Henry Enandt." a jolly young If.sterman" above Bridze, rsa,
brought up, on an aggravated assault charge upno an intutestioz
young female, Ann Datwin, and her si.c.r, the adanir,•,l
at the White Hart, •n Milbank. It appeared that this ruin.; !:ero
had met the graces of these two fair damsels, but latterly
had left the present complainant, Ann Delwin, fur the bar-maid,
where he repaired on Sunday last, to pay his customary courtship;
but his attentions not being acceptable at that moment, she re-
quested him not to annoy her again. This desire, however, had
no effect on him, and finding she would not listen t. his vo•>inp,
be struck her a violent blow in the face. The complainant was
called in, and on her interference, he also disfiguied her countenance.
lie was ordered to And bail.
A'Rlf-LA.BONNE.
Tkere was a tremendous long discussion upon an information,
Bled by' the Lessees of the Mary-la-bonne Road Trust, and the
Contractor. The question was, whether the latter was liable to
pay toll on the materials used for repairing the road ? the Contractile
insisting, that the Act expressly exempted all carts bearing such
materials, without restricting the exemption-to carts in the employ
of the Lessees. The Lessees were defeated.

An Abstract of Returns prep tred by order of the Se-
lect Committee of the House of Commons appointed to
inquire into the subject of Labourers Wages, was
ordered to be printed 10th May, 1825. In this Abstract
we have several returns from the different districts of
each county, stating, among other particulars, the
usual rate of wages, and the number of children which
entitles the labourer to an allowarce from the parish.
Throughout the South and West of England, the wares
seldom exceed 7s. a week, and frequently are not mare
than 6s. The allowance from the parish seldom com-
mences till there are two children,frequently not till there
are three. In Dorsetshire, for instance, where the
wages vary from 6s. to 7s. a week, the allowance c3rn-
m:nces only with the third child.

CORN EXCHANGE, MARK-LANE,,Tairusay 4.
Our supplies of all kinds of grain since Monday are large, par-
ticularly Flour, and which will continue to be the cue with this
article, as long as the nominal price remains at 60s. while the
selling one is only 461. The Wheat trade is heavy for the same
cause, and ptices nominally as on Monday. Milting Barley sup-
ports our last quotation, but the grinding sorts are heavy sales the
arrival of foreign Barley being very large. In Oats, Beane, and
Peas, there is little or no alteration.
