John Johnson and John Edwards, fashionably dressed
young men, were charged with ro►bing one lady of her
gold watch and others of their purses, at a consecration on
that morning at Brixton church.
Mr. Elliott Was there • policeman on duty at the
church ?

The Sezton—No, sir ; there was not.
Mr. Elliott—l think on such an occasion the police should
be present to protect the congregation from robberies. At
Stmathem 'limb, on Sunday last, on the occasion of a
charity sermon by the Bishop of Bombay, several robberies
were committed.

The prisoner Johnson, in reply to the charge, said that
he was proceeding to Brixton to visit a friend in the " soda
water line," when, seeing a crowd go into Brixton church,
he followed from mere curiosity, awl, when leaving, was
taken, though perfectly innocent of the charge imputed
to him.

The other prisoner declared his innocence.
Both prisoners were remanded to a Altura day.

WANDSWORTH.
John Morn, aged 20, was charged with deserting from
her Majesty's ship Inflexible, now lying off Lisbon.
Police-constable Doody, 93 V, stated that from informa-
tion he received from the Police Gazette of the desertion of
the prisoner, and knowing that his friends resided in
Wandsworth-place, he went in search of him, and found
him walking on Wandsworth-common. He asked if his
name was not John Hearn, and he said it was not, but
John Williams. He then told him he had a warrant for
him for deserting from the Inflexible, one of her Majesty's
ships, on the 27th of August last, add he must take him to
the poliee.etation. On the way there he said he might as
well tell him the truth, and he did desert from that ship.
Mr. Pa ter said he should send the prisoner to the
Tender which lay off the Tower, where the Admiralty
would deal with the case.

DETENTION OF A BRITISH SUBJECT IN
ITALY.

We yesterday (says the Manchester Guardian of
Wednesday) learned another instance of the way in which
British travellers are stopped, without any known cause,
by the Austrian authorities, in Italy; which ease also fur-
nishes another satisfactory illustration of the promptitude
with which such matters are taken up by the present go-'
vernment of this country. Mr. A. S. Sichel, a German
merchant long resident in Manchester, where all his chil-
dren have been born, has a son, Mr. Ferdinand Sichel, now
travelling in Italy on business. For many days no tidings
were heard of him, and the family were in a state of the
greatest anxiety fir their rel.., vs, when, on Monday
morning last, they received a letter from him announcing
the fact that he had been for ten days the prisoner
of the Austrian authorities in Milan, haring been
arrested at a frontier town (Pavia it is believed)
of Lombardy. He was travelling from Genoa to Milan,
and on arriving at the frontier town, he was as usual, re-
quired to produce his passport. Thishe did ; and was then
told, that he would not be allowed to proceed. He was
taken into custody, conveyed under escort to Milan, and
there lodged in one of the prisons. Being well known to
many persona In that city, including two of the bankers,
he naturally sought to communicate, either personally or
by letter, with some of his friends there, so that his situa-
tion might be made known to his family, and the requisite
, efforts made to obtain his release. But he was at ones per-
emptorily told that he would not be permitted to see any
' one, to write, or otherwise communicate his situation to any
one outside his prison. During nine days this prohibition
was strictly maintained ; but It seems that, is some way,
the British consul at Venice, having heard of his
incarceration, interfered with each effect on his behalf,
as to obtain a most reluctant consent on the part of
the Austrian authorities to allow Mr. F. Sichel to write to
his father; but only on condition that he should do this in
the presence and under the surveillance of a police director,
who not only read all that was written, but actually center-
signed the letter. It was this letter—dated, we believe,
on Wednesday last, the 20th instant—that reached his
family on Monday morning last. Mr. Sichel lost no time
in procuring • few letters of introduction to influential
members of parliament; and sent another son with these
and the original letter from Milan, by the 11.33 cm. traim
to London, with instructions to see Lord John Russell,
Lord Clarendon, as secretary of state fur foreign affairs,
and other influential persons. Mr. Sichel was not a little
surprised and delighted, at receiving from his son in Lon-
don the same evening, about half-past ten o'clock, at his
residence, distant nearly four mils* from Manchester, and a
mile and a half from Stockport, the following telegraphic

Have seen Lord Clarendon. Courier goes to-morrow to
Vienna. Gave immediately letter to Austrian minister for
to-morrow."

