ROBBERY.

Samuel Marland, 35, (could neither read nor write,)
was indicted for robbing John Horsfield, at Ashton-
under-Lyne ; he was further charged with striking him
violently with a stick. The prosecutor stated that he was
a mechanic, residing at Stayley-bridge, and on the 4th of
February last, about two o'clock in the morning, was
passing through Ashton, and, on coming near Ashley
Arms, met the prisoner, who belonged to the police-
force, and asked if he could procure anything to drink.
They then went into the house, and bad some liquor, when
the.prosecutor got change for a sovereign, and on corning
out of the house, set off on the new road intending to go
to Manchester. After going a little way, he heard some
one following him, and on looking round saw the prisoner,
who immediately put his hand into his pocket, and suc-
ceeded in taking his money, consisting of a sovereign and
fifteen shillings in silver. Prisoner then said be would
give him five shillings back again, and the prosecutor said
be would have all, and took hold of him, on which he
received a blow which brought him to the ground. The
prisoner then got away. Prosecutor afterwards went to
the police station, where an investigation took place, when
the prisoner was recognised, and taken into custody. The
prisoner was acquitted, several witnesses being called, who
spoke to the prosecutor's being somewhat in liquor, and
that he had at first given a wrong statement with respect
to the number of the police officer.

FORGING A CHECK.
James Joseph Mooney, 36, (could read and write in a
superior manner,) was charged with forging an order for
the payment of money at Wigan. The prisoner, it ap-
peared, from the statement of Mr. Holton, was an at-
torney's clerk at Wigan, and son-in-law to Betty Glass-
brook, who bad a sum of money in the bank of Messrs.
Woodcock and Sons, of the same place. On the 15th of
January last the prisoner went to the bank of Messrs.
Woodcock, and obtained a blank check, soon after which
he returned, having, in the mean time, got it filled up for
the amount of £25, which sum was paid to him. The
signature was, " Betty Glassbrook," but she had given no
authority to the prisoner to make use of her name, and
the check was supposed to be a forgery. Mr. Gaskell,
solicitor, of Wigan, gave the prisoner an excellent cha-
racter, though he considered that within the last two
years his mind had been somewhat impaired, and he had
been guilty of some inaccuracies, but he never had occa-
sion to charge him with dishonesty. The prisoner was
acquitted.

SEDUCTION.-SQUIRES V. MOLYNEUX.

This was an undefended case, which was stated to the
jury by Mr. SEGAP., without general remarks. The plain-
tiff, Amelia Squires, a widow, residing in Preston, sought
to recover damages from the defendant, for the loss of the
services of Mary Braithwaite, her daughter by a first
husband,—a good-looking young woman, who was em-
ployed by Messrs. Barton, Brierley, and Co., of that town.
The defendant was a partner in the firm, and, it moreover
appeared, a married man. In 1840 the plaintiff went to
work in the mill, and defendant shortly afterwards paid
her particular attentions. Not knowing that he was
married, she listened to his declarations of attachment,
and he stated that he purposed to marry her. This pro-
mise she at first questioned, on the ground of the disparity
in their respective situations in life; but the intimacy was
kept up by frequent interviews, and by the parties cor-
responding by letter, and walking out together. Several
letters from the defendant to the girl were produced,
couched in the most affectionate terms ; stating that he
was astonished she should doubt his affection—that no
cause of separation would arise on his part, and imploring
her to be faithful as he would be, &c. When they were
walking out together on one occasion, a female came up
and said something which induced defendant to leave his
companion, whose mother and herself soon afterwards
found that he was in no situation to comply with his
promise of marrying her. The result of their intimacy
was a child born in May last.
These facts were proved by the young woman and
others; and the learned JUDGE remarked, in summing
up, that the case was one of considerable aggravation, and
that the amount of damages should be duly considered.
The jury returned a verdict for the plaintiff, damages £4O.

BIRMINGHAM CORN MARKET, MARCH 28

At this day's market, the supply of Wheat was again short,
and the currency of this day s 'nnight was fully maintained ;
and, in some instances, rather exceeded; red Polish Odessa
brought 7s Gd per 621 b. ; mixed 7s Sd. Malting Barley has an
improved sale, and grinding but little inquired for. Rather
more doing in Oats. Beans 6d to Is per quarter dearer. Pease
unaltered.

