HOW THE LAWS ARE RESPECTED IN SIIADWELL.—
Mary Ann Wayling, a bold masculine woman of the town,
about 40 years of age, wearing a pork-pie hat and feathers,
was brought before Mr. Benson, charged with assaulting
and wounding Jane Legg, the wife of a seaman.
The complainant, an industrious and respectable woman,
is dwelling at No. 1, Middle Shadwell, and keeps a general
shop there. Three weeks ago she prosecuted a disorderly
and savage woman for assaulting her and destroying a dog
belonging to her. Mr. Paget sentenced the prisoner to 14
days' imprisonment and hard labour. The complainant
had been subjected to the most unjust persecution ever
since she had given evidence from the roughs and
disorderlies in the neighbourhood; her life was threat-
ened, stones thrown at her, and her trade in-
jured by some very bed people loitering ttbettt her ,

MARK LANE.
Fresh up from Kent and Essex the arrivals of English
wheat of this year's growth have been very moderate, but
the quality of .the samples generally is good. There was
very little old wheat on offer, and for all kinds the trade
was heavy, at barely the reduced currency of Monday last.
There was a good show of foreign samples, for which the
demand was quite in retail; and in some instances less
money was accepted.
There have been moderate imports of barley, but the
quantity on offer was small. The, trade for all kinds was
firm, at fully late rates.
Floating cargoes of grain have been less active, and
pikes tend downwards.
Malt, the supply of which was good, moved off slowly
at about Monday's values.
There was an extensive show of oats on the stands,
and good sound corn sold steadily at previous terms, but
inferior parcels were rather easier.
Beans and peas were firm, and fully supported late
quotations.
We have no change to report in the value of either
town or country flour.
In seeds there is very little passing. Linseed and rape-
seed met a slow sale, and agricultural seeds were inactive.
Cakes were held at full currencies.
