Rolert Templemon, on bail, was charged with
criminally assaulting Jane Elizabeth Warr, at Ha!stook,
on the 20th marsh last. Mr. rooks prosecuted, and
Mr. Collier, Q.C., and Mr. Kingdon defended the
prisoner, who is a farmer residing at Ha'stock, and the
prosecutrix, a little girl 14 years old, was in his ser-
vice. Jane Elizabeth Warr said: I was 14 years
of age last November. I have lost my father and
mother for the last 4 years. On the 29th March last I
was living with the prisoner as maid-of-all-work. I
had lived on the same farm before. On the 16th of
March my mistress left home, and while she was away I
was at home alone with my master. She came home on.
the 26th March. On the 20th my master was
from home all the evening, and came home about
1 o'clock. I sat up for him, but on his coining
I went to bed. After I hat been in bed half-an-hour
my master Came into my bedroom. I was going to get
out of bed, and he pulled me back. I tried to get away,
but he would not let me. I cried and screeched, and
he said he would not hurt me. I said I would tell my
mistress, and he told me if I spoke to her or anyone else
he would break my neck. He was undressed when
he came into the room. From the threats of the pri-
soner I was afraid to tell my mistress when she come
home. She subsequently looked over the dirty linen to
be sent to the wash, and on examining my bed clothes,
she accused me of improper conduct. lat first denied
it, but on being pressed for a reply, 1 stated all that
had taken place. I was then dismissed her service, and
went to Fanny Abbott, to whom I told all that had oc-
ourred.—Aoquitted.

LAW AND CRIIKE.

The Rev. H. S. Fletcher, of Bilston Bank notoriety,
has been sentenrod to two years' confinement in the
common gaol, with hard labour. Public opinion in the
quarter mards tue punishment as too light, and uni-
versal surprise, we are told, was expressed throughout
the court, on Tuesday, when sentence was passed, that
the full penalty which the law has provided for such en
offence, via., three years' penal servitude, was not
awarded. The ends of justice may, however, be quite
as adequately met by the decision which Mr. Baron
Blackburn has thought proper to pronounce.

D/ROOVRRY OP A CORAL EIRD.—An interesting and
valuable dismvery was made a few days ago of a coral
bed in the straits of Freed. It first became known
eacidentally to a Sicilian dealer in coral, named Michele
Criscuolo, who was presented with some fine pieces for
sale by a fisherman from Gozo. The fisherman was
quite ignorant of the value and importance of the
discovery. Ciiscuolo offered him two seadi (3s. 4d.)
ta-day to fish for him, to which the man very readily
agreed. The success was beyond all expectation. In a
few days upwards of £2OO worth of the light pink coral
so much esteemed now-a-days was brought up, and
()risottolo appeared in a fair way of making a rapid
fortune. So grand a discovery could not, however, be
lonic kept secret, and in a few days as many as 40 boats
are said to have collected on the spot, and tried their
fortune with varied success. The bed lies at a depth
of about 80 fethems, and is situate at about a quarter
of a mile off the Goso shore. We understand the
Chamber of Commerce hail written to the Government
calling neon it to take steps for putting a temporary
stop to the fishing tmtil regulations be made to prevent
the needless destruction or the coral by inexperienced
persons, in order that the greatest possible profit might
accrue from it to the publie It is reported that this
coral bed was known in the time of the Grand Master
Vint°, but the coral being of a pink wolour, it was not
considered of any value, the deep-red being at that
time preferred. Her Majesty's ship Medina, it is said,
will proceed on Monday to examine the locality.—

The exhibitors in the Great International Exhibition,
or, at all events, a portion of them are very far from
being eatistled with the decision of the jurors. One
gentleman who was of opinion that he was entitled to
a medal, but who had only received "honourable men-
tion," exhibited a card upon his case stating his opinion
—with more freedom than discretion, perhaps—of the
decision. The Commissioners ordered a body of sappers
to cover up the ease with packing sheet, whit& waa at
once done, and the reedoitrant exhibitor was accordingly

