MARKET INTELLIGENCE.
(From the London New Price Current, Aug. 17.)
SUGAR.—This afternoon there was a good demand for
West India Sugar for home consumption, but supply
being plentiful, merchants were compelled to accept the
prices current on Friday. Operations are 776 hhds &c.,
including at auction 443 hhds 32 tra and 72 brls Barba.-
does, which went at steady prices; in some cases there ware,
however, a small reduction for better sorts—fine yellow
went at 37s 6d to 383, good mid to good 35s to 375, mid
32s 6d to 34s 6d, low 313 to 325, fine brown 30s to 303 6d,
good 29s to 29s 6d, and grainy yellow 34s to 39s 6d for
ord to good. 100 brls Grenada, good mid soft yellow
35s 6d, brown 30s to 31s 6d; 65 hds 7 trcs of Demerara
crystalised went at the full value, good to fine yellow at
37s Gcl to 41s, and mid 355.
REFINED,—To-day many purchases were made in
Refined Sugar for home consumption, still brown lumps
were obtainable at 43s 6d to 445, and low to fine grocery
44s 6d to 46s per cwt. The export demand for Crushed
Sugar is good at former rates.
MAIMITIUS.—This afternoon Mauritius Sugar was
operated in with more freedom, and the rates obtained
were equal to last week, but not above. At auction
6,662 bags were disposed of, fine yellow realized 343 6d
to 365, low to good 31s 6d to 345, middling to fine brown
284 to 31s, and ordinary to fine grey 28s to 35s per cwt.
EAST INDIA.—This afternoon the public sales of 2,700
bags Bengal Sugar went at full rates, low to middling
white Benares at 34s 6d to 365, good to fine 368 6d to
40s, damp snd washed 33s to 395, ordinary to good like
Mauritius 30s to 33s 6d, and ordinary grainy yellow 34s
6d to 353. Of Madras none was offered at auction, but
several parcels were sold privately at full valuations.

FOREIGN.-To-day duty paid parcels of Foreign
Sugar attracted little notice, but rates are sustained.
Floating cargoes are, however, wanted, and three of yel-
low Havannah have been sold at 203 to 22s for numbers
11 to 12k. None was submitted to public sale.
HOLASSES.-There is no decline in the value of West
India, but purchases have been on a limited scale, Bar-
badoes and Antigua at 143 to 153, St. Kitt's and Lucia
12s to 13a 63; there is also a further increase of supply.
Bengal and aaritius can be obtained at 12s to 12s 6d,
Porto Rico and Cuba 133 6d to lie, yet few buyers are
to be met with. Prices continue under last year, althugh
stock is 2,000 tons less, and deliveries 1,000 larger.
Tamarinds are more plentiful, and less demand exists,
West India can be obtained at 23s to 40s, and East
India 7s to 12s oer cwt. Honey keeps in good demand,
Jamaica at 353 to 60s, Cabe 32s to 40s, and Narbonne at
503 to 60s per cwt.
COCOA..-Although West India can be obtained ra-
ther under previous rates, and consumption remains
favourable, yet operations have been upon a limited
scale; Trinidad grey can be obtained at 28s to 325, low
to mid red 32a 6d to 34s 63, good to fine 35s to 40s,
and Grenada 26s 63 to 36s per cwt, Foreign has been
operated in with caution; there are sellers of Bahia at
24s 61 to 25e, Para to 26;, cad Guayquill at 30s per cwt.
COFFEE.-This afternoon there was a greater demand
for Plantation Ceylon Coffee, and rather higher rates
were obtained. At auction 323 casks and 107 bags
were nearly all disposed of, superior went at 75s 6d
to 88s 63, fine 66s to 69s 61, good middling to good
59s to 655, middling 563 to 58s, low middling
55s to 565, fine to fine fine ordinary 503 to 53s 6d,
triage 435 to 483, and pea berry 67s to 775. Of Telli-
cherrey 75 cases went at stiff ratee, superior clean green
at 63s 6d to 673 60, fine ord 51a 6,1 to 555, low to
good ordinary 45s to 493, and pea berry 68s to 703 6d
per cwt. In Native Ceylon little was done privately,
and none was offered at auction ; holders are, however,
firm, and will not sell good ordinary under 443 per cwt.
TEA.-Congou here continues to be operated in with
caution; still, lower rates have been refused; the better
qualities are still least in request, and of such supply
chiefly consists. Prices for low to good ord range at 7kri
to Sid, rather bleckish leaf to blackish leaf 9d to 10d,
strong Pekoe kinds I Id to is 63. Fine and good
Souchong are yet in good demand at Is Id to
13 143; supply continues small, but inferior is
plentiful ; there are few buyers, with sellers at
83 to is. In mid and common Oolong operations are
small at 8d to 11d; but superior sorts are wanted at is
to Is 80. Several purchases have been made in clean
Pouchong at 5d to 7d, and the market has a firm appear-
ance. Orders have increased for fithnee Grautenspopwrdeverie,hmsley-
dium Hyson, and youn
established being well supported, but for Canton
Green Tea there is a quiet market, and
prices rather incline downwards, the supply
augmenting. The following are the current

