POLICE INTELLIGENCE—This Day.

MARLBOROUGILSTREET.

FRACAS AT THE OXFORD Music HALL.--Mr Charles
Wright Geddes, of 29, King-street, llolborn, engineer, was
charged before Mr Tyrwhitt with assaulting Mr James
Frederick Evans, a clerk, residing at 103, Winchester-
street, Pimlico, at the Oxford Music Hall.

Mr Evans said—On Saturday evening, about 11 o'clock,
I was at the Oxford Music Hall. The defendant accused
me of insulting some ladies who were with him, and I in-
dignantly denied it. The defendant moved to the opposite
side of the table where I was sitting and then got up, and
believing that ho was about to strike me I pushed him
hack into his chair. Anything further I do not recollect,
except that my head was broken. The defendant had been
sitting some way off, and the female opposite to me. On
getting outside of the hall, and the defendant being pointed
out to me, I gave him in charge. My head was dressed
by the divisional surgeon in Ilart-street, Bloomsbury.
By Mr Lewis—l had been sitting opposite ladies for one
hour and a half. I did not hear one of the ladies complain
to the defendant, and change her seat in consequence of my
annoyance. I had done nothing to annoy the ladies, The
defendant did not say my remarks were offensive, neither
did he beckon the waiter to come to him. I pushed back
but did not strike him. I was not intoxicated but had been
dining out. The ladies never spoke to me and the singing
had been going on. I took no notice of them. I did not
say at the station that I had spoken to the ladies, but had
not insulted them. I cannot say what I said at the station-
house as I was confused from loss of blood.

A witness—l heard some high words, and on turning
round saw the defendant strike the complainant on the head
with a bottle. I afterwards heard the defendant say the
complainant had insulted some ladies.

Mr. Arthur Barrett, classical tutor, of 103, Winchester-
street, Pimlico--I was sitting a few yards off when my
attention was called to a disturbance, and I saw the de-
fendant strike complain ant with a bottle, and the com-
plainant fell back.

William Moorcroft, 165 E—l took the defendant into
custody and the complainant to the divisional Burgeon, who
dressed his head. The complainant was saturated with
blood. The defendant said the complainant interfered with
some ladies who were with him.

Mr Lewis addressed the magistrate on the defendant's
behalf, stating, that he did not wish to deny the assault,
but that the complainant had given great provocation. The
ladies, one of whom was Geddes, had complained to Mr.
Geddes of the complainant's conduct, and Mr. Geddes,
when he was pushedi back, took up the nearest
thing to hand and struck the complainant. The assault
was quite unpremeditated, though he (Mr Lewis) was will-
ing to admit there was excess. Mr Lewis then called

Miss Anne Shakspeare, of 29, King-street, Holborn, who
said—l accompanied Mr and Mrs Geddes to the Oxford
Music Hall on Saturday night. While sitting at the tablo
the complainant pushed some ginger beer bottles in Mrs
Geddes's lap, and then begged Mrs Geddes's pardon, which
was granted. The complainant then said something to Mrs
Geddes, but, in consequence of the music, I did not hear
what it was. They changed places because the complainant
spoke to Mrs Geddes, but they made no complaint to Mr
Geddes. The complainant struck Mr Geddes, and then Mr
Geddes struck the complainant with a bottle. The com-
plainant was not sober.
Mr Lewis said the only other witness he had was Mrs
Geddes, who could rot be called.
Mr. Tyrwhitt said he thought it was often a pity the
wife could not be called, because in the present case the
real offence 'taken was not at the ginger-beer bottles being
pushed into Mrs. Geddes' lap, but at something which she
had represented to her husband. The complainant hart
been drinking, and first offended Mrs Geddes by what ha d
been stated, and no doubt then said something to her, av,d
then the rest followed. It was very natural that Mr.
Geddes should have struck the complainant under the cir-
cumstances, and if he had used his fist very little would
have been thought of it, but he should not have struck
with a bottle, as he might have caused the death of the
complainant, and been charged with manslaughter. It was
a mere case of excess, and he thought the parties had bet-
ter have settled the case themselves.

After some conversation between Mr Lewis and the com-
plainant, the complainant said he would be content if Mir
Geddes placed something in the poor's box.
Mr Lewis said that the offer of the complainant was very
handsome, and that tho defendant would place £2 in tho
poor box.

The Complainant—l wish emphatically to state that I
never insulted either of the ladies.
The defendant was then liberated.

THAMES.

