Mr. Evans, the principal surveyor, and James Fogg, a surveyor of police, said that the prisoner wore a gold ring on his finger during the two last examinations, but be had not got it on that day. Mr. Stephens—l wish to clear the prisoner of that. Will you ask the witnesses if it is not customary for other police men to wear rings? Mr. Ballantine—Yes, I know that persons of his class of life do wear rings, and very absurd it is. I saw a Jack in the water with one on his finger the other day. James Elims, the watchman on the works of the Tunnel Company, stated that the fire which occurred on the pre mises where he was employed broke out on the night of the 13th in a storehouse, in which were a number of broken casks, piled up in a heap. At an early hour in the morning he was in the Tunnel-yard, when he was alarmed by the springing of rattles. He ran into the street and found the storehouse on fire, and Palmer and another person giving the alarm. The storehouse and dwelling-house were de stroyed. A person might have put his hand through one of the windows and dropped a lighted match on the combus tible materials within. Palmer told him the same evening that he was not the first that discovered the fire, but that a man and woman first informed him (Palmer) that a fire had broken out.

ASPECIAL CAUTlON.—Whereas numerous frauds are constantly practised by persons, substituting for Betts Patent French Distilled Brandy, articles spurious in their character, and decidedly inferior in all their qualities ; and the con tinuance of such practices, when undetected, being naturally calcu lated to create a prejudice against the legitimate article, J. T. BETTS and CO. may stand excused for earnestly cautioning the public against forming any opinion of what may be represented as their Brandy, without previously satisfying themselves of its identity. Whenever this is done they feel assured that any existing prejudice, however deeply rooted, must yield to the manifest superiority of its quality ; and the wide difference between their's, and the articles thus fraudulently substituted for it, will, by comparison, be ren dered apparent to even the least experienced persons. By this test, and upon the intrinsic merits of their Brandy, they are perfectly willing that it should stand or fall. It is not without some degree of reluctance thit J. T. Betts and C.. again press upon public attention the subjoined testimo nials, selected from many others of eminent chemists, by whom their Brandy has been analyzed—but the continuance of the frauds to; which they have here adverted, compel them to adduce in its fa vour the evidence of names whose high character and talent are be yond all question. EXTRACTS FROM TESTIMONIALS. " Your Brandy is free from uncombined acid and astringent matter, which exists more or less in most of the brandies imported from France. " JOHN THOMAS COOPER, " To Mr. Betts." " Lecturer on Chemistry. " I am bound to say, and do assert it with confidence, that for purity of spirit this cannot be surpassed, and that your patent Brandy is also quite free from those acids which, though minute in quantity, always contaminate the foreign spirit. " JOSEPH HUME, " J. T. Betts, Esq." " Chemist to his Majesty. J. T. Betts and Co. may further be allowed to state, that they are not connected with any other house, and that they do not sell any other article than Brandy, which is of the highest legal strength, and may, at all times, be tasted at their distillery, No. 7, Smith field-bars, their only establishment ; where it may be had, either pale or coloured, at 18s. per imperial gallon, sent to any part of town, in quantities not less than two gallons, for cash on delivery. - 100 TULLETT, WINE, SPIRIT, AND 110, BRANDY MERCHANT, NEW MARSH-GATE ESTABLISHMENT, No. 40, WESTMINSTER-BRIDGE ROAD.

When this Office is advertised as doing the most extensive Insurance business in Scotland, it is proper and, indeed, due to another very respectable Office, the SCOTTISH UNION (who have recently established a Board in London, and also advertised themselves as doing the most extensive Insurance business in Scot land), to state, that the claim to public confidence preferred on this wound by the SCOTTISH WIDOWS' FUND AND LIFE ASSURANCE SOCIETY only applies to LIFE ASSURANCE. They have no connexion with FIRE INSURANCE, in which the SCOTTISH UNION have certainly a very large business.