FRAN CE.
The Civil Tribunal of Boulogne-sur-Mer lately
gave a decision of great importance to travellers. A
g entleman named Shewell brought an action before
it against the Eastern and Continental Steam Packet
Co ropany, to recover damages for a carpet-bag and
its ,contents, some of which were bank-notes, which
had been placed on 2d September last on board the
company's steamer the Princess Clementine, and
which was subsequently lost. The plaintiff proved
the delivery of the bag to one of the corepany's men,
and its subsequent disappearance ; and he gave reason-
able proof that it contained bank-notes. Under these
circumstances, the Tribunal condemned the com-
pany's agent at Boulogne, Mr. Bernard, to restore
the bag and its contents, or to pay‘ 2,064 f. damages;
and it did so, notwithstanding the company declares
in its printed tariffs that it will not be responsible for
losses of more than 250 f., unless articles of greater
value be previously declared.
It has been stated that the masters and second-
masters of the steamers the Ville de Marseille and
Ville de Grasse, which ran into each other in No-
vember last near the Isles d'llyeres, off Toulon, and
caused the death of several passengers, had been
brought to trial before the Tribunal of Correctional
Police of that city. An account of the commence-
ment of the trial has already appeared. The affair
was brought to a close on Thursday, by the acquittal
of the two captains, Mid. Combos and Gazan, and
the condemnation of the second of the Ville de Mar-
seille, M. Bousquet, to a month's imprisonment and
501. fine, and of the second of the Ville de Grasse, M.
Allies, to 15 days' imprisonment and 251. fine.

ASSIZE INTELLIGENCE.

1170112'11 WALES ClRCUlT.—Chester, Aug. 16.
(Before Mr. Justice CUOMPTON.)
THE STOCKPORT RIOTS.

Previous to sentencing the prisoners the following
witnesses were heard in favour of two of them :

Mr. Sleddon and Mr. Axon had known the pri-
soner Gleave for several years, and he had always
been a steady, quiet young man. His father had been
a manager of a factory for 12 or 14 years.
Several testimonials were handed to the Learned
judge in favour of Pell.

Mr. WELsursaid he hoped it would be considered
that these trials were without prejudice to any pro-
ceedings that might be taken hereafter, in case the
ringleaders should be discovered.
iliS LORDSHIP said it had been his intention to
have mentioned that these trials would not at all
influence any ulterior steps that might be taken
against the other guilty persons.