FORDINGBEIDGE. TER Lyra Mumma.—
Some special inquiry is about to be made as to the
grounds on which Gilbert, the Fordingbridge mur-
derer, obtained his ticket of leave. He had been
convicted of burglary and highway robbery, and
tried also for attempted ripe, before the murder.
He returned to Fordingbridge as he left it, a sullen
and ignorant man- He lived close to Fordingbridge
church, and was not driven to desperation through
want, and yet ht wandered about the fields on Sun-
days, designing for a long time rape and murder.
His having been let loose will prevent ticket-of-
leave men really deserving of compensation from
receiving it, for they will be refused work on pur-
pose' to drive them from a neighbourhood. It is
singular that almost invariably when Miss Hall
went to church by herself, some one of the family
stood near her house and watched her peas the dark
gully, but on the day of the murder, by the merest
accident. this was not done. Every Sunday, also,
one of her father's workmen had to go to a water
meadow, and used to return by the gully shout the
time of the murder, but on the day the latter took
place he met with a neighbour at the meadow, and
returned by a different route to gossip. Gilbert was
one or those who carried the body of his
victim from the gully to her father's house.
The clergyman, churchwarden, and other gentle-
men were at Mr. Hall's, to sympathise with
him in ills dreadful calamity. In conjecturing
who could be the murderer they soon suspected
Gilbert, and while doing so they looked at him
through the wincloWhe, With others, being outside.
An acquaintance of his said to him, "DO you see the
gentlemen leoking at you? You will he locked up
to night"- He replied, morosely, "I suppose I
shall.* The only f wtion of Miss Hill's father's

BALIELBI7RY.—Mosniy.

The commission for holding the wises for the county
of Wilts was opened in this city on Saturday evening
by Mr. Justice Keating: Yesterday the learned judges
attended Divine service in the cathedral.
This morning Mr. Justice Williams took his seat in
the Crown Court, and Mr. Justine Keating sat at Nisi
Prins. There were only 14 prisoners for trial, but
there were wino civil oases, rather a large number for
this county. The criminal offences are very slight.
James Dangereeld was indicted for maliciously
wounding his wife with intent to murder her.
Mr. Swayne was counsel for the prosecution.
As the wife was too ill to come to the wines her de-
position was real, and from that it appeared that on
the 14th of June, about 6in the morning, she got up
and went downstairs, and then she hung some clothes
out to dry. She then went into the kitchen, and was
kneeling down taking up the ashes when the prisoner
came down and began to abuse her and call her bad
names. She got up, having the poker in her hand, and
told him he had better not call her those names again,
or he should have something, and she called him • nasty,
stinking, old blackguard. The prisoner then went
Into the garden, and she went on with her work. He
setumed in a short time and began cursing her and
striking her on the bead with a grafting tool until she
became insensible. When she came to herself she
found that her aria was broken and that her head was
bleeding. The prianner was at that time cutting her
throat.. The woman was for sonui time in danger.
. . . . . . .

The jury found the prisoner Chitty with intent to do
grievous bodily harm, and sentenced him to 18 months'
imprisonment with bard labour.
Robert Goodfellow was indicted for maliciously
wounding his wife, Mary Anelleerifeßow, at Pinkerton
Anger, on the 7th of April. with intent to maim her,

_ • . - - - • - - •

The prisoner was • sailor. On the 10th Of March the
wife, with the sanction of the prisoner, obtained a situa-
tion as nurse at Dr. Finch's lunatic asylum, near
Salisbury. On the 6th of April the prisoner called upon
her at the ssylum, and she went to him at the Victoria
Anna about 6 o'clock in the evening end remained with
him till 9 o'clock. She then retnrned to the asylum.
The neatanening the wife again spent the evening with
her husband, and took leave of him at the Victoria
Arms at 9 o'clock, and started for the asylum. When
abs got within 20 yards of the door the prisoner came
up and asked her if elm wanted any money. She said
she did not. He then put his hand into his pocket,
laid hold of her dress with his left hand, and struck her
in the grain with his right hand. She ran into the
asylum and it wa• then found that she had been
stabbed.

The.. prisoner was found Guilty of unlawfully

wounding,
The wife recommended him to merey, and he was
Rentenoed to three months' imprisonment with hard
labour.