C, S, 12m0.. 75, The information obtained yesterday, addressed to the Governor of the Russia Company, from St. Petersburgh, is of much interest to parties engaged in the trade with Russia. The advices reach down to the 26th ult., and contain intelli gence relative to the state of the navigation. The Neva had been covered with ice ; but, on the 20th ult., a heavy gale had sprung up, which broke up the ice, and filled the road with floating pieces ; and a stream of water was formed as far as Orananbaum, cutting off all communication from shore to shore. On the morning of the 10th, not less than twelve sail of vessels were incrusted in the ice ; 'and those at the edge endeavoured by setting all sails, to force a passage, but with out success. The four ships at the water's edge were sup posed to be the Caroline, Allendale, and Blackwater, and a Russian vessel. The Flora and the Westmorland were en deavouring to gain the harbour. Among the ships below, up ward bound, were t wo A mer i c an, two British, a nd two Rus sian vessels. On the 20th, some of the vessels below attempted to force a passage through the ice, and an American nearly succeeded. The Prince of Coburg had, after some difficulty, reache'd a place of safety. The David Walton, Captain J. Whitfield, and the Victory. Captain J. Sibbett, were among the ships in the ice. On the lath, ships and ice remained in the same position. A large Russian vessel on this day endea voured to get up. At Orananbaum the road was not good, though many people have passed over the ice. The glass was 43- degrees below freezing point, but at the state of the pre sent accounts, it had risen to six degrees, and the snow was melting. Since the commencement of the present season there had arrived out at St. Petersburgh 719 British ships, and 707 had left the port, leaving 12 vessels still there. It is a remarkable fact, though hitherto unnoticed, that on the 25th of August last, one of the days on which the late eruption, attended by such disastrous consequences, took place at Mount Vesuvius, a shock of an earthquake was ex perienced at Comrie, in Perthsire. —Scotsman. CURRENT PRICE OF HOPS, DEC. 10.—The de mand is better than it has been since the high rate of duty was declared, but trade, as it generally is at the present time o f the year, by no means brisk. Inferior qualities of both Kent Sussex pockets may be rated at 2s. to is. Isawar, but the superior qualities remain stead price. :Present cur rency':—Essex pockets, 4L 15s. to Si. 10S. ; superior ditto, 6/. 6s. to 71. 7s. ; Farnham, 81. Bs. to 9/. ; Sussex pockets, 4L Os. to. 41. 10s. ; superior do., Si. to 51. ss. ; Kent pockets, 41. Its. to 41. 15s. superior 40, 2 to 71. Kent bags, 41. 101. tQ al, Mr. Ballantine said that he had given directions for the policeman to wear his uniform while under examination, that the witnesses might be better able to identify him, and was surprised that he had not done so. Mr. Stephens, the inspector, was then sworn, but the subject of the prisoner's dress was not further alluded to. He stated, in answer to questions by Mr. Ballantine in re ference to the rule made with reference to the lanterns sup plied to the policemen, that each sergeant was supplied with them on particular occasions, in reference to the ne cessity of the case. The men were on night duty for two months, and on day duty for one month. He could not swear that the prisoner had a lantern on any particular night, but the sergeant would be able to say whether he had one or not. He remembered the fire on the premises of Mr. Brook, of the Tunnel Wharf, on the morning of the ? 14th of Itlovember. The prisoner had no lantern that night.` He recollected the attempt to burn the premises of Mr. Pittman, the barge builder. He was' not present when the prisoner was placed on duty there. He was not aware whether the prisoner had any flint or steel, or phosphorus matches, which would enable him to procure a light on that occasion. He recollected that the prisoner was placed in charge of Mr. Pittman's premises on the following night, though they had been fired while he (Palmer) was on the premises. Mr. Ballantine expressed his surprise at this, and asked for an explanation ? Stephens said that on the same day an investigation took place before Mr. Murray, the Union hall Magistrate, at Rotherhithe workhouse, and he came to the conclusion that there was no blame attached to the prisoner, in which the other gentlemen present acquiesced. Mr. Ballantine—Who was put on Palmer's beat to sup ply his place in his absence ? Stephens—One of the A di vision, No. 22. a man named Kimber. Mr. Ballantine—Was the prisoner examined on oath or not ? Stephens—l don't know, but his statement was taken down in writing, and he was ordered to return to the premises of Mr. Pittman. Mr. Ballantine—Although a fire had taken place while he was in charge of the building, there could be no