THE COUNTRY MARKETS.
IPSWICH, FEB. 24.
We had a very small supply of grain at market to-day. The
trade again showed firmness, and prices for wheat were firm at
late rates. The growers appear to be nearly cleared out of
barley ; the show of samples was very small, and prices were
inclining dearer. Beans and peas firm.

Messrs. Taylor and Bright's Circular states :—The weather
during the past week has been very dry and frosty,
sonable than at any period of the winter. A firmer tone
pervaded the wheat market, and the decline which appear
impending prevented. To-day our farmers brought fully
moderate supply of wheat, and such met very free sale at fell
the rates current last week, with a good consumptive demand
for dry somples, which were more abundant than last TuesoleYo

John Sullivan, 18; Cornelius Ronan, 19; Mathew
Cauty, 15; Michael Harding, 23; Francis Sullivan, 40;
Norah, his wife, 39; Mary Donovan, 21; and Mary
Cauty, 20, were charged with being drunk and disorderly
and assaulting Sergeant Weakford, 5 H, Francis Wil-
liams, 113 11, John H. Bickell, 149 11, Armstrong, 17S
11, Hall, 127 11, Mackey, 66 H, and Sines, 153 H., and
various other constables.

The prisoners presented a frightful appearance in the
dock. .Mathew Cauty had received several most sever°
cuts—be was lilted into and supported in the dock by
his sister; he groaned heavily, and appeared to be in a
dying state.
par. YARDLEY directed that all the prisoners should
stand down, and that Cauty should be attended to.
Shortly after a medical man entered the court, end
said that Cauty was suffering from congestion of the
brain.

Mr. YARDLEY—IS it not dangerous? Ho appears to
me to be in a dying state.
Medical Man—lt would be adviseable to take him to
the hospital.
Mr. YARDLEY—Do not the wounds appear to have
beeninflicted by a blunt instrument, or caused by a
fall? Surgeon—l have not examined them—they were
dressed by a medical man. I can examine them, if
you wish.
Mr. YARDLEY—Bat it might be injurious.
Sergeant White said Mr. Mears, the divisional sur-
geon, who dressed the wounds, could be sent for if
necessary.
Cauty was then removed ; and the case proceeded
against the other prisoners, all of whom—except the
females—are dreadfully wounded, and were covered with
blood.
It appeared from the evidence of Sergeant Weakford
(who is most seriously injured and wounded) and the
other constables, that at about two o'clock yesterday
morning the male prisoners and others were drunk and
creating a great disturbance in Fieldgate-street, White-
chapel. Weakford and Dodd, 45 H, went up and advised
them to go away. They went to the corner of Now-street,
a distance of ten yards, and then turned round saying,
"We wont go; go away with you, you dogs." They
then went down New-street, and commenced throwing
stones and brickbats. The officer went away, thinking
they would go home, but John Sullivan throw halt a
brick which struck the sergeant on the shoulder. Ile
caught hold of Sullivan, who was immediately rescued
by his father and others, and they all went into the
house, 8, New-court. Weakford sent Dodd for assis-
tance, and went in to apprehend the younger Sullivan,
when the old man struck him a violent blow with a thick
stick on the back of the head.
Mr. YARDLEY—Had you your staff. out? Weakford—
I had; but I had struck no one. Williams, 113, who is
unable to attend, then entered the room. Norah Sulli-
van knocked tho sergeant's hat off, and he was struck
across the head by a piece of iron by SullivanS or Ronan.
lie bled profusely. The elder Sullivan then struck
Williams with part of a hatchet, and forced him out of
the house in an insensible state.
Mr. YARDLEY—Had you used your staff? Weakford
—No; I had not an opportunity, They then dragged
me out of the house, and I was thrown down insensible.
One of the prisoners had a sickle in his hand. Bickel],
149, was received with a terrible blow from the chopper,
which slit his hat in two. Donovan then attempted to
strike him with part of a stool, but he warded it off with
his staff. Mary Cauty threw a bucket of water in
maekey's face, and handed missiles to her brother to
throw at the constables. They also assaulted Armstrong
and Sines,
Mr. YARDLEY said he should remand the prisoners
till Monday, when ho hoped Williams would be able to
attend.
