tim stature and starved appearance, more than 8 or 9 men
Of age. Her brnee, sa described by the overseer, were shirt-
ing through the skin, and altogether she promoted a maks-
choly picture of the eaves of hunger sad the want of food.
When she stood up in the witness-box and was questioned
by Mr. Cottinghant, her intellects seemed to be impaired
owing to the treatment she bad experienced, and her igno-
rance was so palpable that when asked her age she was un-
able to answer eke quetion, or even to tell how many fingers
she had upon emit Mad : and she ridded that she never went
to an place oworship, or was taught her prayers.—

street, Camberwell, deposed that on the 27th of January,
1848, she paid the prisoner 71. 15s. on account of Mr.
Fleming, his employer, for malt liquor suppli.li. The re-
ceipt then moaned was th. nap A. roottOOO.—itn. J. Free-
man, of Dulwich, said that on the 13th of September last she
paid eight shillings to one of the doormen of Mr. Fleming, who
had come with the ale.—Priscilla Brain "errant to Mr.
Borough, of Brixton, paid to one of the'draynten of Mr.
Fleming, on Sept. 12, 1848, Os., and got the receipt she then
handed in.—Xr. Henry Dance, a clerk in the service el Mr. I
Fleming, deposed that in Feb., 1847, he had the care of, and Ili
was in charge of Mr. Fleming's brewery, and it was his
duty at that time to pay over to the prisoner all moneys re- I
grind by him from the customers on the same or the follow- 4
Sig day. On the 26th of that month the wiener received
U. 18s. from Mr. Thomas, and this sum he handed to the
prisoner.—ln his crossrnaminatioa by Mr. Huddlsetone, the
witness said he made an entry of the transaction at the time
in a book, but which book was destroyed by fire. The
book wee one that was kept for such entries, and the
prisoner in acknowledgment, or as accounting for receiving ;
such sums, placed his signature at the bottom. The receipt for
the money was in his (witness's) writing. He had nothing
whatever to do with the de)-book.—W. Moon, one of the
dreymen in the service of Mr. Fiendagsaid it was his duty
to pay over to the prisoner all the moneys he received on his
master's aecount. Of these Mal he kept a regular amount
in • book which he carried about with him ; but this book
was destroyed on the night of the fire. Witness recollected
reerivintr, on the 13th of September bat, lle. from Mrs. Free-
man, of Dulwich, who had been celled, sad gave him the
receipt produeed. He also recollected receiving 9s. at Mr.
Hipbourn's on the 16th of September, both of which nuns
he handed over to the prisona.—Mr. W. H. Fleming, the
prosecutor, was the next witnells called, and his evident, was
taken et considerable length ; bat a great portion of it was
• some repetition of that which has already been before the
public. From his statement it appeared that it was the priss
nor's duty to have made entries of every transaction coaneeted
with the brewery in the day and cash books, and afterwards
to post them in the ledger. The day and cash books, which
were supposed to contain every transaction, were Warned
weekly, generally on the Monday et Tuesday, and the pri-
soner accounted feeandhanded over the balance. The
whole of the entries, however, appeared in the ledger, but
the effect of them not basing been made in the day or cash
book was the lase of their amount to the prosecutor. He,
Mr. Fleming, was enabled to swear that the sums mentioned
by the witnesses had not been accounted for by the prisoner,
or pal to him. From an inspection of the book of Moore,
the dramsan, before the fire, and comparing it with the cash
and day book, he was enabled to say that out of 11.165. 9d.,
the prisoner had only accounted for 17s. Od. appropeioting

MONEY MARKET.

FRIDAY ITINTfI.

The quietness of the market, accompanied with a
steady progressive improvement in the funds, in de-
flame and irrespective of adverse political occurrences
anywhere, is a matter of marvel even with the oldest
dealers in stocks. Consols were at one time to-day
881 buyers for money ; they left off 861 to 1 for
money and time. The influx of money into the stack
market for investment is in reality the solu-
tion of this neediness with progressive en-
hancement in values of public securities.
Whilst the prices of all commodities, raw and menu-
factored, are so low as to be represented by a meth
lees quantity of capital or circulation, the excess of
the latter, which has heretofore been abesebed u the
Indium for carrying on the ordinary badness of the
country, has become a real oppression to the hoidno/11
who have lived, and are in the habit of &keg. by he
employment, just as much as the mandrels= by his
broad cloth or calicoes. It is alt seams&
a remarkable feature that, amidst all the naval=
of the world political, the British hole Amid
alone maintain such an ascendant position. Reduced
Threes were 851 to f. Three-and-a-Quarter Oets.,

Bills, 38s. to 41s. premium. India Bondy Ms. to

Dutch stocks engaged some attention to-day, as
coming rather better and firm from Amsterdam. The
Fours improved to 691 to 701; the Two-and-a-Half
per Cents. to 451 to 64. Belgian, 71 to 3. Russian,
981 to 1001. Mexican were dull at 21 to 1. Bra-

The transactions in foreign exchange were not so
active as on last post day, but the quotations show no
material difference, except on Paris, which were
lower. The negotiations on Amsterdam were

13.11/ to 12 ; on Frankfort, 1211 to 122 ; on Paru,l
