U SEPT. 14 POLICE. MANSION HOUSE. A' nob SCENE.—The Lord Mayor was Interrupted in the coarse of his business by a sailor, a showman and a monkey, ss Ito arrived ut the Justice Burins with a great multitude libel them, on Tuesday. The monkey was making a moat hideous noise, and the saitcir and showman, who had been arguing its their way to she Maasimeltouse, were so wholly absorbed ill the subject •f -divine .1 4 111)1 In take notice for some time of the authority presiding'. Tae mankey was much more attentive to gorilla, ne a p es will be preseittly seen, scented to have all impression that lie had got lulu better eoinpany than lie had been aeeits tonted to. His Lordship, having noticed the respectful demeanour of the monkey, called stemma the sailor and-showman to follow the example of the animal, who at that moment began to play some of the most leugliable tricks, such as pulling the show_ man's nose, untying Ms cravat, dragging open his waistcoat, and, in fact, proceeding to the hosiiiess of stripping him. The Lord Mayor having desired that the complaint, if there was ally, should be immediately stated, the sailor said he and Vie monkey were the injured persons, and the shOWIII4II was the aggressor. His Lordship seemed to think that the monkey would be as well able to explein the matter as either of ills Companions, and if it would be fair to judge from the expression of the face, one would attribute to the monkey, the moment the sailor began to speak, a more clear notion of the business; for while the features of the man were agitated with passion, those of the monkey were as grave as a philosopher's, and any body would have imagined that he was serious, was it Out that he now and then rubbed hose with his paw and a ipeil it no the showman's whiskers. The monkey-kept his eye fixed upon the Lord Mayor while his Lordship was speaking, said at the conclusion of every sentence tittered a piercing yell, that startled every body in the office. The sailor then said, that lie went into Oilman and Amlkits's exhibition of wild beasts, in Bartholomew fair ; and while he was looking at the curiosities, be heard a very shrill noise, to' which his ears were not strangers. Upon looking to the eloper part of a large cage, lie saw the monkey which Was nos% be/'ore ins Lordship, in great agitettots, mot in au instant knew it to be his own property. which he had purchased at St. Kite's, for 4or 3 dollars, and. lost at Plymouth sumo tune ago. lie hie. inediately (obi the keeper that he was d—il if that was nut his monkey, and have it he would. The keeper refused to give it up oil each authority, and declai ed that his masters had bought it feisty for a pound. The showman was by this time in a high .passion wiLb the monkey, who had seized him with such violeuce by the wise as to make him ryas . out. The animal was growing mote and more averse to the control of the keeper, held nut his 11:1%1S to the gailor, and moaned! in the most dtrniil manner. Tim Lord Nlmij or said; the only way for him to decade upon a C.l%e in which there was positive aSpiertiOo Oil both sides, was to leave the matter to the inoakey himself. His Lordship directed that the monkey should be placed upon the table, and that each party claiming lien shooed use his powers of l'aecination,iii order to ascertain to whom the monkey was most attached. The monkey was put upon timetable, but it was nearly fatal to him, fur a large dog which had been a constant visitant at the Misnsiou-lionse, and had been watching fur some time, made a spring at him, and but for the sailor, would probably have decided the matter without giving his Lordship may hither trouble. 'The Lord Mayor marked the effect of this very important adventure upon the plaintiff mil defendant, and WA/ 01 opinion that as the greater concern was manifested upon the part of the sailor, he-was the light master. His Lordship is supposed to have had in view a precedent of very high authority. The monkey clung about the neck of the sailor, and licked him, patted his checks, sad caressed him in the most affec tionate manner. The Lord Mayer desired the showman to take liime.from the sailor, hit the.attempt exasperated time unbind greatly. The sailor said, that if turfing grout war tiecessery, he would give it. The Lord Mayor suggested that the parties should issne commands to time monkey. rhe showiliao put a piece of stick in the monkey's paw, aryl ordered hint to shoulder alms. Instead of complying with the of der, tile monkey. stiack the keeacr on the bead, and then threw it in his face. The sailor then called to hint," Jack, make a salaam to his Lordship" The monkey inatantly stood erect on his Iliad legs, raised his paw to the tap of his head, and made a low bow to the Lord Mayor in the Turkish style ; lie then hugged the sailor as before. " It' any thing else is necessary," said the sailor, " I'll do something more ; there is a hole iii one of his ears, which I bured.in St. Kitt's, for it is fashionable for the bucks to wear °set earring there • his lett paw is marked by a fishing hook, and part of his tai l was bitten by a peseta that sued to quarrel with him." These marks were observed. The Lord Mayor advised the showman to give up alkelaim to the monkey. Toe show man reftwed. The sailor refused to part with the monkey, and the monkey refused to part with him.

While he was thus employed, he was ten-hied by the appearance of Mr. Bignold, who came into the room with so nineli impetuosity as to prevent Mr. 3 from knowing what he was about. He frothed at the month, and swore nu one should come nit° his house without Isis permission, knocked a book out of Grave's hand, took Sties wood by the shoirMers, and threatened to break his neck down stairs.

Mr. Wilson said, lie certainly had nut interfered when Mr.' Bignold put the gentlemen out of the room, because the apartment was in Mr. Biguold's private dwelling, and any interposition on his part was not wart•anted.

