CITY, Two O'CLOCK. In the markets for Foreign and Colonial Produce the transactions during the last few days have been of a very limited character, and, with the exception of tea, scarcely any alteration of impor tance has taken place in prices. At public sale tea sold rather slowly, at a decline of about 4d. per lb. Sugar has been very quiet, but holders still continue to demand full rates for most of the better qualities. The transactions in coffee have been unimportant, and prices have exhibited little alteration. A fair demand has been experienced for new fruit, and prices have been supported, more particularly for good and fine qualities. Saltpetre has been dull, and at slightly reduced quotations. For tallow there has been rather more inquiry, and prices have shown an upward tendency. Accounts from Liverpool state that the Cotton Market yesterday continued very dull, and prices of all descriptions were at a slight decline. The sales were estimated at 5,000 bales. In the Rail way Share Market there was rather more anima tion, and values in some instances improved. Although the Bank authorities consider it pru ' dent or unnecessary to reduce their rate of dis count below 3 per cent., and there is, more over, some probability of an increased exporta tion of specie, the existing easiness and abund ance of money may be expected to continue. Until trade expands to a sufficient extent to bring into use a further large proportion of the resources of the general market, which are now considered excessive, no permanent alteration in this respect need be anticipated. But there is one point that seems to have escaped the notice of those who have criticised the proceedings of the Court in rather -severe terms, viz., the pro bable effect of the resolution announced some time ago, by which it was determined that the autho rities would hereafter decline to re-discount for the brokers. When, therefore, the plethora now expe rienced decreases, and the demand, through ex tended trade requirements, and the promotion of new home and foreign schemes, again be comes animated, a sudden reaction may set in, necessitating a rise in the terms of dis count instead of a reduction, which many are now disposed to advocate. That a movement of this kind will occur before many months have passed seems exceedingly probable, and the con tingency is, no doubt, fully weighed by the executive of the national establiAlment, in reviewing from week to week the position of their resources, and the manner in which they are likely to be influenced by the developement of various im portant symptoms, which, from their apparent insignificance, scarcely attract the notice of the general public. The meeting of the Great Indian Peninsula Rail- Way Company took place to-day. It appears that 130 1 miles of railway are open for traffic, 732 under contract, and 3721 unlet, together 1,2351 miles. To meet the increased liabilities the directors had Made a call of £2 per share payable on the 25th N ovember nex t, w hi c h w ill p l ace a ll t h e unpa i d sha res upon the level of £4 per share paid. The receipts for th e h a lf year were £42,166 4 s. 7d ., and the expenditure, £17,075 13s. ld., leaving a bal ance or pr o fit o f £25 , 090 1 l s. 6 d . T he report i 8 now under discussion. A special meeting of the Scottish Australian Investment Company was held to-day—Mr. Dick 'son in the chair; the object being to confirm the conversion of the shares into stock, agreed to at a previous meeting, which having been passed, the meeting adjourned. A meeting of the Cologne Mining Company took Place to-day. It was hoped that the mines might, in copsequence . of the change of management, be worked at a profit. The accounts showed a balance in hand of £235 4s. 6d. Although the transactions in the English Stock Market are very limited, the quotations are well maintained. Business is, no doubt, impeded by the desire felt among the speculators to await the Bank return, and the statement respecting the ex changes, before enlarging their engagements.

