THE GREAT SECRET OF TRADE. at 1,041,, Ma houses make a mystery of their business, and one think they were in possession of some great secret, that none tw r `Qcrnselves must know. We see nothing in fair trading that re eas" alYstery—we understand no trade secrets—all we know our tom ess may know, for we desire to be candid. Everybody won how we can sell good articles so cheap. They can all understand r it i s th at peop l e can sell c h eap when the articles are bad. There 0 difficulty in comprehending how common things ar e so ld a t l ow i7s ; but the wonder is how we can turn out Clothe s o f th e b est ity at the small prices we charge. We hesitat e no t t o explain , we do it. First, we buy very l arge quant i t i es of material, not ZTY at the first price, but often at considerably less than anybody could, simply because we buy more largely than anybody else can. tort, we have an immense nu m b er o f fi rst - rate hands, who are equal sy in the trade in th e qua lit y o f t h e i r work, and these are con '';;_Y all the year round. Thi r dly, we emp l oy a num b er o f Su f .__ steady and talented cotte rs a n d fitt ers i n th e ki ng d om , an d k7nntend the work ourselvess upon the premises. But, after all, there tec ret—a something which enables us to sell a better and a Per article than anybody, and that is, we are content with Profits, that is the grand secret. We fear no competition in 4 ), Merl, M aking, and selling. Our clothes . are equal in quality, do uble and style to those for which most tanors charge more than ra ore 'e Price. The vast business we do renders our small profits far tillat„, a , d Valltageous than other people's large ones, and with ""rilent unrivalled in extent, in convenience, and in situation, itrtie i toor eover with capital that will always command the best hu ge in hi the m ar k et at the most favourable prices , we can chal - AntG t the whole trading community to produce goo ds at the p rice Rho - a ' the quality which we are selling hourly.

[PRICE SD. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. MANSION-HOUSE. A man was brought up in the custody of Jarvis, one of the city officers, charged by the superintendent of police, acting in a diststit district, with baying stolen two horses. A brother of the prisoner had been apprehended about two,yeers ego :or horse stealing. convicted, and en tercet? to twelve months' imprisonment. The vi c e wee rot corrected by the punishment. The moment the d e . liuquent was liberated from cenfinernent he recommenced operations, and in a short time' the robbery cf seven hors, s was traced to him and two others of the family, and at the present time the father and two brothers the prisoner are awaiting their trial, which is to take place at the next ass-zes upon charges of a similar kind. The Prisener's father is a small farmer who has lived in repute fir several years within a few miles of the place in which the la :t offence attributed to the prisoner was committed. His house is situated in a retired spot, pe culiarly calculated, according to the description given by the officer, for concealment and eseape—dhere being se veral narrow and unfrequented roads and lanes in the immediate neighbourhood. The son who 'has al ready suffered the penalty of the law resided at some considerable distance from the spot in which his father and brothers' lived, and was not, to all ap pearances, by any means- in the habit' of, asso ciating with them—a circumstance attributed to the - • loss of character to which hi s notor i ous habits subjected ! him. The extraordinary di sa pp earance of horses from stables at various places within a f e W m il es of the farm• house, however, caused' a polic e i nvest i gat i on, the result of which was the apprehension of th e mem b ers o f the family who are now in prison, and the pursuit of the' man at the bar, who was on Monday traced by Jarvis, the City officer, to Mint-street, id the Borough. Sir PETER LAURIE—It is very seldom that we bear of a regularly organized system of robbery like this. The' father's character, no doubt; was serviceable to the ob.. ject of the plunderers. The superintendent—He was never suspected; for 'there appeared to be no intercourse between him and his Convicted son. We can trace ten stolen horses to one of the sons, and in the house of the father I found the saddles and bridles of some of them. We have no doubt that they all acted together, and it is rather surprising that some of them have actually driven several of the horses, before they sold them, close to the very neigh bourhoods in which they had broken open the stables. I apply to the London magistrate to remand the prisoner till to .morrow, and to