Thomas Herbert Lewia, a lieutenant of the 31st Indian Native I s l a m , wee placed at the ba r o f th e Sunderland po on flatarday, charged with having committal • violent and dangerous amault upon • boy between nine and ten years of ems, named William George Barnett Francis, residing in Dannatt's-court, Norfolk street. The prisoner bad been taken into custody imme diately after the tumult, and instead of occupying the pri sonerrs Lox lie was allowed to stand behind his solicitor. Mr. Councillor Joseph Potts said—About half-pest three o'clock yesterday afternoon I was going up Norfolk street, when about live yards off I saw • boy advancing, and this gentleman (the prisoner) fol lowing him. When about two vans off be picked the boy up in this manner (Mr. 'Potts illustrated the action by placing one hand upon his throat, and the other on the back part of his trousers), and Bung him up into the air. The boy and he were on the flagging, and the boy landed about the middle of the horse road—he came head foremost down. He fell upon his forehead, and then came down upon him stomach, sq d out his arms and legs ad Dever stirred. I want and the prisoner on ' the shoulder, and said, " Sir, d o you w what you have done! I believe you have killed tt boy. Will you, pee a your name . ids would not, but put himself is a dolma attitude, and said, " You seoundrel, who are you ? If you don't fen back ru serve you the same way." (At this portion of Mr. Potta's evidence, the prisoner, who had hitherto 'manifested no apparent concern, laughed.) I fol lowed the prisoner, and him in eight, and he was afterwards taken into c . The first I saw of it was when the boy was five yards . The boy was running. I did oot know what provocation he had received. I spoke in • very quiet way. He did not strike the boy, but took him as I described. He threw him right up in the air. He did not throw him 15 or 20 feet up. The surgeon's artificate was rad. It stated that the boy had received severe injuries to his head, face, be. From his present symptoms it was impossible to say what the m alt might be. Mr. George Atkinson, surgeon, said he had examined the lad named Franck a few minutes after the accident. He found his head and face very much swollen and bruised; blood was issuing from his nose and mouth, and he com plained very much of his head. He oomroenced and con tinued vomiting blood until that morning, and it had not then stopped. Some of his teeth were knocked out of the upper Jew, and his teeth had been driven into the internal part of his check. This morning be found him partly relieved, but he had not yet been able to retain any food upon his stomach : he was ill, dangerously ill. Mr. Cooper—Have you say reason to anticipate death? Mr. Atkinson—l cannot any. There Is not a t ia .appenr asee of death at present. I consider the princi Injury is concussion of the brain affecting the stomas . I consi der his internal contusions to be the cause of his vomiting blood. ' Mr. Cooper, for the prisoner, mid after the evidence be could not ask the magistrate* to decide the case at but he trusted that they would bear what he had to say on behalf of his client. He had been a lieutenant in the Native Infantry of India, where be had been fur the bid four years in the Indian campaign. When I. the neighbourhood of Luckoow he made the a%uaintaross of Mien Prior, and lie was in Sunderland as har=t ressat, staying in Norfolk-street. Yesterday a Mrs. Lewin and Miss Prior went into the ground opposite, where they had to remonstrate with this lad and others for pulling the trees down. This lad then began to use very shocking language, and followed them so much that they had to go into the house and nom. plain to his client. He went out and got the boy by the neck, and did throw lain, off the kerb-stone into the road las described by Mr. Potts), but not into the air, wither did he strike him. His client instructed him to say that he was as sorry as any man could possibly be, but he never expected that it would result in this serious accident to the boy— that he than shako him. lie felt as much as any per sou could do, and he (Mr. Cooper) trusted the bench would accept Mr. Prior's guarantee, and not look him up. He war willing to make any compensation, or accept anydecision the bench thought proper and right in the matter. Mr. Lewin did not ask him to that it at all. When they heard what th e sur geon said, that the injuries were merely contusions by foll ies on the road, he hoped that in the course of a day or two the lad would he better. Under these circunutances,he trusted the bench would accept bell. The magistrates having consulted declined to take bail. On