SWINDON. —ELOMMENT OF A CLERGYMAN.—
Much excitement has been caused throughout the
the county of Wilts during the last few days,in con-
sequence of the sudden diaappearanoe of a rev. gen-
tleman,well known throughout the district in which
he resides, and also by the flight with him of a, per.
son living in the same neighbourhood. A village in
the immediate vicinity of this town is the scene of
the elopement. What renders the circumstanee
I more painful than it otherwise would have been is
I the fact that the person whom the rev. gentleman
has taken with him is a married woman, and prior'
I to entering into the matrimonial state she lived in
the'hause of her rev, admirer as lady's maid. WA
are not certain whether the rev. gentleman hinisa
is married; but rumour states that he is. lit is mid'
.that before the elopement the rev, gentleman, wheat:

out at the Stock-Exchange, and that the proceeds:
realised some thousands of pounds, which the Rte.

ALDBOURNE. FIRST COITTICTIOOS unorat TEI
OMAR Is COSH OIL RILATITZ TO VIZ REMOVAL
OF Samar nr —Mr. James Langford,
farmer, of Hungerford, was summoned before the
MarllMrough county magistrates for having removed
oertain sheep to Aldbomne, without having a mit&
oats from the inspector. This was the first 'amnions
that has been taken out mince the order in conned'
has been issued, which, it will be remembered, took
place at the time the disease was raging amongst the
sheep in Wiltshire. It appeared that on the 3rd of
November Mr. Langford's bailiff sent a flock of sheep,
in the charge of a roan. throngh Aldbourne, arid on
the fact being communicated to the police, inquiries
were instituted which lei to the =rumens being
issued. The facts were not disputed by Mr.
Langford, who, however, urged in defence thet all
that had been done had been in ignorance. Had the
certificate been obtained from Mr. Duck, of mumethe
law would not have been infringed. As this was
the first case that had occurred in the county, and
as the defendant did not appear to have wilfully
broken the law, the magistrates inflicted a fine of
10s. only, and 10s. costs. Mr. Baverstoct, of
Chilton Foliatt, farmer, was summoned for a like
offence, on the 6th of November. In this ease there
was this difference: that the sheep had been turned
out into a field to feed on some modes, and the man
in charge was not aware that the field was in the
pariah of Aldbourne. The defendant WAS fined Is.
only, and costa.

per cwt. This improvement, however, was only tem-
porary, for to-day the sales passed off flatly, and the
rise was partly lost. The coffee market is dull and un-
settled, with smaller transactions than for sometime
past. Rios remains inactive, and prioes have a down.
ward tendency. The spice sales are without any de-
cided change. The came trade is quiet, and lower
qualities have been disposed of at • reduction. At the
public sales common green teas were taken freely at
lower rates, while other descriptions supported their
previous value. Moning congou is selling upon slightly
higher herein.

The following song is said to have been taken from
one of "Jebb's lambs," on his way back to the fold, it
being a favourite just now at jovial Jebbite meetings.

But now I weaves my webb, and looks out for a fly ;
Leastways, roe and warner, we waits in A dark corner,
Like the chap by name of Horner, as eat • apple pie.
Up comes a quiet bloke, a having of his smoke,
Or a thinking of a joke, as he toddles home to bed ;
We takes him by the neck so neat, be can't no ways

And hugs him quite affectionate, and pats him on
the head.
Its all serene in course, for there an't none of the

As would give us any sorce for such a ordinary

Or, if we comes to grief, why we only comes to beef,
For lodgin' like a thief, my boys, is lodgin' like a

CHRISTMAS-PAST AND PRESENT.

-

The following lines are said to have been written by
a poor unlucky wight, who was in "durance vile" for
debt.
In times far back my Christmas fare
Was turkey and a ehine,
A pudding made of things moat rare.
And plenty of good wine.
When poorer grown, I still could dine
On goose and roasted pig,
A glass of grog, instead of wine,
And dazed the merry jig.
When times grew worse my Christmas fare
Was beef and pudding plain,
A pot of beer in lien of grog;
Nor did I then complain.
Bet now my mirth is turned to grief,
For Chi istmes day is near,
No pudding, turkey, chine nor beef,
No wine, no grog, no beer.
The fates have been to me, oh dear!
Unkind, unjust, and cruel,
For now I am doomed, instead of beer,
To swallow water.gruel.

Barley: Trade not brisk; value equal to Monday.
Oats a rather better trade, at the full quotations of
Monday for fine corn; inferior neglected. Beans and
peas without change. Seeds: Linseed and rapeseed
firm. Tares, cloverseed, and trefoil not much doing.
Other seeds dull. Floating cargoes: A rather better
trade, at a alight improvement.