The telegraphic message else states that Mr. Sichel, jun.,
had seen Lord John Russell and several members of parlia-
ment on the subject. Here, then, owing to a combination
of ministerial accessibility, spirit, and promptitude, with
the wondrously swift communication of the electric wires,
a gentleman who receives in the north of England, nearly
190 miles distant from its metropolis, the tidings of ha
eon's incarceration in • foreign land, is enabled, before
retiring to rest the same night, to know and feel that
every representation or remonstrance which the case may
require is to be made on the subject by our repre-
sentative at Vienna. And it is there, and there only, that
any communication can have any force or weight. Mr. F.
Sichel, on his detention at Milan, named various wealthy
and respectable residents of that city to whom he was
well known, and who would be answerable :for his appear-
ance when required; brat all representations of this kind
were regarded u idle, and he was coolly told . that he
must remain in prison until orders respecting him should
have been received front Vienna. Mr. Sichel, of Man-
chester, has since received a telegraphic communication
from a friend in Genoa, to the effect that on Saturday
last, the 23d mut. hie son was still under detention at Milan.
We shall look with considerable interest to the dfnotiement
of this little drama of Austrian police officiousness and arbi-
trary power ; and the rather because if what we have heard
be true, there seems every reason to believe, that so far
from Mr. F. Sichel having incurred the suspicions et the
Austrian authorities by any indiscretion of a political
character, any expression of feeling in reference to Austrian
rule,—the result will show that he was occupied solely
with the business in which he was engaged. It is con-
jectured, and with • large amount of probability, that the
chief object of Mr. F. Sichel's visit to Milan being to re-
cover • debt, which had been outstanding some time,—the
debtor, apprised of his intention, and finding it inconvenient
to pay, found en alternative ready to his hands, in the no-
torious suspiciousness which characterises the Austrian
police officials, under the system of espionage and constraint
which now prevails in those parts of Italy under their rule.
It is easy to denounce a fereigner as a conspirator ; and it
will probably turn out that in this way the Austrian autho-
rities have themselves been duped into being instruments in
this notable scheme of " A new way to pay old debts."
Whatever be the cause which has led to the detention of
Mr. Sichel, however, we notice the fact (with the same chief
object with which it was communicated to us) to exhibit the
promptness with which our government have taken up the
case, and made it the subject of a communication to the Bri-
tish minister at Vienna.

INDIA AND CHINA MARKETS.
BOMBAY.

REPORT ON THI STATE! OP THE BOMBAY ?TABLETS FROM
THE 12TH MARCH TO THE 29TH MARCH, 18.53, INCLUSIVE.
Sian we wrote last the directors of the Bank of Bombay
have communicated to their shareholder the answer re-

etived from the East India Company on the subject of a
modification of their charter. The Court's decision was
unfavourable to any relaxation of the restriction, now im-
posed; but they give permission to advance apes the
security of railway shares, and do not object to an tunas*
in the amount of government securities held by the bank.
The money market continues easy.
During the last fortnight but little business of any de-
scription has been transacted—the market has been dull
throughout, and the little business which was being dose
has been entirely put a stop to during the last few days, la
consequence of the simultaneous occurrence of the Easter
and Hooli holidays.
O;ey shirtings of 40 inches, and 5i at 711 b., are very
scare*, and in much demand. A remunerative price will
likely be maintained for these goods during the remainder
of the season ; a ready sale may likewise be met with for
goods of 7j to 81b., bat the heavier cloths are not in such
good request ; 40. inch goods are saleable at the price quoted
in our last repoet..

Grey Long Cloth remains without change.
Grey Madapollarns, particularly of the lighter qualities,
are in-good demand.
Grey T Cloths of 71b., and fine quality, are in good re-
quest, and have advanced in value 1 to 2 annaa per piece.
Grey Domestics remain as before.
Grey Twills.—The same remark applies.
Grey Jacconets of 40 inches, and saleable at rs. 1 3 to Is.
1 12, are in much request, bet very scarce in the market ;
goods of 45 inches remain without alteration.
Bleached Shirting remains without change in value.
Bleached Jacconet.—The lowest qualities .only are in-
quired for.
Bleached Mulls are in the same state as when our last
report was written.
Fancy Goods.—Ditaity and satin stripes an low in stook,

and in good request. Lappets and lappet-scarfs is last
reported.
'turkey Red Goods remain without alteration.
Tarns remain as before reported, with the exception of
20, 34. and 40 water, which have slightly advanced.
Orange Yarns have sold at 11 anon per lb.
Cotton.—Very few transactions have taken place in thiv
produce. From Broach, Jumbooeur, and Surat but iittle '
has some to hand ; the price quoted is rs. 103 to 105. From
Oomrawutty and Dhallera, the arrivals bare been free ; the
prices quoted are rs. 93 to n. 100 per caddy.
Exchange.—Considerable efforts were made to reduce
the rate to 2s. Old. on England, but the sale of goods
having been to small as to require few remittance*, the rate
has continued at 2s. Otd. to 2s. Oid. per rupee, at which
latter rate document bills have been sold. Oa Calcutta the
rate is re. 99 to 100 at 60 days' sight, and on China n. 7.20
to 221 per 100 dole.
Tonnage continues very scarce. All ships, immediately
on arrival, are taken up at 41. 10s. to Liverpool, and
41. is. 6d. per ton to London—the rates to China are rs. 20
to 22 per candy.