Monday he was again placed at the her. Mr. Atkinson, surgeon, was again called, and said the lad was much better. He thought he was now out of daner. He would not be able to attend for a week. finsinsby made application to renauld the prisoner fora week. This was ? after some discussion, agreed to by the bench. Mr. Reginald Orton, surgeon, said he attended the boy on Maturday evening, at the request of the friends of the prMowir, and hail concurred in the prescription of Mr. At kinson. He hail seen him that morning, end did not con sider there woe the slightest danger to his life. The greatest amount of injury be could discover was the fracture of one of the teeth, which was loosened. There was an in jury to the cheek by the tooth, and a scrub on the outside of the cheek, as if the boy had slid along after falling. There was no fever. He entertained no doubt whatever that he would recover shortly. Is the ceuree of a week he would be quite able to attend. Mr. Simpson—Do you know he has been vomiting blood! Witmer replied that he had heard so from the medical man and the boy's mother, and he accounted for it from the aireurnstance that he was brought home when his nose end mouth were bleeding, and that he bad swallowed a quantity of blood when laid buck upon his mother's knee, and that be had vomited it up again. He found nu evidence of any injury to the stomach, which would have beau iuthiated by tenderness. The Bench accepted bail for the prisoner's reappearance. MI "JUIRINS" INVOLVED IN 4 ROBBERY. On Monday our load magistrates resumed their inquiry into the circumstance of a somewhat singular case of robbery, which occurred in Maryport a few days ego. It seems that an oil women named Mary Carol, who states herself to be Si years of age, and who has for scene make • pretty good living by begging, ,Maus to oomm man T a d room in Marlborough-street. Cenci appears to havebemnf a miserly disposition, and by scraping to getber and hoarding up the proceeds of her mendicancy, she managed to save something approaching to '2O/. This mosey, which was chiefly in meninges, was of comes an object of no little care and anxiety on the old wo man's part ; aid to pensive it from the hands of the wickedly disposed she kept it in an old purse, which in turn she kept lucked up in a box, the key of which she had attached to her by means of • string or piece of tape. Unable to carry up water to her room, Oarrol employed a girl named Agnes O'Hare, twelve years of age, to do that and other Weird" and the girl's motherocessionally west to the place. The other day the old lady made the unplea sant discovery that, in spite of her vigilance, pares and money had been abstracted from what she had fancied to be their safe hiding-place, and the polka authorities were node acquainted with the dimater. Inspector Mamba soon after wards apprehended the girl O'Hare on suspicion of having committed the robbery, and on being taken to the policesta tion she made • voluntary statement to the effect that she had taken the money and gives it to her mother. Upon this in!ormation Douglas proceeded to the house of the girl's parents, Daniel and Sarah O'Hare, for the purpose of ap prehending them on a charge of receiving the money, know ing it to have been stolen.

(Before Mr. Bodkin, Assistant• Judge.) George Brown, the wholesale plunderer of gee fittings from public-houses, wee put upon his trial this morning, on • third charge, vii. of stealing some gas fixtures the property of John Overend. Mr. Cooper, and Mr. Tindal Atkinson, were the counsel in the mem ; the prisoner was defended by Mr. P. H. Lewis. The prisoner was found guilty on this charge. The th e ft in this internam was committed at the British Queen, in Peedinandsgreet, Hempstead-road. The prisoner went in and called fora glues ale in the tap room, and the bar man forgone reason kept an eye upon him. Having, how ever, to en into the kitchen for a moment, the prisoner took the opportunity afforded by his absence to tear down the gas fittings, which he concealed under his coat and decamped. The barman on his return found the primmer gone, and missing the ps pipes at the same time went after him. Fortunately he caught him and brought him back, when he took the fit tings from under Ilia coat, and asked to be let go. He was, however, given in charge, and about thirty similar clones were then brought against him. He had made this him regular business; and though, as old metal, the worth of the pipes was not considerable, they being mostly tap-room fittings, yet, when fixed awl in use for their required pur pose, they were of coarse as valuable to the owner as if newly put up. In the cane of Mr. Wilby, of