"After a long deliberation the jury returned a verdict At Hammersmith Police-court, last Tuesday, Henry Tovey and Arthur Bartley, volunteers, appeared to answer adjourned summonses for assaulting George William Acton with their sword bayonets.

Mr. Hayes appeared for the complainant and Mr. Farman for the defendants. The summonses had been adjourned several times. Mr.

Hayes now stated that they had not been able to agree to a settlement. Mr. Sheil said he would hear the case and send it for trial. The complainant said on the night of the 7th of November last he was at the sing song in the parlour of the Havelock public-house, Hammersmith, and saw the defendants in their working clothes! When he left he saw Bartley fighting with another man. After 12 o'clock he heard cries of Murder" in Redan-street.

He went there and saw the defendants in the uniform of the City Artillery Volunteers with their sword bayonets in their hands. Both defendants struck him on the head with their bayonets, and he became insensible. He was taken to the West London Hospital and had his wounds dressed. He never lifted his hand to them. Arthur Bartley was called in a cross summons, He said he was a member of the 1st City of London Artillery Brigade, No.

9 Battery. He was attacked whilst down, and Acton struck and kicked him. He should not have drawn his sword had he not seen Acton attempting to take Tovey's. He had been threatened by the chairman of the sing-song, and he dressed himself in uniform as a disguise. Mr.

Sheil heard witnesses and committed both the defendants and the complainant for trial. He directed the police after the trial to call the attention of the commanding officer of the regiment to the case."