VIE SENTENCES.
The Learned JUDGE then proceeded to sentence the
English prisoners. He said—George Pell, 'William
Buttery, and Mark Gleave, you have been severally
convicted, by a most attentive jury, of the crime of
riot. The jury has been most particularly careful
in watching the cases brought before them on this
occasion, that they might be certain not to convict
anybody on evidence that appeared at all doubtful.
I do hope and trust that this investigation has not yet
come to a close ; your guilty comrades in this riot
must not suppose that they have escaped justice, be-
cause no doubt further investigations will yet take
pl passing sentence upon you I do not
thatconsi-
deareeln
you have committed an ordinary riot or dis-
turbance, but a riot the dreadful object of which was
to assail the persons and destroy the property, to sack
the dwelling-houses and the rich edifices of your fel-
low-subjects, Roman Catholics and Irishmen, the
subjects of the Queen, and under her protection.
This outrage was directed against them as Roman
Catholics and Irishmen. I grieve to see men of your
character and position identified with such a mob, but
I must treat you as participators in these outrages.
For the sake of public justice it is necessary to treat
matters of this kind with great severity. For many
years in this country we have not had outrages like
these immediately directed against that religious
liberty which it is the pride of England to possess.
You profane the sacred name of Protestantism in endea-
vouring to prevent other men worshipping God iu the
way they think best. On the last occasion that outrages
like these were committed, men in the same position
as you are answered with their lives for their crimes,
because it was
thought necessary for the protection
of all religious bodies that outrages upon religious
houses and individuals should be punished with
death. We live, thank God, under milder laws, and
you have not even been indicted under laws which
render you liable to transportation. With regard to
you, Gleave, you were concerned in all the out-
rages. You were seen not only stirring the fire
before Mr. Frith's house, where all the articles
from the house and chapel were consumed, but also
coming out of the vestry of the chapel, which was
broken into. After a short time you ware seen
breaking into the houses of the Roman Catholics
in another part of the town, I am, therefore, sa-
tisfied that you were a party in the transaction not
only at Edgeley Chapel, but in every part of the
town where there were disturbances, and the sen-
tence upon you is that you be imprisoned and kept
to hard labour for the space of two years. As to you,
George Pell, you were seen demolishing the chapel.
It was proved by the individual who testified to your
good character that you could have been there but a
short time, yet you joined iu the outrage and were
seen with one of the pieces of wood, which must have
been torn out of one of the chapels, striking at the
walls and demolishing the windows. I have had
much difficulty in coming to a conclusion respecting
you. I hope lam not doing wrong in giving you 18
months' imprisonment and hard labour. You,
Georgeißuttery, allowed yourself to join in the out-
rage, and the sentence upon you will be the same
that you be imprisoned and kept to hard labour for
18 months.

The three prisoners wept, and appeared very much
distressed.

Prior to the sentences being passed upon the Irish
prisoners Mr. Welsby called Mr. Sadler, who said
that the prisoners had never been in custody or before
the magistrates upon any charge.

guilty of. ";;A harmless, unoffending man coming

rage had been carried a little further, you, Thomas
Murphy, would, perhaps, have had to answer for his
death. The sentence of the Court upon you is, that
you be imprisoned and kept to hard labour for fifteen
calendar months. You, Feeney, were seen as a ring-
leader, breaking into houses,
giving the mob orders,
and you yourself were throwing stones. The sen •

THE MURDER, CASE, ARISING OUT Or TUB
RIOTS.
Matthew Mulligan was charged with having mur-
dered Michael Moran on the 29th of June last, at
Stockpbit. • '
Mr. Welsby and Mr. Davison were counsel for the
prosecution, and Mr. Wlntyre on behalf of the pri.

in Bamford-
soner.
Mr. WELSBY stated the case.
said—On Tuesday, June 29, I was living
James Flanaghan was the first witness called. ,r,
Jae
street, Stockport. The deceased lived •
wih us. H
had come over from Ireland about three weeks be-
e
fore. On the evening. of that day the deceased
and I went to Ryley's, in Rock-row. We reached
there about seven o'clock, All was quiet then.
Ryley was not at home. We remained there
about twenty minutes or better, and then went
eight o'c,ocu.
up Lord-street. It would not be far offi_
i then. We saw a mob of about 100 people coming
down the street meeting us. They were English. I
had not seen any Irish until I made my escape. I
saw I was in danger, and I made my escape. Moran
was with me. I left him near Barlow's beerhouse,
opposite Baxter's shop, at the corner of Lord street
and Wellington-road. After making my escape I
returned in three or four minutes, and saw
Moran
about a yard or a yard and a half from Baxter's shop.
He was lying on his face, with a large cut on the
right aide of the head. He spoke to me, and I, with
the assistar.ca of an Englishman, assisted him back to
Ryley's. Was afterwards assisted by an Irishman.
Then went for Mr. Sheldon, surgeon, who examined
his head. While at Ryley's a mob came there. We
had then taken Moran up stairs and laid him on the
bed. It would then be about ten o'clock. The mob
took all the furniture outside and destroyed it. We
were up stairs when the police came. They told us to
come down stairs, and they would see us protected.
They Went with Moran to look for a doctor. At,
iEnglishman assisted me to take Moran along. We
could not find any surgeon's open. When I brought
Moran outside there were several hundred English-
men about the door. The Englishman who was as-
sisting me said, "Don't strike him any more, he has
had enough." One of the crowd said, " He's an Irish-
man," and struck him with a large lamp of wood on
i

