CRIMINAL COURT.-(THIS DAY.)

OLD COURT.
(Before Mr. Justice Erle.)
tURGLARY.

Joint Johnson, 35, and James Read, were indicted for
burglariously entering the dwelling-house of James Jewell.
The prisoners pleaded guilty.

It appeared that the prisoners, having succeeded in effect-
ing an entry into the house, packed up a considerable quan-
tity of goods ready for removal, but previous to taking their
departure they sat down in the kitchen, and having found
some wine, began regaling themselves, when they were
12} discovered.

Read was sentenced to one, and Johnson to two, years'
imptisonment, with hard labour.

CUTTING AND WOUNDING.

A young man, named Sullivan, who wore the uniform of
the Royal Artillery, was indicted for cutting and wounding
Nicholas Barnes, with intent, &c.
The prisoner pleaded not guilty.

Mr. Frank Talfourd conducted the prosecution.
Nicholas Barnes said—l was in Leather-lane on Saturday
night, the 17th of October, about half-past 12, when I saw
a crowd of persons assembled. I went up to see what
was the matter, and there saw two men knocking
a woman about. I interfered to protect her, when I
received a blow that felled me to the ground. On getting
up again'l called them cowards for ill-using the woman,
when one of them struck me again and blood flowed from
my cheek. I was taken to the hospital, where a blade of a
knife was taken therefrom. I don't know the person who
struck me.

Sarah Wood—l live at Baldwin's-gardens. I recollect
Sunday, the 17th. I heard a woman scream. I saw a man
had been fighting, and the only persons near were the
policeman, the prisoner, and a boy. I saw the prosecutor
reeling. He staggered towards the prisoner, when I saw
him raise his hand and strike him in the face with a knife.
I saw the knife in his hand, and the blood from the man's
face went on my dress. I know the prisoner is the man
by the peculiarity of his dress. I did not go before the ma-
gistrate on the first examination, because I disliked to in-
terfere in such matters. lam certain the prisoner is the
man who struck the blow. When he had done so he
said, " I've done for the ---;" and ran away.
Mr. Justice Erle—Have you any question to ask the
witness ?

Prisoner (to witness)—How do you know I'm the man ?
Witness—l know you by your dress.
Mr. Justice Erle—Have you any more questions to put ?
Prisoner—No, my lord. I've only to say that the
woman's purging herself. (Laughter.)
Elizabeth Ready—l live in Baldwin's-gardens. On Sun-
day morning I saw there had been a fight, and I saw the
prisoner run away after he had struck the prosecutor with
a knife. lam certain the prisoner is the man that ran past
me. I know him by his dress. The red strip in the pri-
soner's trousers particularly attracted my attention.
William Dayman, police-constable, said—l was on duty
in Baldwin's-gardens at the time the man was stabbed.
From what I was told about a man having been stabbed,
I went into Holborn and found the prisoner in company
with his brother. I told them I wanted them for stabbing
a man, and they said " It's all right, governor, we are not
the men." I said, " You must come to the station, and if
you are not the men you will be let go." They refused to
accompany me to the station, and I was compelled to ob-
tain assistance before I could convey them there. I re-
ceived the blade of the knife I produced from my sergeant.
He told me it was taken from the man's cheek.
The prisoner, in his defence, said he was not the man who
struck the blow. His brother was the person who stabbed
the prosecutor, and he was ready to own it.

The jury found the prisoner guilty of felony.
Mr. Justice Erle said he did not think he should be doing
his duty if he did not pass upon the prisoner a severe sen-
tence, as he had been convicted on the clearest evidence of
having maliciously stabbed a man who was engaged in a
praiseworthy object—viz., rescuing a woman from violence.
The sentence of the Court was, that he be kept in penal
servitude for the term of four years.

THIRD COURT.
(Before the Common Sergeant.)
STEALING A COPPER COFFIN.

James List and William Savill were indicted fcr feloni-
ously breaking and entering the church of St. John's,
Stratford, and stealing therefrom a copper coffin and a
leaden coffin, the property of Jabez Leff.
The prisoner List pleaded guilty, and Savill not guilty.
Mr. Robinson, who appeared to, prosecute the prisoners,
stated the case. It appeared that the prisoners were grave-
diggers to the parish. In 1850 a gentleman named Taylor
was buried in a copper coffin, which, on an examination of
the vaults a short time ago, was discovered to have been
stolen. He proposed to call up the prisoner List to give an
account of the transaction.

The prisoner List then left the dock and took his station
in the witness-box. He then gave a description of the
manner in which Savill and himself entered the vault and
broke open the coffins, and other details of a most revolting
description.
Mr. Cradock said—l am sexton at Stratford church.
Savill was a gravedigger, and List assisted him. When
once the wooden door was open access was obtained to all
the vaults. The outer door of the vault was never left open
all night. I was present on the 23d of September, when the
vault was examined. I discovered the vault had been
broken open the day before. In consequence of the talk in
the neighbourhood I went down into the vault and found
the wall had been broken down, some coffins had been
broken open, and a copper coffin had been stolen.
Cross-examined by Mr. Atkinson—l was absent from
one of the examinations of the prisoners before the magis-
trate. I went with Biggs, the clerk of the church, to see
List, one of the prisoners. We had no particular object in
going. We had known him a long time. We walked three
miles to see the prisoner. We had no other object than to
see how he was. I did not say to him, "If you don't give
evidence we shall lose our situations." I will be on my oath
that neither I nor Biggs ever asked the prisoner to confess.
We considered the whole business was very unpleasant, and
we said so. We were with List about a quarter of an hour.
When Biggs went in, he said, "Jamie, how are you ? this
is a bad job both for me and Mr. Cradock. I never should
have done it but for Savill, and I wished I had never seen
him." He said he was working in the graveyard in June,
when Savill came up and said, " What do you think of
having Taylor's coffin ?" He said at first, " I'll have nothing
to do with it," but, unfortunately, he said he assented, and
went and got some tools, and Taylor's coffin was opened.
The churchwardens attached blame to myself.
By Mr. Metcalfe—l never held out any inducement for
the prisoner to confess to a crime he had not committed.
William Wallis said—l am a bricklayer, residing at
Stratford. I recollect the funeral of Dr. Samuel Taylor in
1850. I was employed to brick up the vault. When I
bricked up the vault there were two coffins there.
James Bogden—l am a bricklayer. I was also employed
in the vault izt 1850. I saw the coffins there then quite
safe.
William Strange—/ live at Stratford. I know the pri-
soner Savill. I saw him ort the 24th of August last. I
was in my garden. His garden ianext to mine, and List's
next to his. He came up to me and said, " What do you
think I have had thrown in my teeth to-day t" I said, " I
don't know ;" and he then said fie had been accused of steal-
ing a copper coffin from underneath Stratford Chun*. He
then pointed to Lists' house, and said, "He's the --.ti e 4
stole the:coffin, and I'm the that sold it. I don't care
about myself, as I know I shall be transported." After he
stole the coffin he whitewashed it over.
Several other witnesses having been examined,
The Common Sergeant summed up.
The jury had not returned their verdict when we went to
press.