deposi tion unless it was taken on oath, Stephens—lt was not on oath ;it was a statement which Mr. Murray has in his possession, and he was of opinion that Palmer was exonerated from all blame, and fifty gen tlemen present concurred with him. James Hamilton, a police sergeant, No. 10 R, who was examined last week, was recalled, and stated that he placed the prisoner in charge of Mr. Pittman's premises on the night of the fire. He believed it was between 10 and 11. Mr. Ballantine—Who gives the lanterns out ? Wit ness—l do. I have so many lanterns for each section, and I give them to the men they are appropriated to. I gave the prisoner a lantern on the night of the fire at Pitt. man's, but it was not lighted. Mr. Ballantine—Could he have procured a light from the adjoining public-house, or had he anything in his pos session to procure a light with ? Hamilton said he was not aware that he had. He re collected the fire on the premises of Mr. Brooks, of the Tunnell Wharf, which occurred very early on the morning of the 14th. The prisoner was placed on night duty about the beginning of the month. The fire at the Tun nel Wharf occurred about half-past two o'clock in the morning. Stephens said he thought it was about a quarter before one. Mr. Ballantine—Did you not get some information that a fire'" was to break out there ? Stephens—No, Sir, not any. Mr. Chambers, the prisoner's Counsel, here entered the office, and addressing the Magistrates, said that it had been erroneously stated that he attended a former examina tion on behalf of the Commissioners of Police, but such was not the fact. He attended for the prisoner, and for him alone was he concerned. Mr. Ballantine and Mr. Combe said they had nothing to do with that subject, but they were quite certain pub licity would be given to the explanation. Mr. Burley, a chemist and druggist, in Rotherhithe, stated that on the evening previous to the destructive fire at Mr. Brooks' premises a police constable called at his shop, and asked for a box of Lucifer matches. He did not enter the shop, but stood on the steps outside with his back towards the light. He did not see his face, but he was quite certain he was a policeman, and that he had his great coat on. He was of a tall stature, stout, and had large whiskers. He sold him a box of Lucifers, but the shutters being up, he could not see his face so as to he able to identify him again. Mr. Ballantine - -Had he a ring on his finger at the time you served him ? Mr. Burley—Yes, he had ;it appeared to be a gold one. It was about half-past ten at night when I sold the Lucifers, and I thought it was to tt e policeman on duty. Mr. Ballantine—Did the person you sold ae Lucifers to make any observation ? Mr. Burley----fes, he said it was very awkward to go in -doors rtler; he came off duty without a light. _ Mr. Ballantine—By 'rubbing one of those matches be tween some paper, a light can be procured. Wit n ess— Yes, Sir, *Pt is the case. Mr• isallantine directed the prisoner to put on his uni form coat, which had been sent for, and his police hat, and he then directed witness to look at him. Mr. Burley said in size and stature the prisonor cer tainly resembled the policeman to whom he sold the matches. Sarah May, s ervan t a t th e St an d ar d pu bli c -h ouse , ad joining the premises of Mr. Pittman, was next examined. She stated that she remembered the fire at Mr. Pittman's premises ; it was on a Wednesday night. She was at home during the evening doing her usual work, and after taking her supper at nine o'clock she went out about ten. Mr. Ballantine—Now, on your oath, girl, did you or did you not go out soon after nine o'clock ; there can be no difficulty in telling the truth. The witness, after some hesitation, said she went out after supper through the passage leading to Pittman's premises. She did not see a policeman there at that time. Mr. Ballantine—On your oath, woman, have you not told some one you did ? The witness, after a long pause, admitted that she had said so but that she was mistaken ; she saw a policeman on the premises on the Thursday night following the fire, and also on the Friday night. It was between nine and ten o'clock when she saw a policeman standing on the edge of the wharf by the counting-house. This was after the fire. Mr. Chambers begged leave to ask if he was to be al lowed to put qustions bearing on the case, and to cross examine witnesses ? Mr. Ballantine could not allow that course to be adopted, or he should never be enabled to get through the investigation ; but the prisoner could put any questions he thought proper, and his counsel could suggest any . to him. He believed the police had the same object in view as he had, public justice and public protection, and there must be no partizanship on their part, or the appearance of any or much disgrace would fall on the force, of which he had a very high opinion. Mr. Chambers