A JUMP FROM A WINDOW IN TOWER-HILL.—Timothy
Sullivan, a tall soldier-like looking fellow, about 23 years
of age, a native of the Emerald Isle, who has been through
a variety of adventures, was brought before Mr. Yardley,
charged with stealing a bundle of clothing from the dwell-
ing-house of Mr. George Osman, of No. 7, King-street,
Tower-hill.

On the sth of last month the prisoner was brought to the
prosecutor's house by a recruiting sergeant of the 7th
Dragoons, who had enlisted him and given him the Queen's
shilling and a supper on the same day. The sergeant, who
was congratulating himself on having enlisted a stal-
wart, intelligent, and military looking man, asked
the prosecutor to furnish the recruit with a good bed, and
Sullivan was ushered into a room on the first floor. The
prosecutor knocked at the door of the prisoner's room next
morning ; no answer was returned, and Mr: Osman peeped
through the keyhole and found the window open. The
door was locked inside, and Mr. Osman burst it open and
missed the prisoner, who had in the course of the night
jumped on to Tower-hill, a depth of 16 or 17 feet, taking
with him it black leather bag, containing a coat, hat, hand-
kerchief, and ether things worth £3. They were in the
room when the prisoner was shown into it. Yesterday the
prisoner was apprehended as a deserter, by Stimpson,
a police-sergeant, No. 21 K, who found nothing
upon him. The recruiting sergeant did not claiaa
the prisoner, who was a deserter from another
regiment when he enlisted a second time. He had been
tried and punished for desertion, and the letter D was
branded on his breast.

The prisoner plead guilty.
Mr. Yardley—Hew did the prisoner get out of the room?
The door was locked inside.

Stimpson—He jumped from the window on to Tower-
hill. The window at the back of the house opens on to
Tower-hill.

Mr. Yardley said the army would not have the prisoner,
and sentenced him to four months' imprisonment and hard
labour for the robbery.

METROPOLITAN CATTLE MARKET.

The supply of beasts here to-day was very moderate.
Prime breeds moved off steadily, at quite Monday's cur-
rency ; otherwise the beef trade was in a sluggish state, on
former terms. We were fairly supplied with sheep. Downs
and half-breds were firm in price, but other breeds were in-
active, at late currencies. Lambs, the show'of which was
tolerably good, commanded previous rates, with a fair in-
quiry. Calves were steady, at Monday's quotations. Pigs
and mulch cows changed hands slowly, at unaltered rates.
