CRIMINAL COURT--THIS DAY,

Charles Patterson, who had been convicted for uttering
a forged £5 note, to Mr. Wright, of Camberwell, was sen-
tenced to 6 years' penal servitude.
David Hayes, 34, a painter, who pleaded guilty to the
charge of uttering a forged £5 note, was sentenced to eight
years' penal servitude.
Henry Dufaur, a foreigner, described as a clerk, convicted
of uttering a forged £5 note, was sentenced to six years'
penal servitude.
Thomas Jarvis, who pleaded guilty to a similar charge,
was sentenced to six years' penal servitude.
Eliza Clarke, convicted of uttering a forged one pound
Scotch bank-note, was sentenced to 18 months' imprison-
ment.

He was sentenced to 18 months' imprisonment.

FOURTH COURT.
(Before Mr. Kerr.)
GAROTTE ROBBERY.
Michael Devine pleaded guilty to a garotte robbery in
Shoreditch.
Mr. Daly prosecuted ; Mr. Dickie defended.
In a scuffle which ensued at the time of the robbery, the
hats of the prJsecutor and the prisoner were knocked off,
and the prisoner picked up the prosecutor's hat, and when
at the station-house the hat was identified as the prosecu-
tors ; otherwise Devine was not identified.
Sentence, 12 months' imprisonment.
ASSAULTING A WIFE.
James Burton was indicted for feloniously assaulting his
wife with intent, &c.

The prisoner and his wife had only been married two
years, there being one child, The wife separated from her
husband on the ground of his alleged cruelty towards her;
and on the day the assault took place the parties met in
Phenix-street, Brick-lane, where the prisoner lived, and
carried on the business of a shoemaker. Although gene-
rally a well-conducted man, the prisoner had been drinking,
and on the refusal of the wife to return home he struck
her with a shoemaker's knife and inflicted two wounds on
her neck. Assistance being at hand, tht) woman was
rescued and the prisoner was given into custody.
•Several witnesses gave the prisoner a good character.
The jury found the prisoner guilty, but strongly recom-
mended him to mercy.
Sentence deferred till next session.
_ _

Frederick Dickinson, pugilist, and John Harrington
were charged with a robbery with violence, and stealing a
gold chain, value £6, from William Tidy.
It appeared that a quarrel took place at the White Lion
public •house, Stepney, and the chain was missed after a
scuffle.
The jury acquitted both prisoners.

DARING HOUsEBREAKING 47
TRANMERE.

Yesterday afternoon a case of housebreaking oc-
- curred at Lower Tranulere, accompanied with daring
impudence and brutality on the part of the thieves
not often heard of in that locality. About half-past
3 o'clock, a lady who resides in a house not far from
the railway noticed three men lounging about near
the residence of Mr. Arthur, one of the Sea Bank
villas, and was induced to watch them. She saw one
of these men proceed to the rear of the premises,
and enter by the back door, and shortly afterwards
the two other men, who had remained in the front
of the house, entered by the front door, Thinking
there was something suspicious in this, she sent her
daughter across to the house of Mr. Edward Cords,
joiner and builder, whose residence is in the imme-
diate vicinity of Mr. Arthur's, and to whom
Sea Bank Villas belong.. On hearing what had
taken place, Mr. Corns at once went to the house
in question, and found the
_three men in the sitting
room. The moment Mr. Cords made his appear-
ance the fellows pretended to be bailiffs come to
" take possession," and one of them took out a book
and began writing, as though he was taking an
ni
inventory. Mr. Cor
s nquired their business there
and offered to give them every or any information
they required. The scoundrels made no reply, but
taking life-preservers from their pockets, they made
a murderous assault on the unfortunate gentleman,
beating him about the head and face most unmerci-
fully. He shouted murder with all his might, and
fortunately for him his cries were heard by some of
his workmen and the neighbours, who rushed to
the rescue. Finding they were in danger, the
cowardly assailants beat a retreat, running in
different directions. Two of them bolted from
the house by the front door across the ad-
joining fields, pursued by the workmen and other
people, who raised a hue and cry that attracted
general attention. Several of the county police were
on duty in the neighbourhood at the time, and joined
in the pursuit. One of the housebreakers was appre-
hended by police officer No. 110 (Potts) in the Old
Chester-road, and another by No. 198 (Jas. Oakes)
at the corner of Queen-street. The third man made
his exit by the back door of Mr. Arthur's house, and
succeeded in effecting his escape. The police made
every exertion to capture him, but up to a late
hour last night they had not been successful. As-
sistance was rendered to Mr, Corris as soon as pos-
sible. He was found covered with blood, and we
regret to state that he has sustained great injury
—a severe contused wound on the left side of the
head, another contused wound on the shoulder, and
others on various parts of the body; and he has lost
a considerable quantity of blood. Dr. Gorst and
other medical gentlemen were speedily in attendance
upon him, and it is satisfactory to know that no
immediate danger is anticipated. It seems that at
the time their house was entered Mr. and Mrs.
Arthur had gone from home, and shortly after they
left the servant also went out, so that it is evident
the scoundrels had been lounging about in the
vicinity, and had watched for an opportunity of
committing the depredation unmolested by the in-
mates. Though they had been but a few minutes
in the house they had ransacked a portion of it, and
carried off a quantity of jewellery, which they
dropped in their flight, and it was taken possession
of by the police. The two captured men were con-
veyed to the county lock-up, where they still re-
main. They are respectably dressed, but they are
no doubt well acquainted with this kind of busi-
ness. A number of skeleton keys were found upon
one of them, we understand. They refuse to give
their names. The life preservers with which they
attacked Mr. Cords are in the hands of the police.

MARKETS---THIS DAY.

MARK-LANE.

There was a moderate, but by no means extensive show
of samples of English wheat on sale here to-day, and the
trade was in a sluggish state for all qualities at fully Mon-
day's fall in the currencies of is to 2s per quarter.
With foreign wheat the market was well supplied. There
was no improvement in the demand for any description, yet
no quotable change took place in prices, compared with
Monday.
A fair business was doing in cargoes of grain afloat, on
about former terms.

Barley moved off heavily, and the quotations had a
downward tendency.
The inquiry for malt was confined to actual wants at late
rates.

Good and fine oats were in steady request at full quota-
tions; but inferior qualities sold slowly on former terms.
There was a large supply of for3iga on sale.
Beans and peas were firm at full prices.
The flour trade was ia a sluggish state, at quite the re-
cent fall in the quotations.