MANCHESTER CORN EXCHANGE, MARCH 30.
The want of adequate demand for Flour and Oatmeal affects
every branch of the trade, and we have to report another week
of dull and unsatisfactory business. The list of arrivals exhibits
a full supply from all our usual sources of import. Wakefield
yesterday was flat, and lower for Wheat; whilst at Liverpool
an improved feeling was discernible. To-day we have little
enquiry for any article, farther than what is necessary for the
stipply of present wants. Wheat is 2d. per bushel cheaper.
Flour fully Is. and in some cases 2s. per sack lower ; but from
the length of time that the bakers and dealers have been out of
the market, we conceive their stocks of this article must be
getti low. Oats without alteration, as also is Oatmeal.
Beans Is. per quarter lower. Malt steady at late rates.

LIVERPOOL PROVISION MARKET, APRIL 1.
The business transacted in Butter during the past week has
only been to a limited nature. Stocks of fine Butter appear to
have been nearly exhausted; and on the eve of the new season,
dealers are fastidiously cautious in their purchases. It is diffi-
cult to quote prices with correctness, there being a range of
something like 25s per cwt. between the higher characted But-
ters and the middling and indifferent sots. New Grass Butter
if is expected will make its appearance here in abut a fortnight
or three weeks hence, and will p obably op n at about 112 s per
cwt. There is a moderate inquiry for Pickled Butter, at 71s per
cwt. for seconds. Prime Irish Beef and Pork fairly support
our late quotations; whilst foreign continues to be neglected,
and offering at very low rates.

COTTON MARKET, APRIL 1.

Down, topling down, and to all appearance not at the bottom
yet, for each succeeding day the market has a more tame and
sickly appearance; the daily sales do not average more than
2 0 . bales. Several holders have withdrawn their stocks till
there is more anxiety displayed by consumers to purchase even
to a moderote extent. The tumble down from the extreme top
is three farthings a pound, yet speculators are asleep.

MANSLAUGHTER AT MANCHESTER.

John O'Hare (17) was indicted for the manslaughter of
John Murray, at Manchester, by driving against him a
one-horse cart.

Mr. Whigham conducted the case for the prosecution ;
and Mr. Wilkins defended the prisoner.
It appeared from the evidence that the deceased, who
was 59 years of age, lived at Bacup, near Rochdale ; that
between the hours of nine and ten o'clock on the morning
of the 3d of January last he was in St. George's-road,
Manchester; and that while be was in the act of crnssing
the road from the right to the left, be met with the acci-
dent which resulted in his death. The prisoner was
driving a cart, and a man of the name of Bradbury was
driving another cart. They were racing, with the view of
reaching an adjacent coal yard. Bradbury was in advance
about ten yards, and was going at a brisk trot. The pri-
soner's horse was in a gallop ; and it was while the horses
were going at that rate that the right shaft of the priso-
ner's cart struck the deceased in the shoulder, broke four
of his ribs, and fractured his skull. He was immediately
taken to a druggist's shop, and subsequently to the Man-
chester Infirmary, where lie died on the following Saturday
of the fracture of the skull. The defence was to the
effect. that the deceased was deaf—that he made a short
turn off the causeway into the. road—and that the pri-
soner, after the accident, returned with his horse and
cart, and offered to render every assistance to the unfor-
tunate man. The prisoner was acquitted.

SMITH V. COARE.

This case was somew iat similar to the last, and Mr.
Cardwell stated-the particulars, which were also proved.
The defendant, Jame§ Smith, sought to recover damages
from Edward. Coare, (now 274 years old,) for the seduc-
tion of his daughter, Isabela, a woman now 27 years of
age. The father of the plaintiff, and the father of the de-
fendant, farmed contiguous land at Mellor, -near Black-
burn. The jury gave a verdict for the plaintiff—damages

A YEAR.

The division of the soil is very encouraging ; there are 521
acres of capital Grazing Land, 230 acres of excellent
Meadow Land, and 455 acres of soil congenial to Wheat
and Oats; the former yielding five and six quarters and
the latter from seven to ten quarters per acre. Now this
representation of the Estate cannot be charged with co-
louring the Landscape beyond its deserts ; and it may be
well to remind such as were last year sceptical in respect
to the corn-laws, that the agricultural horizon is no longer
clouded by doubt or uncertainty—the manly, judicious,
and unequivocal declaration of Sir Robert Peel ought to
quiet the apprehensions of all those who desire to see the
agricultural and manufacturing interests go quietly in
harness together, without any undue partiality. Indeed,
his declaration is so encouraging, I cannot do better than
quote his own words—it will, or ought to silence scepti-
cism :

I NEITHER HAVE, NOR DO I CONTEMPLATE
ANY CHANGE WHATEVER IN THE
CORN-LAWS."

