GREENWICH.

MURDEROUS ASSAi7L7.LEinanUeI Todd, a young man,
about 25 years of age, having the appearance of a respectable
mechanic, was charged with the serious offence of cutting
and maiming a young woman, named Mary Kensley.
The prosecutrix, whose head was bandaged up, and her
eyes covered by a large green shade, was led into Court, and
deposed that on Thursday;. the 22d of October;' she and her
husband had a few words respecting the risoner's sister, of
whom she admitted she was jealous, the priSoner lived
with a girl named Cox, at the house of her husband's father,
in Bridge-street, Greenwich. Witness's husband having
struck her, she rushed into the house where the girl Todd
was, and inflicted summary vengeance on her. The pri-
soner, who was sitting on a chair by the tire, got up to inter-
fere, and prevent his sister being struck by witness, and
pushed her away. He then sat down, when she rushed up
to him, seized him by the hair and struck his head against
the wall several times. During this the prisoner seized the
poker, and gave her a violent blow across the eyes, abso-
lutely cutting one out, which lay upon her cheek until re-
placed in the socket by a surgeon. The sight of her eye was
gone for ever.

The evidence of the prosecutrix, was fully borne out by
the testimony of the prisoner's sister, Ellen Todd, and that of
another girl, named Louis Cox.

Mr. D'ajshw. ood, surgeon, Greenwich, deposed that he was
called upon to attend the prosecutrix. The eye was torn
completely out. The curbed point of the instrument had
caught the outer part of the orbit, throwing the eye along
the cheek, and kept it so merely by the ligatures. Had the
weapon caught the orbit inwardly, it would most probably
have been attended with fatal consequences. The sight was
totally gone, and the sight of the other eye, he believed, was
irreparably injured.
The prisoner offered no defence.
Mr. JEREMY said, this was a case resulting, unfortunately,
from mere uncontrolled passion. The prosecutrix had partly
brought this on herself by her attack on the prisoner; and
although he might have resented such attack, and been
quite justified in so doing, he had no right to use such an
unlawful weapon. He should commit the prisoner for trial,
but allow him to put in bail until the next sessions.

ROBBERY BY SERVA.NTS.
TO THE EDITOR oF THE SUN.

Str.,—ln your report of tile trial of Ann Craft, you repre-
sent the Recorder, in his summing-up to the jury, to have
adthessed them in these terms :—" The principal matter for
the jury to inquire into would be, whether the articles were
taken with a felonious intention, or whether they were not rather
abstracted because they were of no use to the janzily." This is
a very serious ipse dixit of the Recorder: Is a servant to be
at liberty to appropriate to herself with impunity such cloth-
ing of the master, mistress, or children, that she may deem
unfit for further use? I have heard of masters and mis-
tresses giving worn garments to their servants, but this is the
first time I ever heard of servants being allowed to take them
without leave or license, and such taking not being deemed
thieving. This dictum of the Recorder is a most serious one
for families, and it ought to be either satisfactorily supported
as a legal decision or it ought to be most clearly repudiated.
I am, Sir, yours, &c.,

IN RE ALPRED lARLILE.

It will be remembered that this defendant was convicted at the
sessions of September last of exposing for sale divers indecent
prints and engravings. The Recorder, before whom the case was
tried, wished that inquiries should be made, and therefore respited
the sentence until the present session. During the interval the
defendant has remained in custody in Newgate.
Several persons came forward and gave the prisoner an excellent
character tor decency and morality of conduct.
The RECORDER sentenced him to be imprisoned in the House of
Correction fur the city of Westminster for six calendar months, to
be dated from the 16th of September last.

THE QUEEN V. ANNE CRAFT.-COMMUTATION OF SENTENCE.

This prisoner, who was convicted on 'Tuesday last, in the Old
Court, on a cline of stealing several articles of wearing apparel,
the pro;,erty of the Rev. Mr. Reeve, was this day trought up in
this Court.

IlEcoßnErt informed her, that, instead of allowing her to
fulfil the entire period of her imprisonment (fourteen days), the
Court had come to the determination of commuting the sentence to
seven days' imprisonment, to be dated from Monday last.
The prisoner, who appeared very ill, was then removed from
the bar.

It was rumoured in Court that the trial and sentence had had
such an eff,ct upon the poor creature that it was not deemed
prudent to allow her to fulfil the entire period of her punishment.
diltst Thomas Beale, aged 28, was convicted on a charge of
embezzling and stealing 3/. 2s. and other sums, the property of
Messrs. Hewes and Co., and sentenced to be transported for seven
years.

EASTERN PRODUCE.

There has been but little activity in the market for cotton, and
though supplies are now arriving freely, the high prices continued
to be asked by importers preclude extensive purchases. For some
days past there has been literally nothing doing, and the current
rates must recede considerably to admit of profitable shipn ents.
The prices now demanded are for Broach and Surat rs. $6 to 89,
for Dollera rs. 84 to 85, for Oomrawuttee rs. 84 to 86, and for
Compta is. 77 per candy.

Coffee—Mocha is a trifle dearer than at the date of our last, the
present
_quotation for it being rs. 8 to 9 per maund. Malabar
coffee remains without change.

Opium bas declined from ra. 1,500, our last quotation, to rs. 1,475
per chest.

