MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

A SCENE IN THE HAYMARKET.-Mr. Charles Barnes,
of 17, Albert-terrace, Islington, Mr. John Griffiths, medi-
cal student, same address, and Clara Norton, prostitute, of
90, Wardour-street, were charged with being drunk and
creating a disturbance in the Haymarket, and Barnes was
further charged with assaulting James Newnham, 69 C.
Matthew Hill, 126 C, said—About 4 o'clock this morning
I saw a crowd of about 50 persons in the Haymarket, and
heard the two male defendants making a great noise and
flourishing their sticks about. They refused to leave, called
me "a snob," and Griffiths said he was a member of
Parliament. I took Griffiths into custody, and then Barnes
came up and seized me by the collar. 96 C then came to
my assistance, and Barnes struck him with his stick. They
then took the male defendants into custody, and on the road
Barnes became very obstreperous, and it required two or
three constables to take them to the station. On the way,
while 96 C was picking up Barnes, the female came up and
knocked off his hat.

Barnes—Was I drunk ?
Constable—Yes:

Newnham, 96 C, said—l tried to get Griffiths away, and
he said, " Don't you know I am a member of Parliament,
and don't care for such as you." Barnes then came up,
and putting himself into a fighting attitude, said, " You
take me ?" I then took Barnes, when he threw himself d own
and seized the iron railings. Barnes then struck me, and
I took the stick from him. While I was picking up Barnes
the female tried to knock my hat off, that being a common
thing of a night in rows in the Haymarket, and having got
ccnstables' hats off, the mob kick them about.
Griffiths—l did not say I Was a member of Parliament;
I only said I knew one.

Barnes—We had no business to be taken into custody.
Inspector Bowles—The men were both drunk.
Barnes—l don't want to say anything further.
Mr. Tyrwhitt fined Barnes the insignificant sum of ss.
or nine days, and discharged he others.

Mr. Francis Henry Harrison, of 25, Clarges-street, was
also charged with creating a disturbance and being drunk
in Piccadilly. _ .

Sergeant Horsey, 6 C, having stated the case, Mr. Tyr
whitt discharged the defendant,

THIS DAYS MARKETS.

CORN EXCHANGE.

The supply of English wheat on sale here to-day was
much restricted. Fine samples moved off steadily, at full
quotations ; otherwise the trade was in a sluggish state, at
previous currencies. _

We were well supplied with foreign wheat. In most de-
scriptions a fair but far from extensive business was trans-
acted, at Monday's prices.

Floating cargoes of grain were in moderate request. In
their value no change took place.
All kinds of barley were a dull sale, at barely late rates.
The transactions in mal; were very moderate, yet prices
ruled tolerably firm.

Fine samples of oats maintained their value ; but inferior
qualities were very dull.

Both beans and peas moved off slowly, at drooping
prices,

Good and fine flour was it fair request, at full quotations.
Other kinds, however, ruled dull.
