MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

MURDEROUS ASSAULT ON A FEMALE,—James Sullivan,
a French polisher, of 6, Little Denmark-street, was charged
with violently assaulting Mrs. Mary Murphy, residing in
the same house.

From the evidence of the complainant, whose head was
bandaged, it appeared that on Saturday evening an alterca-
tion had taken place between her husband and the prisoner,
and some time after, while descending the stairs to look for
something her husband had dropped in the passage, the
prisoner seized her and dragged her down two flights of
stairs, and got her on the ground. The prisoner then gave
her some violent blows on the head with a flat-iron, and
the prisoner's wife kicked the complainant in a savage
manner about the body. The complainant called "murder,"
and the police came to her assistance.
Sergeant Vernon, 15 F, said that on going to Little
Denmark-street he found the complainant bleeding pro-
fusely from two wounds on the bead. On being told the
prisorer had done it he went up to his room, and as he re-
fused to come on., he burst the door open and tool: the pri-
soner into custody. He afterwards took the injured woman
to the hospital, where her wounds were dressed.
Mr. Tyrwhitt said that he should remand the prisoner
for a week, that it might by that time be seen whether the
complainant was free from danger.
The prisoner was remanded.
Owen Sullivan, a rough fellow, was charged with assault-
ing Wm. Nelson, 195 C.
The prisoner was making a great disturbance, and on
being requested to desist by the constable, he struck him
three violent blows in the month, and kicked and bit him.
Mr. Tyrwhitt committed the prisoner for seven days.

ANOTHER ACCOUNT.

On Saturday afternoon an accident happened at
the new bridge now in course of erection at Black-
friars for the London, Chatham, and Dover Rail-
way, which might have been attended with very
serious consequences. A travelling crane upon
which seven men were at work was crossing a tram-
way between two of the wooden piers, when sud-
denly, from some cause at present unknown, one of
the cross girders gave way, and the crane with the
men upon it fell with a tremendous crash into the
water. A barge which was passing at the time was
between the piers when the scaffolding broke, but
the men on it escaped in the most miraculous man-
ner with a few cuts and bruises of no consequence.
The men on the crane also had a marvellous escape,
only two of them being seriously hurt, the others
ge:ting off with a wet jacket, and a hard knock or
two. One of the men received a scalp wound and a
severe cut in the leg, he was taken to St. Bartho-
lomew's Hospital, where he now lies. On inquiry
yesterday morning we were informed that he will be
able to leave the hospital in a few days. The other,
who was carried to Guy's Hospital, left as soon as
his wounds were dressed. There are several rumours
about that some of the men are missing, and tk:at
the captain of the barge was drowned, but there is
no foundation for them. One of the river steam-
boats passed the spot where the accident occurred,
only two or three minutes before the crane fell; had
it been underneath the tramway at the time the
consequence would have been fearful. Divers were
at work yesterday during nearly the whole of the
day recovering portions of the broken traveller. As
yet no cause has been assigned for the accident.

ladies of his own late establishment installed in their

WESTMINSTER.

ROBBERY OF JEWELLERY, &C,, BY A NURSE,—Caroline
Liddle, a stout, matronly-looking woman, was charged be-
fore Mr. Selfe with the following robberies :
Charles Blenzard, 6, Caledonian-terrace, Chelsea, stated
that for the last fortnight the prisoner, who was a lodger in
the house, was engaged by his wife, who was recently con-
fined. On Saturday last he told the prisoner to go to the
mangling-woman for some things that had been sent to her.
He went with the prisoner for the things and found that
they had not been left. On his return home he made a
search, when he missed a pair of boots belonging to his wife.
She had also lost several articles of wearing apparel.
In answer to Mr. Selfe, the witness stated that one of his
lodgers had bsen robbed to a great extent.
The lodger, named Raymond, stated that during the last
two months he had lost a silver rattle, a gold ring, several
articles of wearing apparel, &c. The things were in a press
in the back parlour.
Mr. Selfe asked if any of the articles had been found.

