HANTS.
MARWELL HALL, with its picturesque and valuable Domain, one
of the nstinguished and most desirable seats of the county par-
ticularly as to field sports (possessing considerable historical in-
terest), in the fine healthy district between Winchester and
Bishop's Waltham, and only tour miles from the Bishopstoke
Station. Also a smaller Residence, known as Blarwell Lodge.
MESSRS. DANIEL SMITH and SON will
submit to PUBLIC SALE, in the ensuing summer, in
three o: four lots (unless an acceptable offer shall be previously made
t,y private treaty, and which will be entertained for the entire pro-
perty, or for the house and a portion of the lands).
The above most desirable ESTATE, comprising a capital and
handsome mansion, erected about thirty-six years since on the site
of the ohl hall of " Merewelle" (of which some curious relies have
been preserved in the new house), with the demesne land and
valuable farms. It is in the Ole English or Tudor style, and con-
tains lofty rooms and halls of noble dimensions. It presents a
handsome elevation, relieved by a bold portecochere, and the east
front'opens to an expansive lawn and grass terrace, extending to
some wooded grounds of a primitive wild character, and affording
delightful seclusion. It was here (then the property of her family)
that Henry TM. wedded Jane Seymour; and it was also visitel by
Charles 11. more than once. The house is in perfect repair, Most
substantially built, and the interior is admirably arranged. The
domestic offices are vary complete, and there are walled gardens
and orchards, and ample stabling and other outbuildings for a good
establishment ; but, compared with the influential character and
superior accommodation of the mansion, it is a place of very small
expense. The whole property embraces about 800 acres, all in high
order, with suitable farmhouses and homesteads, and an extensive
right of pasturage over the adjoining downs; but the tenure being
chiefly leasehold under Corpus Christi College, or copyhold, the tin-
mediate purchase money, compared with the extent, will be an easy
investment. It Is in the picturesque parish of Owlesbury, within
six miles of Winchester, within easy reach of three packs of hounds,
and is well stocked with game.
Particulars with plans will be published in due time, but, in the
interim orders to view the estate and full information may be ob-

report, which stated that the directors had very little to
communicate, from the fact that they were in treaty with the
corporation of the city of London, for the purchase of the
bridge, but as nothing definite had at present been settled,
they forbore from entering into any details. The statement
of accounts having been adopted, some routine business was
transacted, and the meeting broke up.

THE COUNTRY MARKETS.
IPSWICH, Mar 7.
The very heavy rains we have had for the last two or three
days, and the annual stock fair held this day, made the attend-
ance of farmers and others at market unusually small. The
animation manifested in London and other markets of note
was fully apparent in the prices here. Wheats sold readily at
an advance of 2s to 3s per quarter ; barley also sold quickly at
Is per quarter advance, owing to the weather still continuing
so favourable for malting. Other articles much the same, and
malt was more in demand.

Messrs. Taylor and Bright's Circular states :—The firm-

the week for all articles, and in wheat and choice samples of
barley Is advance has in some cases been paid. The weather
continues cold, and not very seasonable. Arrivals are mode-
rate. At to-day's market we had a fiir supply of wheat from
our owri farmers, and very little foreign. -There was a good
sale for best runs at Is to 2s more money than last week, and
a like advance was paid on fresh foreign ; farmers were gene-
rally asking wild prices. Fine Chevalier Saal barley and bold
samples of Danish are good to sell at is advance ; only such
qualities are now being used by the malsters, and thin samples
are neglected except for grinuing purposes, and for such the
demand is good. Beans in request at is more money, and few
offering. The same remark may be made of peas. Very
little passing in oats. The linseed market looting dull, and
but few transactions are reported. A good sale for linseed
cakes at the late decline. - No rapeseed on the market, except
fronithe Black 'Sea. Rape cakes 2s 6d per ten dearer. Bones

quarters of beans, 2,086 quarters of peas, 4,796 quarters of

importance we have to note are 2,276 quarters of wheat and
18,024 quarters of Indian corn, all to Ireland. The weather
having continued extremely cold and unseasonable, notwith-
standing the liberal supplies the trade has maintained a buoyant
tone, and prices have crept up Id to 2d per bushel on wheat, Id
per bushel on oats, Id per bushel on barley, and tid per sack
and barrel on flour. Indian corn has sold in considerable
quantities at 285 6d to 29s per quarter for prime yellow. At this
day's market there was a good attendance of the town and coun-
try trade, who purchased largely of wheat, chiefly middling quali •
ties, at an advance of fully 2d per 701 b on last Tuesday's prices.
Oats, both Irish and foreign, were in good demand, and fully
Id per 451 b dearer. Oatmeal realised 63 per load more money

Id to 2d per 601 b and 6d per quarter dearer. Peas net with
little attention at late rates. Flour moved off more freely than
for some time past, and an advance of is per sack and 6d per
barrel was generally established. There was only a moderate
business done in Indian corn at 28s (3d to 29s per quarter for
yellow, and 28s to 28s 6d per quarter for white.

