A SECOND COURT Wus holden at the Old Towu-hall, George Chilton, Esq., Q. C., presiding. Patrick Sullivan was indicted for having stolen, ill the parish of Lantwit Yardre, six awls and other tools, the property of, E. Jones, and also with stealing various leather articles, such as boots, &c., of one William Evans. Mr. Chilton conducted the prosecution. It appeared that on Saturday last, the prosecutor fatened up his work-shop and left it in a secure 'state, together L f with various tools. Oil the Monday morning following, he went to the place and missed the tools, together with some Wellington boots, instep leather, hetl tips, &c. Upon inspection, the shop was discovered to have been broken open ai,d entrance was gained by the window. The tools belonged to E. Jones, a work- man and the boots to himself (Wm. Evans)- Footsteps ware afterwards traced to the river side, near which place the boms, &,c. were found. The prisoner was standing near ihe river, Information was given to Sergeant Pim, who deposed to taking the prisoner into custody, and finding some of the articles missed in his possession. The evidence having been corroborated by E. Jones, the Judge summed up, and three witnesses were called as to character. The last of whom gave his name as Jefferson Holland. This witness, who doubtless, appeared in a state of intoxication, caused some laughter, by the very impudent man- ner in which he answered the Judge. Upon the qimstion being put by the court, as to his knowlelge of the prisoner,Tie replied "I don't know, I never heard nothing of him, but what I have seed was all up right and down straight" (great laughter). The Judge, in reffering to the witnesses evidence as to character, alluded to the conduct of Holland, and said that if he had been produced as any specimen of sobriety on the part of Sulivan, all he could say, was that he had chosen a very bad witness. The jury then returned a verdict of Guilty; with a recommendation to mercy. The Judge then sentenced him to be imprisoned for three months with hard labour. Had not the circumstance transpired with regard to his character, which, upon the whole, was creditable, he (Ihe Judge) should have given him a much more severe sentence. Prisoner that a too hard. STEALING AT CAUDITF. — Stephen Griffiths a slender man, aged 20 years, was indicted with having feloniously and burglariously entered the dwelling-house of one David J. Llewellyn, and stealing therefrom an instiument called a circumferentor, value £10, the property of John Jenkins, land surveyor, of Aberdare. Mr, Morgan conducted the prosecution. It appeared that the instrument, which is u,ed for levelling in collieries, had been placed at the house of Mr. Llewellyn, coal merchant, of the Bute Docks. Mr. Llewellyn gave the necessary evidence. The in- strument was in his possession on the 1st June, and he missed it on the 7th. The night previous his house was entered by the window, when he supposed the circumfentor was stolen. This witness underwent a lengthened examination by the prisoner, who exhibited a sheet of paper which contained a mass ef writing, from which he put various questions. Information wa given at the Police-station, and Edward Hagan a policeman of this town, deposed to taking the prisoner into custody between four and five in the morning of the 7th June, in the neighbourhood of the Bute Docks, secreted in the ground cellar of one of the new houses. Witness told him to hand up a box, and be did so. Witness then took him into custody. The box was handed over to Mr. Stockdale, superintendent of police. That gentleman deposed to receiving the box of the previous one, and produced it as being the one taken from the prisoner. It was then identified by both .Mr. Jenkinan.d Mr. Llewellyn. Lengthened cross examinations succeeded the evidence of each witness, and the case for the prosecution having been closed, the prisoner occupied the attention of the jury for a short time, stating that he had found it in the neighbourhood of the docks, and had taken it with him to the unfinished house, where he adjourned for the purpose of procuring shelter from the rain.—The Judge in suipmjng up, alluded in strong terms to the absence of the man who had given the information to the police- constable, and the Jury returned a verdict of Quilty. A previous conviction in the name of Josiah Williams, was proved against him by Mr. English, superintendent of police at Newport, and he was sentenced to be transported beyond the seas for the term of SEVEN YEAtts. The prisoner, smiling, Thank you Sir. ROBBERY WITH VIOLENCE AT CARDIIT.