THIS LAY'S MARKETS. CORN EXCHANGE. ARRIVALS THIS WEEK. BOROUGH :HOP. £l3, from Mr. Golding, chief clerk to Mr. Wray, the re ceiver for the metropolitan police force. The prisoner, who pleaded not guilty, was defended by Mr. Sleigh. From the evidence of Inspector Mitchell, of the F division of the metropolitan police, it appeared that Gymer was one of the constables lately employed to ap prehend ticket-of-leave men who by any misconduct had forfeited their licence and so became liable to serve the remainder of the term of the original sentence. When em ployed on this duty the constable has in each case to prepare an estimate of the expenses of tho journey to the place where the convict is to be apprehended. In most cases the convict is at this period in gaol, undergoing a sentence for some offence subsequent to his liberation on ticket of leave, and the custom is for the constable to be at the prison at the time of the convict's discharge from that subsequent impri sonment, and to apprehend him on the spot by a warrant from the chief magistrate (Mr. Hall). The estimate of expense is made out on a printed form, called an " imprest," which must be submitted to the superintendent (Mr. Durkin) for his signature, and afterwards to one of the commissioners of police, who also signs it. It is then presented by the clerk to the receiver, who pays the money. In the present case, Gymer submitted to Mr. Mitchell, inspector of the F divi sion, at that time acting as superintendent, a report he had been instructed to go to Birmingham to apprehend a convict, with an imprest containing an estimate of the expenses of the journey, amounting to £l3. In the absence of the super intendent, it was impossible for Mr. Mitchell to know that he had not received such instructions. He accordingly signed the imprest. Gymerobtained the money without the signature of the commisioner, by representing to Mr. Golding that it was a case of emergency, requiring him to start im mediately, and that there was no commissioner within. Remaining in town, however, he was seen by Mr. Mitchell, who inquired why he was not gone. He said he was in formed that the convict was in the infirmary. After a few days, Mr. Mitchell becoming dissatisfied, insisted on the pri soner returning the money, which he did, after endeavour.. ing to evade it by saying he had already returned it to Mr. Golding. He then begged Mr. Mitchell not to report his conduct, as he should' be dismissed. It afterwards ap peared that he had received no instructions to go to Bir mingham to apprehend any convict. The prisoner excused his conduct by saying he had had his pocket picked of a purse containing A number of witnesses having been examined, Mr. Sleigh addressed the jury for the prisoner and con tended that no cast of fraud had been made out. The jury returned a verdict of not guilty, upon hearing which the man fell to the ground, and was conveyed in a senseless state from the Court. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. —(Thi s Day), MARLBOROUGH -STREET. WATCH ROBBERY BY A BOY.—Henry Fraier, an errand boy, and Edwin Harper, a costermonger, were charged (the former on his own confession) with stealing a watch of the value of £2 10s., from the Marquis of Granby, Brick -street. Frederick Jemnett said that he missed his watch on Tuesday afternoon last, and told the prisoner Fraser, who slept with him, he had done so. He replied, " That's a bad job. I know nothing about it." He then gave informa tion to the police. Wm. Gordon, 336 A, said the prisoner Fraser admitted to him taking the watch, and said he had hid it in the dung heap; and, on going with the prisoner Harper, he having previously told him about it, he could not find it, and that, as no one else knew where it was, he must have taken it. In answer to Mr. Bingham, Fraser admitted taking the watch and hiding it, and not being able to find it on going with the other prisoner, who had told him he could " get him out of it." Mr. Cort, watchmaker, of 10, Chapel-street, said the boy had offered; the watch to him for sale, but he refused to purchase it. Mr. Bingham said he should discharge Harper, and re.. mand the other prisoner for a week. THE LATE CASE OF MANSLAUGHTER. —In the course of the morning Mr. Alfred Jones, 64, Grosvenor-street, handed to the magistrate for the widow of Robert Langdon —the full particulars of whose case have been fully reported in this journal--the following sums :—Mr. Jones, 41; Mrs. Jones, 10s. ; Miss Burton, 55. ; and Mr. Poling, 2s. 6d. The widow is left with four children, and is near her accouchement. Fresh up, to-day, only a limited supply of English wheat came to hand, coastwise and by land carriage. Although the show of samples of both red and white was small, the demand for all kinds ruled heavy, at Monday's currency. A liberal supply of foreign wheat, 8,220 quarters, has been reported this week. Even the finest qualities met a dull inquiry, but we have no change to notice in the quotations. Floating cargoes of grain met a dull inquiry. The supply of most kinds of barley was moderate. Fine malting samples realised full quotations. Other kinds moved off slowly, at late rates. We had a moderate inquiry for malt, on former terms. Oats, beans, peas, and flour, the supplies of which were seasonably good, moved off slowly, at Monday's currency. Wheat. Barley. Malt. Oats.

