CRUEL ROBBERY.—Henry Moore, aged•2o, and described
as a labourer of Hind-street, Poplar, who is well known to
the police as a tcuter to crimps, a thief, and ruffian, was
brought before Mr. Woolrych, charged with stealing 20
sovereigns, a gold watch, a silver watch, a chain, a gold
brooch, and a coat, the money and property of Thomas
Taylor, a bricklayer.
The prosecutor, his wife, and seven children arrived in
the river from Melbourne, in the ship Essex, early yester-
day morning. His destination was his native place, New-
castle-upon-Tyne, and he intended to proceed there by the
steamer from a wharf in Wapping, and he engaged a man
named Mabey to convey his luggage in a van to the wharf
from which the steamer was to depart. The prisoner
came on board the Essex in the comae of the morn-
ing, and pretended that he was employed by Mabey to
take away some of the prosecutor's luggage. The prose-
cutor gave prisoner some old straw beds, and directed him
to remove them from the ship. The prisoner did so, and by
some means obtained pos session of Taylor's coat, which
contained all his money, his watches, and other property he
had accumulated by his industry in Australia. On missing
the coat he went in seach of the prisoner, and made known
his loss to the police. In the course of his inquiries he
ascertained that a man called " Happy" had left the stolen
coat in the shop of a marine store dealer, named Horace
Buchan, in Robin Hood-lane, Poplar. Taylor waged upon
Buchan, who delivered to him the coat, and the coat only,
for the money, watches, brooch, ring, and other articles
were gone. In the course of yesterday afternoon the police
tracked the prisoner to a beerhouse in Poplar, and took him
into custody.
In answer to Mr. Woolrycb, a police-constable named
Gillmore, No. 324 K, said the prisoner was known as
" Happy," and was a most notorious thief,
Horace Buchan, of Robin Hood-lane, marine-store dealer,
said " Happy" brought the prosecutor's coat to his shop
and left it there, and also brought two or three straw beds
and a bag, since identified by Taylor, to the shop at the
same time.

Mr. Woolrych condemned the conduct of Buchan, and
said he ought not to have received the coat of such a fel-
low as the prisoner, and could not pretend to be ignorant
of who and what "Happy" was: It was a most cruel rob-
bery. A poor man directly he returned to his native land
was basely plundered of his hard-earned money and other
property. He should remand the prisoner until Saturday.

MARKETS—This Day.

MARK LANE.

The supply of English wheat on offer here to-day was
very moderate. Selected parcels were in fair demand, at
Monday's prices; otherwise, the trade was dull, at about
previous quotations.
With foreign wheat, both ex ship and ex granary, the
market was well t upplicd. Prime Dantzic and American
produce changed hands to a moderate extent at late rates.
Russian qualities were dull, and rather cheaper; otherwise,
the trade was quiet, on former terms.

Floating cargoes of grain moved off slowly at previous
currencies.

The value of all kinds of barley was well supported; but
the trade—owing to more favourable accounts respecting
the crop—was far frcm active.

Malt was in good demand, and prices ruled firm.

The oat trade was less active, and, in some instances,
the quotations were somewhat easier. The market was
well supplied. _ .

Bears and peas ruled firm, at fully previous rates.
Most kinds of flour were in moderate request, and prices
wera steadily supported.