IMPItISONMENT OF A. GENTLEMAN WITHOUT A
FINE;
James Hislop, a middle-aged man, was charged before Mr
Paget with assaulting the wife of a tradesman, of the name.
of Phillips. a fruiterer in business in Charles-street, St.
Georges-in-the-East.
Police Constable 123 IC, said that about 11 o'clock on
Saturday night he heard a disturbance in Charles-street ;
when on reaching the house of Mr Phillips he found the
prisoner who was challenging him (Phillips) to fight. After
a great deal of trouble he induced the prisoner to go away.
In about an hour after he found the prisoner there again,
threatening to fight Mr Phillips, when witness was obliged 4
to take him to the Station-house.
The prisoner stated that he was in the act of lighting hi a
cigar from ages-light in the shop of Mr. Phillips, when I. Le
called him a thief. Mr. Phillips denied that he sooke to
the prisoner, and said that while the prisonor was at oat to
light his cigar, he attempted to put his arm round his
wife's neck. _ _

The constable said that at the station-house he ad: nitted
that he might have accidentally touched Mrs. Phillip P.
Mr. Paget observed that he nevor looked over an a ssault
of that description. It wasd.
a gross outrage upon a m trriL
woman which he would punish severely.
The prisoner was sent to prison for seven dayt'.
The prisoner asked the magistrate to impose a. fine.
Mr. Paget—Certainly not.

THEATRES IN LIVERPOOL—The Liverpool minis.
trates yesterday cancelled the two following rules
relative to the theatres in the borough, inasmuch Rs% they
had been instructed by counsel that they had no pow er to
impose these terms upon the managers :—" That no .com-
mon prostitute or reputed thief, or other notoriously dis-
orderly person, shall be knowingly admitted into, or 1 )er-
witted to remain in any of the said theatres, but that t. he
manager shall to the best of his ability maintain and keep
good order and decent behaviour in the theatre daring the
hours of performance. And every manager or other per-
son having the care or management of any theatre, who,
shall make default in compliance with these rules, or
either of them, shall forfeit and pay for such offence a
sum not exceeding £20." It was stated that similar
rules to these existed in Birmingham, Manchester, and
elsewhere.

and Wales £1,658,265. The cost per head of the pc pulation

PROFESSOR ANDERSON.--This eminent master
of legerdemain commences to-night, at S.t, James's
Hall, a series of grand entertainments under the tit]e of
"the World of Magic," which will embrace a variety of
startling novelties in his peculiar art. The. well-known
skill of the Professor, who, as " Wizird of the North,"
has become celebrated not only in this country but abroad,
will doubtless secure for him a large amount of public/
support,

MONEY MARKET

AND

COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE,

TWELVE O'CLOCK.

The Money Market now exhibits syraptetn; of
stringency, and there seems little likelihood of a
return to easier rates for some time to come. The
brokers require 8 per cent. as their minimum quo-
tation even for the b2st short dated paper, and as
preparations are now in progress for various pay-
ments, such as revenue and the other usual liqui-
dations as the termination of the year approaches,
the demand for accommodation has recent:y been
more active. With this additional inquiry for ca.
pital, much of the recent surplus of the market
will, no doubt, soon be worked off, and as a re-
sumption of shipments of specie to the East has
commenced the public foresee very little chance of
cheaper money prevailing during the remainder of
the present year.

There were no bullion operations of importance
at the Bank on Saturday.

The Masailia, which left yesterday for India and
China, conveyed £176,359, principally silver.
The Wellesley has arrived from Port Philip,
with £94,936.

The failure was announced on Saturday of
Messrs. Palmer and Co., East India merchants, of
Cullum•street, With liabilities amounting to nearly
£200,000.

The accounts from the manufacturing districts for
the past week have in most instances been of a less
satisfactory character. At Manchester there has
been less demand for both cloths and yarns, although
prices remained steady. The woollen trade of Lan-
cashire, Bradford, and Huddersfield has been rather
dull, while at Leicester and Northampton there has
been a fair business transacted in most descriptions
of hosiery and lace. In the hardware districts of
Birmingham, Sheffield, and Wolverhampton, there
has been little change of importance to report.
A general meeting of shareholders of the Credit
Mobilier was held today, and the proposal for
paying a dividend and bonus of £2 per share, free
of income.tax, and for an amalgamation with the
Credit Foncier was carried unanimously. A meeting
of the Credit Foncier was also held, and like pro-
positions for the payment of dividend and for amal-
gamating with the Credit Mobilier were carried.

Two o'cLocK.

At Paris this day, according to Mr. Renter's
telegram, the French 3 per Cents. were 661. 70c.
Heavy.

The English Stock Market during the earlier
'part of the day exhibited reactionary symptoms,
and a recovery of 1 per cent. was reported. Since
then, however, continued sales have forced down
prices a lower, and Consols for money and the Bth
are 881 88, and for October, 881 1. The New
Threes and Reduced Annuities are 86 k ; Exchequer
Bills, 20s. die. ; and India Stock is 212.
Foreign Stocks have also generally declined, and
business is very dull. Turkish 6 per Cents., 1862,

In the Railway Share Market there has been
very little animation, and prices in most instances
have shown less firmness. South Eastern, Brighton,
and South Western have each declined 10s. ; and
Great Eastern, Metropolitan, and North Eastern
(Berwick) ss.

The Foreign and Colonial lines remain very
'lull at about former vdluss.

Bank and Miscellaneous Shares show very little
animation, and quotations exhibit no material
change.
