FORGERY AND ROBBERY EY A. CLERl;..—Alfred Morley,
aged fourteen, lately a clerk to Mr. Clennell, solicitor,
South-square, Gray's•inn, was rlaced befo-e Mr. Vaughan
charged with forging ihe name of Mr. Clennell, in whose
service he was a short time ago, to a post office order for
£2, and also for stealing a cheque for the payment of £4O.
Mr. Clennell, solicitor, of 7, South-square, Gray's Inn-
road, said the prisoner aoted as his clerk on the 17th inst.
On the 23d he received the letter produced signed, " J.
Fraser," from a place in Monmouthshire, but ho had not
received an order for £2 from that gentleman. The signa.
tore " W. Clennell " to the receipt for the £2 from the
Holborn Post-office for the money was not in his
(witness's) hand-writing, but he believed it to be that
of the prisoner. He had no authority to receive the money
and sign the receipt. The prisoner attended at the °face
early in the morning, and by that means he bad oppor-
tunities of getting possession of the letters. He
had no doubt a large number of letters had been
stolen, as he had discovered many that had
been written to him which he had not received.
In consequence of information he had received he wrote to
Mr Fraser and told him he had neither received the post-
office order for £2 or the cheque for £4O, which had also
been forwarded to him.

The police constable who apprehended the prisoner said
that when ha took him into custody he told him he was
charged with stealing the post-office order. He admitted
stealing it, and further stated that after the robbery he
went to the Crystal Palace and spent one a ivereign, and
lost the other. The prisoner was then Judy committed for
trial.

Mr. Lewis, who prosecu'ed,
said he now intended to
proceed with a charge against the prisoner for stealing a
cheque for £4O. He admitted having destroyed the docu-
ment to the police officer, when he was taken into custody.
Mr. Beard, who appeared for the prisoner, objected to the
charge being proceeded with in the absence of Mr. Fraser,
who had transmitted the cheque from Monmouthshire
Mr. Lewis said, under those circumstances 1.12 should not
proceed with the charge that day, but he gave the prisoner
notice that it would be preferred against him at the Old
Bailey.
An application to admit the prisoner to bail was refused.

wool con.inues good Both for Cape and Austraian pro-

trade for English wool, however, there is less activity, and

facturing distric's Irish hogget wool has fallen Id to lid
per lb from the late highest point. The imports into Lon-

WESTMINSTER.

ROBBERY BY A SHOPMAN.—Henry Clarke, shopman in
the service of Mr Thomas Charles, fishmonger, was charged
before Mr Partridge with robbing his employer.
Mr B. Hutchinson attended for the prosecutor.

Evidence was given showing that the prisoner was in
the employment of the prosecutor, who lives in Arabella-
row, Pimlico, about six weeks, and that in consequence of
suspicions of his dishonesty, on Sunday last, Mr Charles
made a communication to the police, upon which Sergeant
Hornblow was employed to detect the prisoner. On Sun-
day last (the previous day) two florins and a half-crown
were marked and given to two tradesmen. They in the
course of the afternoon called to purchase some fish, and
gave the three pieces of coin in exchange fot them. In the
evening when the prisoner left he gave prosecutor 5-4 2d.
He was told by th© prosecutor that he had 2s 6d. Ho put
his hand in his pocket and took out of it a half crown, which
he said was given to him by Goss, another shopman, and
observed that they had agreed to divide the half-crown.
Sergeant Hornblow proved having taken the prisoner
into custody. The prisoner stated to him that the half
crown was given to him by Goss, which the latter denied.
The prisoner was committed for trial.

Large supplies of old potatoes continue on sale at those
market for the time of year, and the trade rules heavy in
the extreme at irregular prices. Inferior qualities are
taken by cowkeepers as low as 20s, and 255, 30s,

seasonably good—there is a steady demand, at from 12a to

HOUSE.

Mr F. S. POWELL asked the First Commissioner of
Works whether he intended to afford the house an interval,
and, if so, what interval for deliberation after making his
statement relative to the Government proposal for erection
of the National Gallery at Burlington House before asking
the house to vote money for that purpose.
Mr. CO WPE ft said that personally he would wish to
meet the views of the hon. member without infringing the
rules of the house, which prohibited any discussion on b
vote in supply until that vote was proposed. He had no
wish to avoid giving the fullest intormation in committee
of supply. In order that an opportunity might be afforded
tor ample discussion of the vote it would not be taken to-
night, bat on the next evening, when it could come on first.

