THAMES.

AN• UNGRATEFUL TRIEF.—Anue Neale, a young woman
of a diminutive stature, described as a prostitute, was
brought up on remand charged with stealing six shirts in-
trasted to a needlewoman named Mary Parker, living in
Hawkherd-buildings, Narrow-street, Limehouse, to make.
The complainant, who seemed in a very weak condition,
stated that she had the shirts to make about a fortnight
ago, for doing which she received three half-penca each.
After they were made she was about to take them to the
warehouse, when the prisoner, who on one occasion when
without a home was provided by her (complainant) with
one, happened to call. She observed to complainant that if
she would have no objection she (prisoner) would take them
to the warehouse. Complainant then gave them to her, but
she never went to the warehouse with them, and com-
plainant did not see her for some days, when she met her in
the street, and gave her into custody.
Magistrate—You have to pay for the loss of them P
Complainant—l shall, sir. But I've not had the means
yet ; and she knew I was almost starving.
Mr. Yardley having directed Mr. Weddle, the usher, to
give complainant 10s., asked the prisoner what she had
done with the shirts.

Prisoner—l have pawned them. (She refused to say
where she had pawned them, when she was remanded, to
give the police an opportunity of finding where they were
pawned.)

She was now asked where they were pawned, when she
replied, " Somewhere in Whitechapel."
The complainant, in answer to the magistrate, said that
she had not y€ t been able to pay for the shirts, and that
she was afraid she should lose her shop of work.
She was ordered to receive a sovereign from the poor-box.
The Magistrate observed to the prisoner that she had
acted most ungratefully towards the complainant, and that
he could not inflict a punishment adequate to her offence.
She was fined 15s. 6d., the value of the shirts, and £3
over and above the same, or in default, two months' im-
prisonment in the House of Correction.

TRADE DISPUTES. - Timothy Cocklin, Nassamstrect,
Limehouse, was charged with having violently assaulted
William Hancock, No. 24, Ropemaker's-fields, under the
following circumstances :

Complainant stated that the previous evening he was in
Gafford. street, Limehouse, when the prisoner came up to
him behind and without saying a word gave him a violent
blown with his fist between his shoulders, which nearly
stunned him. Complainant bad known him some time.
Magistrate---What did he strike you for? There must
be some cause for his doing so.
The complainant observed that he could only account for
it because some time ago he and the prisoner were asked
to do some job, whsn he did it for a lower price firm the
prisoner offered to do it for.

The prisoner admitted that this was the grievance.

The Magistrate said that __...
the prisoner had acted in a
cowardly manner towards the complainant, and observed
that in this country every one was free to dispose of his
labour as he pleased.

He was fined 305., or in default 14 days' imprisonment.

THIS DAY'S MARKETS.

CORN EXCHANGE.

Although the show of English wheat in our market, to-
day, was only moderate, no disposition was shown on the
part of the millers to purchase beyond immediate wants.
The amount of business doing was, therefore, limited, at
about Monday's decline in the quotations.
Foreign wheat—the supply of which was good—met 9,
dull inquiry, and, to have forced sales, lower rates must
have been submitted to. Floating cargoes met a dull in-

quiry.
Fine barley was scarce, and in request, at very full
prices ; but inferior parcels commanded very little attention
Most kinds of malt realised full currencies, but the de.
mand was by no mean active. _ _

Good sound oats sold steadily—other kinds slowly, at
late rates. The show of foreign was good.
Beans and peas realised extreme rates ; but flour was a
dull inquiry.
