Y'Ntsf4 hia essireet7e evert was crowded *eat to suffo-
cation. Mr. Clive was the sitting magistrate. Ns. Kennedy
surree‘wel in &sham of his bail, sad wee dead at the
lies, as was Kr. Archibald M'Niell, who was brought fram
the Westailaster Bridewell, when he bad bra confined,
his bell declining to continue their retegnintsees. Mr.
Jones, teethe 'prosecution, haring stated dr tarkaor in which
WNW bad given up part of the propeVor Mentioned on
Wedemday last, said with regard to- Mr. Kennedy, he had no
further evidence to offer. With regard to M'Niell, Serjeant
Mount deposed that when M'NieU informed him where the
property was, he also told him that he (M'Niell) had placed
the things there, and that his doing so was not known to
Mr. Kennedy. The various testimony previously given by
the shopkeeper to Miss Hemans, and by Elizabeth Upham,
which implicated M./Cell was repeated. In the course of
the examination of these witnesses, a letter was received by
M'Niell, and read, informing him that he would require
counsel for hie defence, and that a lady, whose name need
not be mentioned, would supply the funds. A letter also
was received by Mr. Clive, and handed to Mr. Hobler, giv-
ing Mr. Kennedy a very high character. Mr. M'Niell, on
being questioned by the magistrate, at first persisted in the
whole alibi previous statement, implicating Mr. Kennedy,
but on being pressed, admitted that his statement of deliver-
ing the chains to Mr. Kennedy on April 15, when Upham
brought them from the pawnbroker's, was incorrect. Mr.
Nobler having addressed the court on behalf of Mr. Kennedy,
Mr. Clive said that M'Niell must be committed. With re-
gard to Mr. Kennedy, he had never thought there were
more than one or two points ac-ainst him, viz., the statement
of the boy Upham, that M'Niell told Mr. Kennedy, when
they had words in the shop, to send back Mrs. Riley's
chains, but it was n w quite clear that he could not have
done so, as M'Niell himself now states that Mr. Kennedy
did not know where they were. This was a satis-
faction to him, and Mr. Kennedy must be dis-
charged. Mr. Kennedy, before leaving the bar, de-
-1 eland before God and man that he was innocent of the
foul charge made against him.—M'Niell exclaimed in a vio-
lent tone, " Oh, you infamous villain, how can you say so ?"
which he continued to repeat till he was taken out of the
court. —Mr. Kennedy was discharged and left the court
surrounded by his friends, who cordially congratulated him.
The depositions having been read over, and Miss Church
bound over to prosecute, M'Niell was committed to New-
gate to take his trial for the offence.
WANDSWORTH. EXTRAORDINAT CRAROE.
Thetrepoon, alias Master, alias Messleden, who has been so
often remanded on a charge of uttering base half-crowns, and
who was thought to have been implicated in the death of
Sarah Higgins, who was found drowned in the Thames, was
brought up for final examination. The inquiries of the
police respecting the latter and more serious accusation, have
ended, and have been successful in acquitting the prisoner
of it, but he was committed for trial for uttering base coin.
—Mr. Clive informed the prisoner that, with reference
to the graver charge, there was evidently no foundation
for it, and be went from that court free of any implication
in so serious a matter.

MONEY MARKET.

FE IDAT RYINIMO.

The transactions in the fund; were fewer and
more inconsiderable in amount than even on any of the
dullest days which have lately been seen. Consuls were
without a variation of price, except as betwixt buying and
selling at the rates respectively set forth for each. They
left off as before, 961 to / for money, and 961 to 1 for account.
Reduced Threes, 96/ to 1. Three-and-a-Quarter per Cents.,
981 to 1. The Bank broker took 6,0001. Three-and-a-
Quarter per Cents. at 981, for the Savings' Banks, and
8,0001. more for the Friendly Societies, besides 6001. Reduced
Threes for Government. Exchequer Bills were 17s. to 20s.
premium. India Bonds, 26e. to Zs. premiam. Bank Stock,
209 to 10. India Stock, 259 to 261. Long annuities,

Considerable activity prevailed in the foreign house, al-
though with much less excitement than yesterday. The
operations were chiefly in Spanish, which after some fluc-
tuations left off at 271 to 8 for the Five per Cents., and 39/
to 1 for the Threes. The former were the more favoured
object of speculation to-day, and improved in price accord-
ingly. Deferred were 171 to 1 ; Passive, 61 to 1. Portu-
guese advanced 1 per cent., being now quoted 46
to 8. Mexican reached 27 at one time, but closed
heavy at 26 to 1, on the report received by the
Great Western steamer from New York, that Santa Anna
had sailed from Havana with destination for the coast of
Mexico, and that the city and province of Vera Cruz had
declared against the government in his favour. Ifsuccessful,
it remains to be seen how he will deal with the late conver-
sion scheme and the new bonds. The hypothecation of the
tobacco revenue in favour of the bondholders was scarcely
worth the paper on which it was recited before, and may pro-
bably not obtain even the endorsement of Santa Anna. In
other foreign securities there was little doing. Brazilian
were 88 to 90. Ecuador 31 to 1. New Ginned* 201 to 1,
the Deferred, 31 to 1. Dutch Two-and-a-Half per Cents,
691 to 60, the Fours, 94/ to 6.
Foreign exchange was with scarcely any alteration from
last post day, excepting Amsterdam, the rates on which were
rather lower. The negotiations were, on Amsterdam 12.61
to 7 ; on Rotterdam 12.7/ to 1 ; on Antwerp, 26.6 to 71 , on
Hamburg, 13.121 to 13 ; on Frankfort 1211 to 1; on Paris
25.95 to 971, all at three months.