direct that he be delivered up to me to be conveyed before the county magistrate, who will commit him for trial, together with his father and brothers. Sir PETER LAURIE then directed that the prisoner should be given up to the superintendent. .111ARYLEBONE. Henry Williams, aged 16, was placed at the bar before Mr. Long, for re-examination, charged with having stolen a quantity of silver plate, the property of Mr.' Walter Buchanan, a county magistrate, residing at No. 2, Sussex-place, Hyde-park-gardens. The particulars of the previous examination have al ready appeared, and it will be remembered that the but ler, during his temporary absence from the bottom of the house, heard a rattling of plate in the pantry, and, on going down, saw the prisoner make a speedy egress by the area steps, and thence into the street. The butler fol lowed him, crying "Stop thief," and he was speedily captured, after having, in the course of his progress, dropped a soup ladle and a fish slice, both of which ar ticles were picked up prior to the prisoner being stop ped. It was further shown that the butler took the prisoner back to the house, and then sent for a policeman, when the prisoner was searched, and in his pockets were found seven tablespoons, three saltcellars, four salt spoons, and a butter knife, all of which belonged to Mr. Buchanan. When the prisoner was given in charge he begged for mercy, alleging that he bad never before gone done an area, or committed a robbery in any other way. The remand took place in consequence of the police being of opinion that they should be able to sub stantiate other charges of robbery against the prisoner. This was not done, and the prisoner was sent for trial for the robbery at Mr. Buchanan's. WORSHIP-STREET. Henry Barnett Wheeler, a young man of gentleman like appearance, residing in Nelson-place, Grange-road, Dalston, was brought before Mr. Arnold in the custody of Holland, the warrant officer, charged with threatening the life of his wife, and with having practised towards her a long-continund series of cruelty and ill-treatment. Mr. ARNOLD said, that it was a moat distressing case ; but, as it was manifestly impossible for any wo man to live happily with a man who conducted himself with such systematic end outrageous violence towards her, he would. suggest, as the most advisable course for both parties, that they should consult some Mutual friends, with a view to effect an arrangement for their permant separation. The cpmpleinant, with much earnestness, at once ac ceded to the proposal. to Which, however, the defendant sepreasskithe_etrongeet reeugnance, _and said. that, lie Ifid no wish to areft'emioe wife, he would leave the matter in the hands of the magikrute. nith an intima tion chat if he were called upon to find bail, he had no means of procuring it. Mr. ARNOLD expressed his intention to suspend the warrant for a week, and asked the eem pi e in au t if sh e consi(iered her husband's own recognizance would be a filch nt security for his peaceable behaviour in the ru. The! complainant (emphatically)—Most decidedly not. I have already suffered so much at the hands of that man, that I feel toy life to be in daily and hourly danger from his violence. Mr. ARNOLD said that, in that case, he should require the defendant to put in substantial bail for his ap pearance next week, and suspend the warrant for that period. The defendant repeated that he was utterly unable to procure the requisite bail, and he was accordingly re moved in the custody of the gaoler. SOUTHWARK. Patrick Cullen was placed at the bar, charged with being engaged in an assault upon the police, during which 121 M, and 141 of the same division, were so seriously injured that they were for some time consi dered in danger of losing their lives. It appeared that on the evening of the 6th instant a fight took place in Tooley-street among some Irishmen after the funeral of a deceased countryman. The two policemen being near the spot interferred to prevent the fight, and having succeeded in sepdrating the com batants, the latter fell upon them and began to kick and beat them. The policemen then attempted to take their assailants into custody, when several of their associates joined in the rescue, during which the former were as sailed with brickbats and stones. One of the rioters seized the staff from policeman 121, and beat him over the head with it until he rendered him insensible, and his brother constable. 