SPIRIT of the PUBLIC JOURNALS. FROM THE EVENING PAPERS OF YESTERDAY. GLOBE.—A curious case of mistaken indent i ty is reported under the head of Police in t his day's Globe. A young , man, most respectably connected,. was brought up on a charge of robbery , and his identity confidently spoken to by three witnesses ; so that, had he not fortunately been in a position to clearly prove an alibi, he would probably have been eventually con victedof a crime of which he is undoubtedly innocent. We notice thi case, chiefly for the purpose of point ing out a piece of additional hardship, which we think might have been spared. The Magistrate, though giving his opinion that the accusation originated in mistake, discharged the subject of it only on his entering into his own recognizance to appear at the next session of the Central Criminal Court to answer any proceedings the complaining parties might think proper to institute. The individual alluded to, having taken his passage, and made all his arrangements for immediate emigration to New Zealand, must either postpone his going, or lay himself open to suspicion by leaving the country with a liability to answer a criminal charge still hanging over him. We think the Magistrate might have avoided this alternative ; for if there is no doubt of the party's innocence— and no doubt could possibly exist after the evidence had been heard—what reason can there be for holding him under any further liability ? The case is strongly illustrative of the superiority of the Scotch over the English law, as applicable to charges of this kind. According to the former, the depositions would be placed in the hands of a public prosecu tor ; who, if he saw no sufficient ground, would re fuse to proceed, and the party improperly accused would be discharged, leaving it to the complainant to proceed afresh on his own responsibility. There is no doubt that had the same rule existed in England, the individual unjustly implicated in the case which has led to these remarks would have been unconditionally set at liberty. STANDARD.—Nothing can be more wise, and, indeed, nothing can be more just, than to en courage, by the most liberal dispensation of the public patronage, the loyalty of loyal Roman Catholics. It is wise, because, while it adds to the strength of the party supporting the laws, it takes from the incen diaries the pretext of suffering from sectarian persecution, and exhibits them in their true character of persecutors themselves ; for all this insolence and triumph is persecution, the only persecution, indeed, for which any present opportunity exists, but a sufficiently plain proof that they who use it would not, if they had power, stop short of the rack and the stake. No sincere Protes tant, therefore—no man who cares for a cause more than for personal gain, can grudge the most pro digal accumulation of favours upon such men as Mr. Coppinger (the " Orange Papist" of the O'Connell journals), or upon such men as Mr. Eneas Macdonnell, whose inestimable services will not, we trust, continue unrewarded. In this way the country will be best prepared for the O'Connell crisis whenever they who treat the British connection, the British law, the Queen's title, and the title of the Church, as merely " titular," shall muster courage to bring it on. Let Ireland be governed upon exactly the reverse of those principles upon which Ireland has been governed for half a century, the crisis will be a trifling matter. When we speak of reverse principles to those which have dictated the Irish Government for half a century, we mean to recommend simply the ad ministration of the Government without favour and without fear—namely, to give everything to justice, nothing to menace ; far better allow to be taken from you by force that which you cannot defend, than sur render it to threats ; for weakness may be but tem porary, and it may be repaired by any of a th:aisand aids, but the opinion of cowardice is permanent and ineffaceable. Hence it is that, as Mirabeau says, " what is conceded to menace never satisfies." 2110NEY MARKET and CIT Y NEWS. TIMES.---It appears by the New York papers that a meeting of ship-builders was in contemplation at Boston, to take into consideration the depression that has occurred in their business. Complaints of the sort, and of the decline of commerce, are said to be very common in the New England States, and this decline is attributed to a variety of circumstances. Many of the great fortunes at Boston having been made during the war, in consequence of the immense carrying trade of the United States, a great portion of that trade was continued even after the proclama tion of peace. But as there has now been a peace for nearly 30 years, other countries have gradually ex tended their merchant-marine, and the Americans find themselves no longer possessed of a monopoly. This is a state of things which some cf the journalists say cannot raise any just cause of complaint, however it may be lamented. If the United States hold com mercial intercourse with any other nation, it is natu ral to suppose that nation will do half the business ; and the complaints which are made by