CHARGE OF MANSLAUGHTER.—Jarnes Payne, aged 20, a
carman of No. 16, Martha-street, Cambridge-heath,
Bethnal-green, was brought before Mr. Partridge charged
with causing the death of Adelaide Myers, a girl aged 12
years, in Goodman's-yard, Minories.

Yesterday evening about 7 o'clock the prisoner was
driving a horse and van in Goodman's-yard at the pace of
about five miles an hour. The deceased ran from the side
of the street with a view of crossing the roal, and was
knocked down, the wheels of the van went over the child's
body, and she was killed. The witnesses were of opinion
no blame could be attached to the prisoner, and that the
occurrence was purely accidental. The prisoner was
driving carefully.

Mr. Partridge liberated the prisoner on his own recog-
nisances until Thursday next, and said a coroner's in-
quest would be held on the body, and the case was one
which ought to be fully investigated.

EMBEZZLEMENT.-11110MaS Boswell, a young man, was
brought before Mr. Partridge charged with fraudulently
appropriating to his own use various sums of money he had
received for and on account of Mrs. Catherine Green, a re-
spectable widow, carrying on the business of a baker and
cornchandler in High-street, Shadwell.
The prisoner had been in the service of Mrs. Green for
twelve months. She had behaved very liberally towards
him, and he had acted with gross ingratitude and plun-
dered her. In February be robbed her of £3 lls., and she
forgave him. Ho had recently defrauded her of various sums
of money ho received of customers for bread supplied by
Mrs. Green. Two cases were gone into. He received 18s.
Tid. of a Mrs. Fleming, and £1 6s. 3d. of Mrs. Myers. He
had not accounted to his mistress for either sum. He told
a police-constable that if Mrs. Green thought what was
done was embezzlement she was very much mistaken, and
that ho had lost the money out of his pocket.
Mr. Partridge committed the prisoner for trial.

In all descriptions sales progressed slowly, at barely Mon-
day's currency.
Floating cargoes of grain were in limited request, at
drooping prices.

the show of home-grown produce was very moderate.
