OXFORD ClRCUlT.—Worrester, March 14.
THE CROOME MURDER.

The LORD CHIEF BARON, after a most impressive address,
in which he pointed out the cruelty and aggravated nature
of their attack on the keepers, sentenced Dingley, Joseph
Turvey, Samuel Turvey, and Joseph Tandy to transportation
for life; Hooper, Collins, and Broomfield, for ten years;
George Brant, in consideration of his youth, to seven years'
transportation ; and Cosnett and Collins, on account of their
previous good character, to two years' hard labour in the
House of Correction.
This finished the business of the assize, and the Learned
Judges proceeded to Stafford, where the Commission will be
opened this afternoon.
