THAME,S.

Jamu Wilhaw, a lad, wee charged before Mr. Partridge
with having stolen from the shop of Mr. Aubrey, chemist,
High-street, Poplar. a till contaieing 61.
Mrs. Aubrey stated that about 3 o'clock the previous
afternoois she left the shop for a few minutes, and oo
bar return to the shop she saw the priaouer leaving it.
After the prisoner was goal she found that the till had
keen stoles.

Mr. Partridge—Wm there any money in it
Witness—Yes, sir, there was above 61. in it.

Jobs Brewer, s youth, said that be found the till is a
garden in North-street. He knew that it belonged to Mr.
Aubrey, se he saw a boy come out of the shop with the till.
At the same time there were three other bore on the oppo-
site side of the street. When the prisoner came out of the
shop he joined the other two, sod they all went away
together.
The prisoner was sent for EL: months to the House of Cor•

prisoner booms very violent, and give him a violent blow.
He was assisted by the other prisoners. The dietarbeece

ALARM OF FIRE AT THE ADELPRI THEATER.—
Betweeo eight and nine Mat night groat ooesteroatioe was
ocossioued in the Strand by • report that the Adelphi
Theatre was on fire. On inquiry at the stage-door it was
ascertained that towards the conclusion of the perform.
once of A /roman of Busi mess, the cry of "Fire" was
raised, and • majority of the audience leaving their seats
beat a hasty retreat. la the meantime an iotimatiou of
the occurrence reached the several fire-establialimente in
the metropolis, and in • brief space • number of engines
arrived. It appeared, however, that on the alarm being
given, the fireman belonging to the theatre went the
satire round of the building to discover the cane of the
disturbance. The theatre itself was found to be quite
safe, but soave smoke from an adjoining house in Heath-
cock-court bad entered the back part of the pit.
The whole of the company, including the mechanical
portion of the establishment, appeared before the curtain
to give confidence to those who retained their seats, and
in lees that half an hour the entertainments were pro-
needed with.

ALARMING FIB. LIVEEPOOL—DERTIVCTION
Or • FIJIALI PINITIIMART.—LIVELPOOL, FAIDAY.—A
fire of • most alarming nature occurred this morning which
has unfortunately resulted in the entire destructioa of the
reformatory institutMa for females, called " The Home,"
situated in Mason-street, Edge-bill. It appears that shout
half-past 4 a.m. one of the inmates perceive! • strong
smell of fire, and haviog at owe given the alarm, •
massager was despatched to the fire engine slat ions
in Olive-street, Presoothstreet, sad Hatton-gardeo. Half
an hour nearly elapsed after the different engines
had reached the scene of fire before thy hose could
be brought to play on the building, owing to • scarcity of
water in the mains, and by the time the flames were sub-
dued the building was completely gutted. The loss a esti.
mated at about 2,0004, and this is covered by insuraooes in
the Royal and Guardian Offices. Although there were
*boat 40 inmates of the Home in bed at the tiros the fire
broke out, ammo( them were injured. The fire was caused
by the overheating of • stove in the laundry, which set
fire to tome elothes.

A Viuroz RAI. Brayr. —About ten o clock
yesterday morning • fire broke out in the village of Billing-
ham, near Tattershall. Leicestershire, which led to the
destruction of • great number of booms and cottages, •
Primitive Methodist chapel. • number of farm buildings, •
great deal of agrieultural produce, seven' pip, and otbet
property. The greater part of the inhabitants were in the
harvest field when the alarm was given add there was thus
• considerable lose of time before adequate assistance
could be obtained. When it arrived the perish regime wad
brought out, but it was of comparatively little use is oas.
sequence of the difficulty of obtaining • sufficient supply of
water. Nearly • hundred persons are deprived of their
boors by this desolaums. They bay, been accommodated
with temporary Wallop in the village schoolroom, but
their 'Wrenns must W very great for some time, as they
have lost their little all. It is to be hoped that Ilthey
gge wig
be promptly taken to afford them relief.

