A PERSEVERING DESTRUCTIVE.--George Brown, a very
tall man about 40 years of age, and without coat or waist-
coat, which he had pawned for drink, was brought before
Mr. Woolrycb, charged with window breaking.
Mr. James Steers, the proprietor of a house of public en-
tertainment known as the West India Dock House, in Pop-
lar, said he had been frequently annoyed by the prisoner,
who had threatened to break all his windows and after-
wards break his heart. A month ago the prisoner delibe-
rately broke two panes of glass in the front window, and
was sentenced to fourteen days' imprisonment and
hard labour. Last night the prisoner came be-
fore the house, and, with a stone, deliberately broke
two panes of glass in the same sash. The value of them
was 12s.

Charles Stewart, a tailor, saw the prisoner break the two
panes of glass last night.
The prisoner—l was drunk; that is all, sir.
_ _ .

Mr. W oolrych—You are a mischievious,ill-minded man.
I sentence you to pay 12s. value, and 15s. fine, or be im-
prisoned and kept to hard labour for 21 days, and also to
enter into your own recognisance in the sum of £lO to
keep the pea& to the prosoeutor and all bet Majesty's sub-
jects for the space of six months.

THE TERROR OE THE WHITECHAPEL-ROAD.--ehMOS
King, a boy of 15, was brought before Mr. Woolrych,
charged with stealing 13lbs of beef, the property of Mr.
Hugman, butcher, in the Mile-end-I%ml.

A young woman, named Susan Collins, saw the prisoner
take a piece of beef from her master's board and ran away
with it. He was pursued, and threw away the beef which
was recovered. Its value was Bs. Bd.

William Hunt, 424 K, said the prisoner had been in cus-
tody before, and was the terror of the Whitechapel-road.
Mr. Woolrych—To all the inhabitants of that long road.
Hunt—Yes, sir, to all. (A laugh.)
Mr. Woolrych—What are the dangers they dread ?
Hunt—He snatches the meat off their boards, or any-
thing he can lay his hands on.

Mr. Woolryeh—They dread his pilfering propensities.
I am afraid the prisoner is a confirmed young thief, but as
there is no proof of a former conviction, although he has
been in custody, I shall begin with a mild punishment,
one month's imprisonment and hard labour.

MARKE'TS—This Day.

MARK-LANE.

Only a moderate supply of home-grown wheat was re-
ceived fresh up to our market to-day. For good and fine
samples there was a fair demand, and prices ruled firm ;
otherwise, the English wheat trade was quiet, at late rates.
The market was well supplied with foreign wheat. In
most descriptions only a moderate business was transacted,
yet no change took place in prices as compared with
Monday.
Floating cargoes of grain were in slow request, at late
rates.

The supply of barley on sale was only moderate. The
trade, however, ruled quiet, at previous quotations.

The demand for malt was in a sluggish state, at barely
late rates.

Oats were in good supply. Most qualities were in steady
request, and prices ruled firm.

Both beans and peas were scantily offered, and the trade
was firm at full currencies.

Most descriptions of flour moved off slowly at late rates.
