CLERKEN WELL.-(T HIS DAY.)

Mr. James Johnson, of No. 10, Union-street, Somers-town,
green-grocer, was charged with damaging the cab of Mr. J.
Willingsgale.
The prisoner, whose head was bandaged, and who bore marks
of severe and recent injury, was driving down Highgate-hill,
on the previous evening, at a quick pace, when the harness
having given way, the horse became ungovernable, and dragged
the cart against the complainant's cab, which stood at the foot
of the hill. The cab was smashed, and the prisoner and his
wife were, by the collision, thrown into the middle of the
road. The prisoner's head was laid open, and the upper part
of his face severely cut and bruised. His wife was so much in-
jured that her life is despaired of. She was carried to a pub-
lic house hard by, where she now lies in the greatest agony.
The unfortunate prisoner, who had discharged the cabman's
claim, and who seemed to suffer great mental and bodily pain,
was discharged.

MARKET NEWS.-(THIS DAY.)

CORN EXCHANGE-FRIDAY.

The present week's arrivals of Wheat of home produce,
coastwise, as well as by land carriage, and samples have been
seasonably extensive, viz., 5,910 quarters, about a moiety of
which has been produced this year. The quality of the new
Wheat on show to-day was very good, while the prices ob-
tained varied from 48s to 60s per quarter. A few of the
parcels weighed 641bs. per bushel The supply of old English
Wheat not being large, and the attendance of buyers some-
what on the increase, the demand for that article was steady,
at prices fully equal to those obtained on Monday. In new
Wheat only a moderate business was doing on that day's de-
pressed currencies, and at which a clearance was not effected.
A large quantity of Foreign Wheat has been received this
week, the total import having rather exceeded 15,000 quar-
ters. Selected qualities moved off steadily, other kinds
slowly, at previous figures. The duty has now fallen to 17s
per quarter, but, as yet, very few parcels have been entered
for home consumption. In Corn under lock very little was
doing, yet holders would not submit to lower terms.
Very-
little Barley was on show. Grinding parcels were
in request, at full prices. In other kinds com-
paratively little was doing. The supply of Malt
being on the increase, that article ruled dull,
and where sales were pressed, a slight decline in val ue was
submitted to. From Ireland no Oats have reached us this
wls d 1 Oat

were in moderate request, at unaltered figures. There was
rather more doing in Peas ; but Flour experienced a very dull
inquiry.

Notwithstanding the supply of Beasts on sale here to-day
was limited, the demand for that description of stock was
heavy, at barely Monday's quotations. From Holland we
received 113 Olen and Cows, 180 Sheep, and 18 Calves :
from Scotland only 30 Scots. The number of Sheep was
small. Most breeds were in good request, at full rates of
currency. There was rather more business doing in Lambs,
the prices of which were well supported. Calves were in
short supply, and active request, at an advance of quite 2d
per Blbs. Pigs steady, at late rates. Milch Cows were sell-
ing at from 16/ to 191 each.