- In other articles there is no alteration to notice, save in Meckran
wool, which we now quote at rs. 140 per candy.

COWES, ISLE OF WIGHT.

(FROM OUR CORRESPONDENT.) ..
ROYALTY AND THE ISLE OF WIGHT.
The term for which Osborne House was taken is nearly
expired, and while all were thinking that from the expen-
sive alterations made in the house last season that her Ma-
jesty proposed purchasing it, and even the Barton estate
also, notice is given that the house will not be required by the
Queen after the Ist of May next. Part of the linen, &c., has
been packed up and sent off already.
Some think that this has been done only to obtain the
estate at a cheaper rate, others that Norris is to be the Royal
residence, while others point to Brighton.
THE ROYAL YACHT SQUADRON.
This great national nursery for seamen will be greatly in-
creased this season : there are more splendid yachts building
now than at any former period.

RELIEVE THE DISTRESSED.
The poor at this inclement season have a very serious
ground of complaint against many of their more affluent
neighbours. In West Cowes they have been relieved nearly
every week—every poor widow, all persons with large
families requiring aid, the aged and sick, have, unasked, re-
ceived coals. bread, and potatoes, from a fund which origi-
nated with about twelve tradesmen at a convivial meeting;
they agreed to subscribe sixpence a-week each. From this
trifling foundation hundreds have been relieved; the sub-
scribers have increased, and the fund has been aided by
casual donations. Two hundred. families of the poor and
aged have been furnished with coals this week. There is
not a town or village in England that should be without
such a society ;—if people knew the distress that prevails
there would not be half the privations felt.
The accumulations of the summer will surprise the donors
as much as it will benefit the recipients. From the Cowes
"Compassionate Fund" more than one hundred pounds has
been distributed; this winter to the poor in this little town.
Let other towns follow so good an example.

3LAW AND POLXO3II.

The case of Mr. C. J. Mathews, the comedian, came on in the
Court of Bankruptcy. It appeared that under the agreement en-
tered into some time since, 650/. had been paid into Court by the
insolvent, and was now in the hands of the assignees, towards the
payment of a dividend. The insolvent underwent a long exami-
nation, but nothing of any importance was elicited, and eventu.
ally Mr. Commissioner Shepherd adjourned the examination to
Wednesday.
Anne Wilson was committed from Marylebone, for attempting
to drown her own child.

At Guildhall, William Hatch, who was lately employed as
a traveller, by Messrs. Sutton and Shepherd, stationers, Sta.
tioners'.court, Ludgate-hill, was charged with embezzling various
sums received from customers in various parts of the country, to the
extent of 125/. The prisoner, who denied the charge, and detled
the prosecutors to prove it, was remanded, on an understanding
that he should be admitted to bail,

At Clerkenwell, Elizabeth Peach, alias Frazer, was finally exa-
mined, charged by Mr. Henry Shakspeare, of No. 25, Mitchell-
street, St. Luke's, with stealing a 51. Bank of England note, and
71. in gold and silver, a shawl, and other articles, and fully com-
mitted for trial.

IPSWICH, WEDNESDAY —To-dav the half-yearly meeting
of this Company was held at the Company's offices, Brook •
street, Ipswich, Mr. J. C. Cobbold, Chairman of the Direc-
tors, presiding. The meeting was also made special for the
following purposes :—" For considering the expediency of
raising capital for making a branch line to Harwich, from a
point ofj unction with the Eastern Union Railway near to Man-
ningtree, together with a pier or jetty at Harwich, and for
authorising and empowering the Directors to adopt mea-
sures in reference thereto, by the creation of new shares or
otherwise ; for considering the expediency of and deter-
mining upon a junction with the contemplated Colchester
Port and Junction Raaway, in the parish of Ardleigh, in the
county of Essex; and for authorising and empowering the
Directors to subscribe towards its formation."
The report stated that nothing has occurred to induce the
Directors to doubt the full completion of the line within the
time specified. On the contrary, the highly respectable con-
tractors have promised very great vigour the moment the
season opens for more active operations. It then proceeded
as follows :—" The land in all parts of the line, where the
works are heaviest, is in possession of the Company. You
were promised, on this occasion, the statement of accounts
should embrace the final settlement of all the costs of your
act, but, in this one respect, your Directors, although great
progress has been made in settling them, require further time.
They have some small payments yet unadjusted, but the ag-
gregate of the whole will not exceed the sum named in De-
cember last. Mr. Robert Garrod, and Mr. James Allen Ran-
some, who were named by you in December last, are re-
eligible. It was a subject of great congratulation to your
Board, and must have been so among yourselves, that the
lines to Norwich and to Bury St. Edmund's intended-to Pin
yours at Ipswich, should alone, of all thoso projected in
'Suffolk or East Norfolk, have obtained the approval of the
Board of Trade. A traffic, already ascertained to be amply
remunerative, must by these extensions be greatly increased ;
and it may be confidently predicted that few lines in Great
Britain can command greater advantages than the Eastern
Union Line, both as possessed of present resources, and pro-
tected against future interference."
The total receipts by calls, &c. had amounted to 37,8501.,
the total payments to 16,2871., leaving a balance in hand of
21,5431.

The report was received and adopted and the retiring Di-
rgctors re-elected. Resolutions were also passed empower-
ing the Directors to proceed in conformity with the proposi-
tions contained in the report.