SFICIDZ OF A NIOLICFCD WIFL—Tbe Liverpool
coroaer held an hiquiry yasterdey into the death of Bridget
Alamein, the wife of &cabinetmaker, renders in Poplar-hum,
who destroyed herself by hanging on Thursday &Borneo&
About eightme yeah ago Alamein deserted his wife, and con-
sorted with another woman by whom he bas four children.
His wife was so affected by this desertion that thobgli she
worked hard for many years, sod tried to get a living, hat
mind ultimately gave way. A abort time ago be returned

threatened to leave her antic. He used to remark that the
WOllllll be had left was "a silver cup compered with bee"
(tbe wife), and taunted her so much at burrs that she again
fell into a desponding state of mind, and at With com-
mitted suicide by lumen Ilene( from • honk in the sailing
of her bedroom. The jury returned a verdict that the de-

COTTON.—Ltrittuvot., &Pr. 9.—Tb• cottes market
has been heavily depressed by rumours from New York of
approaching peace, and the unsettled state of the money
market. The transactions have been limited, and almo;t
entirely confined te the supply of the immediate wants
the trade and exporters, sod though during the last tan
days more disposition on the part of buyers was evident
to take advantage of the reduction in prices, the
week closed irregularly with a decline of about 1,!.
to 2d. per lb. In American there has been relatively a Air
amount of business, chiefly for export ; but quotations 1.. N
reduced from lid. to 2id. per lb. Foe Sea Island the de.
mend has been very limited at prices seminally without.
change. Brazil has been neglected, and has fallen IL to
lid. per lb. Egyptian has also declined about lid. per lb.
Smyrna has participated in the general decline. East Indis
descriptions have manifested great depression ; the demand
has been limited, mid arrival being large, the supply offer.
ins is superabundant. Fine cotton is Id. to lid. per 11,.
lower; but the inferior grades have suffered more
severely, while Soiode sod Bengal have changed hands at a
reduction of 2d. in value. China has been dell of sale and
quotations must be reduced id. to lid. per lb. Speculator,
have taken during the week 4,210 bales ; exporters, 7,01 U
bales ; and the trade 16,100 bales of all kinds. We have to
report a quiet market today. The sales are 3,000 bales, of
which 1,000 are for export and speculation. The following
are the official quotritione—Fair Orleans, 310. ; mid.
dling, 29id. ; fair Mobile, 31d. ; middling, 29d. ; fair Up.
lands, 301 d. ; middling, 25id.

COTTON GOODEL—Mascrtrarnt, Seri. 9.—Thia market
his been almost unprecerdeetedly fiat this moroing. Oo
Wednesday the yarn market began to show signs of im.
provement, and on Thursday, before it was known that the
Bank bad raised the rate of discount, some fair offers were
made for various descriptions of shippingyarns, but the ma
meat the action taken by the Bank became known be offers
were withdrawn. The trade hers appears to have been taken
entirely by surprise, and the market became latterly stag.
neat, and has increased in depression since. To-day it may
almost be said we have bad no market for export yarns.
All our merchants refrain from making often, preferring
to await further news from America before entering into
new contracts. In home trade yarns we have also had a
very depressed market. Prices are, so far either* is a change,
weaker even than on Tuesday. BilliOMS is almost at a
stand dill, and spinners speak openly of preparing to close
their mills in some cum and in others of returning to
short time, with a view to reducing pr...ductioo nearer to •
level with the demand. The cloth people were as much
taken by surprise by the advance io discounts es any other
clams in this market. Thinp were exceedingly flat before,
and the recent advance has apparently put the possibility
of selling more out of question than on Tuesday. The
cloth market is deseribed as very inactive. Very few
offers are made, and these at the lowest figures. In some
few quarters is this, u in the yarn market, then were
signs of returning confidence before the Bank news arrived,
bet it his now entirely disappeared. Them is now every
prospect of the production of cloth as well u yarn being
lessened. Manufacturers find it impossible to continue to
make without incurring ruinous loss, and we may look
forward to a great limitation of production. The stocks
are not very considerable ; there is no great ensure by
sellers ; and there is no approach to anything like a panic
feeling, but in the case of offers making there is no doubt
now that comparatively very low prices would be taken.

CORN.—Cum.xsroao, Scer. 9.—We had a fair ripply
of new wheat to-day, and to effect sale. Is. decline bad to be
submitted to, whits =kin cm to 414. • extra, 475. : red,

I:income Bert 9.—We have had • large supply of
wheat to-day, cod the cradle ruled dull at U. below lut
week's prices. Red, 40e. to 43.; white, 42a. to 465.;
grinding barley, 30s. to 3.2..
LIVIRPOOL, Mm. 9.—With only a small attendance of
buyers sod under the pressure of • very gloomy feeling
geoendly (caused chiefly by the high value of money) im-
porters have been free sellers today, cod we must quote
wheat about 3d. per rental and flour Cd. to 9d. per barrel
sad sack cheaper than on Friday last, with still only a
moderate demand at the reduction. ludiaa core is offered
freely, and notwithstaodieg its being already relatively
cheaper than any other article of fodder it is again lower,
and we have to cote • decline OD the week of Dearly le. par
quarter. Oats and Oatmeal the turn easier. Beane scarce,
and fully as dear. Peas and barley slow. Market &sue
very sickly.