— Margaret Thomas and Daniel Williams, a young man, were charged with having feloniously assaulted and put in bodily fear one William Lewis, and stole from his person 7s. 6d. i,u silver and one brass box, his property. Mr. Grove conducted the prosecution. The prisoners were undefended, and declined the assistance of counsel when asked by the Judge. The facts of the case have lately appeared in the newspapers. They are these ;—On the night of the 25th of May, the prosecutor was going home about half-past ten o'clock, and when passing the Red Lion public-house, he saw the femate prisoner coming down the treet, followed by the other prisoner. When she came up to him she asked for a class of something to drink, and immediately snatched at his witch- While scuffling to protect it, Williams came up and knocked him down, and he saw Thomas run off with his purse and his box, which she took from his pocket directly he was on the ground. As soon as he could get up he ran after them but they eluded his pursuit. On the following morning lie went and gave information to the police and they were after- wards taken into custody.—A witness was called by the prisoner Williams, for the purpose of proving an alibi. lIe came to her house, on the Wharf, at nine o'clock, and rev mained until nearly eleven.—Mr. Morgan, in the absence of Mr. Grove, then .called the jury's attention to the evidence of the last witness.—The foreman of the jury wished to know if there had been any of the stolen property found upon the prisoners. They were informed there was not. The learned Judge then summed up the case, alluding very pointedly to the evidence of the prosecutor, which lie described as most extraordinary, and, taking into Consideration the fact which had been elicited in cross-examination by the female prisoner, that he went by the cognomen of "William, the Liar," he was a witness upon whom they could place very little reliance. He then directed the jury's attention to the evidence of the witness who had been produced to prove an alibi us being worthy their notice. The jury having retired for a short time returned a verdict of Not Guilty. The sentence was received with loud clapping by the gallery audience, which was composed of some of the most depraved characters in Cardiff. The noise was imme- diately suppressed. Wm. Evan Williams pleaded guilty to stealing a shawl and some wearing apparel, at Lantwit Yardre, from a house in which he lodged. Upon being asked if he had anything to say, he replied that he was madly, insanely drunk, or he should not have done it. The Judge, in sentencing him said, that if he was so drunk as described, there was a vicious art- fulness about it which rendered him, while in that state, a dangerous man. He would, however, prevent the possibility of his so degrading himself for some little time to come, He was then sentenced to four months' imprisonment. Benjamin Thomas charged with stealing a pair of stockings, from Ann Jones, of Gellygare, was acquitted. During this case it was found necessary to remove the eccentric witness, Holland, from the Court. The orders to leave, given him by the Judge, where only acknowledged by smiles and nods, and it became necessary to have the assistance of one or two police- men to get rid of him.

ABERGAVENY. THE IRON WORKS.—It affords us much pleasure to suite that the utmost tranquility now prevails amongst the men engaged in our neighbouring Iron Works. We sincerely trust that this may long be the case, and that the men will not be guided and misled by the folly of those who term themselves the friends of the working man." We hope that our hard sous of toil will see, that" strikes" are too frequently traught with consequences the most injurious and serious and too important to trifle with. Need we mention the happy homes which have become in too many instances the scenes of misery, confusion, and want, and many other evils resliltiii,, frotii strikes,

MILlvOllJ) HAVEN. This little town, though much neglected and unnoticed, is not so far behind the age as might be generally supposed. Its situation is one of the finest harbours in the world. It has its public walks, its place's of worship, its schools, its reading rooms, c., and lectures are occasionally given at different places. On the 3rd and 4th inst., Mr. J. H. Beale delivered two lectures to the members of the Milford Haven Reading Society, on the study of English History, which gave the o-mitest satisfaction, and they embraced a description of the es institutions of the Ancient Britons, Saxons, Danes and Normans, the principal eras of our own country's history, the characters of Alfred, William I, Richard, John, Henry VIII. Elizabeth, Charles, and Cromwell; the principle struggles of the people for freedom, and' the leading characters who took part in them, No one could attend these instructive lectures without deriving much benefit. The suggestions were ad- mirable, and if acted upon would produce most favourable reult- To be without a knowledge of the history of our own times, and that preceded them shows unwarantable igiiorame, and the absence of what tends to make a good and useful citizen. It is the duty of every man and woman to be well acquainted with the history of their native land, and it ouelu to form an important branch of education in all our public and private schools. At the close, a. vote of thanks was given unanimously to the able lecturer for his highly instruc- tive and important lectures.