A police-constable produced several pawnbrokers' tickets,
which he observed he thought referred to some of the pro-
perty stolen.

_
➢Zr. Blenzard said that the prisoner stated that she had
stolen some of the property, and that if she had time she
would restore what she had pawned.
The prisoner was remanded.

ANOTHER ACCOUNT.

On Saturday afternoon an accident happened at
the new bridge now in course of erection at Black-
friars for the London, Chatham, and Dover Rail-
way, which might have been attended with very
serious consequences. A travelling crane upon
which seven men were at work was crossing a tram-
way between two of the wooden piers, when sud-
denly, from some cause at present unknown, one of
the cross girders gave way, and the crane with the
men upon it fell with a tremendous crash into the
water. A barge which was passing at the time was
between the piers when the scaffolding broke, but
the men on it escaped i❑ the most miraculous man-
ner with a few cuts and bruises of no consequence.
The men on the crane also had a marvellous escape,
only two of them being seriously hurt, the others
getting off with a wet jacket, and a hard knock or
two. One of the men received a scalp wound and a
severe cut in the leg, he was taken to St. Bartho-
lomew's Hospital, where he now lies. On inquiry
yesterday morning we were informed that he will be
able to leave the hospital in a few days. The other,
who was carried to Guy's Hospital, left as soon as
his wounds were dressed. There are several rumours
about that some of the men are missing, and that
the captain of the barge was drowned, but there is
no foundation for them. One of the river steam-
boats passed the spot where the accident occurred,
only two or three minutes before the crane fell; had
it been underneath the tramway at the time the
consequence would have been fearful. Divers were
at work yesterday during nearly the whole of the
day recovering portions of the broken traveller. As
yet no cause has been assigned for the accident.

ANTWERP REGATTA.

These interesting sports commenced last Monday, and
consisted of prizes for yachts, luggers, yawls, and gigs.
What added to the interest of the occasion was the presence
of R. Bain's celebrated Lambeth crew to contend for the
various prizes open to all nations. The first was a four-
oared race, for which five crews put in an appearance. The
lead was taken by the English, who maintained it through-
out, and won easily by six lengths—a very spirited crew
from Rotterdam being second. On Tuesday a four-oared
gig-race was won by Bain's crew in a similarly easy man-
ner. A grand race of honour for 2,000 francs, open to all
strangers, was next on the list, and for which the Lambeth
crew entered ; but only two boats putting in an appearance
at the starting •post, the prize, according to the conditions,
was withheld.

Thunder and lightning with heavy rain prevailed during
both days. Bain's crew, after receiving the congratulations
of the committee and the English residents in Antwerp,
left that city on Wednesday, by the Baron Osy, en route
for Folkestone Regatta. Unfortunately, they were caught
in the severe gale of that evening, but the skill and
seamanship of Captain Ferguson and crow overcame
all difficulties, and the Lambeth men, after receiving every
kindness and attention on board the steamer, arrived safely
at Folkestone early on Friday morning.

ROBBERY or JEWELLERY, &C., BY A NURSE.—Caroline
Liddle, a stout, matronly-looking woman, was charged be-
fore Mr. Selfe with the following robberies :

Charles Blenzard, 6, Caledonian-terrace, Chelsea, stated
that for the last fortnight the prisoner, who was a lodger in
the house, was engaged by his wife, who was.recently con-
fined. On Saturday last he told the prisoner to go to the
mangling-woman for some things that had been sent to her.
He went with the prisoner for the things and found that
they had not been left. On his return home he made a
search, when he missed a pair of boots belonging to his wife.
She had also lost several articles of wearing apparel.
In answer to Mr. Selfe, the witness stated that one of his
lodgers had been robbed to a great extent.
The lodger, named Raymond, stated that during the last
two months he had lost a silver rattle, a gold ring, several
articles of wearing apparel, &c. The things were in a press
in the back parlour.
Mr. Selfe asked if any of the articles had been found.
A police-constable produced several pawnbrokers' tickets,
which he observed he thought referred to some of the pro-
perty stolen.
Mr. Blenzard said that the prisoner stated that she had
stolen some of the property, and that if she had time she
would restore what she had pawned.
The prisoner was remanded.