To-day was appointed for the last examination of this bankrupt, whalatad been the manager of the Royal British Bank, and is in confinement under a conviction for fraud. It was promised on the last occasion that, should an ad journment be granted, accounts should be ready for this meeting, but none had been filed. Mr. Linklater, for the assignees, said he must admit the difficulty in which the bankrupt was placed, as the expense of obtaining access to the books would be great. The assignees would not object to an adjournment, with protec tion to enable the bankrupt to attend the court and file his accounts. His Honour said that repeated adjournments only en tailed expense on the estate, and he would adjourn the case sine die, with limited protection. CLERKENWELL COUNTY COURT. (Before Mr. Sergeant Jones.) SERVANTGALISM-MASTER AND SERVANT-DEARY V PAUL. Mr. T. Beard, of Basinghall-street, appeared for the plaintiff. This was a claim for wages, and wages in lieu of notice, and Mr. Beard stated that his client, a poor servant girl, entered defendant's service in July in the present year, and left in September, without notice, under the following peculiar circumstances :—Plaintiff had a holiday on the 9th of September, and was ordered to return the same day at two o'clock. She was informed during her peregrinations that her sister was ill, and, calling upon her, the time flew so quickly that she was not in till three. Defendant and his housekeeper swore she was drunk, made her sign a paper, said she might summon if she liked, and ejected her by a summary notice, known as, " Be off." Plaintiff was called, and was by no means a smart speci- men of a servant girl. She stated the various circumstances noticed by Mr. Beard in his opening. Defendant had made her sign a paper with her cross. She could not either read or write. She received a month's wages on the morning of her holiday, but not one penny when she put her cross to the paper. When she returned Miss Taylor or Mrs. Paul turned her out of the kitchen, and she (plaintiff) told her that it should not occur again. Defendant accused her of being drunk. She was not so. I A witness was called, who swore that plaintiff had only had one glass of wine all day. Mr. Paul said he was resident medical officer at St. Pan cras Dispensary. Plaintiff returned on the day in question drunk. Ha would swear she received two months' wages on her holiday, viz., one month in the morning, and the other month when she was discharged. He considered that she was rightly discharged, as she was drunk and very abusive. Mrs. Paul said the girl was no use to her as a servant She was dear at nothing. She saw her husband pay plain tiff money in the morning and money when she was dis charged. She heard nothing about summoning. Mrs. Paul volunteered a statement that Roman Catholics could not take an oath in a County Court. His Honour—lt was a case of hard swearing. The receipt produced by defendant was drawn up so precisely, that his Honour would grant plaintiff a chance of proving her case on a future occasion. He should nonsuit her, and she could get advice. As to the notice,' her saying " this 0 shan't occur again," was rather agai ns t h er. 5i I No costs. CRIMINAL COURT.-(THIS DAY.) OLD COURT. (Before the Lord Chief Baron.) CHARGE OF FRAUD AGAINST TWO MERCHANTS. _ _ Alfred Skene and Archibald Freeman, lately carrying on the business of brokers, in Broad-street-chambers, but now bankrupts, surrendered in discharge of their bail, and were placed in the dock, to answer an indictment charging them with a misdemeanour, under the 6th section 5 and 6 Vic., c. 39, in illegally endorsing and tranfereing to their own uses a certain bill of lading of a cargo of cedar, by the ship Glide, and consigned to Messrs. Cavan Brothers, of Fins bury-circus, merchants, and delivered to the defendants as brokers and bailees, without any authority of transfer ex cept by sale. The defendants pleaded not guilty. Mr. Bodkin and Mr. Poland appeared for the prosecution; Mr. Sergeant Ballantine and Mr. Robinson appeared for Skene, and Mr. Giffard defended Freeman. From the accounts of the case which have already ap peared in The Sun, it will be recollected that the defendants had for some time acted as brokers for Messrs. Cavan, Brothers, and had instructions from them to sell, as their brokers,!rt cargo of timber consigned to them. The defendants then sent their clerk for the bill of lading, which was de livered to them endorsed. The defendants had transactions with the City Bank, in the nature of advances and deposits, and they being desirous of recouping a bill of lading of a cargo of goods from Demerara by the ship Laura Campbell, for which they made advances Mr. Freeman wrote to the bank, proposing to deposit the bill of lading of the ship Glide instead. This was agreed