THE COUNTRY MARKETS.

WAKEFIELD, APRIL 19. There is no change in the
value of wheat, but the trade is languid. Millers still confine
their purchases to immediate wants. Prime barley is wanted.,
and fully maintains its previous value. Oats and shelling mot
with more attention. Beans are in slow request, and unaltered
in value.

better to-day, foralthough the arrangement between the Lon-
don and North• Western and North Staffordshire Companies

proved the stock of the latter. Ultimately, however, there
is little doubt entertained but the settlement of the litiga-
tion, which has been so long in progress, will be mutually
advantageous to the companies. Midlands were done to• day
several times over at 33, and North Staffordshires at 13 3-16
and 1.0% dis.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.
MANSION-HOUSE.
Mr. Cope, the governor of Newgate, attended be-
fore the Lord Mayor with John James Bezer, who
was,, at the session of the Central Criminal Court held
in August, 1848, convicted of sedition and sentenced
to pay a fine of 101., to be imprisoned in the gaol of
Newgate two. years, and to enter into recognizances
in t ae sum of 1001., with two sureties in the sum of
501. each, to keep the peace and be of good behaviour
towards all her Majesty's liege subjects for five years
then next ensuing, and to be further imprisoned until
such fine be paid and such recognizances entered into.
Bezer, it will be recollected, was one of several
who had addressed. a number of persons in the theatre
in Atilton-street, in which, about the period stated in
the commitment, it was the practise of the disaffected
to ass emble and discuss political questions most mis-
chievously.
Mr . Cope, at the same time that he exhibited the
original order of the court, signed by Mr. Clarke, the
clerk of the peace, containing the statement of the of-
fence and its penalty, produced the Queen's original
pardon, " Granted in consideration of some circum-
static es humbly represented to her Majesty, and upon
con iLtion of his finding securities for his good beha-
viour as required by his sentence."
13ezer then brought forward two sureties, whom
Mr. Goodman, the chief clerk to the Lord Mayor,
exa n lined, and his Lordship accepted as bail, and the
origr.nal order of the court and the pardon were re-
turn ed to the governor.
13:4 zer was then discharged from custody.
Charles Lawrence, a private in the 30th Regiment,
was: brought up in the custody of Batchelor, 441,
ch:srged with having. drawn his bayonet upon some
pa rsons in King William-street.
The policeman, when upon duty at twenty minutes
to nine o'clock on Thursday night,
saw a mob, con-
sisting of from 200 to 300 people, in King William-
street, near Abchurch-lane, and amongst them the
prisoneT with his bayonet drawn, flourishing it over
his head, and attempting to stab the bystanders. The
soldier we's very drunk, and the policeman got behind
him, and, watching for a proper opportunity, seized
him and wrested the weapon from his hand. The
soldier endeavoured, on the way to the station-house,
to escape from custody, and kicked at and struggled
with the pol iceman and two or three others of the
force, who g,ssisted in tugging him along. The regi-
ment had marched out of town without knowing
anything a bout the prisoner, who will, of course, be
returned as a deserter.
The Lot ZD MAYOR—What have you to say to this,
prisoner ? The soldier—l do not remember any-
thing about it, my Lord, I was so drunk. I had
been out to see my brother, and I must have been
greatly provoked before I drew my bayonet.
Some observations having been made upon the fact,
that no twithstanding the order issued years ago_
that soldiers should not wear side-arms—they were
comet Imes to be seen in the streets, not only with
bayor ,etc by their sides, but in their hands, it was
stated to his Lordship that the prisoner had been bil-
letted in Surrey, and that it was only. when they were
in bat racks that the prohibition was In force.
Th e prisoner was sentenced to imprisonment in
3 3ridowell for one month.
A gentleman, named Budd, of Castlebaynard
V i'ard, ha nded to the Lord Mayor a purse, contain-
ing money, which he had found near the Bank, be-
tween one and two o'clock on Thursday, and sug-
gested that if it should not be owned his Lordship
would :apply the contents to the poor-box.
MARLBOROUGH-STREET.
ATTACK ON AN ALLEGED GasuriG-iiousE.--Fifteen
p 4,rsons were charged by the police with having been
fo and in a common gaming-house, No. 64, St.
Ja st reet.
Superintendent of the D division (Mr. yughes)
pr( educed the authority from the Com.s-street. Onmissioners to
ent ,er the house, No. 64, St. James
Fr I.day, about one in the morning, witness went to the
hoi, 'se in question with a pone of constables armed
wit housebreaking implements, and entered the pas-
sag( where he found four doors. The constables got
thro ugh two doors without difficulty, but found the
thiru l door fastened. In this door was a small open-

ing, through which the police were discovered by a
man on the other side, who immediately quitted the
passage. An order was given to force this door
with sledge-hammers, which, having been done, the
gaslights were put out by some one connected
with the house. The fourth door was next assailed,
but being constructed with inch plank, bound with
iron, and secured with heavy bolts, it resisted the
efforts of the police. After ten minutes' unavailing
battery, the door was opened from the inside. The
police went up to the first floor, and there found all
the defendants except Woodward, who was in another
room. Some of the party were engaged in a game
of billiards—others were having supper. The Su-
perintendent, when he entered the room, told the de-
fendants he had authority from the commissioners of
the police to enter the house, and to take all persons
found therein, on the ground that they were there for
au unlawful purpose. The defendants were taken to
the station-house and searched. Upwards of 4001.
was found among them, and on Richards were disco-
vered bills and I 0 U's for nearly 2,000/. The house
was searched in which the defendants were found,
but no gaming implements whatever were discovered.
Mr. Clarkson, who was retained fur the defendants,
said there was not the slightest evidence to show that
the defendants were assembled for any unlawful pur-
pose ; and therefore he claimed their discharge from
custody.
Mr. HARDWICK decided that the evidence did not
support the charge. There was nothing to prove
that anything illegal was going on in the house, al-
though the mode in which the doors were secured was
significant that something was going on, but that was
not evidence enough to make out a case of gaming.
If cards, dice, or other gaming implements had been
produced, that would have been direct evidence of the
parties being assembled there for the purpose of gam-
ing. In the absence of such evidence he must order
the defendants to be discharged.