the Crown, Winchester-street, the consequences were, as already stated, of a most serious character ; sn explosion took place, 19 persons were injured, and Mr. and Mrs. Wilby were severely burnt, and had their hair scorched. On this case he was acquitted, although it was distinctly sworn that when the prisoner went into the tap-room the gas fittings were there, and that from the time he left until the explosion occurred no one else had entered. The jury, however, adopted the suggestion that, because three hour; bad elapsed, some one else " might " have gone in and stripped down the pipe and got away unnoticed, and ac quitted him. The prisoner pleaded guilty to one charge on Monday, and being convicted on the present, Tho Assistant-Judge said he did not think that, at the time the prisoner committed these thefts, he contemplated the terrible consequences which might result, and which in one instance did ensue unfortunately', from what he did ; but, at the same time, lie must have been well aware of the inflammable nature of gm, and the risk of danger incurred by en escape of it even in a small quantity. The court had power to give two years only, under the statute, on each indictment ; end therefore, feeling it a case in which the w ftralty of the law ought to be inflicted, the sentence be two years on each charge on which the prisoner bad been convicted, and be would therefore undergo four years' hard labour in the Rouse of Correction. The prisoner was formerly barman at the White Lion, Leather-lane, and was known to the police detectives of the G division, one of whom proved, the prisoner when charged with the offence at Mr. Wilby's in August having declared he had not been in London since May, that he saw end spoke to him in Baldwin's-gardens on the 25th of July. (Before Mr. Payne.) Elizabeth GoodAew, 26, wax indicted for stealing a bag containing • variety of articles the property of Emily liaise, sod also for stealing • carpet bag cootainiug 6/ worth of property, belompug to Fli..beth Goodhew. The find named prosecutris resides at Pinner, and while at the Loo don and North-Western station, Euston-square, she lost • bag, and complained to a constable who had noticed the prisoner about the first-class waiting-room. On a subse quent day the prisoner was taken there on another charge, when she had on • dress which bad been in the stolen bag. She gave the name of Goodhew, because she bad in her possession two handkerchiefs marked with that name, and she was also wearing a jacket, which were portions of the contents ef • bag lost at the London-bridge station, and the property of • lady residing at Sittingboome, in Kent, whose name was Goodbew. The jury found her Guilty. She belonged to a gang of thieves hanging about railway stations. Mr. Payne sentenced her to two years' hard labour on each case, the terms to run concurrently. Anne Swatkin, 49, was indicted for stealing an umbrella, the property of Ralph Baines. The prisoner used to go to houses on pretence of inquiring about a situation as domes. tic servant, having previously ascertained that one was wanted, for the purpose of stealing anything she could lay hands upon in the passage. The prosecutor in this ruse lived at 1, Oxfordderrace, Upper Holloway, and the theft was committed precisely in the way stated, the servant having left her alone for a moment while she took her me rge to her ntistrees. The prisoner was found Guilty, and it was proved that she had had four years' penal servitude, besides which there was a great number of other cases against her. Mr. Payne sentenced her to six years' penal servitude. THE POLICE COURTS. MANBION•HOUBE Richard :gamer, a respectabledookiug young man, was yesterday brought before Sir R. W. Carlini, in custody of Morgan, one of the detective police, charged with robbing his employers, Measn. Henry Moses, Levy, and Co., clothiers, Aldgate. The officer stated that in consequence of information he received he watched the premises of the prosecutors on Tuesday evening in csaupany with *drums, another detective, and about seven o'clock the prisoner came out, and they followed him to the steamboat pier at Loudon. bridge, when they observed that he had something in his pocket. They told him they were officers, and asked what he had got about him, and he replied "Some alpaca." Ho then produced a piece containing several yards of that material, and the prisoner was taken into custody. Mulyneux after wards searched his lodging, and found some lining for clothes and several pieces of cloth. Mr. Brewer, the manager of the business for the pro secutors, mid that the prisoner had been in their service for five years as a cutter, and