both prisoners repeated the same statement that they had
before made to the officer, and the magistrate remanded them
to complete the investigation.
MARLBOROUGH•STREBT.—Roeneny Br A &tor-
Gracey, a shopenan, wascharged with robbing his
employers of plate, jewellery and other property of very con- '
siderable value.—Mr. C. Williams, of the late firm of Catch-

street, stated that the prisoner was employed by him as shop.
man for three weeks previous to the 14th of Sept. when he
left. Shortly afterwards a gold chain was moved; and, on
taking stock, it was discovered that property to a considerable
amount had been stolen. On Saturday last, in consequence
of information received, witness went to Brighton with a
sergeant of the detective police ; and the latter having gone
into the shop of Mr. Cochrane, a jeweller there, came out of
it with a ring which witness knew as part of the missing pro-
mty, in consequence of its having a private mark upon it.
The prisoner wax then given in charge. He acknowledged
the robbery, and said the property should be restored. Wit-
ness afterwards accompanied the officer to Fleet-lane (pri-
soner's lodgings), where a diamond ring and • gold watch.

tannia-gardens, Horton, where they found a gold watch, gold
bracelet, pencil-case, and other articles of jewellery and plate.
They also found stolen property at two other houses.—

eabsequently told witness where the property was to be found.,
Prisoner, who made no defence, was fully committed for
trial.
MARYLEBONE. Tile MIDDLESEX MAOISTRATEB
AND bin. ROBINSON. Mr. Robinson addressed the
sitting magistrate, setting forth that be was anxious 1
to communicate to his worship that a full inquiry
had, on the previous Saturday, been gone into in respect to
°retain unfounded allegations which lied been made against
him.—Mr. Broughton : All the information which we have
yet obtained as to the matter you speak of, has been made
known to me through the medium of a abort paragraph in
some of the newspapers. Mr. Fell (the chief clerk) has
written, by my directions, to know what really transpired,
and all I can now say is, that the case, so far as I am con-
cerned, stands over till Thursday next, when I hope it wail
be disposed of.—Mr. Robinson, after what the worthy
magistrate had said, did not attempt to enter into say
further particulars, and, bowing, retired.
MANSLAFOIITER.—T. Good was re-examined charged
with having, in a fight, caused the death of H. Burningtoa.
The parties were shopmen in the employ of greengrocers in
Portland-town. They quarrelled at a public-house, and
went out to fight near Primrose-hill, and, as alleged, the
prisoner, after the first round, inflicted a blow upon his oppo-
nent as he was in the act of rising to resume the contest,
when he fell and almost immediately afterwards expired.
Evidence wax now given to the effect that an inquest had
been held upon the body, and that a coroner's j ury had re-
turned a verdict of manslaughter.—The prisoner applied to
be liberated upon bail, but the magistrate said that be had
no power to grant his request, the coroner having issued his
warrant for committal; an application to a judge at cham-
bers might be made through his solicitor, should he deem
it necessary to adopt that course.
WEST td INST ER. —ROBBERY AT CHELSEA.—T. Eraser,
J. Chitty, and IF. Anderson, were re-examined, charged
with stealing a quantity of plate, jewellery, linen, sad
wearing apparel, from the residence of Mr. 8. Archbutt,
solicitor, King's-road, Chelsea.—During Mr. Archbutt's ab-
sence from town, on the sth of September, Ensor invited the
servant to take a walk with him, Dignum, • clerk, then is
Mr. Archbutt's service, being left alone in the house. The
next morning the property was missed, and Dignum given
in charge ; as there was not sufficient evidence to warrant his
further detention he was discharged, after a short remand.
He was subsequently convicted of fraud, end whilst in
Newgate voluntarily made a confession of the particulars of
the robbery to Mr. Archbutt. Ensor was taken into cus-
tody, and a pocket book belonging to Mr. Archbutt wasfound
in his possession ; tke other two prisoners, Chitty and An-
derson, were apprehended as having been concerned in the
robbery. The case against the two latter rested entirely
upon the statement of Dignum, who was put into the wit.
ness-box on the last examination, and who stated that jives
arranged amongst them by Ensor that he should take the
girl out, that Dignom should he left in charge of the house,
and that during her absence Chitty, Anderson, and another
should rob the place. As there was no evidence yesterday
