belonging to Mr. Ittehard Morten, Denham. The wheat
was destroyed to the value of 1501. Mr. Power conducted
the prosecution. A great number of viitnesses were called,
chiefly to show that the prisoner, after being •apprehended
and accused, made very contradictory statements. Some
time previous to the tire he gave way to violent expressions
against Mr. Morten and other farmers for not providing
work to labourers, exclaiming that one or two tires

fendant. 'rids was an action to recover 3471. fur cer-
vices performed as local elicitor to a railway
company, called the Lincoln, Northampton, and Hull
Railway. The defendants are tradesmen at North-
ampton, and were previsional committee-men of the

The scheme shared the fate of many similar undertakings,
and the members of the provisional committee were called
on to pay 1001. towards defraying the expenses of the undtr-
takii.g. The defendants in the present action had fend

WESTERN CIRCUIT.—SALIsnette, Matted 7.
CROWN COURT.—BefOre Mr. Justice Wightnem,
STEALING FROM A LeTTER. REeEtvING STOLEN ,
000ne.—Reliben Waite and Thomas Hayward were placed
at the bar. The prisoner Waite was charged with at, sling a ,
101. note and a half sovereign from a poet letter, and the pri-
inner Hayward with having received the same, knowing ,
them to have been stolen.—Mr. Rogers and Mr. Poulden
conducted the prosecution, and Mr. Hodges d, fended the ,
prisoners.-1t appeared that the prisoner Waite was a clerk
in the Post-office art Chippenham. Tke Rev. Mr. Hold tch,
who resided at Coombecum, in the county of Somerset, hay
ing occasion to transmit 10 guineas by the post to the Rev. Mr.
Frampton, at Tetbury. in Gloucestershire, enclosed a 101. note
and also a half sovereign in a letter, and which was posted
by his servant at a post-office, at Gore Inn, in the parish of
Bishops Lideard. The usual course of business at the poet-
office wa• to send the letters which were put in at Gore Inn,
in the first instance, to Taunton, whence they were for.
warded to Chippenham, at which place they were sorted,
cud the letters fur Tetbury were put into a separate bag and
forwarded. The letter was posted on the I Ith Nov., and
ought to have arrived at Tetbury on the following day. As the
letterdid not arrive, inquiries were made and Mr. Holditch,
having taken the number of the note, was enabled to trace
it to the Great Western Railway station at Chippenham.
The clerk who received the note in the first instance, and
who gave gold for it, hail not kept the number, but he
handed it to another clerk, who immediately took the num-
ber. No further account was heard of the transaction until the
Dith Jan. following, when the prisoner, who was acting as a
sorter at the Chippenham post-office, was in a public-house
with a man of the name of Swain, in the employ of the
Great Western Railway Company, and asked him if any-
thing hail been heard of the 10/. note; Swain said " No," to
which the prisoner Waite replied that he had that note, and
gave Hayward (au ogler at the Angel Inn, the other
prisoner) two sovereigns for getting it changed. Swain
then said that he should inform the authorities, which he
afterwards did. The prisoners almost immediately afterwards
absconded, and they were afterwards found at Cirencester,
at the house of the prisoner Hay ward's brother, and when
found Hay ward bad ehay.J off his w hisl,ers and otherwise
disguised himself. On being apprehended Waite conlisai d
that he had taken the note, and had given it to Hayward to
get chugged at the station, and that he had givea him two
sovereigns for so doing.—The jury found both the prisoners
guilty; and they were therefore sentenced—Waite to be
transported for seven yearn, and Hayward to be imprisoned
for twelva months and to be kept to hard labour.

NORTHERN CIRCUIT.?damn. 6.
The bonnets of these assizes commenced this day. There
are 60 prisoner' for trial, although nearly the same number
were tried at the sessions lt•et w. eh. The offences generally,
however, are of a trifling description, the principal being
three poacher' charged with murder, at Raby, the seat of
his Grace the Duke of Cleveland, and a charge of an at.
tempt to commit an unnatural crime against an incumbent
of one of the city parishes, and • minor canon of' the
cathedral. There are 20 civil causes entered, three of which
are special juries. In allusion to the charge of murder,
Baron Alderson said, " There could be no doubt but that it
was the part of Christian heroism to sacrifice self for the
good of others; just as St. Paul observed, that ' if meat make
my brother to offend, I shall not eat meat so long as I live
and the Christian hero mi. ht say, if my game or my sport
offend my brother, I will have no more game so long as I
shall live.' Nevertheleis the offence was one which ought
to excite no sympathy on account of its being common, but
rather the reverse, in the strict sense of justice. If, there•
fore, they were satisfied that there we, an intention to kill,
or to do name grievous bodily harm, and death (mooed, it
would he their duty to find a bill even in the latter case.
