THE FUNDS.-(THIS DAY.)

CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK.
Owing to the strong north-west winds we have not the
arrival of a single foreign mail this morning, consequently
we are without any information at present. The private
letters received yesterday from Amsterdam state that the
King was expected there to review the troops ; also, that a
new loan was to be brought forward to the amount of sixty
millions of guilders.
Console, which left off yesterday very heavy at 84 for the
Account, opened at 84 to*, went up to 814, and at pre-
sent are 84 to I. The French mail is anxiously looked
for, by which, no doubt, we shall have further accounts of
the operations of the Patriots in Spain. Spanish Stock
221. In other Foreign Securities little doing.

TWO O'CLOCK.
The Consol Market, which had the appearance in the
early part of the morning of an improvement, when Con-
,ols were at 84ii for the Account, have since declined to
84 1, at which price they are at present. The cause of
the fall is attributed to some Money Stock being sold.
It appears by accounts from Milliner that that place has
been pot in a respectible state of defence, and numerous
corps of Delgiaa volunteers had arrived there from Tarte-
moot, Campene, and Duffle, and the contending parties
are only divided by the river Nether ; therefore we may
expect soon to hear of some desperate actions, particularly
when the Belgians learn the late decree of the King of
Holland.
In the Foreign Market little or nothing doing ; Spanish

ANNUALS FOR 1831.

ACKERMANN'S FORGET ME NOT.

This elegant little annual is equal to the very
best of its predecessors. Nothing can be richer
or more varied ;than its numerous illustrations.
The " Esther" of Martin, in particular, which
has found a worthy engraver in Finden, is ex-
quisitely beautiful, and is very properly made
the frontispiece of the volume. The prose
which accompanies this little gem, is from the
a writer who has mush energy and corn-
pen of
mand of language. The Italian scene, from the
pencil of Barrett, also deserves praise as a work
of art. It is highly finished, and has quite an
air of romance and poetry about it. Of the
remainder of the engravings, we have only time
to particularize the showy and splendid one of
the Japanese Palace at Dresden.

LAW INTELLIGENCE.-(THIS DAY.)

COURT OF KING'S BENCH.

LIABILITY OF TAVERN-.ILIEXPICRS ....CAIII4II/LL V. BUSBY.

Mr. FKEDIRICK POLLOCK, (with whom WAS Mr.WAT.
6024) stated that this was an action brought to recover the
value of a great coat, and other articles, that had been lost
from the hoube of the defendant.

It appeared from the evidence that the plaintiff, who is
a gentleman of fortune, arrived in England on the 17th
of last March, and immediately proceeded. in company
with his brother, to the Ship tavern, Water-lane, Tower-
street, of which tavern the defendant is landlord. He
had with him a great coat, a shawl, and a foreign pipe,
which, when he retired to rest, he took up to his chamber
with him. In the morning be brought them down, and
hung the coat on a peg in the coffee-room. When the
plaintiff was about to leave the house, the coat and
other articles could not be found, he, in conse-
quenx, mentioned the circumstance to the head-waiter,
and inquiries were made of all the servants, but nothing
could be heard of the coat. At length, however, the
waiter said that he thought a gentleman who visited the
house, and who resided in the neighbourhood, had taken
it away by mistake. However, such did not turn out to
be the case, and the plaintiff, from that day to the present,
had heard nothing of his lost property. The Learned
Counsel said he was at a loss to conjecture what defence
would be set up, as not the least doubt could exist of the
legal responsibility of the defendant; and it was neces-
sary for the protection of the public that hotel and tavern
keepers should have persona about them of sufficient dili-
gence and honesty to take care of the property of persons
visiting their houses.
. . . _

Th; plaintiff's brother deposed to the above facts, and
stated that the coat cost 71., the shawl 125., and the
tobacco-pipe 21. 11s. On their leaving the decadent's
house they left their address with the waiter.