141 M, was about the same time struck with a stone on the head with such violence as to lay him prostrate on the ground, in which condition they were both obliged to be carried to the hospital, where on examination it was discovered that each was labouring under concussion of the brain, besides extensive lacera tion of the scalp. Their assailants all escaped at the time, but five of them have been since taken into custody and committed for trial. The prisoner had abandoned his usual haunts, and was only apprended the previous day, and he was now placed at the bar. The evidence of three witnesses was taken, each cf them proving that they observed the prisoner as one of the ringleaders in the disturbance, and that they distinctly saw him throw the stone which struck policeman 141 on the head and knocked him down. The prisoner asserted that he was not present, and called a countryman of his own to s how that he was at home at the , time it was alleged he bad assaulted the police. The witness, however, failed in supporting the assertion, and the prisoner was committed. The policemen, although so severely injured, are pro gressing favourably, and were sufficiently recovered to be enabled to attend the examination. EXECUTION OF GEORGE CARNT FOR THE LAW SHALL MURDER. BURY ST. EDMUNDS, TUESDAY.—ThiS morning, at nine o'clock, George Carnt, who was tried and convicted at the last assizes for this county of the murder of Eliza beth Bainbridge, underwent the extreme penalty of the law, on the new drop erected on the top of the central archway, leading to the in t e rior of the prison. His unfortunate . victim, who was about thirty years of age, was the daughter of a hard working and respectable farmer at Lawshall. About nine or ten years ago she married the butler of a clergyman at Leawardstone, but after living with him for some time, and giving birth to a child, he deserted her, and enlisted in the Royal corps of Sappers and Miners, and for the last seven years they had not seen , each other. On her deser tion by her husband she continued to reside, with her child, at her father's, and conducted herself with the greatest propriety. The prisoner resided in the same village, and was considered a respectable agricultural labourer. For ten or twelve days previous to the mur der, which took place on the 20th of January last, the deceased bad been staying with her sister, a Mr& Payne, whose husband keeps the Harrow public-house at Law shall, where the prisoner had been lodging for about a . Week. ' Here they were frequently seen in close conver sation together, and on One occasion their conversation appeared to have been carried on in such an earnest tone as to lead to the impression that the prisoner bad made_ some improper proposal, which the deceased bad i e n . d s r g e. nantly refused. This The prisoner, it will be B ist u er ,, quently seen, denic d.

EQUITABLE FIRE OFFICE. Capital-500,0001. (Incorporated under 7 and 8 Vict., cap. 110.) The leading principles of this Office ars—Moderate and eqnitable Rates of Premium for each class of rist —Annual division of Profits. The difficulty of collecting the elements on which to proportion Cremium to risk in Insurance against Loss by Fire has been so great, that the rates at present charged are more the result of guess than calculation. It has been found by experience, that the total annual losses of the different Established Companies have not been proportionate to the amount of annual Premiums received by each. It is of the highest importance, both to the Insured and Insurers, that such an anomaly should cease, and an approximation to the true risk be made. To secure this object the Equitable Fire Insu rance Company is established. The true rate of Premium for Fire Insurance can only be ap ,froached through Classification and Average, which has not hitherto been sufficiently acted on, or systematically applied. Whatever be the nominal rate, the bonus or return periodically to the Insured will determine the true Premium equitably payable, as security against lots for so great a calamity as fire, and the Insurer is largely interested in this Question, and will consult his interest by supporting a system where, by a careful combination of Classifica tion and Average, the Premium will be proportioned to the risk. The Equitable Fire Office will, by a constant analysis of its own experience, fimm time to tin - e, adopt such rates of Premium as the nature of the risk may justify, and will decline to enter into arrange ments as,regards tariffs with other offices. With this view an annual investigation will be made into each class of risk, and a return of one moiety, or fifty per Cent. of the nett excess will he made to all classes of Insurers whose Policies have been in force for three years. Insurances against Loss by Fire are effected by this Company upon every description of Property on moderate terms. Farming Stock insured at 3s, per cent, without the Average Clause.

