ASSIZE INTELLIGENCE.

NORFOLK CEROMT.:—CAMBRIDOE, MARCH 15.
Her Malimey's judges of assize came here from Hunting-
don yerterday, and the commission was opened in due
course. There is not a cause for trial, and the calendar
contains the namss of 1g prieoaers.
Mr. Baron Martin sat in the crown court this morning.
From the opening of the court this morning it was densely
crowded in all parts by memben of the university, &c., to
bear the trial of

James Francis Erriwjton Barney aged 21, described in ,
the calendar as a gentleman, who was charged with obtaining
by false pretences a gold ring from Mr. Peters, the well-
known silveninith, of Canibnd
Mr. Markby prosecuted ; Mr. Orridge defended the
Teske primmer, at the time the offence was eimunitted,
was an undergraduate of Peter•house Calks% and
It Mom the opening rtatemeat et the
for the prosecution that !in the year IBM
he was first entered at that college. Subsequently be
took his name off and went to prepare for the cavil 11/IWied
examinatioa. In November of last year he again changed
bisiSairisitand rationed to his old callswe, bringing with him
the bestimouials, from the tutors with whom
be bees reading. During his first residence be halm
abased about 12/. worth of articles of je
at Peen's, which bad sever been paid fo.rrall.
it was distinctly understood that no farther credit was
to be given him. Shortly after his mtura in November last
he went in him cap and gown to the shop of Mr. Peters, and
selected a ring of the value of 41. 10s., and the ebopmaa,
who had no knowledge of him personally, asked him, as be
did not then pay for the attics* for his same and college.
Upon this he wrote on • pion of pparppeerr handed tc him for
the purpose, "J. Barnes, " The shopmea
dewed to his superior, and he was allowed to take the ring,
ft being then fatly believed that he was Mr. Hama, of Pem-
broke College. Mr. Peters sad his showman were sidled
and said, under no circumstances would he have
been allowed to have the ring on credit had
they known be was Barnes, of Peterhoues. It
also appeared in evidence that within a few hours of
obtaining the ring he sold it to a man of the name of Tar-
rant, who in his torn parted with it, and after peering
through several hands it was takes is January last by an
intending pumliamer to Peters's shop to have its value weer-
Mined. Then it was 111111111d16547 recognised, and inquiries
were made which led to the appreheniose of the ramose?.
It should be mentioned that wields a few days of the ring
being obtained Barnes was sent away from colleges bat, as
the tutor explained, for matters quite unooonected with
this affair.
Mr. Orridge, in his address to the jury whilst admitting
that the ring had been obtained fraudtilently, said there
were good grounds for the belief that the prisoner never in-
tended to defraud the prosecutor. The fast that men par.
chased goods oe credit and disposed of them soon after to
Tenant for ready money was well known, and although
they were obtained on credit, there was every prospect of
the tradesman being paid. In this owe Mr. Barnes intended
to give in this debt to his father with others he had in-
=red, and Mr. Peters would bays been paid.
Mr. Baron Martin summed op, and told the jury if they
believed the prisoner had obtained the ring upon the faith
of his beingllarne, of Poniseeks• *um supposing there
might be a notion in his own Naiad that he would one day
pay for it, there was sorb an obtaining as wet inteoded by
the act of parliament, and they most eoovict the prisoner.
' The jury almost immedistel7 rebutted • verdict of Guilty.
' and the. learned judge in feeling terms spoke of the misery
the prisoner's conduct most entail upon his family and
and told him in his opinion the jury had so alter-
native than to return the verdict they had given. lie then
sentenced hint to be imprisoned for one fortaight.

ATTEMPT TO POISON A WWI AT lODDLROBBO.

Richard Buckle, 36, was charged with feloniously admi
Dietaries one ounce of laudanum to Jane Buckle, hie
wife, with intent to murder her, at Middlesbro', on the
26th of June last.
Mr. Blanchard and Mr. Berle prosecuted ; Mr. Mazda de-
fended the prisoner.
On the day stated the prisoner was a police-Aker in the
Middleabro' force. His wife had been complaining of pain,
and he gave her a dark brown liquid, which be directed her
to take previous to retiring to bed, and to lay nothing about
it to her sister, who was then in the house. This request
oe the pert of the prisoner aroused the suspicion of his
wife, and she thereupon informed her sister of the circurn-
stanee. On entering her bedroom, Jane Buckle took half of
the liquid only, and not the whole, as her husband desired.
At an early hour on the following morning the poor woman
became dangerously ill, vomited seven or eight times, and
had to keep her bed for the whole of the day. She, how-
ever, recovered, and no notice was taken of the matter.
In about a fortoie-iht afterwards the prisoner brought home
a powder, which be raid he had got for her from a person
sensed Hopper. This powder, in the absence of the
prisoner, his wife took from hie coat pocket, and substituted
in its place a powder similar in appearance, composed of
ex:and doer. The powder in the prisoner's pocket wag
to Mr. Dickinson, chemist, and he having made an
anelyeation discovered that the powder contained a con-
Adorable quantity of strychnia. When the powder sot/found
to be poisonous the prisocer's wife, who was in
fear of her life, left her home with her child,
and informed the police of what had occurred.
The prisoner was apprehended and tried at the last York-
shire winter gaol delivery, on the charge of attempting to
administer strycbnia to his wife, but the evidence failed to
Wog home the charge, and the prisoner was acquitted ; the
present charge, therefore, el administering the laudanum
was preferred against him. It was shown that the prisoner
himself of the laudanum under the pretence that
is wife was afflicted with tooth-ache, and that be admi-
nistered it to her. Guilty. Sentence of death was recorded
against the primmer, his lordshipintimatiog that the punish-
ment would be commuted to penal servitude for life.

gumption. Barley was rather in request, and fully main-
tained last week's rates ; this latter remark is applicable to
all other kinds of grain. Quotations :—White wheat, fin,,

3711 . oats, 21s. to Ws. ; beans, Us. to 40e. ; peas the
same ; flour, 435. per sck. Boot meadow hay, 41. per
ton. The wheats (of which there is more than as
average plant, in this locality) look remarkably hralthr.
The sowing of spring corn is being proceeded with rapidly;
P1TC&BOILOUGII, MARCH 15. —We had only a small sup.
ply of all grain here to-day. Wheat was ls. per qr. lower.
Barley in better demand, and rather dearer. Oats and keel
sold readily at the full prices of last week.