COURT OF EXCHEQUER, May 7.
(Sittings in Banco.)
CLARK C. FEARGUS O'CONNOR, M.P.
In this case a plaint was entered in the county
court at Northampton, in the month of February
last, to recover from the defendant a sum of 4/. 19s.
9d., as money had and received by the defendant for
the use of the plaintiff. The plaint came on for hear-
ing before Mr. Wing, the judge of tbe county court,
some time in the month of March last, and it then
appeared that the plaintiff was one of the allottees of
the National Land Company, of which the defendant
is a director, and that a sum of 51. 4s. was paid by the
plaintiff for four shares, which sum, it was not de-
nied, had found its way to the bands of the defendant,
who acted as treasurer of the company. The defence

not the balance of any settled or liquidated partner-
ship account. The judge of the county court, how-
ever, overruled this objection, and made an order on
the defendant for payment of 41. 19s. 9d., and
71. Bs. ld. for costs. Before execution issued the de-
fendant obtained a writ of prohibition from the Petty
Bag-office in Chancery, directed to the judge of the
county court of Northampton, the effect of which
was to stay the proceedings upon the order made in
the county court. Upon a former day in the present
term a rule was obtained to show cause why the writ
of prohibition should not be quashed, upon the ground
that it was issued improvidently, and 'that the order
of the judge of the county court was made in a matter
not within his jurisdiction.

MIDDLES EX
SESSIONS, may 7.
(Before Mr. Sergeant ADAMS and a Bench of Ma-
gistrates.)
The A
the
morn-
ing at the Sessions House, Clerkenwell. There were
83 prisoners for trial, of whom 77 were charged with
croauynty of general Middlesex li quarter-sessionsddlese commenced
ed this
of the peace
for
felony.
The Learned JUDGE, in charging the grand jury,
said that on the present occasion there, was a slight
increase in the number of pfisoners committed for
trial, and he was glad to say that the dawn of a
better system for the treatment of juvenile criminals
was approaching.' He had great pleasure in inform-

ing them that there were now in operation some
experiments which he had no doubt would ba very
successful, and the success of which he hoped would
lead to the adoption of such experiments, as a system
—he alluded to the improvement of juvenile criminals
by industrial training. When the Parkhurst Prison
Act was about being passed s,,me ten years ego, a
clause was introduced by Lord Lyndhurst and Lord
Devon, the effect of which was to give the Govern-
ment the power of granting conditional par-
dons to such children under fourteen years
of age as were taken into the charge of
charitable and benevolent institutions with a view
to reformation, those institutions, or societies
having over such children the same authority
as that of a master over an apprentice; and that
clause at the time he considered to be a moat valuable
one; and for about six mopiths after the Act was
passed, it was acted upon and carried out with great
success. However the prisons inspectors impressed
upon the Government that these children were chil-
dren of the State, and not fit objects for the exercise
of private benevolence; and the consequence of this
was, that the clause he referred to became inopera-
tive. He alluded to this subject in a charge last year;
and though he was far from saying that that allusion
had called the attention of. the Government to it, this
he could say, and had great pleasure in saying, that
the plan was again in operation.. Sir George Grey,
the Secretary of State (than whom no man in Eng-
land desired more to apply an effeCtual remedy to this
serious evil), had directed a number of boys to be
sent from Parkhurst to the Philanthropic Farm
School, at Redhill, :to try the effects of the system
pursued there, and unquestionably the results would
be of- a most successful character. As showing the
manner in which opinions changed on popular sub-
jects, he might say that this change was now ap-
proved by the prisons inspectors by whom it was
before condemned, and thus it appeared that they now
saw the necessity of children being treated as chil-
dren, and not subjected to a penal discipline.
The grand jury then retired.
John Thomas Sina,son Jones, who was convicted at
the January adjourned sessions of obtaining money
by false and fraudulent representations in begging
letters, was placed at the bar to receive judgment.
It was shown at the trial of the prisoner that he
was one of the most notorious begging-letter writers
in the kingdom, and had carried on that species of
fraud upon the public to a very great extent. He
was convicted upon two indictments, and a paint as
to venue was reserved for the Court of Criminal
Appeal. The convictions were affirmed, and the court
had now to sentence the prisoner.
After the prisoner had addressed the Court,