protested against the rule laid down by Magistrates which confined his duties to that of a mere note-taker, and said that at most other police-offices cross examinations were allowed, and they were often the means of detecting material facts. Mr., Ballantine said that although be did not confine Mr. Chambers to the duties of a note-taker, he could not allow him to cross-examine, for this was only a preliminary inves tigation. Mr. Ballantine recalled Mr. Stephens, who said the exa mination commenced at the workhouse at nine, and ended at twelve o'clock on the Thursday night, and that the pri soner was detained there until that time. Mr. Ballantine—Then the girl could not have seen the prisoner on the Thursday night at the time she stated ? Stephens--He was not sent for by Mr. Murray until ten o'clock. The inspector then produced a fire-box, which he said was found a few days ago in the vestry-room of the Dissenting Chapel in Rotherhithe, which had been entered during the night by removing a pane of glass, but the pre mises bad not been fired, neither was anything stolen. Mr. Burley said that was not the box of Lucifers sold to the policeman. Mr. Ballantine asked Stephens if the prisoner was in the Mr. Stokes was then examined at great length respect. ing the fire on Mr. Pittman's premises, and confirmed the accounts already given that the prisoner was placed on the premises about eleven o'clock, and that it appeared morally impossible to him that any person could have moved the tar barrels and ignited it without the knowledge of the pri soner. He was of opinion that the premises were of easy access, but certainly not without the knowledge of the pri soner. He knew there was a sewer under the passage by the side of the house, but he thought it impossible for a person to get up that way without been seen. A person might however escape that way. Mr. Warner, the prisoner's solicitor, here said that Glar mon, an Union-hall officer, and a very tall stout man, had gone up the sewer, and come out at the end by Swan-lane. Mr. Ballantine was obliged for the suggestion, and said the place should be examined. Captain Davidson, an inhabit an t o f R o th er hi t h e , an d Mr. Jones, his f r i en d, who were out on the watch the night previous to the fire at Mr. Pittman's, saw several policemen standing near the premises a few minutes before the fire broke out, who told them all was right there. Mr. Redmond, a granary-keeper, said he must have passed near Mr. Pittman's a few minutes before the fire broke out, but he did not see a group of persons there, as described by the last witness. There seemed to be a pre sentiment. that a fire would break out at Pittman's pre mises that night, and a very careful look out was kept. Caroline Davis occupied the house in Rotherhithe the back of which very nearly adjoined the granary of Speck and Redman. There was a shed in the back part of the yard close to the granary, which was discovered to be on fire on the morning of Monday, the 24th of November. About four o'clock she heard a loud knocking at the door, and she got up and looked out of the window, when the prisoner, who was on duty there, called out to her, " For God's sake, make haste, your shed is on fire." She came down, and let the prisoner into the yard, who exerted him self to the utmost to put out the fire. In answer to fur ther questions the witness said the sled could not be seen from the street, but there was a gate at the side of the granary which communicated 'with the yard. The prisoner had told tier that another policeman lifted him up, and he looker!. over the gate and saw fire ; and a baker who lived intone of the adjoining houses said it was the shed. Tke gate was very high i n d ee d. Inspecto r Stepens said the prisoner reported the fire to himi.k.nt he understood it was discovered by another man P:amed Hensom, 87 K. That was the first time he heard anything of lifting up. Mr. Ballantine—Could any one in their ordinary duty see that shed from the street ? Stephens said he was not prepared to answer that question. Mrs. Davis—No one could see the shed from the street except by looking over the gate. Redman said any one standing in the street might have seen the smoke coming from the shed. Mr. Ballantine—But not the fire, unless lifted up, and then, in my opinion, it would be impossible to distinguish whether it was the shed or not. Mr. Henry Stokes said he told two policemen whom he met, one of whom was the prisoner, to look out well at the back of Speck's granary and Mr. Grice's premises, and these were both fired the same morning. Mrs. Davis then further stated that on the evening pre vious to the fire, her boy saw a man creeping along the yard, and he informed her of the circumstance, on which she said it must be a cat ; but the boy declared that it was some thing larger than himself. Sergeant Hamilton, 10 R, said the prisoner told