DANGEROUS AND FURIOUS DRIVING IN A PUBLIC ROAD.
—Frederick Bentley, a carter and driver in the service of
Mr. Wright, a- baker and wedding-cake maker in the
Commercial-road, and endangering the lives and limbs of
passengers.

Thomas Barnes, a police-sergeant, No. 10 LT, said he
found the prisoner drunk and driving a van and two horses
along the Whitechapel-road, near the Church, ;esterday
evening between the hours of seven and eight o'clock.
The prisoner was driving at a furious and reckless pace,
and created much alarm. Several persons were nearly run
over. The prisoner had been driving the horses and van
up and down the road for his own amusement.

Jobson Robson said he was driving a horse and cart
along the Whitechapel-road, and the prisoner drove
against his cart three times, and asked him how he liked
it. The side of the cart was broken by these repeated
collisions. The prisoner was not on the proper side of
the road, and abused and swore at him.

Mr. Paget said the prisoner's master could be sued for
the damage done to the cart, and would most probably
have to pay damages.
The prisoner denied that he was drunk last night, and
said his horses were very spirited ones. He called a wit-
ness named Robert Edward Stammers, who said ho had a
glass of ale with the prisoner, who was sober.
Mr. Paget was quite satisfied the prisoner was ine-
brTiahteedp, thateannadlty
wasli paid.e was driving furiously. He sentenced
the prisoner to pay a fine of 405., or be imprisoned 14 days.

MARKETS.---I his Day.

----~-

MARK LANL•

Coastwise and by land-carriage the arrivals of wheat
fresh up to our market to day from Essex and Kent were
only moderate, and in but middling condition. As regards
fine parcels the trade ruled firm, and Monday's advance
was well supported, but for inferior qualities the demand
was inactive.

In foroign wheat tho transactions wore to a fair extent
at fully late quotations. The show of samples was toler-
ably good.

A fair average business was passing in floating cargoes
of grain on former terms.

Fine barley was scarce and quite as dear as on Monday.
Grinding and distilling sorts, although unaltered in value,
met with little attention.
Malt was firm in price, with a fair inquiry.
Good and fine oats were in request at full prices; other-
wise, the trade was heavy.
Both beans and peas were steady in value, and the de-
mand for them was &M. Tho quantity on offer was
limited.
Flour was firm on former terms.