that could be procured to confirm the unsupported state-
ment of Dignum against Chitty and Anderson, after some
conversation Mr. Archbutt withdrew the charge against
these two ; but as the pocket-book had been found on Ensor,
and the pawnbroker at Greenwich materially confirmed the
statement of Dignum, by declaring that Ensor was, to
the best of his belief, the man who pawned the
chain, the case was proceeded with against him.
There was also a second charge clearly made out against
Ensor for stealing • gold watch and diamond ring, both
missed between the 6th of August and beginning of Septem-
ber, from Mr. Arehbutt's dressing-room. Dignum and
Ensor were associates, and during the absence of Mr.
Archbutt, Bum' used to sleep repeatedly at the prosecutor's
residence at Chelsea, without his knowledge. Dignum swore
that he saw the watch in Ensor's hand, and a watchmaker
proved having bought it of the latter.—Ensor, who made no
defence, was fully committed on both charges.
LAMBETll.—lnuctr DISTILLING.—Martha IVillianes
was charged with being found in an illicit distillery and
working the still.—Mr. Sly, a supervisor of excise, deposed
that on Sunday morning he went to the house No. 11, Burt-
place, Old Kent-road. The door was opened by the prisoner.
Witness entered the house, and in the front parlour found a
still, which was very recently worked, as it was not cold at
the time. Upwards of 200 gallons of molasses wash wan
found in the course of fermentation. There were also on the
premises all the utensils used in a distillery, and the primate
acknowledged that she alone had worked the still.—The
prisoner said nothing, and was sentenced to pay a penalty of
301., or, in default, to stand committed to prison for three
months.
SOUTH WARR. 0 Bra IN ING HOPS UNDER. PAWN
Pagrarrera.—J. Chittenden, described as a hop factor was
charged with obtaining seven pockets of hops by 'false
pretences, from Mr. W. Collins, a hop merchant in the
Borough; and also with having forged an order, purporting
to be that of Mr. Thomas Haines, on a wharfinger at Pad-
dingtom,for the delivery of the hops from his warehouse.—
Mr. Collins stated that on the Bth of October the prisoner
called at his premises, and describing that he was in the I
hop trade, said that he wanted seven pockets of hope for
Messrs. Maims, of the Borough, the prisoner agreeing to
pay for them on delivery. The complainant handed him
• written order, directed to a wharfinger at Paddington, at
whose wharf thei bops were deposited, for the delivery of
seven ppoocekets to Messrs. Haines and Co. Witness had
sxesrtafzed that Messrs. Haines had given the prisoner no
authority to purchase hops on their account, and that he
had forged the order for their delivery from the wharf.—
Mr. T. Haines stated that the prisoner called upon him and
wooled him to purchase seven pockets of hops, but he only
one pocket, the prisoner saying that the hops were
ffstenassd saying property, and did not mention the name of Collins
dotal the transaction. A written order for the delivery of
lima pockets of hops purporting to be that of Messrs. Haines,
sad addressed to the wharflnger, was shown to witness, who
said the signature to the document was a forgery.—Dium,
carman, stated that he was employed by the prisoner to con-
vey the hops from the wharf at Paddington to the Brighton
terminus, and that in a few days afterwards the same
person ordered him to remove the hope from the
terminus to a warehouse.—Mr. Roberts, on the part
of the prisodtr, contended that the first charge—that of
obtaining the bops under false pretences, must fall
to the ground, inasmuch as the prisoner had been
entrusted with the hops, and had given a written undertak-
ing to the complainant that he would be responsible for the
payment of the money in the event of any disappointment as
to Muses. Haines. That with respect to the other more
serious charge, that of forging the order for the delivery of
the hops, the prisoner, it could not be denied, acted wrong,
but if • little time were given he would be prepared to pay
the complainant every shilling that he owed him for the
hope—Mr. Cottingham said he would not permit a charge
of so serious a nature to he compromised now that it was
brought under his notice ; that he was of opinion both fraud
and forgery were made out against the accused, whom, how-
ever, it would be necessary to remand in order to have the
evidence of one Important witness.—The prisoner was ac-
cordingly remanded.
THAMES. ILLEGAL Inrastaritaarr. —J. Barnett
was charged with assault. The plasocator did not appear.
—Police-eandahle 1811 H. stated that Ws prisoner was

