At ON close of the puseedings, Mr. Holland, of Great
Tichbourne-street, ems lorwand mid maid—l wish to ask
your worship bow I au to mend outlast Mr. Lupberger,
for he has taken away my bmwmobeeper, who has robbed me
of some of my goods.

Mr. HeUmni—l only do that whisk many in the higher
Mveles of misty do, and 1 don'ts** why I should be thought
worse dims them Jar so doing.
Aldermis Ihniplury—But I have so doubt they suffer
M musk se tie the impropriety of their conduct.
Mr. TWA mu (pointing to Mr. Lamberger) is
a ragas sad a owl's& is this country, for I took him is
without a rag W Ills bask, and kept him from starving. He
lodged with mond I new IX/glider I ail not sale as he has
finalised to Wm fry life with a sword-stick that he gen-
re/Iz= Wm
Mnse ms* Mei.
phery—Very wall, then ; if you will bring
him up the Let time he repeats that throat with a sword
stick la hie possession, I'll punish him ; but at present I
ems oily bind him down to keep the pesos towards you.
With regard to Mr. Lunberger's robbing you of your mis-
tress, what are your respective ages?
Mr. Holland said the lady was 36 years of age and he was
nearly as old ; but Mr. Lamberger was only 24 years old.
Alderman Humpbery—l suppose the lady preferred the
younger man. Is she present?
Mary Hume here can,. forward and said she loft Mr.
Holland because he ill-treated her, and she bad to keep

Alderman HampherT—How can you do that ?

parliament.
Mr. Holland—Yes, sir. Sir John WTeggart allows her

Alderman Humphery.—And doss he know that you

Mary Hame.—l believe not.
Alderman Humphery—l suppose not, or he might per-

another. Are you living new with Mr. Lamberger ?
Mary Hume.—Yes, sir ; bat he did not take me away
from Mr. Holland. I left him voluntarily.
Alderman Humphery.—Well, Mr. Holland, I cannot
do anything to punish Mr. Lamberger for robbing you of
your mistress. At present he is bound over to keep the
pesos towards all parties. If you will keep a housekeeper,
you must take better care of her, or put up with the con-
sequences attending such immoral connexions.

WORSHIP-STREET.
Two persons, of very gentlemanlike appearanee, named
Richard Ball, father and son, who were described as mer-
cantile clerks, were charged with riotous conduct is the
streets, and usaulting the police in the execution of their
dut7. It had required tire constables to convey them to the
station.

The elder defendant said that in consequence of the den-
sity of the fog, he had been induced to indulge in wine to
rattier an imprudent extent, but he trusted that the magis-
trate would take a lenient view of the ease, as he had
occupied a highly respectable position in the City for nearly
forty years, and had never before misconducted himself.
Mr. Hammill said, that se far from furnishing an excuse
for such disgraceful conduct, be considered that the respecta-
ble station which they held in society was rather au aggra-
vation of the offence, and he should therefore sentence the
elder defendant to fourteen days' imprisonment, without the
imposition of • fine; but with regard to the other, as he
had evidently acted under the pernicious influence of his
(other, he should order him to pay two separate penalties
of 40s. for sseaulting the police, or be committed, in default,
for one month to the House of Correction.

WESTMINSTER.
John Rogers was charged with Musing his wife, who
bore undeniable proofs of the brutal illtreatateat she had
received.

Margaret Rogers, the wife, who evinced throughout a
remarkable desire toacreen the defendant, stated that be-
tween two and three that afternoon, he same tome drunk
and seked for money. She replied that she had none, upon
which he knocked her down and kicked het, and then
threw the dinner which she had prepared into :he street.
Mr. Simons, Inspector of the B division—Did not he
thrust his hand down your throat, and hurt youvery much ?

Complainant—Yes ; bat I only want Win held to keep the
poses.
Mr. Simons—She has got awls oa her arm where he bee
rut her with a half,. . .

The woman's arm being hared, presented the marks
alluded to, there being one more severe than the rest.
Complainant reluctantly adrritted that be bad been in the
habit of beating her in the most cruel manner for a great
length of time.
Mr. Simons said that from his knowledge of the defen-
dant and his habits, be should not be at all surprised to
find him placed at that bar for murder or manslaughter.
Defendant, who had conducted himself so badly by his
repeated interruptions that it had been found necessary to
remove him from the court while part of the ease was going
on, did not deny the charge, but he entered into a rambling
story about other matters concerning his wife, which she
denied.