to upon the understanding that within a month the value of the cargo should be paid over to them. A letter to this effect was prepared, and signed by the _defendant Skeen, and the bill of lading of the Glide was deposited with the bank endorsed to John Scott and Co. or bearer. At this time it appeared that the defendants were under pressure from commercial difficulties in a failure to raise money on cer tain securities, and therefore they had recourse to the act of transferring the bill in the hope of recovering it. The cir cumstances, however, became known to the City Bank, and criminal proceedings were taken, which ended in their com mittal. In the meantime a fiat of bankruptcy was issued against them, under which they made a disclosure of the whole transaction. The City Bank have returned to Messrs. Cavan the bill and warrants, and therefore they have sus tained no actual loss, but that being so, it did not remove the legal offence, and the Commissioners in Bankruptcy in structed the prosecution, although no real injury had been sustained. A great number of witnesses were then examined. _ _ Mr. Bodkin was about to reply, but was stopped by The learned Chief Baron, who said there was enough evi dence to go to the jury. The question was one of law more than of fact. He would, however, reserve the point raised by Mr. Sergeant Ballantine, viz., whether the disclosures they had made under the bankruptcy did not protect them against the present proceedings. The jury found both prisoners guilty. Sentence deferred. The defendants were liberated on bail. NEW COURT. (Before the Recorder.) BURGLARY. The young men named John Garrett, Alfred Bygrave, and George Ridington, were indicted for a burglary in the dwelling house of George Lever. Mr. Lever said— I live at 49, Warwick-street, Chelsea, and am a watchmaker. On Thursday morning, the 14th, I was alarmed at hearing the back parlour window break—l sleep there—l got up and saw the man Garrett standing there, but he got down the water spout. I did not lose anything, but some chessmen had been moved from where they were placed the night before the attempted robbery. Mrs. Hannah Lever, wife of the prosecutor, said—l heard the glass break. I believe Garrett to be the man whom I saw standing on the window sill. I looked out the window, and I saw a man, whom I think was Bygrave, standing with a female, who wore a light coloured shawl. I asked him to fetch a policeman. Edward White, policeman, 222 B, said—l took Garrett into custody. I stopped him as he was running away from the prosecutor's. house. I took him back to the place. When I took Garrett into custody he had a fresh cut in his hand which was bleeding. William King, 189 B, said—l. saw Bygrave come to the corner of Berwick-street, and look about, and then Rid dington came to the same corner. They passed me. I asked them what they were doing, and they replied nothing. I took Bygraves' boots off at the station. They were on the wrong feet. I found soil on them similar to that I found on the railings. I also saw there were some white wash marks on Garrett's trowsers. Richard Topson, 245 B, said—T saw Garrett running about half-past one. I found a piece of a lock belonging to Mr. Lever's kitchen door, and also the " jemmy" I produce. I found it very near the window of the parlour. I found marks on Mr. Lever's shop door in the passage which cor responded with the marks on the window. 'grave and Ridington denied being concerned in the burglary. Th jury returned a verdict of guilty against Garrett, but acquitted Bygrave and Ridington. A former conviction for burglary having been proved against Garrett, The Recorder sentenced him to four years' penal servi tude. POST-OFFICE ROBBERY. Two young men, named Dell and Kander, lately em ployed in the Post-office, were brought up for sentence. Upon the prisoners being asked the usual question, why sentence should not be passed upon them, Dell read a long statement, in which he set forth the salary he received, the duties he had to perform, and the reasons that induced him to enter the service of the Postmaster -General. He said he entered the service under the impression that merit would secure his advancement, but he found he was mistaken, and that hard work and bad pay was the lot of men in his position. The Recorder said it would have been the duty of an honest man to have given up a situation he was dissatisfied with rather than turn thief. Mr. Bodkin said the prisoner Dell had been long sus pected of stealing letters, and the three the Ame rican note, and the amount of money found in a portmonaie in his pocket, was strong evidence that those suspicions were not without foundafion. The Recorder sentenced both prisoners to four years' penal servitude. THIRD COURT. (Before the Common Sergeant.) CHARGE OF FRAUD AGAINST A POLICEMAN.