given into custody on Saturday evening at • Shoreditch
terminus of the Eastern Counties Railway, by a man who
said he had been assaulted by him on board the Kent
steamer, and had two of hie teeth knocked out. The prisoner
bad been in custody since Saturday.—Barnett said the
person who gave him into custody was the 'armor. The
poisoner was crossing from the Kent to the Esesa shore, to
suet the train, when two men, one of whom was intoxi-
sated, pushed against his wife, who was seated on the after
part of the deck, and very much annoyed her. She was
again insulted, and he struck the man, and after travelling
upwards dux miles on the railway he was given into custody.
Mr. Yardley said the. prisoner was given into the custody o
a policeman some miles from the spot where the alleged
assault was committed. The policeman saw nothing of the
assault and heard nothing, except what the party charging
thought proper to relate, and upon that he took upon him-
self the responsibility of charging him at the station-house,
and bringing him before a magistrate. It wu very likely
the prisoner had told the truth, and if so the person accusing
him was se much to blame as the party accused. According
to his (the magistrate's) notions o the duty of the police,
the ormetahle had very much exceeded it In taking the pri-

MONEY MARKET.
MONDAY ETZNING.
The advice. generally from the country this morn-
ing were of so much more quiet, if not oliessial, a
complemion, as, with the absence of any sinirtersivest
here, or even of reports of any accredited character,
to have contributed to the greater steadiness of public
securities. From 811 money price, and 811 time
price, Consols advanced after some fluctuations
to 82 for money, and 821 for time. These were the
highest rates realised during the regular business

hours. They left off, however, not so good, at 811 to
.2 for money, and 814 to 2 for account. Later in the
day, after the close of the house, Consols again
recovered, and were done for account at 821. Reduced
Threes 84111 to I. Three-and-a-Quarter per Cents.,
811 to 2. Exchequer Bills, 19s. to 14s. discount.
India Bonds, 30s. to 265. discount. Long Annuities,
8 3-16 to 1. Bank Stock, 184 to 6.
In foreign 'tacks there has been little movement,
' and the quotations have scarcely been disturbed.
Dutch Two-and-a-Half per Cents. were called 53 to 4 ;
the Fours, 811 to 2i. Spanish Fives, 161 to 171; the
Threes, 261 to 71. Portuguese, 20 to 2. Mexican
151 to 161. New Granada, 17 to 18. Russian,
1041 to 51. Brazilian, New, 74 to 6.
It is not to be inferred that the public funds are at
all times the exact barometer by which the improved
state of credit and confidence is to be measured. They
are themselves often governed by circumstances of in-
trinsic import alone, and sometimes quite irrespective
of external causes. To have fairly reflected the gene-
rally more healthy tone of affairs since last week,
stocks, it may be thought, should have reached higher
prices; and from hence the conclusion that the ame•
lioration which has gradually succeeded late derange-
ments was more apparent than real ; that, in fact, it
did not repose on a solid basis. Now, there may be,
as doubtless there is, much monetary and industrial
tribulation in store, before the close of the present
year at least, and considering the tremendous
crisis in which the country has been in-
volved for so many months, down to the be-
ginning of last week, when it came to a head, it
would be wonderful if such should not be the case,
yet it may be rationally hoped that the worst has
been passed, and, thanks to the imminence of the
peril before which even obstinacy the most unyielding
and bigoted quailed, has been surmounted, with a
fearful wreck indeed of property and happiness, both
in the national and:individual sense.
That public securities have not recovered, or do
not, from long-continued depression, to the same
extent as might be expected, may be attributed to
those counteracting incidents and influences which
are to be found in the situation of the stock market
itself. There may be, as doubtless there are, consi-
derable amounts of stock in the hands of wealthy
dealers, purchased at low prices when panic was moat
abroad, which the holders are only waiting conve-
nient opportunities for selling, when the market is
easy and prices such as to afford the desired return of
profit on the speculation. Other dealers and specu-
lators are aware of the fact, and the quarters where
such stocks are lodged for the occasion, and as their
interest also consists in buying low, their tact is exer-
cised to keep prices down until their turn is served.
The speculators for the fall, or bear party, whose
business is only with time bargains, and net with any
view of really delivering and taking the commodity,
operate with the greater confidence by sales, for de-
pressing the market, upon the knowledge that the
supplies of stock so really waiting for sale, and over-
hanging the market, would be sufficient to prevent
any, to them, damaging rise in prices for some time to
come.

