THE FIELD 
Correction. Inflammation having boon caused, a past a^axamin*. 
»|jn took place, and the crown plcco was found in ills inside. The 
g m tie man robbed wo* not in attendance to prosecute the case.— Mr. 
Carrie remanded the prisoners for a week. 
LAMIJKTII. 
William Ebb* an elderly man. was charged with attempting to cut his 
wiro-s throat with a razor, and George Ebbs, tho son, was charged with 
assaulting the polloc on the occasion, whilst In the execution nl their 
,j a ,y The elder prisoner is a shoemaker, and his wife, who was 
evidently labouring under very severe illness, doposed that they had 
had eighteen children, ten of whom were alive, and dependent on them 
for support, the youngest being only seven month* old. Her husband 
wa* a good husband when sober, but at present trade wos bad, and he 
took to drinking ot time*. Site had been ill with fever since Friday 
week, and the doctor having given her an order for some strengthening 
food from the workhouse, she asked her husband to go and fetch the 
koit.c, but ho swore at her, and boot her dreadfully, nnd then went out. 
She then wont and lay down on her son's bod, and her son got under- 
neath to watch that his father did her no Injury on his return, for her 
husband when drunk was like a madman Her husband soon came 
back drunk and commenced threatening her, nnd a neighbour camo In 
and took the baby out of harm's way. Her husband then took out a 
razor, and her soil rushed from under tho bed, nnd while they were 
struggling together the police came In. Her liushand then sold It was his 
own throat he meant to cut, — Poll oe - constaklo Cniiagan said lie told the 
younger prisoner to lot his father go, nnd he would take him (tho 
father) to the station-house. The son then said, " You shall not do so," 
and commenced kicking witness so violently Hint he felt the efftet* then. 
—Tho elder prisoner, in defence, said he was sorry for what had hap- 
pened, hut he had no desire to see his family fed from the workhouse, 
and »a« vexed that Ills wife should ask him to go there for food. — The 
Magistrate said he was not surprised that a woman seeing her children 
round her wanting food should speak harshly, nnd, as they were situated, 
she oould not do better than apply to the workhouse as she lmd done, 
IIow did the prisoner get drunk if times wore so hard with him ?— Pri- 
soner : Oil ! we can ulwnys do that by looking up shopmates who uro on 
the “ fuddle."— It appeared from the evidence of a neighbour that the 
older prisoner was pretty often scon drunk, and Mr. Norton, in deciding 
on the ease, after a long hearing, said he was disposed, on account of 
the son having behaved So well in protecting his mother, to let him off 
— a course in which the prosecution concurred. Tho younger prisoner 
begged that Ills father might be let off too, but the latter was remanded. 
Tho ease altogether caused a painful interest in a crowded court. — Mr. 
Norton acknowledged tho receipt of 6s, from C. M. M., and £2 from Mr. 
S., for tho poor-box. 
SOUTHWARK. 
Mary Ann Eurkr, a decent-looking young woman, wo* charged with 
attempting to commit suicide In the Surrey Canal. — William Boyle, a shoe- 
maker, residing near tho canal in the Old Kent -road, said he had known 
the prisoner some time as a servant near tho locality. This morning she 
came to him In o hurried manner, and sold that she had been so ill-used 
that she was determined to drown herself in the canal. Site then left 
his house, and he followed her towards the canal, nnd while lie was 
talking to a friend about It, and looking for a constable, ho saw her 
plunge Into the water. 11c immediately ran to the edge and caught 
hold of her clothes, and with assistance he succeeded in getting her out, 
without any iftjury except wetting her clothing. — Mr. A'Beckot re- 
manded her until Monday next, to give the officers an opportunity of 
making some Inquiries about her. 
NEW MUSIC. 
The Arab Mother. By Wellington Guernsey.- — When You 
and I were Young. Song. By .1. B. Allen. — Adieu, dear 
Home. Ballad. Written by Richard Bennett. Music 
by E. J. Loder. — Boosey and Sons. 
" Tho Arab Mother" is a flowing melody in the key of F 
major. It has been sung by Miss Stabbach with immense 
applause both in England and Germany, where the latter 
young lady is on a professional visit. It is within the reach 
of any moderate voice, and, from its simple and pure style, 
must become a favourite. 