the American shipowners would seem to have in view the absurd theory, that the: United States will hold no intercourse with foreign nations unless allowed the whole business of fetching and carrying. BACKING OUT of a DIFFICULTY. We understand that misapprehensions have existed in the minds of many regarding the declaration sub scribed against travelling by the Edinburgh and Glasgow Railway, so long as the Railway Company persisted in running their trains on the Lord's Day. The terms of the declaration were, that " the sub scribers would give a preference to other modes of conveyance"—not that in no case, however pressing and urgent, would they travel by the railway. This was the interpretation unanimously put upon the clause by the Committee who framed it : and the di fficulties arising out of the misapprehension of the de claration having lately been represented to them, we understand th a t th e y h ave aga i n ex pli c itly s t a t e d this to have been their meaning. Since the date of the declar a ti on , several other modes of conveyance have been withdrawn ; and in many instances the warmest friends of the Sabbath are left no alternative but tra velling by the railway. We are satisfied, however, that the scriptural opposition to the desecration of the Sabbath in the way referred to, will not be with drawn, but that by all competent means it will be zealously prosecuted. Earnestly do we hope that the Directors and Shareholders will soon see it to be their duty, as well as their interest, to remedy the evil com plained of.—Scottish Guardian. It required no gift of prophecy to foretell from the outset that this would be the upshot of the agitation against the Edinburgh Railway. The Non-Intrusion coaches, which were kept for months on the road, although scarcely any passengers travelled by them, must have cost a tolerably comfortable sum to certain of the parties engaged in the struggle ; and, now that these vehicles have been abandoned, it would be not a little instructive could the public procure informa tion regarding the expense of the frolic. We suspect that this will be kept concealed ; but it must prove satisfactory to those who signed the declaration against railway travelling to learn, that they have now ob tained a dispensation from their spiritual superiors, and may henceforth make use of this sinful means of communication. It is well that a loop-hole of escape has been provided for tender consciences, and it is rumoured that, in consequence of the ban of the Kirk having been thus removed, the Directors of the Railway, by way of showing their gratitude to the clergy, propose to start a special train for the ap proaching Convocation, the sale of the tickets to be confined to the Kirk Sessions and the members of the Church Building Society. Further particulars man be learned on application to Mr. W—m C—ns, or Mr. ; and travellers by the Greenock or Ayrshire Railways will obtain every information from the Rev. J—s G—n of K—y. —Glasgow Argus. THE LATE GENERAL SIR GEORGE TOWNSHEND WALKER, BART., G.C.8., LIEUTENANT-GOVERNOR or CHELSE.A.

A. MILLEEISM. — A newsboy, of New York, who had sold a large number of President Tyler's 'Veto Message, remarked, that Miller's prediction as to the world's coming to an end next year would never b e fulfilled, because Mr. Tyler would veto it. LAW INTELLIGENCE COURT OF QUEETV'S BENCH, Nov. 18. NEAVE C. RUTTER. This was a special case, agreed upon between the parties, the object of which was to ascertain whether the chapel wards, and a portion of the land of Chel sea Hospital, was liable to the sewers-rate. The plaintiff, Mr. Richard Neave, was Secretary to the Commissioners of Chelsea Hospital, and the defend ant, Mr. Rutter, was one of the collectors of the sewers-rate, in the employ of the Sewers' Commissioners of Westminster. The action was one of trespass, and the declaration stated that the defendant had entered Chelsea Hospital, and had taken and seized one seat from the Hospital chapel, one table from the common hall, and one table from one of the sleeping-rooms. The plea stated that these buildings had been duly assessed, and were liable to the sewers-rate of 891. ss. 6d., payment of which had Wen refused, and therefore the goods in question had been distrained. Mr. WATSON, on the part of the Commissioners of Chelsea Hospital, stated that the chapels and wards had been rated at 841. 10s. 6d., on a rental of 3,381/., and the lands to 4/. 