On hiscross-examination, the witness said be would
swear positively, when the coat could not be found, that
he never said that perhaps they did not take it to the
house, but left it in the baggage warehouse.
Mr. J. WILLIAMS addressed the Jury at some length
for the defence, He admitted, that if the coat had been
lost at the defendant's house, be was bound by law t•
make good the loss. The Learned Counsel then called
Three waiters, the porter, and the chamber-maid, who
all stated that, when the plaintiff and his brother came to
the house they had no great coat with them, and also that
they said, when it was mentioned, that they must have left
it at the baggage warehouse.
After this evidence had been adduced, Mr. POLLOCK
called

Major Mallagan, who stated that he called at the de-
fendant's a few days after the coat was lost, by desire of
the plaintiff; that he then saw the head waiter, who ex-
pressed his sorrow for the loss, but certainly never men-
tioned a syllable about the plaintiffs having suggested that
be might have left the coat at the baggage warehouse.
Lord TINTERDEN having briefly summed up, the Jury
returned a verdict for the plaintiff—Damages 71.
No other cute posse+sing any point of public interest
came before the Court during the morning. Several
causes were struck out of the paper, in consequence of the
non-attendance of the solicitors engaged in them.

OLD BAILEY.-(THIS DAY.)
OLD COURT.

henry hide, aged 28, stood indicted for stealing on
the 12th of October last, from Richard Townley, his
master, gold neck-chains and sundry other articles, to the
value of la

Mr. Richard Townley, a jeweller, resided at No. 6,
Cursitor-street, Chancery-lane. The prisoner lived with
him from August last as clerk and warehouseman. On
the 12th of October the prisoner left his employment,
without having given any previous notice. He did not
return at night, as was his custom, to sleep; he suspected
something wrong immediately, and went to some pawn-
brokers where articles of his (the prosecutor's) were
found, and the prisoner was taken into custody next day.
Six or eight pawnhrokers produced hair or neck-chains
which had been pledged with them by the prisoner (whom
they identified) at various times.

The prosecutor had no doubt that the whole of the pro-
perty was his. He had never authorized the prisoner to
pawn any part of the goods..—. Guilty.
Mr. Serpent ARABIN made some inquiries of the pro-
secutor after the prisoner bad been removed from the bar,
as to his former character, the result of which satisfied the
Court (as the Learned Serjeant raid) that it would be ne-
cessary to send the prisoner oat of the country.
Thomas Jackson, aged 22, and John Wood, 19, were
indicted for stealing two saws and some other tools, the
property of James Watts, which he had left in the house
from which they were taken, and in which he had been
working.

The -prosecutor and three or four other carpenters,
proved that they had lost the tools specified in the indict-
ment. The prisoners were seen coming out of the house
carrying the articles, were pursued by an officer, and taken
into custody immediately. There was no doubt as to their
identity.—Guilty.
The COURT here also intimated that both prisoners
should be sent out of the country.
Laurence Powell, a mason, aged 48, was indicted under
Lord Ellenborough's Act, for maliciously assaulting and
wounding John APDonough, on the 25th September last.
One count stated that it was with intent to murder ; a
second, to disable; and a third, to do the prosecutor some
grievous bodily harm.

The prisoner applied to have his trial put off, that he
might have the opportunity of seeing some witneasts to
character.

John M'Doneugh sworn—Was on the 25th of Septem-
ber last a watchman, and at the same time kept a shop in
Berwick-street, Westminster ; had known the prisoner
for three or four years. About six months previous to the
25th of September last hail a quarrel with the prisoner,
and they fought together. In September met the pri-
soner in Berwick-street, and asked him how he was.—
Prisoner replied, " Very well, but you shall be very ttn-
well." Prosecutor observed, " If you say so again, I'll
serve you out, as I did you before." On the former occa-
sion he (prosecutor) had knocked him down. Did not ie-
collect that on the 25th September last he accompanied his
expression with a blow. lie might have struck the prisoner
first, and drawn blood from his nose, but not as he knew
of. Could not say whether he had stretched out his fist
towards the prisoner, before the prisoner struck him or not.
Was struck on the occasion in question by the prisoner,
rendered insensible, and carried into a surgeon's shop.
Mr. Baron GARROW, with the entire concurrence of
Mr. Justice Parke, considered it his duty to stop the pro.
secution. From the evidence of the prosecutor, it appeared
quite doubtful whether or not the prosecutor bad not pro-
voked the prisoner to act as he had done; and clear, that
if M'Donough had died, it would only have been a case of
manslaughter, and not of murder.—Not
John Steptoe, aged 21, a labourer, was indicted for
stealing, in the month of September last two sheep, from
Mr. Beckett, a beast salesman, living near Aylesbury, his
property.