RIADLIVG, MABOII —There was a moderate supply 0(
wheat at our market this morning with a fait attendance.
Business ruled very heavy, and the purchases mule were
only to Meet present demands. The same remark applies
to barley, beams, sad peaa. The trade purely of a nonth.“l
character.

ROCHESTER, 31tircir 15.—The stands were fairly sup.
plied, but the market was exceedingly ;lat. For the best
samples of both red and white wheats the prices obtained
at the last market were realised, but other descriptive.
were almost unsaleable, even at a decline of id. to is.
per qr. In foreign there was little passing, and prices, fur
everything of a superior description, were the same as he.
fore. Earley came slowly to hand, and the trade for tbi,
description of grain was quiet ; but lots for malting pur-
poses were held for last week's prices, but combine rum
were altogether unnoticed ; grinding barley wee the turn
cheaper. Oats were a dull sale, and prices were nominally
the game as before.

WIXBDCH, MARCH 15.—The supply of all grain continue;
on a liberal scale. Wheat must be written la per quarter
lower, whilst oats make last week's prices. Beans, barley,
and other things as before. The country is looking remark•
ably fine, and the growing wheats generally so. Prices to
the grower :—Wheat, white, new, 6Th. to 60a.. falbs. per
bushel ; red, new, 551. to 585., 6311 m. per bushel. Oat 9,
new, 11d, to ls. per stone. Beans, 40s. to 425. per 1j
stoats.

WOICESTEI, Maur 15.—At this day's market there was
• large supply of wheat from the growers, which foiled
buyers at a decline of about ls. per qr. Harley difficult to
quit and tending downwards. Oats unaltered in value, with
a very slow sale. Beans b. per qr. cheaper. Very few
inquiries for peas.
Yoaa, ileum 15.—Tbs show was moderate for the time
of the . Since last week the weather has been
cbangw~laa,, and to-day it is cold. The wheat trade ruled
and prices were in many cams ls. per quarter lower
than last week. For white wheat prices ranged from 62e.
to Cels. ; red, We, to liOa. for 36 stone. There was a limited
supply of barley for which the demand waspretty tolerable,
and the atirrsmeies of last week were fully supported
malting, 34a. to 365. per quarter; grinding, 32e. per 30
stone. The Moines. does in mita was by no means large,
and the show being fair, prim:shad a tendency to give way.
KIRICALDT, MMICH 14.—At our country
s markets this
week we had only moderate supplies of Ida& of grain.
&km slow, and, excepting for seed parcels, prices were in
favour of buyers. Here today we had fair supplies of
wheat and oats, but small of barley. Bales slow. Beet
wheat and oats sold at last week's rates ; inferior la. per qr.
lower. Harley much the same as last week. Wheat, new,
425. to 6135. per qr.; barley, new, 255. to 334. ; oats, new,
20a. to 29a.

WATERFORD, MARCH 15.—Supplies of homegrown grain
continue on a most limited scale, and the arrivals of foreign
are again very moderate. Our market has been lees active
this week, but prices have not undergone any material
alteration. Isaiah wheat being exceedingly scam maintains
previous rates, but foreign can be bad at a reduction of 3d.
to 6d. per barrel. At the decline a
considerable quantity
bas changed hands. Barley rather easier. Oats in fair re.
quest at Id. to 2d. per barrel more money. Indian corn
fully as dear, with a good consumptive demand. Flour 6d.

&GRIMM Prr ACCIDENT.—On Monday afternoon
a serious accident happened, whereby seven men expe-
rienced a narrow escape of an instantaneous and shocking
death, and by which as many have sustained serious hurts,
and an eighth man injuries that it is feared will prove
fatal. At the time mentioned seven of the men referred
to were esoesding the chid t of Mr. Hack ett's pit, at Tivi.
dale, in the customary skip, when John Lloyd, the doggy,
who was on the lankat the time, perceiving that the
engine was working faster than was compatible with
safety, and being further alarmed by observing that the
engineer was not at his poet, thrust the "waggon," or
moveable platform, over the pit's mouth. He had scarcely
done so before the skip was drawn over the pulley, and all
the seven men were thrown out, and more or lees
seriously injured. The poor fellow Lloyd, immedi-
ately that he had performed the act which saved at least
half of them from certain death, sustained vary severe in-
juries himself, for some of the men, and probably portions
of the skip, and the massive iron weights attached to, it fall
upon him, crushing his side, cutting hie heed and foxy and
rendering him iossnsitls. And it is a further painful fact
that Lloyd's son.in-law, who was one of the company in
the skip, is the one whose life is despaired of. The names
of the seven men are leant Ball Andrew Bond James
Hooper, Solomon Beddow, David Gallas, Samuel Price,
and John Evans. The first named is the man who is now
lying without remosable expectation of recovery. He is
26 years of is is about the youngest of the party,
_and,
like the is a husband soda father. The engineer's
name is Jan Dudley. He, so soon as he saw what had
happened, ran across the pit-bank, and is not supposed to
have been yet arrested.—Birstinghoes Poet.
