Central Criminal Court—This Day.

OLD COURT.
(Before Mr. Justice Lush.)
TIIE ST. GILES'S MURDER.

The trial of John Richard Jeffreys having been placed at
the top of the list of cases to bo taken this morning, Mr•
Daly made an application for the postpinement of the
trial until to-morrow, as the lino of defence he intended to
take required ho presence of certain witnesses, whose at-
tendance could not be procured until to-morrow.
The learned judge granted the application. _

The prisoner, or; being arraigned on the charge of wil-
fully murdering his son, Richard Arthur Jeffroys, pleaded
not guilty.

THE MURDER IN SOMERS TOWN.

Mary Butcher, 35, married, was placed at the bar on the
charge of wilfully murdering Emma Butcher.

Mr. Gibson, the surgeon—of Newgato, stated that the
prisoner was in such a state of mind as to render her in-
capable of understanding the charge.

The learned judge then ordered her to be detained in
custody during her Majesty's pleasure. _

Joseph Gairdelli, Timothy Nolan, and Edward Cane
were indicted for feloniously wounding William Paul with
intent to murder him.

The prosecutor and the prisoners it appeared had
formerly had a quarrel, and on the 12th of August the pri-
soners were standing at the corner of the Euston-road and
Tottenham-court-road when the prosecutor came up and
the old quarrel was resumed, and during which the pro-
secutor was stabbed in the stomach, as he alleged, by
Gairdelli. The injury was of a very serious description,
and the prosecutor was conveyed to the University,
Hospital, where he remained some time, his life being in
considerable danger.

The jury acquitted Cane and Nolan, but found Gairdelli
guilty
Tho learned Judge sentenced the prisoner to 10 years,
penal servitude.

NEW COURT.
(Before the Common Sergeant.)

Frederick Doggan, 30, labourer, a strange, melancholy-
looking man, was indicted for feloniously and unlawfully
attempting to set fire to divers matters and things in the
dwelling-house of William Cooper.
Mr. Metcalfe and Mr. Straight prosecuted.
It appeared that the prosecutor keeps the post-office, 26,
Oxford-street, and for some time previously to the appre-
hension of the prisoner there was found in the letter-box
matches partly burnt, burnt paper, and straw. In conse-
quence of this the police were set upon the watch, and they
saw the prisoner go up to the post-box, having matches
and some straw in his hand.

Mr. Gibson, tho gaol surgeon, was examined, and said
that ho was clearly insane, and not responsible for his ac-
tions.

The jury then found the prisoner not guilty, on the
ground of insanity.
Arthur Godfrey, 25, clerk, a well-dressed man, pleaded
guilty to an indictment for breaking and entering the
dwelling-house of William Blott, and stealing £1 3s. Gd.
Mr. Lilley, who appeared for the prisoner, offered a few
remarks in mitigation of sentence. The prisoner was
again indicted fur a burglary in the dwelling-house of
Elizabeth Strong, and stealing a watch, two brooches, and
other articles.

Mr. Cooper prosecuted.
In this case the prosecutor lived at New-cross, and about
a week before the robbery the prisoner was seen by two
ladies near the prosecutrix's house. When the prisoner
was taken into custody a quantity of housebreaking imple-
ments were found in his possession.
Sentenced to 18 months' imprisonment.

THIRD COURT.
(Before Mr. Commissioner Kerr.)
HIGIIWAY ROBBERY.

Michael Bryan, 22, labourer, a ferocious-looking man,
was indicted for highway robbery.
The prosecutrix, a lady named Johanna Hefferman, was
walking along Shoreditch when the prisoner came in front
of her and made a snatch at her watch chain, and succeeded
in getting it away, and then ran off into a very notorious
part of the neighbourhood and escaped. He was, however,
apprehended by the police about a week afterwards.
The prisoner conducted his own case, and cross-
examined the witnesses at great length.

The jury found tho prisoner guilty.
Tho learned.judgo sentenced the prisoner to five years'
penal servitude, and to receive 40 lashes with a thing
commonly called a " cat."

MARKETS. --This Day.

MARK LAN b.

Tho quantity of home-grown wheat received fresh up to
our market to-day coastwise and by land carriage was only
moderate, but, generally speaking, in good condition. The
transactions in all qualities were to a moderato extent at
Monday's advance in the currencies.
We were well but not heavily supplied with foreign
wheat. The demand ruled steady, and the late advance in
prices was supported..

Floating cargoes of grain commanded full prices, with a
fair inquiry. _ _

The supply of foreign barley was only moderate, and the
show, of English produce was trifling. All kinds were in
steady request at full prices.
_ _ _

Malt was firm on former terms.

In oats a fair average business was passing at about late
rates. The supply was chiefly composed of foreign parcels.
Both beans and peas were firm in price, with a fair de-
mand. The quantity on offer was small.
Flour was firm at Monday's quotations.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.—This Day.

MANSION-HOUSE.

STEALTNG HOPS.—James Wood, a packing-case manu-
facturer, was charged, before Alderman Lusk, M.P., with
stealing 171bs. of hops.

Watson, one of the City detectives, said that about seven
o'clock last evening ho saw the prisoner in Cooper-road,
Tower-hill, and had noticed him about the neighbourhood
before. The prisoner was talking to another man at the
door of Messrs. Toolony and Duggots, hop merchants, in
that road. The prisoner went away, but returned, and ho
saw him speaking to a man named Ellwell at the door of
the same premises, and then take from behind the door a
sack, which he threw into a cart that was waiting at the
Prino, Albert public-house, about 20 yards distant. He
immediately jumped up on the' Cart, and caught hold of
tho prisoner, who endeaohred to escape on the opposite
side of the cart. He opened the bag and found it contained
tho hops in question. He told the prisoner he was a police
officer, and ho (prisoner) said, " It is not stolen and I have
got a receipt for it in my pocket. I bought it of a rm.n this
morning at Tower-hill." He then took him to the station,
and, ou searching him, found receipts for hops for 1852,
1853, and 1854. He said he had got a receipt for the hops,
and that he had them in the cart all the day.
Mr. Alderman Lusk said that was very important ad-
mission on the part of the prisoner, because you saw him
take the bag.

Watson said that he found also a small parcel of hops on
the prisoner.

The prisoner contradicted the officer as to having stated
to him that he had had the hops in the cart all day.
Mr. F. William Dugget said that he was in partnership
with Mr. Toolony, who was then out of town, and ho knew
nothing of the transaction except from the police con-
stable. He could not identify the hops as being the pro-
perty of the firm. They were mixed, some being old and
some now, and they had both on their premises. He was
not proparod to express an opinion as to the complicity of
Elwell in the transaction, but after the evidence of the
officer ho felt bound as a duty to the public to prosecute
him. His partner had received information about a fort"-
night ago, to the effect that some hops had been removed
from the premises without permission.
Ellwile, who was in the court, was then placed, and
Mr. Duggett formally repeated his statement. The priso-
ner Elwell was in the service of the firm for three months;
sne recetvea an excellent character from him. He was
foreman, and had to attend to the warehouse, but it formed
no part of his duty to sell any of the hops.
George Taylor, a wheelwright, said that he had known
Wood for several year; and had done some jobs for him:
Last evening, about half-past six o'clock, Wood asked him
to come with his cart to Cooper's road, as he wanted hiin
to remove something. He went to the Prince Albert pub-
lichouse to light his pipe, and was not there more than
about three minute; and when he wont out he found Wood
in the custody of the officer.
The prisoners were remanded till Tuesday, and the
worthy alderman refused the application of Wood to be
admitted to bail.
