THE MARKETS.-(THIS DAY.)

CORN EXCHANGE.

The past week's arrival of Wheat was moderate, and of all
other grain considerable. The trade for Wheat rather tended
upwards, but 'every other article was extremely heavy. This
morning there has been a middling fresh supply of Wheat,
/me good of all other Corn. The few fine parcels of Wheat
that appeared obtained Is. per qr. advance on the terms of
last Monday; other qualities remained without alteration. Bar.
ley continues to meet an excessively dull trade, and is again
Is. to 2s. per qr. cheaper. Old Beans are unaltered; New
come very tender, and are 2s. per qr. lower than this day
se'nnight. Barley and Grey Peas arc declined ls. per qr.
The quantity of Oats now chewing is large, and the demand
being slack, this article is further reduced Is. per qr. since
last Monday. The quantity of Flour for sale is tolerably
good, and the trade remains dull at former prices.

WORSHIP-STREET.

Yesterday James Prior, aged 7 years, Lydia Prior, aged
1 years, Hannah Prior•, aged 9 years, and James Daniels,
aged 9 years, were placed at the bar before Mr. BROUGH-
TON, charged with entering the dwelling-house of Elizabeth
Bloxham, Harmony Cottage, Willington-row, Bethnal-
green, and stealing a quantity of wearing apparel, consist-
ing of twelve shirts, two aprons, twelve towels, &c.
The prisoners, with the exception of James, were then
remanded till Saturday next. James was allowed to go
with his father. While the mother was leaving the office
she was heard to utter a threat against her son James,
which was made known to the Magistrate.
Mr. BROUGHTON warned her against such a course. He
called her attention to the situation in which, from her
neglect, she had placed her infant family, which was the
effect of her dissolute habits. He pictured to her the fate
that appeared to impend over their future lives, and urged
her to reform her course.
The worthy Magistrate then directed that a summons
should be issued for the appearance of the pawnbroker.

THE FUNDS.-(THIS DAY.)

CITY, T ELTE O'CLOCK
We are exceedingly barren of intelligence this morning,
owing to there being very few arrivals.
The dispatches received yesterday by the East India
Company, as well as the private letters by the merchants
from Bombay of the 7th of May, are silent in respect to
the report of disturbances having broken out in Siam, and
that 23,000 houses had been destroyed by fire in that place.
Papers of the 3d of May are received from Bombay, which
state that the city of Surat has been injured by fire ; even
if true it could not have been of that disastrous magnitude
as was reported, otherwise the private letters of the 7th of
May would have noticed the event, as well as the dis-
turbance at Bangalore. Some disorder prevailed, which
was soon put down.

HATTON-GARDEN.

LAWRENCE, THE SWlNDLER.—Yesterday numerous ap-
plications were made at this Office by respectable trades-
men, &c., to have a view of Joseph Lawrence, who stands
committed until Wednesday next on various charges of
swindling, to ascertain whether he was the individual who
had duped them out of their property.
Mr. Stewart, a master tailor, of No. 58, St. Paul's
Church-yard, stated that about three weeks ago an elderly
man, of respectable appearance, entered his shop, and, pre-
senting his card of address, No. 19, Jewin-street, ordered
a suit of clothes for his son to be forwarded to his resi-
dence. The foreman took with him a coat, and, on his ar-
rival, he was ushered into the parlour, which was respect.
ably furnished, but the son was not at home, and the el-
derly person who ordered the clothes, on examining the
coat, said he had no doubt it would fit, and suggested that
if any alteration was required it could be performed. The
foreman left the coat, and, on the following Saturday, a
trowsers and waistcoat were taken home, which were left,
and he was told by a female that her master would not be
home until twelve o'clock, as be was at Hampton Court.
On the Menday morning the apprentice was sent for the
money, but he was told by a young man, of dirty and rag-
ged appearance, to call on the Tuesday morning, and he
should be paid. On calling, however, he found that the
parties had removed the whole of their goods, and they
had absconded. On making inquiries it was ascertained
that they had only occupied the house one fortnight, during
which period they had swindled most of the tradespeople
about the neighbourhood. Mr. Gaze, shoemaker ; Mr.
Swaine, a poulterer ; Mr. Williams, fishmonger ; and va-
rious other tradespeople in Cheapside, St. Paul's Church-
yard, &c. were extensively taken in by the same party.
The officers have traced various other swindling trans-
actions to the prisoner, and the applicants were advised to
attend the examination on Wednesday next, when they
would have an opportunity of identifying the prisoner.
Bryan, a notorious vagrant, was charged with
having committed a daring and aggravated assault upon
Mrs. Marks, of Tottenham-court-road. The prisoner de-
nied the Charge, hut she was convicted in the penalty of
5/., or two months' imprisonment.