bore a good character, and they always looked upon him as a respectable men until recently, when, in consequence of his suspicion that some thing wrong was going on, he directed the police to koep a watch, and the prisoner WY apprehended under the cimum stances detailed by the officer. He examined the articles produ,vl, and said he had no doubt they were the pro perty of the firm, but there was no private mark, and there fore he could not swear positively to them. Air it. Carden inquired what wages, the prisoner received? Mr. Brewer replied that, as was the custom in all Jewish houses of business, he was only employed five days in the week, and his wages were six shillings • day, he could, how ever, earn more money than that, because be wsa a tailor, and a very good workman, and he made up clothes at his home on his own account. _ . .... _ _ Mir It. Carden mid he was afraid this had something to do with his dishonesty. Heymeared out to have been able to resist the temptation to steal his Diluters' materials to make up garments fur his own euatomera Mr. Brewer said that very probably this was the cam. The prisoner, when called upon to answer the charge, re plied that he had nothing to say. He was guilty, and he wished to have the awe settled at once. Sir It. Cardeu, having consults' with the Lord Mayor, who came upon the bench to form • court in order to deal with the sae summarily, told the prisoner he wan sorry to have to punish • man who appeared to have borne a good character for such a long period, but the offence was a very serious one, and there appeared to be no justification or ex cuse for his dishonesty. lie then sentenced the prisoner to four months' herd labour. BOW-STREET. _ James L. Dpe►, wh‘TdUoti;;switsl on several charges of forgery, was brought up for final examination. The prisoner having obtained o•e genuine hill, mad* • numl,er of copies which he disposed of in different direc tions, awl which on coining due were presented, and were then discovered to he forgenes. Some further evidence wee giveu, involving no additional fact of a material ch►racter, awl Mr. Mullins applied for hie committal. He was accordingly committed fur trial, and was removed to Newgate by the officer who hail brought him on a habeas corpus from that prison, whenilbe is awaiting his trial on another charge. EXTINITATINO CINCCIIBTANCRIL The exten uating circumstances a the French law court, are very difficult of comprehension here. A peasant named /touches, of St. Martin Longman, has been tried by the Court of Mairea of the Otee for the murder of his wife. In the evening of the 17th of July last, the woman having scolded him for having, during her Arlene', gone out, and left the door of their cottage unfasteiied, lie.becareelpwatly irritated, and declared that lie would kill her if she did not bold her tongue ; she, however, persisted, and he took down his gun. In greet alarm she rushed out of the house, but he fired, and the charge struck her in the back. She fell, bathed in blood, but attempted to rise, and then he cried out," Ah, tou wretch, I will finish you now," and he rai se d is gun fire the second barrel at her ; but at this moment some neighbour. rushed in and secured him. The woman lin gered until the Nth of August, and then expired. She re lated the preceding particulars, and added that on three previous occasions the mon had attempted to munler her, but that she had escaped frum him. The prisoner himself admitted that for ten years be had been contemplating killing his wife. Nevertheless, the jury declared that, though he was guilty, there were extenuating circumstances in his favour, and the court condemned bun to Myers' hard Wolter.

CORN.—Rosrox, Sen. 12. —Weather tine in this district. Harvest operations are going on freely. We have had a fair show of wheat at market to-day, which met a slow sale at 7s. to 3s. decline on the week. In spring corn little or nothing doing. The few samples of new wheat and rata which earns to hand to-day were of an inferior quality and out of condition. Elroccrom•os.Taas, San. 12.—With the exception of Saturday the weather has been favourable for harvest opera tions which are now going on. The imports for the past week are fair. The farmers supply of wheat this morning was larger than for many weeks past, for which there was a slow sale at a decline of 2s. to 3a. per qr. on last week's prices. In barley, oats, and beans there is no quotable variation. The price of flour has been reduced to 465. per sack net Imports during the past week : Wheat, coastwise, 440 qrs.; foreign, 1,240. Oats, coast wise, 620. CLAN:it:ow, Sere 12.—The weather continues fine. Sup plies moderate.