the left side of the head. lam sure it was on the left
side of the head. It was on the different side to that
of the first blow. The deceased said, "Oh dear, lem
done." I then got him to the court-house, anti he
was seen by Mr. Walters. I remaned with him until
a quarter or twenty minutes past eleven o'clock. He
was alive when:l left him, but I never saw him alive
after. He did not speak after he was struck with the
wood, but sighed and moaned very much, and also
after the first blow. Thay asked his name at the
court-house, but he was not able to tell them.
Cross-examined by Mr. M'lrsTruE—When I and
the Englishman assisted him to Ryley's house he
walked all the way.
By the JUDGE—The deceased walked when he came
out of Ryley's with my assistance and the assistance
of an Englishman. After he received the last blow
he could not walk at all.

John Wood, moulder, living at Stockport, deposed
to being knocked down on the evening in question,
and to having seen the prisoner with a poker.
Martha Warcham—l am the wife of William War-
eham, living in Wellington-street. Was in Lord-
street on the night in question, between eight o'clock
and five minutes past. Upon looking down Lord-
street from the corner of Wellington-street saw a
mob of Irishmen coming from St. Peter's-square. On
looking up Lord-street saw about fifty lads running
and the Irish after them. Saw two young men in
conversation against the wall at Barlow's corner.
They were John Wood and Isaac Wood. There saw
two Irishmen running from Sandy-brow towards
Wellington-street. One of thew, with a blue slop,
had a half brick in his hand and the other bad stones
on his arm. The man with the slop threw the half
brick, and it struck John Wood on the back. I saw
Wood run into Baxter's shop. Shortly after I turned
round and saw a man in light clothes and J. Wood down
together. A man came up with a stick with an iron
crook in his hand. He struck the man in the light
clothes on the left side of the head. Am quite
sure of that. The men then ran down Lawrence-
street. " Murder" was then called. I went to the
man in light clothes, who was between Baxter's and
Goodwin's windows. Wood, the man who was un-
dermost, had got away. The man who had got light
clothes on had got a stone in his hand, and when he
got the blow with the crook it rolled over Wood's
shoulder to the ground. The man who had been
struck was then in the act of rising as if to get
away, when a young boy came up with a poker and
hit the man in light clothes, with both hands, on the
right hand side of the head.: Tae man fell to the
ground like lead. I turned round to the man who
struck, and said, " Thou murdering thief, thou has
killed him." That was the prisoner, lam sure of it.
Saw him at the inquest and recognised him. The
man who was struck was a good-looking young man,
he was an Irishman.
Cross-examined--When I saw the blow struck I
saw Mr. Axon close to where the struggling was
going on. The man with the poker went as far as
St. Peter's Church.
William Wareham, husband of the last witness,
who was with her at the time, corroborated her
statement. He identified the prisoner as the person
who had struck the deceased with the poker. 'Witness
spoke to the prisoner, and said he deserved hanging,
and ought to have the poker taken from him.
Cross-examined—There was not a blow struck by
an Englishman at that time. lam certain those lads
did not strike the man. Saw the prisoner in custody
about a quarter of an hour or twenty minutes after.
Elizabeth Kirkham, who lives inWellington-street,
stated that on the night in question, when in Welling-
ton-street, she saw John Wood struck by a man over
the head with something he had in his hand. John
Wood and that man came to the ground together,
Wood under. Wood got away; then the other man
was getting up, when the prisoner passed witness
with a poker in his hand. Should not have seen hisn,
but he touched her elbow in passing. He then struck
the man who was getting up with the poker over his
head. The man fell down, and witness ran away.
John Hoyle, who lives at the corner of Welling-
ton-street, deposed to Moran, the deceased, and Wood
wrestling together. Both fell, and just before Morau
could get up he was struck with a poker on the right
side of the head. Wood had then got away among
the crowd. Moran fell to the ground from the blow
of the poker. The prisoner struck the blow with the
poker.
Thomas Powell gave evidence similar to the above.
George Cadman, one of the police-officers, deposed
to having ,apprehended the prisoner on the night in
question in Lord-street, at from five to ten minutes
past eight o'clock. Apprehended him at the top end,
and, as he passed down the street, it was exactly a
quarter-past eight by St. Peter's Church. The pri-
soner ran into a house, and, from what was said by
the people about, he apprehended him. The prisoner
had a sickle in his hand, and he dropped it.
Medical evidence was given to prove that death
was caused by fracture of the skull.
This closed the case for the prosecution.
Mr. M'lNTyttE then addressed the jury on behalf
of the prisoner.
The Learned JUDGE then proceeded to explain to
the jury the difference between the crimes of murder
and manslaughter; after which he read through the
whole of the evidence.