155., on a rental of 5701., making a total of 89/. ss. 6d. This portion of the Hospital had never before been assessed to the sewers-rate. It was now assessed as being in the occupation of Mr. Heele, a gentleman who had no occupation in it whatever. Lord DEN3IAN said that the case seemed to him very similar to the case of Tracy and Taylor, which had been before the Court the other day ; and as on that occasion the arguments had been 'Very fully gone into, the Court would be glad to hear Mr. Kelly (who appeared for the Commissioners of Sewers) offer any arguments to show whether any rate could be laid on any person other than the occupier of the premises ; and also what he had to say to show that the person rated in the present instance had any occupation. Mr. KELLY said that the first point on which it was sought to exempt this portion of Chelsea Hospital from the payment of sewers-rate was, that it was Crown property. Now as Chelsea Hospital had never been occupied as a Royal Palace, but was held by the Crown only as trustee for the pensioners who were in the enjoyment of the benefit of the institution, he contended that it was liable to the sewers-rate, and had been rated in the name of Mr. Heele, the Clerk of the Works. By. the terms of several of the statutes of sewers, all lands, without ex ception, which derived benefit, from the sewerage, were liable to the sewers-rate..No lands were exempt except those in the actual personal occupation of the Sovereign, and in the use of Netherton and Warne, 4; I3arnewall and Adolphus, 81, it had been held that Crown lands were liable to be assessed to the sewers rate, whether the Crown had beneficial occupation or not. With regard to the second point that Mr. Hall had no occupation, and therefore was not the proper person to be assessed, he (Mr. Kelly) contended that it was perfectly immaterial, if the lands were liable, who was the person assessed. The object of the assessment was, in the event of payment being re fused, to enable the Commissioners to enter upon the land liable to the rate, and to seize any chattel they might find thereon, and sell it for payment of the rate. It was, therefore, immaterial who was as sessed. The Commissioners might if they had chosen have assessed one of the pensioners, and on his refusal to pay the rate have entered and seized. The Learned Gentleman cited several cases in sup port of this position of his argument. It was admit ted that the lands were benefited, therefore they were liable to be rated. There was no exception in favour of Crown lands ; being liable, it was utterly immate rial who was the person assessed. In fact, it was not necessary to name any one, and therefore he submit ted that the Court must give its judgment in favour of the defendant's plea. Mr. WATSON, on the other side, contended that the assessment was not good, inasmuch as it was not an assessment upon the lands or tenements, but upon Mr. Hall ; and inasmuch as Mr. Hall was not in the occupation of the lands and tenements, he was the wrong person to be assessed, and therefore the assess ment was void altogether. If he (Mr. Watson), hav ing no connection whatever with Pembroke Dockyard, were to be assessed to a sewers-rate for that dockyard, and were to traverse, and the Commissioners were to find that he had been properly assessed, would that be contended that therefore they would have a right to enter that dockyard and distrain, without the Com missioners of that dockyard having had any opportu nity of disputing the assessment, or any knowledge of the rate having been made ? The present case was like the one he had put. The Commissioners had assessed Mr. Hall, who had no occupation, and there fore the rate was void. If the law intended that the land, not the persons, should be assessed by the Com missioners of Sewer*, what necessity was there for them to have recourse to the poor-rates ? Clearly only to ascertain the persons to be assessed. Upon the terms of the statutes of Sewers, he submitted that the sewers-rate was clearly only assessable upon per sons as occupiers s,f land. The Learned Counsel having quoted several authorities in support of this opinion, submitted that the Court must give judgment for the plaintiff. The Learned Gentleman having concluded his argument, The Couesr took time to consider its judgment. ROSE C. THE EAST INDIA COMPANY. _ _ Mr. KELLY stated that as there appeared to be no chance of the parties coming to an arrangement in this case, he was :desirous of knowi►ig whether their Lordships were of opinion that there ought to be a rule for a new trial. Lord DENMAN—We think there ought. Rule granted. COOKE V. PEARSON. The plaintiff in this case had invented an improved German shutter for carriages, for which he had taken out a patent, and he had sued defendant for an infringement of that patent. The action had been tried, and the Jury had returned a special verdict, so as to have the opinion of the Court on the point as to whether the title of the patent was too large. The title of the patent was for certain improvements in carriages. It was contended on the one side, that as the invention was applicable to a small portion of a small number of carriages only, and not to carriages generally, the title was too large, and the patent, therefore, void; and on the other that the title was not too large, that there was no case that could be quoted on the other side, and that, therefore, the patent was good. The Attorney-General argued the case for the plaintiff, and Mr. Erie for the defendant. The C OURT took time to consider its judgment. BAIL COURT, 11Tov. 18. IN_ THE MATTER OF CAPT. ARCIIIBALD DOUGLAS. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL, addressing. the Court, said,--I understand, my Lord, that Captain Douglas is in attendance before your Lordship under a habeas corpus, an d I h ave to pray that he may be charged with he m a3 th , the informatio n comintt ea t filo theed against custody in order that u l c e a s p s t h a e should give i n Douglas b ai bail. having pleaded not indictment fo r ex t ort i on, under whichhegut guilty to the was charged, h Mr. CHAMBE RS sa id t h at he appeared on e Captain Douglas, to m a k e an application the - alf of same substance as that made by th e Attorney Gera However that point need not b e di scussed at present.ne. But with regard to the amount off` bail, th e penalty sought to be recovered here in shape of a sum alleged to have been taken, according to the expressions of the statute, " by way of g i ft, ., and which amounted to 12,8001. He did not however, think it would be absolutely essential to give bail to the amount of the penalty sought to be re covered. The statute, it was true, required sufficient security to answer and pay all forfeitures and penal ties, if the party, should be convicted. There was a precedent for such a course in the case of the King v. Stephens and Agnew, reported in sth East. In that case the penalty sought to be recovered was to the same amount, but the course adopted was to refer it to the Attorney-General to say what amount of bail he would require, and he referred it to the Court of Directors, to receive instructions from them, and the bail required in that case was 10,0001. The ATToam.rr-GENERAL---That was matter of arrangement. Mr. Justice PATTESON—I find there is a case in which a person of the name of Holland was prosecuted for a similar offence, in the time of Lord Kenyon, and after hearing Mr. Erskine the Court ordered bail for the lowest amount of penalty mentioned in that infor mation, namely, 20,0001. and two sureties in 10,0001 each. The ATTORNEY-GENERAI,--That was under the old statute. Mr. CRAMBERS — Perhaps, then, the better course would be to allow the case to stand over till the Court of Directors are communicated with, and it be ascer tained from them whether they will require the whole amount, or will be satisfied with less. Mr. Justice PA.Trzso.N—l see no objection to that course. The ATTORNEY-GIINERAL—I have no objection, my Lord. lam sure the Court of Directors will af ford every convenience to a person in Capt. Douglas's situation ; but I think your Lordship would be bound to take the highest sum. In the case of Stephens and Agnew the fine was 5,0001., and imprisonment for two years besid e q , or the forfeit ure o f 12,8001., the su m received as a gift. I think my Learned Friend will rather create an impediment by referring the matter from your Lordship. I think your Lordship must require bail to the full amount. Mr. Justice PATTESON----14r.• Chambers need not a pply to have this gentleman bailed at the present moment ; he would then be committed to the custody of the Marshal, and an applicati on to bail him out could be made at any other time.. In the meantime application may be made to the Court of Directors. Mr. Chambers having concurred in the suggestion of the 'Learned Judge, Capt. :Douglas withdrew in the custody of the public died. THE SUN, LONDON, SATURDAY MORNING, NOVEMBER 19, 184 IN THE MATTER OF GENERAL ROBERTSON.--AFFLICA. TION FOR A CRIMINAL INFORMATION. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL applied for a criminal information against a gentleman who was making some applications to the Court of Directors of the East India Company of a very extraordinary nature. General Robertson, one of the Directors, stated in his affidavit that he received, about the 11th of Octo ber, 1841, a letter enclosed in an envelope, addressed to him at the India-house. It was dated Hampton, Sussex, 10th October, and was signed "H. Sharpnel." The letter, after apologising to General Robertson for writing on such a subject, stated that he had a young friend who was desirous of a cadetship, and that as he was himself known to many of the Direc tors, he took the liberty of addressing him on the subject. It also stated that he was the son of Lieut.- General Sharpnel, who voted for him (General Ro bertson), and that he lvvas intimately acquainted with many of the aristocracy, and concluded oy saying, that as he was aware from experi ence of the caution necessary in the matter, the most implicit confidence might be reposed in the writer of this letter, though he was entirely unknown to him. General Robertson took no notice of this letter, and laid it aside. On the 12th of August, 1842, Mrs. Robertson, wife of General Robertson, received another letter, and addressed to his resi dence, 53, Baker-street. It was dated from the post office, Southampton. Ths writer stated that he was acquainted with many gentlemen of education and high standing in society, who were desirous of ob taining commissions in the East India Company's service, and that having the confidence of many of the Board of Directors, he had the honour of making the application in favour of those gentlemen. The letter also stated, that if Mrs. Robertson exerted her influence the writer would cause a sum of 2,0001. a year to be given to her banker, one quarter in ad "ranee. He concluded by saying that he was a pro prietor of India stock, and that the utmost reliance might be placed in his honour and integrity, The second letter was signed K. C.B. Applications of a similar description in the same hand-writing were made to the wives of two or three other Directors. All these letters were in the hand writing of Mr. Sharpnel. The statute under which he (the Attorney-General) made the application was the 49th Geo. 111., chap. 126, which enacted that any person bargaining for or selling any official corn mission, &c., as described in the 6th of Edward VI., chap. 16, should be deemed and adjudged guilty of a misdemeanour. When not only one but several letters of this description were written 'to different parties, it was full time to ask for the interposition of the Court in the matter.