LONDON COltN EXCHANGE, MONDAY.—We had again a very small show of Wheat by land- carriage samples from Essex and Kent, and hardly any fresh up coastwise i factors consequently asked high prices, and an advance of 2s. per qr. on last Monday's rates was established without ditti- culty. The best sorts of foreign wheat were likewise Is. to 2s. per qr. dearer, but no quotable advance could bp obtained for ordinary or ill-conditioned qualities. The top price of town-manufactured fiour underwent no change, but fresh country marks and all good foreign made flour realised an advance of Is. per sack. Hardly a sample of English barley W,b exhibited, and there was not much foreign fresh up this grain was held very firmly, and for the liner kinds last Monday's currency was rather exceeded. For malt an advance of Is. per qr. was asked, winch checked business. There were not many oats fresh up, either from our own coast or from abroad but the large dealers continued to act very cautiously, and the trude, though firm, was not sufficiently active to enable sellers to obtain any advance on the general qualities, and it was difficult to exceed lt Monday's rates by 6d, per qr. for even the finest corn. Bealls were the turn dearer, and peas fully as dear as on this day se'nnight. There was some enquiry for wheat to arrive, but we heard of no sales of floating cargoes of Indian corn.

Although the attendance of buyers was limited, the demand for all kinds of wheat of home produce was steady, at fully Monday's advance in the quotations. b'rom abroad, 8,420 quarters of wheat have reached us this week, in very middling condition, fine dry qualities moved off freely, at extreme currencies, and, in some instances, tlie value of the secondary parcels had an improved tendency. No English barley at market, and the supply of Foreign was moderate. The demand ruled steady, at full rates of currency. There was a slight improve- ment in the demand for malt, at very full prices. Good sound oats were 6d. dearer. All other kindsrliled firm. Beans, peas, and Indian corn, steady. The top price of flour was 40s. per 280 lbs.

LIVERPOOL. TUESDAY.—The week's arrivals of grain, meal, and flour from Ireland and coastwise are light, but from abroad we have a fair supply: of wheat. -22,790 qrs.,—viz., from Rotterdam, 1,616 qrs. Baltic ports, 4,919 qrs. Alexandria and Jaffa, tU,)oqrs. Odessa and Galatz, 4,-100 qrs.; from Franco, 1,120 qrs., with 4,345 sacks of flour. We have also 5,033 barrels flour from the United States. The import of Indian corn is 19, 003 qrs., and the "export 14,013 qrs. The grain trade during the week has had an improved appearance, and several speculative purchases have been made at advancing rates. There was a good attendance of buyers at our market this morning, and we experienced a healthy demand for wheat, at an advance on last Tuesday's price of 2d, to 3d. per bushel on Danzig, and 4d. per bushel on all useful red some parcels were taken to hold over fine ltostock red wheat brought 6s. 8d per 701bs. French flour was likewise Is. to Is. 6d. per sack dearer. Grinding barley improved 2d. per bushel, and grinding peas Is. per quarter. Oats, oatmeal, and beans, were held for full prices, and were scarcely so easy to buy. Indian corn was (KI. to Is. per quarter higher, and fine American yellow was not to be bought under 27s. 6d. per 4801bs. the sales, however, were unimportant.

SMITHFIELD. MOSDA Y,-Tho importation of foreign stock into London last week were very moderate, aud of inferior quality. The total suppiv did not exceed 2,747 head.