Thin was nothing to reduce the offence to manslaughter,
for there •as no pretence of provocation having been given
by the deceast d. It was probable that this would turn out
to be what medical men called metastatis, and that death en-
sued from a cause which did not arise at first; but if they
were satisfied that the original injury was the primary cause
of the illness which resulted in death, the charge against the
Prisoners was maintainable."

POLICE.—yEaTERDAY.
GUILDIIALL.—Te B. FLEET-STREET REVOLUTION.-
J. Edwards, a lad 16 years old, and two young men
name,' IF. Spencer and E. Hammett, were charged with
a breach of the peace and resisting the police in Fleet-
street.—About hall-pest one o'clock yesterday afternoon
a crowd of about 700 individuals, half of them boys,
and with a large sprinkling of pickpockets and costermon-
gers, came from the west-end of the town through Temple-
bar and turned up Chancery-lane. smashing the lamps and
windows as they proceeded. They came back into Fleet-
street through Fetter-lane. As Spencer appeared to be the
leadir, the police captured him, and also the other two
prisoners upon their making an attempt at rescue. The
officers stated that Spencer carried a tall board with which
he broke windows on each side, to the great diversion of the
troop of little vagabonds, and of some of the foolish
people who walked quietly after them to see
what mischief they did. Some of these exclaimed, when
the policeman ventured to collar Spencer, "That is the right
one; he ought to have been taken long ago." The boy
Edwards threw two stones at the officer, when he was
instantly seized. Hammett cried out for a rescue, and began
flourishing a stick about, and then he was seized. The hand
then sheered off through Temple-bar again.—The prisoners
were searched at the station. Hammett, who said be was
supported by his father, who lived in Southampton-
street, had Is. 10d. in his pocket. The other prisoners had
no money or other property.—Edwards said he had no
home, and lived anyhow.—Speneer said he was a tailor
lodging in Deverell-street, New Kent-road, doing a little
work on his own account.—All the prisoners declared they
were Mace, nt of what they were charged with doing.—Mr.
Johuson committed Spencer to Bridew ell for seven
days, Edwards for 14 days, and Hammett for seven dace.
BOW -STREET.—MEN or LETTERS.—Andrew Green
and Samuel Green, father and son, were brought before
Mr. Henry for re-examination, charged with stealing the
sum of 13s. fid. from a scrvant-girl at a coffee-shop in Droll-
lane. The prisoners were ordered to be remanded on Satur-
day last, in consequence of the elder prisoner having men-
tioned the names of several respectable persons said' whom
he pretended he was connected s the proprietor of the Par-
liamentary Chronicle, a weekly publication, in order to
give the officers an opportunity of making inquiries into the
correctness of his representations, the result of which was
by no means satisfactory, several gentlemen toeing in atten-
dance to snake disclosures of a suspicious character against
the prisoner.—ln consequence of the elder prisoner having
said that he was occasionally employed in the gallery of the
House of Commons by Mr. Neilson, of the Times, that gen.
tlem m CROW forward to disclaim all knowledge of him.—
The prism,. r attempted to deny having ever mid he was in
the habit of atumdina the Houses of Parliament for any
morning paper.—Mr. Neilson, upon looking at the prisoner.
said he recollected, some years back, having seen the pri-
I goner in the gallery, and knowing be was not attached to
any public journal, he requested the messenger to put
him out, which he did, but he never had any dealings with
him, and as to the Parliamentary Chronicle, he believed it
had not been published for a great many years.—A gentle-
man came forward and said that the prisoner was in the
habit, for several years, of obtaining money from different
insurance entices toinsert their advertisements in his journal,
although it had not appeared for many years. He had ob-
tained Mx guineas from the Atlas Insurance Office to insert
their prospectus, but it never appeared; nor could a single
bookseller from whom he had obtained money, under the
same circumstances, say that their advertisements ever ap.
