POLICE INTELLIGENCE

LIVE RP00L...-SATIIIIDAY.

(BEFORE MR. SANDS.)
EXTENSIVE PLUNDER.—Francis Badly, a boy about 18
years of age, was charged with having stolen about £4.5
worth of wearing apparel from- the shop of Mr. Earp,
tailor, Whitechapel, and Martha Badly, the boy's
mother, was charged with receiving the same, knowing
it to have been stolen. Scaife and M'Culloch, detec-
tives, were examined, and from their evidence it
appeared that, on the 2nd of September, Mr. Grundy, a
pawnbroker in Richmond-row, informed them that he
had received some articles of wearing apparel in pledge
from the female prisoner, and he suspected she had not
come properly by them. The officers followed the
No. 4 court, Christian-street, where she

woman to

They could not find out where she worked, nor
where the boy worked; at last, they found out that the
boy had been employed at Mr. Earp's, Whitechapel, for
about seven weeks, but had left about three weeks ago.
On searching the house, the officers found a great
number of pawn tickets of property, to the amount of
£45, which the prisoners had pledged. The property
consisted of coats, vests, trousers, &c. They also got a
stock in the place, which had been stolen from Mr. Earp's.
Thompson said he got a key in the boy's pocket, which
opened a box, in which he found 31 pawn tickets, issued
by 14 pawnbrokers, and these were for coats, trousers,
. Mr. Robert Nisbitt, foreman to Mr. Earp,
an the boy was in the employment as porter, for seven
weeks ; he had free access to the clothes, but was not
allowed to take or remove aoy thing. He identified a
variety of property, which was produced by several
pawnbrokers, and the prisoners were identified by
boys from the pawnshops, as the persons who pledged
the property. The bay, in reply to the charge, said he
pledged the goods. The woman admitted having pledged
some of the things, but added that she got them from
her son, who Informed her that he had purchased them.

STATE OF TRADE IN MANCHESTER

The following is a monthly report of trade it
Manchester:—

The action of this market since" the date of our last
monthly circular, has been of a changeable character ; and
although it cannot be said to have maintained th.
general:activity of some preceding months, yet the transa
actions of the present one have been on a very consi-
derable scale, arising from fresh operations and pre-
viously existing contracts. And it must be remembered
that the month of September is always a critical one,
involving as it always does much anxiety attending the
result of the harvest. Moreover, too, in reference to its
position in former years, when the absence of the present
facilities for intercourse, both at home and abroad, re-
garded it, with that of March, as the two most important
months of the year. It began well, as possessing the
attributes attaching to the influence of a very favourable
change in the weather. It exhibited not only symptoms
of improvement, but assumed comparative reality. A
similar improvement, arising from the same cause, was
occasioned in Liverpool, with regard to cotton. This
state of things continued until about the 16th, when
indisposition was shown on the part of buyers to
operate, from an apprehension that more stringency
in the money market, in the opinion of many was
inevitable; and that the high prices then demanded
could not be real Ned. At that period active operations
became comparatively suspended, and continued so until
about the 22nd and 25th, when, in consequence of the Bank
of England not having raised its discounts, and previous
accounts from the United States as to the present and
future value of cottotr, confidence became restored in both
markets. A very large business has since been done in
cotton; and to-day quotations represent, the value of that
article at least l-16d to id per lb higher than it was a
month ago in nearly all qualities : and we are led to
entertain no expectation of prices, during this year at
least, being materially lower. We therefore calculate that '
the present prices of both goods and yarns cannot undergo
much declension; but admitting that from some adverse
influenceithey may be temporarily depressed, yet even
then an opinion prevails that they would not permanently
deviate much from the present rates. We cannot, how-
ever, disregard the characteristics of the money market,
which in its present position is calculated still to produce
apprehension, and to excite feelings'of an injurious tend-
Neing that the rates of discount are in Paris 6 per
:nt., in Hamburg 9 per cent., 6 per cent. in Berlin, and in
Vienna 5 per cent., with a probability that it will be
higher, and that the Bank of England may in consequence
be compelled to advance its rates. These several causes
must exercise their accustomed influence. The demand
during the month has extended to both home and export
purposes, and the scarcity of stock applicable to both
would appear to refer more particularly to the latter.
Taking the result as to both, the
_stocks are exceedingly
,light, with the exception of some descriptions of domes-
tics and 40-inch gold and shirtings for instance, which
have been for some time not only very unremunerative,
but their manufacture attended with actual loss, yet the
generality of productions continue to be favourable. We
note as instances 7 Bths and 9 Bths printers, 9.Bth and
6.4ths maddapollarns, &c., upon which an advance—and
in some instances a material one—has to be paid. The

We may remark also that a very unfavourable state of
the weather has prevailed during the last ten or fourteen
days; a fact -which has, northwards, affected the probable
result of the harvest, and consequently diminished the
expectations of an abundant one being realised. ,