QUEEN- S Q UA RE.
Thomas Brooks, a drayman in the employ of Messrs.
Broadwood, and William Brooks, his brother, were yester-
day placed at the bar, charged by Mr. Charles Tipper, re-
siding in Sloane-street, Chelsea, with having committed a
desperate assault upon his sister on Saturday last. On Mr.
GREGORY, the presiding Magistrate, calling on them for
their defence, they entered into a rambling story as to cer-
tain reports which were prevalent in the complainant's
neighbourhood, but which Mr. GREGORIZ declined enter-
ing into, and the complainant pressing the charge they were
held to bail.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.

MANSION-HO USE.
A young woman, named Holdforth, the wife of a pic-
ture-frame maker, was brought before Sir Peter Laurie,
who sat as locum tenens for the Lord Mayor, for having
got drunk and acted in an obstreperous manner in the
workhouse of Aldgate.
The parish officer said that the parish had been in the
habit of keeping the family of the man and woman for
years, although they were both sturdy, and could with care
and industry maintain the children, every one of whom was
born in the workhouse. They were in fact an incorrigible
pair.
The woman said that the officer told lies about her and
her family. She was as industrious a woman and her hus-
band was as industrious a man as ever lived, but they could
not help misfortunes.
Sir PETER LAURIE—And your misfortunes have been
brought on by drink, I am told.
Mr. Holdforth—No such thing ; I nerer drink.
Overseer—She gets drunk frequently, and comes home
to the workhouse determined to abuse everybody.
Mrs. Holdforth—What a rascally lie ! I came in quite
sober, and you began to whop me, and I can't submit to
that. .

Overseer—We were obliged to put a strait waistcoat
upon her, she was so violent and so strong.
Sir PETER LAURIE—Why don't you bring her husband
here ? Overseer—He is here.
Holdforth —I can't maintain my family.
Overseer—He might have work now if he pleased, but
le is lazy and idle, and given to strong liquors as well as his
We can't get rid of them. The woman regularly
comes into the workhouse to be brought to bed, and they
consider us bound to support all the family for life.
Sir PETER LAURIE—Let them be detained in the
Compter for a week, and be kept on bread and water, and
then we shall see whether they will not make way for the
real objects, whom it is base under any circumstances or
laws to refuse.
The parish officers were evidently pleased at this formi-
dable way of disposing of this inveterate couple of parochial
appendages, but repeated to Sir Peter the assurance that
they never so frightfully violated Christian charity as to
deny assistance to the aged poor.

LORD PALMERSTON'S ADDRESS TO

THE ELECTORS OF TIVERTON.