CATTLE—WILTON GREAT Sucre, HORSE, AND CATTLE Pam—This fair, which is one of the largest in the West of England, wan held to-day, and the supply of sheep num bered more than for many years past, and the quality and condition of the stock on sale was far superior to that at the late Britton!. There was also a very full attendance of buyers. At the early part of the morning the quotations of late fain were asked, but purchasers being unwilling to secede to those terms, bulginess was extremely dull for a time, when ultimately prices gave way, and a somewhat restricted trade was done at a reduction of tie. to Bs. per head below the prices obtained at Britford, and a very large number remained unsold, farmers refusing the reduced prices offered. Prime ranged for ewes, from 325. to 445. ; wetbers, 38e. to 48s. ; lambs, 84e. to 38e. There were some few choice lots selling at lower rates. There was a moderately good trade doing both in selling and letting of rams. There was an average supply of lean stock of cattle, but prkes generally were considerably lower and not much business was done. In the horse fair there was a good sprinkling, but prime hones were scarce and but abraded number of sales were effected. Agricultural implements of all descriptions were liberally supplied and we hear a fair trade was done. SOUTHALL.

IMPORT MARILICT. --A gemenic Lauer ho prevailed in our market during the whole of the last fortnight, and truoisactions, both in piece Mods and yams, have been moderate, at cottinially lower rates. Buyers sire very cautious in their purchase., not only became the demand limited but also on account of the great disposition of im porters to realise. The future prospects of the market do not promise auy immediate improvement in prime. Metals are very dull, at lower and almost nominal rates. Ex rowre.—lndigo.- • In lower Bengal generally rains have been heavy, which has reduced produce, but has not done much damage to the growing plant. Fortunately the rivers have continued much lower than usual, owing to the scanti ness of the rains to the north-west. In the districts where the ryots hey° been encouraged to resist, this has acted favourably, giving time to government to retrace their stern. The mischief done, however, is immense, the ryots having gone en far as to cut and throw their plant into the river. All other labourers are following the example set them, carter* and coolies repudiating their eugagemente at the time whcu they are absolutely necessary to the planter. There is on remedy at law, courts are distant, proceedings dilatory, and the indigo plant ripe and rotting on the ground. Jute.—ln this article there has been a large business dote during the past fortnight, and in spite of the had accounts received from the home market, for the better sorts, which are very scarce, prices are fully maintained, and in one or two amen an advance .4 2to 3 annex per md. has been paid ; middling and inferior qualities are sold freely at previous quotations. Notwithstanding unfavour able accounts from England prices are fully maintained here, owing to paucity of stocks end very small arrivals. Raw Silk.—The market is quieter, owing to discouraging accounts received from Leaden ; at the lame time, the quality of the silk in the market now is not very desirable. Prices are not lower. Salk Piece Goods.—Corahs : Market continues very quiet, and 'Daubing doing in this article. No sale+ to report, and so alteration in the prices. The stocks are materially redneed, and of inferior quality. Itios.—No heavy transactions have taken place since our last advice*, few inquiries are made, and holders are dis posed to effect Pales at • lower rate, pending is reduction in the rates of freight. Oil Seeds.--Linseed : Supplies now come in more freely, and pines of uncleaned are somewhat easier. We do not, however, quote any decline in the bazaar, as there is a pretty lively business earned on for England ; but with the unfavourable accounts from home, the upward tendency of freight., and further large supplies expected, we may ma sonailly expect lower prices to rule before long. Rape seed supplies begin to come in more freely, and as there is little denucel, present prices, 2-14 to 3-0, being considered tee high, stocks will accumulate, and holders must lower their demand'.

The amount of business transacted at Canton during the isist fortnight, although not large, is apparently healthy, and may he accepted as the harbinger of a better state of things. The demand for cotton has improved nail, about 10,00 U bales have been *old at prima currant last with the exception of the common kinds, which are somewhat lower. About 500 Dike of yarn cow prised the transactions in this staple. Some par wls have, however, been given in hatter. The demand fur cotton piece goods appears reviving. The tea market ha. fairly opened, said a large business has been done. The arrivals of Conon amount to Ito chops, of which 56 chops have been taken at prices ranging from Tla. 27 to 36, leaving '24 chops in stock.
