move on. He then had the bruises on his face, and
blood was flowing from them. (The braises appeared fresh

SOUTH WARN.
Willies's Potter, a greengrocer, in Losg-lane, Barmaid-
aey, was charged with committing a violent assault upon
MO Ann, his wife, a young woman about 25 years of age, 1
whose faceiwas covered with bruises, arid wbo appeared to be
suffering severely from her husband's violence. They badinage
married, she said, about seven mouths, and she wee now
far advanced in pregnancy. On Wednesday nighty after
they closed the shop, she went out for a walk with bar hus-
band to see the people return from Epsom, and as they
came back she went into a shop to make • purchase, key-
ing her husband outside. She was detained longer than she
expected in the shop, and upon coming out her husband
abused her and knocked her down in the street. When
they reached home he again struck her over the head and
body with his Cute, and also with a tin can ; and she be-
lieved he would have murdered her had not her mother
opine into the room and interfered to protect her. The
complainant added that she had been beaten seven or eight
times by her husband, the first time only a month after
marriage. This statement was confirmed by her mother,
who, however, acknowledged that her daughter was of a
raybivnicpent emper, and sometimes threw Skop at her

THANES.

Thomas Rerell, aged 30, and Prederiek Morris, 25, de-
method as hawkers, were charged with breaking into the
premises of Mr. John Phillips, of Ernest-street, Stepney,
and steeling therefrom two sewing machines, a quantity of
shirt fittings, and other property, value 1301.
The prosecutor having oind to his premises being
broken into and the property being stolen on the
29th of May last, it was proved by two girls
named Jane Leggett and Jane Johnson, who re-
sided near the prosecutor, that between 10 and 11 o'clock
on the night of the 29th May, they bad men the members
enter the house and bring oat the sewing machines, which
they placed is a oart end married sway. They enbeertosstly
identified the horse and cart at the Mahlon of Mr.
Charles Berry, a ash mister, who had undoubtedly let oat
the said bone and cart to the prisosers on the night in
question. It was, however, proved by several witonses,
strangers to the priaooera, that on the night of the 20th
nit. they were with this hone and cart in Maeou.street,
Old Kent-road, at the hour mentioned by the girls, and
remained there the whole evening selling trinkets sad
jewellery. These witnemes stated that they clime forward
for the sole purpose of furthering the ends of justice.
The prisoners whimpered a good deal during Use exami-
nation, and complained very much of hating been in cus-
tody for a week upon so unfounded a charge. A. pre-
vious conviction for felony was, however, proved against
RevelL

i7Woolrych was not quite satisfied with tbe alibi eat
up, as it all depended upon the particular day stated. He
should widths oase, therefore, before a jury bat would re-
mand the prisoners Apia for a week that the deposilitue
might be prepared.

To-day's import is 599 base.

COTTON 000D8.—MANcazirrn, Jura 7.—Tbe yarn
market opened dearer this week for all kinds, and in some
instances sales were made at an advance of ied per lb.
Araoupt other kinds Bolton 60's commanded attention at
the advance, and the home trade were buyers of various
counts of cop yarns. The chief business, however, was for
India, owing to better accounts to hand in anticipation of
the coming snail. Yesterday and this morning these hes
also been a fair deemed for yarns, especially such as Gen be
obtained of American cotton, and the market has been
pretty well cleared of inch goods at entrap)* prime. lu
some CMS sellers 'masking a further rise of id per lb.
The large business dune on Tuesday in cloths for India was
due toadvices of an advance in Oalatta (up to )(ay 18th)
of lid. to 4id. per piece for ahirtinp. It was sufficient
to clear off some large stocks belonging to manufacturers
which they, have held rather uneasily owing to their undue
aecumulation. There is less doing in these goods (40-inch
skirtings, inadapolLuns, jaccomets, and other light fabrics
, for India) towards the clues of the week, because merchasts
are expecting letters by the overland mail, but the sake
have been a relief to the market, and a good many manu-
facturers breathe more freely. Longcloths, T-clotha, acid
domestics, are a good deal neglected still, but the market
closes very firm.

WOOLLEN.—Les, JUNI 7.—Very few buyers have
visited the Leeds warehouses this week, and the purchases
made have been by no means important. 8o far as the
general trade is concerned, there has bees leu activity than
is usual immediately before Whitsuntide. After Whitsun-
tide it is always expected that a dull trade will ensue for a
short period. Amongst one or two of the first dam houses,
however we believe a considerable trade in plain black all
wool cloths is being transacted ; indeed for some time put
there have been unmistakeable evidences of a revival in

this lag -dormant but moat importaatbranch of
woollen trade. This improvement, no doubt, is in great
measure attributable to the high state of a:cellists (so
admirsblillustrated in SOWS of the Leeds stalls of the
" Great Exhibition ") to which some of our manufacturers
pare attained, both with regard to the make sad Ilaisb
of their plain cloths. The Chum trade is very brisk, some
very extensive orders being in course of execution for that
market.

HABDWARll.—BrantrOgam, JUNE 7.—The reports re-
lative to the state of trade in this town are more unfavour-
able than they were a week ago. There an comparatively
few orders coming in from any quarter ; from the &grin'.
tarsi &Arleta they are as much below the average se from
Lancsahire, where so powerful a cause is operating to put a
stop to all ordinary business transactions. The foreign
orders in are small, as the Spanish is the only branch of the
continental trade which is tip to the avenge ; with South
American there is not much doing, but the last &driers'
received here were more favourable. The Spanish and
West Indian trade is pretty good, but on the aggregate the
merchants here are doing less than they were a month
ago. lu refereese to particular branches of our trades
there is little to be said, bemuse it is so general :
the tube-makers, who have had a good run of
orders for some time, report business quieter in that
branch ; at the wire-mills there is rather more activity,'
but it is principally in brass and copper wire. The button
trade is in a bad state, and the edge tool makers report basi-
-1 ness in that branch quieter than it has been for a long time.
Of the state of many other branches much the same might
be said, the fact being that trade is completely destitute of
the slightest animatioe. In the adjoining district trade is
a little better; there is rather more doing at the foundries ;
the chain makers have more orders is, and in railway lit-
time there is • steady trade. The saddlers ironmongery of
Walsall have a few fresh order in on account ofbsEfort
bade. The iron trade in this locality has not c for
many weeks past; the makers of the favourite have
just sufficient omen to keep their works going, ant such of
them as have an American connexion are rather busier than
they were at quarterday ; but the second-clam makers ere
doing a very moderate trade, and the turn of the market is
in favour of the buyer. The return of pauperism for this
parish for the past week shows that the number of in-door
paupers is MS more than it was last year; of out-door poor
there is en imams of 1,684.

CORN.—Casinirpon, JONI 7.—We had a very doll
market without any change in price from last week.

peens sail the hay crops—bat too muck, esrtaialy, for the
proper working of the turnip lands ; so that, meantime
them operations areat a *mania Al oar country

cient to take of all grain that offers at mere mosey than
