MARLBOROUGH-STREET. AUDACIOUS ROBBERY OF A GENTLEMAN'S GOLD SPECTACLES.—G trge Frederick Stirling, alias Phillip Owen, a negro, and who, in 1856, was committed from this court r six months for a daring robbery in Tottenham court-road, was charged with stealing a pair of gold spec tacles from the person of a French gentleman, named Martin Rousillon, at present staying at the Sabloniere Hotel, Leicester-square. M. Rousillon said he was going into his hotel, the Sabloniere, about half-past ten the previous night, when he suddenly from behind had his gold spectacles, of the value of £2, snatched from his face, and he saw the prisoner running. He called out "Stop thief! " and some one stopped him. Mr. Butcher, of 106, Seymour-terrace, Euston-road, hearing the cry of " stop thief," and seeing the prisoner running, after some dodging on his part, secured him. The prisoner fell down, and on his going back to the place after the prisoner was taken into custody he found the prosecu tor's spectacles broken. The prisoner wished the case settled by Mr. Beadon at once. Mr. Beadon said he must go for trial, He was too no torious a thief to have it settled by him. The prisoner, against whom it is said there are several convictions, was then committed for trial, THAMES. SINGULAR CHARGE OF FELONY AGAINST TWO TRADES MEN.—John Dennett, aged 43, builder, of No. 43, Gar dener's-row, Bethnal•green, and Thomas Atkins, aged 45, uilder, of No. 8, Lower Mary-street, Bromley, were brought before Mr. Yardley, charged with stealing a gold Albert chain, value £5, from the person of Mr. Francis Maloney, a custom-house clerk, of No. 16, Grove-road, Stepney. Mr. Charles Young, solicitor, defended the prisoners. It appeared from the evidence of Mr. Maloney that he had been lately making a tour in Ireland, and on the previous evening, soon after his arrival from Dublin, he went into the railway hotel public-house, in the Grove-road, to ob tain some hot water. He stood before the bar for some time talking to the landlady, and while doing so the prisoners entered, and inquired if they could be accommodated with beds. The landlady said she could not supply them with beds. The prisoners then remained at the bar talking about the weather, the crops, and the state of the country. Atkins, who was standing close to him, became very familiar indeed in his conversation. All at once he missed his gold Albert-chain, and accused the prisoners of steal ing it, which they denied. He was certain that one of the prisoners must have taken it. He called for a policeman and gave the prisoners into custody. In answer to questions by Mr. Yardley the prosecutor said that his watch was at home. Ho detached it from his chain before leaving Dublin. He was certain he had his chain when he entered the Railway Hotel. No other per son stood in front of the bar except himself and the pri soners. The landlady remarked that it was strange two gentlemen who lived in the neighbourhood should ask for beds. The chain was loosely suspended round his neck, and not made fast to anything. One of the prisoners (At kins) stopped and conversed with a man on his way to the station-house. The witness underwent a sovere cross ex amination by Mr. Young, and declared he was sober. He wore a large Manners oar e over his coat. It completely enveloped him. Thomas Tarleach, potman at the Railway Hotel, con firmed generally the statement of Mr. Maloney, and said he was playing at dominoes in the taproom while the three men were standing at the bar. Mr. Malony was not sober nor tipsy, but was rather the worse for liquor. A police-constable, No. 183 K, said the prosecutor was decidedly intoxicated when he gave the prisoners into co stody. The chain was not found. Mr. Howlett, a builder, said he knew both prisoners. They were highly respectable tradesmen of unimpeachable character. Mr. Yardley thought Mr. Maloney had made a mistake. No jury would convict on such evidence, and he should not detain the prisoners one minute longer. They were dis charged. The prisoners said Mr. Maloney would hear of this in another court. Mr. Young—l certainly shall advise my clients to bring an action for false imprisonment. THIS DAYS MARKETS. COVENT GARDEN.

SUN OFFICE, &ven o'clock. SPAIN. The Madrid Gazette of the 25th publishes an official account of the birth of the daaughter of the Duch(ss de Montionsier. The infant was at once baptised, and received the name of Maria de las Mercedes, and a great many othees, and among them" Holy Trinity," and " All the Saints." The Queen and King acted as sponsors, and immediately after the ceremony the child was decorated with the royal order of Maria Louisa. The Gazette of .2Vorthern Germany says:— "We have every reason to believe that there is no truth whatever in the telegram pulp lished by Reuter in the London journals stating that the Prince Regent, when at Baden, celled Vie attention of the German Sovereigns to the affairs of Italy."

Walker, will be one of the first witnesses examined, and it will only be fair to this officer, on whom so much responsi bility has been cast, that Lord Clarence Paget should be present, so that the charges which his lordship brought forward last session in his famous opposition speech should be thoroughly explained away, as, up to this moment, not one of them has been substantiated against Sir Baldwin ; and from what we know of Lord Clarence, judging of the honest and good-tempered way in which he has conducted the duties of the office, he will be eager to withdraw that portion of his statement in which he cast the blam e of reck less expenditure upon one who had no more co Bra y use of the public money than he had laiinself.—.4rn y Navy M444(6 -~.-, i a L, _,t C~ t