prared.—The prisoner was then charged with. obtaining
money under false pretences.—Mr. Thomas Johnson,
solicitor, of Lincoln's-inn fields, stated that the
elder prisoner came to him on Friday, representing
himself as Dr. Green, and mentioning the name of his late
father and Mr. Barry O'Meara, with whom he hat fre-
quently dined, and offered him orders for the Opera and other
theatres. Ile then gave his card, "3, Curzon-street, May-
fair,- and said that the sum of 161. 15s. CA. was due to him
by his father for the journal, and that he had been directed
by the executors to get a cheque from witness for the
amount. Witness had since seen his brother upon the sub-
ject, and they could find nothing about the journal since
1036, when two volumes were supplied by Mr. Norcroft,
the original proprietor. Oa Saturday he came again in the
evening and said that he was obliged to take up a bill for
3001, Which had been dishonoured, and that he was in the
habit of paying to his workmen 2501. per week during the
parliamentary session. Witness upon this represeutrion
gave him a disco a° the amount, bat also cashed
not only
it, and On Tuesday he discovered he had been Unposed upon.
The prisoner gave a stamped receipt, and said he would call
again with orders for the Opera and other [berme—Mr.
Burton, ironmonger, of Oxford-street, identified the prisoner
as being the same who some years since obtained goods from
him under false representations, at which time he drove up
in a handsome tilbury, and gave his address "Curzon-street,
Mayfair ;" but in a short time be was told, when demand
was made for the amount, that Dr. Green was dead.—Mr.
Natali, a bookseller, also identified the prisoaer, to whom he
was in the habit of paying five guineas yearly for the inser-
tion of advertisements in his Vairnal, which was not in

existence.—Mr. Henry told the young female who had been
robbed in Drury-lam, that the evidence did not press against
the younger prisoner, and he would discharge him upon the
Name recognisance to appear spin if :neceolary, but the
elder prisons r should be again remanded without hail for a
week, and then be committed on the two separate charges.—
After the deputy-bailiff of the county court at Gravesend
had come forward to say something to the disadvantage of the
prisoner, he was removed from the bar.
Tun MOB IN TRAFALGAR-SQL/AIM—Two young NMI,
named J. Turner and W. Allis, were placed at the b
charged with assembling with others for unlawful purposes
in 'f rafalgar.square, the former being in possession of a pistol
loaded with powder and ball, at the time.—Mr. Mayne, one
of the police commissioners. proved that in the diachargo of
his duty, with ssveral officers, he was obstructed by the pri-
soners, who conducted themselves in a very rude and disor-
derly manner although repeatedly remomtruteal with, in
clearing the mob from Trafalgursquare, and pointing out to
them the public notice posted up that the people should dis-
perse. 'They, however, exhibited much oh:limey, although
he had informed them the duty he had to perform, and who
he was. On being searahed at th.• station-home the pistol
produced was found upon Turner,with a powder flask, balls,
and wadding.--The prisoner Turner admitted having
spoken rudely, but deried having refused to move on as he
was desired; and he was in the habit of carrying
a pistol, being once stopped in the Fulham-fields,
where money had been demanded from him. Mr.
Henry ordered the master of Turner ant the father of
havingentered into reties that they should be ofent gaud be-
haviour for six months, they were discharged; hut having
pe
condcted themselves in a rude manner to the insctor
after they left the court they were fined lats. cad' or 14
days' imprisonment.
Asset LT crux A REPORTER.—Mr. Mathew Strong, a
reporter, meowed on the Electric Tekgraph, preferred ot
charge against the officers of the A division, by
for having struck him a severe blow on the head, during the
row on Monday last, in Trafalgar-square.—Mr. I llarkson
appeared for the defendants.—The circumstance took place
while the mob swelled to about 8,900 persons, and Inim the
evidence adduced, it not appearing that the officers had
singled out the complainant mnre than other persons who
refused to diseeise, the case was dismissed
MARLBOROUGH -STREET.—PULCAUTIONAItY MEA-
aunas.—Mr. Bingham, the sitting magistrate, remained on
Tuesday until 12 o'clock at night at this court, it is pre-
sinned in consequence of instructions from the llume-uffice.
The clerk, constables, and officers belonging to the court, I
were also kept on duty until the same hour. The functions
of this court were not, however, required to be culled into
action until the ordinary hour of busineas, as the police was
in sufficient force to repress all disposition to mischief and
disorder on the part of the crowd of boys and idlers who
were congregated in Trafalgar-square and the Haym rket.