About 800 head have been landed at the outports from Holland and France. From Ireland 51 oxen and 60 sheep have arrived for this market, by sea. An Importation of preserved meet, consisting of 33,033 canisters and 72J boxes, has taken place from Galatz. The show of foreign stock here to-day was not large; but tlieo arrivals of beasts fvoui o n1 own grazing districts were on the increase, compared with, those reported oil Monday last. Their general quality, however, was by no means first-rate The attendance of both town and country buyers being good, the beef trade ruled steady, and, in some instances, the prime Scots, &c., produced rather more money, the highest figure for beef being 3s. lOd. per 8lbs. There was'a'considerable increase ill the numbers of sheep, owing to which, the mutton trade was less active than of late, and the quotation were with difficulty Supported. The extreme value of the best old Downs, was 4s. per 81bs. We had a moderate inquiry for lambs, in the paces of which we have no change to report.

THURSDAY. The Court opened this morning precisely at nine o'clock. AN TJNNATUKAI, OFFENCE.—Henry Dixon, aged 55, a painter bv trade, was indicted for having, in March, committed an unnatural crime with a donkey. Mr. Thomas Allen conducted the prosecution, the prisoner was undefended. The case was clearly proved by Joseph Colson, of Newbridge, a sinker, who, with others, saw the crime committed. The prisoner said in his defence, that he recollected nothing of that with which he was charged. The Jury, after a slight deliberation, returned a verdict of Guilty, and the Judge recorded the sentence of DEATH againat the prisoner. William Evans, aged 30, was then placed at the bar, charged with a similar crime, at Aberdare. Mr. Thomas Allen conducted prosecution, [and Mr. Grove ably defended the prisoner. The Jury returned a verdict of Not Guilty. Morris Griffiths, 19, boatman, and.lohn Phillips, 19, boatman, were charged with having feloniously made an assault upon a Young seamen, named John Morris, a native of Newport, Pembrokeshire, and stolen from his person a silver watch. Mr. Benson conducted the prosecution attorney, Mr. Thomas Evans. The circumstances of this case were fully reported by us some time ago. The prisoners was returning from Llandaff fair on "Whit-Tuesday, at a late hour and had reached Pontcanna, when he was assailed by prisoners and other men. Shortly afterwards the prisoners went to a booth at Pontcanna, partook of some refreshments, and offered a watch for sale to the keeper of the booth, who purchased it. This circumstance led to their detec- tion. They were found guilty, and sentenced to be imprisoned and kept to hard labour, tor twelve calender months, in Swansea House of Correction. John Jenkins, 30, collier, was charged with having, with a certain gun loaded with powder and leaden shot, unlawfully, maliciously, and feloniously shot at one Margaret Morgan, with intent to kill and murder the said Margaret Morgan. Mr. T. Allen conducted the prosecution; attorney, Mr. Montague Grover. Mr. Grove defended the prisoner attornies, Messrs. C. and P. James. The circumstances of this case have already been fully given by us, namely, that on the night of the 26th oi January last, the prisoner, while drunk, went to his mother- in-hn\" s house in which his wife was—that he was seen ap- proaching with a gun in his hand—that the door was shut, and A hat he fired through the key-hole at (it was concluded) his sister-in-law, Margaret Morgan. She escaped uninjured but a great number of shots entered into a chest of drawers and the wall. A witness, named William Jenkins, said that he saw the prisoner on the night in question, who said with reference to some persons when in an excited st ite, I will have to kill some of them before the morning." "W itness did not know against whom the threat was levelled. Prisoner was taken into custody on the same night; and a loaded gun was found in his house." P. C. Pyni charged him with the commission of the offence, upon which he asked, Are any of them dead ?" He was answered in the negative upon which he said, "I thought to have killed some of them before I slept." Pym observed some blue upon the nipple of the gun, as if it had been recently ciUchart'ed.—Several witnesses were examined, but all, except the policeman, had an evident reluctance to state freely all they knew.—Mr. Grove made a clever speech to the jury in pri- soner's behalf, contending that the evidence was not sufficient t4, wan ant a conviction, as it amounted to no more than a case strong suspicion,—Mr. Evan Davies, surgeon, gave the prisoner a g(,() I character for humanity. The Judge left it to the jury to decide whether ii was the mere act of a drunken man, to alarm the family and his wife or whether he actually intended, by firing the gun, to do some grievious bodily harm to some one or to commit murder.