OXFORD CIPvCUIT . "V 7 o 3 CEsrrr . * R , _Jrir 10 th . _—Bctolauv . —Join Harris , 5 ( 50 , James Wood , 2 S , and Joseph _Piaeham , 35 , were _iaindiete-l for having , on the night cf the 4 th Docembibcr last , at the parish of Abberiey , burglariously hi broken and entered the dwelling-house of Sarah PPoanuky , and stolen altogether - £ 22 from it . The _piproaccalrix , a re _= pectib ! c woman , between GO and 70 y years of age , and living alone at a cottage near the I _Ilmidted-housc at the parish of Abberiey , had _acc-i cording to her custom , retired fo lied about eight tt . m . on thc evening of the ith of December list , i iavinrr previously bolted thc _cufcr door anil secured t the windows . Between eleven and twelve thc same i _"niglii she heard _. _sorno men in her Louse , and cried < cut"Jans , " in order , . is she said , to frighten them .
' . Two men came in , to wuom sue positively swore as 1 being the prisoners at thc bar , Bingham and Wood , i and _Bingham said , " I am John , and I ran conic . " ' The pitisecntm , who during . ill this scene , and a i trying one it would have beoa to many men , never _« o _* icc " displayedfear , said to _JJhighaiu , "Well , my < dear , what do you want here V " Your body , " was i thest . _* : _rtVmgrci > ly . _'Yi'batdoyeuw-nitofinyboi . y ?" j _natuniilv inquired thc prosecutrix . " The doctor wants you . " " What docs he want of mc ? " "You : are a notorious bad woman , " said Bingham , " and the 1 % doctor ef Wolverhampton has offered £ 50 for ; your body ; if money we can't have , then your body wc must . " Thc prosecutrix only answered , " Give me time to pray to Heaven for my soul and for you , too . " " Pray away , " replied Bingham ; and then he
asked whether she had any money ; receiving an affirmative answer , he inquired where it was , aud when the prosecutrix fold bun , Wood plundered her of all he could find , that is , £ S in silver and £ 14 in gold . All the while they were in the prosecutrix ' s bed-room they had a lighted _cnnflc with them . They also took a purse from her house . The prosecutrix was positive as to flic identity of tho prisoners . Thc lcarcc-il Judge asked her whether _slie was not at all alarmed even when { as they actually did ) they threatened to strangle her with a rope they Lad with them ? Prosecutrix replied , with great simplicity and feeling , "No , I was not afraid to die , as God is my protector . " Just after they left , the prosecutrix heard thc clock strike twelve . The next morning she went down stairs and
ionnd all in confusion , the window takeu _e ' eaa out , and thc door unbolted from the inside . She also fouud on the floor of the kitchen a cap , and a short iron bar in the scullery . She afterwards had the two prisoners taken to her after tlieir apprehension , that fhe might say if she knew them , whieh sho at once did , recognisingthem both by their features and their voices , and , as she expressed it , " I gave God the glory when they were brought before mc . " Though tiie manner in which the prosecutrix gave her evidence created a general feeling in her favour , yet thc extreme simplicity with whicli she detailed her con--versation with the prisoners on thc night of the burglary was irresistibly amusing , and was the cause of great laughter in court . The _priui-ipal and most conclusive evidence against the prisonersfor the prose
, _catr ix could say nothing against John Harris , was given by a man named Jones , who certainly did not Lear tlie best of characters _luvasclf _. _bp . vingbeen twice tried , onee , indeed , acquitted , but on the second occasion sentenced to transportation . This man stated that on Sunday , the 1 st cf December , Harris fetched Lim to thc becrshop of Mfe . Maria Cartwright , where he feund the oilier two prisoners . They sat together and had some beer . Harris proposed to him to go and do a robbery with them , to which he assented ; they showed him a box of matches , a candle , a rope about three yards long , and a razor . Harris said that it was the house of an old lady they intended robbing , which was at the back of the Hundredhouse . Itwas agreed , tbat _proceedbifr two together , Lut by different routes , they were all four to meet at
six on the _MowiB-i Tuesday evening in a public louse called thc Black Star , at Stourport ; that Harris and the witness were to take nails with them , andthe other two a shovel . The witness , however , afterwards , cither through fear or repentance , re fused to go with them , and told Bingham so when he saw him on the morning of thc proposed burglary The witness never heard of the robbery until the March following , when he was sent for by the police , not to be taken into custody , but to give an account of conversation with the prisoners . In many points the evidence of Jones was corroborated . The jury found the prisoners guilty . Witnesses were called , who gave the prisoners agood character . Lord Dcnxaan sentenced the prisoners to transportation for fifteen years .
HOME CIRCUIT . _Mussioxe , July 22 . —Cciiixo asd Woecdixc—James Austin , 2 _o , a marine , was indicted for feloni ously cutting and wounding Edward Cartwright Middleton , with intent to maim and disable him ; and in another count of the indictment his intent -was said to be to prevent his lawful apprehension for the offence of _burglaiy . It appeared ; from the evidence that on the morning of the 30 th May , between one and two o ' clock , a person named Staples , who fceeps an oil-shop in the High-street , Chatham , was alarmed by a noise in the street and he awoke his shopman , the prosecutor Middleton , and told him to go down and see what was the matter . He did so , and on opening the street door carefully , he observed ihe prisoner standing outside the shop of Mr . Hayler
a watchmaker , opposite , and apparently working with some tool at the shutter . Having watched him long enough to be perfectly satisfied of his object , he -went orer and laid hold of the prisoner , who made a violent resistance , and , finding he could not get away , he at length struck Middleton several blows on the Lead with a chisel , and wounded him in several places . He , however , kept Lim until a constable came np , and thc prisoner was then lodged in the station-house . Upon thc premises of Air . Hayler being afterwards examined it was found that a piece of wood Lad been completely cut out of one of the shutters , making aholelarge enough to admit ahand , near the part of the shop front where a tray of sold
• watches was generally kept , and a chisel , which , no doubt , was the tool that had been made use of , and -with which the prosecutor had also been wounded , -was found lying upon the pavement close to the spot . A surgeon who examined the prosecutor described tho injuries he received as being very severe , and said that he considered one cut , behind the ear , at first , of a dangerous character . The jury found the prisoner Guilty of wounding thc prosecutor , with intent to prevent his lawful apprehension . An officer was then called , who proved that he had been before convicted of felony . Air . Justice Coleridge bavin " commented in appropriate terms upon thc aggravated character ofthe offence , senlcnced theprisoner to be transported for fifteen years .