TO THE FREE AND INDEPENDENT ELECTORS
OF THE BOROUGH OF TIVERTON.
Gentlemen—Permit me again to request that you will
accept my best thanks for the great honour you have done
me in electing me to be one of your representatives in Par-
liament ; and be assured that I shall strive to show myself
worthy of your confidence, by a zealous performance of my
public duties, and by an anxious regard for the local inte-
rests of the intelligent and active community which I have
the good fortune to represent.
The result of the general election has been to give to the
Reformers a decided and sure majority in the House of
Commons, fully sufficient to secure the ascendancy of those
principles of Government which you profess, and according
to which you desire to see the affairs of the country ad-
ministered.
It will undoubtedly be necessary for the Reformers to
remain united ; for by union among themselves, by perseve-
rance against difficulties, and by patience under temporary
delays, the Reformers of the three United Kingdoms will
ensure the steady progress of legislative improvement.
Ireland is the part of the empire where the greatest
abuses prevail, and where the remedies are most urgently
required for existing evils ; and the people of Ireland have
unequivocally demonstrated, by their present choice of re-
presentatives, what their opinion is of the relative merits of
the two opposite systems of government upon which oppo-
sing candidates have recently taken their stand.
Gentlemen, I hope shortly to have the pleasure of paying
my respects to you upon an occasion of public amuse-
ment, at which political differences will be laid aside, and
at which party struggles will be forgotten ; and, in the
meantime, I have the honour to be,
Your devoted and faithful servant,
Stanhope-street, Aug. 15. PALMERSTON.

KENT V. PICKERING.-JUDGMENT.

In this case a balance was found to be due from two
executors to the testator's estate. One of the executors
was a creditor, and he claimed to be entitled to be paid the
amount of his debt out of the balance found due from
the two.

Lord LANGDALE, on coming into Court this morning gave
judgment, and said the reasons•on which the right of one
executor to retain his ow•n debt out of the testator's estate
in his hands were founded, were applicable to the case its
which the assets were in the hands of both, and the debt
due to one only. One, therefore, could not sue the other.
and each had a right to pay off or release the debt ; and
supposing the balance was in the power of the two jointly,
the executor, who was not a creditor, could not dispose of
the balance without the concurrence of his co-executor, the
creditor. His Lordship after going through the authorities
that had been cited, thought there was a right of retainer by
one executor out of the balance due to the two.

THE NEW PARLIAMENT.-One of the most in-
teresting and useful characteristics of Mr. Burke's " His-
tory of the Landed Gentry," of which the 14th Part is
just published, consists in the information it furnishes con-
cerning the various individuals who compose the body of
our representatives in Parliament. For an adequate idea
of their fortunes, family connexions, interests, public ser-
vices, principles, influence, &c., Mr. Burke's publication
may be consulted with especial advantage at this opening
period of the Parliamentary Session.
Yesterday afternoon, between three and four o'clock,
a gentleman of the name of Lucas, residing in Grove-street,
Park-street, Camden-town, procured a razor, with which he
inflicted a frightful wound in his throat in the back parlour.
The blood flowed copiously from the wound, which led
to the discovery of the rash act. Surgical assistance was
promptly procured and the wound sewed up, but, from its
extent, he was immediately conveyed to the new North
London Hospital, in Upper Govrer-street, where every skill
was used to recover him, but all endeavours were unavail-
ing, and death shortly terminated his sufferings.
Yesterday morning, about 7 o'clock, the workmen
employed in repairing Blackfriars Bridge, discovered in
one of the dams the body of a youth about ten years
of age. His dress was respectable, but no paper was
found on him that would discover who he was.
The master, court of assistants, warden, deputy
wardens, and livery of the Stationers' Company, met yes-
terday to celebrate their venison feast, and a more jovial
assembly we scarcely ever remember on any similar occa- '
sion• Soon after the cloth was removed, the worthy
Chairman (Mr. Wm. Barron) proposed the " Health of
the Queen," which was responded to enthusiastically ;
the healths of the other branches of the Royal Family,
were received with proper respect, and when a similar com-
pliment was paid to her Majesty's Ministers, the applause
and good feeling which accompanied it was truly gratifying
to the feelings of all present. The company was enter-
tained during the day with the combined efforts of Messrs.
Stansbury, Robinson, Paul Bedford, &c. The master men-
tioned that the band had improperly broken their engage-
ment, and quitted the hall before the stated time, but when
he added that royal authority had occasioned their depar-
ture every one was inclined to bend to its necessity.
The Antwerp Companv's steam-packet Princess
Victoria, Capt. John Briton, arrived yesterday (Thurs-
day) morning off the Tower, from Antwerp. This splen-
did and powerful ship made her passage in 20 hours.