METROPOLITAN CATTLE.

There was a full average supply of foreign stock on sale
in to-day's market. The quality of the beasts was inferior;
but there were some very useful sheep and calves on offer.
Sales progressed slowly, at barely late rates.

The arrivals of beasts from our own grazing districts
were large as to number, but their general quality was
by no means good. Prime breeds, therefore, commanded a
steady inquiry at prices quite equal to Monday last.
Otherwise the beef trade was in a sluggish state, and in
some instances the currencies had a drooping tendency. It
is necessary to observe that there were no prime Scots on
offer, the receipts from Scotland having ceased for the
preseat.

From Lincolnshire, Leicestershire, and Northampton..
shire, we received 3,000 shorthorns, &c., from other parts
of England 600 various breeds, and from Ireland 400 oxen
and heifers.

We were again well supplied with sheep, but there was
a falling cff in the general condition. Good and prime
Downs and half-breds commanded a steady sale at full
quotations. All other breeds raoved off slowly on rather
easier terms.

Prime lambs supported the recent advance in price, but
inferior breeds declined 4d per 81b, with a heavy demand.
Calves, the supply of which was moderate, sold slowly at
late rates.

The demand for pigs was heavy on former terms.

ALARMING ACCIDENT AT BLACK-

FRIAR'S-13RIDGE.

On Saturday an alarming accident occurred at
the works now in progress for the erection of a via-
duct for the London, Chatham, and Dover Railway,
across the Thames at Black friars. Of late immense
masses of scaffolding for laying the foundations of
the bridge have been raised at intervals right across
the river, leaving here and there open spaces in a
lino with the arches of the old bridge for the pur-
poses of the navigation. These works rise to a great
height, and, being in themselves somewhat pic-
turesque, people collect on the bridge in great num-
bers from day to day to witness the operations,
which were being pushed forward with astonish-
ing rapidity. As usual in great engineering un •
dartakings, travelling cranes are in use for
carrying materials along the line of operations,
and especially for lifting masses of granite which
are being used in the structure. They run on lines
of rail, and can be readily moved from place to
place. One of these cranes, a ponderous thing
of itself, was being transferred from one part of
the works to another on Saturday afternoon
about three o'clock. It was worked in the pro-
cess of removal by seven or eight men, whom it car-
ried along with it, bearing thus its own motive
power, when, in crossing one of the spans left free
for the navigation, a beam of wood on which the
machine travelled gave way, and the crane, with the
whole of the men upon it, fell sideways with a fear-
ful crash into the river from a height of about 40
feet. For the moment, the excitement which the
incident produced among the people on the old
bridge is said to have been so great as of itself to give
cause for ala rm. They collected in a state of con-
sternation all along the eastern parapet, end the
crowd kept increasing for some time. A barge,
with two men on board, belonging to Brentford,
was passing below at the time of the accident, and
one of the men is said to have been hurt, but to what
extent could not be learnt, by the falling materials.
Two, if not more, of the seven or eight men who fell
with " the traveller," were so much injured as to
render their removal to an hospital necessary, and
there was a rumour on Saturday evening that one
was wholly missing. It would appear, however,
from inquiries made in various quarters last evening
that they were all picked up alive, but on Sunday,
when all the operations at the bridge were
suspended, it was difficult to learn the exact
truth. A minute or two before the accident a river
steamer crowded with passengers passed the spot
where the crane and the broken timber fell, and the
people on board had thus a narrow escape. During
the whole of yesterday the bridge was crowded
with people talking over the accident, and watch-
ing the operations for raising the traveller from the
bed of thelriver, where it endangered the navigation,
already sufficiently intricate,while these engineering
works are in progress. It is understood to have
been removed towards evening.