The jury then retired, and after an absence of
forty minutes returned a verdict of Guilty of man-
slaughter.
The prisoner Mulligan was sentenced to fifteen
years' transportation.

NORTHERN ClRCUlT.—Liverpool, Aug. 16.
(Sittings at Nisi Prius, before Mr. Justice WIGUT
MAN.)

GRUNDY V. CAPE.
In this case Mr. Atherton, Q.C., and Mr. Seger
appeared for the plaintiff, and Mr. Sergeant Wilkins
for the defendant.
This was an action for libel, in which the plaintiff
sought compensation in damages for having been termed
by the defendant, in a letter to a Mr. Hobson, " a liar
and a scoundrel." It appeared that the defendant had
a house and garden to dispose of at Manchester, and
that Mr. Hobson wished to take it, with the furni-
ture and plants, at a valuation. As the parties
could not agree to take an old valuation by a
Mr. Fisher, it was then agreed that each should
appoint a valuer, and Mr. Hobson appointed
Mr. Grundy, the plaintiff, who is an auctioneer, as
his valuer, Mr. Grundy saying that he did not know
much about plants, but that he would arrange about
that. Subsequently, in a conversation with the
defendant, Mr. Grundy was understood to say he
was directed not to value the plants. This led to a
dispute between Mr. Hobson and Mr. Cape, Mr.
Grundy denying that he had said anything of the
kind, when the defendant wrote a letter to Mr. Hob-
son, stating he had no hesitation in saying that
Grundy " was a liar and a scoundrel." The plain,
tiff, on cross-examination, denied that he had been
before likened to "a harp struck by lightning," or to
a " blasted lyre."
For the defence it was urged that the conduct of
the plaintiff had not been straightforward in the
matter; that the defendant was a man of warm tern-
perament, and called things by their right names ;
that he did not, as a certain noble lord was said to
have done, when he wished to politely impute false.
hood to another, say that "he had postponed the
interests of truth to the expediency of the moment,"
but called a wheelbarrow a wheelbarrow, and said
of the defendant what he thought of him. The
damage, however, was of the most trivial kind ; and,
whatever their verdict, the plaintiff would eat his
mutton chop after the trial as heartily as he appeared
to have eaten his breakfast before it.

His LORDSHIP summed up the evidence to the
jury, and _ _

- The jury found a verdict for the plaintiff—D&
maps 40s.

The Court, in the course of the day, got into
the second list, and disposed of a number of unde-
fended cases.

CROWN COURT.—(Before Lord Chief Justice

CAMPBELL.)
John Morgan, aged 28, and Michael Olcffield, aged
43, were indicted, the first with stealing, and the latter
with receiving, knowing it to be stolen, bills and notes
to the amount of r 5/., the property of the Postmaster-
General.

Mr. Adolphus, Q.C., and Mr. Milward ap
peered for the prosecution; the prisoners were un.
defended.