There is the state of the account also which mate-
rially acts upon prices one way or the other. Again,
the transactions in " options, that is, giving money
for the " put" or " call' of stock for specified periods,
which is carried on to an enormous amount, have per-
haps a more marked influence still in deciding the
turn of the market, and the direction of prices. Thus,
it will be better understood by the public how in
many cases the stocks may be affected without re-
ference to external causes, or the general aspect of
political, money, or commercial affairs.
Money has been more easy to-day, both in the dis-
count market and on the Stock Exchange. For short
periods it might be obtained on proper securities by
parties of credit at 5 per cent. The rates charged for
discounts continue, however, too wide and various for
anything like exact quotations.

We have the report late in the day of the stoppage
of Messrs. Coates and Co., of this city, respectable
merchants in the American trade. It is understood
that the liabilities will be heavy, and it may be feared
the losses will chiefly fall upon the manufacturing
districts of the north, u the house was mostly in the
dry goods trade.
It is reported in quarters likely to be well-informed
that the Caledonian Railway Company have obtained,
a loan of 200,0004 from one of- the great Scotch
banks, paying for it at the rate of 10 per cent. yearly
interest. If the fact be as stated, for it seems almost'
incredible, because so contrary to the letter as well as
the spirit of railway acts in general, it would appear
to be through some powers contained in their own
particular act that, without any special infraction of
its provisions, such a financial operation could be
carried through by the company. It is probable, and
indeed so reported, that the loan is but for a short
date, say for a year certain.
In a communication from Salisbury, dated on
Saturday, the following particulars are given respect-
ing the state of that place and neighbourhood, as con-
nected with and growing out of the failure of the
banks of Messrs. Brodie and Co. :

'Phis being one of the market day. in this ety busies.* appeared to

There is scarcely a merchant, tradesman, farmer, cottager, or retailer
in Salisbury, or *needing the market, but who have either their note.
or their ell invested in the bank ; more than had the tradesmen in the
city are extensive sufferers, from 1001. up to thoueands each. Should
the winding up prove u dentine/us as some fear, a vast number in

We learn from Newcastle that the Northumberland
and Durham District Bank, whose resources were
severely tested during the recent panic, is about to
double its capital. A communication has been
addressed to the shareholders, signed by Mr. C. W.
Bigge, of Linden, to the effect that a meeting is
shortly to be held, at which it will be proposed to
increase the number of 101. shares from 60,000 to
120,000; 51. per share have been paid on those now
in circulation, and a call to that amount is to be made
upon those which it is proposed to create. Existing
shareholders are of course to have the option of
taking the new shares at par.
Our private letters from Liverpool assure us that
there was a much better feeling on 'Change yesterday,
and the general opinion is that confidence is gradually
returning. It is thought here that the Royal Bank
will not be able to resume; it is the interest of the
shareholders to re-open, but it is very doubtful if the
100/. a share can be paid by several of them. Barton,
Irlam, and Higginson in their statement show 19a.
in the pound, but it is believed the estate will not
realise nearly so much.