Mr. iiroderip observed that be should commit the defen-
dant for six months to hard labour in the House of Correc-
tion, and further require him at the expiration of that time
to find bail for his good behaviour, for if that were not done
the end would be, from the statement ha had heard from
the inspector and the marks upon the poor woman, that
the defendant would probably end his career upon a scaf-
fold.

lUGH-STREET.

Alexandre Le Baigne, chocolate-maker, No. 13, Bath-
place, New-road, and William Griffiths, were charged with
having been concerned in an extensive robbery of plate,
jewellery, end money belonging to Miss Hausa Richardson,
of 60, Margaretetreet, Cavendish-square.
The proseentrix deposed to missing the property from •
drawer in her room, while she was at Ascot Ramp on
the 9th of June. It consisted of a diamond bracelet, some
rimy, and other articles of jewellery; a pun, containing
two 201. notes, three 101. notes, three 61. notes, and about
75 sovereigns; some spoons, forks, and other property. Her
servant (Martha Farmer) and Griffiths had soon afterwards
been taken into custody on suspicion, but had been
discharged.
Since then, however a quaatity of the stolen property
had been toned at Loll Baigne's house by the pollee. His
brother, Honore La Halos, a chocolate maker in Great
Portland-street, and the prisoner's employer, had also
found some of the plate and jewellery and a 201. note con-
cealed in a hole in his cellar, and covered by a brick. Both
his brother and Griffith., his fellow-workman, bad access to
the cellar. Three other of the notes had been presented at
the Bank of England, having previously been seat over to
Prance. Farmer, the servant, having deposed that
Griffiths had visited her on the day of the robbery, and
had been left alone while witness fetched some beer,
The prisemen were both committed fag trial.

PRODUCE MARKET.
The monthly circular of Messrs. H. W. Jewesbury and
Co. observes as follows :—" The dull tone which prevailed in
the foreign and oolonial produce markets as notiosd in our last
continued until within the last week, when although therelhas
been nothing like activity to report, yet a fair business has
been done at full prices, and the rates fur several articles
ere firmer, and have an upward tendency. The course of
events with regard to the Eastern question, and the posi-
tion this country must from present appearances occupy,
causes considerable restriction upon mercantile engage-
ments, particularly for the continent. The imports have
been but moderate, and the stocks of several loading arti-
cles show a reduction as compered with last year, the deli-
veries both for export and home use have continued good.
Dyes and dyeing materials have been in very limited de-
mand, with the exception of cochineal, which has lately
been more inquired for, and the late sales have gone off
with spirit at an advance upon previous rates. Lac dye and
saMower are both lower since our last. Indigo remains
Arm, but there is very little doing. The late accounts from
the continental produce markets report a want of activity
for most articles, rice being nearly the only one in which
business to any extent was doing. From the cotton manu-
facturing districts the reports notice a steady market as
regards priest, the present rate of production being equal to
the demand ; the mills are still closed in Preston, Wigan,
Burnley, and Bury, and there is at preeent but little hope
of any arrangement which will lead to the resumption of
business. In the woollen districts a very considerableim-
provement has taken place, chiefly however for the home
trade."

COTTON.—l.tvuurooL, Nov. 24.—The market has
again closed tamely without change in prices. The sales
have amounted to 8,000 bales, including 1,000 Americans
(1,000 (or export and a like quantit on speculation); 130
Pernamv and Maraubams,6ld. to aid. • 400 Bahia, 51d. to
6141. ; 250 Egyptian 61d. to Bd. ; and 200 Borst, 21d. to 4d.
per lb. Import during the week, 35,000 bales.
_ _