The police have displayed extraordinary forbearance under
circumstances of great ill usage and provocation, many of
them having been severely kicked, beaten, and cut with
stones snatched frem the road, which unluckily in many
places in Pall-mall has just been newly macitedirrised. At
the Opera-house the pelting became so violent for a short
time as to frighten many ladies, and to cause their carriages
to be driven off with great expedition. The police have
naturally become greatly exasperated at the ill-treatment
they have experienced in doing their duty to protect the
public peace, and it is only the state of discipline
into which they have been brought that can restrain
them if they are further exposed to assault and abuse
from retaliating on their cowardly assailants. About three
or four additional charges only connected with the potty
disturbances in the Haymarket and elsewhere wire the te-
nth of Monday night's proceedinsrs.—One of the defendants,
a man from Norwood, named T. Dyilry, was charged by
police-constable D .59 with waving it handkerchief tied to a
stick, and crying out to a crowd of ab wt 1,000 men and
boys, " Come on, my boys; death or glory." The constable
laid hold of him, and received some very severe kicks; but
he was soon lodged in the station-house.—He was committed
for a month.— IV. Dickson and H. Alkyl were charged with
addressing a mob assembled near Apsley-home at a late
hour at night.—Dickson said be was only engaged in prayer,
as was his custom—They were both discharged.—The
officers connected with the court have received orders to re-
main on duty here to-night until 12 o'clock.
WESTMIESTER.—A NARROW &teem—Arms God-
dard and William Slater were finally examined, the
former charged with stealing, and the latter with filo-
piously receiving, a great number of trifling articles.—The
case was one of a very peculiar description, and took an un-
expected and extraordinary turn at its conclusion. At about
nine on the night of this '29th of February, Glynn, 91 V.
stopped the male prisoner in Chelsea with two bundles, and
inquired what they contained. The young man replied,
two gowns, belonging to his sister, who lived at Holywood-
lodge, Fulham-road. On examining the bundle., they
were, however, found to contain not only the gowes, hut
five :or six pounds of candles, a shirt, four small silk
handkerchiefs, some potatoes, onions, carrots, tea,
sugar, salt, and butter, and on prisoner's person
was found a bottle of sherry. Ile was detained
while the constable went to Maywood Lodge.—The female
prisoner admitted that her brother-in-law had been to see
her that night, but denied that she had given him anything
but the gowns. Iler boxes were searched, when a number
of candles, some pickles, and other trifling things were
found, and she was then conveyed to the station, on
her way to which she inquired of the constable whether he
knew what wag likely to become of her, adding that she
knew she had done wrong in takisig the things.—On the
prisoners being brought up ter re.esemlnation yesterday,
Mr. Elderton, the female's master, appeared reluctant to
prosecute, and observed that although it woe his impression
that the property produced had belonged to him, yet.from the
very nature of that property, he could not identify it. As re-
garded the shirt and scarf which had been left oft and were
valueless he really could not say but that they nigh' have
been given to the female by some portion of his family.—
The depositions of the several witnesses having been taken,
Mr. Broderip directed that the prisoners should be com-
mitted for trial, when Mr. Elderton, who had previously
expressed a wish to make an observation, said that there
were some very peculiar circumstances connected with tha
case, which he was most desirous of putting the magistrate
in possession of. The sister of the female prisoner and wife
of the male prisoner had been for a length of time very ill,
added to which the rotate prisoner had been for some months
out of work. To his (Mr. Eldi rton's) certain knowledge
the accused female, who was much attached to !her
sister, had forwarded for her me the wages of her
industry, and in a desire to alleviate the distress
of herself and husband had perhaps' been induced to do that
which she otherwise would not. She was a most excellent
servant, and had hitherto, he understood,borne an irreproach-
able character, and, taking into consideration the circum-
stance of her having been eight days in confinement, and
the penitence she now exhibited (the poor girl haying been
in tears during the whole of the examination), be prayed
the merciful consideration of the court in her behalf.—Two
gentlemen stepped forward and aided in the entreaty ; the
female accused had been in their service, and they had
always found her unimpeachably honest. They hoped the
magistrate would not ruin her propene for life by sending
her for trial. She was fully sensible of the error she bad
immediately. and eith would take her back into his service
—Two er
vi ry respectable-looking tradesmen,
who gave their names and addresses, bore testimony
to the high character the male prisoner had also borne. One
in whose employ he had been sometime ago, said he would
give him work immediately.—Mr. Elderton having very
kindly again joined in the entreaty, Mr. Broderip said that
under the peculiar circumstances, added to the fact that there
were persons willing at the moment to receive the prisoners
and find them immediate employment, he would accede to
the request. lie hoped that the position in which they had
placed themselves would serve as a warning to them for the
rest of their lives. They were much indebted to the kind-
ness of Mr. Elderton in withdrawing this proaecutinn, and
to the others who had so interested themselves in their be-
beingh prisoners were then discharged ; the female
so much affected that she could scarcely leave the
dock, and the male expressing his thanks (or the kindness
he had received.

