CRIMINAL COURT--THIS DAY.

OLD COURT.
(Before the Recorder.)
UTTERING FORGED ORDERS.
George Copeland, a respectable looking young man, aged
24, described as a warehouseman, pleaded guilty to two
indictments charging him with uttering forged orders of
request for the delivery of goods with intent to defraud.
The prisoner was sentenced to twelve months' imprison-
ment, with hard labour.

SHEEP -STEALING.
Henry Sandeford, aged 18 ; Robert Heath, 20, and Joseph
Withers, 23 ; all described as butchers, were indicted for
stealing eight sheep, the property of Mr. Sebastian Gar-
rard, the well-known silversmith at the West-end.
Several witnesses having been examined,
The jury returned a verdict of guilty against all three
prisoners.

The Recorder sentenced Sandeford and Withers to two
years' imprisonment, and Ring to 18 months' imprison-
ment, with hard labour. The punishment for this offence
was formerly death.
THE CASE OF ASSAULT ON 'YOUNG BEN CAUNT.
Mr. Sleigh said he was instructed to apply, on the part
of the prosecution, in which a person named William Ward,
a brother of the celebrated pugilist, Jem Ward,
is charged
with a brutal and ferocious assault on Mr. Caunt, at the
Coach and Horses, St. Martin's-lane, and from the effects
of which he has to the present time been an out-patient of
Charing-cross Hospital, that the recognisances might
be enlarged until next sessions, to enable the prosecutor to
go before the grand jury; ho did so upon the affidavit of
Mr. Delamotte, house surgeon to the hospital, who stated
that he had seen Caunt this morning at his residence, and
that ho was suffering from erysipelas and fever, and wholly
unable to attend.

Mr. Ribton, for the defendant, said he was instructed to
oppose the application, on the ground that it was not bona
fide.

Mr. Sleigh said Mr. Delamotte, the surgeon, was in
court, and might be examined.
Mr, Delamotte was called, and repeated the statement
made in the affidavit. He had seen the prosecutor this
morning, and found him suffering from erysipelas and fever,
and in his opinion it would be dangerous for him to attend.
The Recorder said after that evidence the case must stand
over, and the recognisances enlarged to next sessions.

NEW COURT.
(Before Mr. T. Chambers, Q.C., Common Sergeant.)
Robert Owen, a man 60 years of age, was indicted for
passing counterfeit money, and several cases were proved
against him. It appeared that he was a ticket-of-leave
man with a year and a half to serve.

The Common .sergeant ordered him to be sent back for
the year and a half, and added another year and a half to
the sentence.

CHARGE OP LIBEL.

Andrew Gray, a reporter, surrendered to an indictment
charging him with wilfully and maliciously publishing a
libel upon Mr. Richard Henry Phillips.

The defendant, who occupied a seat near his counsel,
pleaded not guilty, and also justification.

Mr. Metcalfe appeared for the prosecution, and Mr.
Giffard defended Mr. Gray.
The libel in question appeared in the Weekly limes news-
paper, and reflected on the character of the prosecutor, a
horse-dealer, residing near liensal-green, and also accused
him of having administered poison to his wife.

The case was proceeding when we went to press.