It appeared that a person named Hoyle on the 17th
o f last February, posted a letter at Halifax, contain-
ing a 50/., a 291., and a Si. note, addressed to
"Messrs. Glendenning and Wilson, soap-boilers,
Liverpool." This letter never arrived at its destina-
tion,
i and inquiries were therefore instituted respect-
ing t. It appeared that Messrs. Glendenning and
Wilson resided in the district for which the prisoner
Morgan was lettercarrier. It was also proved in
evidence that the prisoner Oldfield, a short time after
the letter was missing, went to a bedding manufac-
turer, and ordered a quantity of bedding to be made
up in two parcels, for which he paid a 201. note. This
note was identified as the one which had been sent
in the missing letter. Morgan afterwards ordered a
carrier to go and fetch these parcels from the bedding
manufacturer's, in order that th7y might be sent to
Seaforth. The carrier havinggot the goods took
them to a public-house near at band, where the pri-
soners were waiting for him.
His LORDSHIP having summed up the evidence, the
jury found both the prisoners Guilty.
They were sentenced to be transported for 10 years.

CENTRAL CRIMINAL COURT.
OLD COURT.
John Hazzard, a
police constable, surrendered to
take his trial upon an .indictment charging him with
wilful and corrupt perjury.
Mr. Duncan prosecuted ; Mr. Ballant;ne was coun-
sel for the defendant.
The prosecutor of this indictment WU a person
grocez'o and 0401005 named Cavalier, who keeps

shop in the Commercial-road East, and w. ho, it ap-
peared, also holds a licence for the sale of beer, but
who has no taproom or other ordinary place for beer
to be drunk upon his premises. Holding a beershop
licence, however, he veal. amenable to the police regu-
lations having reference to such establishments, one
of which was, in this district, that all the beershops
should be closed at 12 o'clock at night, and not be
opened before five o'clock in the morning, and it ap-
peared that on the 16th of June the prosecutor was
summoned, at the instance of the present defendant,
before Mr. Yardley, at the Thames Police-court, to
answer a charge of having kept his house open after
12 o'clock at night on the 7th of June. Upon that
occasion the defendant was examined as a witness
in support of the charge, and it appeared that he
stated that he went into the house at 20 minutes past
12 o'clock on the morning of the Bth of June, and
that he saw five persons drinking and stnokinte in
front of the bar. Evidence was afterwards adduced
on behalf of the defendant, and in the result the
information was dismissed by the magistrate. A
summons was then obtained against the defendant,
calling upon him to answer the present charge, and
he appeared before the magistrate for that purpose ;
but owing, as it was stated, to the counsel for the pro-
secution being prevented from attending to support
the charge, no evidence was offered, and the present
indictment was subsequently preferred before the
grand jury. A great number of witnesses were now
examined on behalf of the prosecution, and from their
evidence it appeared that upon the night in question
several peasons had been in the house drinking and
smoking, but they all swore positively that the house
was cleared before 12 o'clock, and that at the time
the policeman went in no person was inside the house.
It was admitted, however, that close to the hour of
12 persons answering the description of those spoken
to by the defendant were in the house or close to it.

Mr. BALLINTINE, in his address to the jury for the
defendant, commented, in the first place, upon the
absence of any motive on the part of the constable to
prefer a false charge of this description, and also-upon
the improbabili:T that ho should have deliberately
made such an accusation if there were really no
grounds to support it. He then commented upon the
character of some of the witnesses who had been exa-
mined on behalf of the prosecution, and said that it
appeared to him the probability was that the de-
fendant had told the truth of the transaction, and that
the utmost that could be alleged against him was that
he might have made a slight mistake with regard to
the time.

Thomas Johnson, who was formerly a constable
belonging to the same division as the defendant, was
called as a witness in his behalf, and he deposed that
he was on duty upon a beat adjoining that of the de-
fendant on the night in question, and he joined him
soon after twelve o'clock. It was their duty to watch
the beershops, and see that they were closed at twelve
o'clock, and, in consequence of something the defen-
dant said to him, he looked at his watch, snd saw that
it was twenty minutes past twelve o'clock. After
this he saw five men and two women come out of the
house of the prosecutor, and the defendant went
across and knocked at the door, and in about two
minutes the door was opened and he went in.
In cross-examination this witness said that since the
time in question he had been dismissed from the po-
lice for being out, contrary to the regulations of the
force, during the period when he was off duty on ac-
count of sickness.

