SMITHFIELD MARKET, OCT. 30.

Our Market of this day was abundantly supplied with prime
Beasts, and touch business doing in the early part of the
morning; hut tile prices were lower than► on last Monday.—
The strew of Sheep was small, winch caused a briskness in
the sale:;, and prices ~vere much higher. Pork was also
cheaper; but Veal could pot be bought at last week's prices.
The bnsiness in the Hay-market was by no means brisk, as
but few buyers aLieared, which caused a reduction of 4s. per
load for that article. Clover of the inferior kind was I 2s. per
load dearer; and the prime samples fully obtained last Mon-
day's quotations. Straw remains nominal in price as per
last, as scarcely any sales being made of that article. The
annexed is a true staterent of the numbers and prices:—

OLD BAILEY -(NIURDER.)

[Proceedings of this Morning.]

The Sessions House was this morning crowded
to excess at an early hour by persons anxious to
hear the trials for Murder, appointed to take place
this day. After the arraignment and pleading of
fiftee❑ persons for forgeries on the Bank of Eng-
land, John Daly was brought into Court, charged
with the murder of James Learwood..: he was
elegantly dressed, bowed respectfully to the Court,
and ►leaded Not Guilty.
The Judges haying arrived,
Francis Losch was put to the bar, charged, by
the Coroner's Inquisition, with the wilful murder
of his wife Mary Anne, by stabbing her with a
knife, and inflicting various wounds of which she
died, on the 9th inst.

Mr. WALvoaD opened the case, and Mr. AN-
DREWS addressed the Jury.
Mary Daman was the first witness called, whose
testimony (which, together with the several wit-
nesses, have recently appeared in our Police and
Inquest Reports,) went to establish the charge
against the prisoner, who, when called on for his
defence, said, " I have nothing to say-"
Mr. Justice DALLAS then summed up the evi-
dence, and in an address to the Jury, replete with
Justice and humanity, said he could not see the
possibility of coming to any other verdict than
that of guilty. The Jury, without turning round,
immediately pronounced the prisoner Guilty.
The RECORDER then proceeded to pass the
awful sentence of the law--that he be executed
on Monday morning, and his body anatomised.--
The prisoner, during the whole time, never
evinced the slightest emotion.

MIDDLESEX SESSIONS, OCT. 21.

THB PANTHEON.

An application was made to the Court on the
part of Mr. Nicholas Wilcocks Gundy, for a li-
cense, authorising him to open the Pantheon for
the purpose of exhibiting theatrical performances
of singing, dancing, &c. But the Chairman ob-
served, that as two similar applications, the first
by Mr. Seymour and others, the sccond by cer-
tain proprietors and box-owners, had already
been rejected, he could not, consistently with
what he conceived to be Us ditty, comply with
the present request.

BAG IGOE WELLS.
A license was applied for and granted, for open-
ing liagnigge Wells.

ENGLISH oPenA HOUSE.

A lieease was granted to Mr. Arnold, for re•
opening, at a convenient titne, tue English Opera
liouse in the Strand.

The Court, for the rest of the day, was engaged
in hearing and adjudging parish appeals concern.
ing the disposal of paupers, among which there
was no case of particular interest.

We are sorry to detail another shocking acci-
dent, occasioned by the overturning done of the
stages. 'Flits morning, about balf-past ten o'clock,
as one of the lVoolwich coaches was coming to
town, it was overturned at the corner of Bridge-
street and Parliament-street, Westminster, owing
to the sudden breaking of the off wheel, the nave
of which was literally shivered into a thousand
pieces. Two artillery-men were on the top of
the coach, one of whom received no further in-
jury than some severe cuts on the face ; while the
• `er unfortunately had his leg broken. A woman
and her child were also violently thrown from the
coach; the child escaped unhurt, but the mother
was so much injured about the head, that imme-
diate medical assistance was deemed necessary.
the WAS taken along with the artillery-uran to
the Hospital. No blame attaches to the driver of
the coach, as at tine time at which the accident
happened he was far front driving violently. The
mischief seems to have originated entirely from
the rottenness of the wheel.

Yesterday morning, a shocking accident occur-
ted in the sugar house of Messrs. Craven and
Company, in Duncan-street, «'l►itechapel.
A pour old man named Oliver Taylor, a painter
and glazier, residing in Leman-street, Goodman's-
fields, while in the act of tepAiring some win-
dows on the third story, by some accident his
toot slipped, and he was precipitated to the
ground; pitching on his head, he fractured his
sku!l in a most dreadful manner, lie was con-
veyed to the London Hospital, where be died in
the greatest pin.

OETRY,

P.kTCLIWOIIR.--By a LADY.

Surely PATctiworos exactly aesetahles mankind,
A motley assemblage of opposites—joined.
he grave ;ill.l the gay there together ate
The good and the btu/ by each other :Oix'd ;
The strong and the weak—the old-fashion'd and new,
'l' he ugh, and those that are beautiful too;
The anco,nown, the vulgar, in one groups combin'd,
AU—all—are a picture of motley mankind.
Tlw gay oars remind me of that joyous throng,
'Who with laugh, song, and dance speed the moments along
The grave of the train who are silent and sigh,
Who feel very sai, yet perhaps know nut why;
The good of my friends who in Norfolk reside,
The delight of toy heart, and of Virtue Ibe pride:
For those, like the bad, I'll not travel su far,
As I know many nearer are much below par;
Or would you the tierce with a modern compare,
See a Beau, who can conquer—a Fox or a flare.
The week ones remind me of such as complain,
While bow'd down by the weight of dejection and pain;
The old-fashion'd, of such as Antiquities prize,
And the new ones, of those who catch modes as they rise ;
The ugly of those to whom Beauty and Grace
Denied fascination of Figure and Face.
Ali ! would they forego all vain efforts and cares,
To procure the toed charms that can never be theirs,
Let them not waste their time in repining and woe,
Because Grace and Beauty nu boon would bestow ;
But rather resolve and endeavour to gain
Those charins that few strive for, and strive for in vain;
The beauties that Knowledge and Virtue impart,
The beauties that bloom in the mind and tl heart.
Much inure might be said, if much more were requir'd,
But the subject grows tame, and my muse too is tired.
The vulgar, the rare, and the handsome remain--
But I trust you'll confess my position is plain,
And in these humble lines an assurance you find
That Patchwork resembles the mass of mankind.
