lmis ntay tle sessions were held pursuant to adJournment, to dis. pose of the cases which l:ad been travetsed at the last sessions. Willi:tm Dwiger was indicted for assaulting Williamn Hzard. The parties were mere lads. The prosecutor stated,that he was one evening, at the end of Octo. ber, proceeting very quietly along Brill-row when he received a blow on the right side of the head. Hle turned round to look for his assailant, but the latter as if aware of his intention, ctnningly hit him In the left eye with. such force and precisiln, that the blow at once closed up that necessary ori-n, and lodged its possessor In the kennel, to thc serious detriment of a new suit of clothes which he ha4 ort. Theprosecuter, however, had still one eye left, which enabled him to discover that it was the prisoner who used him so roughly. The prisoner, when called on for his tdefence, proceeded to tell his story. On the night in question he saw the prosecutor walking arnn-in.arm with a young lady, with whom hehad - kepi com any" for a year and n months, and, as he imagined; to some yurpose. Tlrany a lover under sutch circumstances would have ventured tipn some desperate act, but he, fortunately, was all self-possession, ad con- tensted himself with asking the prosecutor what business he had with the lady. The prosecutor, in retetrn, asked the prisoner what that was to him. The prisoner, still all meekness, said " It was some. thing to him ;" whereupon the prosecutor inquired'conerpptuously HRow he eould help himself ?" From words they came to blows, but which struck first he could not for the life of him tell. The CHACRCCAs-.W.hy the prosecutor swears that you' struck him, and knocked Iiml into the kennel. The prisoner could not account for that drcuuistance. The Jurv found the prisoner Guilty. The COu RT sentenced the prisoner to pay a fine of 51 ,with liberty to speak to the prosecutor. _ MIIDDLESEX SESSIONS, THiURLSDAY. Nov. II.
