CRUEL Itoannnv.—Henry Moore, aged 20, and described
as a labourer of Hind-street, Poplar, who is well known to
the police as a t• uter 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 peach 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 dace, Poplar. Taylor waited 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. Woolrych, 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 hag, since identified by Taylor, to the shop at the
same tine.
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 be 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 r upplicd. Prime Dantsic 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
were steadily supported.

jetted to the clauses. (Laughter.) If election committee:a
were more strict, and followed up the law, the evil of shampetitions would be greatly mitigated. They would find it
very difficult to compel people to proceed with petitions, as
with ordinary prosecutions, against their will.
Mr. BOUVERIE supported the bill.
Mr. AYRTON doubted whether they would not do more'
harm than good in discouraging the presentation of petitions
against the validity of the return of members. If, unlike
ordinary prosecutions, which involved no costs, they cast
heavy responsibilities on petitioners against the return of

The evil to be guarded against was unduly interfere `g with
the right of the subject to petition that house. We re tho
bill to be passed in. its present state it would actually :`nter-
fere with the right of petition. The Election Petitions Act
of 1848 provided that sureties should be entered into by
one, two, three, or four persons to the extent of £1,0410
one or several sums, to prosecute petitions, and it provided:
that in the event of the withdrawal of petitions against re-
turns the cost of sitting members and all other parties should
be defrayed by the petitioners. The right hon. gentleman
pointed out several clauses of this bill that appeared to him
to require timentment at a future age, such as freeing peti
tioncrs who might be proved to have acted bona fide from
costs. He should t-upport the second reading.
Sei—.aut PIGOTT supported the bill, considering that;
it would not commit any injustice, but, on the contrary,,
would initiate a wholesome system of fair dealing
Sir W. MILES referred to the nefarious and recent case
of Lisburn in order to show the importance of election com-
mittees. With some alterations in the details of this
measure it would work well.
The bill was read a second time in order to be committed
on Wednesday next.

Uncovering of the Memorial of the Exhi-
bition of 1851.—This ray.

The ceremony of uncovering the memorial of the Great
Exhibition of 1851 was performed this afternoon in the
gardens of the Royal Horticultural Society, in the presence
of their Royal Highnesses the Prince and Princess of Wales
and the Royal Family.
The guests invited to take part in the ceremony com-
menced assembling shortly after one beneath the western
dome of the International Exhibition building, South Ken-
sington. Between two and three the scene presented was one
of great beauty and magnificence. Among those present were
the Duke of Buccleuch, Lord Overstone, Lord Eversley, ,
Mr. Cardwell, Sir J. Pakington, Sir M. ,Peto, Lord
Llanover, Col. Sykes, Lord Taunton, the Hon. B. Disraeli,

1862, the Corps Diplomatique, the Council of the Horti-
cultural Society.

The attendance of the company was brilliant in the ex-
reme, and the greatest interest was manifested by every one

present.
To enliven the long "wait" the council engaged several
of the most celebrated bands, and notwithstanding they dis-,
cussed most eloquent music, the hour of the royal party's
arrival was anxiously looked for. A few minutes
before four o'clock her Royal Highness the Duchess
of Cambridge arrived, and a few minutes after, pro-
eiely at four o'clock, their Royal Highnesses en-
tered the building amidst the cheers of the assembled
company, the united bands playing severally the National
Anthems of England and Denmark. The Executive
Committee of the Memorial Committee 'were then pre-
sented to their Royal Highnesses. His Grace the Duke of
Buccleuch introduced the principal members of the Hor-
ticultural Society, and then a flourish of trumpets was the
signal for the procession to move. It consisted of the fol-
lowing bodies, who took their places in the order
named, and four abreast.,

The Grenadier Guards' band headed the procession on
its starting from the western dome, and played until the
royal party ascended the gallery stairs in the Exhibition,
when the royal party entered the balcony which had been
erected facing the memorial, and overlooking the whole of
the splendid gardens.
When all had taken their places, Mr. Godwin presented
his Royal Highness with an address suitable to the occa-
sion, and his Royal Highness having said a few words in
reply, the order was given to uncover the memorial, and
the canvass was removed amidst a salute from the Royal
Artillery, which had been placed at the service of the society
by the Duke of Cambridge.
The procession then descended from the balcony and
entered the garden through the centre arch, turning to the
left. The united Guards' bands played during the passing
of the procession the "Prince of Wales' March," ceasing
when the Royal party mounted the steps loading out of
the ante-garden.
The procession next proceeded to the western side of the
garden, where their Highnesses paused for a short time to
look at the memorial and garden, and having gone through
the whole of the gardens returned to their carriages, and
left the building amidst the same enthusiasm that greeted
their arrival.
The memorial stands on the stone basement erected to
receive it by the Horticultural Society, at the head of the
lake, and facing the conservatory.