BOW STREET. Wednesday, Mr. Hunt u•as brought to this Oilier, under a warrant issued by Mr. Itirnie on Tuead.iy, to answer to a charge of .assault upon Mr. Doss lin.s, who, it will be reeol. leete,l, Isareewlsipped hint on the hustings at the late West. minster•Electiou. Mr. Itirnie having called upon Mr. Dowling to state his charge, he said, the simple accusation which lie had to make against Mr. Hunt •stas, that he had struck him on the preced ing day in St. Clement's church-yet He wi..lied to ex plain, however, the manner in which the circumstance took place. He had been informed some days back, that it was Mr. Hunt's intention, in conjunction with his brother, to give him what is called a goo.l thruNhing, and had resolved, if such anattempt were made, to make no resistance, but to treat them in the 111;11111E1' which pca suns who had fin felted the racier of gentlemen deserved. On Tuesday moriliag, -having borrowed a naw•snoper of Mr. Charles Clement, lie called into his shop, stunithalf.past elevera.,to retort) it. Mr. Hunt and Lis son were there. Nlr. Malang laid tint paper on the counter, and was retiring, when Mr. Hunt exclaimed, " Well, Mr. Spectacle Spy, are you disposed to finish any horse-whipping now?" Mr. Dow ling replied, " Mr. Hunt, I to have no altercation with von," and was retiring, when Mr. Haunt delivered the foulest epithets, and said lie was a despicable Government spy and infoimer. Mr. Dowling defied him or any man on earth to prove the assertion, Mr. Hula then said," you got it inserted in all the papers the account of your• hating• horsewhipped me, and that I had nut the spirit to resent it." Mr. Dowling, in answer, rather for ti.e cars of several persons who were in the shop, than for Mr. Hunt's gratification, said, " Upon my honour the charge is incorrect." Mr. Hunt then added, , " It you did not, some of your myrmidon colleagues did ; and I shall find an opportunity to give you-ii good thrashing," following up this threat a itli.an invitation to go into the street then, anti tight it out. Mr. Dowling said that lie might exe- cute his threat then, but that he should feel himself degraded by resenting any thing which so eoutemptible a fellow either said ur did, at least in the way lie seemed to wish ; and was then quitting the shop, alien Nit.. Hunt followed him to the door, and repeated Isis invitation to a boxing match in the street. Mr. Dow ling agaituleelined the proposed exhibition, and Mr. Hunt struck him a slight blow on the face, which kuocked off his spectacles " ll—n you," continued Mr. Hoot, " will you resent that r'—" Not in the way you wish, MI. Hum," replied Mi. ; " and even if I were di.. posed so far to degrade myself, the infirmity of being sh..rt sighted would prevent me ;tom engaging in su coequal a con test." Mr. Dowling then walked away, tint returaeti,aud asked for, anti obtained Mi. Hunt's address, with a view to the pie sent proceeding. Mr. A. Lydon, who was in Mr: Clement's shop when the affray took place, eoriaborated tile statement of Mr. Dow - ling, as to tbe al se lisugnage of Mr. 1111.1 t, and Mr. 1.Y.w.. ling saying that he would nut degrade himself by resent ful %%blot+ came from a person so well knowsi. lie saw Mr. limit strike Mr. 1)..e. liug one blow, and thought h.. attempted W. strike him utterer ; but he eunld not speak pu iiiively to this. . In - cross-examination by Mr. Hunt, lie said be nas ,► re porter, anti had reported the account which had appr.trt tl iti the eveming papers, and vehicle was sailing about by the line le boysthat eisormaig. This account Mr. H, pronoureed cios‘ly incorrect, hameninek as he never collared Mr. D. nor.aiid lie strike hi in more than one 'ol.ow, and that a slight our, rather with view to make him resent it than otherwise; but Dow ling had acted most cowardly, and had refused to flight. There were other parts of the statement which were equally incorreet, Mr. Dowling said he had much more reason to complain of the report thou Nlr. Mat. Mr. tiont.—This is a proof of the sort of fellows who act as frporiers. Mr. Dowling said, that he had'hear4.Mr. Hunt had also turned reporter, and had written an..account stating that he had ktioexed Mr. Dowling down, and performed other acts of ileiansni, with a view of having his account of the trans- action inserted in the papers. if this-were the case, Mr. Hunt certainly did not seem very. well qualified for the office of is reporter any more than the parson to whaut he was objecting. Alr. H tnnt, upon being called on for Ilia viefenee, admitted that Mr. Dowling's account waa.in a great. measure correct, although exaggerated. The cause o: this conduct imputed to him arose oust of the kindness which had occurred iu Co. vent-golden.

MARLBOROUGH STREET. An Italian gentleman, who called himself by the name or Alber g otii, was brought to this office to answer the complaint of Charlotte Barker. The complainant, an interesting female, said, that as slie was walking down Bond-street onWednesday evening, she saw two gentlemen before her, who appearedto he quarrelling; but, as they talked in the French language. she could not perfectly understand the subject of their dis pute. Albergotti struck the gentleman with his umbrellas and tearing the blow aimed might have been serious, she en deavoured to arrest it, upon which the defendant atiarktd' her, struck her with the umbrella tactless the head :Intl (ace, and left the evidettne of his violence on her face, which wads bruised in a shocking manner. A gentleman present, a friend of the defendant, attended AS his interpreter, and stated in defence, that the blow given to the complainant was in self defence, she having struck him first. This, however, was contradicted!! by Alt. Smith (the gentleman above alluded to`. and a female witness. The defendant was therefore ordered to find bail. A seconieharge for an assault was made by3fr.Smitliegainit M. Albereetti. It appeared the defendant had addressed Mr. Smith insolently in 11w French language, anti that gentle— man having insisted upon his receiving satisfaction, and asked 31. Albergutti for his addre•s, which be refused to give, Ited nce.v.ioned the quarrel netween then% and terminated in the defendant's violent conduct towards Charlotte Barker sad present complainant. The defendant was ordered to find hail for this assault likewise.