James Mlntosh, a sergeant in the prisoner's di-
vision, proved that on the morning of the Bth of June
he made a report to him in reference to the house
of the prosecutor. He also said that the defendant
had been in the force for two years and a half, and
had always behaved very well, and was a very good
officer.

Inspector Kendall likewise spoke favourably of the
character of the defendant.
The RECORDER summed up; and
The jury, after very little deliberation, returned a
verdict of Not Guilty'.
Mr. DUNCAN applied for the expenses of the prose-
cution.

The RECORDER said be was not satisfied that he
ought to allow them. He was anxious to discourage
the proceeding of parties going before the grand jury,
instead of having a charge investigated by a magistrate.
In this case also it appeared that an appointment was
made to have the case investigated by a magistrate,
but the prosecutor did not think proper to offer any
evidence.

Mr. DUNCAN assured the court that the reason for
this was that he was detained in the Court of Exche-
quer, and was consequently unable to appear before
the magistrate to conduct the prosecution.
The RECORDER said he thought this was not a sa-
tisfactory explanation. It was a very simple case, and
might have been inquired into without the assistance
of counsel. If such an inquiry had been gone into,
he thought it very probable the ease would never
have come to this court, and at present he should
make no order with regard to the expenses.

NEW COURT.
(Before Mr. RUSSELL GURNEY, Q.C.)
John Carthy, 26, labourer, was indicted for the
manslaughter of Joseph Dunmore, jun.
The charge arose out of a fight, which took place
in July, 1849, at Plumstead, when Dunmore received
injuries that resulted in his death. The prisoner had
acted as second at the fight.
The jury found him Guilty, and he was sentenced
to one month's imprisonment.
James Wilson, 32, victualler, surrendered to take
his trial for felony.
Mr. Parry defended.
It appeared that the prisoner assisted his brother,
who keeps the King's Arms, Bishopagate, and on the
17th of June the prosecutor, Mr. Mark Sanders, was
there playing at bagatelle. Prisoner was in the room,
as also were two police officers, all joining in the
game. One of the constables was in uniform. In
the course of the game the prosecutor said to prisoner
that all the
money he had was a fonrpenny-piece.
Upon this they began larking with each other, and
prisoner took from prosecutor's pocket his gold watch
and chain, valued at 171. Prosecutor, thinking it was
but a joke, merely told the prisoner to take care and
not break the chain. Directly after prisoner had taken
the watch he went away, but prosecutor, thinking
that he would bring it back, did not either follow
him or ask to have it returned until be was leaving
the house at night. Prisoner not coming back, pro-
secutor gave information to Hall, a constable of the
City, and he want to prisoner's lodgings, in Hoxton,
the next day, and saw prisoner, who at once admitted
that he had pawned the watch and chain, and spent
the money, but that prosecutor had told him he might
use it for that purpose, as he had once owed him 2101.
The prosecutor denied this.

Several witnesses having given prisoner a good
character, the jury, after some deliberation, Acquitted

ROMANCE IN REAL LITE.
It will probably be recollected by some of oar
readers that in April, 1843, a tall, gaunt, and ex.
tremely repulsive woman was brought up at •
tbe
Mansion-house, before the Lord Mayor (Alderman
Humphery), charged, upon strong suspicion, of having,
stolen a child, which was believed to be the child of
respectable parents. 'lle facts, as they
elicied were briefly these :—The woman, who vgsB°
the most depraved and filthy habits, had been seen beg:
ging about the metropolis and its suburbs with a child
about three years of age, which she, notwithstanding
its apparent repugnance, continued, or pretended, to.
suckle. At length, in a state of utter exhaustion and
or
distress, she applied for admission to the Asylum
Refuge for for the Houseless Poor, where she was a
tended by a kind-hearted benevolent gentleman, 9, r*

Bowie, the surgeon to the institution, who, dar'l3.6
the progress of her cure, was struck with the remaxl;
able contrast between the woman and the child, and
e
the evident superiority of form and feature in the
latter, and so great was the dissimilarity that .
at once concluded there could be no close relation
between them, and that she had in all
stolen the child. Acting under this conviction
