wounded Thomas Ralph, with intent to maim him.. The
prisoner and prosecutor were- fellow-worimen in the
employ of Mr. Gilbert, cabinet-maker, Salford. While
engaged in cleaning a pipe-stove, on the 3d of February, a
quarrel occurred between them,and the prisoner "jobbed"
at prosecutor with a chisel, wounding him in several places
so severely that he was confined in the hospital for nearly
three weeks afterwards. Guilty : three months.with hard

Nathaniel Fye, 26, George Graham, 15, and John
Brown, 17, were charged with having thrown a stone at
an engine used on the London and North-western Rail-
way, with intent to endanger the safety of the driver,
Samuel Cunliffe, and othors. Between one and two
o'clock on 21st February, the Ariel engine was passing
slowly down the incline, between Huyton-quarry and
Rainhill, when a stone was thrown from Atherton-bridge
with such force as to cut the dame, nearly an eighth of
an inch,- almost through. in returning, about twenty
minutes afterwards, with another engine attached, a
second steno was thrown from the same pleas. The in-
spector of the permanent way, who was with the Ariel,
went round to the bridge, and took the prisoners into
custody. On questioning them graham admitted. that he
had thrown the last stone. I'ye was prove& to have been
non compoa menus for about six years. The jury acquitted
the prisoners, thinking there was a want of malicious in-
tent. His lordship observed that, by the merciful con-
sideration of the jury, the two younger prisoners had just
esceped transportation for life.

Donald, 2&, was convicted of
having tendered bad half crowns to two different persons
on the same day, at Manchester. A previous conviction
of a similar offence was proved. Sentence deferred.
William Murphy, 34, was convicted of having in his
possession, at Bury, a mould on which was impressed the
resemblance of the Queen's current silver coin of a
shilling.

tichard Loma, 33, pleaded not guilty to having felo-
n illy killed Elizabeth Lomas, his wife. The prisoner
is saddler, and lived in a cellar, in Walker-street, Man.
It appeared that he generally lived on happy
terms with his wife, but was unfortunately very much
addicted to drinking. On returning home on the night
of the 18th of February, in a state of inioxication, she
said to him, " Does thee mean to go on in this way all
the week ?" "Go look ! never mind l" was the reply.
She upbraided him for his misconduct, and was telling
11m that he was the cause of her work, washing, being
taken from her, when he struck her two blows on the
temple. She fell down senseless, and remained motion-
less on the floor. Terrified by this fearful denouement,
he threw himself into a chair, sobbed " Oh, dear! oh,
