CITY MARKETS.—(TWO O'CLOCK.)
PLANTATION SUGAR9.-There has been rather more
animation in the market this week, and, but for the short
supply of the good qualities, more extensive business would
have been done; prices have been firmly maintained ; st
the public•sale of Rarbadoes Sugar on Tuesday, full prices
were given for the good and fine qualities, but the inferior
descriptions barely supported tbe former prices. 8,106
bags Mauritius Sugar have been offered, and taken off veil
readily, the strong grey and good and fine grocery descrir
tions at a small advance; 10,000 bags more are advertiss4
for next week.

FOREIGN SUGARS..--.There is scarcely any thing doio%
at present ; two parcels damaged Havannahs were sold bf
public sale on Tuesday, but they afforded no criterion t°
the prices of sound ; a small parcel of Porto Rico was 819°
sold on Tuesday at about the quotations.
REFINED SUGARS.—The increased demand for the le
and middling qualities for shipping keeps the market very
bare of goods, and full 6d. per cwt. advance has been give
this week ; for crashing and melting also there is a good
deal of enquiry for low single loaves and Prussian lump*
but nearly all of those descriptions ready have been take°
out of the market. Fine Hamburg and powder loave°
continue to be taken off at the quoted prices; in the fine
grocery descriptions there is no alteration.
COFFEE.—OnIy one small parcel of Plantation has bees
brought forward this week, consisting of the fine •qualigit
of Berbice, suitable only to the home trade, which wentop
without alteration in prices. In Foreign there is verylittie
doing at present, the holders generally, having with"-
drawn their parcels from the market, particularly go9a,
qualities ; 71 hhds. and 231 brie. and bags Porto Rico 91
good to fine ordinary coloury quality, but very rank, were,
sold on Tuesday at 365. to 38s. 6d.
FRUIT.—No alteration has taken place in prices till°,
week, and very little business has been done.
Rom.—The notice issued by Government for the con-
tract of 100,000 gallons of West India Rum for the use of
the Nary, to be delivered between the 15th and 30th
June, has had the effect of rendering the market for Rue'
more firm. The demand for Jamaican, both for home yee,
and exportation, is active at former prices. Leeward
proofs are held at Is. 10d., and 5 to 11 per cent. over
proofs at Is. 11d. per gallon.

East India Company. Boheas continue to command 0
profit of Ip. to 2d. per lb. on the last sale prices.

an increased demand at a further rise of id. to id. per lb
For Kent and Sussex pocket yearling Hops of 1820
there is a very good demand, in the London and othe
markets, at an advance of ss. per cwt.

OLD MAILEY.-(THIS DAY.)

OLD COURT.

Christopher O'Hara, aged 28, was capitally indicted
for maliciously stabbing John Trapp with intent to do him
some bodily harm.

John Trapp was a printer and had known the prisoner
about five months. He resided in North-street, Bethnal-
green, and was a tenant of witness's. Prisoner was a
weekly tenant and was very backward in his rent, whoa
he was told that if he was unable to ply more regularly,
he had better leave the house. On the 16th Feb., witness
in company with Mr. Wood, went to the prisoner's resi-
dence, for the purpose of demanding his rent, when be saw a
great number of persons collected round the door, princi-
pally females. They appeared in a state of alarm, in con-
sequence of loud cries of murder from some one up stairs.
Witness and Mr. Wood directly went up, when they saw
a woman struggling with two men : the prisoner was one
of them, and had hold of her head ; he was swearing most
violently, and appeared in a terrible passion. Witness
said, " Good God! what are you doing ?" The prisoner
then left the woman and rushed down stairs. Witness
followed him, when he advanced towards Mr. Wood and
witness with a large weapon in his hand, and swore he
would destroy them.

Mr. Justice Pauxx—Had the prisoner the same weapon
in his hand at the time he was standing over the woman ?
Witness—He had my Lord. Witness then seized him
by the collar, and held him tightly round the body until
he dropped the instrument. Witness then went towards
the door, intending to leave the house, when he saw the
prisoner, armed with another instrument, and ap-
parently intending to rush upon him. The other man,
who was up stairs with the prisoner, ill-treating the
woman was also armed with a
_bludgeon, and exclaimed,
" if any one attempts to enter the house, I will knock his
brains out." The shop door was then forced open ; wit-
ness's umbrella got fastened, and before he could extricate
it the prisoner struck him a terrible blow on the face
with the instrument. He thought his eye had beet:, cut
out ; the blood streamed down his face, and he exclaimed,
" Good God, I have lust my eye !" Witness then went to
a surgeon, and was under his care three weeks and two
days. Had never given the pris ,Her any provocation.
Samuel Edward Wood corroborated the prosecutor's
statement.

Shaw, a police officer, produced a chisel and ano-
ther instrument, which he found in the prisoner's hou-c.
There were marks of blood upon them.
Mr. Justice PARKE recapitulated the evidence, and the
Jury returned a verdict—Guilty of an assault, with intent
to do some bodily harm, but strongly recommended him
to mercy on account of his large family and good character.