IPSWICH, APRIL 22. The market was thinly attended, owing to the very wet day. The supply of corn was unusually small, and the growers did not seem willing to submit to any reduction in the price of their wheat; the sale was very stow, and could only be pro ceeded with at a reduction of ls per quarter. A few samples of Malting barley appeared, but met a dull sale at last week's prices. PER QUARTER..! PER QUARTER.

Taylor and Bright's Cikular stites :—The holi days are interfering a good deal with business just now, and the transactions of the past week have been on a limited scale, with more disposition to give way in price than noticeable during the previous week. We have now fine genial weather, and vegetation has made a rapid start : the country looks well. The supply of farmers' wheat to-day was moderate, and mil lers were able to select best samples at some small reduction on last week's rates ; good 631bs red wheat was worth 38s per quarter, other qualities in proportion. The demand for barley has slackened a good deal ; the fine weather is against a con tinuance' of malting, and only choice samples are now saleable for this purpose ; there is also less demand for grinding quail. ties. Oats are scarce, and fetched our lull quotations. Beans quite as dear as last week. Nothing doing in peas. The lin seed market is quiet, with a moderate consumptive business — a gooa sale for cakes at the beginning of last week, which the fine weather rather checks. Nothing doing in rapeseed ; a fair sale for cakes at our currency. The following are the present prices of grain 8. IL t R.

Fine fresh wheats were in fair re quest at late rates, but inferior descriptions were easier to buy. Flour met with a very limited demand, and must be noted 6d per sack and barrel lower. Fine meal ing oats were saleable at full prices, but inferior qualities were difficult to move, except at a decline of id per 451bs. Oatmeal was more inquired for, and in the sales made, fully maintained its value. There were several buyers of barley for Wales in attendance, and, being extremely scarce, an advance of ld per 601bs was realised. Beans and peas were without change, either in value or demand. Indian corn met with little attention, and last Tuesday's prices were nut obtainable. CORK, APRIL 21. Barrels. Currency.

(Before Mr. Sergeant ADAMS, Assistant-Judge, and a Bench of Magistrates.) Samuel Hamment, aged 27, was indicted for having stolen 101. in gold from the person of John Thomas. Mr. Metcalfe appeared to defend the prisoner. As the details of this case appeared in our police re port, under the head of " Worship•street," a few days since, it will merely, upon the present occasion, be ne cessary that we should state such a portion of them as shall refresh the memory of our readers as to what the case is. The prisoner is a cabman; and the prosecutor, having arrived at Southampton on board the Bentinck India man, was there paid off, receiving 27/. in sovereigns and hall-sovereigns. From Southampton he journeyed to London by the South-Western Railway, and upon reach ing the Waterloo station he went to the Spread Eagle, in Gracechurch-street, where he took a cab, of which the prisoner was the driier. Upon placing his luggage on the cab he found that a favourite parrot had been left at the station, whereupon be gave directions, to be driven back there. Having regained the bird he desired the prisoner to drive him to Turner-square, Holton, where, on their arrival, he paid 73. 6d. as the fare, and out of good fellowship desired "to stand a glass of grog." The prisoner then drove him to several public-houses, at which they had grog. As they were leaving one of these houses the prisoner put two women into the cab with him, but, as he thought their object was to rob him, he " cap -siz-.7d"- theta -:out-iaraiirland-etestal Vie dief.'""Thhe drove on, and the prisoner " brought up" at some wine vaults in Horton. Here they had some more grog, the prosecutor standing treat; and as they were quitting this place the prisoner shitto d his badge to another man. and, having get into the cab with the prosecutor, called out to the man on the box to drive on. The prisoner took his seat at the "stern" of the cab, while the prose cutor was obliged to sit " tor'ard." After they had pro ceeded a little way the prisoner made a " lurch for'ard," and befote ho could be " righted" himself the prosecutor felt his hand on his waistcoat pocket, in which were 271., composed of sovereigns and half-sovereigns. When they " brought up" again at Hoxton •he felt in his pocket and found that 101. of the money had been taken from him. They both then got out, and