FATAL ACCIIMP,T.-.—A fi accitient of the most i or-
rible nature brfel a veer% lad at work in a hay field near the
town of Romsey, clams. on Friday last. The young matt,
whose name was Fi,h, was in the act of descending a ladder
from the top of a hayrick with a large fork in his hand, and
whether he let the fork drop
not known; but he was observed to be struggling on the
ground, and was beard to exclaim, " I tins staked, I am a deal
man." After about thirty hoars of the most excruciating
agony, death put an end to his pains. A post mortem exami-
place when it ation took and lost his equilibrium it is
n w a found the handle of the fork
had passed up into the cavity of the abdonlen, until it reachLd
the diaphragm, when it wal stopped by that strong material.
The blunt handle of the hayfork bad .carried away with it a
part of the lad's trousers, *Erich gave way at the moment of
its entry into his body.

MARKET NEWS.-(THIS DAY.)

CORN EXCHANGE-WEDNESDAY.

Scarcely any English Wheat was on sale in to-day's
market, coastwhe or by land carriege. Al:hough the
attendance of buyers Wa3 limited, the demand for all
kinds if wheat of home produce was steady, at fully
Monday's advance in the quotations. From abroad,
8,420 quarters of Wheat have reached us this week, in
vcry middling condition. Fine dry qualities moved off
freely, at extreme currencies, and, ru some jUbtatpt9,
:he value of the recundary parcels had an improved
tendency. No Engiish.Barley at market, and the supply
of foreign was moderate. The demand ruled steady, at
lull rates of currency. There was a slight improve-
ment in the demand for Malt, at very full prices. Good
sound Osts were 6d dearer. Ail other kinds ruled
flees. Beans, Peas, and Indian Corn, steady. The top
price of flour was 40s per 280 lbs.

CRIMINAL COURT.-(THIS DAY.)
OLD COURT.

(Before Mr. Justice PATTEsON, Mr. Justice TALFOURD,
mid Mr. Brun ALDERsON.)
_ _

The second edition of the calendar was publUel tLis
morning. It curtains the names of 155, being 25 mote
than appeared in the former edition.

THE CASE Cl WALTER WATTS.—The ATTORNEY-
GENERAL wished to know it it were the pleasure ef the
Court to give judgment in the case e f Walter Wai!s,
who had been convicted of stehltg a pies.' of paper from
the Globe Insurance Compiny. There were other
charges against the prisoner, but as ho was anxous to
save the time of the Court and the pubic, and if their
L ,rdships would first look over the depositions in the
other case's before passing E eutence, he should not feel
it necessary to proceed with the other indictments. lf,
however, the sentence now to be pronounced, would
only have rekrence to the single offence of which the
prisoner had been convicted, then he should feel it to
be his duty to press the ether charges.
Mr. Baron ALDERSON Said, be wished to consult the
other Learned Judge who assisted in trying the case be.
fore he pronounced judgment on the prisoner, as he did
not concur in the view which had been taken of the
case. The judgment, however, he might state, must
be pronounced upon the indictment charging the pri-
soner with stealing a piece of paper of trifling value.
No doubt that was not all the crime he had been guilty
of, but still the Court could only deal with that offence
which had been specifically established against the
prisoner. _ _

The ATTORNEY-GENERAL, under the circumstances,
would request the Court to postpone passing sentence.
Mr. BAron ALDERSON acceded to this application,
and the prisoner, who had been brought up in cus-
tody, was removed from the bar.
THE ASSAULT ON THE QUEEN.

The ATTORNEY.- GENERAL said there was a case in
the calendar involving a charge of assault upon her Ma-
jesty the Queen. The prisoner's name was Pate, and
it would be convenient to all parties if the Cuutt would
fix the trial fir the first thing to morrow morning.
The Court granted the application. _ _

RAPE,— William Avery, abed 17, described as a brick-
maker, WiS indicted for committing a rape on Suiannab
Saunders.

Mr. Payne prosccuted, and Mr. Carter defended the
prisoner. _ _ _

The prisoner lived next door to the prosecutrix, a girl
16 ears of age, at West Drayton, and the offenca was
alleged to have been committed in a neighbouring brick-
field, on Saturday three weeks, the 15th ofJune. There
was, however, something about the subsequent conduct
of the prosecutrix, which would induce a belief that
.he connexion had not been so compulsory as she would
have it supposed. On reaching home after the oc-
currence, she told her mother that she had been " up•
set by a chap," but it was not until she discovered on
the Monday morning that a third party had been a
passive witness of the whole affair, who made a joke o.
it amongst the companions of the prosecutrix, that she
pre!erred this accusatim against the prisoner, who had
previously passed as her sweetheart.
The jury therefore found the prisoner Not Guilty, and
he was at once liberated.