Penn, Coldbath, Green wich, to hear an address from Mr. Alderman Salo mons explanatory of his political principles as a candidate for the representation of the borough. The chair was occupied by Mr. Earnshaw, who commenced the proceedings by briefly alluding to the objects of the meeting. Alderman SALOMONS, who was received with re peated applause, observed th a t it gave hi m pecu li ar pleasure to add ress a meeting of working men. He was himself a working man, and could assure them that since Monday he had worked excessively hard by calling on his f r i en d s th roug h ou t t h at district. He had, in fact, not only worked 12 hours a day, but he had worked overtime, and he felt so fatigued that he began to think that even the high honour of representing Greenwich—for it was a high hon - our—was dearly purchased. Alderman Salomons then referred to the great meeting held during the present week at Birmingham, and especially to the address delivered by Mr. Bright. The English language was never spoken with greater force than on that occasion when Mr. Bright so well enunciated his opinion with regard to the representation of the people. This country was now on the eve of a new Reform Bill. When that Reform Bill was fairly launched it would be the great question of the day, and if it fell short of the just expectations of the people, notwithstanding the present apparent political quietude, they might expect to see renewed in this country something akin to the feeling which prevailed when the political unions were founded in 1832. Of course those who were without the franchise, the great mass of the working classes, would exert themselves to obtain that privilege, and a large extension of the suffrage must result. Whe ther that extension would be manhood suffrage, or to what extent, it was impossible to say ; but if they sent him as their representative, he would support a measure for giving political rights to the masses of the people. Every man had a domicile, and every man who had a domicile should also have a vote. (Cheers.) Alderman Salomons then alluded to the advancement of education amongst the humbler classes as a proof that there was no danger to the social fabric by a wide extension of political rights. He confessed himself a convert to the ballot, and he was so because he believed it was needed by the working classes. A man who worked for a master was often in a position that he had to choose between giving up his o wn conscientious opinion or offending his e mployer. i asfeelingthi w of the workin g classes on under stood subject v e our l a b our i n return for th it e w wages, but we wish also to retain our opinions without giving offence. He therefore conceived that no Reform Bill would be perfect unless it contained a provision for the ballot. The question of church rates ought also to be immediately settled, as they were a fruitful source of discord and bad He should therefore support an entire abolition of these rates. Alderman Salomons then reviewed his past connection with that borough. They returned him, and he could not sit, but he battled for his seat in the courts of law ; and although at a subsequent period he was rejected by the constituency, yet they told him that whenever he could take his seat, he should be sure of it. He now asked them to redeem that promise; and he had certainly found that a few who were very sweet upon him were now supporting Angerstein. How ever, if there was consistency in the electors of Greenwich he should be the test of that consis tency, and from the support he had received he had no fear as to the result of the contest. Alderman Salomons then replied to various questions from electors, and a resolution, pledging:the meeting _to support him at the poll, was ,moved by Mr. Winter, seconded by Mr. Oxley, and unanimously adopted.