CORONERS' INQUESTS.

DISTRESSING ACCIDENT.—CAUTION TO i\loTnEns.—
YeAerday an inquLst was held at the George the Fourth,
Wilmington-square, Pentonville, on the body of Emily
Jo:lan, an infant two months old, who was accidentally suf-
focated by being overlain by the mother. The jury were
some time considering whether the child was overlain by the
mother, or died. by convulsions ; but eventually they were of,
the former opinion, and returned a Terdiet—" Accidentally
suffocated."

Anotherinquest was held at the same time on the body
of Mrs. Ann 111‘Donald, aged Forty-three, who died from the
aWfuliy sudden rupture of a vessel in the region of the heart.
Verdict—" Died by the visitation of Gad."

His Majesty the King of \Virtemberg has taken the
suite of state apartments at the Clarendon Hotel, during
his sojourn in town. Previous to his embarkation for Eng-
land his Majesty paid a visit to the King of Holland at the
Hague, and on his return to the capital of his dominions,
at Stutgardt, he will visit the King of Prussia at Berlin.
The King is maternally related to the Royal Family of
Great Britain through th© marriage of his father, the late
King Frederick Charles William the First, with her Royal
highness the Princess Charlotte Augusta Matilda, Prin-
cess Royal of England, eldest daughter of King George
II who was the second wife of King Frederick. His
Majesty is in his 56th year, and is brother-in-law to the
Emperor of Russia, having married his Imperial Majesty's
sister the Grand Duchess of Oldenburg. The King has
come over from Germany expressly. it is understood, to
congratulate her Majesty Queen Victoria, personally on
her accession, instead of sending a special mission. 'ViB-
count Palmerston, Baron de Gersdorff, Sir Edward
bro:ve, minister at the Hague, the Earl of Albemarle, M.
Dedel, LildV Murray, and Miss Adderley, and Prince
Ernest of Hesse Philipsthall paid their respects yesterday
to the King, who is attended by Count Mandel, the Wit.-
temberg minister,-and two noblemen of his household, and
a secretary. Her Majesty will give a sumptuous banquet
to the Kin.. this evening at Buckingham Palace; having
been introduced to the Queen and her illustrious mother
yesterday.

We earnestly recommend this volume to the attention of all
persons: those who are unfortunatety afflicted with any of the dis-
eases of which it treats will find how they may obtain relief, without
the uncertainty attending on operation, and with comparatively
little pain ; while those whom Providence has spared so dreadfal a
visitation may learn how to avoid such distressing complaints.
* 4 It abounds with interesting cases, which are
attested by thepetients themselves ; who, under Mr. Van But hell's
ears, have been restored to health, when every other treatment had
failed."—West Kent Guardian.
" This volume presents to us a number of illustrations of his sin-
gular success under circumstances that would have induced despair
in any professor of less mastery, or less accustomed to accomplish
cures where cures seem impossible. The statements here made are
most convincing, and place beyond doubt the superiority of the treat-
ment to which they refer."—Court Journal.

THE MARKETS-(THIS DAY

CORN EXCHANGE.
There has been a good arrival of Wheat and Flour this
week, a small quantity of Barley and Oats, and a good many
vessels from foreign ports with Wheat and Oats. The
weather continuing very favourable keeps the Wheat trade
very dull, and Monday's prices cannot be obtained. Barley,
beans, and Pease, are unaltered. Oats have experienced a
dull sale and are rather lower. Flour remains as last reported
with little doing.

DREADFUL SHIPWRECKS.