the prisoner demanded the payment of a third fare; for, in addition to the first payment of 7s. 6d., he had been paid a second demand for fare of 10s. The third demand the prosecutor refused to comply with, and, a disturbance ensuing, the policeman, when he came up, took the num ber of the cab. The prosecutor stated that after he bad turned the women out he had counted his money and found it to be all right, but that on counting it after the cabman had made his " lurch" 101. of that money was gone. Eventually the prisoner was given into custody. Cross-examined by Mr. METCALFE—He was unable to say whether the money he had lost was in sovereigns or half-sovereigns. Ile should think that the money he had received at Southampton, which was all in gold, was paid in about one-third of halt-sovereigns, but be could not swear that in this 101. his loss had consisted even of one sovereign and the remainder in half sovereigns, or two half•sovereigns and the rest in so vereigns. Mr. METCALFE here submitted to the Court that upon the &claim of the judges, Mr. Justice Erle being the only dissentient, in " The Queen v. Bond," 4 Denison's Criminal Cases, there was an end of the case, for there it had been held that it was necessary for the prosecutor to swear to the identical value of the coin lost. In " The Queen v. Bond" that necessity had not been com plied with, and therefore the judges had ruled that the indictment could not be sustained. The Learned JUDGE said he should like to seo the case. If his recollection served him rightly, it had there been laid that the money stolen was described as of " every coin of the realm." Mr. METCALFE said that was so, and that the money which had been stolen had amounted to 2001. or 3001., or even a larger sum, but the prosecutors upon the trial had been unable to swear specifically what coin the money lost consisted of, and, therefore, the judges sitting on the " reserved eases" had hold that such a description being necessary the indictment could not be sustained. The Learned JUDGE—Was he to understand the Learned Counsel to say that " The Queen v. Bond" was " all fours" with the present case? Mr. METCALFE—Certainly; ,and so strong was the opinion of the Court as to the necessity of proof in this particular that the only dissentient on the bench was Mr. Justice Erie. The prosecutor then, in answer to questions from the Court, said that however much he had gone to " leeward" in this business, still he should be sorry to swear wrongly, and he bad no hesitation in stating that he could not swear quite positively whether his loss con sisted of sovereigns or half•sovereigns alone, or whether it consisted of a certain number of sovereigns and a cer tain number of half-sovereigns, or whether one sovereign and the remainder in half-sovereigns, or whether it con sisted of any given number of one coin or the other. The Learned JUDGE said it was quite clear the prose cutor intended to speak the truth, and his opinion indivi dually was, that this technical objection, however strongly upheld by the majority of the judges of the su perior court, was altogether unworthy of the year 1851. Mr. O'BRIEN said that Lord Campbell, who had been one of the judges when the decision of " The Queen v. Bond" had been given, appeared to have entered into the feelings of the Learned Judge as to the impropriety of such law being retained, for his Lordship had subse quently introduced a Bill into the House of Lords with 9, view #o the amendment of the law in that respect. The Learned JUDGE said he regretted that such a case as this should arrive at such a termination. He must nevertheless be 'governed by the decision of the superior court, and he was therefore bound to tell the jury that they must acquit the prisoner. of Acquittal. The jury accordingly r eturned aTe tat Captain HANSLER co uld not but as this..at it was should be great pity that justice in such a case think defeated by such a technicality. Mr. METCALFE could assure the Court that he did not rest his case alone on the technical objection, for he had a most complete answer to the case which had been made out by the prosecutor. Tho Leaned JUDGE sincerely hoped that Lord Camp bell would successfully carry his Bill for amendment in these cases • The prosecutor then applied for his expenses, saying that in consequence of being compelled to remein in London for this prosecution, he had been unable to join the Singapore, on board of which vessel he had obtained en appointment. The Learned JUDGE said that all the costs the law would allow him he should have. MARRIAGE IN Man LIFE.---The approaching nuptials of Captain the Hon. C. H.
