MAstAsslor zotg:._Tw0 men, named AMurp7ry and Dowling, were brought before the LoRD MfAYoRt yesterday, charged with having violently :&sfulted the landlady of a public-.ouse, which is kept tn at night for the accommodation of the people connected viit rul tnlgsgate-market. It %rns preved that the defendants forced their way into the house that in consequence of the refusal of the landlady to supply them with Eiquor, they tore her clothes, and assaulted her. The defendants said, that the house was an open house, and there;ire they were at libert' to go in, and have what they called for. The LoRi ADLtwVB said, that as a magistrate of the city of London, putting out of the question au private feeling, he shoulsd take care to, protect females from injury and insult. It was 'rell known to the public, that a gentleman, of the name Of O'Callaghan, wa4 novw sufFering the most rigorots punishment for laving,wieh the spirit of a gentleman, Tesented all insult oiertid tost_m in tho persons of ladies who were under his rortec. tisoub-,at he na dopmed to liyt upon bread and vater, an tO be Confzed in a cell, fot doing what, if he had not done, he would no longetc be considered entitled to the character which had been uni. veTsally given of him. NVhen such a punishment was considered by so la-i,e a portion of the magistr2cy of a neighbouring county an in- fiite'in of a mild nature, growing out of the strong recommendation ta jury, for a violaion of thc law, what rort of ciastisement were thoit persona to receive who committed lan outrage upon a helpless femtna? 7 Vhaeever rentimene might he entertained elsewhere upon the xrsbjece, the Magistrates of the city of London would not easily glVe up their bd prejudice in favour of that spirit which a shar leFul insult offered to a woman was calaculted to excite even am')ngst avage. Ilhe wife of one of the defendants here made a powerfal appeal to the LoRDi AAYoR. She burst into tears, and assured his Lordship thU, if her husband -was sent to prison, the and her children, of whom she had six or'sevem, must be without victuals. 'The complainant told his Lordship that she was unwilling to do an? injury to the defe&daiit, as their wives and families must be th r most severe sufferers. Although she had sustained serious in. jusy., from her terror,hs wel as from the actual violence with which sher had bcen treated, lsbe should forgive what had passed. Vhe LoRLD AIIAYOIa said, tbe humanity of the prosecutrix more stro3gly brought to hii mind she case which he hadjustquoted. If the sefthad no other right. toourproecccton than thatjustmanifested thereadiness to forgive-theirclaim would be undeniable. Notwith- st=ndingthc consequences which might arise to tbe families of the de- feadants, he should think it his dute to commit them for this very geSs assault; and he trusted that tg determination woald aocrate as 4 counteracter to any encouragement which persons mighereceeve on thi subject of thetreaunent of women from another quarter. Women sa ould not be insulted with impunity in the city of London. His lrdship, in conclusion, stated that the poor woman who had been a., aulted was in a trade in wlhich she encountered many annoying di ficulties. If she did not take care to keep her house free from ofl insive company, her licence was in jeopardy.