—Rule granted. COURT OF BANKRUPTCY, Nov. IV. IN RE HENRY S. COLES. The bankrupt, had been a bill broker in Finsbury crescent, and the amount of debts and liabilities was stated to exceed 60,0001. His available assets would scarcely pay one shilling in the pound. On the last day of examination, a proof which was attempted to be established upon a bill, drawn by Berkely Cassidy, was adjourned, in order to allow the holder to establish the fact or its being for con sideration. Mr. West now proved, by the evidence of the ac ceptor, that he had paid Cassidy47o/. in ready money, besides giving him a phaeton and pair of horses. Several proofs were admitted without opposition, amounting in the aggregate to about 13,0001., after which the further hearing was adjourned for a month. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. (YESTERDAY.) AIARYLEBONE. Four young lads, named Wm. Restall, Win. Boy nam, John Welsh, and Daniel Hogan, were placed before Mr. Long on suspicion of burglary. Police-constable 89 D saw the prisoners skulking about Edgware-road at half-past twelve yesterday evening, and seeing that they wished to avoid him he followed at a distance , through Lisson-grove, and up St. John's-wood-road ; there he stopped them, and as they could give no satisfactory reason for being out so late, he took them .to the station-house. Wh e n searched, several implements used for house-breaking were found upon them. Restall, Baynam, and Hogan were all known to the police as associating with thieves of the most desperate character. Joseph Hutton said, that while in a public-house in Jacob's-mews, he heard the prisoners planning the breaking into some house, and speaking of borrowing some chisels for the purpose ; he informed a friend, who followed them for a little way down the mews, but afterwards returned. Mr. LONG discharged Welsh, as he was unknown to the police, but sent the others to the House of Cor rection for one month each. CLERKENWELL. Samuel Dyer, a famished-looking tradesman, was charged with selling lucifer-matches by William Hughes, a mendicity constable. The prisoner's wife and six children, the eldest of whom eras only nine years of age, came into Court, and quite shocked the Court and spectators, by their starved, sickly look. The offence stated by the constable was that the prisoner had been found selling lucifer-matches in Brunswick-square, at seven o'clock on the previous evening. He actually heard him say to persons pass ing, " Buy a box, I um a very poor man and very hungry." Three of his children were by his side. He had only one or two boxes of matches. Witness took him to the station-house, where he was locked up for the night. Mr. COMAE said he had never seen a more distress ing scene. Why,?(said the worthy Magistrates) these poor little children seem to be in a state of starvation. I never saw such misery. I will not punish the pri soner though the law makes his act an offence. Prisoner—l am a gas-fitter, and have struggled to obtain work, but could not get it. The Wife—Oh, your Worship, I never begged from any one, poor as I am ; I would rather starve than beg. Have pity on our poor little children. Mr. COMBE—I tell you I am not going to punish you. The constable says the prisoner was never seen begging before ; but the children will perish if they continue in the same state. I will send for the parish authorities, and have you all taken good care of ; and as soon as the prisoner has a fair prospect of earning the means of supporting himself and you, he shall be at liberty to leave the workhouse, and do his best for you. THAMES-POLICE. EXTRAORDINARY CASE OF MISTAKEN IDENTITY. —Thursday, Air. Henry Millington, a young man of respectable family, was brought before Mr. I3allantine for final examination on a charge of stealing two silver sauce ladles and a silver dessert spoon, from the resi dence of Mr. Hacon, a merchant, of No. 11, Com mercial-place, Commercial-road, East. Mr. Pelham appeared for the prisoner. The investi gation created an unusual degree of interest from the peculiar circumstances connected with it. Julia Ann Garner, cook to the prosecutor, stated that on the afternoon of Tuesday the Ist inst., about twenty minutes or half-past four o'clock, a man, whom she verily believed to be the prisoner, called at her master's house and said he had some pleasant informa tion to communicate relating to Mr. Hacon's nephew, who went