METROPOLITAN CATTLE.
There was about an average supply of beasts on sale here
to-day, but the general quality of the stock was inferior.
Prime breeds moved off readily, at very full prices. Other-
wise, the beef trade was heavy, at late rates. The best
Scots and crosses realised 5s 2d per Blbs. Sheep, the show
of which was only moderate, were in good request, at ex-
treme currencies, The best Downs and half-breeds were
worth 5a 6d per Blbs. We have to report a good sale for
calves, at full quotations—viz, from 4s to 5s per Sibs. The
supply was by no means extensive. Pigs and milch cows
were in fair request, on former terms.

ACCIDENTAL HANGING. Yesterday afternoon
Dr Lankester held an inquest at the Vestry-room
of St Thomas's, Chancery-lane, on the body of Job Bart-
lett. an apprentice to a printer, who, by allowing his mind
to dwell constantly on the case of Muller, came to speculate
on the subject of hanging, and, while making sortie experi-
ments, lost his life through a misadventure. It appeared
from the evidence of several persona who worked in the
printing office of Mr Chipereile, of Chancery-lane, in
which the deceased was employed, that they saw him
about half-past six on Monday evening, and that he was
found dead at a quarter before seven. Ever since the
murder of Mr Briggs his thoughts had run in that direction,
and often when speaking of the probable fate of Muller he
had said that he should like to be hanged. Elward Ride,
an apprentice, who discovered the deceased hanging, said
the rope which was about his neck was not twisted, and
was only tied by a single knot. His impression, confirmed
by many others in the same office, was that the lad was
playing it hanging, and that, at he was standing on thick
glass let into the 11 or for the purpose of giving light to
the room below, he might have slipped and become en-
tangled in the rope. Ile was of a cheer till disposition, and
no one over supposed him to be serious when he talked
about his desire to be hanged. The rope was placed in the
room for the prpose of pulling
up the windows for ven-
-IHr:tier. The coroner, in summing up, inclined to the opi-
nion that the lad did not intentionally commit suicide, and
the jury, adopting the same view of the esi?, rsturn.ed a
verdict of " Death from misadventure."