LOSS of TWO BUNDIIED LIVES.—The JANI
hnd MARGARET, and The GLASGOW.
The Jane and Margaret, Ilaker, for New York, having
on board about 200 steerage passengers, besides several cabin
passengers, including ladies, left Liverpool by the morning
tide, on the Gth inst. She was a stout vessel, built in British.
America, and considered in every respect a desirable convey-
ance. Yesterday the Captain of the Wakefield, a smal
schooner from Charleston, arrived here, and states that or
the 14th inst., while bearing N. W. by N., about twenty mile!
from Wicklow, in Ireland, he passed the wreck of an Ame-
rican vessel, about 500 tons burden, the mainmast broken or
the deck, the mainyard laying across the deck, and the vesse
herself completely shattered. There was no one on board.
He saw a large quantity of pillows, beds, and bedding floating
on the water. He picked up a quantity of the lower decl
planks, and part of the cross-trees attached to the upper
part of the gallows, painted yellow, about eight feet long.
He also picked up a trunk, with brass letters engraven on it
and a deal box, marked " E" (in a diamond), " 683," toge.
ther with several other articles, which had floated from di(
wreck. The box bearing the above mark and numbers bac
been shipped by Messrs. Wood, Kurtz, and Co., of Liven
pool, on board of the Jane and Margaret, with a quan
tity of others. The portions of the wreck which have beer
picked up have also been identified as belonging to the unfor
tunate vessel ; and it is to be feared that out of the whole pas
songers and crew which left Liverpool on board of her only ;
few days previously, not one has been left to record the histor:
of their sufferings. This melancholy conclusion derives addi
tional strength from the fact that, had any one escaped fror
the wreck, intelligence would have been made to some of th,
various agents for Lloyds stationed along the Irish coast, bu
that establishment hero has received no intimation of the kind
and is compelled reluctantly to believe that the unfortunat,
200 souls who embarked on board of the Jane and Margare
have found a watery grave.
The other calamity, though less fatal as regards numbers, is
nevertheless, sufficiently melancholy—the loss of the Glasgou
a fine-built American vessel, with great capabilities for aiiling
and a regular trader between this port and' Liverpool. Th
Glasgow's fate is detailed in the following communication frog
Wexford, dated Wednesday last :

" I have to inform you that at eight o'clock, A. If., this day
the ship Glasgow, W. J. Robinson, master, with a general
cargo and passengers, for New York, struck near Taskar Rock
and after the master and some of the passengers were take]
out of her by a Wexford schooner, she sunk in twenty-fiv,
fathoms of water, when about ten lives were lost."

UNIVERSITY INTELLIGENCE.

DUREIM, JUNE 22.--We lately reported the proceedings
in Convocation, at the reception of the Royal Charter granted
to the University; and last week inserted the Class Paper of
the Examination for the degree of M. A. But we think it
desirable to give under one view the degrees conferred, and
the results of the final examination for the degree of B. A., of
the examination for the degree of M.A., and of the annual
Theological examination, which has just terminated.

•
At a -Convocation, holden June 8, when the Charter was read
and received, the following degrees were conferred under the
sanction of the Charter :

Bachelors of Arts.

Cundill, John; Pratt, Robert Forster;- Raymond, John
Mayne St. Clere ; Hick, James Watson; Errington, Ralph ;
Skinner, James ; Hills, George ; Watson, William Thomas ;
Garnett, Thomas ; Gibson, John ; .Harrison, Charles Saw-
kins ; Bennett, John ; Robinson, Ralph; Thompson, Francis.
The final examination for the degree of B. A., the exami-
nation for the degree of M. A., and the final Theological ex-
amination, took place at the conclusion of the Easter Term.
The following is the result of the examination :

EASTER TERM, 1837.

PIGEON SHOOTING.

There were two very good matches yesterday at the Red
House for 201., the first between Messrs Toby and Edwards,
and the second between Messrs. Grattidge and Bevor. The
affair fell short of attraction ; in fact it had been kept too
secret to effect anything like a full attendance. The first
was at twenty-one yards' rise, two traps, double barrels, both
allowed to be discharged. Mr. Toby killed six, his adversary
three. Mr. Grattidge won the next, killing four, and his ad-
versary two, the latter was at thirty yards.

THAMES ROYAL YAeirr CLUB.—The great above-bridge
match, amongst the yachts belonging to this distinguished
club, is postponed in consequence of the demise of their dis-
tinguished Patron (his late Majesty).