out in the ship Middlesex, to Port Phillip, of which vessel the stranger represented he was second mate on the voyage. Her master was from home, and she invited thelprisoner into the parlour, and requested him to wait till the family came home. Soon after he was gone, she missed two silver sauce ladles and a dessert ialliroaan s d p s T vaen n rd fromg toquestions ave t h l l im ep intol at e bye custody. yßet in the cupboard. On Friday last she m e t th e pr i soner i n t h e Commer cial-road, wore Mr. i a A e L ao p L u A s r t r ha N n E ad , g a t o p h l d band wh en h e ca ll ed at her master's h e witness said th e pr i soner. peared better d resse d than he did then. She verily believed the prisoner was the man, his features and appearance made her believe so. In cross-examination by Mr. Pelham, the witness said she met the prisoner in the Commercial-road a few days after the robbery, and taxed him with it. He then denied it, and informed her where he lived. She was certain it was not later than half -past four when the prisoner called. Mr. Latter, a pawnbroker, stated that he carried on business in the Commercial-road. On Tuesday, the Ist of November, a few minutes before five o'clock, the prisoner brought two sauce ladles and a dessert spoon to his shop, and asked for the loan of c 2 e s r s. ta uon in p it the Nvaasrticle before w ret h e ich atim w e as gwhernanttedhe. prisoner pawned the articles. James Taylor, shopman to Mr. Latter, stated that he received the silver articles from the prisoner. The person who pawned the articles strongly resembled the prisoner, and he believed that Mr. Millington was the same party, but should not like to swear posi tively to him. The prisoner was directed to put on his cap, which had no band on it, and The witness said the man who pawned the goods wore the same sort of cap. Robert Smith, a policeman, No. 277 K, stated that he took the prisoner into custody, and, upon convey ing him to the pawnbroker's shop, both Mr. Latter and his shopman said he was the man who pawned the articles. The prisoner denied having committed the robbery. He searched the prisoner's trunk and travelling-bag, and was unable to find anything re lating to the present charge. He found 231. in cash upon the prisoner, and several letters and documents, which proved that the young gentleman was most re spectably connected, and had recently left Bristol for the purpose of emigrating to New Zealand, and had actually engaged his passage in the ship Phcebe, which left the river on Wednesday. Mr. Pelham—Did you find a cap with a gold band among the prisoner's luggage? Policeman--I did not, Sir. His carpet-bag had a ticket on it, inscribed "J. W. R., passenger's luggage. Bristol to —." Mr. Hacon identified the silver articles produced, and said his nephew went out in the Middlesex to Port Phillip, and the person who called at his house must have been well acquainted with him. Mr. Pelham said he would call witnesses to prove that the prisoner did not leave Bristol until one o'clock on the Ist inst. ; that he arrived at Paddington ter minus at half-past five, and proceeded in a cab to the Saracen's Head, Snowhill, where he remained from six until eight o'clock. It was, therefore, impossible that the prisoner could be the man who committed the robbery at half-past four o'clock in the prosecutor's house. Mr. Nehemiah Newman, landlord of the Cross Keys Tavern, Temple-street, Bristol, stated that he had known the prisoner nine years. He was in his house in Bristol between twelve and one, on the Ist of November. Mr. Millington was to have left Bristol in the twelve o'clock train, but arrived too late at the terminus to proceed by it. He was cer tain the prisoner could not have left Bristol till one o'clock, and the train would reach Paddington at half-past five, and not before. Jamey Thompson, warehouseman, of Bristol, said he partook of some refreshments with the prisoner at Bristol a few minutes before he joined the one o'clock train. Other respectable witnesses deposed firmly to the same fact. Mr. Pelham said the evidence for the defence had so completely answered the witnesses for the prosecu tion that his client was entitled to his immediate liberation. Mr. BALLANTINB recalled the prosecutor's cook, and she still persisted that to the best of her know ledge the prisoner was the man who called at her master's house. She verily and firmly believed he was the man, notwithstanding what she had heard. Mr. BALLANTINB was of opinion the young woman was mistaken. His own opinion was, that the pri soner was innocent, but he had no right to try the case. He would call upon the prisoner to enter into his own recognisance in the sum of 401., to appear at the next sessions of the Central Criminal Court, there to answer any proceedings the parties might think proper to institute. He should not bind over the wit nesses for the prosecution. The prisoner entered into the recognisance demanded of him, and was liberated. A number of country gentlemen from Gloucester and Wilts surrounded him, and led him from the Court, and the greatest enthusiasm was manifested in his favour. HIGH SHERIFFS FOR IRELAND.