MANCRESTiIt, Nov. 24.—Generally speaking the market
remains in a state of inactivity, but contracts have been re-
newed in several cases where prices have been suitable to
the end of the year. Purchases from the home trade and
from exporters are alike limited in extant, and though not
inconsiderable in the aggregate, they still fall much
below the business doing a few months ago, and even so far
under the present diminished production as to leave prices
somewhat irregular and drooping. " Considerable stocks of
shirting, are held by the Preston masters," mays the circu-
lar of Messrs. John Ponder and Co., "and until they re-
sume breincee no great ateretion in priors ran be expected ;
had the full production (of the enure district), come upon
the market lately, prices must have ranged considerably
under to-day's rates, as the accounts from China are not such
as to lead us to expect an early resumption of shipments in
that market. Punting clear are not in good demand, and
calico printers' both in the hems and shipping trade, com-
plain much of the want of orders. With the accumulation
going on in these goods, particularly in lower qualities of
'2B inch, we expect lower plisse will be established. The
turnout at Burnley diminishes considerably %lie production
of 36-inch, 60 to 64 rued cloth, and 36-inch 72's maintain
their value from.producers having made good contracts in
August, which in some cases extend over December. In
male yarn, India quality, • lair business has been done,
principally in the medium and lower qualities. The better
class of No. 46's is scarce, and comparatively dear."

WOOLS.—BitADVORD, Nov. 24.—The smell arrival
trent the country, and the prime there demanded, prevent
any new parchmes for this market: the eel., effected are
still limited. In noils and braes there is more inquiry,
and the supply on hand and making very limited.—Brad-
ford Observer.

MANUFACTURES.—Bastoroan, Nov. 24.—Yarns:
The settlement of the dispute with the weavers in the
Burnley district, who resume work on Monday next for
four days per week, will somewhat improve the demand for
spools, and as the cost to produce yarns has been on the in-
crease, it is not improbable higher prices will be sought for
December contracts. Pieces : The thoroughly seas'nable
month is favourable for stuffs, and there is an improvement
in the warehouses. Is grey goods there is also more con-
fidence, and somewhat more doisg, and the opinion is very
strong that goods have seen the lowest price —Bradford
Obiervir.

CORN.—Butmmou.tx, Nov. 11.—M this iay's mar-
ket, there wu an increased supply, and on the sales made,
the tarn was in f of the buyer; but we do not alter
our quotations. Barley Is. to 2a, per quarter lower. Oats
unaltered. Beans dull and tending downwards. Peas ne.

Damns, Nov. 24.—T0-day we had a large supply of
wheat, the incessant rain greatly affected the market, but
the trade was quite as good as last week, sad in some in-
' stances, for the very best qualities, h. a qr. dearer, condi-
tion being considered. Barley was in fair supply, and •
large portion of it of indifferent quality; the very best
samples were • trifle lower than last week, and inferior
sorts from le. to 2s. per qr. lower. Beans were in brisk
demand and were d . No alteration in oats or pew

NANCHISTIR, Nov. 24.—Our market this scorning was
exceedingly inactive in all branches, but although in some
instances the tarn of prices was in favour of buyers, no alte-
ration took place of sufficient importance to enable us to
alter our previous quotations.

NIWAuI, Nov. 23.-At our market today there was a
good attendance of parties disposed to purchase. Samples
were tolerably numerous, and an active business done.
Wheat met.with a fair inquiry and a brisk sal, at last
week's prices. Barley was in fair request, but sustained a
further reduction el 2s. per qr. Oats and beans remain
stationary. Averages : Wheat, white, from 80s. to 845.; red,
745. to 775. ; barley, new, 38e. t 01425.; oats, 325. to 341. per
24 stones ; beans, old, 60s. to 621.
NEWBURY, Nov. 24.-We have this day a largo supply
of wheat, and there being only a local demand, caused the
trade to rale dull on terms in favour of the buyer. Barley
a large supply, and 2s. per qr. lower. Oats, beans, and
peas rather dull.
UXBRIDOB, Nov. 24.-The attendance at today'a mar-
ket was thin and the supply short. The trade for all kindv

average 3s. per qr., although good parcels maintained last
week's prices. Barley and oats gave way also in price, while
beans went up. Sales were heavy for all sorts. Wheat,
665. to 87s. Barley, 275. 6d. to 41s. Oats, 13e. 4d. to 345.

GLASGOW, Nov. 24.-This day's market was thinly at-
tended, and very few transactions were reported in either

previous prices. Oats met a slow sale at last week's rates.

Scotch. Feeding beans 3d. to 641. cheaper.