To conclude, Trustees, IQ all persons having their capital
deposited in the funds, will do well to ponder, and to ex-
ercise their understanding, and the result must (or ought
to be) that Three per Cents. at 98 is a fearfully high and
unnatural price as compared with Land which will now
return a clear income of Three and a Half per Cent., with
prospective views exceedingly delightful, when placed in
juxtaposition with the Funds.

AWFUL DE ATII.—M r. T. Hutchinson, the eminent
railway coniractor, met his death last week on his way
from the Sedgefield station of the Stockton and Darling-
ton Railway to the village of Morden, where he lived. He
had a Jew Jisses of whisky at the Sedgefield station, which
is a public-house, and in less than half-an-hour after he
had It ft to walk home he was found with his head just
within the rails, and an engine with a train of 35 waggons
had gone over his neck, right shoulder, and arm, which
killed him in a moment. He has left a widow and six
children.
SHEFFIELD AND MANCHESTER RAILWAY.—A half-
yearly meeting of this company was held at the Cutler's
Hall, Sheffield, on Wednesday last—John Parker, M.P.
in the chair. The Chairman said that the Directors con-
fidently anticipate that the whole of the line will be ready
for opening to the public in the early part of next year.
The Directors also expressed a hope that a junction will
be made between their Station and that of the Manchester
and Birmingham Company, also connecting them with the
Manchester and Liverpool Station. The prospect of the
Ashton br inch was favourable ; and though the bill for
the formation of a branch from Penistone to Barnsley had
been thrown out in the standing orders committee of the
House of Commons, the Directors felt assured that it
would pass the house next year. The report of the Di-
rectors was agreed to.

IRELAND.

A monk has been convicted, at the Cork Assizes, of a
criminal assault on the person of a female child, nine years
of age, who was brought to him to be cured of epilepsy.
He has been sentenced to two years' imprisonment.
The Kilkenny Moderator says that should Mr. O'Con-
nell pay a debt of nature while in the performance of the
penance imposed upon him for a violation of the law of
the land, the Papal Court have ;it in contemplation to
canonize him.

FALL IN THE CORN EXCHANGE FUNDS.—The
amount of the repeal rent acknowledged at the last meet-
ing of the Repeal Association was £376 lls., upwards of
£l2O of which was American money, leaving the home
weekly contributions at something under £250.
WHOLESALE MURDEP.—At the Cork Assizes, on
Tuesday last, Timothy Mahony was found guilty of having
murdered the wife, the child, and the servant of his bro-
ther by beating out their brains with a mallet. Sentence
of death was passed on him, which he heard with indiffer-
ence.

DESPERATE OUTRAGE—THREE HORSES KILLED.—
An outrage of a most desperate nature took place near the
town of Tipperary a few days back. Mr. Navin, who
keeps a hotel in the town, took some land, out of which
the former tenants were ejected, on the property of Mr.
Stafford O'Brien, and six armed men came on the lands,
in search of Mr. Navin, who had proceeded thither.
However, not finding the object of their vengeance, who,
fortunately, had returned home by a different road from
that by which he came, the ruffians were so exasperated
that they shot two of his horses dead, and wounded ano-
ther so desperately that he cannot recover. No doubt,
had Mr. Navin met with those blood-thirsty legislators,
another assassination would be added to the blood-stained
records of our county.—Tipperary Constitution.
DESPERATE OUTRAGE.—On Saturday week some ruf-
fian fired a gun into the parlour of William Revel, Esq.,
of Ardoyne, Carlow. There were seated in the room, Mr.
Revell, his lady, and daughter, his mother and two other
ladies, and a gentleman, within two yards of the window.
The assassin placed the gun so close to the window, that
every pane of glass in it, from the top to the bottom, was
shivered to atoms. About thirteen slugs entered. One
of them slightly cut the ear and cheek of the elder Mrs.
Revell, and three others cut through the lace border of the
cap she wore; three others struck her in the back. but
did not enter, and only inflicted painful bruises. Provi-
dentially she was much wrapped up. having a large shawl
trebly folded, and underneath a pelerine, through which
the balls did not penetrate. The remainder of the charge
passed over the head of Mrs. Revell, jun., and lodged in
the wall. This outrage is thought to be connected with
some proceedings which Mr. Revell was about to take to
dispossess a family who had squatted on a part of his land,
and towards whom he had acted with the greatest kind-
ness and liberality.