The dwelling-house soon after caught fire, and before half-past three, the destruction was complete of both household furniture and stock. By the exertions of the firemen the ad joining houses,- in the occupation of Mr. Amor, pawn broker, and Mr. Cross, boot and shoemaker, were saved. Mr. Upton and his family narrowly escaped, by dropping from the upper windows on to the shop front. The property destroyed is insured in the Bri• tish Fire-office, and the loss is eatiag444l4 3001. THE MARKETS.-(YESTERDAY.) CORN EXCHANGE. The arrivals of English Wheat up to our market this week being on the increase, and there being seve ral parcels in bulk offering which remained over from Monday last, the demand for that article was again heavy, and the prices were quite is per quarter lower than last noted, and yet a clearance was not effected. Rather over 6,000 quarters of Foreign Wheat have come in, while the inquiry for both home and bonded sorts, was heavy, and the rates had a downward tendency. Although we had nearly 10,000 quarters of barley on offer, the best kinds commanded full as much money; but other qualities were neglected. Malt, oats, beans, peas, and flour were unaltered in value. SMITHFIELD. In to-day's market we had a comparatively scanty number of beasts offering, but the whole of them, with the exception of about five, which came to hand last week from Hamburgh, were English fed. The attendance of buyers being numerous, the beef trade was firm, at in some instances, improved quotations, say 2d. per lb. The number of Sheep was scanty, which produced a ready sale for them at full rates of cur rency. In Calves a fair amount of business was done at a rise of quite 2d per 81bs. The Pork trade was steady, at fully Monday's figures. As to the general quality of the supply, this was very inferior. Milch Cows moved off slowly, at from 151 to 191 each, in cluding their small Calf.

Although we have not to say a large supply of hops pressing on the markets, we have still to report a very heavy inquiry for them, at barely previous quotations.

SUGAR.—There continues to be scarcely any de mand for British Plantation, and prices must be quoted again rather lower; more particularly for the inferior. About 800 have been sold this week, inclusive of 112 casks Barbadoes at auction, which found buyers at 61s 6d to 69s 6d for low to very fine quality, being fully previous prices. Molasses have been only partially inquired, for at the prices of last week. Mauritius and Bengal -8.54 bags Mauritius, and 1,819 bags Bengal, mostly sold, but went off heavily, the former at 58s to 65s for low to good bright yellow, low to fine brown ditto, .52s 6d to 575, and the latter at 63s to 70s 6d for low to fine white, mid to fine greyish yellow at 59s Gd to 61s. 1,044 bags very low soft Penan g offered at public sale, were all taken in at 465, being above the value. Privately very few transactions have taken place. Foreign—There has been rather less demand for these descriptions, but holders are extremely firm, and purchasers cannot be made at lower prices ; the business done privately is confined to from 400 to 500 boxes Havannah and Cuba Muscovado, at 16s to 18s, being the previous value. The public sales have offered 385 boxes white Havannah, 189 chests white Pernambuco, and 2,974 bags Manilla ; the two former parcels were all taken in, low to white Havannah at 30s to 355, and the Pernambuco at 20s 6d to 25s 6d for very low to fine quality ; subsequently, however, three-fourths of the latter descriptions have been sold at 19s 6d to 23s for low to mid white. The Manilla all found buyers at 14s to 15s for low soft to mid brown (chiefly damps), being comparatively cheap. Refined. Grocery descriptions remain much neglected, although continually declining prices are accepted. For Crushed there has been rather more inquiry, and some rather large transactions have taken place at 255, which is the previous value, but at this price it is difficult to purchase. COFFEE.—AII descriptions continue much depressed, and the parcels brought to public sale, consisting of 155 casks 76 barrels British Plantation, 403 bags Ceylon, and 1,650 bags East India, were all taken in or withdrawn (excepting the Ceylon) for want of buyers ; good ordinary brown and Singapore Java at 33s to 365, which are again lower prices. Ceylon sold at 62s Gd to 79s 6d for fine ordinary, being about former rates. Privately scarcely any thing has been done. Foreign sorta are likewise neglected, and, in the absence of any demand, must be cons!dered nominal. Only 273 bags St. Domingo have been brought to auction, the sound of which were taken in at 31s 6d for mixed, good ord, pale, and coloury quality, being a decline of fully Is. A few lots, Ist and 2d class damaged, sold at 27s 6d to 295, which are rather lower rates. COCOA.—The public sales have contained 522 barrels and bags Trinidad, and 500 bags (damaged) Guayaquil, the former sold at 32s to 36s 6d for mid grey to good red, which is rather lower, and the latter at 25s to 31s, being comparatively cheap. Rust.