The Learned JUDGE
.said the prisoner was con-
victed of two frauds • and, within two years, he had
been besides convicted three times, and discharged
upon accusation four times ; and the history of his
life, which the court was in possession of, showed that
amore thorough imposter did not disgrace England.
The sentence was, that the prisoner be transported
for seven years.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.
MiIRY LEBOIVE.
The court was much crowded by persons of both
sexes, who were anxious to hear the further proceed-
ings against Charles Jopling, an embosser, living at
No. 5, Windsor-court, Strand, and who was brought
before Mr. Broughton, on the 30th ult., on the
charge of having administered chloroform to a
pretty-looking girl, named Mary Anne Elton, his
presumed object being that of violating her person.
The evidence previously given went to show that
the prisoner had been courting the complainant for
many months, with the sanction of her aunt, with
whom she resided in Camden-town; and that on the
night of the 29th ult. they went to a concert at a
house in Munster-street, Regent's-park. On the
way home he (prisoner) took her down a yard, and,
after acting indecently towards her there, he poured
something from a, bottle upon his handkerchief, which
he held over her mouth. She instantly thrust it
from her, calling out for assistance. Police-constable
243 S, took the prisoner into custody. 'lt was further
shown that the constable saw the prisoner throw
something against a wall, which sounded like glass,
and that when searched at the station, prisoner had
in his possession a handkerchief, which was wet,
and had a most powerful and unpleasant smell. The
remains of a bottle were subsequently picked up by
the officer, close to the spot where he made the cap-
ture, and he took the said handkerchief and portion
of the phial to Dr. Bermingham, who at once said
that there had been a quantity of chloroform in both.
The prisoner was remanded until to-day, when
Mr. Robinson, solicitor, Hatton-garden, attended
for the prisoner ; and Mr. Rivolta, Hart-street,
Bloomsbury, on the part of some of the relatives of
the complainant, who they considered had been " en-
trapped" with regard to the marriage.
Mr. Robinson handed in a certificate of marriage,
which had been solemnized that morning by licence
between the prisoner and the complainant, who had
long been acquainted with each other. The nuptials
were celebrated at the church of St. Mary-le-Strand.
Mr. BROUGHTON, after perusing the marriage cer-
tificate, desired the complainant to stand up in the
witness-box, andshe immediately did so; and "blush-
ing as became a bride" of only a few hours' duration,
bent down her head.
Mr. BROUGHTON (to the blushing bride)—You
charged the prisoner on a former day with a most
serious offence. Is it true that you have been mar-
ried this morning to him ? Complainant—lt is quite
true, sir, I assure you; and the paper you have
proves it.
Mr. Robinson—Have you contracted the marriage
entirely with your own free will and consent ? Com-
plainant—l have.
Mr. BROUGHTON—When was the licence granted ?
Complainant—Only this morning, sir, and we got
married directly.
Mr. Robinson—He kept company with you, did he
not, for nine months, and paid his addresses to you as
a suitor ? Complainant—Yes.
Mr. Rivolta said, he had no doubt that the com-
plainant had been tampered with, and that she had
been forced into the marriage as a matter of expedi-
ency under the circumstances in which the prisoner
stood upon so serious a charge.
Mr. Robinson (to complainant)—l ask yon again,
was the marriage ceremony performed with your per-
fect free will and sanction ? Complainant—Most
certainly it was.
Mr. Robinson—Do you believe that your husband
will ill-use you, or do you think that you will be
kindly treated by him ? Complainant (looking
lovingly towards the prisoner)-oh, I am quite cer-
tain that he will use me well, and that we shall be
happy and comfortable.
Mr. Rivolta addressed the magistrate to the effect
that undue influence bad been used to get up the
marriage with the view' of saving the prisoner from
any penalty which might, by the serious offence he
had been guilty of, be entailed upon him.
Mr. Robinson (to complainant)—l ask you again,
have you any complaint to make against the prisoner,
your huaband ? Complainant—None, sir, none.
Mr. Robinson [(to the magistrate)—She says she
has no charge to make against my client, and I sub-
mit to you, sir, that he is entitled to his discharge.
Mr. Rivolta thought that the magistrate would
not adopt, such a courses and he trusted that the case
would go to another tribunal, inasmuch as a conspi-
racy with regard to the marriage, which was no
doubt celebrated in order to defeat the ends of jus-
tice in this affair, could be clearly made out.
Mr. BROUGHTON—Are you prepared to show that
there was any conspiracy of the kind you speak of?
Mr. Rivolta—l am not at present prepared to bring
proof to that effect, although I have no doubt as to
the conspiracy I have spoken of.
Mr. Robinson urged that the prisoner was fully
and fairly entitled.to be discharged, as the com plet ;
' nant, who was now his wife, could not give evidence
against her husband. The Learned Gentleman
t
con-
tended that his client, who was well to dho In
world, had, by marrying the complainant,
to do,
done all
which, as an honourable man, he w
and he thought that his Worship would,as bound
taking all the
circumstances into consideration, order that the pri-
soner should be discharged.
Mr. BROUGHTON observed that he should take time
for consideration in the mattert and he should remand
the prisoner, upon the same bail as before, until Tues-
day next.

IVIANCHESTHIL TRADE REPORT, TUESDAY, MAT 7.
—We have had a firmer market to-day, with great disposi-
tion to do business; but in consequence of the advance in
prices demanded owing to the confirmation of the accounts
of the deficient supply of raw material, a check has, to some
extent, been put upon operations. Where contracts were
not previously entered into (aa had been done in the case of
many of the houses trading with the East), an advance of
*d. to id. has been gives for yarns. This, however, will
little more than cover the increased cost of cotton, so that
the advantage is still very slightly in favour of the producers ;
and prices, even at the present advance, may be considered
decidedly unremunerative. The goods market is dull. A
few purchases for the continental maraet have been made at
the advanced rates; and T cloths also participate in the im-
provement. Buyers, though in some instances forced to con-
cede higher prices, are still on the whole unwilling to accom-
modate themselves to the advances sought by the manufac-
turers.