—The Jury having r. tired for a short time, returned a verdict of Guilty of intending to do grievious bodily harm." He was then sentenced to be imprisoned for one year. THE BLACK. —In the case of Theodore Johnston which was ti.e next, a jury composed of half foreigners was sworn. Mr. H. Allen, conducted the prosecution. Phillip Leivis, collier, of Dowlais, said that on Sunday morn- ing, the 21st of March, he was in Merthyr; and was. going along tHe road through Pontetorehouse on his return from Aberdare. lie saw prisoner and a woman with him near the big arch leading ii to "China." It was between two and three in the morning. The prisoner knocked him down, seized him by the collar, half choked him, reduced him to a state of insensibility, and when he witness) had recovered himself, prisoner told him to "deliver." Prisoner had an open knife in his hand. Witness gave up all the money lie litid-sixl)euce-ul)on which prisoner took from him his neckerchief and coat. P. S. Rees said he apprehended the prisoner shortly after the crime had been perpetrated and when charged with the offence, biiid he wished he had finished the prosecutor on the spot, and have made an end of him. The prosecutor's coat and neck- erchief were found in prisoner's possession when he was appre- hended. It was also proved tl-æt he had been convicted of felony at the Epiphany Quarter Sessions, in this town, in January last; and sentenced to three months' imprisonment with hard labour. He was discharged from gaol on Saturday and returned to it on the Monday following. Sentence,—TEN YUARS transportation. ASSAULT.—iohn Hopkins, aged 24, miner, was charged with Wvij)<r asaauited Elizabeth Peregrine, single woman. The charge vas originally a highly felonious one; but the Graud Jury ignored the bill and returned one for common assault only. Mr. Benson conducted the prosecution and Mr. Groves de- fended the prisoner. Elizabeth Peregrine examined I am a single woman, residing at Aberamen, near Aberdare. I am in my twentieth year. On tne ISth of May last, I was living with Mrs. Phillips, and had l ved there two months. I was lodging there and so was the prisoner. I got my living by washing about. On the evening of that day 1 started to see my father and mother at Dowlais, I told uo one but the landlady but the prisoner, who was in the iiouse, heard it. I started between seven and eight in the even- ing. The prisoner overtook me on the road. He said, "Come ):1 here to drink," at a public-house. I refused but ultimately went in, through fear. He called for a pint of beer and gave me a little. We went on and he invited me to go into a second public-house* I went in, as he said, "Damn you, come in here," which made me afraid. He called for a glass of beer for himself and a glass of gin for me. He earned me bodily into a third public house, where I drank brandy and water. I left that house before him but he overtook me after I had gone on a hundred yards. I said to him. Go back." He replied God d you, no, I will not." We went on for some time farther, when he said he had got me into a secret place. Wit- ness then described the violence offered to her She was struck down three times her mouth filled with blood. She was kept an hour on the ground, during which, notwithstanding her strenuous resistance, he twice completely assaulted her in a felonious manner. Some men approached, and she was per- mitted to escape. She made no complaint to them, because her mVuth was filling with blood. She went home to her mother, but ivas afraid to complain. A man, named Dart, said that oil the Saturday evening in question, when he was on the mountain, and near the spot re- ierred to by the last witness, he met a young woman who was nYllig bitterly. He did not know who she was, nor had he ascertained, Mr. J. L. Roberts, surgeon, proved that the witness had spat blood—a symptom that might have been occasioned by a vio- lent blow on the chest. She was now subject to violent epi- leptic fits. lie could detect no external marks of violence on her chest. There was a bruise on her knee which might have been occasioned by a kick or by coming in contact with a stone. Mr. Phillips proved that the prisoner returned to her house at a late hour on the night in questio!i behaved very violently as if he was drunk intimated mysteriously that he had com- mitted some dreadful crime, aad said they would be sorry to hear of his fate. I The jury ACQUITTED the prisoner. Daxid A/' Car thy was sentenced to on" year's imprisonment. Hczekiah Austin, for defrauding a benefit society, nine months' imprisonment. Eliza Attwood, one year's imprisonment. Anne Owens, for concealment of birth, one year's imprison- ment. This concluded the criminal 1 usiness.