government, and the earnest desire of co-operating
with the capitalists and commercial interests in as-
sisting commerce and restoring credit, have had a
beneficial influence. The chief causes of monetary
and commercial distrust arise at the moment here
from other continental disturbances. From Frankfort,
Hamburg, Amsterdam, Antwerp, and Madrid, let
alone Italy, the advices are all of the most dis-
couraging nature. And although forei...,,n as well as
home capital is flowing into the funds here, as the
point of greatest security, it is not the less true that
by the force of political events, and prospective anti-
cipations, the values of these securities are not only
depreciated, but liable to be depreciated more perhaps
from the continuous pressure upon the market of all
foreign stocks, the cons' quence of forced sales, with a
view to realise however in English funds as the best
security atter all, though yielding so much n lower
rate of interest. Th, se observations may serve to
explain the reason why, with such a tremendous fall
in foreign stocks, the decline in the funds has been
comparatively so unimportant, not so much so, however,
in respect of the depreciation of prices, as in the fact
that Consols arc always readily marketable at a price
to any extent, whereas foreign stocks are net saleable
except in a minimum proportion at any quotable
prices at all.
Consols opened at 811, but in ultimate result of the
regular market left off at 811 to 11, both for money
and the account. They were done after business
hours nearly 1 less, with an impression among the
dealers unfavourable to a rise. It is clear, however,
that any re-establishment of confidence in the Paris
Bourse must have a corresponding effect here. The
Bourse of that capital was opened for busi-
ness yesterday, and Three per Cent. Itentes,
answering to our Consols, were called 58, but left off
56. The fall, in view of circumstances, cannot be con-
sidered of importance, and if the government continue
to inspire confidence in the capitalist and commercial
classes, as hitherto all their measures have been cal-
culated to do, the value of French public securities
• cannot fail to recover. With the plurality of Ger-
man, Spanish, and other foreign stocks the case may
however be different, the reasons for which will be
shown on another occasion.
Reduced Threes were 811 to 1 ; Three-and-a-Quar-
ter per Cents., 824 to 1, being shut, but transferable

8 11-16 to 13-16. Exchequer Bills, 365. to 395. pre-
mium. India Bonds, 36. to Bs. premium.
Foreign seeurity s were still, in technical phrase, at
a discount. In fact, the dealings in these securities
are very much in the nature, in present circum-
stances, of the sort of transactions which the late
Mr. Rothschild characterised, in somewhat similar
circumstances, as dealing in burning coals, to be
passed as quickly as possiole to the next neighbour.
No intelligence, however favourable in the in-
dividual sense of the securities, has any effect.
Brssilian Bonds we re quoted 76 to 79 ;
Mexican, 14 to 1; Peruvian, 24 to 29; Equador,
21 to 1 ; Spanish Fives, 12 to ; the Threes,
23 to 1 ; Passives, 3 to 1 ; Portuguese, 16 to 18 ;
Dutch Two-and-a Half per Cents., 42 to 4 ; the Fetus,
70 to 3 • Itussian,9s to 100. Extensive speculations
have been: entered into in Spanish and Mexican since
last account, and the result under the present de-
pressed state of the market, is looked forward to with
much anxiety by the parties interested. One thing
is clear, and to which those concerned must have
made up their minds already, which is, that under
circumstances which have occurred since the French
revolution, foreign securities can hardly recover their
level for a period to come.
The failure was declared in the Stock Exchange
tirday of Mr. Evans, the late partner of Mr. Preece,
whose failure was reported last week. The causes of
his failure are reported to be owing to the adverse
fluctuations in Consols and Spanish stocks.