Dr. Allen's ballad, "When You and I wero Young, " pos- 
sesses one charm at least, and that i3 originality. The 
accompaniment displays a vigorous feeling throughout, quite 
in keeping with the melody, which is beautiful to a degree. 
Mr. E. J. Loder could hardly fail to write a melody worthy 
of Mr. Bennett's elegant and soft-flowing words. They 
display a style seldom met with in these days of go-ahead in 
poetry, as well as every other commodity. The melody, in 
B flat, possesses every requisite to become one of the most 
popular songs of the day.

The Comic Zadkiel. Edited by II \ix Friswi li. ; xvith Con-

This is really a comic almanac, full of spirit and fun, with 
n joke good, bad, or indifferent, for almost every day in the 
year. To those who would enjoy a hearty laugh, we can 
safely recommend this slnlling's-worth. Scarcely any subject 
is left untouched, and it is surprising how the authors have 
c mtrived to get so much good matter into so necessarily a 
limited space. The following quotation is from the pages of 
tliis amusing little work : — 
RESUSCITATION OF THE DRAMA BY MR. CHARLES KEAN. 
Zadkiel submits the following guide to the next drama at the 
Princess's : — Mr. Kean will perform all the characters, being at one 
time his own brother, sister, father, mother, aunt, uncle, and cousins, 
all of whom he will, in due course, make corses, a9 well as of himself, 
when he will appear as his own ghost, and also the ghosts of his rela- 
tives. The action of the play will bo supposed to commence five years 
before it takes place, and all the acts will occur at the same time in 
different places. In the first act Mr. Kcau will appear as Ids own 
brother, while he himself is killed a long way off, when ho will appear 
to Ids brother ns his own ghost. Then he will repair to the place 
where he wos before ho was Ids brother, after ho was killed, and will 
there kill the villain who slew him at the time he was his brother. His 
ghost will then again appear, and with himself, who Is very like some 
ono else, who is himself, will attack a mail-coach nnd four, driven by 
himself, when he Will shoot himself, and immediately appear ns some- 
body else, who will be arrested, and afterwards taken to execution ; 
when sombody else, who is not himself, but who was him before ho 
became another person, will be seized and executed ; after which lie 
will himself come home to Ids fi lends, who are all enacted by Mr. Kean, 
and receive their congratulations. 
The scene which our artist has rendered with such terrible vitality 
and such vital terror, exhibits Kean slaying himself after a fearful 
struggle ; the death-scene of the greater villain of the two being 
troubled by the vision of various ghosts of himself in other characters, 
the possessor of which ghosts he had, at a period anterior to the opening 
ufthe piece, slain; we believe the dialogue to bo somewhat of this 
kind : 
Kean No. 1. (With terrible emphasis) — T'so, t'so, t'so, you shall die, 
eternal ruffian. 
Kean No. 2. — Oh do, do, do (he should say “no"), your arm is not 
strong enough to pierce a heart of styeel (steel). [They fight ; Kean No. 1 
at last knocks No. 2 down, and bores his sword through Aim.] 
Kean No. 2. ( With horrible contortions) — Alas! his brazen arm and 
Iron bone, his muscles made of Sheffield steel, have pierced me. Alas ! 
I die. Know, fellow, that my arm cut off thy mother’s life, thy father's 
head, th.v fathers, mothers, brothers, sisters {Enter ghosts) Ila! ha! 
they rc-appenr : they're devilish like thee. 1 go to meet them. [Givans 
horribly and dies.] 
Kean No. 1 . — An end of ono ! 
Let's see, where am I now ? oh 1 No. Two, 
I will away, there's business yet to do. 
The last scent, wherein every one of the characters appear in Tarta- 
rus, and each claim to be tho real person: who at the same time is in 
propria jiersona paying them a visit, is extremely puzzling. Tho bluo 
and red fires in the scene surpass everything since Sardanapalus ; und 
the audience are so bewilderingly delighted, and delightedly bewildered, 
that Charles Kean Is expected to bo made to rc-appear before the 
curtain in all hl9 characters at once. 
There is plenty of variety given to the volume by a pro- 
fusion of illustrations, admirably executed by M'Connell, 
who, in his execution of these works, shows a rapid advance- 
ment in his art.