CATTLE MARKETS.

Airmen:m.lTel% Thunday.-The supply of beasts is
short; the choicest descriptions find purchasers at
Monday's quotations, but the trade generally is dull.
There is scattely any demand for sheep; the small
asinber on offer cannot all be disposed of. The best
descriptions are making about the same as on Monday.
Trade is very heavy for calves. From Germany and
Holland there are 199 beasts, 410 sheep, and 137
calves. Spain, 100 beasts. Mil& cows, 85. Beasts at
market, 965; sheep and lambs, 2,460; calves, 181;
pigs, 140.
NVIDATI AND LNADINHALL, Friday.-Average sup-
plies of meet are on sale. Generally speaking the trade
rake steady, as follows :-Inferior bed, 2s. Bd. to 3s. •
middling ditto, 3s. 2d. to 3e. 6d.; prime small ditto, 4s:
to 4s. 2d.; large pork, 3s. Bd. to 4s. 4d. • inferior
mutton, 3a. 6d. to 3s. Bd. • middling ditto, is. 101, to

48.-64. • small pork, 4s. 6d. to 43. 106.
Bsairca., Thursday.-There was a very fell supply of
bed, consisting of some excellent heavy beasts, both
Yhorne and Irish, but the sale was slow, and a large
number remained unsold. The quantity of mutton was
not so large as last week, but there was quite sufficient
to meet the demand. It was of an average quality;
the sale was heavy, and the quotations remained sta.
tionary. The supply of fat pigs was large, but the sale
was not brisk, and Aratrate porkers could not reach
10s. per score. A farmer from the neighbourhood of
Pensford had an excellent lot of fat pigs, but, failing to
obtain 10s. per score, they were all cent back. There
was about the usual number of store ptgs, but not much
business was done.

THE ATTENTION OE ALL SYMPATHISING
FRIENDS IS EARNESTLY CALLED TO THE
FOLLOWING HEARTRENDING APPEAL
FROM POOR OLD DAME CHRONICLE.

Pity the sorrows of an old woman,
Whose circulations waxing very low,
Who tho' she bears her griefs like a Roman,
Still staggers from a heavy cruel blow.
There was • time when she had all the sway,
And there were none who dared a harsh Express'ion ;
But now, alas I has passed that happy day,
And she with tears doth make this sad confession.
There's that Express and naughty Telegram.
Who vex her sorely, end disturb her rest;
Who say her finest sayings are all sham,
And all her doings but a bore at best.
Her little boys, who were so good of yore,
Now run the streets a-carrying their shoes,
Instead of seeing what they can do more
To Chronicle for her all the best news.
For they stay out, and drunk do get at night,
And then kick up a row, and also swear,
So that policeman X, when be does right,
Mast bring them up before the Borough Mayor.
In vain she pray, they will be more discreet,
She's got no old they only laugh and smile,
They will pursue their games all in the street,
Altho' they know to her 'tin such • trial.
Some naughty rascals talk of her poor feet,
And ask her how they are, and all such stuff;
She feels there is, alas! In them no heat,
The circulations gone now safe enough.
And there'aspasmodic feelings in her heart,
And she is fearful of her dissolution •
She once had all, but now she has but part,
'Tis that so rack and tears her constitution.
Her days I fear are drawing to • close,
For every week she feels her strength decline;
She feels that 'tis the heaviest of woes,
That she must soon her very life resign.
Oh! pity, tinge, her sorrows, dearest friends,
And do defend her while she [sojourns here;
Skis soon will mach the saddest of sad ends,
And but a sorry skeleton appear.

Court anti yaisij Life.