The supply of hops on sale continue small. There was
no arrival of foreign produce into London last week, and
the market is very moderately supplied with most descrip-

the trade is dull, and the quotations have a downward

THE RED SKIPPER,

•
The following fragment of an amusing skit, pur-
porting to be an ancient Sco!ch ballad, has been
communicated by Jonathan Oldbuck, jun., to the
Morning herald :
The Qu—n she sate is Windsor Tower
Said she, " My ladyes fine,
Oh wha will rid me of yon Red Skipper
That stirs this land a' mine ?"
Then up and spoke Sir Charlie Ph—pps,
That gallant K.C,13.,
may it please your grace, the Sutherland yacht
Is the swiftest sails the sea."
The Qu—n she's written a braid letter,
I ween wi' angry look,
An' she's sent it aff to St—ff—rd House,
To the duchess and the duke.
An' she's sent anither to Bedford John,
An' to Palmerston the same,
To say she's ra' surprised at ane,
But t'ither she counts a shame.
The duke feasted in St—ff—rd H—se,
The duchesses twain also ;
And Garibaldi in the midst,
And his suite all set in row,
The Mayor of Hampton an' his dame,
S—l—y and B—les, of course,
And Bassoeke (who once annexed
The English parson's horse).
An' the hely Airl o'ShafcesburY,
Wha fought the Man o' Sin
Wi' Bible twa ilk side his plate,
When Sir Ch—r--l—s he entered in.
Now save and sain ye gentles a' I
I bear the Qu—n's behest,
And micklo I fear, my masters dear,
Her humours' no the best.
" For I saw her w' the Times last night,
And the _Post aneath her arm ;
And the 'Tizer on the table lay ;
An' she said, ' come to harm.
" For it bodes nae good when loons like you
Take Sovereign's name in vain ;
And we know how ho wrote to the Pope o' Rome
Free aff the Spanish Main.'
" Ye may haud up your hands, Lord Shaftesbury,
But yell sure believe your een,
When ye read it prented in black and white.
As sure as I'm the Qa—n--

Ye'd better gee home au' pray
For a craftier head an' a wiser wit
Tcan ye hac shown to-day.
" And when next ye gae to Sydenham
Wi' the Druids an' Bands o' Hope,
Just keep in mind what your Hero said
(When it suited him) o' the Pope.

NORTHERN OF FRANCE,

The general meeting of this company was held
on the 26tb ult. in Paris—Baron James de Roths-
child, the president, i❑ the chair.
M. DELEBECQUE, the vice-president, read the re-
port, which refers to the terms of a convention en-
tered into with the Minister of Public Works for
abrogating certain arrangements made with the
State in 1859 and 1863, relative to a guarantee of
interest to be given to the shares cf the
paw rmes in case the net returns should
be insufficient. As the new lines had not
exceeded the original estimates, and were
not likely to diminish the:company's receipts, no
necessity existed for any aid from the State, and
consequently there was no advantage in having the
lines divided. The board, therefore, had no doubt
that the shareholders would ratify the new and
amended arrangements. The two new branches
would cost about 12,500,000 f. (C 500,000), which
would give an ample return from the nature of the
country through which the lines were to run. The
new terminus at Paris was finished in its most essen-
tial parts, and the greatest portion of the various
offices were now occupied. The expense had been
4,345,513 f. (E 178,820). Oat of Paris the expenses
for the lines completed and at work had been less
than during the preceding year, consisting princi-
pally of improvements in the stations, sheds, and gas
lighting. On the new lines the works were going
on with regularity. On the lines from Boulogne
to Calais, the tunnel near the former town had been
commenced at five places, the whole length being
1,400 metres. The principal tunnel on the line, from
Amiens to Rouen, that of Sommery, 1,500 metres in
length, presented no difficulties, and had been set-
tled on satisfactory terms. The works on the lines
from Amiens to Sergnier, and from Soissons to
Laon, were going on steadily. Tb. Government
authorities had not yet given in their approbation
to the plans submitted to them for the line from
Lisle to Tournay, but the board hoped to be able to
commence the works during the present summer.

The whole outlay on the old lines in 1863 had been
5,895,300 f. (£213,812), which when added to the
preceding expenditure, gave a total of 439,375,800
(£17,574,232). The outlay on the new lines for

following advantages :—A set or teeth, of excellent work-

most perfect accuracy and success, in a few hours, without
pain or extraction of stumps, and to answer all the purposes
of mastication and articulation. They are fitted without
wires or fastenings, and adapt themselves so perfectly to the
gums, that they are quite immoveable, except at the option
of the wearer. Invalids or residents in the country can ad-
just these teeth to many changes of the mouth without the
aid of a dentist. They are not so iiable to injury, are always
useful, and will last a lifetime. Comfort guaranteed. Trea-