—The transactions reported since our last, consist of 300 puns Jamaica at 2s 10d to 3s 84 for 28 to 36 per cent overproof, of common to good quality, fine do, 34 to 38 over, at 4s to 4s 9d, and 100 puns Demerara at 2s 9d to 3s Id, for 30 to 38 per cent overproof, being about previous prices. RICE.-416 bags brought to auction sold at lOs 6d to Ils for mid white Bengal, being fully last week's prices. A limited business has been done privately at former rates. SALTPETRE.—Of 1,943 bags only a small portion found buyers at 28s 6d for 44 to 24 per cent. re fraction, which is fully 6d cheaper ; the remainder were taken in at 28s for 5 per cent. refraction, and 24k also at 28s, being for the latter above the value some parcels have been sold privately at prices fully establishing the above decline. There has been rather more done in Nitrate of Soda, at prices a shade higher, viz., 19s to 19s 6d. SPICES.-883 bags Pimento, and 500 bags Pepper, have been brought to auction ; the former all fbund buyers, but went off very irregularly, at about former prices—viz , at 2d to 28d for mid to good quality. The Pepper was all taken in (ex cepting two lots) at 24d for good clean Pe nang, being the previous value. Cassia Lignea has been inquired for privately, but for the want of parcels offering, scarcely any transactions have taken place. COTTON.--A fair business has been done in this article, at the prices of last week. TEA.—This article is in restricted demand, on ac count of the approaching public sales. TALLOW.—P. Y. C. is rather fircr.er, being 48s 3d to 48s 6d on the spot. k From the London New Price Current of November 18.) SUGAR.—There has been an increased disinclination manifested on the part of the trade to purchase British Plantation Sugar this week ; both grocers and refiners have operated with much caution, although merchants have submitted to a further decline of 6d for yellow, and Is per cwt for brown descriptions. To-day the demand was extremely limited for West India Sugar, and the prices accepted were in favour of buyers, making the decline for the week is per cwt. REFINED.—The home trade have purchased sparingly of refined Sugar this week, and prices have further given way. To-day the operations were extremely limited in Refined Sugar, and a further reduction was submitted to, standard Lumps selling at 74s to 74s 6d per cwt. Bonded Crushed Sugar in brisk request at 25s fur the best ; in other articles there is no variation. MAURITIUS.—There has been less demand, and im porters have been more disposed to sell ; few purchases have been made privately, and a public sale of 854 bags went off quietly at a decline of 6d to is per cwt. This afternoon there was no public sale, and by private treaty few purchases were made. EAST INDIA.—The home trade have purchased spar ingly of Bengal Sugar this week, and former rates have not been sustained by 6d to Is per cwt. This afternoon there was no public sale of Bengal, and by private contract the transactions were extremely limited. FOREIGN.—Holders of white Havannah evince much firmness, but there are at present scarcely any orders. For Brazil higher priceS being demanded has restricted buying. Bahia, good and fine brown at 17s to 18s, low to good white 21s to 24s 6d ; and brown Pernambuco 16s to 17s for low to good. MOLASSES.—Prices keep up for Wrest India ; the de mand is steady for fine sorts, but common are dull of sale. Fine Antigua at 31s per cwt. COFFEE.—Buyers of British Plantation have come for ward reluctantly this week, and the transactions have been upon a small scale ; but importers have refused to submit to any further reduction. Holders of East India and Foreign East India descriptions have generally dis played firmness. Mocha has been in fair demand at the former currency, but other kinds of Coffee have been little asked for. This afternoon the demand was limited for Ceylon Coffee for home consumption, and 951 bags at public sale were all taken in at 64s for real good ordinary, being the full value ; but the damaged sold cheap, viz., at 50s 6d to 59s for first and second class. Good ordinary brown Singapore 33s ; good Rio at 32s per cwt. Cocoa.—For Foreign there are several orders, and full prices would be paid, but few parcels are to be met with.. British Plantation is in better request, Trinidad middling and good middling red at 32s to 355, good 36s to 36s 6d per cwt. TEA.—Prices have undergone no change for either black or green Tea this week, but the announcement of the large quantity of 59,000 packages for sale on Mon day next, has caused buyers to operate with caution, and the market has present'sd a dull aspect ; . for some smallparcels 9f CQUU3294 cagol.l cash is 614 have boeu paid, Is 7d for good common sound, acid is 8d to LS 4 3 for common Twankay. To-day there was scarcely any business transacted ie I the Tea market, the trad e wa iti ng f ur th e large public sales.