His Royal Highness the Prince of Wales, attended by
his suite, arrived at Dover on Wednesday in the Govern-
ment yactli Vivid from Calais, under a Royal salute
from the butteries on the Heights. A guard of honour
of the Royal Artillery were drawn up along the
Admiralty pier, which was lined with spectators.
After partaking of refreshment,, his Royal Highness
oantinued his journey to Windsor by the South Wes-
tern Railway.
The Greeks of Liverpool, like the Greeks of Athens,
have been bolding a deanonstration iii favour of Prince
Alfred. In supporting a resolution, which said it was
the firm conviction of the meeting that the election of
Prince Alfred, of England, to the throne of Greece
would be the surest guarantee for the future happi-
ness of their country, one speaker said, " It is evident
that such a choice is based, not upon personal qualifi-
cations alone, but on principles. In seeking to obtain
Prince Alfred for our King, we are not actuated by the
individual merits of the young Prince, because little can
be known to our countrymen of his personal qualifi-
cation& But it is enough for us to know that lie has
been brought up in the midst of a free and great people;
that be is the son of a Queen whose name is become a
synonym for freedom and virtue, end of a Prince
whose stainless purity of life made him as truly the
type of the perfect husband and father as he was of the
Prince, in his wide and liberal patronage of art, and his
sympathy with every charitable scheme that could help
the progress of mankind, and amelioratetheir social
condition. Is it too much to hope that the son of such ,
august parents will inherit their virtues and trans-
plant to the soil of Greece the great tree of British
freedom and independence' In choosing an English
Prince for our King we do not expect, as many think,
to be backed by England in enlarging the frontiers of
our country. What we want is England's moral in-
fluence to help us in establishing self-government, and
to put free Greece into • position for becoming some
iay the centre of civiliaation in the East, and by spread-
ing her comforting influences to our oppressed brethren
to enable them, by the help of the Almighty, Ito regain
their freedom."

THE MARRIAGE OP THE PRINCE or WALEB.-It has
been arranged that the marriage of his Royal Highness
the Prince of Wales with the Princess Alexandra of
Denmark, shall be solemnised at St. George's Chapel,
Windsor. and not, according to precedent, at the Chapel
Royal, St. James's. The Lord Chamberlain has received
Her Majesty's commands that the ceremony shall be
celebrated with the utmost magnificence. The House-
hold of the future Princess of Wales will comprise the
Marchioness of Carmarthen, the Countess of Maccles-
field, the Countess of Morton, and the Countess De
Grey, as Ladies in Waiting. Lord Harris will be at the
head of the Household of the Princess.—Times.

The Prince of Wales remains at Osborne with the
Queen until after the arrival of his brother Prince
Alfred, who is expected in England in the course of the
present month. Shortly after his arrival the Prince of
Wales will carry out the plan laid down for him in
completion of his education by the Queen and his
deeply-lamented father, of making a tour in the Holy
Land and the other historical lecalitiee of the East. It
had been intended that his Royal Highness should have
set out upon this expedition towards the end of last
year; and as the journeys in the East can only be per-
formed during the cooler months of the year the Queen
has decided that the wishes and arrangements of the
Prince Consort, which are considered sacred by the
Queen and the Prince of Wales, should shortly be
carried into execution. The Prince will necessarily
travel in the most private manner.

WRAF SORT OF ANIKAL IS A SCOTCHWAN
When he travelled on the Continent he was some-
times asked, 'You are an Englishman, of °purse ?'
No, lam • &Outman,' he answered. He never
admitted that he Was an Englishman (laughter): On
the Continent the Englishman had such a bad character
(laughter), partly from their pride, formality, and
conceit,—party from their gross ignorance and stupidity
(laughter.) They were so much hated that he always
found himself on the right hand of the host when he
was a countryman of Walter Scott and Burns. He
next reviewed the peculiarities of the Scottish character,
asking what sort of animal the Scoteliman really was!
He bad found out eight points in which the peculiarity
of the animal Scotus consisted The Soot was
essentially • working animal; 2nd. The Scot was an
enterprising and adventurous animal; 3rd. The Scot
was • thinking and philosophical ; 4th. The
Scot was • practical and utilitarian animal—he knew
what was before his nose, and he knew where he vu
going to strike (laughter) ; sth. The Scot was a sure
and eautious animal (laughter); 6th. The Scot was
an earnest, serious, devout, and religions animal
(laughter) ; ith. The Scot was a fervid, impassioned,
and poetical animal (laughter)—perfereithisit nepotism
&uremia ; and the Bth. As this audience seemed all
to prove, the Soot was • humorous, and atoneable, and
amusing animal (laughter and applause)—he was a jolly
animal, not at all the grim, grave man of iron and
wire that Mr. Buckle seemed. to think."—Pro/ewer
Mackie at Glasgow. —[The worthy professor evidently
thinks "no small beer," to use • common expression,
of his countrymen.]