him that a man had lifted him up to look over the gate. Inspector Stephens here produced a cotton handkerchief which was found on the premises of Mr. Christall, the ship-breaker, after the attempt to fire his premises. He said that it had gone forth to the world that it had been withheld by the new police. There was no disposition to withhold it. Mr. Ballantine said he did not ask fey it, nor had ho seen it before, and therefore there could be no blame at tached to Stephens. Several gentlemen, among wi:.om was a Mr. L u th wa it e , who were standing near Ste , ;:nens, here observed that the handkerchief had been wished and ironed since it had been given over at the paeish meeting to Stephens. Mr. Ballantine questioned Stephens as to whether the handkerchiec was in the same state as when he received it ? twhen bP:declared it was in the same state, for it had n ever Deo', out of his possession. Several gentlemen here declared that the handkerchief was in a filthy state when delivered to Stephens, and re ferred to two reporters who were present at the meeting, and they said the handkerchief had certainly been washed and smoothed since Mr. Christall had given it up. Stephens said the handkerchief had never been out of his house. ' Mr. Ballantine said he should not pursue the inquiry any further that day. The prisoner must be again re manded, and further inquiries made. His only object was to elicit the truth, and he should be very happy to discharge the prisoner from the suspicion that was attached to his conduct. Mr. Chambers said that he hoped it would go forth to the world that the prisoner had not had the full benefit of Counsel, or he should on cross-examination have been able to have got rid of much of the suspicion, and have collected from some of the witnesses facts which had been withheld 'respecting the situation of Mr. Pittman's premises. He wished the Magistrates would hear witnesses on the pri soner's side, as it would most probably assist in developing the mystery of the monstrous and abominable system of in cendiarism lately so prevalent in Rotherhithe. After an unsuccessful applicatien on the part of his client to bail, the prisoner was again remanded until Monday next. . DISCHARGE OF STAGG, THE FIREMAN.—Just after the close of the proceedings at the Thames Police Office yes terday afternoon, the worthy Magistrate ordered Magg, the fireman, who has been remanded three times on suspicion of incendiarism at Rotherhithe, to be placed before him, and told him that he was at liberty to go home, as from what he had recently heard, he did not consider it necessary to de tain him a moment longer from his family and duty. Seve ral of his friends in and out of the office congratulated hits on the result, and he was conveyed home in a coach. VILLAGE REMINISCENCES.—" The title oI this work will recall Miss Mitford. These volumes are not, how ever, merely records of village character, village sentiments, or village society ; they embrace several aspects and conditions of life. The title was dangerous, but the work is not hurt by it in the perusal. It is evident from some of the leading inci dents that the author is a student in that almost inscrutable branch of moral anatomy—the heart, and the variety of situa tions in which her . persons are placed affords a fair test of her powers of observation. She succeeds in procuring attention by the natural progression of events, and the life-like quietness with which results are brought about. Yet, without appearing to be very forcible, she is not deficient in energy. Some of the passages are eloquent and stirring, but the main characteristic is the inherent truth that pervades her narrative."—Atlas. LIVERPOOL COTTON -MARKET, TUESDAY, DEC. 9.—We have had a very dull market to-day, and the opera tions are under 2,000 bags, of all descriptions, at a decline of id; to id. per lb, on the quotations of Friday last. CHANGE IN THE CLIMATE.—Those who re collect and paid attention to the climate of this country thirty. years ago, or less, must be convinced that it has rapidly im proved, and that it is at least fifty per cent. more favourable now than it was at that period, and the air infinitely more sa lubrious. Formerly a single fine day throughout the month of November was a rare circumstance, and it acqeired from the continual fogs, mists, and gloom that prevailed, the name of suicide month, but it has long ceased to deserve that charac ter. Irrigation has reduced the humidity of the atmosphere, but there are other causes for the great and favourable change which merit investigation and inquiry. Formerly, in conse quence of the destruction of the apple blossoms by harsh and uncertain weather, the proprietors of orchards did not expect more than one good crop in three years ; but for some years past in succession the apple -trees have produced abundance of fruit annually without any failures. :MR.
